목적 : 본 연구는 일부지역 버스운전기사의 일반적 특성과 수면의 질 그리고 작업 능력 간의 상관성을 파악하고, 작업능력에 미치는 영향을 확인하고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 버스운전기사 120명을 대상으로 작업 능력의 측정을 위해 작업 능력 지수(Work Ability Index : WAI)를 사용하였고, 수면의 질은 수면의 질 평가(Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index : PSQI)를 통해 평가하였다. 작업능력과 수면의 질과의 상관관계를 확인하기 위하여 피어슨 상관분석(Pearson's correlation coefficient)를 이용하였고, 수면의 질이 작업능력에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 단계적 다중 회귀분석(Stepwise regression analysis)을 통해 분석하였다. 결과 : 작업능력에 영향을 미치는 변인들의 상관관계를 분석 한 결과 수면의 질(p<.001)과 근로시간(p<.001) 에서 부적인 상관관계가 나타났다. 최종적으로 수면의 질(p<.001)과 근로시간(p<.01)이 버스운전기사들의 작업능력에 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 변인으로 분석되었고, 수정된 결정계수 값($R^2$)이 0.482로 48.2%의 설명력을 보였다. 결론 : 버스운전기사들의 수면의 질과 근로시간이 작업능력에 영향을 미치는 주요 변인으로 파악되었다. 그러므로 버스운전기사의 작업능력을 향상시키기 위한 방안으로 수면의 질과 근로시간을 고려하여야 하겠다.

본 연구는 대학생들의 수면의 질에 영향을 미치는 흡연행태를 파악하여 대학생 및 20대 청년층을 대상으로 한 국가 흡연예방 및 금연 정책의 기초자료로 사용되고자 한다. 2017년 5월 29일에서 2017년 6월 2일까지 5일간 대학생 291명을 대상으로 흡연행태와 PSQI(Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) 설문지를 통해 수면의 질을 측정하였다. 다중 로지스틱 회귀분석을 Step-wise로 시행한 결과 학년이 증가할수록 OR=2.542-2.820배 수면의 질이 악화되었고, 비흡연자와 금연자에 비해 1갑 미만 흡연할 경우 OR=3.126배, 1갑 이상 흡연을 할 경우 OR=12.388배로 수면의 질이 악화되었다. 또한 일반담배 흡연자 중 수면의 질이 좋지 않은 대학생은 72.4%이나 전자담배 또는 가향담배 흡연자는 수면의 질이 좋지 않은 대학생이 82.6%로 일반담배보다 전자담배 또는 가향담배가 수면의 질을 더 악화시켰다. 수면의 질을 개선하기 위해서는 금연이 필수적이나 금연이 쉽지는 않으므로 국가차원에서 법적인 규제와 정책을 운영할 필요가 있고, 단계적 집중 금연관리를 해줄 수 있는 시스템 또는 서비스가 필요하다.

Objective: To report the effect of Gamiguibi-tang (加味歸脾湯) as a treatment for insomnia. Methods: An insomnia patient who scored 27 points for her insomnia severity index was enrolled in this study. She received oriental treatment with herbal medication (Gamiguibi-tang), acupuncture, and moxibustion for 1 month. Results: After treatment, sleep duration and sleep quality were improved. After the patient had taken Gamiguibi-tang, her score for the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) decreased from 21 to 9, and associated symptoms were also improved without taking sleeping pills. Conclusions: Gamiguibi-tang is effective for the treatment of insomnia. More clinical data and studies are required in patients suffering from insomnia.

