Adolescence is a critical period of mental disorder. A teacher, as a significant other, is an important social supporter for adolescents. The purpose of this study is to develop bibliotherapy programs for teachers as a school-based prevention program which helps improve the mental health of adolescents. Two programs are designed for teachers. One is for a teacher as an ordinary person in his/her daily life and the other is for a teacher as a significant other of adolescents.

So far, most research studying the causality of autism has focused on neurobiological or psychological aspects. However, most studies have dealt with only proximal causality of autism, and there is little research on its ultimate causality. 'Evolutionary perspective', which has received attention recently in various academic fields, suggests several theories regarding the ultimate causality of autism. We reviewed different theories on the evolution of autism, and discussed both the merits and the limitations of the theories.

This study is attempted to examine Korean teachers’ perceptions of mental health problems in students and their attitudes towards psychiatric consultations through a questionnaire survey. The results of this study are as follows. 1) Teachers thought that 5.3% of their students had mental health problems, 1.9% of students required psychiatric evaluation, and 1.2% of students were referred or recommended psychiatric evaluation by their teachers. 2) The most frequent mental health problems in students discovered by teachers were distractibility and inattention, lack of academic skills, and language difficulties in elementary schools；distractibility and inattention, conduct problems, and lack of academic skills in middle schools；and conduct problems, distractibility and inattention, physical symptoms, and substance abuse in high schools. 3) Teachers thought the mental health problems in students were caused by the family environment, psychological factors, the educational system, and a lack of mental health services. 4) Teachers desired smaller classes, improvement of the school environment, more time, regular mental health education, a special program for students with mental health problems, and the counseling staffs or consultants for the school mental health. 5) Teachers consulted with other teachers, the parents of the students, the counseling teachers, the health care teachers, the counseling institutes, the psychiatric clinics, and the principals in descending order to handle the hard case problems. The frequent reasons for failing in psychiatric consultations were the prejudice of parents against psychiatric services, the teachers’ sense of superiority in dealing with the problems of students, the prejudice of teachers themselves against psychiatric practice, and inaccessible professional consultation. 6) About 20.4% of teachers reported they had proposed psychiatric consultations or had recommended their students to receive psychiatric evaluations.

The College entrance examination stress syndrome is a kind of anxiety disorder. The underlying cause of this disorder is not a test anxiety itself. One's hidden inner and familial conflicts are more likely attributed to this disorder. Patient's the most common complaints are various psychosomatic symptoms but in severe cases underlying psychopathology may be activated and progress to major psychosis. In a broad sense adolescent's delinguent behavior, drug abuse, school drop-out and sucide are closely related to this syndrome. In clinical management of these patients, considering the special situation of impending examination, the therapist must access to central conflict theme in a short time without severe resistance. The authors classified this syndrome into 5 clinical subtypes ; 'the anxious group', 'the exhaustion group', 'the despair group', 'the emptyness group' and 'the boredome group'. Typical case of each subtype and it's management methods were presented briefly.

