  • Pavlovian fear conditioning has been extensively studied for the understanding of neurobiological basis of memory and emotion. Pavlovian fear conditioning is an associative memory which forms when conditioned stimulus (CS) is paired with unconditioned stimulus (US) once or repeatedly. This behavioral model is also important for the understanding of anxiety disorders such as posttraumatic stress disorder. Here we describe the neural circuitry involved in fear conditioning and the molecular mechanisms underlying fear memory formation. During consolidation some memories fade out but other memories become stable and concrete. Emotion plays an important role in determining which memories will survive. Memory becomes unstable and editable again immediately after retrieval. It opens the possibility for us of modulating the established fear memory. It provides us with very efficient tools to improve the efficacy of cognitive-behavior therapy and other exposure-based therapy treating anxiety disorders.

  • 본 연구는 마음챙김(Mindfulness)의 심리치료적 과정을 기술해 보고 현대인의 정신적 질병인 우울증에 대한 마음챙김의 치료효과를 검증하는데 있다. 마음챙김은 최근 미국을 중심으로 심리학과 정신의학 분야에서 크게 주목을 받고 있는 심리치료 프로그램이다. 마음챙김은 일상생활에서 well-being을 추구하는 정신건강에 효과가 있으며, 정신적 스트레스 감소와 임상치료에서 우울, 불안, 강박, 중독, PTSD, ADHD 등 각종 정신병리의 증상완화에도 치료에 효과가 있다고 밝혀졌다. 본 연구는 신경정신과에서 의뢰받은 3명의 내담자들을 대상으로 마음챙김 심리치료를 실시하고 그 결과를 분석하여 우울증에 대한 치료효과를 알아보았다. 내담자의 특성은 장기간 우울증을 겪고 있으며 약물을 복용하고 있는 50대 여성을 대상으로 하였고, 그 결과 마음챙김은 우울증으로 인한 우울감과 불안감, 반추적 성향, 정서조절 곤란 정도에서 감소되는 효과가 있었으며, 정신건강의 긍정적인 지표인 마음챙김 기술 척도는 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과는 마음챙김이 인지행동치료 뿐만 아니라 약물치료를 대체하는 정신적 치료법으로도 효과가 있다는 시사점이 있다.

  • This study examined the perception of disasters and post-traumatic stress disorder in occupational therapy majors to provide the basic data necessary for future occupational therapy. A questionnaire survey was conducted on 545 students in occupational therapy departments of three year and four year universities. The frequency of the questionnaire was calculated by frequency analysis using the SPSS 19.0 win program. A chi-squared test was conducted to verify the analyzed questionnaire data. The reliability of the questionnaire in this study showed a Cronbach' alpha value of 0.891. According to the survey results, approximately 20% of learners who majored in occupational therapy were unaware of the symptoms, developmental mechanism, and diagnostic criteria of post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD). Knowledge of the underlying causes of psychological symptoms, such as post-traumatic stress disorder as well as physical damage through industrial accidents, was found to be 2.92 on the Likert 5-point scale. To be effective in rehabilitation treatment, the degree of the approach to education from the viewpoint of occupational therapy is important enough to be recognized as 3.90 on the Likert 5-point scale. The Pearson correlation coefficient for the need for education on disasters was higher than the correlation with the awareness of disasters.
