Purpose: This study aimed to investigate sleep, fatigue, and the level of health promoting behaviors in Korean army soldiers. The factors influencing on health promoting behaviors of soldiers were also identified. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive survey design was used. Data was collected from 269 soldiers in four military units of Korea in July 2015. Verran and Snyder-Halpern Sleep Scale, Fatigue Severity Scale, and Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II were used. Results: The health promoting behaviors were significantly different by perceived health status (p<.001) and presence of fatigue (p<.001). There were significant correlations between quality of sleep, fatigue, and health promoting behaviors of the subjects. In a multiple linear regression analysis, the level of health promoting behaviors were lower in the subjects with high level of fatigue (p<.001) and with fair perceived health status (p=.003). Conclusion: In order to increase health promoting behaviors of soldiers, it takes into account of soldiers' fatigue and perceived health status. Environmental arrangement for soldiers for the break time is needed urgently to decrease their fatigue as well as to improve their sleep quality.

This study was done to find out the difference in vowel length between the English language produced by American soldiers and KATUSA soldiers. Though English pronunciation by Koreans shows different features in many ways, I focused on English vowel length of KATUSA soldiers. I wanted to know if KATUSA soldiers, when compared with American soldiers, showed a foreign accent when they produced English diphthongs. The reason I wanted to deal with English diphthongs is that most Koreans have difficulty in pronouncing them since they do not understand the concept of diphthongs. Therefore I selected five English diphthongs, /aI/, cI/, /au/, /eI/, /ou,/as/ the experimental object, and I tried to find out the foreign accent of them. In this study I also tried to find out the vowel lengths in relation to their utterance positions. I investigated the difference of the English diphthong length between American and KATUSA soldiers using information gathered from experimental results.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to perform researches and analysis on the use of dental institutions, oral health behavior, the actual conditions of oral health care, and the oral health knowledge according to the rank of soldiers and officers and then to provide the basic data for the contents development of an oral health education to the military. Methods : The subjects in this study were 380 soldiers serving in Gyeonggi, Gangwon and Chungchong provinces. Results : In terms of the use of dental institutions, the soldiers visit the dental clinics most(56.5%), and the officers visit the military dental clinics most(52.7%)(p<0.05). In the oral health behavior, the most of the soldiers(46.7%) and the officers(58.1%) answer that they thought to be in good oral health. Regarding the actual conditions of oral health care, it is investigated that the most of the soldiers brush their teeth twice a day(46.7%) and the officers three times a day(58.1%). With the oral health knowledge, the officers get a point of $2.89{\pm}1.36$, which is higher than the soldiers'($2.47{\pm}1.27$), and the person who have an experience to take an oral health education, getting a point of $2.83{\pm}1.22$, have higher level of the knowledge than the unexperienced with $2.48{\pm}1.31$(p<0.5). Conclusions : It is thought to be necessary to provide the military camps with an oral health education and to develop the contents of an oral health education customized to them.

군 내 복무 부적응 병사들로 인한 병영사고는 비전투력 손실에 따른 전투력 약화, 대군 신뢰도 저하 등 많은 문제를 유발한다. 군은 복무 부적응 병사들을 사전에 식별하고 사고를 예방하기 위한 심리검사체계로 신인성검사를 개발, 적용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 사고 우려자를 식별하기 위해 부적응 병사의 행동 패턴과 증상을 온톨로지로 구현하기 위한 온톨로지 설계 프로세스를 제안한다. 온톨로지 설계 프로세스에 따라 설계한 온톨로지의 성능 평가 결과, 적합성 및 효과성이 검증되었다. 온톨로지 설계를 통해 부적응 병사를 식별하기 위한 군 내 객관적인 기준을 제시하고 사고 우려자에 관한 정보를 공유함으로써 사고 예방에 효과적인 역할을 할 것으로 기대된다.

