  • 본 논문에서는 개인은 물론 조직에 치명적인 해악을 초래하고 엄청난 경쟁력 상실을 가져오는 도시철도기관사의 스트레스를 알아보고 기관사의 직무 스트레스에 대처하는 방안들을 모색하였다. 도시철도기관사의 직무스트레스로 인하여 발생되는 여러 스트레스에 미치는 악영향의 요인을 최소한 줄이기 위해서는 첫째, 전문성 제고를 위한 교육훈련 확대 및 사고발생시 기관사에 대한 보호조치로 시설개선이 필요하다. 둘째, 정신적 보상이나 조직시스템 등이 직무스트레스를 유발하므로 경영자의 리더십 교육과 같은 전형적인 조직차원의 접근이 근본적인 문제를 해결할 수 있을 것이다. 셋째, 개인적 차원에서의 규칙적인 운동, 금주 등의 바른 생활습관으로 직무스트레스를 낮춘다. 넷째, 과도한 성과 지향과 불공정한 평가를 피하고 기관사의 심리상태를 이해함으로써 근무환경을 개선하고, 근무시간을 조정하는 등의 조직적 차원에서의 복합적인 건강증진 및 관리프로그램 등 제도적 장치를 마련하는 것이 필요하다.

  • Purpose: Health behaviors for metabolic syndrome (MetS) prevention should be emphasized from early adulthood. There is little information on psychosocial factors associated with health behaviors for MetS prevention. The aim of this study was to determine whether there would be a mediating effect of perceived stress on the association between social support and health behaviors for MetS prevention among university students. Methods: This cross-sectional and correlation study was conducted with 502 university students in South Korea. Social support, perceived stress, and lifestyle evaluation for metabolic syndrome scales were used. Online questionnaire survey was conducted between November and December 2019. The mediating effect of social support on health behaviors for MetS prevention was analyzed using PROCESS macro program with bootstrapping method to test our hypotheses. Results: Social support directly influenced perceived stress (β=-.35, p<.001) and health behaviors for MetS prevention (β=.14, p=.002). Health behaviors for MetS prevention was indirectly influenced by perceived stress (β=-.25, p<.001). The size of indirect effect of social support on health behaviors for MetS prevention was 0.06. Conclusions: The association of social support and health behaviors for MetS prevention was partially mediated by perceived stress among university students. Therefore, a university-based nursing intervention should comprise social support strategies with stress management to promote health behaviors for MetS prevention.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 보육교직원의 돌봄노동에 대한 Axel Honneth의 인정이론 관점, 헌법, 영유아보육법, 국가인권위원회법의 고찰을 통해 보육교직원의 사회적 인정 당위성을 규명하는 것이다. 연구결과 첫째, 보육교직원의 열악한 근무환경을 확인하였다. 보육교직원의 근무환경 개선을 위한 보육정책의 지속적인 개입에도 불구하고 여전히 저임금, 휴게시간 보장 등의 열악한 근무환경을 확인하였다. 둘째, 보육교직원의 인권침해를 확인하였다. 보육기관의 아동학대 예방을 위해 설치한 CCTV설치는 보육교직원의 인권훼손 뿐만 아니라 24시간 감시받는 보육교직원의 심리적 압박감을 초래하는 요인으로 확인되었다. CCTV 의무 설치는 보육서비스 질을 저하시키는 메카니즘으로 효과적인 개입의 필요성을 시사하였다. 셋째, 본 연구는 영유아 돌봄에 대한 적절한 업적평가를 위한 현행법 개정 및 보완을 통해 보육교직원의 사회적 인정 당위성을 제시하였다는 연구의 의의를 갖는다.

  • The purpose of this study was to provide basic data for the development of a prototype of a garment that allows middle aged men to look idealized by examining the type of perception of middle aged men based on their subjective evaluation and their characteristics. This study used the Q methodology, which is a subjective research method that finds correlations among middle aged men across subjective attributes. The types of perception of body shape of middle aged men were analyzed as three types: leaning forward shape with bird legs, developed upper body shape with thick legs, protruding abdomen obesity body shape. The leaning forward shape with bird legs was recognized as the lowest in the BMI index, and the shoulder and chest were sagging, legs were thinner than the body and leaned forward. And that the hip were protruding and had a flat rectangular shape. Developed upper body shape with thick legs was the second overweight type of BMI index. It was recognized that the ankle and calf thighs were thick and the upper abdomen protruded upper body development body. Protruding abdomen obesity body shape was the most obese type with BMI index. In this type, the height was the smallest, and the upper abdomen came out and the abdomen protruded, and the abdomen was more exuded than the chest, and the neck was thick and the hips were recognized as the big body. The middle aged men's recognitive body shape was classified as a similar to actual body shape. However, in the recognition type, the frontal and side body types were mixed and classified. It is necessary to study the ergonomic pattern considering the features of each body type. This suggests that psychological effects can be obtained that allow the body shape that changes with age to be accepted more positively.

