This pilot study investigated the effects of a portable computerized cognitive training system on the visual-perceptual function of stroke patients with mild cognitive impairment. Subjects were twelve stroke patients with mild cognitive impairment, who were assigned to an experimental group (n=6) or a control group (n=6). All subjects were trained in their respective groups for 30 min/day, five times a week, for four weeks. In each session, the experimental group received a portable computerized cognitive training program, and the control group received conventional cognitive training. The Motor-Free Visual Perception-3 (MVPT-3) was used to measure subjects' visual-perceptual ability. The MVPT-3 total scores for both groups significantly improved after the intervention (p<.05). The total score on the MVPT-3 and the score on the visual short-term memory subcategory of the MVPT-3 significantly improved for the experimental group compared to the control group (p<.05). These findings suggest that the portable computerized cognitive training system might be effective to improve the visual-perceptual function of stroke patients with mild cognitive impairment.

본 논문에서는 기존의 인지 영상 부호화에 사용되던 Just Noticeable Distortion(JND) 보다 더 압축에 적합한 모델인 Just Noticeable Quantization Distortion(JNQD) 모델을 제시하고, 이를 사용한 인지적 영상 압축 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 인지적 영상 압축 방식은 영상 코덱 내부의 Rate-Distortion Optimization(RDO)을 수정하지 않고 입력되는 영상의 불필요한 정보들을 미리 제거하는 전처리 과정으로서, JNQD 모델을 사용하여 보다 간단하면서 압축 효율을 크게 증가 시킬 수 있다. 기존 영상 압축의 전처리 방법들은 부호화기의 양자화 값을 전처리 과정에서 고려하지 못하여 부정확한 인지 중복성 제거 결과를 초래하였으나, 제안하는 방법은 영상의 특성뿐만 아니라 양자화 크기 값을 고려하여 적응적으로 인지 왜곡이 발생하지 않는 주관적 인지 중복성 제거를 전처리 과정에서 수행할 수 있다. 거의 유사한 주관적 품질 수준을 유지하면서 HEVC 참조 소프트웨어 대비 약 15%의 압축효율 향상을 보인다.

본 논문에서는 확률적 자연언어 처리에서 중요한 문제인 자료 희귀(data sparseness)의 어려움을 해결하는 새로운 방법으로 차원 축소 모델을 제시한다. 세 가지의 세부 방법이 제안되었으며 Katz의 back-off 방법의 성능을 최저로 했을 때에 비해 약 60%정도의 성능이 향상되었다. 현재까지 최고의 성능을 보이고 있는 유사도 기반의 방법에 비해서도 약 5∼20%의 성능이 향상되었다. 따라서 차원 축소 모델은 확률 추정의 새로운 방법으로 쓰일 수 있다.

This study was conducted to identify the influence of the convergent lifestyles of the elderly consisting of physical exercise, smoking, drinking and social participation and the types of social participation on the risk of cognitive decline by using the 6th Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing(KLoSA). Total 4,298 people aged 65 or older were included. Results show that all of lifestyle factors are significantly effected to prevent cognitive decline, social participation was derived as the most important explanatory variable to lower the risk of cognitive decline. In addition, participating in the religious groups, ascriptive groups, and expressive groups lowered the risk of cognitive decline. Therefore, active support at the community and policy for improving the convergent lifestyle of the elderly are needed.

편마비 환자의 인지 기능과 운동 및 신체적 기능에 관련된 변인을 분석하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 인지 기능이 편마비 환자에게 미치는 영향과 인지 영역의 손상이 편마비 환자의 독립적 기능 및 수준 향상의 예언 인자로서의 고려해야 할 개념을 검사나 평가 척도로 비교, 분석 하였다. 연구 대상은 전라북도에 소재한 한방병원에 입원 및 통원하고 있는 52-73세의 연령 범위에 있는 편마비환자 20명 이다. 편마비 환자의 기능적 능력, 운동 회복, 신체적 기능 그리고 인지적 상태를 평가하기 위해 편마비 환자를 위한 임상적 결과 변인 척도, 운동 평가 척도와 바델 척도 그리고 기능적 독립성 측정 척도를 평가도구로 사용하였다. 편마비 환자의 신체적, 운동 그리고 기능적 능력 상태를 평가도구에 의해 측정된 결과를 분석한 바 운동, 신체적 그리고 인지적인 영역과 기능적 독립 측정 척도 및 바델 척도와 관련성이 있음을 보여주고 있다. 편마비 환자의 신체적, 인지적 결함이나 손상 부위, 손상의 본질에 따른 대상의 선정과 운동 조절 형태에 관한 지식 그리고 인지와 신경학적 결함 정도를 심도있게 다루어 기능적 능력 향상의 임상적 효과를 높이고자 하는데 연구의 의의가 있다.

