  • Objectives: Adolescent depression is a complex disorder influenced by a variety of personal and familial factors. In this study, we compared the familial, cognitive, and behavioral characteristics of adolescents with and without diagnosed depression. Methods: Forty adolescents with depressive disorder were recruited from two psychiatric clinics, along with 46 healthy adolescents from a middle school and a high school. We then compared the participants' cognitive and behavioral characteristics and the child-rearing attitudes of their parents. Results: Compared to the healthy adolescents, the adolescents with depression exhibited lower self-esteem, higher emotional reappraisal, greater disruptive behavior, and lower attention. Furthermore, compared to the mothers of the healthy adolescents, the mothers of those with depression reported less affective, less autonomic, and more rejecting parenting attitudes towards their children. Conclusion: We found that attentional problems, negative parenting attitudes, negative self-cognition, and expressive suppression are all associated with adolescent depression. Parenting education and interventions appear to be needed to correct the negative cognitions of adolescents with depression.

  • Purpose: This study aims to examine spatial characteristics of emergency department Chronologically through case studies; and to consider the social implication of these spatial changes. Methods: In this study, a total of eight emergency departments, one for each period, were selected in order to analyze the spatial characteristics. The spatial maps of Space Syntax were employed for analyzing case studies. Results: The spatial configuration of emergency department has been changed from five or more emergency department specialties to four or less specialties such as psychiatric, pediatrics, emergency, and trauma. In the case of care initiation area, the concentrated arrangement mode was switched from the distributed arrangement mode. The spatial maps indicate that it can be seen that the tree structure changes to an annular structure emphasizing the connection between the spaces in the emergency department. This shows that the space efficiency, safe, visual control and flexibility in the planning of the emergency department are important factors affecting the spatial structure of the emergency department. Implications: In the future, it is expected that Korean emergency department will be more focused on efficiency, safe, visual control, and flexibility in the planning as in the case studies of the United States.

  • This study sought to determine wether the reliability of the KIP-C is affected by mothers' scores on of MMPI. Particiapants in this study were 100 mothers whose children visited the a children's psychiatric hospital. They were sorted into two groups; diagnosis consistent group and diagnosis inconsistent groups. the diagnosis inconsistent group showed significantly higher scores on L(p<.001) and K(p<.001) scales, while the diagnosis consistent group had higher scores on F, Ma and Si scales. When comparing the KPI-C of the groups, the diagnosis consistent groups showed significantly higher scores in ANX, SOM and HPR scales(p<.05). A correlation analysis of the validity scales of MMPI and the scales of KPI-C also showed significant correlation. It was also shown that the characteristics of the mothers' personality have important effects on their perception of their children's problems. In particular, the stronger the mothers defensive characteristics, the lower the reliability of their perception of their children's problems. Reciprocally, reliability was higher when the mothers acknowledged their problems.

  • Purpose: This study was to identify the factors influencing turnover intention of nurses in small and medium-sized hospitals. Method: The participants in this descriptive survey on causal relations were 192 nurses who were working at small and medium-sized hospitals in Daegu city. The data were collected by self-reporting questionnaires and analysed by the SPSS Win 14.0 program using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients and stepwise multiple regression. Result: The mean for job characteristics scores were 2.90, the job satisfaction scores were 3.00, the organizational commitment scores were 3.00, job stress scores were 2.42, the turnover intentions scores were 3.08. Turnover intention according to general features were shown as following; age, marital status, clinical career, work schedule type, frequency of night duty. The relationship between turnover intention and job stress had positive correlation. But the relationship between turnover and other factors that job satisfaction, organizational commitment had negative correlation. The causal factors of turnover intention were organizational commitment, job satisfaction, job stress, and job characteristics, frequency of night duty. $R^=.39$. The organizational commitment were the highest significant predictors of turnover intention. Conclusions: The findings of study suggest that broad intention program should be provided to prevent problems of turnover.

