1. The purpose of study The problem lies in the Sasang-constitutional-medicine is a subjectiveness of diagnosis that can be varied by every donor. Questionnare for the Sasang Constitution Classification II(QSCCII) was invented to solve this problem. This study was conducted for two purpose. The one is re-value the QSCCII. The other is to make a basis to upgrade QSCCII. 2. The method of study QSCCII was administered to 537 patients at Kyung Hee Oriental Medicine Hospital. Data was collected during 19 months from september 2000 to march 2002. For the purpose of this study, the collected data was analyzed by crosstabs, variation analysis and discrimination analysis. The analyzing program was SPSS 8.0 for Windows. And using this program I made the judgmental equation to re-value the QSCCII. 3. The result of study 1) not applied intensifying value The diagnostic discrimination abilities of the QSCCII is 61.5% about Taeyangin, 57.7% about Soyangin, 67.2% about Taeumin, 68.8% about Soemin. And its average is 65.0%. 2) applied intensifying value The diagnostic discrimination abilities of the QSCCII is 76.9% about Taeyangin, 59.9% about Soyangin, 68.9% about Taeumin, 71.2% about Soemin. And its average is 67.3%. 3) I propose a new diagnostic possibility with a different discriminant analysis and increase 42.3% of diagnostic discrimination ability considering 25% of accident diagnostic discrimination ability. 4) Development and complement of Taeyangin and Soyangin questions is needed to increase the accuracy of diagnosis.

This study was performed to analize the possibility of validation about Questionaire of Sasang constitution Classification which has been made through several stages for the purpose of promoting the objectivity of Sasang constitutional classification. The results of statistical research about the responses data of Sasang Questionaire are as follow: 1. In the case of mutual relation between the items of the QSCC(Questionaire of Sasang Constitution Classification) and 16PF, every item displaced singnificant result.(in male group) 2. In the investigation to classify the score distribution of Sasang items three groups and analize the gap of mean value in each of 16PF, the characters of each Sasang group were turn out as follows: (1) The Taee-Yang group has extrovert and narcissistic inclination. (2) The So-Yang group shows remarkable extrovert inclination. (3) The Tae-Eum group has hidden fear and introvert inclination. (4) The So-Eum group has revealed physical unstability and introvert inclination. 3. The statistical research of female group didn't display any significant result. It will be necessary to analize the respondent shape of female group and introduce new items to coincident with faminine psychology. 4. In the research using 16PF accompany with QSCC in order to classify the Sasang constitution, the accuracy rate of diagnosis showed inspiring elevation. For that reason, it seems to be desirable to introduce some items of 16PF into QSCC. According to above results, although QSCC contains several problems to be solved, its validity was proved, and the analysis of statistics suggests the possibility to step forward by introducing 16PF in some problems of promoting the accuracy of Sasang Constitutional diagnosis, assuring the objectibity of Sasang constitution classification and so on.

1. 연구배경 및 목적 : 사상의학은 사람의 체질을 넷으로 나누면서부터 출발한다. 그러나 체질을 판별하기 위해서는 사진(四診)을 중심으로 종합적으로 판단하게 되어 있어 객관성이 부족하기 쉽다. 체질을 객관적으로 진단하기 위한 여러 가지 방법 중에서 자기보고식 설문조사법이 일반적으로 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 설문조사법도 설문지의 종류에 따라서 다른 결과를 나타내는 경우가 많다. 본 연구는 사상체질을 진단하기 위해 사용되는 설문지별 체질분포 특성과 설문지간의 판정 일치도를 비교 분석하여 설문지로 사상체질 유형을 가려내는데 도움을 주고자 하였다. 2. 방법 1997년부터 1999년까지 특별한 질병이 없는 한국인 1595명(단QSCC I은 348명)을 대상으로 하여 사상변증내용설문조사지(I), 사상체질분류검사 I(QSCC I), 사상체질분류검사II(QSCCII)의 세가지 설문지를 작성하게 하여 그 결과를 비교하였다. 3. 연구결과 및 결론 : 체질분포 특성은 사상변증내용설문조사지(I)은 소음인(55.9%), 태음인(21.2%), 소양인(12.8%), 태양인(3.9%)의 순서를 보였고, 사상변증내용설문조사지(I)을 판별식을 이용하여 재분석한 결과에서는 태음인(39.1%), 소음인(33.6%), 소양인(27.3%)의 순서로 체질분포 경향을 보였다. QSCC I에서는 소양인(559.1%), 태양인(34.8%), 태음인(5.6%), 소음인(0.6%)의 순서를 보였고, QSCCII에서는 태음인(34.8%), 소음인(34.7%), 소양인(30.5%)의 순서로 체질분포 경향을 보였다. 체질판정 일치율은 사상변증내용설문조사지(I)과 이 자료를 판별식을 이용하여 판별한 결과가 제일 높았으나 이것은 동일 설문지를 재분석한 것이며, 다음은 사상변증내용설문조사지(I)의 판별식에 의한 분석법과 QSCCII의 일치율이 55.6%로 높게 나타났다. 설문지를 이용하여 체질을 임상적으로 진단할 때는 사상변증내용설문조사지(I)을 판별식을 이용한 결과와 QSCCII의 결과를 함께 참고하여 체질진단에 이용하는 것이 가장 타당한 방법이라고 생각되며, QSCC I을 체질진단에 이용하는 것은 바람직하지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