This study aims to understand the effects of a Computer - based Cognitive Rehabilitation Therapy(CBCRT) evidence based on mild dementia patients' ability to activities daily living(ADL), cognitive function and measure of occupational performance and to suggest basic data for a cognitive rehabilitation therapy for dementia patients. Method : A CBCRT was applied two times a week for 5 weeks to 14 mild dementia patients who visited Yongin Center for Managing Dementia in Gyeongi-do between February and August 2009. Based on frame of reference for Visual-Perception a CBCRT was applied at home. Moreover, a one group pretest-post test design was, which is a quasi-experiment and research, also applied in order to verify the effects of the rehabilitation therapy on the subjects' ability to ADL, cognitive function and occupational performance skills. Results: A significant effect was confirmed (p<.05) from the CBCRT which Assessment of Motor and Process Skills(AMPS) processing skills and cognitive function and occupational performance skills. Neither was found any significant effect in improving motor skills from AMPS. Conclusion: It seems that a CBCRT based on evidence and has an effect on the improvement of the ability to ADL and cognitive function of mild dementia patients living in a community. The present author hopes that, in the future, more cognitive rehabilitation programs will be developed to improve the functions of mild dementia patients living in a community.

This study identified effect size of cognition improvement programs developed for normal elderly in Korea. By searching four databases, 9,624 studies published from 2000 to 2016 were identified. Finally, 14 studies which satisfied the inclusion criteria were selected for meta-analysis. Quality assessment of included studies was conducted using controlled trial checklist of Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network. R version 3.3.2 (2016-10-31) with "meta" and "metafor" package was used to calculate effect sizes, identify the reasons of heterogeneity, and check publication bias. Total effect size of cognition improvement program was middle (SMD=0.759, p<.001, $I^2=34%$). For heterogeneity, moderator analysis was executed and combined program with exercise had the largest effect size (SMD=1.231, p<.001, $I^2=40.8%$). Publication bias was exist by funnel plot and Egger 's regression test, but trim and fill analysis showed that there was no serious error to reverse study results. Therefore, Combined program with exercise for the normal elderly was expected to improve the cognitive function of the normal elderly.

The purpose of this research was to examine changes in the physical fitness, activities of daily living performance, and cognitive status of the frail elderly by combined exercise programs. The combined exercise program consisted of an aerobic exercise for the elderly and a four-color ladder exercise for improving of cognitive ability and physical fitness. Twenty-one frail elderly participated in this study, they were divided into 12 exercise groups and nine control groups. The exercise group conducted the combined exercise program of 60 minutes, twice a week, for10 weeks, while the control group maintained their normal lives. Strength, flexibility, agility, coordination, ADL and MMSE-K were measured. Exercise group showed significant improvement in grip strength compared to control group. In addition, ADL showed significant improvement only in the exercise group. The results of this study showed that participation in the combined exercise program of the el derl y was effective in improving the grip strength, and in preventing various physical functions and cognitive conditions decline.

현재 교사를 위한 다양한 인격 연수가 시행되고 있다. 그러나 연수 내용을 살펴보면 교사 연수의 핵심이라고 할 수 있는 교수법 향상에 관련된 내용보다는 교과의 전문지식이나 기능적인 부분에 대해 더 많이 다루고 있는 것이 사실이다. 교사들은 대학에서 뿐만 아니라 교육 현장에서 자기 연수 혹은 연수 기관을 통해 끊임없이 교수법 향상을 위해 노력해야한다 연수 기관에서 그룹별 토의 시스템, 동영상 동기화 교수-학습 지도안 제작 도구, 교수학습 DB 등으로 구성된 인지적 도제 모델형 원격 연수 시스템을 이용한다면 좀 더 나은 교수법 향상을 기대할 수 있을 것이다.

The present study investigated the related variables of cognitive function, subjective cognitive decline and cognitive training effects. The cognitive training was composed of mete-cognitive education and cognitive task performing. Twenty older adults attended for 14 weeks and were tested before and after the training. Results show that their cognitive level was related with age, self-esteem and personality traits. And subjective cognitive decline was related depression, anxiety, personality traits, self-efficacy, self-esteem and subjective age, but it does not reflect objective cognitive impairments. Their cognitive test scores were enhanced after training in MMSE, memory and executive function, and enhanced scores were related with age, subjective cognitive decline, anxiety, self-efficacy, self-esteem, subjective age and personality traits. Findings suggest one's personality and psychological state need to be considered for the effects of cognitive training.
