  • Background: Cigarette smokers have their own motivation and justification to smoke. For example, smoking reduces their stress or enhances their pleasure. This study aimed to identify the (a) prevalence of cigarette smokers among undergraduates in Malaysia, (b) gender differences in nicotine dependence among current smokers, (c) differences in psychological problems (depression, anxiety and stress) based on the status of smoking cigarettes (current, former and non-smokers) and (d) extent to which precipitating factors (tension reduction, addiction, automatism, handling, social interaction, pleasure, and stimulation) predict the smoking behavior among current smokers. Materials and Methods: In this study 780 undergraduate students participated from a private university in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor state in Malaysia. The Depression, Stress and Anxiety Scale, Modified Reason for Smoking Scale and Fagerstrom Nicotine Dependence Test were used to measure psychological problems, predictors of smoking behavior and nicotine dependency among current smokers. Results: The results showed that 14.7%(n=106) of the students were smokers. Current smokers exhibited more psychological problems (depression, anxiety and stress) compared to former and non-smokers. Addiction, tension reduction, pleasure and automatism were predictors of smoking behavior among the current smoking students. Step wise regression analysis showed that smoking behavior was highly predicted by nicotine dependency or addiction. Smoking students were motivated to smoke cigarettes as they believed that it reduced their tension and enhance pleasure. Conclusions: Hence, there is a need for health promotion and anti-tobacco prevention as cigarette smokers experience more psychological problems. Nicotine dependency or addition was one of the major causes for smoking behavior among the student population in Malaysia.

  • Purpose: To identify characteristics of chronic fatigue, difference between the duration of fatigue and characteristics of chronic fatigue, and association between chronic fatigue and related factors in adults. Method: The subjects for this study were 180 adults who had experienced fatigue for over one month The measurement tools were the Revised Fatigue Scale by Chalder et al. (1993), the Visual Analogue Scale-energy developed by Lee et al. (1991), the BEPSI (Brief Encounter Psychosocial Instrument) by Frank & Zyzanski (1988), Zung's self rating depression scale (1965) and life style items including exercise sleep, drinking smoking and diet as developed by the researchers. Results : Those who complained of fatigue over six months experienced higher disturbances in their daily life compared to those who had suffered from fatigue less than six months. There were a significant correlation between severity of fatigue and depression (r=.46, p<.001), stress (r=.41, p<.001), and sleep (r=.20, p<.01) Statistically significant relationships were found between severity of fatigue and amount of exercise per week (F=3.79. p<.05) disturbed sleep (t=-2.66, p<.01), number of times awakened during the night (F=3.48, p<.05) types of drinking (F=2.65, p<.05), and diet regularity (F=5.83, p<.01). The construction of a multiple regression model revealed an adjusted $R^2$ of .27 with the depression score serving the major predictor variables for severity of fatigue. Men and people in the younger age group were more energetic than women and those in other age groups. Also married people experienced more fatigue than people who were single. divorced or separated. Conclusion: In nursing interventions for fatigue, medical personnel should consider sociodemographic characteristics of the clients, ways to reduce of stress and counter disturbances in daily life and develop strategies for a health promoting life style.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: This study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of a sodium reduction program at local restaurants through nutrition education and examination of the health of restaurant owners and cooks.SUBJECTS/METHODS: The study was a single-arm pilot intervention using a pre-post design in one business district with densely populated restaurants in Seoul, South Korea. The intervention focused on improving nutrition behaviors and psychosocial factors through education, health examination, and counseling of restaurant personnel. Forty-eight restaurant owners and cooks completed the baseline survey and participated in the intervention. Forty participants completed the post-intervention survey. RESULTS: The overweight and obesity prevalences were 25.6% and 39.5%, respectively, and 74.4% of participants had elevated blood pressure. After health examination, counseling, and nutrition education, several nutrition behaviors related to sodium intake showed improvement. In addition, those who consumed less salt in their baseline diet (measured with urine dipsticks) were more likely to agree that providing healthy foods to their customers is necessary. This study demonstrated the potential to reduce the sodium contents of restaurant foods by improving restaurant owners' and cooks' psychological factors and their own health behaviors. CONCLUSIONS: This small pilot study demonstrated that working with restaurant owners and cooks to improve their own health and sodium intake may have an effect on participation in restaurant-based sodium reduction initiatives. Future intervention studies with a larger sample size and comparison group can focus on improving the health and perceptions of restaurant personnel in order to increase the feasibility and efficacy of restaurant-based sodium reduction programs and policies.

