This study was conducted to develop food for the elderly, which is easier to chew and swallow, using gelification. Various foods for the elderly with chewing and swallowing difficulties were used for sensory assessment. The sensory panel consisted of 10 dieticians (10 women) working in nursing care facilities. The sensory optimal composite recipes were determined by the central composite design (CCD). The optimum formulation of hot pepper paste stir fried pork calculated by the numerical and graphical method was 1.48 g of sugar and 18.97 g of hot pepper paste. The optimum formulation of seasoned spinach was 8.0 g of sesame oil and 5.41 g of soy sauce. Moisture content, hardness, and adhesiveness of hot pepper paste stir fried pork was 76.49%, 2.50, and －1.20, respectively. Moisture content, hardness, and adhesiveness of seasoned spinach was 83.48%, 2.27, and －1.17, respectively. This study provides the basic materials for the development of easily chewable and swallowable foods for the elderly, which can reduce the risk of food going down the wrong pipe, and the preference can be improved by eating solid food instead of porridge or liquid food. The development of food for the elderly, which takes the difficulties in chewing and swallowing among the elderly into consideration and reflects their preference and has sufficient amount of nutrients, is important to enable the elderly to enjoy their meals and it is one of the biggest challenges in Korea, as Korean society is aging rapidly.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relations between HbA1c level and health risk factor. For analysis, 330 elderly women aged 65 years and over were recruited in Jeonla province, Korea. The subjects were classified into two groups according to their HbA1c level; the diabetic group (HbA1c level≥6.5%, n=68, 20.6%) and control group (HbA1c level< 6.5%, n=262, 79.4%). Demographic characteristics were collected, as well as information on physical measurements, blood tests for biochemical indicators, a health status and health-related life style, dietary behavior, favorite food groups, consumption frequency of food groups and nutrient intake. Educational level of the diabetic group was significantly lower than that of the control group. The height of the diabetic group was shorter, and percentage fat of the diabetic group was higher than those of the control group. In the diabetic group, the higher concentrations of creatinine and activity of alkaline phosphatase were found to be significantly unfavorable factors. Therefore, the diabetic group was assumed to be at risk of decreased liver and renal function. The self-rated health level of the diabetic group has a declining tendency, while the medicine intake was significantly higher than that of the control group, but there are no significant differences in visiting frequency of hospital and community health center. The distribution of physical activity showed a significant difference between the groups. Although there are no significant differences in nutrient intake, the diabetic group had relatively inferior nutrient intake of diet, especially vitamin C, as contrasted with the control group. In conclusion, the weight control and increasing physical activity may be effective in the prevention of the diabetes and continuous education and intervention by specialized nutritionists will be needed for diabetic patients. These results could be useful to plan effective strategies to increase the health-life expectancy and the prevention of the diabetes of Korean elderly people living in rural areas.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of a nutrition education program for the elderly at a public health center located in Jinhae city. The one group pretest and posttest design was conducted using self-administered questionnaire survey. Nutrition education lessons based on social cognitive theory (2 hours/lesson, 3 times) were provided to 27 female elderly(≥65 yrs) for a month. After the nutrition education, number of exercise increased and preference for sweetness decreased significantly (p<0.05). The outcome expectations, the knowledge of nutrition (p<0.001), and behavioral capability (p<0.05) score were significantly increased. There were significant increases in all nutrient intake. NAR was increased significantly in protein, calcium and vitamin C (p<0.01), dietary fiber, iron, zinc, thiamin, niacin and folic acid (p<0.001), and riboflavin (p<0.05). INQ was increased significantly in thiamin, vitamin B6 and niacin (p<0.05), and dietary fiber (p<0.01). The score of nutrition education satisfaction was high (4.52). The results of this study suggested that the nutritional education program based on social cognitive theory had a positive effect on dietary behavior changes, and nutrition intake status among female elderly even after short-term intervention.

