This study investigated the body image, body stress, eating attitude, and dietary quality in middle school girls. Questionnaires were administered to one hundred fifty seven middle school girls in Seoul area. The subjects were categorized into the five groups according to their body mass index (BMI); 1) severely under-weight (BMI < 16.5 $kg/m^2$), 2) under-weight (16.5 $\leq$ BMI < 18.5 $kg/m^2$), 3) normal weight (18.5 $\leq$ BM I < 23.0 $kg/m^2$), 4) overweight (23.0 $\leq$ BMI < 25.0 $kg/m^2$), and 5) obese (BMI $\geq$ 25 $kg/m^2$). 7.0%, 14.6%, 58.9%, 10.2%, and 10.2% of the subjects were classified as severely under-weight, under-weight, normal weight, overweight and obese groups, respectively. Regardless of the BMI, the subjects had disturbed body image, body stress, and poor eating attitude. The actual BMIs of the normal weight, overweight and obese subjects were significantly different from their desired BMI and perceived BMI, representing these subjects dissatisfied their body shape. Almost all subjects tried to lose their body weight even in the severely under-weight and under-weight groups. There were significant correlations of BMI with body image disturbance (p < 0.05), body stress (p < 0.01) and eating attitude (p < 0.05). These results indicated that middle school girls who have higher BMI seemed to have more body image distortion, body stress and risk of eating disorder. However, any significant difference in dietary quality among the five groups was not observed even though their dietary patterns were not balanced. As a conclusion, it is required that middle school girls should correct their distorted body image and body stress. Also, efforts to improve eating attitude, dietary pattern and nutritional status in the middle school girls are needed.

A new approach of analyzing the displacements and stress of the surrounding rock for shallow tunnels excavated under non-axisymmetric displacement boundary conditions on a vertical surface is investigated in this study. In the proposed approach, by using a virtual image technique, the shear stress of the vertical ground surface is revised to be zero, and elastic solutions of the surrounding rock are obtained before stress revision. To revise the vertical normal stress and shear stress of horizontal ground surface generated by the combined action of the actual and image sinks, the harmonic functions and corresponding stress function solutions were adopted. Based on the Boussinesq's solutions and integral method, the horizontal normal stress of the vertical ground surface is revised to be zero. Based on the linear superposition principle, the final solution of the displacements and stress were proposed by superimposing the solutions obtained by the virtual image technique and the stress revision on the horizontal and vertical ground surfaces. Furthermore, the ground settlements and lateral displacements of the horizontal and vertical ground surfaces are derived by the proposed approach. The proposed approach was well verified by comparing with the numerical method. The discussion based on the proposed approach in the manuscript shows that smaller horizontal ground settlements will be induced by lower tunnel buried depths and smaller limb distances. The proposed approach for the displacement and stress of the surrounding rocks can provide some practical information about the surrounding rock stability analysis of shallow tunnels excavated under non-axisymmetric displacement boundary conditions on a vertical surface.

The widespread pursuit of a thin physique may have a detrimental impact on the wellbeing of preadolescents. The influence of body image distortions on the lifestyles, dieting behaviors, and psychological factors was investigated in 631 fifth and sixth grade children in Kyeonggi-do, Korea. Children were classified into three weight groups (underweight, normal, and overweight) and three perception groups (underestimation, normal, and overestimation). Necessary information was obtained by questionnaire, and each subject's weight status was determined by the Rohrer index calculated from the annual measurement records, which were obtained from the school. According to their current weights, 57.4% of children were normal and 32.2% were overweight or obese, 16.6% of the children overestimated their body weight, and 55.2% had an undistorted body image. Overweight children had desirable lifestyles and dietary habits and presented reasonable weight control behaviors. Compared to those without distortion, the overestimated group had greater interest in weight control ($P$ = 0.003) and dissatisfaction with their body weights ($P$ = 0.011), presented unhealthy reasons to lose weight ($P$ = 0.026), and had higher scores for "feeling sad when comparing own body with others" ($P$ = 0.000) and for "easily getting annoyed and tired" ($P$ = 0.037), even though they had similar obesity indices. More subjects from the overestimation group ($P$ = 0.006) chose drama/movies as their favorite TV programs, suggesting a possible role for the media in body image distortion. These findings suggest that body image distortion can lead preadolescents to develop stress about obesity and unhealthy dieting practices, despite similar obesity indices to those without distorted body images. These results emphasize the importance of having an undistorted body image.

