Objective : The purpose of study is to investigate the correlation between sensory processing pattern and depression and anxiety of university students. Methods : A designed questionnaire for this study has been distributed to university students for about a month (10th to 29th of August, 2016). The questionnaire is consisted of 5 items for personal characteristics, 60 items for adult/adolescent sensory profile, 21 items from the Beck depression scale-2, and 21 items from the Beck anxiety scale. The data has been collected from 174 university students and analyzed by SPSS version 22.0 for descriptive statistics, cross-tabulation analysis, and Pearson correlation. Results : For depression, there is significant positive correlation with low registration, sensory sensitivity, and sensory avoiding among the sensory processing patterns. For anxiety, all sensory processing patterns are significantly correlated with it. Conclusion : Based on the result of this study, it is recommended for academic staffs or health care professionals to consider the impact of sensory processing patterns on psychological function when they develop an educational program for university students or plan a treatment for young clients.

본 연구는 가상현실을 이용하여 교통사고 후 경험하게 되는 불안감 및 공포감과 같은 심리적인 후유 장애에 대한 치료 프로그램을 개발하기 위한 예비 연구로 수행되었다. 가상현실을 통한 교통사고 후유장애 프로그램의 핵심내용이 되는 운전 주행 시나리오의 효과를 검증하고 이완훈련 등의 불안감소훈련의 효과를 피험자를 통해 검증해보았다. 총 8명 피험자(정상인 7명, 교통사고 환자1명)를 대상으로 세 가지 주행상황 시나리오를 제시하고 이후 이완훈련을 실시하였다. 그 결과 이완훈련 후 유의미한 불안감소 효과가 나타났다. 하지만 각각의 주행상황에 따라서 불안이 증가되는 경향성은 나타났으나 통계적으로 유의미한 수준에 이르지는 못하였다. 이를 종합하여 볼 때, 주로 정상인을 대상으로 한 연구임에도 불안유발경향성이 나타난 점들은 고무적이나 교통사고자를 대상으로 한 경험적인 증명이 필요하며, 가상현실을 이용한 이완훈련은 효과적인 것으로 판명되었다.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of middle-aged women's social support and self-efficacy on their aging anxiety, with the ultimate goal of providing basic information for devising educational and interventive programs to help reduce aging anxiety. Participants of this study were 210 middle-aged women living in B Metropolitan City. Data were collected from May 10 to 28, 2018, and statistically processed using t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient and stepwise multiple regression analysis. Participants showed significant differences in aging anxiety depending on age, education, monthly income, marital life satisfaction, leisure time activities, and number of friends. In addition, aging anxiety had significant negative correlations with social support and self-efficacy, and the main factors affecting middle-aged women's aging anxiety were found to be self-efficacy, marital satisfaction and social support. Of these, self-efficacy had the greatest effect, explaining 42.7% of the participants' aging anxiety. To help middle-aged women reduce their aging anxiety, it is necessary to provide them with programs that improve social activity participation, raise self-efficacy and promote relationships with family and communities. It is also recommended that these women be provided with educational and interventive programs that help them adjust to aging and develop a positive awareness of it.

Introduction : This study compared the clinical results with biceps rerouting fer the isolated posterolateral instability (PLI) and for the PLI combined with PCL injuries. Methods : 21 cases of isolated PLI (group I) and 25 cases of PLI combined with PCL rupture were included in the study. The PLI was reconstructed by modified biceps femoris rerouting technique with PCL reconstructions performed prior to the PLI correction in cases of combined injury The clinical results were reviewed and analyzed. Results : Pre-operatively positive reverse pivot shift test turned negative in 43 cases post-operatively. Increased preoperative external rotation thigh foot angle (ERTFA) showed significant differences between the two groups and all fell within normal limits post-operatively At a mean follow-up of 40.3 months, the average Lysholm knee score and. The Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Ligament Score for group I and group II revealed above 90 points without statistically significant difference between the groups. 3 cases of tenodesis failure developed and re-operation was performed. Discussion and Conclusion : The advantages of modified Clancy technique include reduced surgical damages to the iliotibial band and fixation of the biceps tendon at the isometric position. The modified biceps rerouting technique is recommended for the reconstruction of both isolated and combined PLI except in patients with severe damages at the attachment of biceps tendon.

In children, dental anxiety of dental treatment has been recognized as a source of problems in patient man agement for many years. Dental anxiety can be causes of negative cooperation, cancel and avoid of dental treatment. Therefore, dentist and dental team should recognize of child's dental anxiety as early as possible and manage appropriately. In previous studies, it is reported that parental dental anxiety affect dental anxiety and cooperation of their child. And it is parental decision which results in a child's visit to the dentist, rather than a child's decision in most cases. Therefore, it is important to identify the relationship of dental anxiety between child and parent. We estimated child's dental anxiety before dental treatment using Venham Picture Scale that is useful even a very young child and parental dental anxiety using Corah's dental anxiety scale. Then, two values above were compared. Child's cooperation, temperament, sex, age, parental education were estimated and compared with dental anxiety, too. The results were as follows: 1. There are positive relationship of dental anxiety between child and parent with the correlation analysis(P<0.02). 2. There are negative relationship of child's dental anxiety and child's cooperation with the correlation and regression analysis(P<0.001). 3. Low anxiety group has lower mean value of four temperament item with the Student's t-test. But, there is no statistical differences(P>0.1). 4. Girl and younger group have higher mean value of dental anxiety than boy and older group with the Student's t-test(P<0.001). 5. Low educated parents have higher mean value of dental anxiety than high educated parents with the Student's t-test(P>0.1).

The purpose of this study is a descriptive research study to identify middle-aged women's positive thinking, perceived health status, aging anxiety, and meaning of life, identify relationships between variables, and analyze predictive factors affecting the meaning of life. This study was approved by IRB (1040117-202208-HR-024-01), from September 10, 2022 to February 28, 2023, data were collected from 130 middle-aged women. The data was analyzed using SPSS WIN 26.0 version. Positive thinking and perceived health status(r=.43, p<.001), positive thinking and meaning of life(r=.54, p<.001), perceived health state and meaning of life(r=.31, p<.001) showed a statistically significant positive correlation. Positive thinking and aging anxiety(r=-.20, p=.021) and perceived health state and aging anxiety(r=-.46, p<.001) showed a statistically significant negative correlation. Aging anxiety and meaning of life(r=-.10, p=.281) were not statistically significant. Factors influencing the meaning of life among middle-aged women were found to be positive thinking (𝛽=.52, p<.001), menopausal status (𝛽=-.22, p=.003), with meaning of life (F=32.49, p<.001) explaining 32.8%. As the positive thinking of middle-aged women has been identified as a predictor of the meaning of life, it is considered necessary to develop an intervention program to promote positive thinking of middle-aged women.