본 연구는 치안 약자인 노인의 범죄두려움의 수준과 범죄두려움에 관한 이론을 근거로 치안 약자 노인의 범죄두려움에 영향을 미치는 요인이 무엇인지 살펴보고 그 결과에 따라 사회복지적 개입 방안을 모색하고자 하였다. 본 연구를 위하여 한국형사정책연구원과 통계청에서 공동으로 [국민생활안전실태조 사]로 조사된 󰡔전국범죄피해조사󰡕(김은경 외, 2014)의 원자료를 갖고 2차 자료 분석을 실시하였다. 그리고 연구자가 사용하는 변수에 대한 결측값이 있는 응답자는 제외되어 총 13,317명 중 7,877명이 전체응답자로 사용되었고, 그 중 치안약자인 노인은 1,382명을 대상으로 분석을 실시하였다. 자료의 분석은 노인과 비노인의 집단 간에 범죄두려움이 차이에 대해 독립표본 T-검정(t-test)을 사용하였고, 범죄두려움에 대한 개인수준과 지역수준의 변량이 크기를 파악하기 위해 HLM으로 변량분석(ANOVA)과 주요 요인은 무엇인지 보고자 다층분석(Multilevel analysis)을 통해 분석하였다. 연구의 목적에 따라 분석한 결과, 첫째, 전체응답자의 개인적 범죄두려움(평균 2.56점) 보다 노인의 개인적 범죄두려움(평균 2.18점)이 낮게 나타났으며, 오히려 비노인의 개인적 범죄두려움이 높게 나타났다. 둘째, 범죄두려움에 관한 이론에 근거하여 사용된 변수들을 모두 회귀식에 투입하여 살펴본 결과, 개인수준 변수에서 남성보다 여성이 개인적 범죄두려움이 높았고, 학력과 취약성 인식정도가 높을수록 개인적 범죄두려움이 높게 나 타났고, 이때, 표준화 회귀계수의 값은 취약성인식(β=0.323), 성별(β=–0.169), 학력(β =0.101) 순으로 나타났다. 지역수준 변수에서 사회적 무질서와 사업체수가 증가할 때, 개인적 범죄두려움이 높게 나타났다. 따라서 치안 약자인 노인의 범죄두려움을 낮추기 위해 여성 노인에 대한 범죄 예방활동이 필요하고, 사회적 무질서를 낮추기 위해서 거리를 방황하는 불량 청소년에 대한 거리이동 상담서비스, 술에 취해 누워있는 노숙인과 만취자에 대한 안전지원 서비스 등과 지역유대를 높이기 위한 지역사회 조직화사업, 공동체 운동, 더불어 사는 마을 만들기 사 업 등이 필요하다. 또한 지역사회 범죄예방과 범죄두려움을 낮추기 위해서 치안감시, 시민감찰 등의 지역사회경찰활동 등에 사회복지적 연계방안을 모색하여 셉테드(CPTED)가 형성될 수 있도록 파트너쉽 형성이 필요하다.

