While motivated by religious aims, churches can play a role in social welfare for elders in local community.

본 연구에서는 청소년들의 종교활동이 대인관계와 자아존중감 및 자아탄력성에 영향을 미치는가를 규명하고자 한다. 이는 오늘날의 청소년들이 수능위주의 학습과 학교교육의 연장, 진로문제, 가치관의 변화로 인하여 청소년들의 역할이 더욱 복잡하고 다양해짐으로써 혼란과 갈등을 경험하고 부모의 기대로 인하여 많은 스트레스를 경험하는 등의 청소년기의 다양한 문제점이 종교활동을 통하여 고등학생시기를 원만하고 성공적으로 이끌어나가는 데 연구의 의의가 있다.

In Korea, a movement for forming intentional communities is gathering people's interests to improve individualistic living environment, and to create a humanistic lifestyle. However, it is difficult to say if its management is successful or not, because intentional community is just in the experimental stage in Korea. The purpose of this study is to identify actual condition of residents' participation in forming process, shared activities in their daily lives, residents' regulation, common facilities and its management in order to offer basic information for revitalization of intentional communities in Korea. 7 intentional communities including eco-friendly villages, religious communities and a cooperative housing community were collected as the study objects. Upon analysis, those communities were divided into two groups according to their purpose of establishment; "HC (Housing-life focused Community includes cooperative housing community and eco-friendly community)" and "IC (Ideology focused Community includes ideology community and religious community)" in order to identify difference in residents' participation between the two groups. In-dept interviews with representatives of 7 intentional communities by a structured questionnaire were used as study method. The findings of this study are as follows; In general, more active residents' participation is identified in ICs than in HCs. There is no common house, which is considered as essential in intentional community, in HCs, while it was facilitated in all ICs. Role of leader seems more important in ICs than in HCs. About the ownership of housing and land, private owned is common in HCs, while community owned is common in ICs. Shared activities and residents' regulations are evidently less in most HCs than in ICs. Furthermore, in order to run a community sustainable, it is crucial to encourage sense of community among residents, and developing common house and activity programs. Common house design, which can promote proactive residents' participation in shared activity should be studied fitted to Korean circumstances. Above all, proactive participation in the shared activities is one of the most important factors in intentional community.

본 연구는 종교유무 및 종교활동 참여수준이 노인의 삶의 만족도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지 확인하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 노동패널조사 20차 자료를 기반으로, 65세 이상 노인 3,261명을 대상으로 기술통계분석, 평균차이분석, 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 종교의 유무는 노인의 삶의 만족도에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 못했다. 둘째, 종교활동 참여수준은 노인의 삶의 만족도에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 종교활동에 적극적으로 참여하는 노인일수록 삶의 만족도가 높았다. 셋째, 종교유형별로 보면, 기독교 노인이 불교 노인에 비해 삶의 만족도가 통계적으로 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과를 근거로 함의를 도출하고 정책적 제언을 실시하였다.

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.

Background: The purpose of this study was to identify the association between participation in social activities and mortality rates for those aged 45 aged and older in Korea. Methods: In this study, the 1st to 6th Korea Longitude Study of Aging was used to analyze 10,217 people excluding missing values among middle and old age groups aged 45 or older. The scope of social activities was classified into "religious gatherings," "religious gatherings," "leisure/cultural/sports-related organizations," and "clubs/hometowns/religious associations," and analyzed using a chi-square test and Cox proportional risk model. Results: In the case of non-participating groups in religious activities, the mortality rate was 1.24 times higher (hazard ratio [HR], 1.24; p=0.000) than those of the participating group. The non-participating group of social gatherings had a 1.27 times higher mortality rate (HR, 1.27; p<0.0001) than the participating group. In addition, the mortality rate of non-participating groups related to leisure/cultural/sports was 1.79 times higher (HR, 1.79; p=0.000). The mortality rate of the group that did not participate in the alumni association/festival/folklore society was 1.51 times higher than that of the participating group (HR, 1.51; p<0.0001). As a result of correcting the control variable to analyze the relationship between the number of participants in social activities and the mortality rate, the mortality rate of the group participating in one or less social activities was 2.26 times higher (HR, 2.26; p<0.0001) compared to the four or more social activity participating groups, and the mortality rate of the 1-3 social activities was 1.64 times higher (HR, 1.64; p<0.0001). Conclusion: As a result of the study, it was found that participation in social activities of the middle-aged and elderly groups was effective in reducing mortality, and in particular, it was found that there was a strong relationship with mortality in less than one social activity group. Therefore, it is intended to provide an academic basis for lowering the mortality rate of the group in line with the continuous improvement of domestic social activity participation conditions, and through this, this study can be expected to serve as a policy and institutional basis for lowering the mortality rate of the group.

Artemisia vulgaris, one of the most religious plants in Nepal, is used in the treatment of various ailments. In this study, antioxidative activity of essential oil from A. vulgaris was evaluated, using different in vitro methods and antimicrobial activity by disc diffusion method against skin disease microorganisms such as Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Streptococcus pyogenes, Candida albicans and Propionibacterium acnes. The essential oil exhibited a concentration-dependent antioxidant activity. It showed strong metal chelating activity with low reducing and antioxidant power. However, gradual increase in radical scavenging activity was obtained with increasing concentration and reaction time. It also possessed a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity and notable susceptibility was observed against S. pyogenes and P. acnes.
