Based on the study of the lineage groups around Gyeongju City and the migrants from North Korea, it is recognized that any one of Korean group identities has not been naturally formed over a long time, but socially constructed. One of the project for the Korean human geography orienting toward Korean Studies is to examine, from the place perspective, the complicated and contested identities that modern Koreans are today sharing individually as well as in a group. From such an examination. it can explore specifically the future shape of the Korean identity upon which everybody can agree. To make the project successful, Korean Human Geography needs to start from the study of a specific place that would expose the triangular relations among the three elements: identity, place, ideology or power.

The goal of this study is to try to grasp the general feature, familism, and social support network of the separated family who came south over the border, on them who are residing inland, as a part of the work to clarify the diverse form and specialty that Korean family have. To summarize the result simply is as follows: 1. The difference is showing, between separated family and non-separated family, in the family preference and the consciousness to respect parents, among the range of familism. That is, in case of the separated family, family preference and the consciousness to respect parents showed higher, in comparison with the non-separated family. 2. Between separated family and non-separated family, the difference showed only in the support network of relative. So, the support network of relative of non-separated family showed higher than that of separated family. Through above conclusion, the situation which is the losing native place and the separated which occurred due to war and the dividing into sections is influencing our family life. But, on the other hand, it can be seen that the influence is becoming void gradually.

간흡충은 우리나라를 비롯하여 중국, 대만, 일본 및 월남등지에 널리 분포되어 있으며 1947년에 Stoll씨의 통계에 의하면 세계적으로 1,900만명이 넘는 감염자가 있다고 하였다. 현재 우리나라에서만 약 200만명의 간흡충 감염자가 있을 것으로 추산되고 있다. 간흡충은 McConnell이 1874년에 인도의 Calcutta에서 한 중국인의 간담도에서 본충을 처음 발견한 것이다. 이것을 Cobbold(1875)가 Distoma sinense라고 명명하였다가 후에 Looss (1907)가 Clonorchis sinensis라고 하였다. Kobayashi (1910)는 담수어가 간흡충감염의 중간숙주로 작용한다는 것을 처음으로 발견하였고 Muto (1918)에 의하여 왜우렁이가 제1중간숙주임을 발견함으로서 간흉충의 생활사가 확실해 졌다. Faust 및 Khaw (1927)에 의하여 중국에서 간흡충의 생물학 및 역학에 관한 광범한 연구업적이 발표된 이래 일본, 한국, 중국등 여러곳에서 많은 사람들에 의하여 연구되어 왔다. 그러나 적절한 치료방법이 없었고 또 민물고기를 생식하는 식습관과 위생시설의 미비등 여러가지 요인때문에 예방이 어려움에 직면하였다. 최근 다행히 새로이 개 발된 praziquantel이 간흡충중에 대하여 우수한 치료효과를 나타내고 집단치료에도 적합하다는 것이 증명됨으로서 간흡충증 예방과 관리에 큰 서광이 보이게 되었다. 따라서 간흉충증의 발생과 임상적 병증의 중요성을 좀 더 이해하기 위하여 간흡충체의 미세구조, 병인, 역학, 임상증상등 최근 알려진 새로운 지견과 우리나라에 있어서 간흡충증의 분포 및 유행지 형성 상황을 수학적으로 역학적 분석을 시도하였다. 그리고 과거 간흡충중의 화학치료에 관한 연구성적을 종합하여 화학요법제의 특성 빚 치료 적용여부에 대하여 논하였고 각약제의 시험관내 및 실험동물에 있어서의 살충효과와 임상시험에 있어서의 치료효과 및 부작용에 대하여 기술하였다. 그리고 새로 개발된 praziquantel의 간흡충에 대한 작용기전에 대하여도 논하였다.

During the 35 month period from November 1966 to November 1967 and from June 1971 to March 1973 I had experienced 127 cases of non fatal wounds of chest in Viet-Nam. .Among these 127 cases, 62[45.4%] were gun shot wounds, 49[35.8%] were shrapnel wounds and the other were traffic accident. stab wounds and miscellanous. Approximately 21% of gun shot wound were perforating and 79% were penetrating but all cases of shrapnel wounds were penetrating. Of these 127 cases. 90% evacuated to hospital within 6 hours and average time 2.5 hours. The tranfusion requirement of these cases ranged from zero to 36 pints of whole blood with an average of 2.600cc. Initial intrathoracic findings were hemopneumothorax and hemothorax mostly. and the incidence of open thoracotomy was 9.5%[12cases] and closed thoracotomy was 82.8%[104cases], which were contrast to the reports from Korean conflict. I had experienced 24 cases with complication, such as large hematoma in lung parenchyme[8 cases], atelectasis[4 cases], pyothorax [3 cases], pneumonia [3 cases], fibrothorax [3 cases], pleural effusion [2 cases] and wound infection [2 cases]. Mortality rate for entire group was 4.7% but the cases associated with brain injury was 100%, with spinal cord injury was 50%, with large vessel 50%, and abdominal injury was 33.3%, and nobody died solely of thoracic injury.

