Objectives: S-HTP is a projective test of cognitive activity. The purpose of this study was to examine the response characteristics in the S-HTP test as they related to seven emotions and cognitive processes. Methods: 153 students underwent S-HTP testing. 10 students were excluded and a total of 143 students' data was used for the study. 143 students were classified into four groups by SCAT. A survey was conducted on seven emotions and cognitive processes painting the Whole picture, house, tree, and person, and after receiving IRB review exemption, the chi-square test was conducted to check homogeneity of the groups by gender and age. Finally, frequency analysis by constitution for each item was conducted. Results: The reaction characteristics of S-HTP, focusing on the seven emotions and cognitive processes detailed by Korean Medicine, are as follows: 1. The primary sentiment while drawing during S-HTP was 'Joy (hui)' followed by 'Thought (sah)'. 2. The sentiments while painting during the S-HTP test, and the emotions of looking at the picture after the S-HTP test, increased in 'Joy (hui)' and decreased in 'Thought (sah)'. 3. 'Thought (Sah)' was the highest scored process while drawing S-HTP, followed by 'jee (智)'. However, 'ryeo (慮)' was similar to 'jee (智)' in an unclassifiable constitution. Conclusions: The primary characteristics of the S-HTP test response are 'Joy (hui)' and 'Thought (sah)' in emotion, and 'sah (思)' and 'jee (智)' in cognitive processes. Therefore, it is necessary to verify this during the S-HTP test.

Objectives: Though Sasang Constitution denotes a temperamental personality, the differences in temperament affect pathological vulnerability. The purpose of this study is to establish the criteria based on differences in response patterns of S-HTP test according to the Sasang Constitution in the normal group. Methods: The S-HTP test was administered to 153 students who were tested with the Sasang Constitution Analysis Tool (SCAT). Excluding 10 students, only 143 students' data were was used in this study. The 143 students were classified into four groups by SCAT. The degree of psychology was determined by S-HTP test and the rating scale was developed by two specialists. These data were analyzed by ANOVA with IBM SPSS windows 22.0. Results: The S-HTP test showed significant differences in line and shape and the relationship between each picture, window of house, and the size and root of the tree with regard to the Sasang Constitution. Conclusions: Sasang Constitution showed no differences in S-HTP test, which is influenced by the acquired personality rather than innate personality.

Background: The use of heated tobacco products (HTP) causes many adverse health effects. Although the use of HTP by adolescents is prevalent worldwide, research related to it is very limited. There is a considerable lack of research related to the current HTP use rather than ever-HTP use. In particular, research related to predictive factors for current HTP use in adolescents is scarce. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze related characteristics according to the current use of HTP among South Korean adolescents. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study that used data from the Seventeenth Korean Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (KYRBWS). A total of 54,848 students in 2021 were included in this study. Chi-square-test, multiple logistic regression analysis, and chi-square test for trend were used for analyzing related characteristics according to use of HTP. Results: Overall, 715 (1.3%) students responded as having used HTP during the last 30 days among the 54,848 students. It was found that residence type, subjective body type recognition, subjective health recognition, alcohol use, habitual drug experience, close friend current smoking, and conventional cigarette smoking were significantly associated characteristics with the current use of heated tobacco products. Comparing 'very thin recognition' with 'very fat recognition', the adjusted odds ratio (OR) was 1.93 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.29~2.87) for current use of HTP. Additionally, comparing 'very unhealthy recognition' with 'very healthy recognition', the aOR was 3.82 (95% CI: 2.40~6.07) for current use of HTP. Conclusions: Based on these results, residence type, subjective body type recognition, subjective health recognition, alcohol use, habitual drug experience, close friend current smoking, and conventional cigarette smoking were associated with significantly increased odds of current HTP use. Therefore, the results of this study can provide useful evidence about adolescent behaviors in predicting current HTP use.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the biological and sleep-promoting effects of combined ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) using caffeine-induced sleepless fruit flies, ICR mice, and Sprague-Dawley rats. MATERIALS/METHODS: Video-tracking analysis was applied to investigate behavioral changes of Drosophila melanogaster. Pentobarbital-induced sleep test and electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns were used for analysis of sleep latency, duration, and quantity and quality of sleep in vertebrate models. RESULTS: Administration of combined GABA/5-HTP could significantly reverse the caffeine induced total distance of flies (P < 0.001). Also, individually administered and combined GABA/5-HTP significantly increased the total sleeping time in the caffeine-induced sleepless ICR mice (P < 0.001). In the caffeine-induced sleepless SD-rats, combined GABA/5-HTP showed significant differences in sleep quality between individual amino acid administrations (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, we identified inhibitory effects of combined GABA/5-HTP in locomotor activity, sleep quantity and quality in caffeine-induced sleepless models, indicating that combined GABA/5-HTP may be effective in patients with insomnia by providing sufficient sleep.

