The purpose of this study was to develop a group bibliotherapy program for improvement of elementary school students' self-esteem and to examine its effects. The subjects in this study were 20 children who were selected from 120 sixth graders at H elementary school in Gwangju Metropolitan city. They are randomly allocated at experiment group(n=10) and control group(n=10). Twelve sessions were administrated to experiment group for group bilbiotherapy and each session had run 40 minutes. Data were collected through the self-esteem inventory which was originated from Coopersmith's Self-Esteem Inventory(1967) and Chang(2001) translated and modified and the researcher remodified for this study. The collected data were analysed through ANCOVA. Research results were as followings. First, the experimental group showed a significant increase in the level as compared with the control group. Second, the experimental group showed significant increase in the level of general Self-Esteem, social Self-Esteem, homely Self-Esteem, but showed no significant increase in the level of schoolwork Self-Esteem as compared with the control group. The results showed that the group bibliotherapy has significant effect on the improvement of elementary school students self-esteem.

어린이들이 자라나면서 인지지능발달도 중요하지만 현대를 살아가는 훌륭한 성인으로서 성장하여 사회나 조직 속에서 보다 성공적인 삶을 살아가려면 정서지능의 발달은 매우 중요하다. 어린이의 정서지능발달이 농촌체험을 통해서 이루어진다면 농촌측면에서 1석2조의 효과를 가져올 수 있는 것이다. 도시의 어린이들이 농촌체험을 하면서 정서지능을 키워갈 때, 우리 농촌에서는 농촌과 농업의 중요성을 알리고, 체험소득을 얻을 수 있기 때문이다. 따라서 본 연구의 목표는 농촌체험의 정서지능 향상 효과를 구명하는데 있다. 연구방법은 서울시 교육청에 지원학교 가운데 1개 학교를 선정하였으며, 대상학교의 5학년 2개 반 아동 중에 체험지원 아동 30명을 실험집단으로 선정하고, 같은 학교 같은 학년 1개 반 아동 30명을 비교집단으로 선정하였다. 조사도구는 청소년용 EQ검사 척도를 활용하였으며(문용린, 1999), 전혀 그렇지않다(0점)부터 매우 그렇다(4점)까지 총 40개 문항으로 구성되었다. 자료수집방법은 실험집단과 비실험집단 학생을 대상으로 사전 및 사후 질문지 120부가 활용되었다. 분석방법으로는 평균, 표준편차, 공분산분석, 독립표본t-검증, 대응표본t-검증이 활용되었다. 적용 체험프로그램은 초등학생을 대상으로 총 9회차로 포도이야기, 참새와 방앗간, 버섯따기 체험, 고구마 캐기, 허브도감만들기 등과 같은 농촌체험프로그램을 실시하였다. 연구결과 실험집단과 비실험집단에 대한 사전 정서지능 측정에서는 실험집단과 비교집단의 정서지능이 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 농촌체험프로그램을 실시한 후 사후검사에서는 실험집단(99.76)이 비교집단(97.79)보다 정서지능이 높게 나타났다. 실험집단의 정서지능의 농촌체험프로그램 사전 및 사후 결과 정서지능이 총점이 평균 7.08 정도 향상된 것으로 나타났으며, 정서지능에 사전 및 사후 결과의 평균을 하위 영역별로 살펴보면 '정서인식'이 1.76, '사고촉진'이 3.32, '정서지식'이 2.40정도 향상되었다. 하지만 비교집단의 정서지능은 사전과 사후간의 유의한 차이가 없어서 정서지능의 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 농촌체험프로그램을 지속적으로 9회 실시한 후 사전 및 사후 정서지능 검사에서 체험집단이 비체험집단보다 6점이나 더 높게 나타나 농촌체험을 통하여 정서지능 향상에 효과 있음이 구명되었다. 이 결과를 토대로 농촌체험은 정서 지능향상에 효과를 주고 있다고 할 수 있다. 앞으로 이러한 결과가 우리 농촌관광마을이나 체험농장에 홍보자료로 활용되었으면 한다.

