The elderly population is rapidly increasing in South Korea, and interest in food development considering the Sasang constitution theory from oriental medicine and balanced nutrition is increasing. We developed the oriental medicinal porridges based on the Sasang constitution for the elderly. By Sasang constitutional medicine, Taeyangin has a large lung and small liver, and Soyangin has a large stomach and small kidney. Taeeumin has a small lung and large liver, and Soeumin has a small stomach and a large kidney. In this study, proper oriental medicine and food ingredients were identified, and a total of 12 oriental medicinal porridges were developed for 3 items by 4 Sasang constitution types. A single portion was developed based on about 600±66kcal, and the food ingredients were chopped. After cooking the menu developed based on the Sasang constitution, a sensory test was conducted. Five items, such as taste, appearance, aroma, texture, and overall preference, were evaluated on a 7-point scale. Sewage omegaenggul porridge among porridges for Taeyangin had the highest overall acceptance (6.17±0.7 points). Sukjihwang abalone black sesame porridge for Soyangin had the highest score(5.83±0.9 points). Sanyakyulmu hwangtae porridge for Taeeumin had the highest score(5.90±0.6 points). Ginseng chicken curry porridge among porridges for Soeumin had the highest overall preference in taste, appearance, aroma, texture, and overall acceptability (6.53±0.7 points). A limitation of this study was that the clinical trial could not be conducted on the elderly classified as Sasang constitution. In the future, the elderly will be able to have oriental medicinal foods according to the classification of Sasang constitution.

This study focuses on testing the validity of dimensions of restaurants’ menu prices. In addition, the effect of demographic variables on the perception of each price dimension was investigated. The subjects were people living in the capital region who have, at least on occasion, gone to family restaurants. The data were collected by self-administered questionnaires and analyzed by factor analysis, reliability analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and the ANOVA t-test. The results were that consumers’ perception of restaurant menu prices is not uni-dimensional, but has six dimensions: price-price schema, pricequality schema, value consciousness, low price proneness, price mavenism, sales proneness. Demographic variables partially affect the consumers’ perception of each menu price dimension. The result of the t-test examining dimensions of price according to the demographic characteristic was that females have a higher sales proneness than males. The t-test result according to marriage indicated that married people were higher in price-price schema and quality proneness than unmarrieds. ANOVA according to age indicated that people between ages of 20 to 29 have a higher quality proneness than those of other ages.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether foodservice brand language localization affects consumer attitudes in terms of similar brand image recognition with an original brand. Many global foodservice companies have tried to modify their own brand identity according to local situations in order to attract more consumers. According to this study's results, consumers who similarly recognized both the original brand image and localization brand image tended to have greater purchase intention than those who did not recognize them similarly. In addition, when the original brand identity was changed to the local language, consumers more similarly conceived the original brand image and localization. And for local store marketing, foodservice companies should have a thorough marketing research plan since there can be difference results according to brand name recognition gaps or demographic characteristics. Original brand image similarity recognition by consumers affected their attitudes. In other words, the group that similarly recognized both the original brand company image and the localization brand company image tended to have greater purchase intention. Because brand language plays an important role in consumer attitudes with respect to recognizing a brand and distinguishing another brand, this study suggests that franchise foodservice companies have a local store marketing plan.

Throughout history, tableware has attained an important position in human culture, and historical eras are clearly reflected in the shape of tableware items, which are tied to the cultural background of foods. In particular, the distinctive qualities of foods within a food-culture, such as the means for cooking, storing, or eating, have impacted the usage and shape of tableware along with the food behaviors of individuals. Korea, China, and Japan have all played important roles in producing limitless amounts of high quality porcelain products and take pride in being leaders of the world's porcelain production industry. Based on their natural geographical proximity and political and cultural exchanges, these three countries have long influenced one another not only in terms of technical concepts but also in improving quality within the tableware industry. Thus, by comparing Korea, China, and Japan's evolutionary interdependable variance with regard to their tableware, food-culture, and food-behavior, one can provide information on the historical stream and cultural exchanges relevant to china and porcelain. Ultimately, through the examination of tableware, the conclusions of this conceptual study offer researchers a deeper understanding of the historical stance of food-culture and contribute new and useful information for the future.

만성질환노인, 거동불능 노인과 치매노인 등 장기요양보호노인이 증가하고 있다(변, 1997). 특히 치매전문요양시설의 증가와 함께 이곳에 서 치매를 위한 다양한 치료와 서비스치료적인 환경과 활동요법이 의료인의 관심을 끌고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 시설노인의 시지각협응 운 동과 기민성을 향상시키고자 원예활동 프로그램을 실시하였다. 본 연구는 D시 장기요양시설 노인 13명(83±6.5세)을 대상으로 2017년 3 월 9일부터 5월 04일까지 주 2회씩 총 15회기를 실시하였다. 프로그램은 다양한 화색의 꽃을 지정된 공간에 장식하게 하였다. 평가도구는 미네소타 맨손 기민성 테스트(Minnesota Manual Dexterity Test), 핀치검사(Pinch gauge)를 원예활동 실시 전과 후에 측정하였으며 측정 자료는 IBM SPSS 19.0 Program을 이용하여 Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test로 분석하였으며 연구결과는 다음과 같다 시지각협응력은 사전 7.3±3.9점에서 실시 후 8.5±3.4점으로 증가하여 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p=0.021). 손기능 검사는 오른손은 사전 9.0±2.5(lb)에 서 사후 9.4±3.1(lb)로(P=0.334) 왼손은 사전 8.6±2.5(lb)에서 사후 9.2±2.8(lb)로(P=0.208) 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 지정된 공간 속에 꽃꽂이를 실시한 결과 꽃꽂이는 다양한 작업으로 상지의 움직임과 손의 정교한 작업 및 눈-손 협응력을 요구하기 때문에 재활적인 측 면에서 매우 휼륭한 치료 수단(이, 2006)이라는 내용과 일치된 결과를 얻었다. 따라서 다양한 꽃꽂이 원예활동 프로그램을 노인에게 적용 한다면 노인들의 정서적인 안정은 물론 전문적인 재활치료의 수단으로도 이용될 수 있다고 판단한다.

배술 제조 과정 중 pH, 산도, 에탄올 및 당도의 변화와 기호도를 조사하고 배 원료와 발효 배술의 유리아미노산, 유기산 및 페놀성 성분 등을 분석하였다. 배술의 관능을 개선하기 위하여 생강 첨가량을 달리하여 배술을 제조하였을 때 생강 첨가량에 따른 pH와 산도는 차이가 없었다. 에탄올 함량은 무 첨가구에 비하여 생강 0.1% 첨가구가 13%로 높게 나타났으며 맛, 색 및, 향의 관능검사는 생강 0.2% 첨가구에서 가장 높았다. 배술을 55, 6
