본 논문에서는 얼굴영상을 이용한 스트레스 지수 추정 방법을 제안한다. 얼굴영상으로부터 스트레스 지수(Stress Index)를 추정하기 위해 ROI(Region of Interest) 영역을 지정하고 지정된 영역의 색상공간을 RGB에서 YCgCo로 변환한다. 검출된 얼굴영역에서 프레임별 Cg값의 평균을 구하고 Cg신호의 주기를 이용하여 스트레스 지수를 추정한다. 제안방법의 성능평가를 위해 PPG(Photoplethysmogram) 측정 장비로부터 측정된 스트레스 지수와 얼굴영상을 이용하여 얻은 스트레스 지수를 서로 비교 분석하는 실험을 진행하였고, 성능평가 결과 오차율이 8.32%인 것을 확인하였다.

This study used a structured questionnaire to analyze the effects of oral habits and stress on temporomandibular disorders in high school students. A total of 339 students attending high schools in Ulsan agreed to participate in the study. Data was analyzed using the SPSS Statistics ver. 18.0 for Windows program, t-test, one-way ANOVA, correlation, and regression analysis. Our results reveal that the temporomandibular disorder index is statistically correlated with the oral habit index, school life stress index, family life stress index, interpersonal stress index, and egosphere stress index (p≤0.01). The oral habit index had maximum influence on the temporomandibular disorder index. Moreover, higher the stress level in egosphere stress, greater significant differences were observed in the temporomandibular disorder index (p≤0.01). In other words, persistence of oral habits and non-addressal of stress increased the likelihood of experiencing temporomandibular disorders in adulthood. This was determined by the regression formula Y (temporomandibular disorder index) = 2.563 + 0.550X1 (oral habit index) + 0.134X2 (egosphere stress index). Thus, bad oral habits and stress in adolescence can be the potential cause of jaw joint disorders in adulthood. We believe that measures are needed to actively recognize and improve oral habits, and properly cope with stress during adolescence.

This paper examined the possibility of NET application for a relative weather stress index in Korea. The characteristic of NET distribution used temperature, relative humidity, wind speed which forecasting at Korean Meteorological Administration were analyzed. Regional critical values of daily maximum NET of stress index for summer resembled the distribution of daily maximum temperature because were not impacted wind and humidity but temperature. Regional critical values of daily minimum NET of stress index for winter distributed variously compared with summer. The highland region and the northern region of Seoul were impacted of low temperature and coastal region which strong wind. The occurrences of stressful days did not vary in summer, but obviously increased in winter after mid-1990s.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of optimism on stress on happiness index. The subjects were 3 and 4 grade students who had clinical practice experience among 3 nursing students at G university, and 362 questionnaires were used as research data. The data analysis used regression analysis, SPSS macro and bootstrapping methods to examine the mediating effects of optimism on college students' stress and happiness. The results showed that stress, happiness, and optimism were significantly correlated, and stress had a direct effect on college students' happiness. In other words, the higher the level of stress, the lower the happiness index of college students. The optimism was partially mediated between stress and college students' happiness index. Therefore, in order to increase the happiness index of college students, it is necessary to develop and implement a program for happiness enhancement as one of the program strategies that can enhance stress.

We may have had experience to use meaning of stress once at least. Because various mental and physical frustration, conflict, deprivation, and pressure have been happened around the us while we live our whole life. The stress is always existing at our surroundings as much. Now, most stress measurement method is composed of mental method and physical method. The accuracy of stress grade lacks to the disproportion of subjectivity, objectivity, and a science trait. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the index processing algorithm for a stress relief better, after mixing mental measurement result and physical measurement result.

