This study was designed to investigate the role of weight control in the formation of underlying pathology in eating disorder or eating related problems. The subjects were 304 college athletes(Male : 187. Female: 121) and they were divided into two groups according to need for weight control(Weght control group: 110, Weght non control group: 194). The authors used self report questionnaire which was composed of epidemiologic data, food habit scale, eating attitude test, scale for locus of control for weight, scale for food preference and eating behavior. And we also used Eysenck Personality Questionnaire of Korean standardized edition for assessment of personality characteristics, Beck depression inventory, and the scale of hypochondriasis. The results were as follows: 1) Body mass index and the amount of cigarrette smoking and alcohol drinking showed significant differences by sex but not by need for weight control. 2) Eating habit of female athletes was the worst in all athletes. The score of eating attitude test of female athletes was higher than that of male athletes but there was no significant difference by need for weight control. Food preference and eating related behavior was also different by sex. 3) There were no significant differences in all subscales of Eysenck Personality Questionnaire, Beck depression inventory, and the scale of hypochondriasis between two groups which were divided by need for weight control. Neuroticism score was higher in female atheletes and psychoticism score was the highest in weight control male atheletes. 4) There was no significant difference in number of population with abnormal EAT score(to-tal score$\geq$26) between two groups which were divided by need for weight control. 5) The score of eating attitude test had positive correlation with the score of psychoticism and the tendency of depression in weight control male athletes but not in non-weight control male athletes. In non-weight control male athletes, the score of eating attitude test had positive correlation with the score of lie scale. so its correlation is different from those of weight control male athletes. But in female athletes, the score of eating attitude test had significant positive correlation with the score of psychoticism in both groups. In conclusion, these results suggest that the differences of eating traits in athletes are depend upon the sex difference, not upon the need for weight control. and that the role of weight control in eating disorder or abnormal eating attitude differs according to sex.

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to study the personality traits and cognitive characteristics of the Sasang constitution by comparing the Personality Test and Neuropsychological Test. Methods: A total of 121 subjects were analyzed with the results of a Two Step Questionnaire for the Sasang Constitution Diagnosis (TS-QSCD). Among them, the Personality Tests (SPQ, EPQ, TCI) and the Neuropsychological Tests (A-VLT, CPM, Stroop-CWIT, WCST) were processed and analyzed for Soyangin, Taeeumin, Soeumin. Results: 1. In the results of the SPQ, the Soyangin showed a significantly higher score than did the Taeeumin and Soeumin in Behavior, Emotionality, Cognition, as well as the Total Score. The SPQ-C score and SPQ-T were significantly higher for Soyangin, Soeumin and Taeeumin, in that order. 2. In the results of the EPQ, the Soyangin showed a significantly higher score than did the Taeeumin and Soeumin in Extraversion - introversion. Soeumin showed a significantly higher score than did the Soyangin and Taeeumin in Neuroticism. Soyangin also showed a significantly higher score than Taeeumin in Venturesomeness. 3. For the results of the TCI, the Soyangin showed a significantly lower score than did Taeeumin and Soeumin in Harm-Avoidance, but a significantly higher score in Persistence and Self-Directedness. Soyangin and Taeeumin showed a significantly higher score than did Soeumin for the total score of Self-Directedness+Cooperativeness. 4. The results of the Computerized Neuropsychological Tests (A-VLT, CPM, Stroop-CWIT, WCST) showed no significant differences between the Sasang constitution. Conclusions: The EPQ, TCI score showed significant differences between the Sasang constitution. But the Computerized Neuropsychological Tests developed to evaluate cognitive abilities did not show differences between the constitutional individuals and showed limitations as a research tool. Further studies are needed to devise a research method for ascertaining the cognitive behavioral characteristics of the Sasang constitution.

