  • Background: Human body is formed of symmetric bilateral structures that are comprised of eye, upper arm, lower arm and etc. but, we are used only dominant components. The purpose of this study was to analysis length cognition ability in dominant eye. Methods: Total 88 persons (male 18, female 70) were participated in this study. They were tested with ‘hole in the card’ test for identification of dominant eye's side, then the length cognition ability was measured in right & left axillary level by describing 10cm line. Results: The results by independent t-test were as follows. In difference of length cognition ability in right axillary level between right dominant eyed group & left dominant eyed group, right dominant eyed group was superior to left dominant eyed group, but significant difference was not existed statistically(p>.05). In left axillary level, right dominant eyed group was superior to left dominant eyed group, but significant difference was not existed statistically(p>.05). Conclusion: These result can be applied to the learning of palpation & observation skill in physical therapy, although this study was not identify a relation between dominant eye & dominant hand.

  • Objective: Dual-task interference is defined as decrements in performance observed when people attempt to perform two tasks concurrently, such as a verbal task and walking. The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of gait ability according to the dual task interference in chronic stroke survivors. Design: Cross-sectional study. Methods: Ten chronic stroke survivors (9 male, 1 female; mean age, 55.30 years; mini mental state examination, 19.60; onset duration, 56.90 months) recruited from the local community participated in this study. Gait ability (velocity, paretic side step, and stride time and length) under the single- and dual-task conditions at a self-selected comfortable walking speed was measured using the motion analysis system. In the dual task conditions, subjects performed three types of cognitive tasks (controlled oral word association test, auditory clock test, and counting backwards) while walking on the track. Results: For velocity, step and stride length, there was a significant decrease in the dual-task walking condition compared to the single walking condition (p<0.05). In particular, higher reduction of walking ability was observed when applying the counting backward task. Conclusions: Our results revealed that the addition of cognitive tasks while walking may lead to decrements of gait ability in stroke survivors. In particular, the difficulty level was the highest for the calculating task. We believe that these results provide basic information for improvements in gait ability and may be useful in gait training to prevent falls after a stroke incident.

  • 개발도상국에서 선진국으로의 국제결혼의 가장 중요한 동기로는 경제적으로 보다 여유로운 삶의 추구를 들 수 있다. 그러나 이들 결혼이주자들의 결혼 전후의 경제적 상황을 비교분석한 경험적 연구는 전무하다고해도 과언이 아니다. 본 연구는 한국의 베트남 여성 결혼이주자를 사례로 결혼 전후의 경제상황의 변화에 대한 인식을 그들의 사회 경제적 특성과 관련하여 분석하였다. 한국의 베트남 여성 결혼이주자의 결혼동기 역시 경제적인 이유인 경우가 약 80%정도를 차지하였다. 그러나 실제로 이들 가구의 경제적 수준은 상대적으로 매우 낮다. 이를 반영하듯 이들의 절반 정도는 결혼 전후 경제적 상황이 큰 차이가 없는 것으로 인식하고 있으며, 결혼 후 경제적 상황이 나아졌다고 인식하는 비율이 그렇지 않다는 비율보다는 4배 이상 높았다. 이러한 결혼 전후의 경제상황의 변화에 대한 인식과 그들의 사회 경제적 특성과의 관계에서는 본인과 남편의 교육수준, 한국어 능력, 직장 유무, 남편의 소득 수준 그리고 가계관리 여부, 한국에서의 거주기간과는 정(正)의 상관관계가 있었다. 그러나 베트남에서의 직업 유무 및 베트남으로의 송금 여부와는 상관관계가 별로 크지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 베트남 여성 결혼이주자의 대부분은 현재 본인의 가족뿐만 아니라 베트남 가족의 경제적 여건을 제고하기 위한 취업에 대한 의욕이 매우 높았다. 따라서 이들의 취업을 위한 보다 구체적인 정책적 대안이 마련되어야 할 것이다.

  • Background: Compared with normal people, stroke patients have decreased voluntary craniocervical motion, which affects their balance. Objects: This study was conducted in order to examine the effects of active craniocervical movement training using a cognitive game on stroke patient's cervical movement control ability, balance, and functional mobility. Methods: The subject of this study were 29chronic stroke patients who were randomly allocated to either an experimental, cognitive game group (n = 15), or control group (n = 14), to which only neuro-developmental treatment (NDT) was applied. The intervention was conducted 5 times per week, 30 minutes per each time, for a total of 4 weeks. Active angle reproduction test, static stability test, limits of stability test, and Time up and Go (TUG) test, respectively, were carried out in order to evaluate cervical movement control ability, static balance, dynamic balance, and functional mobility. Paired t-test was used in order to compare differences between prior to after the intervention, along with an independent-test in order to compare prior to and after-intervention differences between the two groups. Results: After the craniocervical training with a body-driven cognitive game, the experimental group showed significant differences in flexion, extension, and lateral flexion on the affected side, and rotation on the affected side in the active angle reproduction test. The experimental group indicated significant differences in sway length both with eyes-open and with eyesclosed in the static stability test and in limits of stability test and TUG test. The control group to which NDT was applied had significant differences in flexion in the active angle reproduction test and in limits of stability test and TUG test. Conclusion: The above results mean that craniocervical training using a body-driven cognitive game positively influences stroke patient's cervical movement control ability and as a result their balance and functional mobility.

  • Purpose: Walking in the dual-task condition is a critical skill for hemiplegic patients to live in real-life situations. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of dual-task gait training and general gait training on gait parameters and cognitive function in patients with chronic stroke during dual-task walking. Methods: The study included 23 patients with chronic hemiparetic stroke who were randomly divided into experimental (dual-task gait training) and control (general walking training) groups. The 11 subjects in the experimental group and nine subjects in the control group received dual-task gait training (walking while handling a ball, crossing obstacles, picking up various objects, and problem solving simple cognitive tasks and general over-ground gait training, respectively, for 30 minutes per day 5 days per week for 4 weeks. Spatiotemporal parameters and cognitive tasks in the dual-task gait condition were measured. Statistical analysis of the changes between the pre- and post-intervention measurement variables was performed using ANCOVA. Results: In the gait condition under cognitive tasks, the changes pre- and post-intervention in gait velocity, stride length, double support limb, and step symmetry were significantly greater in the dual-task gait training group; however, the dual-task gait training group showed no significant improvement compared to the general gait training group in terms of the assessment of cognitive tasks. Conclusion: The findings suggest that dual-task gait training may be beneficial for walking ability in dual-task walking condition.

  • Healthcare providers in Korea are using conservative pharmacological treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD) to delay the progress of the disease or to mitigate its behavioral and neurological symptoms. However, there is a growing need for interventions using practical non-pharmacologic treatment, as the effects of pharmacological treatments has faced limitations. This research provided a cognitive rehabilitation program to 3 AD patients and used a multiple baseline design across subjects to examine the effects. Performing reality orientation therapy (ROT) for 1 cycle (4 weeks) resulted in a slight increase in accuracy and responsiveness on an orientation task, mainly with patients with mild cases of AD. Also, in the sub-domain of the Korean-Mini Mental Status Examination performed to examine changes in cognitive ability, there were minimal changes in place orientation. In functional communication, however, there were no significant differences before and after the intervention. In conclusion, we found that ROT was an effective intervention for improving accuracy and responsiveness in the orientation of patients with mild cases of AD. In future studies, the effect of non-pharmacological interventions can be evaluated more reliably by examining the interaction effects of sample size, length of the intervention, outcome measurements, and pharmacological intervention.
