본 연구에서는 문화예술적 경험이 노인생활만족도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 개인 창의적 특성의 매개효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 노인 144명을 대상으로 요인분석, 기술통계, 회귀분석 기법을 활용하여 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 문화예술적 경험과 노인생활만족도, 개인 창의적 특성은 서로 정적인 상관관계를 맺고 있다. 둘째, 문화예술적 경험 하위요인 창작경험과 감상경험은 노인생활만족도에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 셋째, 창작경험과 감상경험은 매개변인인 개인 창의적 특성에 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다. 넷째, 개인 창의적 특성은 문화예술적 경험과 노인생활만족도의 영향관계에서 부분 매개효과를 보였다. 따라서 문화예술적 경험과 개인 창의적 특성은 노인생활만족도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 요인이며, 개인 창의적 특성은 문화예술적 경험을 통해 증진될 수 있다. 또한 개인 창의적 특성이 문화예술적 경험을 통해 증진될 경우 노인생활만족도에도 긍정적 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Rheumatoid Arthritis(RA), a chronic and systemic inflammatory disorder, is characterized by joint pain, swelling and stiffness. Patients with RA suffer from joint pain and overall pain. The painful and disabling consequences of RA are accompanied by a variety of affective, cognitive, and behavioral changes. The purpose of this paper was to explore and describe the life experiences of RA patients by eliciting verbal description of their experiences. Participants were nine persons who were diagnosed with RA, and had had it for more than six months. They were asked open ended and descriptive questions in order for them to talk about their experiences in their on terms. Interviews were tape recorded and transcribed verbatim. The transcripts were analyzed by Colaizzi method. From the protocols, 213 significant statements about life experience were organized into 83 formulating meanings which were then grouped into five theme clusters. The major themes that emgerged from the analysis were' Emotional Disturbances', 'Trying to Adapt to the Progress of Disease', 'Progress of Treatment'. 'Change of Role Performances', 'Experiences related to Family'. The result of this study showed that RA patients and families need nursing care based on a deep understanding of their lived experiences in everyday life. Nurses and other health workers must develop rehabilitation programs that focus on the pain control, functional independence and psychosocial factors.

Purpose: While there exist a good number of studies on Korean nurses who were dispatched to Germany in 1960s and 1970s in sociological or labor economic perspectives, there have been few studies on their experiences from a nursing perspective. The purpose of this study is to recapture their lives and experiences from a nursing point of view. Methods: This paper adopts an Agar's ethnographic approach which is more suitable to investigate personal qualitative experiences of those Korean nurses. The data were collected from group discussion and individual interview, and field observation with 10 dispatched Korean nurses. Results: The experiences of those dispatched nurses to Germany can be summarized into three themes: challenging to life, embracing new life, and giving a meaning to life. Challenging to life involved 'hope and anxiety', and embracing new life was reflected by 'wonderment and envy' and 'loneliness and sorrow'. Lastly, they took pride in their contributions to their mother country and also felt something lacking that they had not been properly evaluated. Conclusion: By rediscovering their lives and experiences from a nursing perspective, this study argues for more future studies to reexamine their impact and contribution to the nursing field in Korea.

Data analysis method was based on Colaizzi's approach. Results: The study results showed that experiences of patients with Hansen's disease consisted of 14 themes and six theme clusters: 1) Bad disease approaching as fate; 2) Family breakup and far from the village; 3) New life in Sorok Island Hospital; 4) Treatment of Hansen's disease and disability; 5) Life in the disease community; 6) Comfort and hope of life. Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that health care professionals should pay attention to patients with Hansen's disease not only to reduce their physical and psychological suffering, but also to help the community and public culture to reduce the social stigma surrounding this disease and causing suffering for the patients. The results of the present study can help us to have a better understanding of various aspects of patients' lived experiences.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality of life related to fall experiences in chronic stroke patients. METHODS: This cross-sectional study included 117 patients with stroke from 3 hospitals in D metropolitan city. General characteristics, including fall experiences and quality of life, were assessed through a face-to-face interviews conducted in a quiet place using a questionnaire. Measurement of quality of life in stroke patients was conducted using the Korean Stroke Specific Quality of Life Scale (SS-QOL). To identify the SS-QOL items related to fall experiences, the items of the SS-QOL were considered as independent variables, and the variables that were significantly different according to fall experiences were identified using a univariate analysis. A binary logistic regression was then performed using fall experiences as the independent variable. RESULTS: According to the univariate analysis, self help activities, social role, and upper extremity function were significantly lower in the fall group than that in the non-fall group (p<.05). The findings of the binary logistic regression confirmed that social roles and upper extremity function were the SS-QOL items that were related to fall experience in chronic stroke patients. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that social roles and upper extremity function may be risk factors for fall experience in patients with chronic stroke.

본 연구의 목적은 후기노인들의 삶에 나타난 일제강점기와 6.25전쟁에 대한 '개인적인 역사경험'이 어떠한 '현재성'이 있는지 생애사적 맥락에서 '재구성'하는 데에 있다. 이를 위해 Sch$\ddot{u}$tze의 자료수집 방법에 따라 실시한 '생애사적-내러티브 인터뷰' 9개를 Rosenthal의 '내러티브식-생애사 인터뷰 분석'방법에 따라 분석하였다. 그 결과, 개인적인 역사경험의 현재성은 주로 경험방식에 따른 차이를 보임을 알 수 있었다. 즉 '친일경험'으로서의 일제강점기에 대한 직접적인 역사경험과 '국군생활'로서의 6.25전쟁에 대한 직접적인 역사경험은 '개별화된 현재성'이 있는 반면, '남편의 역사적 죽음'으로 표출된 일제강점기나 6.25전쟁에 대한 간접적인 역사경험은 '잠재된 현재성'이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과에 근거해 개인적인 역사경험의 현재성에 대한 '이해'를 바탕으로 하는 노인복지실천을 위한 제언을 하였다.
