Estimating algorithm of physical activity energy expenditure was implemented by using a tri-axial accelerometer motion detector of the SVM(Signal Vector Magnitude) of 3-axis(x, y, z). A total of 33 participants(15 males and 18 females) that performed walking and running on treadmill at 2 ~ 11 km/h speeds(each stage increase 1km/h). Algorithm for energy expenditure of physical activities were implemented with $VO_2$ consumption and SVM correlation between the data. Algorithm consists of three kinds and hip, wrist, waist and hip can be used to apply.

초 고령사회가 전망됨에 따라 적극적인 문화향유를 즐기는 다양한 신체적 활동성이 있는 새로운 실버세대를 스마트 시니어라고 지칭한다. 이전 연구에서는 스마트 시니어의 신체적 노화나 운동능력 저하를 고려하여 제공하는 맞춤형 UI/UX 콘텐츠 서비스를 제공하였다. 또한 스마트 시니어의 인지 반응 검사를 통하여 인지적 특성 저하 요소를 파악하고 A, B, C 그룹으로 나뉘어 그룹 특성에 맞게 글자 크기, 폰트 종류, 재생 속도 등 설정을 조정하여 맞춤형 UI/UX 콘텐츠를 제공하였다. 그러나 약 180여개의 인지 반응 검사를 진행함에 따라 스마트 시니어의 집중력 저하의 문제점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 스마트 시니어의 인지 반응 검사지와 온라인 콘텐츠에서 스마트 시니어가 활동하여 변경된 설정 값을 이용하여 유의미한 인지반응 검사지를 추출하고 인지 반응 검사지 결과를 통해 상세한 맞춤형 UI/UX 콘텐츠를 제공하는 모델을 제안한다.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the amount of physical activity between young children with mental retardation and young children with normal condition using accelerometer. Six children (three children with retardation and other three children with normal condition) were selected as a subject on this research. And measurement of this research was done with the following items;(1)numpeaks accelerometer transverse; PAT, (2) numpeaks accelerometer longitudinal;PAL, (3)heat flux average original rate; HFA, (4) steps per minute(SPM), (5)GSR average. The amount of physical activity for young children with mental retardation shows that they move less that young children with normal condition; young children with mental retardation (PAT-$2.94{\pm}0.60$, PAL-$4.97{\pm}0.650$, young children with normal condition(PAT-$4.50{\pm}0.95$, and PAL-$6.05{\pm}0.87$). This suggests that young children with mental retardation lacks physical ability. And the amount of physical activity for young children with mental retardation was less compared with young children with normal condition. It is concluded that many programs for young children with mental retardation to have more interest and act fast should be introduced and developed in educating young children with mental retardation.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to identify the correlates of bone mineral density of Korean adults. Methods: This study was based on the data from the 2010-2011 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES, 2010~2011) V. Among 8,473 subjects of the survey, who were adults 19 years old or over with bone mineral density data, the current study excluded those whose data include a missing study variable or the response of 'I don't know', and finally analyzed the data of 5,986 subjects (2,692 males and 3,294 females). This study employed the following statistical methods of analysis: t-test, analysis of variance (ANOVA), and hierarchical multivariate linear regression analysis. Results: In multivariate analysis, in the case of men, the significant associated factors in bone mineral density were age, education level, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, total muscle mass, exercise, and weight control; in the case of women, the significant associated factors in bone mineral density were age, education level, economic activity, BMI, total muscle mass, exercise, weight control. fat intake, uptake female hormone, menopause, and age of menarche. Conclusion: For both sexes, the strongest modifiable factor in influencing bone mineral density was total muscle mass. Therefore, to prevent osteoporosis and promote health, active health education and interventions such as regular exercise for total muscle mass increase should be implemented from an early growth period.

