본 연구는 40~60세의 중년여성을 대상으로 뉴로피드백 실험군 17명, 두개천골요법 실험군 17명, 혼합요법 실험군 19명, 대조군에 18명 등 총 71명을, 2007년 10월 1일부터 12월 14일까지 11주 동안 뉴로피드백(이하 NF), 두개천골요법(이하 CST) 및 이 두 요법의 혼합요법(이하 MT)을 적용하여 중년기 여성의 피로와 스트레스 감소 및 뇌기능 향상과 MT군의 시너지효과를 검증하고자 시도한 비동등성 대조군 전후 설계인 유사 실험 연구이다. 그 결과 1)NF, CST 및 MT는 중년여성의 피로와 스트레스를 감소시키고 두뇌 활성화를 통한 뇌기능을 향상시키는데 효과가 있었다. 2)전두엽의 활성화는 NF는 좌뇌를 CST는 우뇌를 활성화시켰다. 3)MT군은 두 군에 비하여 약간 더 효과가 있었다. 4)차시별 효과는 실험군 모두에서 10차시에서 유의한 증가를 보였다.

This study is a narrative research study to investigate the knowledge, attitudes and preventive behaviors of middle-aged adults with dementia and to identify related factors. The study subjects were a total of 230 middle-aged adults living in K and P cities, and data were collected from March 2018 to July 2019 using a structured questionnaire. Collected data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS / WIN 23.0 program. As a result of the study, the knowledge of dementia was 9.97 out of 15, the attitude of dementia was 47.45 out of 60, and the prevention of dementia was 27.75 out of 36. Knowledge of dementia had a positive correlation with dementia attitude (r=.122, p=.050) and dementia prevention behavior (r=.122, p<.05). Factors affecting dementia prevention behavior include marital status (β=.129, p<.05), education level (β=.219, p<.000), and type of disease (β=-.108, p<.000), presence of religion (β =-. 219, p <.000), interest in dementia (β=.237, p<.000), presence of drinking (β=.317, p<.000), smokingPresence or absence (β=.235, p<.000) and knowledge of dementia β=.316, p<.000) were found to have a significant effect. Therefore, in order to improve dementia prevention behavior of middle-aged adults, it is necessary to develop customized education programs for middle-aged adults to practice knowledge of dementia, positive attitudes, and good lifestyle.

Data were collected by means of self reported questionnaires from June 1 to 30. and analyzed by using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe's test, Pearson's correlation coefficients and multiple regression with SPSS windows version 21.0. There were statistically significant differences in the quality of life health according to the frequency of hope, frequency of perceiver health status, frequency of self esteem and post traumatic state. There were significant positive correlations between quality of life and hope, perceiver health status, self esteem, post traumatic state. Negative correlations were found between quality of life and aged.