Objectives : To determine the relationship between Type A Behavior Pattern and lifestyle and psychological characteristics of Korean medical students. Methods : The Type A Behavior Pattern in 73 Korean medical students was measured. Questionnaires were conducted on lifestyle and mental characteristics. Results : In the PSQI, ISI, S-Scale, BEPSI-K, PWI-SF, CES-D, BDI, STAI-X-1, STAI-X-2, K-RTA, PWI-SF and PSS surveys, The score of Type A Behavior Pattern was significantly higher than that of Type B Behavior Pattern. Otherwise, in SES, WHOQOL-BREF(Physical, Psychological) and SWLS surveys, The score of Type A Behavior Pattern was significantly lower than that of Type B Behavior Pattern. Conclusions : Lifestyle and psychological characteristics of Korean medical students are correlated with Type A Behavior Pattern. Therefore, Type A Behavior Pattern could be used an indicator reflecting various properties of Korean medical students.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess sleep quality and to identify predictors of poor sleep quality in nursing students. Methods: The participants surveyed were 302 individuals at G College located in Kangwon-do. The participants completed the questionnaire including demographic characteristics, health behavior, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) for sleep quality. The BMI was calculated using height and weight. For the statistical analysis, $X^2$ test, Spearman correlation, and logistic regression were performed using the SAS window (version 9.2) program. Results: From the 302 individuals, 219 (72.5%) had poor sleep quality. The results showed significant correlations between physical activity and sleep quality, as well as between sleep duration and sleep quality. The BMI and sleep quality did not show any significant relationship. The factors affecting sleep quality were sleep latency (OR, 4.167; 95% CI, 1.406-12.344), sleep duration (OR, 6.717; 95% CI, 2.386-18.912), and sedentary hours (OR, 2.971; 95% CI, 1.095-8.064). Conclusion: The study demonstrates that poor sleep quality is common in nursing students, and intervention study is needed to improve sleep quality in nursing students. Additional studies are needed to determine the relationship between BMI and sleep quality.

Purpose: This study was conducted to compare and estimate sleep patterns and health status of the shift and non-shift factory workers. Methods: The subjects of this study were 290 male workers in 13 companies, which manufacture automobile parts in Daegu, Korea. Survey data were collected from March 5th, 2007 to April 5th, 2007. PSQI was scored to check the quality of sleep, ESS for excessive daytime sleep disorder, ISI for insomnia, and SF-36 for health status. The data were analyzed by $X^2$ and t-test using SPSS 12.0 for windows. Results: There was a difference in quality of sleep patterns between shift and non-shift workers (p=.033). A difference in the pattern of excessive daytime sleep (P=.005) and in the degree of insomnia (p=.030) were observed between the two groups. However, there were no significant difference in health status between the two groups. Conclusion: Based on these results, shift workers are in need of careful and continuous monitoring regarding sleep disorders and we need to develop health promotion programs including sleep hygiene for shift workers.

Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of brain education-based exercise and KPEM manual therapy integrated program on the sleep and quality of life of cancer patients. Design: Seventy subjects who were diagnosed with cancer and were undergoing treatment volunteered to participate in this study. All subjects used a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design for either the experimental group or the control group. In the final analysis, there were 25 subjects in the experimental group and 18 subjects in the control group. Methods: For 12 weeks, the experimental group performed brain education-based exercise (20 minutes) and KPEM manual therapy (50 minutes), and the control group performed basic physical therapy and autonomous exercise. For evaluation, the Korean version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI-K) and the quality of life index were measured after intervention using the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC-3.0Ver). Effect between groups, time effect over time, and group^*time interaction were analyzed through a pre-test before and after the 12-week intervention period, and repeated measure ANOVA after 12 weeks of the integrated program intervention. All statistical significance levels were set at α=.05. Results: The PSQI in the time effect (p=.001) and the group^*time interaction (p<.001) were statistically significant. In terms of EORTC, QL2 and PF2 were significant in time effect (p=.024; p=.021) and group^*time interaction (p=.007; p=.021), whereas in RF2, significance was only found in group^*time interaction (p=.028). In symptom indicators, time effect was the only significant factor in FA, SL, AP, and CO, respectively (p=.002; p=.028; p=.041; p =.005) and in DY, there were significant differences in the time effect (p=.016) and group^*time interaction (p=.002). Conclusion: The brain education-based exercise and KPEM manual therapy integrated program effectively improves the sleep and quality of life of cancer patients. It is considered that this exercise and therapy can be actively used as a psychological, emotional, and physically complementary physical therapy intervention to improve the quality of life of cancer patients.