A number of tools and equipment can measure the degree of stress. Stress measurement includes both psychological and physiological measurements. Considering only one of these elicits subjective or objective deficiency. Overcoming this problem requires a new stress index that combines these two measurements. Following people's personal traits, the measurement results also appear in diverse ways, but we can consider and study the general case obtained on the basis of the measurement tool. By using the index obtained by the psychological and physiological measurement tools, we obtain an integrated stress index. Therefore, we choose to use four stress measurement tools. The index of the result of each measurement tools is referred to as the multi-index. These indices are plotted on coordinates to analyze and diagnose the balance and tendency of the stress.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of watching TV on employees' stress and communication levels. We developed a 30 minutes-long TV watching program for this study. Participating employees were asked to watch the 30 minutes-long TV programs during their lunch hours for 20 weeks. The stress and communication levels were measured before and after the experiment. The results show that in general, both the average stress level and communication level were statically significantly improved for all the participated employees except those in the 20s. The biggest improvement in stress and communication levels was made in those in the 30s. In sum, the 'Watching TV programs' had a positive impact on the reduction of stress and the increase of communication abilities for the employees. This is believed to be the first employer initiated attempt in Korea to tackle employees' stress and communication problems with the implementation of the TV watching program concept.

Study of methods to measure stress has been continuously ongoing. As such, studies have continued because this is an issue that exists in the method of our lives, yet it is hard to solve. The concept of stress is yet to be certain, with diverse interpretations because the approach method is diverse. There are significant differences in individual stress reactions, and several factors are involved. It is necessary to express stress in simple figures and to find out about it easily on a personal level. Consequently, this paper suggests the algorithms to express stress index on the base of a statistics data and a measurement tool which is used in the specific group.

현대 사회에서 극심한 스트레스로 고통을 호소하는 사람들이 많아짐에 따라 효과적인 스트레스 측정 시스템의 필요성이 대두되었다. 본 연구에서는 영상 속 인물의 표정과 음성 감성 분석을 통한 통합 스트레스 분석 시스템을 제안한다. 영상 속 인물의 표정과 음성 감성 분석 후 각 감성값에서 스트레스 지수를 도출하고 정량화한다. 표정과 음성 스트레스 지수로 도출된 통합 스트레스 지수가 높을수록 스트레스 강도가 높음을 증명하였다.

본 연구에서는 한강유역에 발생한 가뭄 분석을 위해 표준강수지수를 활용하였으며, 가뭄분석을 위해 한강유역에 실제로 발생한 가뭄사상 중에 한강유역에 조금 더 많은 피해를 미친 것으로 조사된 2000 - 2001년에 대해 가뭄과 수량 스트레스 관계를 살펴보았다. 수량 스트레스값은 강수에만 영향을 받고 있는 값보다는 실제 가뭄 피해의 영향정도를 살펴보기 위해 수량 스트레스의 결과값과 상호 비교하였다. 이는 실제 발생한 기상학적 가뭄으로 인한 피해가 수량 스트레스 변화에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 상호 비교함으로써 보다 정확한 가뭄 피해 발생 시기를 확인하고자 함이다. 표준강수지수 SPI3, SPI6, SPI12을 분석하기 위해 2000년 1월 - 2001년 12월까지의 데이터를 구축하였다. 이와 함께 수량 스트레스의 경우 월별 최대 NDI 값을 추출하여 월단위 자료를 구축하였다. 표준강수지수와 NDI 값을 상호 비교한 결과 2000 - 2001년에 발생한 가뭄 사상의 경우, 실제 피해가 발생한 시점은 2001년 3월 - 5월에 발생한 동아시아 지역의 가뭄의 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 한강유역의 대부분에서 수량 스트레스가 발생하는 시기와 SPI3로 인한 가뭄 발생시기가 유사한 패턴으로 나타났다. SPI6와 비교분석해본 결과 기존 SPI3에서 나타낸 2001년 5월에 발생된 가뭄 발생은 실제 수량 스트레스가 발생하는 2001년 5월 이후와 유사한 패턴을 보이는 것으로 나타났지만, 실제 수량 스트레스 발생 시기와는 상관성이 떨어지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. SPI12에서는 대부분의 유역에서 2000년에는 가뭄이 발생하지 않은 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 한강유역에 발생한 가뭄 피해를 생각해보면, 2001년에 발생한 가뭄 자체가 단기적인 가뭄의 영향이 아닌 장기적인 가뭄의 영향을 띄고 있는 것으로 해석 할 수 있으며, 2000년대 초반 극심한 가뭄 피해를 입힌 2001년 가뭄은 지속적인 가뭄 동반한 장기 적 가뭄 피해임을 확인할 수 있었다. 즉, 수량 스트레스와 가뭄을 연계하여 가뭄 해석에 활용한다면, 추후에 좀 더 정확한 가뭄 피해를 사전에 예측할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
