The purpose of this study was to examine whether any differences can be found in body comparison, body satisfaction, and appearance management behaviors according to the MBTI's typology among male and female adolescents in Gwangju and South Jeolla province, South Korea. It was conducted by a self-report survey of 534 male and female high school students in Gwangju and South Jeolla province. The collected survey data were analyzed by Means, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, Factor analysis, and t-test using the SPSS/PC WIN 19.0 statistical program. The results were as follows: Introversion Type(I) teens tend to think a thinner body is closer to the ideal when compared to Extroversion type(E) students. They spend less time comparing their bodies with their peers. However, they usually have lower levels of body satisfaction and are more likely to be concerned about acne. Intuition Type(N) students tend to have a body figure that is a little plumper than Sensing Type(S) teens. They are inclined to try and lose weight and are concerned about acne. Sensing Type(S) students are more likely to compare their bodies with their peers than Intuition Type(N) teens. However, they are generally less satisfied with their bodies. Feeling Type(F) teens are more concerned with harmony and personal hygiene the Thinking Type(T) students. Judging Type (J) students generally want to be thinner than their current body type when compared with Perceiving Type(P) teens. When Judging Type(J) teens decide they need to be on a diet, they do their best to lose weight even if it means exercising and forgoing their favorite foods. These results indicate that it would be more effective to offer guidance to teens while taking into consideration their differences in terms of appearance management behaviors based on the MBTI Topology of Adolescents.

Purpose Among various psychosocial factors, negative social comparison, attention blocking to stimuli, and cognitive interference via information overload are considered most critical in hindering the effective performance improvement of computer-based idea generation. Given that the effect of negative social comparison along with a plausible solution based on the notion of performance feedback and goal setting has been successfully addressed, this study focused on the remaining issues of "attention blocking to stimuli and cognitive interference via information overload" and attempted to find a way to alleviate the effect of such process losses on performance. Design/methodology/approach A 2 × 4 between-subjects design was used, crossing cognitive ability (high and low) and personality (extroversion and introversion). Five subjects per each treatment were randomly selected to make the sample size equal. The group simulator was used to measure individual-level performance. The dependent variables were the quantity of and quality score of ideas. The manner by which these performance measures were operationalized was consistent with prior studies. An additional analysis using the number of diverse ideas was also conducted. Findings Three arguments were made in this study: (1) high cognitive individuals would perform better than low cognitive individuals, (2) extraverted individuals would perform better than introverted individuals, and (3) cognitive ability and personality would interact such that individuals in Q1 would have the highest performance. Cognitive ability had an effect on quality not quantity. Personality had an effect on both quantity and quality. An interaction between cognitive ability and personality was not found due to small sample size despite the use of the group simulator.

The major concept of Sasang typology is that the disease susceptibility and drug response as well as physiological characteristics are presumed to be different depending on their Sasang types. Although characterizing fundamental basis of their traits are crucial in this research field, only pathological susceptibility and physical appearances were thoroughly studied. We evaluated their physiological characteristics by tapping psychological, physical and genetic traits of each Sasang types. After determining the Sasang type of one hundred three college students based on the Questionnaire for the Sasang Constitution Classification, the psychological, physical and genetic traits of each type were analyzed with the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis and genetic polymorphism test, respectively. Each of the Sasang types showed significantly different profiles (Generalized estimation equation, coef=11.88, z=2.13, p=0.033), and could be distinctively classified based on their MBTI scores (discriminant analysis Wilks Lambda=0.611, df=8, chi-square=36.7, p<0.001). Subjects with the So-Eum type (Introversion and Judging) and the So-Yang type (Extroversion and Perceiving) showed contrasting psychological features, however they had similar anthropometric characteristics. Subjects with the Tae-Eum type showed bigger Body Mass Index ($R^2$=0.22, df=4, 74, F=5.07, p=0.001) and body shape compared to others. Although there were no significant differences in G-protein beta-3 subunit polymorphism, angiotensin-converting enzyme polymorphism and Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase polymprhisms among groups with Sasang types, it was shown that the dopamine system could be one for genetic marker for Sasang typology. These results demonstrated distinctive and essential traits of Sasang typology using reproducible psychometric, anthropometric and genetic evaluations. We also found that the Sasang typology was a bio-psychological typology which could show trait-specific guideline for individualized medicine.

본 연구는 남녀 대학생들의 성격유형 판별을 위해 많이 사용되고 있는 MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) 검사를 통한 성격 지표와 영양섭취실태와 식습관 사이의 관련성을 살펴보기 위해서 경기도 Y 대학교에 재학하고 있는 남녀대학생 283명을 대상으로 수행되었다. 조사대상자의 성격 유형은 남녀 모두에서 외향성(Extroversion, 55.8%)이 내향성 (Introversion, 44.2%)보다 조금 많았고, 감각형 (Sensing, 78.1%)이 직관형 (iNtuition, 21.9%)보다 많았으며, 사고형 (Thinking, 67.8%)이 감정형 (Feeling, 32.2%)보다 많고, 판단형 (Judging, 50.2%)과 인식형 (Perceiving,49.8%)은 비슷한 비율로 나타났다. 조사대상자들의 식습관 조사 결과 남학생이 100점 기준으로 46.1점, 여학생이 45.1점으로 유의한 차이가 없었고, 영양소 섭취 실태 조사 결과 남학생이 2,019㎉로 한국인 에너지 권장량의 80.8%, 여학생은 1,675㎉로 권장량의 83.7%를 섭취하고 있었다. 미량 영양소의 경우에는 남학생은 칼슘과 비타민 B$_2$, 여학생은 칼슘, 철, 비타민 C, 비타민 A를 권장량의 90% 미만으로 섭취하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 식습관과 여러 가지 영양소 섭취량은 양의 상관관계를 보여서 식습관 점수가 좋을수록 영양소 섭취량이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 성격 선호 경향에 따른 식습관 점수에서는 판단형의 사람들이 인식형보다 식습관 점수가 유의하게 높게 나타났고, 다른 성격유형의 경우에는 유의 차는 없지만, 외향성, 감각형, 사고형에서 그에 대조되는 성격 선호지표보다 식습관 점수가 높은 경향이었다. 성격 선호 경향에 따른 영양소 섭취실태에서는 남녀 모두에서 외향성이 내향성보다 영양섭취실태가 좋았고, 남학생의 경우에는 감정형이 사고형보다 영양 섭취실태가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 영양 밀도로 살펴보았을 때에는 사고형과 판단형이 그에 대조되는 감정형과 인식형보다 영양 밀도가 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과를 종합해 볼 때, 대학생의 성격 유형에 따라 판단형의 사람들이 인식형의 사람들보다 식습관이 좋고, 외향성의 사람들이 내향성의 사람들보다 영양섭취실태가 양호한 것으로 사료된다. 한 편, 감각형-직관형은 식습관이나 영양섭취실태와 뚜렷한 관련성을 보여주지 않았고, 사고형-감정형은 감정형의 경우 남학생에서 영양섭취실태가 좋았지만, 영양밀도나 식습관에서는 사고형이 더 좋은 경향을 보여주어서 일관된 경향을 찾기가 어려웠다. 앞으로 대학생을 대상으로 한 영양 상담시에 이들의 성격 유형을 참조하면 영양상담 대상자를 보다 잘 이해할 수 있으므로, 이에 적합한 영양 지도 방법을 제시하는 데 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.