Objective : The aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Pediatric Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy Questionnaire Brain Tumor Survivor (version 2.0) Aged 13 years and older (Parent Form) (pedsFACT-BrS parent of adolescent). Methods : The pedsFACT-BrS parent of adolescent was translated and cross-culturally adapted into Korean, following standard Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) methodology. The psychometric properties of the pedsFACT-BrS parent of adolescent were evaluated in 170 brain tumor patient's mothers (mean age=43.38 years). Pretesting was performed in 30 mothers, and the results indicated good symptom coverage and overall comprehensibility. The participants also completed the Child Health Questionnaire Parent Form 50 (CHQ-PF-50), Neuroticism in Eysenck Personality Questionnaire, and Karnofsky score. Results : In validating the pedsFACT-BrS parent of adolescent, we found high internal consistency, with Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ coefficients ranging from 0.76 to 0.94. The assessment of test-retest reliability using intraclass correlation coefficient revealed satisfactory values with ICCs ranging from 0.84 to 0.93. The pedsFACT-BrS for parent of adolescent also demonstrated good convergent and divergent validities when correlated with the Child Health Questionnaire Parent Form 50 (CHQ-PF-50) and the Neuroticism in Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. The pedsFACT-BrS parent of adolescent showed good clinical validity, and effectively differentiated between clinically distinct patient groups according to the type of treatment, tumor location, shunt, and Karnofsky score of parent proxy report. Conclusion : We confirmed that this reliable and valid instrument can be used to properly evaluate the quality of life of Korean adolescent brain tumor patients by their parents' proxy report.

Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the association between neuroticism, pain catastrophizing, and experimentally induced pain threshold and pain tolerance in a healthy adult sample from two regions of the country of Croatia: the island of Korcula and city of Split. Methods: A total of 1,322 participants were enrolled from the Island of Korcula (n = 824) and the city of Split (n = 498). Participants completed a self-reported personality measure Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ) and pain catastrophizing questionnaire Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), followed by a mechanical pain pressure threshold and tolerance test. We have explored the mediating role of catastrophizing in the relationship between neuroticism and pain intensity. Results: The results showed that pain catastrophizing partially mediated the relationship between neuroticism and pain intensity, suggesting the importance of pain catastrophizing in increasing vulnerability to pain. The results also indicated gender-related differences, marked by the higher pain threshold and tolerance in men. Conclusions: This study adds to the understanding of the complex interplay between personality and pain, by providing a better understanding of such mechanisms in healthy adults.

본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 본 연구에서 사용된 섭식특성 질문지는 일차수준 요인인 비만증 소인, 통제할 수 없는 섭식충동, 식욕상실증 소인을 구성하는 FHIBS의 신뢰도 (Cronbach-$\alpha$) 양상이 원래 Mehrabian의 것과 매우 유사하였다. 또한 신뢰성 높은 일차수준 요인을 구성하기 위해 제거된 FHIDs의 신뢰도 부하치는 더욱 낮은 값을 보였다. 따라서 우리나라 대학생들의 섭식장애 소인을 판정하기 위해 Mehrabian 일차 수준 요인과 동일하게 구성한 섭식특성 질문지의 번역판을 적용하는 데 문제가 없다고 판단되었다. 둘째, 체격지수와 섭식특성과의 상관에서는 BMI가 '비만증에 대한 소인'및 '조절되지 않는 섭식충동'과 높은 정적 상관 (p < .001)을, '식욕상실증 소인과'는 부적상관 (p <.05)을 보여서 체중이 무겁거나 체지방이 많을수록 과식이나 비만 가능성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 세째. 영양소 섭취와 섭식특성과의 상관에서, '비만증에 대한 소인'과 '식욕상실에 대한 소인'이 높을수록 일부 무기질과 비타민의 섭취량이 적었던 반면, '조절되지 않는 섭식충동'이 높을 수록 레티놀을 비롯한 비타민 섭취량이 많은 경향을 보였다. 네째, 섭식특성과 우을 및 성격차원 간의 상관에서는, '신경증적 경향성'이 '비만증에 대한 소인' (p <.05), '조절되지 않는 섭식충동' (p < .001) 및 '우울수준' (p < .01)과 모두 정적 상관을 보였다. 마지막으로, 영양소 섭취량과 우울 및 성격차원의 관계에서는, '신경증적 경향성'의 성격 차원은 철분 섭취량과 유의적인 부적 상관 (p<.01)을 보이고 열량, 당질, 인, 칼륨 및 비타민 C 등과도 부적 상관 (p<.05)을 보여서 이러한 영양소의 섭취량이 적을수록 신경증적 경향성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 특히 레티놀의 섭취가 높을수록 우울 수준을 비롯하여 신경증적 및 정신병적 경향이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 본 연구에서 사용된 섭식특성 질문지는 현재는 비만증이나 식욕상실증은 아니지만 그렇게 될 가능성이 있는 섭식장애 소인을 가진 영양학적, 심리학적으로 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 Mehrabian의 일차수준 요인과 동일하게 구성한 섭식특성 질문지의 번역판을 섭식장애 소인을 판정하기 위해 우리나라 대학생들에게 적용하는데 문제가 없다고 판단되었다.

