산림치유 프로그램에 대한 요구가 증가되고 있다. 효과적인 산림치유를 위해, 참가자의 특성을 파악하여 보다 표적화 되고 차별화된 산림치유 프로그램을 개발, 운영할 필요가 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 개인의 성격에 기초한 산림치유 프로그램의 개발 및 운영을 위한 기초자료 제공을 목적으로, MBTI(Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) 성격유형 선호지표, 심리기질유형과 산림치유 프로그램의 선호도 사이의 관련성을 각각 분석하였다. 일반 성인 남.여 245명을 대상으로 MBTI 성격검사와 산림치유 프로그램에 관한 선호도 설문조사를 실시하였다. 자료분석은 SPSS 21.0 프로그램을 사용하여 분산분석(ANOVA)을 통해 MBTI 성격유형에 따른 산림치유 프로그램 선호도의 차이를 살펴본 바, 그 차이가 확인되었다. 외향(E)-내향(I)은 호흡법.호흡체조, 자유롭게 숲속 걷기(신발착용), 숲속 웃음치료, 경관보기, 삼림욕.풍욕.일광욕에 대해 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 그리고 감각(S)-직관(N)은 물 흐르는 소리 듣기, 허브차 마시기, 숲속 잠자기에 대해, 사고(T)-감정(F)은 물속에 발과 팔 담그기, 숲속 잠자기에 대해, 판단(J)-인식(P)은 비전세우기, 경관보기에 대해 각각 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 성격의 심리기질유형에 따라서, 허브차 마시기, 자연음식 먹기, 숲속 잠자기, 경관보기, 숲 해설 듣기에 대해 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구 분석 결과가 산림치유 프로그램 개발과 운영을 위한 기초자료로 활용되기를 기대한다.

This study was conducted to investigate the dietary and other factors affecting bone mineral density (BMD) in older Korean women. A total of 340 women aged 65 to 74 were recruited from the Kugoksoondam area (Kurye, Goksung, Soonchang and Damyang counties), known as the longevity-belt region in Jeonla province, Korea. They were categorized into two groups according to bone status by T-score : a nonosteoporotic group and an osteoporotic group. Demographic characteristics were collected, as well as information on physical measurements, blood tests for biochemical indicators, health status health-related life style, dietary behavior, favorite food groups, nutrient intake and mini nutrition assessment (MNA). The results are as follows: The mean age of 185 nonosteoporotic women was 69.6 years and that of 155 osteoporotic women was 70.9 years (p<0.001). The mean T-score of the nonosteoporotic group was $-1.5mg/cm^3$ and that of theosteoporotic group was $-3.2mg/cm^3$ (p<0.001). Height and body weight in the nonosteoporotic group were significantly higher than in the osteoporotic group (p<0.001, respectively). There was no significant difference in BMI, although the BMI in the nonosteoporotic group was slightly higher. Waist and hip circumferences in the nonosteoporotic group were significantly higher than in the osteoporotic group (p<0.01, respectively), and the mid upper arm and calf circumferences were also significantly higher than in the osteoporotic group (p<0.001, p<0.01, respectively). The 5 m walking ability was significantly superior compared to the osteoporotic group. Serum levels did not show any significant differences between the groups and were within normal range. The serum total protein, albumin and Insulin-like growth factor (IGFs) levels of the nonosteoporotic group were significantly higher than those of the osteoporotic group (p<0.05, p<0.05, p<0.001, respectively). IGF was 104.7 ng/mL for the nonosteoporotic group and 88.1 ng/mL for the osteoporotic group. Physical activity and appetite in the nonosteoporotic group were significantly higher (p<0.01, p<0.05, respectively). The favorite food groups of the nonosteoporotic group comprised more meats and fish than those of the osteoporotic group (p<0.05, respectively). Nutrient intake was not significantly different, with the exception of niacin intake (p<0.05), but the nutrient intake of the nonosteoporotic group was slightly higher than that of the osteoporotic group. The niacin intake of the nonosteoporotic group and the osteoporotic group were 11.4 mgNE and 10.0 mgNE, corresponding to 103.6% and 90.9% of the Korean EAR, respectively. The MNA score of the nonosteoporotic group was significantly more favorable than for the osteoporotic group. In conclusion, it is necessary to maintain adequate body weight and muscle mass. Habitual physical activity may have a beneficial effect on BMD for older women. Dietary factors, such as meat and fish, higher intake of niacin rich foods and nutrient status for older women also appear to have favorable effects on bone mineral density.
