Purpose: The present study was intended to assess stress, depression and fatigue of nurses working for university hospitals and to reveal its association with the type A behavior pattern. Method: The self-administered questionnaires were given to 810 nurses employed in 4 participating hospitals located in Daejeon City. The questionnaire items included sociodemographic, job-related, and the type A behavior patterns as independent variables and the PWI, SDS and MFS as dependent variables. Result: The proportion of the type A behavior pattern was 24.3% of subjects, in the degree of stress, high risk stress group was 87.0%, in the degree of depression, normal group was 60.9%, in the degree of fatigue, high risk fatigue group was 48.6%. The degree of stress, depression, and fatigue were significantly higher in the type A behavior pattern group then the type B behavior pattern group. The type A behavior pattern was significant positive correlation with stress, depression, and fatigue. The degree of stress(OR=1.2, 95%CI=1.167-1.262), depression(OR=1.1, 95%CI=1.11-1.17) and fatigue (OR=1.1, 95%CI=1.04-1.06) were significantly higher for the type A then the type B behavior pattern group. Conclusion: The degree of stress, depression, and fatigue were significantly higher in the type A then the type B behavior pattern group.

일부 종합병원에 근무하는 간호사들의 A형 행동유형과 피로자각증상과의 관련성을 검토하고자 일부 종합병원에서 근무하는 간호사 306명을 대상으로 2011년 5월 1일부터 6월 30일까지의 기간 동안에 구조화된 무기명 자기기입식 설문지(self-administered questionnaire)를 이용한 설문조사를 하였다. 연구결과, 조사대상자의 A형 행동유형의 분포는 A형 행동유형군이 50.7%, B형 행동유형군이 49.3%이었으며, 피로자각증상의 분포는 정상군이 76.8%, 고위험피로군이 23.2%이었다. A형 행동유형에 따른 피로자각증상의 분포를 보면, 피로자각증상이 정상인군은 B형 행동유형군이 높은 반면, 고위험피로군은 A형 행동유형군이 유의하게 높았으며, A형 행동유형은 피로자각증상과 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였다. 또한 B형 행동유형군보다 A형 행동유형군에서 고위험피로군에 속할 위험비가 유의하게 상승하였다. 위와 같은 결과를 볼 때 A형 행동유형군은 B형 행동유형군보다 피로자각증상이 유의하게 높은 것을 알 수 있었다. 향후 다양한 연구대상에 대한 A형 행동유형과 피로자각증상과의 관련성에 대한 지속적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Stress and fatigue are general physical aspects of our daily lives. It has been shown that physical therapists have different levels of job stress and fatigue according to the type A/B behavior patterns. This study collected data from 212 physical therapists between October 28 and November 23, 2016 using an anonymous, self-administered questionnaire. The study results showed the proportion of physical therapists with the Type A behavior patterns(TABP) was 18% greater than that of physical therapists with the Type B behavior patterns(TBBP). In this study, physical therapists with TABP were compared with physical therapists with TBBP. The results indicated that physical therapists with TABP were more inclined to experience higher levels of overall job stress and fatigue from the following stress factors: physical environment, job requirement, and job autonomy. Therefore, the stronger the tendency toward TABP, the stronger the feeling of job stress and fatigue from physical environment, job requirement, and job autonomy. Those with a tendency toward TBBP showed positive correlations between job requirement and the total job stress score; thus, the stronger the tendency toward TBBP, the stronger the feeling of overall job stress and fatigue from job requirement. This study suggests that it is necessary to manage the job stress and fatigue of physical therapists with both TABP and TBBP and to manage the job stress and fatigue of physical therapists with the type A behavioral pattern.