  • Objective : The goal of this study was to investigate the characteristics of early maladaptive schemas (EMSs), and associated neurocognitive functions as seen in visitors for military designation process. Methods : This retrospective study included 111 males aged 18 to 24 years among three groups: 41 visitors for military designation process (VMD), 21 patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and 49 healthy subjects. We collected the results of the Young Schema Questionnaire, Symptom Checklist-90-Revised, three neurocognitive tests as well as their clinicodemographic data. We analyzed the differences in EMSs between these three groups, and the correlations among the identified EMSs and neurocognitive performances within the VMD group. Results : Compared with both the OCD and healthy groups, the evaluation of the VMD group showed significantly higher scores in mistrust/abuse (F=6.4, p=0.002), vulnerability to harm (F=6.6, p<0.0001) and negativity/pessimism schema (F=7.3, p<0.0001), even when controlling for depression scores and levels of education. These three schemas also exhibited significant negative correlations with the score of Stroop test with r ranging from -0.34 to -0.44. Conclusion : These findings suggest that people who are likely to have difficulties adjusting to living in a military life may have psychological vulnerabilities related to certain EMSs. Further studies are warranted to test the clinical potentials of these findings, such as a treatment target and a predictor factor.

  • Background: Chronic nonspecific symptoms attributed to indoor nonindustrial work environments are common and may cause disability, but the medical nature of this disability is unclear. The aim was to medically characterize the disability manifested by chronic, recurrent symptoms and restrictions to work participation attributed to low-level indoor pollutants at workplace and whether the condition shares features with idiopathic environmental intolerance. Methods: We investigated 12 patients with indoor aire-related work disability. The examinations included somatic, psychological, and psychiatric evaluations as well as investigations of the autonomic nervous system, cortisol measurements, lung function, and allergy tests. We evaluated well-being, health, disability, insomnia, pain, anxiety, depression, and burnout via questionnaires. Results: The mean symptom history was 10.5 years; for disabling symptoms, 2.7 years. Eleven patients reported reactions triggered mainly by indoor molds, one by fragrances only. Ten reported sensitivity to odorous chemicals, and three, electric devices. Nearly all had co-occurrent somatic and psychiatric diagnoses and signs of pain, insomnia, burnout, and/or elevated sympathetic responses. Avoiding certain environments had led to restrictions in several life areas. On self-assessment scales, disability showed higher severity and anxiety showed lower severity than in physician assessments. Conclusion: No medical cause was found to explain the disability. Findings support that the condition is a form of idiopathic environmental intolerance and belongs to functional somatic syndromes. Instead of endless avoidance, rehabilitation approaches of functional somatic syndromes are applicable.

  • Background Gynecomastia is a common condition that can cause severe emotional and physical distress in both young and older men. Patients in whom symptomatic recalcitrant gynecomastia persists for a long time are potential candidates for surgery. Methods From January 2014 to January 2016, 15 patients underwent correction of gynecomastia through a single 3-mm incision at our institution. Only patients with true gynecomastia underwent surgery with this new technique. Through the small incision, sharp dissection was performed in a clockwise and counterclockwise direction describing two half-circles. Health-related quality of life and aesthetic outcomes were evaluated using a modified version of the Breast Evaluation Questionnaire (BEQ). Results The patients' average age was 23.5 years (range, 18-28 years), and their average body mass index was $23.2kg/m^2$ (range, $19.2-25.3kg/m^2$). One case was unilateral and 14 cases were bilateral. The weight of glandular tissue resected from each breast ranged from 80 to 170 g. No excess skin was excised. Bleeding was minimal. The mean operating time was 25 minutes (range, 21-40 minutes). No complications were recorded. All lesions were histologically benign. The patients' average score was 3.5 (on a 5-point Likert scale) in all domains of the BEQ for themselves and their partners. Conclusions In this study, we demonstrated the safety and reliability of a new technique that allows mastectomy through an imperceptible 3-mm incision. We obtained high patient satisfaction scores using our surgical technique, and patients reported considerable improvement in their social, physical, and psychological well-being after surgery.

  • 본 연구에서는 전기 근육 자극(electrical muscle stimulation, EMS)에 사용되는 기존의 하이드로겔 패드의 단점인 사용 편의성, 쾌적성 등을 보완할 수 있는 e-textile (electronic textile)을 이용한 전기 근육 자극(electrical muscle stimulation, EMS) 패드인 EMSCT (electrical muscle stimulation conductive textile)를 연구를 하고자 하였다. SWCNT (Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube)와 H2O의 농도 및 함침 공정 횟수를 변수로 하여, EMSCT는 5가지 직물(라디론, 네오프렌, 스판쿠션, 폴리100%, 베르가모)에 전도성을 부여하여 실험이 진행되었다. SWCNT (Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube)와 H2O을 이용한 패딩 공정을 거쳤으며, 교류 측정 결과 하이드로겔과 가장 유사한 교류를 나타내는 것은 SWCNT:H2O = 2:1의 베르가모 원단이라는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 편의성, 사용성, 심리적 만족성에 관한 사용성 평가를 통해 기존 하이드로겔 패드에 비해 EMSCT가 좋은 사용성을 가진다는 결과를 얻을 수 있다.
