This study was aimed to investigate the nature of functional impairment in social phobia and the correlation between the functional impairment and the duration of the disease, and the severity of the symptoms. In 66 patients with social phobia, the functional impairments were assessed with the SDS(Sheehan's disability scale) and the LSRDS(Liebowitz self-rated disability scale), and the severity of the symptoms was assessed with the SPS(social phobia scale). The results were summarized as follow : 1) Most of the social phobic patients reported moderate to severe impairment in their lives in areas of education, employment, family relationships, romantic relationships, social networks, and other interests, etc. 2) There was a significant correlation between the severity of the symptoms and the disability in their lives. 3) The offensive social phobic patients reported that they had more disability in their lives and more severe symptoms than non-offensive patients did. 4) There was no significant correlation between the duration of disease and the disability in their lives. Conclusively, we confirmed that social phobia was associated with the functional impairment in most areas of their lives.

Somatization disorder is a chronic condition characterized by multiple somatic complaints that are not due to any apparent organic illness. Somatization disorder is related historically to hysteria and hysteria has been defined by the existence of somatic complaints for which no organic reason can be found. Therefore most theories of somatization have focused on the psychodynamic and sociological perspectives. However, the concept that the somatic presentation of emotional distress or psychiatric illness might have a neurobiological basis has also aroused considerable interest. Relative to this perspective, the case of Anna O. which has been considered the prototype of hysteria, was reformulated from a neuropsychological perspective. Several neurophysiological and neuropsychological studies, studies concerning hemispheric differences in symptom presentation of the patients with hysteria have been shown the evidences for the biological basis of somatization. Moreover, recent neuroimaging studies in somatization disorder also show that brain dysfunction in somatization. The author reviewed several candidate theories which could help to explain the process of somatization in the perspective of biological basis and proposed the new neuropsychological model of somatization. The author also examined the possible application of this model to the treatment of somatization disorder and discussed it's limitation and the future directions in this field.

Objectives: The authors intended to evaluate long-term outcome of group cognitive behavioral therapy(GCBT) for panic disorder and examined the variables to predict high end-state functioning in 12 months follow-up. Methods: 236 patients meeting DSM-IV criteria for panic disorder were assessed by STAI, ASI, BDI, BSQ, PBQ, ACQ at pre & post treatment, and were asked about the frequency of panic attacks during recent one month. We executed stepwise discriminant analysis on the clinical variables at pre treatment assessment to find the variables for discriminating between high end-state function(HES) and low end-state function(LES). Results: After GCBT, 82.6% of panic patients maintained high end-state functioning at 12 months follow-up. The results of discriminant analysis showed that BDI and BSQ at pre treatment assessment were significant variables to predict end-state functioning at 12 months follow-up. The hit ratio of discriminant analysis was 69.2%. Conclusion: These results suggest that the therapeutic effect of GCBT can be maintained through 12 months. Especially, it is likely that patients who were less depressed and who had less experienced the fear of physical symptoms at pre-treatment can maintain HES.

This study aims to examine the effects of employment on the physical health, psychological function, and life satisfaction of the elderly. Participants were 4,165 persons (men 1,739, women 2,426) aged 65 over. Physical health was composed of ADLs(Activities of daily living), pains, and disorders. Psychological function was measured by cognitive functions (subtraction, instruction execution, memory test, and item use) and emotional difficulty. Life satisfaction, work satisfaction, and work level were also measured. Major findings in this study are as follows: First, gender, marriage, and education level had significant effects on the participants' life satisfaction, but religion and financial incomes did not. Second, employment had significant effects on their physical health, psychological function, and life satisfaction. Third, pain, cognitive functions, emotional difficulty, and work satisfaction had significant effects on the life satisfaction of the working elderly. But, work level and incomes had not significant effects on the elderly's life satisfaction. In addition, an interaction between cognitive functions and emotional difficulty on life satisfaction was found.

This study was a survey study to provide the base data necessary to prepare efficient management plans for the mothers with disabled children by type, comparing degrees of disability acceptance, stress, coping method and wellness between mothers with physical functional disordered children and developmental disordered children. The study subjects were a mother who raises disordered children. Data collection was conducted from October 2018 to April 2019, and differences between the two groups were analyzed as t-test, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation. In results, Studies have shown that there are differences between the two groups as mothers with physical functional disordered children and mothers with developmental disordered children as degrees of disability acceptance, stress, treatment and wellness. Disability acceptance and coping method of mothers with physical functional disordered children (r=0.23, p=.033), disability acceptance and Wellness (r=0.51, p<.001) have shown positive correlations and disability acceptance and stress (r=-0.72, p<.001) have shown negative correlations. Disability acceptance and wellness (r=0.40, p<.001) of the mother with a developmental disordered child have shown a significant positive correlation, and disability acceptance and stress (r=-0.71, p<.001) have shown a significant negative correlations. The higher the degree of disability acceptance, the lower the stress level and the higher the coping method and wellness mothers with physical functional disordered children had. The higher disability acceptance, the lower stress degrees and the higher wellness degrees mothers with developmental disordered children had. In order to improve disability acceptance by mothers with physical functional disordered children, it was necessary to improve both coping methods and wellness with stress reducing strategy, while the mother with developmental disordered children were needed strategies to reduce stress and improve wellness.