Clinical and epedemiologic studies of coronary heart disease(CHD)have from time to time over the last three decades found associations between prevalence of CHD and behavioral attributes and cigarette smoking. The main purpose of this study is reduced to major risk factor of coronary heart disease through prohibition of smoking and control of behavior pattern. The subjects consisted of 120 smokers and 90 non-smokers who were married men older than 30 years working in officers. The officers were surveyed by means of questionnaire September 26 through October 6, 1989. The Instruments used for this study was a self-administered measurement tool composed of 59 items was made through modifications of Jenkuns Activity Survery(JAS). The Data were analysed by SAS(Statistical Analsis System) program personal computer. The statistical technique used for this study were Frequency, x$^2$-test, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson Correlation Coefficient. The 15 items were chosen with items above 0.3 of the factor loading in the factor analysis. In the first factor analysis 19 factors were extracted and accounted for 86% of the total variance. However when the number of factors were limited to 3 in order to derive Jenkins classification, three factors were derived. There names are Job-Involvement, Speed & Impatience, Hard-Driving. Each of them includes 21 items, 21 and 9, respectively. The results of this study were as follow : 1. The score of the smoker group and non-smoker group in Job-Involvement(t＝5.7147, p＜0.0001), Speed & Impatience(t＝4.6756, p＜.0001), Hard-Driving(t＝8.0822, p＜.0001) and total type A behavior pattern showed statistically significant differences(t＝8.1224, p＜.0001). 2. The score of type A behavior pattern by number of cigarettes smoked daily were not statistically significant differences. 3. The score of type A behavior pattern by duration of smoking were not significant differences. It was concluded that the relationship between smokers and non - smokers of type A behavior pattern was statistically significant difference but number of cigarettes smoked daily and duration of smoking were not significant differences. Therefore this study is needed to adequate nursing intervention of type A behavior pattern in order to elevated to educational effect for prohibition of cigarette smoking.

The author reviewed cognitive-behavioral approach to A type behavior pattern and hypertension which are known to be risk factors for coronary heart diseases. Those cognitive distortions frequently found in persons with A type behavior include all-nothing thinking, selective attention, personalization, and attribution of causality. Cognitive-behavioral techniques were also described, which can be applied to management of each characteristic of A type behavior pattern such as time urgency, perfectionism, achievement striving, low self-esteem, excessive work involvement, hostility, and depression. Cognitive-behavioral intervention for hypertension might help the patients to recognize and monitor anger-engendering conflicts, identify characteristic styles of responding, and experiment with alternative ways of managing conflict and anger. Since different features predominate in different individuals, it is necessary to develop treatment plan on the basis of individual characteristics and problems.

Objectives: The main purpose of this study was to examine factors associated with depression of middle school students in relation to self-esteem, type A behavior pattern, and locus of control. Methods: A survey was administered to a convenience sample of 309 middle school students. The data analysis procedure included frequency distribution, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression using depression as the dependent variable. Results: The prevalence of depression was 27.2%. Stepwise multiple regression revealed that the factors such as self-esteem(${\beta}$=0.422, p<0.001), type A behavior pattern(${\beta}$=0.166, p<0.001), and locus of control(${\beta}$=-0.165, p<0.001) turned out to be significant affecting factors. Forty nine percent of variance in depression was explained by these factors(40% of variance by self-esteem). Conclusions: The findings suggest that personal internalizing variables should be considered when developing mental health education program to prevent the occurrence of depression for middle school students.

The hydrogen or oxygen gas producted by electrolysis become many bubbles in the electrolyte, but exact data on the behavior of these bubbles in the separator of an electrolysis stack didn't become known. In this study, the flow visualization experiment on the behavior of bubbles in the flow pattern of the array type separator is performed by using of a visible alkaline electrolysis stack and a stereoscopic microscope. As the results, a fine size bubbles adhered to the surface of the flow pattern grow to large sized bubbles until each bubble's buoyance is lager than the sum of external force and weight. And then the large bubbles flow into the upper area of the separator. Bubbles adhered to the surface of the vertical flow pattern grow quickly than them adhered to the surface of the horizontal flow pattern. Also, he electrolysis efficiency is declined because many multi-size bubbles occupied the wide volume in the flow pattern.

The aims of this study are to classify the life styles of urban housewives, to see their relationship between life style and demorgaphic variables, and also to see the relationship between life style and dietary patterns. This study has been performed by a questionsire about life style, demographic variables and dietary pattern. The selected samples were 475 housewives. The data were analyzed by factor analysis, cluster analysis, Duncan test, X-test and F-test. Life style is classified into 4 types: temporary enjoying type, passive irrational type, realistic conservative type, actual progressive type. The housewives who are in temporary enjoying type usually do randomly and don't think seriously something. And they have tendency to enjoy themselves. Therefore they don't have any plan for dietary behavior. The passive irrational type's housewives have no consistancy in their life and they do everything temporarily. The housewives who are in this type have relatively low incom, low level of education and they are high in age. The people who are in realistic conservative type act reasonably and elastically everything. They use convenient food very much, because they are willing to save time to make them. The housewives who are included in actual progressive type are well organized and planned in dietary behavior than others, when they dine out, they eat with family together in general, they usually use only a kind of western sauces and convenient food. They are relatively young, highly educated, and they are high income group. In conclusion realistic conservative type and actual progressive type are both relatively desirable type in dietary behavior, but in temporary enjoying type and passive irrational type, there, have to do some guide and education about managing family resources and dietary behavior.
