본 연구는 노인들의 건강수준에 영향을 미치는 수도권과 비수도권의 영향력 검증과, 수도권과 비수도권의 격차를 추정 및 비교하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이러한 목적을 달성하기 위해 "2010 고령화연구패널 제3차 기본조사"의 원자료 중 65세 이상 노인 4,714명을 분석대상으로 OLS 회귀분석, Oaxaca의 격차분해 방법을 사용하였다. 연구 주요결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 수도권 노인들이 비수도권에 거주하는 노인들보다 건강이 더 좋은 것으로 나타났다(${\beta}=-.044$, p<.01). 둘째, 수도권과 비수도권 지역 격차의 실제적 영향을 파악하기 위해 '지역'효과만을 분해하여 살펴본 결과 비수도권에 거주하는 노인들이 수도권에 거주하는 노인들보다 건강이 좋지 않은 것으로 나타나 노인들의 건강 격차가 거주지역 특성에 의해서도 비롯되고 있음을 확인하였다(비수도권-수도권: 223.92, 109.50%; 수도권-비수도권: -267.18, 130.66%). 이러한 연구결과를 통해 실천적, 정책적 함의 및 향후 연구 방향에 대해 제언하였다.

This study aimed to determine the association between household types and healthy dietary practices among Korean adults. A cross-sectional analysis was performed using nationwide data on 23,488 participants from the 2017-2021 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). Based on self-reported data, the participant household types were classified into single- and multi-person households. The adjusted odds ratios (AORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for healthy dietary practices according to household types were calculated by applying multivariable logistic regression analysis after adjusting for confounders. Of total, 11.21% and 88.79% were single- and multi-person households, respectively. Compared with individuals living in multi-person households, those in single-person households had lower odds of adhering to healthy dietary practices (AOR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.79-0.98) and consuming adequate saturated fatty acids (<7% of energy) (AOR: 0.78, 95% CI: 0.69-0.88). In addition, men and individuals aged ≥65 years living in single-person households exhibited lower odds of consuming adequate saturated fatty acids and ≥500 g of fruit and vegetables per day than those in multi-person households. Single-person households often find it a challenge to practice a healthy diet. Hence, nutritional policies and educational support that help individuals living alone consume healthier diets are warranted.

기후변화로 인한 도시열환경 악화, 온열질환자 발생은 중요한 사회 문제 중 하나로 대두되었다. 이에 폭염 등의 기후변화에 관한 연구가 활발해졌으나 주로 기후요소에 집중되고 있다. 그러나 도시열섬현상은 여름철 폭염을 가속화시키며, 도시지역에서의 온열질환자가 급증하는 추세로 미루어 도시의 환경의 영향을 짐작할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 서울시와 경기도를 대상으로 도시지역의 물리적·사회적 특성이 온열질환자에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석을 위해 본 연구에서는 음이항회귀분석을 활용하였다. 분석 결과, 토지이용현황 중 주요열에너지방출원인 주거·상업·공업시설 연면적의 비율은 통계적으로 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났지만, 도로면적과 녹지면적은 각각 양과 음의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 사회적 특성 변수에 포함된 인구밀도와 65세 이상 인구 비율, 독거노인 비율, 기초생활수급자 비율은 모두 유의한 것으로 나타났는데, 독거노인 비율과 인구밀도 비율만 음의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 연구의 결과는 지역별 온열질환자와 관련한 도시 정책적 대안을 마련하는데 활용할 수 있다.

인구의 고령화로 인해 노인 인구가 늘어나고, 핵가족화가 빠르게 진행되고 있다. 현재 AI스피커는 일상적으로 사람과 사람 간에 이루어지는 대화보다는 사용자의 명령어에 반응하는 형태이다. 독거노인이 먼저 얘기를 하지 않으면 AI스피커의 사용성은 떨어지게 된다. 본 논문에서는 고령자 맞춤 능동적 상호작용의 AI스피커 개발내용에 대해 기술한다. 본 스피커는 독거노인의 움직임과 주변 상황을 파악하여 능동적으로 말을 걸어줄 수 있으며, 대화의 내용에 맞는 감정표현을 디스플레이 시킬 수 있다. 이를 통해 사용자는 AI스피커를 의인화하게 되어 친근감을 느낄 수 있고 감성 대화가 가능해짐에 따라 외로움을 달랠 수 있는 긍정적인 역할을 할 것으로 기대한다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare between performance and requirements of visiting nursing care in long-term care insurance using the OMAHA system. Methods: The subjects were 72 nurses who had worked in a visiting nursing care center in long-term care insurance. Data were collected from December 5, 2016 to January 31, 2017 using self-recorded questionnaires. The collected data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and paired t-tests. Results: Four dimensions of the OMAHA system showed statistically significant differences between performance and requirements of visiting nursing care in long-term care insurance. The requirements of visiting nursing care were higher than was performance on all 40 items of the OMAHA system. The greatest difference was in environmental domain and then the psychosocial domain. Conclusion: Based on the results, we found that the environmental and psychosocial domains were the largest gap areas. Therefore, with the reality of elderly people living alone and the increase in elderly couples, active intervention connected with the community is needed in residential areas. Further, we suggest that the OMAHA system can be utilized as an integrated conceptual framework for developing and enhancing visiting nursing care in long-term care insurance.

Purposes: The study aimed at examining the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the shift of online consumer purchasing behavior and whether the new behaviors would be maintained after the epidemic season. The study also aims to investigate how online customers change based on perceived risks. Research design and Methodology: The study investigated purchasing behavior of the same 377 online Vietnamese consumers during two periods: (1) during the period of social distancing and (2) one and half year after that, allowing data to be collected in real time, so that consumers do not have to recall their behavior. Results: Purchasing behavior appeared to be more influenced by gender, age and household size. Aged consumers are more concerned about risks than those in the younger group, who only worry about the risks during the pandemic. Consumers in households with two or more people are more concerned about the risks than those living alone. Female appeared to be more influential in both during and after pandemic than male. Conclusions: The findings contribute to clarify shift of online consumer purchasing behavior, which helps business to develop effective marketing strategies and enhance their presence in the e-commerce sector.

Purpose: This descriptive study aims to analyze the effects of the satisfaction level in the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, conflicts between them, acculturative stress and stress coping strategies on elderly depression in multi-cultural families. Methods: The survey was conducted on 89 mothers-in-law, aged 65 or older, in multi-cultural families with a foreign daughter-in-law. Data were collected through structured questionnaires, and then were used to conduct t-test, ANOVA, correlation and multiple regression analyses using the statistical program SPSS 21.0. Results: This study found several factors contributing to depression of mothers-in-law in multi-cultural families. Those factors include living alone without a spouse, poor health, a high level of perceived discrimination and a passive reaction in terms of stress coping strategies. Conclusion: A sense of discrimination perceived by the mothers-in-law having a foreign daughter-in-law implies that the people around them and the community should make efforts to reject distorted perspectives and remove prejudice against foreign daughters-in-law. In addition, the mothers-in-law should receive education and training to use more active and positive stress coping strategies in a stressful situation with the foreign daughter-in-law.