새 천년으로 들어선 2000년도부터 우리나라의 65세 이상 노령인구는 $7.1{\%}$를 차지하게 되어 본격적인 노령화사회 (UN에서 65세 이상인구가 총 인구의 $7{\%}$ 이상일 경우 노령화 사회로 정의)로 진입하였다. 평균수명의 계속적인 증가에 따라 노인 인구는 급격히 늘어날 전망이며, 따라서 노인성 질환의 발생도 늘어나게 되어 가정 또는 사회가 떠 맡아야할 경제적, 정신적 부담은 더욱 증가하게 된다. 건강하고 행복한 인생의 황혼기를 보내는 것은 인간의 권리이며 누구나 바라는 소망이다. 피부의 노화현상은 심장질환, 암 등에 못지 않게 중요하며, 노인의 경제적, 사회적 활동을 심각하게 위축시키고 있다. 피부노화를 예방하고 노인성 피부질환을 치료할 수 있는 방법을 개발함으로써 노인의 경제, 사회활동을 활동적으로 유지시킬 수 있다. 피부노화는 크게 두 종류로 나눌 수 있다. 그 한가지는 내인성노화(intrinsic aging)로서 세월이 흘러감에 따라 피할 수 없는 노화 현상을 말한다. 두번째는 광노화 (photoaging)로서 오랫동안 햇빛에 노출된 얼굴, 손등, 목뒤 등의 피부에서 관찰되는 노화현상을 말하는 것으로 내인성노화 현상과 자외선에 의한 영향이 합쳐진 결과로 발생한다. 광노화 현상은 자외선의 노출을 피하면 예방할 수 있는 피부노화 현상이다. 내인성 노화는 햇빛에 노출되지 않은 피부에서 주로 관찰된다. 임상적 특징은 비교적 경미하며, 잔주름, 피부건조증, 탄력감소 등을 들 수 있다. 그러나 광노화의 임상적 특징은 내인성 노화에 비하여 심하고, 일찍부터 관찰된다. 내인성 노화에 비하여 굵고 깊은 주름이 발생하며, 잔주름도 많이 발생한다. 햇빛에 노출된 피부에 불규칙한 색소침착이 발생하며 일광흑자 (solar lentigo) 등의 색소질환이 증가한다. 피부가 매우 거칠고, 건조해지며, 탄력성이 감소하여 심한경우 피부가 처지게 된다. 피부노화의 대표적인 증상은 주름살이며, 아직까지 그 발생기전에 대하여는 여러 가지 학설이 있으나 정확히 알려져 있지 않다. 피부에 존재하는 교원질, 탄력섬유등 기질단백질의 손상이 피부 주름살의 주 원인으로 알려져 있다. 또한 얼굴에 존재하는 근육의 분포와 움직임, 유전적 소인, 자외선, 흡연, 폐경, 산화적 손상, 열 등 여러 원인이 복합적으로 작용할 것으로 생각된다. 피부주름살의 원인을 밝히고, 원인인자가 피부주름살을 초래하는 분자생물학적 기전을 이해함으로써 주름살을 예방하고 치료할 수 있는 새로운 방법을 개발할 수 있다.

Objectives : This study intends to assess the associations among perceived stigma at the time of infection, coping strategies adopted 12 months later and depressive and posttraumatic symptoms 24 months later in Middle Eastern Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) survivors. Methods : A nationwide cohort study was conducted on 63 survivors of 2015 MERS outbreak. Demographic data, illness severity of MERS, depression and posttraumatic stress symptoms, coping strategies and MERS-related stigma were collected 12 and 24 months after the MERS outbreak, respectively. Results : Higher levels of perceived stigma at the time of outbreak were associated with higher levels of dysfunctional coping strategies after 12 months (p=0.003) and more severe depressive (p=0.058) and posttraumatic stress symptoms (p=0.011) after 24 months. Moreover, higher levels of dysfunctional coping strategies after 12 months were significantly associated with more severe depressive (p=0.002) and posttraumatic stress symptoms (p<0.001) after 24 months. Conclusions : Social stigma against people who have contracted an emerging infectious disease can leave a negative impact on the mental health of the survivors in the long term. In case of novel pandemics in the future, prompt rectification of stigma and promotion of adaptive coping strategies in survivors are needed.

$Br{\aa}nemark^{\prime}s$ original protocol required 4 to 6 months for implant osseointegration before placement of the definitive prosthesis. Although this approach gave very predictable results, it had certain drawbacks. The main disadvantages of this approach were prolonged treatment time, two surgical procedures, placement of a removable prosthesis that required modifications during the course of treatment, and a greater number of appointments. Immediate implant loading is a viable treatment method for selected cases. One of the greatest advantages of this method is the virtual surgery, which precedes the actual clinical treatment and eliminates any need for last minute decisions. The actual surgery time is decreased, since all steps are predetermined. These advantages aren't only more useful for normal patients but also for the mental retardation patients whose cooperation is difficult. This article presents a clinical approach made possible due to the guided implant surgery and CAD/CAM technique.