Proceeding an objective Study of sasang constitution diagnosis by Sound Analysis which uses Computed Sound lab(CSL), we verified the confidence level of Questionnaire of Sasang Constitution classification II(QSCC II) and the first results of Sound Analysis for verifying correlation between the physical character and Sound character are as follows. 1. The confidence level of QSCC II is 70.8% to Soeumin, 60.8% to Soyangin, 74.5% to Taeumin, and 70.08% in total. But, the actual results of verifying the confidence level after making 100 persons an object of study, are that the confidence level of that is 55.10% to Soeumin, 30.77% to Soyangin, 80.00% to Taeumin, and 55.29% in total. So it doesn't coincide with the confidence lecel of QSCC II 70.8%. 2. The results of verifying the confidence level about other 134 persons after enough explanation before the constitutional diagnosis by QSCC II are that the confidence of that is 71.08 to Soeumin, 54.76% to Soyangin 81.82% to Taeumin, and 69.22% in total. 3. The results of verifying the correlation between B.M.I. and Sasang Costitution are that there are significant differences below P<0.001 between Taeumin and Soeumin, and between Taeumin and Soyangin. 4. Height and Weight influence on a fundamental frequency and formant frequency. 5. There are differences for every constitutions in a amplitude when we nave a Sound analysis. As aboves, it is considered that we can find the differences among the constitutional groups, if we have a Sound analysis of the constitutional Sound characters.

Objectives: We intended to know sensitivity, specificity and relation of diagnosis methods of Sasang Constitution. Methods: We compared QSCC II, PSSC, Body measurement dignosis results with gold standard ones which were diagnosed by Sasang Constitution specialist, and analyzed by crosstables to get the sensitivity and specificity of those. Results and conclusions 1. Sensitivity and specificity of one diagnosis method were low, so call, in QSCC II, Taeumin is 49% in sensitivity, 97% in specificity, Soeumin is 67%, 69%, Soyangin is 59%, 75%, in Body measurement, Taeumin is 66%, 89%, Soeumin is 70%, 82%, Soyangin is 49%, 78%. in PSSC, Taeumin is 57%, 90%, Soeumin is 88%, 62%, Soyangin is 18%, 88%. 2. When two diagnosis methods are consistent each other, sensitivity and specificity are more higher than one diagnosis method. 3. When three diagnosis methods are all consistent, sensitivity and specificity are most highest, but in Soyangin, those are decreased comparing with the case of consistency between QSCC II and Body measurement.

Objectives: Many studies have been reported about Sasang constitutional distribution of cerebrovascular disease(CVD) patients. But there has been little study about the risk factors of normal persons between Sasang constitutions. So we studied to evaluate the risk of CVD between Sasang constitutions. Methods: We retrospectively studied subjects without previous stroke($age{\geq}40$) who visited east-west medical examination center in Kang Nam Korean Hosipital, Kyung Hee University for last 2 years(1998.8.1.${\sim}$2000.7.31.). Sasang constitutional differentiation was performed by Questionnaire for the Constitution Classification(QSCC) II and subjects who couldn't be classifiea by QSCC II were excluded. Results : Total 363 subjects participated in this study(Taeyangin 0, Taeumin 103, Soyangin 113, Soumin 92, obscure 55). Diabetes mellitus(p<0.05), hyperlipidemia(p<0.01), obesity(p=0.000) were significantly prevalent in Taeumin. Hypertension and heart disease had no significant difference between Sasang constitutions. Conclusions: This study showed that the risk factors of CVD were more prevalent in Taeumin. Therefore we guess that Taeumin has high risk of CVD.