  • 본 연구는 정신질환자의 범죄와 치료에 대한 국내외의 주요 연구 문헌들에 대한 개관을 통해 정신질환의 특성에 따른 효과적인 범죄 예방과 치료 방법을 탐색 및 규명하고자 했다. 본 연구 결과 첫째, 정신질환과 범죄와의 관계에 대해 아직 명확한 결론이 내려지지 않고 있으며, 그 관계와 함께 정신질환자의 환경적 스트레스와 촉발 자극 등도 같이 연구해야 할 필요성이 강조되었다. 둘째, 정신질환의 정의에 여러 가지 개념이 혼재해 있으므로, 조현병이나 망상장애, 반복성 기분장애와 같은 중증 정신장애, 반사회적 성격장애, 지적장애, 분노·충동조절장애, 약물남용 등의 특성에 따른 범죄 예방과 치료에 대해 연구할 필요성을 기술했다. 특히 조현병 등의 중증 정신장애의 경우 약물치료와 사례관리만 잘 된다면, 범죄발생과 재범율이 낮아져 지역사회에서 정상인들과 함께 잘 생활할 수 있음이 많이 보고되어 왔다. 그러나 반사회적 성격장애, 지적장애, 분노·충동조절장애와 약물남용의 경우에는 지역사회에서의 적응과 생활이전에, 심리치료는 물론 강도 높은 의료적, 생물학적 개입과 격리 등이 우선적으로 이루어져야 한다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구결과 정신질환자의 범죄를 효과적으로 예방하고 치료하기 위해서는 정신질환의 특성에 따른 세분화된 연구와 관리가 필요하다고 할 수 있다. 또한 국가적, 사회적으로는 정신질환자에 대한 인식개선, 인권증진과 효율적인 지역사회 돌봄도 함께 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 연구의 한계점과 향후 연구과제가 논의되었다.

  • 신체화를 이해하는데 신체화를 형성하게 된 행동이면의 정신적인 갈등배경을 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 그러나 신체화의 생물학적 과정을 파악하고 증상의 유지요인과 악화요소를 알아보아 변화되어 가는 형성과정을 이해하는 점이 더욱 중요하다. 그리고 문화-사회적 특성에 따라 신체증상호소의 방법이나 내용이 다르다는 점을 염두에 두어야 한다. 신체화를 이해하는 데에는 심리적, 생물학적, 사회, 인종, 역사적인 요소가 모두 함께 영향을 미치므로 통합적인 관점에서 파악해 나가지 않으면 안된다.

  • Anxiety and anxiety disorders are one of the most common and most serious psychiatric problems. Anti-anxiety drugs are one of the most effective treatment method for these problems. Benzodiazepines have various side-effects and the risk of overuse and abuse. Therefore, physicians should prescribe benzodiazepines carefully. However, they should not be discouraged from prescribing benzodiazepines when they have a knowledge of the pharmacological characteristics of these drugs and there is a clear indication for their use. Generally speaking, problems of benzodiazepine use such as dependence withdrawal symptoms, and cognitive impairment are more likely to occur with high dose, long-term use(more than 4 months), in geriatric patients and patients with a history of alcohol or other sustance abuse. But long-term or high-dose use can be jusified for patients with panic disorder of agoraphobia, and medically-ill patients with persistent anxiety that cannot be otherwise treated. In summary, there cannot be a general prescribing formulation for benzodiazepine use. Physician should always make their decision based on the individual patient's risk/benefit factors.

  • Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), a complex genetic disorder, arises from suppressed expression of paternally inherited imprinted genes on chromosome 15q11-q13. Characteristics include short stature, intellectual disability, behavioral problems, hypogonadism, obesity, and reduced bone and muscle. The life expectancy of persons with PWS has increased in recent years. Cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, dermatological, and orthopedic problems are common physical complaints in older people with PWS. Behavioral problems are major concerns in adults with PWS into old age. And aging is also associated with significant social and economic changes. Age-related physical morbidity, physical appearance, behavioral and psychiatric problems, functional decline and economic problems can be combined in older PWS. The care for older people with PWS requires a life span approach that recognizes the presence, progression, and consequences of specific morbidity.
