본 연구에서는 현재 주의력-결핍 및 과잉운동장애(Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, 이하 ADHD)의 주요한 평가척도 중의 하나로서 이용되고 있는 한국아동인성검사(Korean Personality Inventory for Children, K-PIC)와 아동 ${\cdot}$ 청소년 행동평가척도(Korean Child Behavior Checklist KCBCL)의 임상적 타당도에 대해 살펴보고자 하였다. 피검자들은 ADHD의 하위 유형 중 주의력-결핍 우세형(ADHD-I)으로 진단된 환아 11명과 과잉 행동-충동 우세형 및 복합형(ADHD-H)로 진단된 환아 23명, 우울, 불안 등 정서적 문제로 진단(신경증 집단；N) 받은 정신과 외래 환아 16명, 정상아동 15명 등 총 65명이었다. 먼저 각 집단별로 분산분석을 실시하였고, 각각 행동 평정 척도의 변별력을 측정하기 위하여 판별분석을 실시하였다. 이 집단들의 K-PIC와 K-CBCL 결과들에 대한 전체(omnibus) F-검증 결과, K-PIC의 과잉행동(HPR) 척도와 K-CBCL의 주의집중문제(Attention Problems, 이하 AP) 척도들은 분산분석결과 유의한 차이를 보였다. 하지만 사후검증 결과, ADHD-I 집단과 ADHD-H 집단 그리고 신경증 집단 사이에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않는 반면, 그 세 집단은 모두 정상집단과 .05 유의도 수준 하에서 유의한 차이를 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 K-PIC의 과잉행동(HPR) 척도와 K-CBCL의 주의집중문제(Attention Problems) 척도의 경우, 기본적으로 임상군과 정상군을 구별하는데는 유용하지만 임상군내에서의 세부 진단을 위해 사용하는 데는 한계가 있음을 시사해준다. 또한 본 연구 결과 상대적으로 HPR 척도는 ADHD-H type을 감별하는 데 더 유용한 반면, K-CBCL의 AP 척도는 ADHD-I type을 감별하는 데 더 큰 강점을 갖는 것으로 보이나, HPR척도와 AP 척도 중 어느 하나만을 사용하는 것보다는 병행하여 사용하는 것이 더 바람직한 것으로 보인다. 특히 cut-off score 면에서 두 척도 중 어느 하나에서 T 점수 65점 이상 상승할 때 ADHD로 진단내리는 경우, 가장 효과적으로 정분류율(true positive rate；sensitivity)과 정배제율(true negative rate；specificity)을 조화시킬 수 있는 결정규칙이 되는 것으로 나타났다.

Objectives : Characteristic symptoms, including hyperactivity and easy distractibility, in children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) suggest that their brain status, even at rest, might differ from that of healthy children. This study was conducted in order to determine whether resting state brain activity is compromised in medication-naive children with ADHD. Methods : Twenty medication-naive children with ADHD (mean age $10.3{\pm}2.5$) and 28 age- and gender-matched healthy volunteers (mean age $10.3{\pm}2.0$) underwent measurements for resting state brain activity using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Among resting state related-independent components (RSICs) extracted from fMRI data using independent component analysis, a significant difference in RSICs was observed between groups, using a mixed Gaussian/gamma model. Results : Except for IQ, which was higher in the healthy control group, no demographic difference was observed between the two groups (p<.001). Significantly less activation of one RSIC, which includes the bilateral precuneus/posterior cingulate cortex, occipito-temporal junction, and anterior cingulate cortex, was observed in the ADHD group, compared with the control group (p<.05). Conclusion : An abnormal RSIC, posterior default mode network (DMN), was observed in the medication-naive ADHD group. Results of our study suggest that abnormality of posterior DMN is one of the main pathophysiologies of ADHD.