The miraculous growth of Korean economy and its business corporations during 1960' s and 1970's are mainly due to the government leadership and its market intervention. We can find the reasons why the government initiated economic growth plan was so successful in Korea in its efficient bureaucratic government system and fair discipline to the corporations based on its contribution to the economy. During 1960's, the primary factors for the growth of business entities and the formation of business groups were the financial special favor, the preferential treatment in the new industry entrance and the merge & acquisition, lavish export incentives from the government, and the export explosion to Vietnam. During 1970's, the substantial deduction of corporations' private debt, enormous support in heavy industry investment, special benefits to general trading companies by the government, and the construction export to the Middle-East were the main causes of the business growth and the business groups formation. Also, the economic rent for the big companies had still been effective since 1960's. However, the preferential benefit to the big companies made them to diversify into the unrelated business ares and to be in very vulnerable financial position. The governmental support brought about the monopoly as well.

Objectives : The three symptom clusters of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) are reexperience, avoidance, and hyperarousal. Alcohol use disorders frequently co-occur with PTSD, and possible functional correlations are suspected. Scholarly evaluation of the differences between the symptoms of PTSD and those of alcohol problems may be useful in understanding the pathophysiology of the comorbidity. Methods : We recruited Vietnam veterans with PTSD (n=97) and without PTSD (n=132). The alcohol use disorder identification test (AUDIT), and clinician-administered PTSD scale (CAPS) were administered to participants. The PTSD group was divided into two categories: those with PTSD only (n=57) and those with concurrent alcohol-related problems (n=40). Results : The PTSD group showed higher AUDIT scores compared to the control group. In the PTSD group, participants with alcohol problems had a severer symptoms of recurrent dream and sleep disturbance symptoms compared to the PTSD only group. No significant differences were found in the three major symptom clusters of PTSD. Conclusion : These findings support the proposed existence of a functional correlation between PTSD and alcohol use disorder. Clinicians should carefully evaluate and treat comorbid alcohol use disorder in patients with PTSD.

Objective : The PTSD Checklist (PCL) is a self-report screen for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) that can be scored for both diagnostic assessment and symptom severity measurement. The most recent revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) contains a number of changes to the definition of PTSD, and the aim of this study was to assess the psychometric properties of the Korean version of the PCL for the DSM-5 (PCL-5-K). Methods : The participants were 204 Korean veterans of the Vietnam War who completed the PCL-5-K, the Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE), PTSD module of Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-5, Research Version (SCID5-RV PTSD module), Korean version of Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R-K) and Combat Exposure Scale (CES-K). Results : The PCL-5-K demonstrated good internal consistency (${\alpha}=0.972$) and test-retest reliability (r=0.96); the suggested cut-off score for PTSD diagnosis was ${\geq}37$ with 0.88 sensitivity and 0.96 specificity. The PCL-5-K scale correlated highly with the IES-R-K and CES-K. Factor analysis identified only one factor. Conclusion : Among elderly Korean veterans of the Vietnam War, the PCL-5-K demonstrated similar psychometric qualities to those of both the original PCL and subsequent versions. It is expected that the PCL-5-K will be a useful PTSD screening tool.

Objectives : This study was performed to evaluate the effects of PTSD on memory function, to investigate the difference of memory function between PTSD and non-PTSD patients, and to identify major variables correlated to PTSD scale and Memory Assessment Scale. Methods: The authors used PTSD-scale(Mississippi scale and Combat Exposure Scale) for measuring PTSD severity. And, Beck Depression Inventory was also used. Memory assessment scale was assessed by well trained psychologist. Thirty one Vietnam veterans who had been hospitalized were collected consecutively. These patients were evaluated by psychiatrists with interview and measurement for fifteen months since March, 1997. The collected data were analyzed by SPSS and the stastistic methods used for analysis Chi-square, t-test, and Pearson's correlation. Results : 1) There were significant differences in short-term memory and verbal memory between PTSD and non-PTSD in Vietnam veterans. 2) Mississippi scale and Combat Exposure Scale were negatively correlated to short-term memory and verbal memory(Pearson's correlation). 3) Religion status was a significant variable between PTSD and non-PTSD in Vietnam veterans. 4) There is no significant difference in visual memory and total memory scale between PTSD and Non-PTSD in Vietnam veterans Conclusions : Neuropsychological changes were found in the posttraumatic stress disorder. There were significant differences in short-term memory and verbal memory between PTSD and non-PTSD in Vietnam veterans. Mississippi scale and Combat Exposure Scale were negatively correlated to short-term memory and verbal memory. We suggest that neuropsychological test might be used for an objective assessment of patients with the combat related PTSD and be considered helpful in the assessment of patients with the diagnosis. And we also suggest rehabilitation strategies would be used to compensate for memory deficits in PTSD patients.
