The participants were 1,099 middle and high school students in Chungnam-do. Instruments were the Satisfaction with Life Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, Parent-Adolescent Communication Inventory, the School Life Satisfaction Scale, and Social-Cultural Satisfaction Scale. Data analysis involved the use of descriptive statistics, t- and F-tests, Duncan's multiple range test, product-moment correlations, multiple regression, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, and factor analysis. Results were as follows: Firstly, middle school students showed the highest levels of life satisfaction, and vocational high school students reported the lowest levels. Also, life satisfaction was inversely related to school grades. Secondly, for all the students, life satisfaction was positive correlated with self-esteem, open communication with parents, school life satisfaction, and social-cultural satisfaction. Lastly, open communication with parents and overall satisfaction with life at school explained more of the variance in adolescent life satisfaction than any other factors.

This study develops a scale for consumer clothing satisfaction based on Lee et al. 's (2002) five stages of the consumer life cycle (acquisition, possession, consumption, maintenance, and disposal). Data were gathered by surveying college students using convenience sampling, and 419 questionnaires were used in the statistical analysis. In analyzing the data, an exploratory factor analysis and a confirmatory factor analysis using a structural equation modeling were conducted. The proposed scale, which identified various sources of satisfaction and dissatisfaction associated with the 5 consumption cycles of clothing, suggests some guidelines for marketers in enhancing consumer clothing satisfaction across consumption stages. The model test for the scale also identified that consumption satisfaction had the greatest effect on consumer clothing satisfaction showing the strongest loading and squared multiple correlation.

본 연구는 65세에서 80세 사이의 연령대에 있는 서울/경기지역 노인복지센터에 참여하는 217명의 한국 노인들을 대상으로 이들의 사회활동, 종교적 경험, 영성 수행 등이 노인 우울증 및 삶의 만족에 미치는 영향을 탐구하기 위하여 수행되었다. 종교 및 영성에 관련된 변수는 일상적 영성 경험, 가치관, 관용, 개인의 종교 활동, 종교 및 영적 수양, 종교적 지지 등 여섯 가지 영역으로 나뉘어 측정되었다. 사회활동과 종교 및 영성을 측정하기 위하여 사회활동척도 (Social Activities Scale)와 종교/영성 다중체계 척도 (Brief Multidimensional Measure of Religiosity/Spirituality)를 사용하였으며, 우울증 측정을 위해서는 노인우울척도(Geriatric Depression Scale)를 적용하는 동시에 삶의 만족도 측정은 삶의 만족척도 (satisfaction with Life Scale)를 사용하였다. 인구학적 변인들을 통제한 후 분석한 연구결과, 높은 수준의 종교 및 영적 수양, 사회활동, 높은 소득수준, 낮은 수준의 일상적 영성 경험이 노인들의 우울증 발생에 낮게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 여성일수록, 고령일수록, 사회활동이 낮을수록 삶의 만족도는 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 추후 연구에 대한 제언 및 사회복지 실천에 대한 함의를 논하였다.

Purpose: This study was to investigate the factors influencing quality of life and difference of quality of life in a postmenopausal group compared to premenopausal women. Method: The subjects consisted of 213 women from 40 to 64 years old. The data were collected from June 1, 2003 to June 31, 2004 using structured questionnaires which included questions relating to demographic and obstetric background and 4 scales(climacteric symptoms scale, marital satisfaction scale, sex-role attitude scale, quality of life scale). Result: Comparing pre- and postmenopausal women, significant statistical differences were demonstrated in climacteric symptoms and sex-role attitude. However, quality of life was not different between pre- and postmenopausal women. In premenopausal women, marital satisfaction($32.7\%$) and educational level($8.0\%$) were significant predictors to explain quality of life. Marital satisfaction($12.9\%$) was significant predictor to explain quality of life in postmenopausal women. Conclusion: No difference of quality in life between pre- and postmenopausal women provides information for changing traditional approaches of menopause according to physiological changes as illness. In addition the study showed that it is necessary to use marital satisfaction information when developing nursing interventions to promote the quality of life.
