본 논문은 노인복지관을 방문하는 60세 이상의 노인여성을 대상으로 8주간의 화장교육을 실시하여 화장교육이 노인여성의 자긍심과 생활만족도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 조사 대상자는 전체 80명 중 연령과 화장관심도를 근거로 실험군 40명, 대조군 40명으로 나누고 사전 조사 후, 실험군에게 8주간 화장교육을 실시하고, 효과 검증을 위한 사후 검사를 실시하여 실험군과 대조군의 자긍심과 생활만족도를 비교하였다. 교육 후 노인여성들의 화장교육에 대한 평가는 대체로 만족도가 높았으며 연구결과, 화장교육을 받은 실험군의 생활만족도는 유의하게 향상되었고(p<0.05), 자긍심은 교육 후 대조군이 낮아진 것에 비해 실험군은 변화가 거의 없는 것으로 나타나 교육의 효과로 인한 결과로 생각되며, 화장교육이 노인여성의 자긍심과 생활만족도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of group music therapy for at-risk Korean soldiers on the levels of adjustment and stress. The study was conducted at a division of the Korean Army with 7 participants who were classified as "at-risk soldiers" based on the results of a psychiatric evaluation, MMPI-II and a personal interview with a counselor. The participants received 12 hours of group music therapy for three weeks and their scores on stress and adjustment inventories were compared before and after the treatment. The pre and post scores were analyzed with the Wilcoxon test for repeated measures. The results revealed that the overall stress level was significantly decreased while there was no significant improvement in the adjustment levels at p < .05. The research findings and personal remarks from the participants suggest that group music therapy may provide effective support for at-risk Korean soldiers in coping with stress and adjustment to military life.

This study aimed to identify the risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) among age groups using the Framingham risk score (FRS). The research design used was a cross sectional descriptive study using the Sixth Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey from 2013-2015. Data from 5211 men, between the ages of 30-74 was analyzed. After adjusting for age, the result of logistic regression analysis showed that obesity (OR=2.51 95% CI=2.05-3.07), physical inactivity (OR=1.71, 95% CI=1.39-2.10), heavy alcohol drinking (OR=1.33, 95% CI=1.09-1.62), and dietary fiber intake (OR=0.99, 95% CI=0.98-0.99) were presented as predictors of CVD. Obesity was considered to be a particularly important predictor of CVD for young and middle-aged men. This result will be used for developing intervention relating to lifestyle modification for young and middle-aged men.

The aim of this study is to compare the differences of influencing factors and subjective digestive symptoms among upper gastrointestinal disease groups. Subjects of this study are the results of Helicobactor Pylori test, gastrofibroscopic findings, and the electronic data of medical questionnaires on individuals at the age of 20 to 79 who visited a Health Promotion Center in Seoul from October, 2003 to October, 2004. 2,708 cases are analysed for final with $x^2$ test and ANOVA test. The sociodemographic factors of sex, age and occupation, the living habits factors of smoking and drinking, the pathophysiological factor of H. pylori infection, and the psychological factor of stress show statistically significant differences among groups. The digestive symptoms of "the feeling of something remained in the stomach", "the burning feeling right after eating or at the empty state of stomach" and "the frequent reflux of watery acid from the stomach" show statistically significant differences among groups. This study provides meaningful data in finding distinctive features of each disease and will be applied as basic materials to the development of intervention methods for health promotion relating to the upper gastrointestinal diseases.

This study was designed to confirm the association between the pain of Tension-Type Headache(TTH) patients and their Oral Parafunction(OPF). Patients with TTH(n=58) visited the Department of Oral Medicine, Kyung Hee University Dental Hospital during two months were recruited to this study. 20 patients with OPF(bruxism, clenching, bruxism & clenching) are the experimental group and 38 patients without OPF are the control group. Both groups were asked to answer the questionnaire based on the diagnostic criteria of TTH(IHS). Then it was analyzed statistically.

Both groups were asked to answer the questionnaire based on the diagnostic criteria of TTH(IHS). Then it was analyzed statistically. 1. There was no difference in sex(p=0.91) and age(p=0.73) between two groups. 2. In the experimental group, dull pain was presented more frequently than in the control group. But, there was no difference between two groups(p=0.69). 3. In the experimental group, severe pain was presented more frequently than in the control group. But, there was no difference between two groups(p=0.40). 4. In the experimental group, pain shown bilaterally was presented more frequently than in the control group. But, there was no difference between two groups(p=0.52). 5. In the experimental group, pain was more increased by physical activities than in the control group. But, there was no difference between both groups(p=0.74). The pain of TTH patients with OPF was presented to be non-dull pain frequently and more bilaterally and severely, also increased more by physical activities than the pain of TTH patients without OPF. But, there was no significant difference between two groups. Therefore, it is considered that the pain of TTH is not influenced by OPF.

Objectives : Stress induces alteration of gastrointestinal function in which interleukin (IL) and hypothalamo-pituitary-axis are involved. Depression again is associated with functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) and interleukins. The author attempted to look into the role of interleukins in the FGID also the association of depression and stress in this context. Methods : Entered were 20 patients with FGID, diagnosed by Rome IT criteria and 20 healthy controls. Depression was measured by Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D), and stress of the last one year by Schedule of Recent Experience (SRE). Serum levels of IL-$1\beta$, IL-2, IL-6 were measured by Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay and serum cortisol by Fluorescence Polarization Immunoassay. The results were as follows : Results: 1) Serum levels of IL-$1\beta$, IL-2 were significantly lower in the patients with FGID than those in the controls, but level of IL-6 did not differ between two groups. 2) The patient group showed significantly higher level of serum cortisol as well as higher degrees of depression and stress. 3) Positive correlation was noted between depression and serum cortisol, and between depression and IL-2. A trend of negative correlation was seen between depression IL-$1\beta$. Positive correlation was noted between SRE and IL-6 and IL-6 and serum cortisol. Conclusions : It was concluded that FGID might be related to depression and stress. Changes of the interleukins might be involved with elevated cortisol level.

The objective of this study was to establish Facility classification for military barracks among military facilities. The military barracks are the place where soldiers spend most of their time. Thus, a new type of space in military barracks is required to improve the quality of life of the soldiers and make the military more advanced for national defense. The research method was to derive problems through a survey of the previous literature and case studies and to select target places in the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine based on the derived problems. An improvement scheme was proposed by developing criteria for military barracks spaces through a questionnaire survey. The following results were obtained: Facility classification inside of national defense military facility standard should be reorganized. The alternative plan is demanded for some camp which has no need about setting up the office facility. And the study of reasonable facility area after improvementing facility categorization is required.