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of rice flour sponge cakes containing 0, 20, 30, 40, and 50% Helianthus tuberosus powder (HTP). As HTP content of sponge cake increased, the pH of sponge cake batter significantly decreased, whereas specific gravity significantly increased (p<0.05). Meanwhile, volume and symmetry indices of sponge cake were inversely proportional to HTP amount. Further, with higher HTP content in sponge cake, L and b values of crumbs significantly decreased (p<0.05), whereas a value significantly increased (p<0.05). L, a, and b values of crust significantly increased with higher HTP content. For texture characteristics, hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness of sponge cake significantly increased (p<0.05),whereas cohesiveness did not significantly change. In the sensory evaluation test, rice sponge cake prepared with 10% HTP showed the highest sensory scores in terms of color, flavor, taste, softness properties, and overall preference. The levels of total polyphenol compounds and DPPH radical scavenging activities of rice sponge cakes significantly increased with higher HTP contents (p<0.05). The results of this study suggest that rice sponge cake containing 10% HTP is the most appropriate for quality characteristics and sensory evaluation. This study also provides a way to increase the quality, texture characteristics, and organoleptic properties of sponge cake while reducing HTP content to less than 10% in order to satisfy consumer tastes.

The purposes of this study were to investigate demographic profiles between the consumer group under high time pressure(HTP) and the group under low time pressure(LTP) during the shopping, to examine the level of association between the fashion information sources and time pressure variable, to determine the difference in clothing benefits sought between HTP and LTP, and to determine the difference in purchase criteria. We distributed questionnaires to 600 women aged in 20-65. The reliable 562 questionnaires were used for a statistical analysis. Data analyses were conducted with SPSS program on t-test, cluster analysis, factor analysis, and Chi square test. We obtained the following results: There was a significant association between demographic variables such as age, occupation, education, residence area, & family cycle and time pressure variable. Fashion information sources were classified into 4 factors. HTP searched information on fashion products using more various sources than LTP did. There was also a significant difference between HTP and LTP in clothing benefit sought. Four clothing benefit factors such as trendy/social position, economic value, protection/comfort, and makeup of body shape were sought more by HTP than by LTP. In addition, HTP considered significantly more purchase criteria such as color/pattern, comfort, quality, suitability, material, sewing finishing, coordination, price, brand, easy care, and country of origin than LTP.

This study aims to examine the effects of art therapy on challenging behavior of schoolchildren. For this purpose, I selected one class of 4th year student of S primary school, located at Jeongeup city, Jeonlabukdo, and selected 4 study subjects through examination of K-CBCL children. juvenile behavior evaluation scale, characters, school life and K - HTP test. With regard to procedure of this study, I carried out art therapy program at the art class for 60 minutes one time a week for 4 months, a total of 17 sessions from Apr. 3, 2007 to July 24, 2007. I made this program with some modification in reference to Arts Therapy Technique (Counpia Remote Training Center, 2005), Group Art Therapy (Choi Seon Nam. Kim Gap Sook. Jeon Jong Kuk, 2007) and the Effects of Peer Group Art Activity on Sociality Skill of Offensive Children (Park Ju Yeon. Lee Byeon In, 2005). For each child, I compared and analyzed the changes in score of K-CBCL children. juvenile behavior evaluation scale, behavior by K-HTP (dynamic house-wood-human figure test) analysis and by school life(KSD) image analysis before and after treatment. I also carried out qualitative analysis on behavioral feature of each child for each session. This study obtained the following conclusions. First, child A showed positive change in comparison before and after art treatment program of score K-CBCL children. juvenile behavior evaluation, K-HTP image test and school life. Since he was so active and wanted to obtain good evaluation from anyone that he frequently had quarrel with friends, spoke against others well and beaten others much but was changed and did not speak against others or beat. Second, child B showed clear difference in comparison before and after art treatment program of score K-CBCL children. juvenile behavior evaluation, but no significant difference in K-HTP image test and school life. However, I observed substantial changes. While he could not speak frankly to others, felt empty in mind and was offensive in personal relations, he was changed, did not have quarrel with others or speak against others that much and improved his relationship with friends or teachers. Third, child C showed positive change in score of K-CBCL children juvenile behavior evaluation after art therapy program. In comparison of K-HTP image test and school life treatment before and after treatment, he still longed for mothers in mind but found rather stable after treatment. Fourth, child D showed positive chance in score of K-CBCL children. juvenile behavior evaluation scale after art therapy program, but almost no changes in K-HTP image test. But he depicted good relationship and socializing with other friends in school life. While he could not carry his point due to social immaturity and felt depressed, he got more confident. This result of study showed that art therapy had positive effects on correction of schoolchildren.

This study made macaroon with the addition of Helianthus tuberosus L. powder so as to increase the application of Helianthus tuberosus L. powder (HTP) to food products and look into the quality characteristics depending on an addition ratio. Helianthus tuberosus L. powder 0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% were added, respectively, to make macaroon. As Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was added more, the moisture content tended to decrease more significantly (p<0.001). As Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was added more, lightness and yellowness tended to reduce more significantly (p<0.001). As Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was added more, the content of total phenol compounds and DPPH radical scavenging activity were significantly increased (p<0.001). In terms of texture analysis, hardness, gumminess, cohesiveness and chewiness were significantly increased, as the Helianthus tuberosus L. powder was increased (p<0.05). In terms of sensory test, regarding taste, 0.5% HTP group had the highest points. And as color, flavor, and texture were improved, 1.5% HTP showed the most desirable result in terms of overall acceptability. Results, if Helianthus tuberosus L. powder is added for cooking macaroon, it seems to increase anti-oxidation function and develop functional macaroon with excellent sensory factors.
