This study investigates the factors influencing service outcomes of group homes and residential care centers, as well as the factors causing any differences between the two service outcomes. 119 and 137 5-6th graders were selected from group homes and residential care centers respectively, using the cluster sampling method. Multiple regression and Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition were used in this study. The results revealed that ``stigma``, ``school adjustment``, and ``social support`` were significant factors influencing service outcomes among children in group homes, while ``stigma``, ``primary caregivers`` attitude``, and ``peer relations`` were identified as significant factors among children in residential care centers. The study also found that the mean service outcome score for group homes was higher than that of residential care centers. The 74 percent of this difference in the mean scores was due to the difference in children` characteristics of the two out-of-home care service types. The remaining 26 percent of this difference was due to unobserved characteristics. Finally, the implications of this study in child welfare practices were also discussed.
Bumblebees are widely used to pollinate various crops, especially tomato, in greenhouses. Here we developed the newly pollinating method with bumblebee in apple orchard. Bumblebee colony have only 200-400 workers. To promote the efficiency of pollinating bumblebees, it was examined to qualify a bumblebee, Bombus terrestris colony for an end-product by recruiting with CO₂ treated foreign workers. There were no differences between colony with narcotized foreign workers and normal colony in colony development and foraging activity. In rate of fruit set and product amount of apple, the newly developed bumblebee colony was 6.5% and 10.1% more higher than mason bee, Osmia cornifrons, which is using as apple pollinator. Our results indicated that the developed bumblebee colony was suitable for apple pollinator, especially in low temperature and bad weather.
Purpose: The purposes of this study were to identify the actual conditions and needs of the health care utilization and health information in deafs. Methods: Forty-one deaf volunteers were interviewed by suwha nursing students. The semi-structured interviews were conducted in sign language at homes and community centers. The instrument developed by researchers consisted of 22 items including demographic information, health care utilization, and open-ended questions. Data were analyzed using content analysis, frequency and percentage. Results: The most discomfort problems were communication difficulty and expression of symptom. The deaf people wanted to learn about diseases and symptoms. The deaf wanted to get information about cancer. Conclusions: Further studies focusing on educational intervention are needed to increase the knowledge level on disease of deaf. The sign language translators are needed to help communication for deaf in health care facilities.
본 연구는 지난 20여년 동안 건강신념모형을 적용한 폐결핵 환자의 환자역할행태 관련 국내 연구문헌을 수집하여 연구 동향을 파악하고, 계량적 메타분석을 통하여 환자역할행태 향상을 위한 관련요인의 효과크기를 산출하여 제시하고자 하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 1980년대 이후 20여년간 폐결핵 환자의 건강 관련행태와 관련되어 수집된 66편의 연구논문 중 이 연구의 계량적 메타분석 단계에 최종 포함된 연구는 11편이었다. 이 연구들은 주로 1985년에서 1989년까지 국내 학술지에 각각 54.5%(6편)가 게재되었으며, 연구자(제1저자 포함)는 주로 간호학 전공자들(90.9%)이었다. 메타분석에 포함되는 전체 결핵환자수는 1,263명으로 보건소의 등록환자(81.8%)를 주 대상으로 연구가 진행되었다. 또한 연구설계로는 환자-대조군연구와 단면연구가 각각 6편(54.5%), 5편(45.4%)으로 t-검정, 분산분석, ${\chi}^2$ -검정, 상관분석과 (다중) 회귀분석 등의 통계방법이 병용되었는데, 이중 t-검정방법이 빈번히 사용되었다. 둘째, 폐결핵 환자의 일반적 특성 중에서는 유일하게 결핵에 대한 지식 요인만이 환자역할행태에 중등도의 큰 효과를 미치고 있었다(d=0.7870). 그리고 약간의 중등도 효과를 보인 요인들로는 성(d=0.2756), 결혼상태(d=0.2176)와 교육(d=-0.2208) 특성도 들 수 있다. 셋째, 건강신념(믿음)모형 관련 모든 요인들이 환자역할행태에 각각 중등도의 효과를 미치고 있었다. 즉, 행위 수행에 따르는 이익을 높게 인지할수록(d=0.7257), 행위 수행에 따르는 장애요인이 적을수록(d=-0.4242), 질병에 걸릴 가능성을 높게 인지할수록(d=0.4033), 질병의 심각성을 높게 인지할수록(d=0.3133) 환자역할행태의 향상에 유효한 효과가 있었다. 이상의 결과에서 폐결핵 환자의 환자역할행태에는 환자 개인의 다른 특성보다는 결핵에 대한 지식 수준 및 건강신념(믿음)모형의 이익, 장애, 가능성과 심각성 등의 특성이 중요한 역할을 하고 있다. 따라서 결핵정보감시체계의 운영을 통한 결핵환자의 추적관리가 용이한 만큼 건강증진의 차원에서 이들에 대한 적극적인 보건교육을 통한 결핵에 대한 지식 수준의 제고뿐만 아니라 건강신념모형에 따라 결핵치료에 대한 의료인의 설명과 지시 이행의 장점을 충분히 인지하도록 노력할 필요가 있겠다. 【Objectives: The purpose of this study is to summarize results from 11 domestic studies about sick role behavior applied health belief model and to assess the effectiveness of components on behavior change by using meta-analysis. Methods: We collected the existing literatures by using major web search of 'pulmonary tuberculosis patients', 'health belief model', and 'sick role behavior' as key words and by reviewing content of journals. Quantitative meta-analysis was performed by SAS program. Results: Among 66 articles, 11 studies were selected for quantitative meta-analysis. The knowledge level about pulmonary tuberculosis had more effect for only sick role behavior as general characterisitcs(d=0.7870). All the components of health belief model produced significant effects on sick role behavior with the magnitude of effect size from 0.31 to 0.73. The largest effects were benefits on actions of sick role behavior. Conclusions: Overall, these investigation provide very substantial empirical evidence supporting health belief model dimensions as important contributors to the explanation and prediction of sick role behavior among the type of health related behavior in pulmonary tuberculosis patients. Strategic intervention including health education, etc. based on health belief model showed clear advantage in improvement of behavioral change.】
양극성 장애는 환자에게 사회적, 직업적 기능에 심각한 장애를 초래하는 질환중의 하나이다. 양극성 장애의 원인은 생물학적 요인이 핵심적인데 유전적, 생화학적, 수면생리적, 신경내분비적 요인을 고찰했다. 양극성 장애 환자의 질병경과에 영향을 끼치는 요인과 재발에 영향을 끼치는 요인에 대해 간략히 설명하겠다. 양극성 장애 환자가 실제 생활 장면에서 경험하는 사회적/직업적 기능 저하는 매우 심각하며 삽화가 거듭될수록 기능 수준은 더욱 저하되기 쉽다. 이러한 질병의 경과 특징에 초점을 맞춘 치료적 개입이 요구된다.