This study was conducted to provide information about weight control behavior in adolescent females. To explain the behavior intention of dieting, conceptual framework based on "Social Support, Control and the Stress Process Model" and "Theory of Reasoned Action" was used. The survey was carried out by self-questionnaires with 463 female high school and college students in Daegu. Analysis of data was done using mean, correlation and multiple regression analysis with the SAS computer program. A society preoccupied with thinness gives a burden to women, and this burden may stress dissatisfaction with body image. Social perception of ideal body image except parents' perception, and salient others'perception, and salient others' expectation of subjects' body image except parents' expectation, were much thinner than normal figures in this study. The influencing factors for behavior intention of dieting of the subjects were perceived stress and attitude toward diet behavior, especially beliefs of behavioral outcome. Influencing factors related to perceived stress-that is dissatisfaction of body image-were current figure, social perception of body image, effect of mass communication and others' estimation of subjects' body image with self-comparison with others, in order.th others, in order.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the weight control behavior, body shape satisfaction, and obesity stress depending on the degree of obesity in college students who applied for a weight control program. The average BMI of the participants was $21.4\;kg/m^2$ which was in the normal range, and 76.3% of the participants were of normal body weight. Ideal BMI in this participant was $18.1\;kg/m^2$, which is in the underweight range. In terms of body perception, participants generally overestimated their body weight. The overweight and normal weight groups were less satisfied with their body shape than was the underweight group. The overweight group also expressed fears of showing their bodies to others. Additionally, the overweight and normal groups exhibited higher obesity stress than the underweight group. 97.0% of participants were interested in weight control as a way to improve their appearance. They usually obtained their weight control information from the internet and mass media. More than 80% of participants had weight control experience, having undergone weight control attempts for duration of less than a month. However, after the discontinuation of weight control efforts, these participants regained the weight. As a consequence, they were generally unsatisfied with the outcomes of weight control programs. This study demonstrated that the college women who had applied for the weight control program were unsatisfied with their body shape owing to distorted notions of the ideal body shape, and these women had generally undertaken frequent efforts to control their body weights. These results underline the importance of educating college-aged women on proper body perception and the maintenance of healthy body weight and shape.