연구배경 및 목적: 결혼은 인생의 주요 사건 중의 하나로, 개인의 행복과 인생의 의미의 근원이며 결혼 생활의 적응은 개인의 대인 관계 및 정신 건강에 중요한 영향을 미친다. 성공적인 결혼 생활을 예측할 수 있는 몇 가지 요인이 있는데, 그 중에서 개인의 성격은 결혼의 안정, 만족, 행복을 달성하고 유지하는데 중요한 요인으로 작용한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 도시 지역의 기혼 여성을 대상으로 성격 차원은 부부간의 적응도와 어떠한 관련이 있는지 알아보았다. 방 법: 기혼 여성 170명을 대상으로 인구통계학적 자료, DAS, EPQ, BDI 및 STAI의 기술 통계치를 구하고 Pearson의 적률 상관을 통해 각 자료간의 상관 관계를 분석하였다. 위계적 중다 회귀 분석을 통해 불안과 우울을 통제한 상태에서 부부 적응도와 성격 차원과의 관련을 보았다. 결 과: 연령과 결혼 기간이 증가할수록 애정 표현과 응집도는 감소하였다. 학력의 증가에 따라 전체 부부 적응도와 만족도가 증가하였고, 가족 소득의 증가에 따라 전체 부부 적응도 및 만족도, 일치도, 응집도가 증가하였다. 부부만 사는 가족은 전체 결혼 적응도, 만족도, 응집도에서 부부와 자녀로 구성된 핵가족, 그리고 기타가족이 포함된 확대 가족과 유의미한 차이를 보였다. 정신병적 경향성이 증가할수록 전체 부부 적응도, 일치도, 만족도, 애정 표현, 응집도가 감소했으며 신경증적 경향성이 증가할수록 전체 부부 적응도, 만족도, 일치도, 애정 표현이 감소하였다. 외향성과 허위성은 전체 부부 적응도 및 하부 요인과 상관 관계를 보이지 않았다. 우울과 불안을 통제한 상태에서는 정신병적 경향성이 전체 부부 적응도, 만족도, 일치도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 결 론: 연령, 결혼 기간, 학력, 소득, 가족형태 등의 인구통계학적 변인들 및 정신병적 경향성, 신경증적 경향성의 성격 차원이 부부 적응도와 상관 관계를 보였으며, 신경증적 경향성은 우울과 불안 등의 정서 상태를 매개로 하여 부부 적응도에 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 이를 통해서 개인의 성격은 부부간의 적응과 밀접하게 관련되어 있으며, 결혼 문제를 다룰 때 치료자는 개인의 성격 측면에 대해 고려할 필요가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 향후 정상 대조군과 정신과 질환군 간, 그리고 부부간에서는 성격 차원에 따른 부부 적응도에 어떠한 차이가 있는가에 대한 후속 연구가 있어야 할 것으로 생각된다.
