  • Objectives : Psychasthenia is a psychological disorder that is characterized by phobias, obsessions, compulsions, or excessive anxiety. Their thoughts can be scattered and require significant effort to organize, often resulting in sentences that do not come out as intended, making little sense to others. Methods : Two Patients with psychasthenia are unable to resist specific actions or thoughts, regardless of their maladaptive nature and have insufficient control over their conscious thinking and memory, sometimes wandering aimlessly and/or forgetting what they were doing. Results : The constant mental effort induces physiological fatigue, which worsens the condition. Nevertheless, psychasthenia has become a forgotten disorder. We observed two cases that are worthy of the original definition of psychasthenia. Conclusions : It can be concluded that patients with psychasthenia complain of sinking because of a reduction in psychological tension or an effort to recover the reduction in tension.

The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) were questioned to 278 premenopausal women and 302 postmenopausal women. Data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance in each variable of menopause, age, educational level, religion and partnership of husband, and two-way analysis of variance in two variables of menopause and one of other variables. The results were summarized as follows. 1. Menopause increased the scores of validity, psychopathic deviate, hypomania and paranoia scale, but conversely decreased the score of masculinity-femininity scale. 2. The older the climacteric women were, the lower scores of masculinity-femininity scale were observed. 3. The older the premenopausal women were, the higher scores of depression, hysteria, psychopathic deviate, psychasthenia and schizophrenia scale were observed, on the contrary, all scores of the postmenopausal women were decreased by the increment of their ages. 4. The higher the educational level of climacteric women were, the higher scores of correction and masculinity-femininity scale were observed, but the scores of hypochondriasis, hysteria, schizophrenia and social introversion scale were decreased by the increment of their educational level. 5. The scores of hypomania scale were higher in women of Buddhism than other religions. 6.

  • 목적 : 본 연구는 안경광학과 학생들의 정신건강에 미치는 요인을 성별에 따라 분석하여 학생 생활지도 및 진로지도에 좀 더 차별화된 도움을 주고자한다. 방법 : 충청지역 안경광학과 학생 132명을 대상으로 한 설문지를 분석하였으며, 성별에 따라 정신건강을 비교 분석하였다. 본 연구는 SCL-90-R의 설문지를 사용하였으며, 모든 통계는 SPSS 18.0을 사용하여 유의수준은 p<0.05로 통계 처리하였다. 결과 : 안경광학과 학생들은 신체화 22.7%, 강박증 28.3%, 적대감 12.8%로 정신건강에 문제가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 우울증과 편집증의 경우 27.7%와 10.2%, 대인 예민증, 정신증, 공포증, 불안증은 각각 14.7%, 10.4%, 5.9%, 17.4%로 높은 수치를 나타내었다. 결론 : 안경광학과의 학생들의 약 28.7%에서 부정적인 정신건강으로 신체화, 강박증, 적대감을 느끼고 있었으며, 모든 변수에서 여학생이 남학생보다 상대적으로 높은 수치를 나타내었다. 이에 차별화된 성별에 따른 학생 상담과 생활 지도가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • 연구목적: 본 연구의 목적은 외상후 스트레스 장애에서 증상의 정도에 따른 인지기능의 차이가 어떠한지에 대하여 연구한 것이다. 방 법: 교통사고 관련 외상후 스트레스 장애로 진단된 90명의 외래, 입원환자를 대상으로 외상후 스트레스 장애 증상의 심각도(MMPI 우울증 척도, 강박 척도, 정신분열증 척도)와 인지기능(K-WAIS)을 측정하였다. 그들을 MMPI 우울증 척도, 강박증 척도, 정신분열증 척도 점수에 따라 상위 30%에 해당하는 집단과 하위 30%에 해당하는 집단으로 구분하여 두 군간의 지능과 소검사 점수 차이에 대하여 각각 검증하였다. 결 과: 우울증 척도의 상위군과 하위군 사이에 유의한 차이는 없었다. 그리고 강박 척도에서 하위군이 상위군보다 기본지식, 어휘문제, 공통성문제, 빠진곳 찾기, 차례맞추기가 유의하게 높았다. 그리고 정신분열증 척도에서 하위군이 상위군보다 전체지능, 언어성지능, 동작성지능, 기본지식, 어휘문제, 이해문제, 산수문제, 빠진곳 찾기, 차례맞추기, 토막짜기, 모양맞추기, 바꿔쓰기가 유의하게 높았다. 결 론: 본 연구 결과, 외상후 스트레스 장애에서 증상의 정도에 따른 인지기능의 차이가 있었다. 따라서 증상의 정도가 심한 집단에서 인지기능 장애가 더 심하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그러므로 외상후 스트레스 장애는 불안장애이기도 하지만 인지기능 또한 증상에 의해 많은 영향을 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 향후 외상후 스트레스 장애를 치료함에 있어서 약물치료 뿐만이 아니라 다양한 인지적 치료 접근이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

  • Objective:This study aims to analyze the relationships between personality factors measured by Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) scales and the indices of safety and health in the shipbuilding industry. Background: Many researches reported that there were significant relationships between some MMPI subscales and traffic and industrial accidents. Method: This study analyzes 230 male workers in shipyard for their MMPI scores gathered during recruitment process and their safety and health indices from the performance record during their working period. ${\chi}^2-test$ and one-way ANOVA are used for finding the statistical significance for personality factors. The conventional grouping rule for MMPI scales and other grouping criteria considering the attitude of positive answer for the MMPI test during recruitment process are used for analysis. Results: The Hypomania (Ma) and Psychopathic Deviate (Pd) scales of the MMPI are the main factors related to the safety and health related indices for most grouping rules. Depression (D), Psychasthenia (Pt), Hypochondriasis (Hs), Schizophrenia (Sc), and Masculinity and Femininity (Mf) scales are also related to the safety and health indices. Conclusion and Application: The results can be used for understanding the psychological factors in human behaviors and safety and can help professional personnel take the necessary steps in improving safety on the job and also in providing the effective teaching of safe work methods.