This study investigates soldiers' and civilians' interest in and behaviors toward cosmetics and skin beauty. Responses to a self-administered questionnaire were collected from 150 soldiers and 156 civilians residing in Chung-chung Province, Korea. The mean age of the respondents was $21.9{\pm}1.8$. More than 90% used skin toner and lotion products, and more than 50% used sunblocks and foam cleansers. Soldiers were more likely to use essence (p<.001) and after-shave (p<.01) products than civilians. In addition, soldiers were more likely to use carrier cosmetics than their counterparts (p<.001~p<.05). Soldiers were more likely to be concerned about their skin (p<.01) and unsatisfactory environments for skin care (p<.001), more likely to engage in skin care behaviors (p<.01), and less likely to have skin knowledge than civilians (p<.001). There was a negative relationship between skin knowledge and skin care behaviors (p<.01). The level of interest in appearance was correlated with that in skin (p<.001). The number of skin related concerns was positively correlated with unsatisfactory environments for skin care (p<.001). Concerns over appearance (p<.001), skin (p<.001), and unsatisfactory environments for skin care (p<.05) were positively correlated with skin care behaviors. The results suggest the necessity of providing a diverse and differentiated range of cosmetics to meet the needs of soldiers and men, particularly the former, according to the differences in their environments.

Objectives : The study examined the correlation the between smoking and the actual smoking condition, knowledge, attitude and practice on the dental health of korean soldiers. Methods: The data was collected from a questionnaire given to 301 soldiers at two separate units in Kangwon-DO. Results : Soldiers dependance on nicotine according to the smoking frequence showed positive correlation(p<0.001). The respondents who had bad breath and bleeding gum had smoked for a relative correlation with how long they had smoked. Among the content of the dental health care program that respondents wished to undergo, dental whitening was the most attractive topic(37.9%) and decayed teeth was the most important part in dental health care(25.2%). The correlation coefficient between the dependancy on nicotine the less effort they made to improve their dental health(p<.05). Conclusion : The study suggest that antismoking campaigns should be include in military dental health care programs. Furthermore, the development of dental health care programs considering the needs of each military unit is basic for practice on dental health care between Korean soldiers.

이번 연구는 경기도 파주시 육군부대의 병사들을 대상으로 군 입대 전후의 간식섭취횟수의 변화를 알아보고 구강건강관리실태와 관련성을 비교 분석할 목적으로 318명을 대상으로 자기기입식 설문지를 작성하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 병사들은 입대 전보다 입대 후 간식섭취횟수의 변화가 많은 것으로 나타났고, 간식섭취횟수의 변화와 흡연 여부와의 관계에서 흡연자와 비흡연자 모두 입대 후 간식섭취횟수가 늘었다. 구강건강관리실태에서 입대 후 간식섭취횟수가 많은 자가 입대 전 간식섭취횟수가 많은 자에 비해 구강건강 상태가 건강하지 않은 것으로 조사되었고, 충치경험은 두군 모두 많았다. 연구대상자들은 치과 정기검진에 대한 실천성은 낮은 것으로 조사되었지만 치아건강에 대한 관심은 높은 것으로 나타났다. 당 성분이 함유된 음식물에 대한 자제력과 영양섭취에 대한 실천성은 나이가 많을수록 실천성이 높은 것으로 나타났고 식후 칫솔질에 대한 실천성은 이등병이 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났으나 불소가 배합된 치약사용과 정기적 스케일링 및 정기적 구강검진, 치실 사용의 실천성은 이등병이 가장 높게 나타났다. 이상의 연구결과를 볼 때, 병사들은 입대 전에 비하여 입대 후 간식섭취횟수가 늘어났으며 구강건강을 위한 행위에 대한 실천성은 낮은 것으로 조사되었다. 그리고 이번 연구에서 병사들의 구강보건교육의 중요한 시기는 이등병이라는 사실을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서 군 특성에 맞는 구강보건교육에 대한 내용과 시기가 고려된 프로그램이 개발, 운영되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate whether the health status of Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF) soldiers changed after one year of military service. Methods: We selected 483 ROKAF soldiers from the 11 749 recruits who participated in the 2011 physical examination. The selected soldiers underwent another physical examination in 2012 for advancement to senior airman. Data from 2011 and 2012 were merged. To collect data on lifestyle, a questionnaire was sent to all included subjects via the military intranet e-mail service. Results: The percentage of recruits with an abnormal alanine transaminase level (normal range <40 IU/L) decreased from recruitment (13.7%) to the following year (2.7%). Moreover, the percentage of obese soldiers (body mass index ${\geq}25kg/m^2$) decreased from recruitment (20.5%) to the following year (10.4%). There was a significant change in mean duration of exercise carried out each day before ($0.8{\pm}1.3$ hours) and after ($1.0{\pm}0.7$ hours) joining the ROKAF service. Conclusions: These ROKAF soldiers were generally in good health before and after joining the armed service. After one year of military service, the health status of most soldiers improved, especially with respect to body mass index and alanine transaminase level.