대부분의 정신과적 위기 (자살시도.도주 공격적 파괴적행동.싸움 등)는 노여움이 원인이 되는데 심한 불안. 초초나 또는 규칙등을 위반하였을 때에. 고지식한 병원직원들의 마구 다툼에 의해서 자신의 권리나 존엄성을 모욕 받았다고 생각될 때 그것에 대한 반응으로 일어나게 된다. 이러한 환자들의 흥분및 공격적 파괴적 행동들에 대해서 우리 간호원들은 과연 겁내야 하며 곧 진정제를 투여하거나 강박의를 입혀야 하는가 하는 것이 이 연구의 촛점이다. 본인은 이러한 환자들의 위기상황에 성급한 행동들이 주어지기에 앞서 과학적이고 체계적인 간호적 이해가 따른다면 환자들의 태도는 휠씬 달라질 수 있을 것이라는 가정하에 국립정신 병원에서 1973년 6월 1일부터 9월30일까지 실험군 10명. 통제군 10명의 환자에게 관찰기 (5일). 간호기(5일). 후반기 (5일)로 나누어 실험군에는 간호기에 유효적절한 과학적 체계적 간호를 실시하고. 통제군에는 실시하지 않음으로써 그 효과도를 검증하였다. 환자의 치료에는 간호적 치료이외에도 약물요법, 정신치료. 충격요법 등 관계 요인이 많으므로. 이러한 기간동안의 환자의 행동변화가 간호적 치료 (Nursing Therapy)에 의해 변화된 것인가를 확인하기 위해 검증하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. (P<.01) 표6. 7에서 관찰기. 간호기. 후반기 동안의 정신과 응급 행동의 빈도는, 실험군에서는 15.4. 7.0. 2.9 로 감소되어 p <.01의 수준에서 의미 있는 변화임이 밝혀졌고, 통제군에서는 10.6. 6.9. 6.6으로 행동빈도가 감소되었으나 p >.05의 수준에서 의미 있는 변화가 아님을 보이고 있다. 위의 결과들로 미루어 본 연구는 다음과 같은 결론을 내릴 수 있을 것이라고 생각한다. \circled1환자의 위기 행동에 관한 사전의 이해없이 무조건의 안정제 투여와 강박의 사용은 금해야 할 것이다. \circled2유효 적절한 자학적 체계적 간호치료 (Scientific & Systematic Nursing Therapy 로서 정신과적 위기는 해 결될 수 있을 것이다. \circled3간호원은 치료적 요원의 역할을 담당할 수 있을 것이다. 본 논문을 시종 지도하여 주신 이부영선생님과 조언을 주신 이은옥 선생님. 이귀향 선생님. 그리고 국립정신병원의 김종해선생님, 보건대학원의 이영환 선생님께 진심으로 감사를 드리며. 아울러, 실험에 협력하여 주신 모든 분들께도 감사를 드립니다.

Objectives：Mental health problems have been found to be more common among juvenile delinquents. This report assessed the reliability, and validity of the MAYSI-2K(Massachusettes Youth Screening Instrument-2 Korean) in Korean delinquents to examine the utility as a screening measure. Methods：The study consisted of 119 male juvenile youths(mean age 16) who admitted in the probation & detention office. They completed an assessment battery including MAYSI-2K and K-YSR(Korean-Youth Self Report) upon entry. Factor analysis, reliability test, and validity test were conducted. Results：The results of factor analysis represented 14 factors which showed more factor structures in comparison with published factor loadings of 7 in the MAYSI. In factor analysis according to the each subscale of the MAYSI, the internal coefficients of 7 subscales ranged from .142 to .756. Test-retest reliability revealed significant correlations(r= .84). There were significant correlations among subscales of MAYSI-2K and K-YSR. Conclusion：Our findings suggested that MAYSI-2K might be a useful screening measure. But further studies with extended number of subjects and culturally appropriate items are required for clinical utility of the MAYSI-2K in Korean delinquents.
