Objective : This study aimed to identify the experiences and practices of occupational therapists in mental health and provide interventions for improving body function in individuals with mental illness. Methods : Data were collected from mental health therapists between November 7 and November 14, 2022. A survey was distributed via email and 46 responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics and correlations. Results : The majority were female (58.7%), aged 20-30 years (84.8%), working in mental health centers (41.3%), and undergoing mental health occupational therapy training (91.3%). They had 1-3 years of mental health experience (65.2%) and were commonly involved in programs (71.1%), case management (62.2%), and administration (57.8%). Interventions for physical functioning were common (73.9%), including group interventions (41.2%), such as stretching, aerobic exercise, and walk training, and individual interventions (38.1%), such as walking, stretching, and aerobic exercise. Conclusion : Occupational therapists play a crucial role in enabling individuals with mental illness to engage in daily life activities. However, relevant studies in this field are lacking. This study emphasizes the importance of mental health occupational therapy and the need for evidence-based services for physical function improvement interventions to provide more effective treatments for mental illnesses.

국내 원자력발전소의 발전정지사례에 대해 원전 종사원이 분석한 자료를 수록하여 발간하는 원자력발전소 발전정지사례집을 이용하여 인적오류가 개입된 것으로 판단된 총77건의 불시정지 사례를 추출하여, 인적오류 저감의 우선순위가 높은 원자력발전소 작업분야를 도출하기 위한 분 석을 수행하였다. 이를 이하여, 먼저 인적오류가 개입된 발전소 계통, 인적오유 발생시의 작업상 황 및 작업유형, 그리고인적오류의 유형에 대한 분류체계를 작성하였다. 발전소 근무 경험을 바 탕으로 사례별로 발전정지에 가장 직접적인 영향을 미친 작업행위를 구분하고, 이 행위에 대해 작성된 분류체계의 해당항목을 판정하였다. 이 사례별 분석결과를 이용하여 발전소 계통, 작업상 황, 작업유형, 오류유형 등, 4가지 항목에 대하여 오류발생의 추이를 분석하였으며, 또한 발전소 계통과 작업상황, 계통과 작업유형, 작업상황과 작업유형, 작업유형과 오류유형 등, 항목간 오류 발생 연관성을 조사하였다. 이 결과로 인적오류의 발생률이 높은 발전소 계통, 작업상황, 작업유형 및 오류유형이 구분되었다.

Objective : This study aimed to explore the meaning of work experience of school-based occupatioanl therapists. Methods : This study was a phenomenological study. The participants were 7 school-based occupational therapists, all of whom were female with working experience of 5 years. One-on-One interviews were conducted with them about their work experience as school-based occupational therapists, and additional interview details were confirmed by e-mail. The interviews were recorded with the consent of the subjects. The researcher listened to the recordings several times prior to transcribing and analyzed the interviews according to Colaizzi's research method. Results : A total of 2 themes and 10 sub-themes were derived. Challenges and hopes were drawn as themes. The challenges theme included sub-themes administrative work burden, restriction of physical environment, lack of awareness of teachers, unstable employment, and legal restrictions. There were sub-themes such as sense of mission for children, team members with the same goal, children who want school-based occupational therapy, teacher' satisfaction, and responsibility for the development of school-based occupational therapy. Conclusion : Institutional improvement and policy support for school-based occupational therapy should be prepared to provide qualitatively improved school-based occupational therapy for special education subjects.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to identify musculoskeletal symptom and pain related working posture with operation-room workers. Methods: The subjects of this study were 73 people who were working from hospital operating-room. A questionnaire consisting of general characteristics, pain symptoms, and pain frequency was given. Objective working posture analysis was done by using REBA after recording moving images in hospital operating-rooms. Results: The result were as follows. The risk level of musculoskeletal symptom related working posture was high, and the management level was at the least 2; 'some management was required for musculoskeletal symptom'. The frequency of pain was 3~4 times/week and the severe pain were experienced from legs, neck, and shoulder. The result of relation of general characteristics and pain were significant variable with sex, age, marital status, weight, past working history, average working time(hr/day), working style, and working department. Conclusion: These results contribute to a better understanding of operation-room workers have high possibility of musculoskeletal disease and are severe musculoskeltal pain related working posture.