  • 본 연구는 북한이탈청소년의 우울, 스트레스 및 자아존중감과 같은 사회심리적 측면을 중심으로 건강증진생활양식과의 관계를 알아보고자 하며, 특히 성인에 비해 정신적으로 성숙하지 못한 청소년기에 대한 이해를 높이고자 하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 북한이탈청소년 150명을 대상으로 설문조사를 하였으며 대상에서 제외된 설문지 65부를 제외한 85부가 최종분석에 사용되었다. 건강증진생활양식에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하기 위해 다중 선형회귀분석(multiple linear regression)을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 일반적 자아, 학교 자아, 스트레스가 건강증진생활양식에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 본 연구는 북한이탈청소년의 사회 심리적 요인인 스트레스, 자아존중감이 건강증진생활양식에 영향을 미치는 것을 파악하였으며, 북한이탈청소년들의 건강증진을 위해 자아존중감의 확립이 필요하다는 것을 시사한다. 앞으로 남한사회의 일원이 될 북한이탈청소년을 안정적으로 정착시키기 위한 사회 심리적인 측면에서의 지원 프로그램이 더욱 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

  • Background: Organizations are pursing complex and diverse aims to generate higher profits. Many workers experience high work intensity such as workload and work pressure in this organizational environment. Especially, psychological burden is a commonly used term in workplace of Republic of Korea. This study focused on defining the psychological burden from the perspective of occupational safety and health and tried to develop a scale for psychological burden. Methods: The 48 preliminary questionnaire items for psychological burden were prepared by a focus group interview with 16 workers through the Copenhagen Psychosocial Questionnaire II and Mindful Awareness Attention Scale. The preliminary items were surveyed with 572 workers, and exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, and correlation analysis were conducted for a new scale. Results: As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, five factors were extracted: organizational activity, human error, safety and health workload, work attitude, and negative self-management. These factors had significant correlations and reliability, and the stability of the model for validity was confirmed using confirmatory factor analysis. Conclusion: The developed scale for psychological burden can measure workers' psychological burden in relation to safety and health. Despite some limitations, this study has applicability in the workplace, given the relatively small-sized questionnaire.

  • 최근 e-sports에 대한 사회적 관심이 증대하면서 게임 리더십과 관련된 심리사회적인 요인들을 발굴하기 위한 노력이 점증하고 있다. 게임 리더십이란 게임 내에서 주어진 과제를 효율적으로 수행하기 위해 필요한 능력을 가리키는 것으로, e-sports 경기 진행과 팀워크 향상을 위해 매우 필요한 역량이라고 할 수 있다. 이러한 점에 착안하여 본 연구는 심리적 요인(자기통제, 사회지능, 자존감)과 게임 동기, 게임 효능감이 게임 리더십과 어떤 관계를 맺고 있는지를 살펴보고자 했다. 이를 위해 MOBA(Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) 장르를 이용하는 청소년 196명의 데이터를 활용하여 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 인터넷 게임 이용시간, 사회지능, 게임 효능감은 모두 게임 리더십과 정적인 관계를 보이고 있었다. 이와 함께 게임 동기 요인 중 사회성, 탐험 그리고 도피 동기가 게임 리더십과 유의미한 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 자존감과 자기통제는 게임 리더십에 아무런 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이후 결과를 분석하고 논의하였다.

  • Objective: This study investigated the relationship between orthodontic treatment and temporomandibular disorders (TMD) in South Korean population. Methods: This study obtained data from the 2012 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The final sample size was 5,567 participants who were ${\geq}19$ years of age. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between orthodontic treatment and TMD. Results: Participants who underwent orthodontic treatment showed higher educational level, lower body mass index, reduced chewing difficulty, and reduced speaking difficulty. The adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for orthodontic treatment and TMD were 1.614 (1.189-2.190), 1.573 (1.162-2.129) and 1.612 (1.182-2.196) after adjusting for age, sex and psychosocial factors. Adjusted ORs and their 95% CIs for orthodontic treatment and clicking were 1.778 (1.289-2.454), 1.742 (1.265-2.400) and 1.770 (1.280-2.449) after adjusting for confounding factors. However, temporomandibular joint pain and functional impairment was not associated with orthodontic treatment. Conclusions: Temporomandibular joint pain and dysfunction was not associated with orthodontic treatment.