본 연구는 정보사회로의 진입으로 인한 노년층 정보 불평등을 야기시키는 디지털 격 차에 대한 해소방안, 특히 미디어 소외 계층으로 노년층의 스마트 미디어 사용과 디지털 격차에 대한 이슈에 집중하여 노년층에서 발생되고 있는 스마트 미디어 사용과 관 련한 디지털 격차의 유형과 발생 요인을 분석하였다. 연구결과, 노년층 스마트 미디어 디지 털 격차의 유형은 ‘접근격차’, ‘이용격차’ 및 ‘활용격차’로 분류되어졌다. 노년층이 스마트 미 디어 사용에 있어서 발생하는 접근, 이용, 활용 등 3가지 격차에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분 석한 결과, 첫째, 접근격차에는 소득, 학력, 신체적 만족도, 사회적 만족도가 영향력을 가지 고 있었다. 즉, 접근격차의 경우 경제력과 학력이 노년층에게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났 고, 추가적으로 신체적 만족도와 사회적 만족도가 높은 노년층이 스마트 미디어 접근이 수 월하다는 것을 발견하였다. 둘째, 이용격차의 경우 설명력을 가지고 있는 변인은 연령, 지 역, 학력, 신체적 만족도 그리고 사회적 만족도로 나타났는데, 연령이 낮을수록, 학력이 높 을수록 스마트 미디어 기본적 이용에 익숙하였으며 중소도시의 노년층이 이용에 덜 불편함 을 느끼는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 활용격차에 영향을 미치는 요인은 성별, 연령, 학력, 사 회적 만족도로 나타났고, 남성이며 연령이 낮고 고학력의 노년층이 스마트 미디어의 응용 능력이 높은 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study is to propose a specialized clothes-sizing system for elderly (aged 60~79) obese women satisfying the following conditions based on the data from the fifth Korean Agency for Technology and Standards (2004): a Rohrer's index of over 1.6, a BMI of over 25, and a WHR of over 0.85. The lower bodies of elderly obese women tends to be shorter and wider than average. Particularly, their torsos from the chest to the waist tend to be more obese than other areas. According to the KS standards, the clothes-sizing system sets up its size intervals as follows: 5cm in stature, 5cm and 3cm in bust, 3cm in waist, and 3cm in hip. Based on the dualistic distribution of each section, the names of the sections indicating high distribution are suggested. For suit tops, 11 sizes are selected as distributed in the 145-155cm stature section and 91-103cm bust section. For casual tops, nine sizes are selected as distributed in the 145-155cm stature section and 90-105cm bust section. For bottoms, 11 sizes are selected as distributed in the 82-97cm waist section and 91-97cm hip section. According to the KS standards, detailed sizes are suggested in the division of basic and reference areas.

The purpose of this study was to identify correlations among the continence function, cognitive function, and activities of daily living(ADL) in elderly male patients with dementia in geriatric hospitals. The subjects were 64 patients aged 65 or above who were diagnosed with dementia among the hospitalized male patients in a geriatric hospital. For the subjects' cognitive function, a questionnaire developed for the Korean Mini Mental Status Examination(K-MMSE) was used. For the continence function and ADL, data were collected using a patient evaluation table. As a result, a lower level of cognitive function resulted in corresponding higher levels of dependence in all items of ADL except bathing(p<.05), and a lower level of cognitive function led to corresponding declines in the continence function(bowel control, bladder control)(p<.01). In addition, a higher level of dependence in ADL resulted in corresponding higher levels of difficulty in bowel and bladder control(p<.01). This study showed correlations among the cognitive function, ADL, and continence function of elderly men with dementia. The results of this study may be used as basic data for the management and treatment of hospitalized elderly male patients with dementia in geriatric hospitals.

In this study, we compared diet related attributes such as food taste preference, food consumption frequency and nutrition intake between elderly residents in their 80’s of areas in Jeollanam-do that are well known for longevity and those of a part of Seoul. Structured in-depth interviews were conducted by trained interviewers on 125 consented subjects (67 Jeonnam and 58 Seoul). Differences of groups were tested using Chi-square tests for nominal or ordinal data and t-tests and ANOVA tests for ratio data. The elderly from Jeonnam tended to sleep longer, express emotion more freely, and interact with others more often than those from Seoul. The elderly tended to prefer sweet or salty tastes, which might be highly related to serious health problems. The most frequently consumed foods were napa cabbage kimchi (2.19 times/day) and multigrain rice (1.99 times/day). Elderly from Jeonnam tended to consume garlic, milk, beans and roasted barley/corn teas less often; whereas, they consumed porridge, dried radish greens, potato, fermented fish, dried fish, pork rib, pork belly, soybean paste soup, soybean paste/Ssamjang, other kimchis, pickled vegetables, snacks, cookies, and green/black teas more often than elderly residents from Seoul. Differences in nutrition intake between the regions were greater than differences between the perceived levels of household economic status. NAR and INQ for folate were lower among elderly from Jeonnam than those from Seoul, while those for protein, vitamin C, niacin, vitamin B6 were higher. The study results indicated that elderly from Jeonnam engaged in a more diverse diet than the elderly from Seoul.