Due to pandemic situations, the development of home robots that can make the house an optimized space for various activities is active. This study aims to confirm the effectiveness of approach or avoidance behavior for feedback positioning on the user experience, depending on the context in which the robot performs the task. Based on two types of the task contexts(Reactive vs. Proactive) and three types of robot feedback positioning(No move vs. Avoidance vs. Approach), six different scenarios were designed for experimental study. Likeability, perceived intelligence, rapport, negative attitude and predictability of behavior are measured for each conditions. The result showed the main effects of perceived intelligence, rapport, predictability in the context of tasks, and of likability, perceived intelligence, rapport in robot feedback positioning. The interaction effects were shown in likeability and perceived intelligence. In conclusion, approach-avoidance experiences can also be applied to robot behaviors as well, and the negative effects of avoidance have been significantly confirmed.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of intensive one-day training on Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 screening developmental coordination disorder. Methods : We provided intensive one-day training which combined lecture and practice on MABC-2 assessment tools for 33 trainees. Interrater reliability was calculated by using Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) with the raw score of results scored simultaneously by experts and trainees of MABC-2. Results : The 33 female trainees with an average of five years and three months of experience and less experience using motor skill assessment tools scored raw score while watching the performance scenes of normal children. The results of the ICC between experts and training participants in MABC-2 obtained a high confidence 0.95 and above (p<.001). Conclusion : Clinicians who participated in one-day training seems to use MABC-2 effectively. Through this, one-day training seems to be effective in acquiring new motor skill assessment tools.

Weather condition is the uncontrolled factor to influence the project duration. Determining non-working days due to it incorrectly leads to often change the project duration and increase the total cost as well as causing the dispute among stakeholders. When making decision of non-working days, it is important to consider the expert's experience according to the characteristic of the site and local area. Therefore this paper presented the method to estimate non-working days due to wether condition by using fuzzy numbers reflecting expert's subjective experience.

종합병원에서는 많은 환자들의 데이터를 효과적으로 관리하기 위해 각종 자료를 전 산화하고 있으며, 그곳에서 근무하는 간호사들은 VDT (Visual Display Terminal) 앞에서 작업시간의 대부분을 보내야만 한다. 간호사들의 요통 유병률이 타 직종에 비해 높은 편이며, 업무와 관련해서 경험한 요통이 간과되는 경향이 있고, 사고보고를 하지 않는 경우가 많아서 실제의 요통 발생률은 보고된 것보다 더 높을 수 있다［1］는 연구결과가 발표된 바 있으며, 이러한 이유에는 여러 원인이 있겠으나, 그 중에서 특히 VDT작업을 하는 간호사들과 작업환경과의 관계를 규명해 보고자 서울 지역의 일부 종합병원 VDT(Visual Display Terminal) 작업 간호사들을 대상으로 실태조사를 하였다. 본 연구의 목적은 VDT 작업 간호사들의 설문지 응답과 직무분석 그리고 작업자세와 작업환경조건 등을 고려하여 VDT증후군에 대한 위험요인을 파악하고, VDT 관련 직업병 예방대책을 마련하고자 하였다. 설문지 분석결과 종합병원 간호사들의 근무환경 및 업무활동과 통증발생 결과간에 관련성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. RULA 프로그램 분석결과인 Level 5가 나왔으며, 이는 3단계 위험수준을 가리키는 것으로 곧 작업환경을 바꾸어야 하는 것으로 나타났다.

동적 근력작업의 많은 부분이 기계화됨에 따라 상대적으로 정신적 작업의 비율이 높아지고 있다. 그러나 모든 동적 근력작업이 기계로 전환되는 것은 아니다 특히 의료, 복지 및 산업현장의 일부 등의 많은 부분에서 인간의 동적 근력작업에 의존하고 있는 실정인데, 이들 분야에서는 작업주체인 인간의 근육 피로에 수반되는 정신적 피로에 따라 사고의 위험성이 상존하고 있다. 또한 어떤 분야에서는 높은 강도의 동적 근력작업에 병행하여 대소의 정신적 작업이 요구되는 경우가 있는데, 인간은 신체적 활동에 육체적 피로가 수반되면 휴식을 통해 피로를 회복하고자 속성을 지니고 있다. 그러나 육체적 작업 도중 피로가 쌓여도 휴식을 취하는 것이 항상 가능한 것은 아니다. 즉, 생체리듬이 나쁜 때에도 작업을 속행하지 않으면 안 되는 경우도 일상에서 자주 경험할 수 있는데 이러한 상태에서 육체적, 정신적인 위험이 수반될 수 있다.(중략)