임상 결과의 측정에서 새로운 관점을 갖는 것은 중요하다. 의료 재활은 심리적 측정의 질들(표준화, 신뢰도, 타당도)에서 충분한 노력에 수행되어지지 않아 왔기 때문에 환자와 프로그램 사이에 일반화된 기능적인 평가 범위가 부족하다. 장애의 적절한 측정을 위한 요구는 기능적인 상태에서 변화들을 알리고 치료의 필요성을 평가하고 치료를 계획하고 결과를 예측하고 보상 방법을 측정하기 위한 환자의 치료와 임상 연구에서 모두 나타난다. 세계적으로 사용되어지고 있는 기능 평가 도구인 FIM으로부터 이 연구는 신체적 측정의 기대되어진 것에 유사한 비율로 기능적 평가 측정들을 구성한다. 노인 재활에서 기능적인 결과의 측정은 중요한 몇 가지 점이 있다. 첫째는 접근에 기초한 기능적인 결과는 치료 목표 설정에 필요하다. 둘째는 도구는 기능적인 향상을 예상하는데 유용해야 한다. 셋째는 기능 평가는 적절한 타당도와 신뢰도와 함께 고려되어져야만 한다. 넷째는 다른 기능적 도구들이 함께 평가되어져야 할 필요가 있다는 것이다. FIM의 목록의 어려운 접들은 손상을 입은 집단에서는 다소 다양하다. 가장 중요한 부분이기 때문에 하나의 운동범위는 요통과 화상을 입은 환자를 제외한 모든 손상을 입은 집단들에게 적용되어 질 수 있다. 기능의 운동과 인지적인 면은 구분되어지는 것이 중요하였고 분리되어져서 치료되어 졌다. 어려운 목록들은 손상을 입은 집단에서 다양하였고, 다양한 손상의 종류의 독특한 영향을 반영하였다. FIM은 기능적인 장애를 측정하기 위해 고안되어진 또 다른 도구이다. 그리고 다른 것들은 의료 재활을 위한 국제적 자료 체계를 만들기 위한 것이다. FIM의 목적은 의료 재활의 결과를 확인하고 장애의 정도의 측정을 포함한다. FIM은 7가지 수준에서 사회적 인지, 의사 소통, 이동, 움직임 (mobility), 소변 관리, 자조 활동을 평가한다. 범위는 총체적 도움의 비율로부터 완전하게 독립적인 것까지의 범위이고 도움, 감독, 도구의 사용의 범위를 고려한다. 27,009의 환자를 조사한 최근 검사 기록들은 FIM이 움직임(motor)과 인지 기능을 평가하는 것이라는 것을 보여준다(Hinemann, 1993). FIM의 저자들은 자료가 프로그램 평가의 시도에서 즉각적으로 적용 할 수 있기를 기대한다. FSI은 어떤 과제의 수행에서 어려움에 관계된 정보를 제공하는 것을 나타내고 과제를 수행하기 위한 환자를 위한 변경된 전략들을 발달시키기 위해 노력하는 임상가들에게 유용할 수 있다. 두 도구 모두는 전통적인 범위들보다 고관절 골절을 동반한 장애의 좀더 정확한 정보를 모으도록 할 수 있다. 고찰된 모든 연구의 결과들은 골절 후에 남아 있는 잔여 장애의 중요한 수준을 강조한다. 골절 전의 보행으로 회복된 사람은 매우 드물었다. 대부분은 기본적인 움직임 혹은 옷입기, 개인 위생에 관계된 활동들에서 의존적이었다. 많은 사람들은 사회에서 활동을 할 수 없었다. 장애의 적절한 측정의 요구는 환자 치료와 기능적인 상태에서 변화를 알고 치료의 요구도를 측정하고 치료를 계획하고 결과를 예상하고 보상 수단을 결정하는 임상적 연구에서 모두 나타난다. 물리치료 분야는 분야의 다른 영역에서 기능적인 결과를 충족시키고 발달시키는 것이 필요하다.