To develop an elderly diet food that can easily be chewed and swallowed, we manufactured elderly diet food using chicken breast meat with various amounts (0.9, 1.1, 1.3 and 1.5 g) of gelatin used as a viscosity agent, and evaluated their physico-chemical and sensory properties. As the amount of gelatin decreased, the lightness were increased, but the redness and yellowness were decreased. In the texture profile analysis, hardness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness were significantly increased with increased amounts of gelatin, but adhesiveness gradually decreased. Cohesiveness was no significantly difference. Free amino acid contents in elderly diet food using chicken breast meat did not show trend to increase or decrease, but the tyrosine contents were significantly decreased with increased amounts of gelatin. The sensory evaluations including taste, flavor and color were not significantly different. However, the texture and overall acceptance of elderly diet food using chicken meat containing 1.3 g of gelatin had the highest acceptance.

To investigate the preference of food of the elderly for developing processed elderly food, this study was conducted from February 2014 to March 2014 by questionnaire including dietary behaviors, food preference, and frequency of food intake to 119 elderly (49 males and 70 female) who were more than 65 years old and living in Jeonju. Most subjects ate three meals regularly and most of the subjects’ favorite meal time was lunch. The duration time of one meal was 20 min (48.74%). The most preferred taste was delicate and sweet. The subject preferred cooked rice with multi-grains, kalguksu (hot noodle), and abalone porridge to other staple foods. Almost 50% of the subjects liked soybean paste soup and stew, and the ratio of elderly who liked Chinese cabbage kimchi was 72.3%. Preference for panfried foods leaned toward pan fried fish fillet and mung bean pancake. Most subjects preferred plant foods like vegetables, lettuce, and seaweeds. The elderly in Jeonju liked roasted pork, grilled yellow croaker, and stir-fried octopus. Cooked and seasoned vegetables (namul) were the most preferred type by the elderly. Preferences for dishes and food materials were not affected by sex and ages. Most subjects preferred eating out with Korean food. Preference for eating food was selected in grilled beef ribs, a pork cutlet, sushi·broiled eels, and Chinese noodles. Western Japanese and Chinese food were preferred by an elderly subject, who was male and who liked Japanese food more than female.

The aging of Korea is rapidly advancing in an unprecedented rate in the world. Indoor and outdoor safety accidents involving the elderly frequently occur, with elderly population increasing. Because the physical strength of elderly is decreased, it is necessary to develop devices that aid the everyday life of the elderly to prevent safety accidents. Among many activities, the motions of standing from and sitting on a chair require much physical strength from particular body parts, which causes an overload for particular body parts. To the elderly the repeating motion of standing from and sitting down on a chair is burdensome, because they do not have enough physical strength compare to young persons . As a result the elderly could be injured or falling during standing or sitting. Therefore, the development of a lift chair that considers the problems mentioned above is necessary to prevent the safety accidents of the elderly. The study designed a non-motorized lift chair that comfortably aids the standing and sitting down motion for the use of the elderly by reflecting the anthropometric data of the Korean elderly over 65 years old. Also the design was implemented to smoothly aid the standing motion by considering the knee angle of the elderly when standing. Because the regained strength to stand from a chair is depend on the knee angle. Unlike existing lift devices, this device utilizes a tilting mechanism that does not use electric power so that the product could be composed inexpensively than existing chairs released in the market.