The survey is designed to provide fundamental data for assessing effects of calligraphy therapy program. An opened questionnaire asking psychological and physical experiences (3 advantages and 3 disadvantages) was given to 150 persons practicing calligraphy. Collected data were categorized into 10 psychological advantages (435 items), 6 psychological disadvantages (129 items), 9 physical advantages (302 items), and 7 physical disadvantages (150 items). Those subjective experiences were multidisciplinarily interpreted in terms of the mental and physical health and the humanistic education. A new structured assessing tool which will be developed based on the findings from the study may contribute in activating the calligraphy therapy program.

근래에 들어, 웨어러블 기기의 발전으로 사람의 움직임에 대한 측정이 손쉬워 지면서, 워킹, 러닝, 사이클링 등의 인간의 신체 활동 상태를 감지하여 더 효율적인 운동을 할 수 있도록 정보를 획득, 제공하려는 연구가 계속되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 웨어러블 기기중 하나인 스마트 인솔을 통해서 수집되는 가속도 정보와 압력 정보를 사용하여 운동시에 사람의 운동 자세를 감지하고 측정하는 시스템을 구현하였다. 사람이 헬스센터에서 수행하는 각각의 자세는 운동의 특성에 따라 시계열 신호의 표현 패턴이 다르게 나타나며 이 패턴을 통한 정확한 자세의 감지를 위해서 본 연구에서는 다양한 신호처리 알고리즘을 사용하였으며 이 경우 더 정확한 자세를 측정할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 정확한 자세의 감지를 위해 운동의 특징에 따라 알고리즘을 선택하여 시계열 정보를 처리 분석 하는 시스템을 제안하였으며 이를 통해 보다 정확하게 사람의 신체활동을 분석할 수 있었다.

This study involved a secondary analysis of 2016 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data to identify the relations between metabolic syndrome, physical activity, and dietary patterns in Korean adults. The ${\chi}^2$-test, t-test, and logistic regression analysis of complex samples were conducted on the data of 3,352 subjects aged 19 to 64 years with metabolic syndrome. The prevalences of metabolic syndrome among men and women were 29.7% and 16.7%, respectively. In men, the high physical activity group showed a 0.8-fold increase in the likelihood of metabolic syndrome (OR=0.8, p=.038), and higher fat intake increased the risk of metabolic syndrome 0.98-fold (OR=0.98, p=.007). In women, the high physical activity group showed a 0.7-fold increase in the likelihood of metabolic syndrome (OR=0.71, p=.034), higher carbohydrate intake increased the risk of metabolic syndrome by 1.03-fold (OR=1.03, p<.001), and that higher protein and fat intakes reduced the risk by 0.96-fold (OR=0.96, p=.009) and 0.95-fold (OR=0.95, p<.001), respectively. The study shows that to meet the challenge presented by the increasing prevalence of metabolic syndrome, efforts are needed to screen for adults at risk of the metabolic syndrome by regular physical examination and to develop and provide intervention programs that involve regular high intensity physical activity and controlled carbohydrate, protein, and fat intakes.

This study was conducted to analyze the relationship between sleep quality, stress response, physical activity and sleep hygiene in shift work nurses and identify factors influencing sleep quality. The participants were 168 shift nurses from university hospitals and general hospitals located in C city, Gyeongnam. Data were collected from March 25 to 31, 2016. The study instrument use to the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Stress Response Inventory, Korean version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form and Sleep Hygiene Scale. Date were analyzed by frequency, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and hierarchical multiple regression using SPSS/win18.0. The sleep quality index was 7.35 (range 0-21), stress response was 2.20 (range 1-5), physical activity was 3986MET-min/week, and sleep hygiene was 2.73 (range 1-6 points). There were significant differences in sleep quality according to shift work experience, health status and circadian rhythm type. Factors influencing sleep quality included shift work experience, sleep hygiene, stress response and physical activity, which together explained 40% of the total variance of sleep quality. Therefore, it is recommended that sleep hygiene education be implemented as a strategy to reduce stress response, and that shift work nurses engage in a moderate level of physical activity to improve their sleep quality.
