With nationwide random sample non-Hispanic White, older individuals (60+), living in their...
This study aimed to frame the aging in place (AIP) concept within an extended theory of planned behavior (TPB) model incorporating environmental domains. The proposed depicts direct and indirect effects domains on AIP intention. related meanings home embrace personal, built, interpersonal environments. As partial mediators between intention, TPB components (attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control toward AIP) were included model. sample comprised older adults aged 60 living...
This study examined the relationship between residential satisfaction and intention to move among older adults living in multifamily housing based on M orris W inter's theory of adjustment. Residents age 55 years over market‐rate were recruited from a convenience sample ( n = 431). Exploratory factor analysis, t ‐test, analysis variance, multiple regressions employed. Results revealed that those who (i) older, healthier, retired, had higher incomes, owners, larger units within newer...
Ten adult readers, advanced in their control of two languages, Korean and English, were recruited for a study academic literacy practices to examine the various linguistic repertoires on which they drew. Analysis language use revealed many instances translanguaging, that is, flexible reliance languages serve one's immediate needs. All participants engaged cognitive reading strategies associated with translanguaging. These translanguaging interpreted through lens Hornberger's (2013) bilingual...
This study examines the relationships between U.S. baby boomers' desire to age in place and residential satisfaction with their housing unit, neighborhood, access services.

However, services not significantly related Results of suggest that practitioners policy makers should consider offering implementing policies support
Using the American Housing Survey (AHS), this study compared two groups of seniors, namely fuel poor (FP) households and non-fuel (NFP) ( N = 6604). In study, FP group is defined as comprising that must spend approximately 3.8% its household income on heating, based natural gas consumption heating. The results show seniors in paid significantly higher heating costs while earning much less to those NFP group. respondents were more likely be older, females, widowed, single-person poorer...
Methylchlorogenic acid (MC) is one of the main components in leaves Eriobotrya japonica. We previously reported that MC most potent antioxidant among several japonica, and its activity stronger than chlorogenic acid. Antioxidants are expected to inhibit redox-sensitive NFκB activation since readily influenced by cellular oxidative state. Based on these findings, vivo experiments with were conducted determine ability downregulate mouse liver. Results clearly showed a suppressor BHP-induced...

Zero-energy houses, one of the progressive types energy-efficient homes, theoretically consume no energy for heating, cooling, or other daily activities. The purposes this research were to identify representative experimental housing projects in South Korea and analyze their major features terms efficiency environmental friendliness. This study used case studies consisting two zero-energy houses occupied neighborhood. found that efforts have been made build homes Korea. also renewable...
The object of the long-term planning in shipyards is to assign ordered vessels berths with consideration workload balancing. However, there are limitations establishing an optimized plan because balancing takes too much time due size and complexity problem domain. Most currently overcome by dividing into two-phase berth capacity planning. being conducted a heuristic method considering some rules such as priority closeness delivery date. Then it followed planning, which data considered for...
Abstract This study investigated multifamily housing consumer profiles among the US people age 55 and above based on their reasons for moving into current housing. A total of 431 samples were collected by an online research survey company using convenience sampling. The three found from exploratory factor analysis: living reason, nearby activities reason financial reason. cluster analysis uncovered groups consumers: neighbourhood seekers, upscale seekers affordable seekers. segmentation...

This study aims to understand the decision-making process of healthy housing material selection boomers who were born between 1946 and 1964 in United States within Health Belief Model (HBM) framework incorporating personal factors. The main constructs three HBM components (perceived benefits, threats, barriers), domains (knowledge, health concerns, sensitivity materials), behavioral intention choose materials. With a nationwide random sample living their homes (N = 306), path analysis was...
The purpose of this paper was to examine rural-urban differences in aging Korea. study based on data collected from Jeju Island, South sample (N=350) divided into rural and urban areas; we compared demographic housing characteristics, health-related variables associated with place. Seniors living areas were less educated younger than those areas. In addition, seniors likely own their house, live single-family housing, have lived longer at current housing. However, they struggle more chronic...
Abstract As digital modelling programmes become increasingly prevalent in interior design education, there is concern that graduates are entering the workforce relying too much on strong graphic presentation skills while lacking basic ability to speak about design. This study explores gap between practitioners’ perceptions of importance regarding oral competency and students’ their performances. Additionally, correlations in‐class activities competency. Mixed‐methods investigation include a...
The purpose of this study was to explore housing value clusters young renters in South Korea and their relationships household characteristics reflected the 2012 Housing Survey (KHS).

Ten rating scale items measured values. Eight them grouped into three factors: Investment, Affordability Cost Increase. Using these...
Thioredoxin 1 (Trx1) serves a central role in redox homeostasis. It is involved numerous other processes, including oxidative stress and apoptosis. However, to the best of our knowledge, Trx1 inflammation remains be explored. The present study investigated function mechanism cell permeable fused Tat-Trx1 protein macrophages mouse model. Transduction levels were determined via western blotting. Cellular distribution transduced was by fluorescence microscopy. 2',7'-Dichlorofluorescein...
This study explored how different types of consumer knowledge (exposure, subjective knowledge, and objective knowledge) predict perceptions (benefits, severity, barriers) behavioral intention to choose non-toxic housing materials products based on the extended health belief model (HBM). The target population was people 18 years or older living in U.S. A total 1050 valid responses were collected through an online survey. Structural equation modeling used test via AMOS version 24. Results show...
Due to climate change and the increase in energy costs, number of people with heat-related illnesses is increasing among older adults. Although government implements adequate thermal environment supporting programs, they mainly support costs based on income levels during winter.