Objectives: This study investigated the psychological characteristics of patients with functional dyspepsia. Methods: The subjects included ninety patients with functional dyspepsia and sixty four psychiatric out-patients. We administered Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory(MMPI) and Illness Behavior Questionnaire(IBQ). Results: There were no significant differences between the patients with functional dyspepsia and the psychiatric out-patients by MMPI. Two groups both showed a higher distribution in hypochondriasis, depression, hysteria subscales than in any other subscales. The patients with functional dyspepsia showed lower scores in disease conviction and affective disturbance subscales in IBQ than the psychiatric out-patients. The distribution of scores of the other IBQ subscales were similar between the patients with functional dyspepsia and the psychiatric out-patients. The patients with functional dyspepsia were divided into three groups for the Multivariate cluster analysis: normal, similar to psychiatric out-patient, and severe neurotic. The severe neurotic group showed higher scores in hypochondriasis, depression, hysteria, psychathenia, and schizophrenia subscales in MMPI and showed significant different scores in affective disturbance, disease conviction, psychological and somatic concerns, affective disturbance, denial, and irritability subscales in IBQ. Conclusion: If patients with functional dyspepsia show severe neurotic behavior, such as those in, they would need appropriate psychiatric intervention.

This study employed inter-simple-sequence repeat (ISSR) to assess genetic variation among 189 individuals representing 10 populations (nine in Korea and one in Japan) of Millettia japonica, which has recently been lifted from the endangered species of Korea. The calculated Shannon's information index value (I = 0.2689) of the species was appreciable and was higher than other endangered leguminous woody taxa. Gochang (I = 0.2968), Namhae (I = 0.2951), and Mt. Toham (I = 0.2823) populations showed relatively high genetic diversity, whereas the Kyushu (in Japan) population (I = 0.2487) exhibited the lowest. The results of an analysis of molecular variance indicated that 86.49% of the diversity was attributed to within populations, and 13.51% to differences among populations, suggesting that M. japonica populations do not have significant geographic differentiation and that the gene flow between populations exists to some extent (Nm = 1.8446). Continuous habitat monitoring should be conducted to conserve genetic diversity of M. japonica, particularly for those populations with relatively high genetic diversity. Selection of many individuals from the populations in Gochang, Namhae, and Mt. Toham is thought to be an appropriate strategy for ex situ conservation of M. japonica in Korea.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of forest environment and therapeutic program to the patients with major depressive disorder in antidepressant medication. The first group participated the four sessions of therapeutic program in the forest environment ("forest therapy"), the second group did in the program in a hospital environment, the third group did merely walking in the forest ("forest bath"), and the last group was controls. All the participants was diagnosed with major depressive disorder and had been taking antidepressant medication longer than 3 months. Depressive symptoms were measured by the Hamilton Rating Scales for Depression(HRSD), Montgomery-Asberg Depressin Rating Scales(MADRS), Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), and general health perception was measured by Short Form Health Survey Questionnaire(SF-36). Heart rate variability(HRV) were also examined to observe the physiological parameters before and after the program. In the results, HRSD score of forest program group was significantly lower than controls after the program. MADRS score of forest therapy group and hospital program group was also significantly lower than controls after 4 sessions of the program. The remission rate defined as below 7 points in HRSD was higher in the forest therapy group, hospital program group, forest bath group, and controls in order. These results reveals that the therapeutic program performed in forest environment may improve unremitted depressive symptoms of patients with major depressive disorder. Although not significant, the forest therapy program showed better outcome than hosptial program and forest bath.

The purpose of study were the effect of stress levels and duty type of guarder on 8-OHdG(hydroxydeoxyguanosin), Immunoglobin, T-cell, NK-cell and antioxidant enzyme. The subject of this study is people who have the guard's career over 2 years. A group of object sample consists of sixty guards carrying the guardbusiness. The group division and distribution of the number of persons a group divided into the guard group of international factor(N=23), private guard group(N=23),and the others(N=14) as a group following the guardbusiness. The group following a stress level divided into 3groups as their score of stress measure; low stress group(N=14), middle stress group(N=26),and high stress group(N=20). In the office type, the experiment sampling the blood, analysing result of following the office type and stress had a conclusion after measuring stress as the followings. The stress level in the office type of guard showed highly in the guard group of international factor(p<.05). Finally we knew that the guard have different stress levels in the office type, even the immune function and the activation of superoxide dismutase affected them in the stress level. Stress showing in the guard career can do them an injury so it is desirable for the guard themselves to participate in the activities settling their stresses and in the development of exercise programs.

