Objective : This study aimed to understand the burnout experience of hospital occupational therapists through phenomenological research. Methods : We conducted in-depth interviews with 6 occupational therapists working at hospital for 8 weeks. The data were analyzed using the Palangsae 2.0 software to derive meaning through the process of transcription and data entry, coding, and topic creation. Results : From the collected data, 14 sub-themes, 9 theme clusters, 3 categories were identified. The cause of burnout was confirmed as being due to therapy-related work and workplace conditions. The impacts of burnout on individual life were psychological in nature and also included being an adverse, influence on others. The coping strategies to deal with burnout were enrichment of personal life, self-awareness and philosophy, conscious approach, social support, and setting new goals for life. Conclusion : We suggest that spontaneous efforts are needed by occupational therapists in order to alleviate the conflicts of job identity. In addition, organizational regulations and programs and the establishment of horizontal organizational cultures are required to overcome and prevent burnout of occupational therapists.

강이나 하천에 이수 및 치수의 목적으로 소규모 댐이나 보 등의 수리구조물을 설치한다. 수리구조물의 상하류부에는 하천 하상의 극심한 침식인 국부세굴현상을 방지하여 수리구조물의 안정성을 확보하기 위해 하상보호구조물을 설치하는데, 특히 하류부에 설치하는 하상보호구조물에는 크게, 다양한 형식과 크기의 물받이공, 에너지 감세공, 그리고 끝턱구조물 등이 이에 속한다. 지금까지 국내 외 수리구조물 설계지침에서는 하상보호공의 적절한 길이규모를 산정하기 위한 다양한 공식이 개발 및 적용되었지만, 최근 들어 다양한 목적을 위해 복잡해진 수리구조물의 형식과 다양한 운영방식에 따른 수리학적 분석내용이 적절하게 반영되지 않은 경험공식이 대부분 적용되었다. 따라서 예상보다 매우 큰 하상유실이 발생 하여, 하상보호구조물의 설치역할을 제대로 수행하지 못하고 오히려 수리구조물의 안정성에 위협을 주는 주요한 요인이 되었다. 그리고 최근 국내에는 4 대강 유역에 16개 중 대규모의 다목적 보가 설치되었으나 앞서 언급한 바와 같이 미흡한 설계지침을 기반으로 설치된 보 및 하상보호구조물의 기능이 저하되어 극심한 세굴현상이 발생하였다. 또한 이를 보강하기 위한 추가적인 공사 등으로 경제적인 손실을 야기하였다. 반면 외국의 최근 설계지침에는 하상보호구조물 하류부에서 발생하는 평형최대세굴심의 규모를 고려하거나 흐름 및 난류분포를 고려한 수리학적 분석이 반영되어 있지만 국내 설계지침에는 전무한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 국내 설계지침의 한계를 조사하고 현재 외국에서 적절하게 제안되어 적용 중인 하상보호구조물 설계지침을 검토하였다. 특히 수리학적 거동특성과 유사분포 특성이 고려된 최대세굴심 산정공식과 설계지침을 검토하였고, 평형상태에 도달한 세굴공 내에서의 수리학적 특성을 고려하여 하상보호구조물의 길이를 적절히 산정할 수 있는 기존 연구결과를 토대로, 하상보호구조물 길이 산정공식을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 검토된 외국 설계지침과 함께 수리학적 거동특성이 고려된 하상보호구조물의 길이 산정공식은, 향후 수리구조물의 안정성 확보를 위한 하상보호구조물의 설계에 반영될 필요가 있으며, 이를 통해 수리구조물의 효율적이고 경제적인 유지관리를 위해 적절히 활용될 수 있다.

The participants of the this study were 7 respondents who were admitted secondary science gifted education program from 2001 to 2004 in Busan. The research data was collected through in-depth interview. This qualitative study applied the phenomenological method of Giorgi. The gifted person experiences of gifted education were clustered into 7 specific themes and 21 general structures for achievements. And they were clustered into 5 specific themes and 11 general structures for careers. It showed positive effects on individual achievements and careers. The result will provide implications for setting the direction of gifted education.

수은의 순환현상은 원소성 수은의 지화학적 분포특성으로 대표된다 (Kim et al., 1997). 강한 휘발성과 화학적인 안정성은 광역적으로 수은이 균질한 분포특성을 유지하여 지구규모의 대기순환에 종속되는 원인으로 이해된다. 수은의 순환과 관련된 근래의 연구들은 다음과 같이 다양한 환경권계면간에서 진행되는 교환현상들에 주로 초점을 맞추어 왔다. 대기환경과 수림식생과의 교환현상에 대한 연구 (Lindbereg et al., 1995, 1998), 대기환경과 토양생태계의 교환 (Carpi and Lindberg, 1998; Kim et al., 1995; Kim and Kim, 1999, 1998.

This study investigated why homeschooling families choose homeschooling instead of public education and the changes and adjustment processes that those families undergo during their homeschooling period. The participants in the study are 18 families who have experienced more than 2 years of homeschooling. Mothers, fathers, and children all participated in a series of interviews. The analysis of the data was performed using the four stages of phenomenological study as presented by Giorgi. The main subject of this study is the belief of homeschooling families that "homeschooling is not a mere educational method but a life style." Initially, they choose homeschooling as a mere educational method, but the results here show that communication between parents and children increased and family cohesion was strengthened as time passed. In conclusion, it was found that many aspects of life begin to change for those who undertake homeschooling, including the values, statuses, and rules of the family. Thus, homeschooling can become a lifestyle.
