In this paper, to analyze the meaning of middle-aged men's economic activities, TEXTOM was used to analyze them. The data collection period is set from 2017 to 2019. Among the collected data, 100 refined words were converted into a matrix in which the degree of social connection was calculated, and the keyword network analysis was performed again with the NetDraw program. According to the study, middle-aged men put more meaning on their current work and family than their future retirement. Also, the related word commonly included in the top five for all three years was 'work'. Related words commonly included in the top 10 were 'old age', 'family', and 'work', and in 2018 and 2019, 'health' was included in the top 10. As a result of this, the middle-aged men living in the modern age are the generation who keep their families through economic activities and are increasingly interested in health and prepare for retirement. Therefore, policy support for stable economic activities is needed to improve the quality of life for middle-aged men. It is necessary to extend the retirement age, expand jobs and provide effective vocational training so that it can handle its role as the head of a family. In addition, measures should be taken to reduce the wage gap between highly skilled and low-skilled workers.

The data of the study were collected from 397 married, middle aged men and women from 40 years to 59 years-old by using self-administered questionnaire method. The results showed that gender role identity was different according to sex. In addition, women's perceived level of marital conflict was found to be significantly different according to their gender role identity, indicating that androgynous women reported the lowest level of marital conflict. However, men's gender role conflict was not related to their marital conflict. Furthermore, men's psychological adjustment level was not different according to their gender role identity, while women's psychological adjustment differed, indicating that androgynous women reported the lowest level of psychological adjustment and the undifferentiated women the highest level of psychological adjustment.

본 연구에서는 사이즈코리아의 제7차 인체측정조사 자료 중 40-59세 중년 남성의 직접 계측 데이터를 분석하여 전신 체형의 특성을 알아보고, 중년 남성의 전신 체형을 유형화하고자 하였다. 이를 통해 맞음새가 우수한 중년 남성의 의복패턴 제작에 필요한 기초자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 전신 계측자료는 SPSS Ver. 24.0 프로그램으로 분석하였다. 요인은 신체의 수평, 수직, 어깨관련, 앞중심길이, 다리굵기, 어깨처짐 등 6개 요인이 추출되었다. 중년 남성의 전신체형은 3개로 유형화되어 유형1은 둘레는 가늘고 너비는 좁으며, 높이는 낮고 앞중심길이는 짧으며 다리가 얇은 체형이다. 유형 2는 높이는 높고 앞중심길이는 길며, 둘레 및 너비는 보통으로 다리가 굵고 어깨가 처진 체형이다. 유형3은 둘레는 크고 너비는 넓으며 어깨도 넓은 체형으로 앞중심길이는 긴 편이지만 신체높이는 낮고 어깨가 처지지 않은 체형이다. 중년 남성은 복부의 돌출 및 지방축적에 따른 둘레와 두께 항목의 증가가 두드러지므로 이를 반영한 패턴 제작이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study is to measure middle aged men's bodies around the ages of thirty-five through filly-five, whose age-group undergoes drastic changes on their body shapes. Further, body shapes are grouped based on the measurements, and pattern making methods are presented in order to effectively make up for the undesirable body features of middle-aged men. In order to develop patterns fit for middle aged men's body shapes, the regression which reflects physical characteristics was applied for the experimental shirts pattern, instead of comparative patterns which applies the same equation. For the two body types classified above(Bend-forward Type and Lean-back Type), correlation among the factors necessary for pattern design was considered and the regression was formularized accordingly. To validate the regression, the same amount of ease as in the comparative patterns was applied to the chest girth, and reasonable ease to the armhole depth and neck girth. In this way, experimental shirts patterns fit for the body types were developed. After the modification through the wearing test, the experimental shirts pattern was completed as herein.

The present study analyzed data from the 3D measurement of the feet of men aged over 20 years residing in the capital region as part of the 6th Anthropometry of Size Korea. To analyze the characteristics of the foot shapes of young men aged 20~39 years and middle-aged/elderly men aged 40~69 years by age and by type, a cluster analysis was conducted using the factors derived through the factor analysis as independent variables. The results of the study that analyzed the characteristics of foot shapes by type according to differences in age were as follows. First, through the analysis of the characteristics of the foot shapes of young men by type, five factors were extracted, and the foot shapes were classified into three types: Type 1 (short and flat), Type 2 (thick), and Type 3 (long and wide). Second, through the analysis of the characteristics of the foot shapes of middle-aged/elderly men by type, six factors were extracted, and the foot shapes were classified into four types: Type 1 (short and regular), Type 2 (flat), Type 3 (thick), and Type 4 (long and regular).
