The authors identified a treatment-resistant patient with chronic fatigue syndrome, characterized by chronic fatigue, headache, unrefreshing sleep. Some studies reported that chronic fatigue syndrome was associated with affective disorder, especially seasonal affective disorder and many studies reported that bright light therapy was effective in seasonal affective disorder. But efficacy of light therapy for chronic fatigue syndrome was rarely reported. We treated the patient with morning light treatment using 2500lux light box, the clinical symptoms in this case were improved. The authors suggest that the light therapy can be a treatment modality for chronic fatigue syndrome.

The study was investigate the effect of quality of life of mothers in the postpartum period. This study was a descriptive research study of 113 women who lived in D metropolitan area within 6-8 weeks after birth, Data were analyzed using SPSS 21.0 program ANOVA, t-test, Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple random analysis. Data collection was from August 2018 to September 2018. The results were as follows. The most influential factors on quality of life were parenting stress(${\beta}=-.646$, p =.000), fatigue(${\beta}=-.329$, p =.009). It is necessary to develop a nursing intervention program related to physical and mental health because maternal quality of life leads to lower quality of life when feeling emotional mood change such as emptiness and depression.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of guided imagery activities using music on both mood states and physiological responses of psychiatric inpatients. The experimental group was consisted of 27 psychiatric patients participating in the guided imagery activities using music for 11 minutes. Also, the control group was formed with 27 psychiatric patients with non-musical intervention. Mood states, blood pressure, pulse and skin temperature were checked before and after session. We could see the significant difference in the score of five areas-tension, depression, anger, vigor, fatigue-showed most differences in score. Also, the score of skin temperature of both experimental group and between two groups showed significant differences, too. Therefore, we can conclude that these results were showing that guided imagery activities using music was an effective nursing intervention method for altering mood state of psychiatric patients. Besides, it seemed to have physiological impact to make patients relax tension backed up by change of skin temperature.

사람의 눈은 카메라와 흡사한 구조와 원리를 가지고 있어서 빛을 직접 받는 경우 조리개가 오므라지게 되어 오히려 피사체를 인식하는 데 어려움을 겪는다. 그 이유는 광원과 피사체 간의 조도(밝기) 차이로 설명할 수 있다. 사람의 동공은 눈으로 들어오는 빛의 밝기에 따라 커지고 작아진다. 따라서 광원이 너무 밝은 경우에는 상대적으로 피사체에서 반사된 빛이 안구로 적게 들어와 피사체가 오히려 어두워 보이는 결과를 초래한다. 대부분의 사람들은 이 같은 사실을 간과한채, 조명은 무조건 밝아야 한다고 믿어 왔으며, 그 결과 우리가 속한 모든 건물들은 직접조명 일색이다. 선진국에서는 이미 조명이 인체에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구가 지속적으로 발전함에 따라 이미 오래전부터 간접조명 방식이 채택됐다. 간접조명의 효과는 영역을 넘어서서 건강한 실내 공간을 조성하는 필수적인 요소로 자리매김하고 있다. 이제 현대인들은 눈에 피로감을 주는 노출형 조명보다는 점차 눈을 편하게 해서 몸과 정신의 피로를 릴렉스 시켜주는 간접조명방식으로 나아가야 할 것이다.

선원은 충분한 수면으로 신체적 정신적 피로를 완전히 회복하지 못한 수면부족 상태에서 재승선하여 장기간 항해와 흔들리는 선박 위에서 반복적인 작업 활동을 수행하므로 누적 피로도와 스트레스가 증가하는 악순환을 초래하며 이로 인한 해양 인적사고가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 사람의 주관적인 판단에 의한 자기평가방법으로 기입하는 설문지 분석이 아닌 선박에 승선하는 동안에 Wearable device를 착용한 상태에서 과학적이고 객관적인 선원의 수면 시간과 효율성을 분석하였다.

현대 사회는 육체적·정신적 활동을 많이 요구하게 되며 이러한 현상으로 스트레스의 증가와 이유없는 증후군의 발병이 점차 확대되고 있다. 특히 스트레스로 인한 피로의 누적으로 인체의 혈액 농도 및 순환에 영향을 끼치게 되며 이로 인해 신장의 상태가 악화될 수 있다. 따라서 신장의 이상 유무를 조기에 판단하여 적절한 조치를 취하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다. 이를 위해 본 논문에서는 신장 질환을 앓고 있는 환자와 정상인을 대상으로 피실험자 집단군을 각각 구성하고 음성 정보의 형태학적 분석과 수치학적 분석을 실험으로 출력하고 결과값에 대해 비교·분석을 행하고자 한다. 최종적으로 실험을 통해 신장과 음성과의 관계를 정립하고자 한다.