본 연구는 교정시설 수형자의 범죄 유형별［재산범죄, 강력범죄(흉악), 강력범죄(폭력) 및 기타범죄］로 차이가 있을 수 있는 심리-사회적 변인들의 특성을 비교분석하여, 추후 연구에 대한 토대 제공 및 수형자 관리와 교육에 반영하려는 목적에서 수행되었다. 이를 위하여 교정시설에 수용된 총 276명의 조사 자료가 사용되었다. 그 결과, 19개 주요 측정 변인들 가운데 결혼만족, 자녀만족, 자존심욕구충족, 주관안녕 및 전반적인 삶의 만족이라는 5개 변인들이 범죄 유형별로 통계적으로 유의한 수준의 차이를 보였다. 즉, 재산범죄자들이 강력(흉악)범들에 비하여 결혼만족과 자녀만족 및 주관안녕 수준이 높았고, 자존심욕구충족 수준은 재산범죄와 기타범죄자가 강력(흉악)범들에 비하여 높았으며, 전반적인 삶의 만족 평가에서는 강력(흉악)범들이 가장 낮았을 뿐, 나머지 세 범죄 유형 간에는 차이가 없었다. 마지막으로 연구의 시사점과 앞으로의 연구방향을 논의했다.

본 연구는 사회복지적 차원에서 노인 대상 성교육 및 성상담 프로그램을 통하여 노인의 성 문제를 효과적으로 원조하는 방법을 찾고자 하는 탐색적인 연구이다. 문헌연구 및 노인 대상 성교육 및 성상담 실천현장의 전문가를 대상으로 노인 성교육 및 성상담에 대 한 인식을 묻는 포커스 그룹 인터뷰를 실시하였다. 그리고 인터뷰 결과를 근거로 성교육 및 성상담 프로그램을 구성하였으며, 노인복지회관에서 전문가에 의해 실시되는 노인들을 대상으로 한 성교육 및 성상담 프로그램의 진행과정을 관찰하였고 참가자들의 프로그램 만족도를 평가하였다. 따라서 노인들이 갖는 의사소통의 어려움, 남녀 간의 성적 차이, 성 인식의 차이에서 나타나는 문제들을 대처하기 위해 사회복지적 요인 적용 성교육 및 성상담 프로그램을 운영하였더니 사회복지적 요인 적용 프로그램뿐만 아니라 전반적인 집단프로그램에 대한 만족도가 높게 나왔으며, 노인의 성문제 해결 가능성을 예측할 수 있는 효과가 나타났다. 또한 사회복지적 요인 적용 성교육 및 성상담 프로그램은 노인의 의사소통능력 향상과 남녀 간의 성적 차이와 성 인식의 차이 이해에 영향을 줄 수 있다고 예측할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study compared the ability of feedback breathing training (FBT) and balloon blowing training to enhance the breathing of elderly people. The subjects were randomly and evenly divided into a feedback breathing training group (FBTG) and a balloon blowing training group (BBTG). Each group trained 3 times a week for 4 weeks, with the training suspended during the last 2 weeks. Pulmonary function measurements were obtained before the test and 2, 4 and 6 weeks after the test: forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC, peak expiratory flow (PEF) and vital capacity (VC). A repeatedmeasures ANOVA was conducted for the significance test. The FBT resulted in a significant increase in the FVC, FEV1/FVC, PEF, and VC of the elderly smokers after 4 weeks and a significant decrease in the FVC, FEV1/FVC, and PEF after 6 weeks. The BBT resulted in a significant increase in the FVC, FEV1, FEV1/FVC, PEF, and VC of the elderly smokers after 4 weeks and a significant decrease in the FVC, FEV1/FVC, and PEF after 6 weeks. In conclusion, An at home breathing rehabilitation program, in addition to balloon blowing, could increase the breathing performance of elderly people.

With the increase in elderly population rate, interest in development of equipment to aid for the elderly activities has been increased. Since the physical features of repetitive behavior of elderly people standing and sitting can cause the stress on certain parts of the body, The necessity of developing Lift Chair concerning the foregoing problem has been to the fore. In this study, we set the average body size of the elderly aiming to develop non-motorized Lift Chair, developed Non-motorized tilting mechanism based on the Muscle strength change at knee angle, and did a study relatively inexpensive Lift Chair considering esthetic and practicality.

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). The results of the present study are expected to serve as basic data for the design of shoes by age and foot type.