Genetic diversity and population genetic structure were estimated in nine natural populations of Exochorda serratifolia in South Korea using ISSR marker system. Average of polymorphic loci per primer was 5.8 (S.D.=2.32) and percentage of polymorphic loci per population was 78.7% with total 35 loci from 6 ISSR primers. In AMOVA, 27.8% of total genetic variation came from genetic difference among populations and 72.2% was resulted from difference among individual trees within populations. Genetic differentiations by Bayesian inference were 0.249 of ${\theta}^{11}$ and 0.227 of $G_{ST}$. Inbreeding coefficient for total populations was 0.412. There was significant correlation between genetic distance and geographic distance among populations. On the results of Bayesian cluster analysis, nine populations were assigned into three groups. The first group included 5 populations, and the second and the third had two populations per group, respectively. These three regions could explain 10.0% of total genetic variation from hierarchical AMOVA, and the levels of among-population and among-individual were explained 19.7% and 70.3%, respectively. The geographic distribution of populations following the three Bayesian clusters could be explained with mountain range as Baekdudaegan which is the main chain of mountains in Korea. The mountains as the physical barrier might hamper gene flow in the pearlbush. So when protected areas are designated for conservation of this species, we should consider those three regions into considerations and would better to choose at least one population per region.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the identified groups depend on the relationship of smartphone overdependence and adolescents' perception of smartphone overdependence itself. The study also explored gender positions in classified groups and the relationship between irrational perception of smartphone and positive emotion while smartphone usage. The participants to the study were 2,033 adolescents, aged between 10 and 19 from a smartphone overdependence survey of the National Information Society Agency. As a result of the qui-square analysis and MANOVA, four groups were classified depend on perception of smartphone overdependence and related smartphone overdependence behaviors. Second, gender did not show any differences in groups. Third, adolescents with lower perception in smartphone overdependence showed lower perception of smartphone usage compared to other adolescents in three groups. Fourth, adolescents with constructive perception in smartphone overdependence reported positive emotions. The results of this study suggest that it is necessary to understand adolescents' smartphone overdependence and look together with the irrational perception of smartphone.

Drawing upon research in affect and social identity theory, this study examines when and how an individual's trait positive affect (TPA) exerts a significant effect on the person's organizational citizenship behavior directed toward individuals (OCBI). A moderated mediation model was tested by using the data of 293 employees nested in 66 work groups. Results demonstrate that the indirect effect of TPA on OCBI mediated by group identification (GI) is significantly positive only when perceived group positive affect (PGPA) is low, highlighting the substituting role of PGPA in the relationship between TPA and GI. The significant conditional indirect effects at the low level of PGPA suggest that TPA functions as significant, affective resources for enhancing GI and consequently increasing OCBI of the focal member when PGPA is low. By contrast, TPA's role in enhancing GI becomes redundant when PGPA is high. The current analysis reveals potential complementary functions of TPA and PGPA in explaining subsequent identity cognition and individual behavior.

The purpose of this study was explored the effect of Flipped PBL on Communication and Problem Solving skill of University students. For study, students in the college of education at A University and S University located in Gyeonggi-do were set up 60 students. They majored in Christian education and early childhood education, and the level of education was similar in the same region and department. In the experiment, the comparison group and the experimental group were separated, and data were collected through pre-test before class and post-test after class, followed by analysis covariance(ANCOVA). Between the comparative group performing flipped learning and the experimental group performing flipped PBL, the problem solving ability and communication ability using the flipped PBL averaged 4.28 and the communication ability averaged 4.06. As a result, it was higher than each of the comparison groups, confirming that it had a significant effect. This will be able to present a flipped PBL class design as an alternative method to overcome the limitations of the existing flip learning in a changing classroom situation and to improve the communication and problem solving ability of the learner.