Continuous use of SNS with having SNS fatigue influences users mentally as well as physically. Although it is reported that they eventually leave SNS due to experience of fatigue, the determinants of SNS fatigue have not been discovered yet. Thus this study aims to find the psychological factors causing SNS fatigue. This study (1) found out the factors causing SNS fatigue, and (2) explored the relationships between the factors and intentions to discontinue/continue to use SNS. Findings of the study suggested that there are seven types of determinants: Sense of relative deprivation, Relationship concern, Management burden, Information overload, Privacy concern, Reputation concern(after posting), Reputation concern(before posting). It is also found that sense of relative deprivation negatively predicted the intention to keep using SNS while management burden, reputation concern(before posting) predicted positively. Furthermore, the sense of relative deprivation and information overload positively predicted the intention to discontinue using SNS while reputation concern(before posting) predicted negatively. This research examined how the determinants of SNS fatigue affect the intentions to keep/stop using SNS from the two different points of view. The determinants of SNS fatigue experienced by SNS viewers influenced them to have intentions to stop using it, whereas those felt by SNS writers affected them to keep using it.

Objectives : This study aims to identify various psychiatric symptoms and psychosomatic symptoms caused by COVID-19 infection and investigate their long-term impact. Methods : A systematic literature review was conducted, selecting papers from domestic and international databases using keywords such as "COVID-19" and "psychosomatic." A total of 16 papers, including those using structured measurement tools for psychosomatic symptoms, were included in the final analysis. Results : Psychiatric symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and somatic symptoms have been reported in acute COVID-19 infection, while long-term post-COVID symptoms include chest pain and fatigue. The frequency of long-term psychosomatic symptoms has been estimated to be 10%-20%. Factors contributing to these symptoms include psychological and social stress related to infectious diseases, gender, elderly age, a history of psychiatric disorders, and comorbid mental illnesses. It is suggested that systemic inflammation, autoimmune responses, and dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system may be involved. Conclusions : Psychosomatic symptoms arising after COVID-19 infection have a negative impact on quality of life and psychosocial functioning. Understanding and addressing psychiatric aspects are crucial for symptom prevention and treatment.

This research examined the correlation among sleep, fatigue and quality of life of stroke patients. Data regarding the quality of sleep, sleep satisfaction, fatigue and quality of life was collected from 37 stroke patients using questionnaires. The data was analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis. The results suggested that the quality of sleep is associated with sleep satisfaction and fatigue, and the level of sleep satisfaction is associated with the feelings of fatigue and quality of life. After the occurrence of stroke, most people experience insomnia and complain of physical and mental feelings of fatigue depending on the quality and level of satisfaction with sleep, as well as a decrease in the quality of life. Therefore, for the effective intervention of occupational therapy, it will be necessary to examine the sleep-related factors.

The subjects include the patients that were Stroke was diagnosed and being admitted to hospital. The data of total 223 stroke patients were used in analysis. Collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation, and Structural Equation Analysis. As a result, The higher medical support health promotion behavior scores were higher. Health Promotion Behavior had correlations with the subjective health state(r=.56, p=.000), family support (r=.68, p=.000), medical support(r=.65, p=.000), Fatigue(r=.27, p=.004), and behavioral intentions(r=.75, p=.000). Factors Affecting Health Promotion Behaviors of the Stroke patients Physically factors of(${\beta}$=-.156, p=.014), Psychological factors of subjective health(${\beta}$ =.283, p=.001), behavioral intentions((${\beta}$=.362, p=.000), Social factors such as family support(${\beta}$=.219, p=.010), the medical support(${\beta}$=.246, p=.004) was found to be significant influence factors. In conclusion, health promotion behavior in stroke patients is subjective health, behavioral intentions, a family support. The higher medical support health promoting behavior appears score was found to be highly Psychological factors and social factors are important factors in promoting healthy behavior. Therefore, psychosocial personalized approach to maintaining the stroke health promotion, health promotion action program itdaneunde be used as basis for relapse prevention is significant.