Prevalence of pediatric obesity has increased worldwide in the last 20 years. Obese children suffer not only physical complications but also mental health problems such as depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and eating disorders, as well as psychosocial impairments, such as school adjustment problems, bullying, and low self-esteem. Recently, there have been some studies on the association of mental health problems and pediatric obesity. In the treatment of pediatric obesity, many previous studies suggest multidisciplinary treatment. However, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has attracted attention because obese children are accompanied by body image distortion, emotion dysregulation, and difficulties in stimulus control. This review is a narrative summary of the recent studies on mental health problems and CBT in pediatric obesity. The relationship between depression/anxiety and pediatric obesity is still inconsistent but recent studies have revealed a bidirectional relation between depression and obesity. Additionally, some studies suggest that obese children may have eating disorder symptoms, like loss of control eating, and require therapeutic intervention for pediatric obesity treatment. Furthermore, impulsivity and inattention of ADHD symptom is thought to increase the risk of obesity. It has also been suggested that CBT can be very effective for mental health problems such as depression, impulsivity, and body image distortion, that may coexist with pediatric obesity, and use of multimedia and application can be useful in CBT.

Objectives: The current study investigated the personality characteristics of parents of children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) using the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), which is commonly used in clinical medicine. Methods: Participants were 117 parents of children with ADHD (96 boys and 21 girls) and 77 parents of comparison children (50 boys and 27 girls), who completed the Korean version of the MMPI. Results: The MMPI scores of the fathers of ADHD children were significantly higher on the Psychopathic Deviate (Pd), Masculinity-Femininity (Mf), Paranoia (Pa), and Psychasthenia (Pt) scales than the comparison group's were. In addition, the mothers of ADHD children had higher MMPI scores on the traits of Hypochondriasis (Hs), Psychopathic Deviate (Pd), and Schizophrenia (Sc) than the comparisong roup had, but were not significantly higher. Conclusion: The fathers of ADHD children might be antisocial, irresolute, passive, paranoid, and anxious. In addition, mothers of ADHD children might have hypochondriacal, antisocial, and/or psychological confusional traits, but these were not be significantly high. These results suggest that the psychopathology of parents of ADHD children might correlate with their children's ADHD.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical utility of the Korean Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fourth Edition (K-WISC-IV) and General Ability Index (GAI) in children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods: The GAI and Full Scale IQ (FSIQ) in K-WISC-IV were compared for a group of 79 children with ADHD and 234 normal children. The mean differences within each group were testified by the t-test and Cohen's d. The Wechsler's descriptive classifications for each GAI and FSIQ score were analyzed in the children with ADHD. Additionally, the critical value for the difference between the means of the FSIQ and GAI was calculated in the normal children. Results: The score on the GAI was higher than that on the FSIQ in the children with ADHD, with a mean difference of 2.19 points. The implications of these findings are discussed regarding the cognitive characteristics of the children with ADHD. According to Wechsler's descriptive classification, the application of the GAI showed a lower (7.59%), equal (61.65%) or higher (60.76%) prevalence of ADHD compared to the application of FSIQ. Conclusion: The implications of these findings are discussed regarding the cognitive characteristics of the children with ADHD. The GAI reflecting the attention and behavioral problems in children with ADHD could be utilized as an alternative global intelligence estimate that considers their potential for development.

Kleine-Levin syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of hypersomnia, hyperphagia, hypersexuality and delusion and hallucination with spontaneous recovery. A 17-year-old female suddenly showed hypersomnia, severe fatigue, and compulsive hyperphagia. She was diagnosed with suspected Kleine-Levin Syndrome. The precipitating factor was an upper respiratory tract infection that the patient had undergone 2 weeks prior. Past psychiatric history included somnambulism and ADHD; her symptoms of ADHD included attention deficit, impulsiveness, hyperactivity, and irritability. This was her third episode. Her hypersomnia was longer in duration but lower in frequency compared with usual KLS. Her low LF/HF ratio in heart rate variability measurement showed high parasympathetic nerve activity. A MMPI report showed some psychological problem. The patient was diagnosed of gastric fever by pattern identification. Her hypersomnia episode improved 6 weeks after onset. This is the first reported case of suspected Kleine-Levin Syndrome in the field of Oriental Medicine in Korea.