목적 : Siemens사의 Flash 3D(Pixon(R) method, 3D OSEM)는 검사 시간을 단축하면서 재구성을 통해 영상의 질을 높일 수 있도록 개발된 소프트웨어 프로그램으로써 핵의학 단층 촬영 시 유용하게 적용되고 있는 영상처리기법이다. 그러나 감산된 영상을 Flash 3D로 재구성하여 시행하는 뇌 혈류 부하 검사 시에 영상 획득시간을 짧게 하여 검사를 시행하면 재구성된 감산 영상의 신호 대 잡음비가(SNR, signal to noise ratio) 기저 영상에 비해 낮아지는 문제점이 있었다. 감산 영상의 SNR을 높이기 위해 LEAP 검출기를 사용하였고, 뇌혈관의 해상력보다는 혈관 확장의 예민도에 더 중점을 두었다. 본 실험은 뇌혈관 부하 단층 촬영 시 LEAP 검출기의 적용 가능성을 확인하고, Flash 3D를 이용한 적정 수준의 재구성 매개 변수를 파악하는 데 목적이 있다. 실험재료 및 방법 : (1) 팬텀 평가: $^{99m}Tc$을 넣은 Hoffman 3D Brain $Phantom^{TM}$을 이용하였다. LEAP와 LEHR 검출기로 첫 번째 영상을(부하 영상에 해당) 획득하고 $^{99m}Tc$의 반감기인 6시간 후 동일한 방법으로 두 번째 영상을(기저 영상에 해당) 획득하였다. 또한, 각각의 기저 영상과 감산 영상의 SNR 및 백질과 회백질의 비를 측정하였다. (2) 환자 영상의 평가: 2008년 5월부터 2009년 1월까지 LEAP 검출기로 촬영하여 정상으로 판독된 15명과 LEHR 검출기로 촬영하여 정상으로 판독된 13명의 환자를 대상으로 영상을 정성분석 하였다. Phantom에서 얻은 재구성 매개 변수를 대입하여 평가하였다. 하루 검사 프로토콜로 시행하였으며 기저에서 925 MBq, 부하에서 925 MBq의 $^{99m}Tc$-ECD를 투여하였다. 결과 : (1) 팬텀 평가: 각 검출기에서 획득한 계수치를 측정한 결과 LEHR 기저에서는 41~46 kcount, 부하에서 79~90 kcount, 감산에서 40~47 kcount가 측정되었다. LEAP의 경우 기저에서 102~113 kcount, 부하에서 188~210 kcount, 감산에서 94~103 kcount가 측정되었다. LEHR 감산 영상의 SNR은 LEHR 기저 영상과 비교하면 37% 감소하여 나타났고, LEAP 감산 영상의 SNR은 LEAP 기저 영상과 비교하면 17% 감소하여 나타났다. 회백질과 백질의 비는 LEHR 기저에서 2.2:1 감산에서 1.9:1로 측정되었고, LEAP 기저에서는 2.4:1 감산에서 2:1로 측정되었다. (2) 환자 영상의 평가: LEHR 검출기로 획득한 계수는 기저에서 대략 40~60 kcount, 부하에서 80~100 kcount 사이였다. 기저 및 부하 영상은 FWHM을 7 mm로 (타 장비의 Cutoff에 해당), 감산 영상은 FWHM을 11 mm로 설정하는 것이 적절하였다. LEAP는 기저에서 대략 80~100 kcount, 부하에서 180~200 kcount로 측정되었다. LEAP 영상은 기저 및 부하에서 FWHM을 5 mm로, 감산에서 7 mm로 설정해야 영상의 흐림을 줄일 수 있었다. 기저 및 부하 영상은 LEHR 영상이 LEAP 영상보다 해상력이 우수했다. 그러나 감산 영상의 경우 팬텀 실험과 같이 LEHR 영상의 SNR이 떨어져 영상이 거칠게 보였다. 감산 영상은 LEAP 영상이 LEHR 영상에 비해 SNR 및 예민도가 높게 평가되었다. LEHR과 LEAP 검출기의 모든 영상에서 subset과 iteration은 8회가 적절하였다. 결론 : LEAP 검출기를 이용해 적정 수준의 필터를 사용함으로써 SNR을 높여 보다 선명한 감산 영상을 획득할 수 있게 되었다. 하루 검사 프로토콜을 적용하여 Flash 3D로 재구성하는 경우, 보다 나은 감산 영상을 얻기 위해 LEAP 검출기의 적용을 고려해 볼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper presents a prediction and simulation method of tensile stress-strain curves of Engineered Cementitious Composites (ECC). For this purpose, the bridging stress and crack opening relations were obtained by the fiber bridging constitutive law which is quantitatively able to consider the fiber distribution characteristics. And then, a multi-linear model is employed for a simplification of the bridging stress and crack opening relation. In addition, to account the variability of material properties, randomly distributed properties drawn from a normal distribution with 95% confidence are assigned to each element which is determined on the basis of crack spacing. To consider the variation of crack spacing, randomly distributed crack spacing is drawn from the probability density function of fiber inclined angle calculated based on sectional image analysis. An equation for calculation of the crack spacing that takes into quantitative consideration the dimensions and fiber distribution was also derived. Subsequently, a series of simulations of ECC tensile stress-strain curves was performed. The simulation results exhibit obvious strain hardening behavior associated with multiple cracking, which correspond well with test results.
