Results: 91.7% of women sought the health information about child birth, child care, health promotion, and disease control. Original nationality, monthly income, and subjective health status significantly predicted health information seeking behavior in Asian immigrant women (adjusted R square= .256, p< .001). Conclusion: To improve self-care ability and health care services accessibility in Asian immigrant women, health care professionals should consider factors related to health information seeking behavior.

Purpose: The present study was to identify health status, health behavior and quality of life(QOL) in the elderly aged over 65 years with osteoarthritis compared with those of the healthy elderly. Methods: We analysed data from 326 elderly drawn from the Forth Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2009 performed by Ministry of Health and Welfare and Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: 244 elderly with osteoarthritis and 82 healthy elderly without chronic diseases. Results: The elderly with osteoarthritis were more likely to be female, no spouse, low educational level, low subjective health status and low functional health status. The elderly with osteoarthritis were found to have lower smoking, lower alcohol consumption and more obesity than those of the healthy elderly. Walking physical activity was not different between the elderly with osteoarthritis and the healthy elderly. Finally, the elderly with osteoarthritis were found to have lower mobility, lower usual activities, more pain/discomfort, and more anxiety/depression among EQ-5D(Euro Quality of Life-5 Dimension) health profiles, lower EQ-5D index and lower EuroQoL-VAS mean. Conclusions: The elderly with osteoarthritis were at high risk for poor QOL. It is necessary to supply a comprehensive management program to improve QOL for the elderly with osteoarthritis.

본 연구는 지역사회 거주 노인의 신체기능과 낙상두려움간에 상호 어떻게 영향을 미치는가의 관계을 살펴보고자 시도하였다. 65세 이상 노인 460명을 대상으로, 연구기간은 2014년 1월 3일부터 3월 30일까지이며, 본 연구에 자발적으로 참여할 것을 동의한 노인에게 직접 설문지를 읽어주고 대상자가 대답하는 방식으로 조사하였다. 인구사회학적 특성과 낙상 에 관한 정보, 신체기능과 낙상두려움에 대하여 조사하였고 지난 1년동안 낙상을 경험한 노인은 139명(30.2%)으로 조사되었 다. 신체기능에서 한 발 들고 균형 잡고 서 있기, 협응성?유연성 검사, 보행능력 검사가 낙상두려움간에 유의한 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 변수의 회귀모형을 분석한 결과 유의한 것으로 나타났으며, 모형의 설명력은 16.9%이고 낙상 두려움에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요인은 앉았다 일어서기 검사, 보행능력 검사로 조사되었다. 본 연구는 낙상 예방을 위한 보다 효과적인 중재 프로그램 개발에 기여할 것으로 사료된다. The aim of this study was to determine the physical performance and fear of falls in the community dwelling elderly and to investigate how the factors were connected to one another. The data was collected between January 3rd and March 30th, 2014 from 460 elderly people, aged 65 or older, who agreed to participate in this study. The data was sampled among the elders’ assistants as a way of responding to the questionnaire after being read. The study scales were composed of the demographic characteristics, physical function and fear of falls. A total of 139 (30.2%) subjects had experienced a fall. The results showed a positive correlation with the chair rise, standing on the leg, pick up a penny from floor, timed up and go test, and fear of falls. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that a predictor of the fear of falls were chair rise and timed up and go test. A combination of physical performance accounted for 16.9% of the fear of fall. Based on the findings of this study, it is useful to more effectively develop fall prevention and intervention programs in a future study.

Study participants completed a structured questionnaire on health-related behaviors and areas of needs for exercise programs. Analysis of data was performed using descriptive statistics and chi-square tests. Results: Workers with greater interest in exercise reported to engage in exercise. Significant differences were observed in goals of exercise, preferred exercise, preferred methods for delivery of exercise, preferred exercise monitoring, and social support for exercise maintenance according to age, sex, marital status, education, commuting time, occupation, alcohol use, smoking, and current participation in exercise. There were no differences in areas of exercise program needs by consumption of high calorie foods. Conclusion: Public health nurses can use these findings for development and implementation of tailored exercise programs to promote health for workers whose physical activity is insufficient.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare health literacy levels of Asian immigrant women and factors associated with health literacy focusing on Korean-Chinese and other Asian immigrants in Korea. Methods: Data were drawn from 258 immigrant women, comprising 56 Korean-Chinese and 202 other immigrants from the Philippines, Vietnam, Japan, Cambodia, Thailand, Uzbekistan, Taiwan, and Han-Chinese. The Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine ? Short Form (REALM-SF) was used to assess health literacy, which consisted of seven medical words in Korean (behavior, exercise, menopause, rectal, antibiotics, anemia, and jaundice). Data analysis was performed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA with Scheffe post hoc test, and hierarchical regression. Results: Korean-Chinese women showed significantly higher levels of health literacy (M=6.41±1.07), compared to their other immigrant counterparts (M=4.55±2.15). While Korean-Chinese women with longer time since immigration (p=.048) reported higher health literacy, for other immigrants, those living with children (p<.001), longer time since immigration (p=.011), and greater Korean language proficiency (p=.004) showed an association with higher health literacy. Conclusion: When providing health care services and health education, health care professionals should consider differences in levels of health literacy and factors associated with health literacy among Korean Chinese and other immigrants.
