There are many differences in the present conditions of Oriental Health care and the study of Sasang Constitution Medicine between in North Korea and South Korea. 1. The government of South Korea hasn't supported Oriental Medicine with administrative plans but that of North Korea has supported it positively and made efforts to systematize it. 2. The government of North Korea has considered Oriental Medicine and Western Medicine as mutual supplementary relationship and tried to harmonize them, invested human being and material resources in developing affirmative aspects of Oriental Medicine. That efforts of them made O.M of North Korea developed. 3. In North Korea, they has studied about the principles of O.M. generally in a laboratory. 4. In North Korea, only herbs nation warrant and satisfy standards and fixed orders can be circulated. 5. Because the Sasang Constitution Medicine is opposite to aspect of Materialism, they exclude that from Korean Medicine subjects. They only use them for clinical remedy. But recently, they concern Sasang Constitution Medicine more and more. So also in South Korea, we need to strengthen the political support of the government and the research of laboratory.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to determine a distribution of sasang constitution among dyspepsia patients, and to weigh their symptoms score. Methods : We surveyed symptoms of dyspepsia and QSCCII in one hundred dyspepsia patients who had undergone upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Results : In distribution of sasang constitution in total dyspepsia patients group and distribution according to the result of endoscopy, ratio and symptoms score of So-Eum-tn were higher than the others. However the differences were not statistically significant. According to symptoms score by age, symptoms score of Tae-Eum-In in patients above 35 years old group was higher than the others. In patients group under 35 years old, symptoms score of So- Yang-In is higher than the others. However in neither group was this statistically significant.

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.

1. Objectives and Methods This study was performed to investigate the relationship between Sasang constitution and decision making style. Subjects were 69 men and 45 women. Decision making style score, physical measurements and results were measured and analyzed according to Sasang constitution. 2. Results Soeumin group had significantly high score in rational score compared with those of Soyangin. Soyangin group had significantly high score in intuitive score compared with those of Soeumin. Soeumin group had significantly high score in dependent score compared with those of Taeeumin. According to binary logistic regression analysis for decision making style score, Sasang constitution were significant risk factors and ORs of Taeeumin were significantly higer than those of Soyangin in rational score, ORs of Soyangin were significantly higer than those of Soeumin in intuitive score, and ORs of Soeumin were significantly higer than those of Taeeumin in dependent Score. 3. Conclusions Soyangin had significantly high score in intuitive score. Soeumin had significantly high score in dependent score. We found many evidences that Soyangin is intuitive style and Soeumin dependent style in the text of ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon${\lrcorner}$ and other research. But as far as Taeeumin was concerned, the result of Taeeurnin’s was not coincident with other research. More cases and research were needed to confirm the personality and phychological type of Taeeumin. This study result will be an important method that classify Sasang Costitution and consultation of student career decision making and studying attitude.

사상의학(四象醫學)에 있어서 체질변증(體質辨證)은 매우 중요한 과제로서 많은 의가(醫家)들에 의해 연구되고 있으나 지금까지 객관적으로 인정된 방법은 없다고 하겠다. 본 연구는 성문(聲紋)과의 상관성(相關性)을 통하여 사상체질(四象體質) 변증(辨證)에 도움이 되고자 하였다. 태음인(太陰人) 26명, 소음인(少陰人) 25명, 소양인(少陽人) 15명의 음성(音聲)울 녹음하여 시간 측정을 하였고, 성문분석기로 음성의 기본주파수(基木周波數)를 분석하여 비교하였으며 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 태음인, 소음인, 소양인의 측정된 문장 발음 속도는 유사한 경향을 보였다. 2. 기본주파수 빈도분포그래프와 정규분포 그래프에서 태음인의 중심값이 소음인과 소양인에 비해 낮게 나타났으며, 소음인과 소양인 사이의 중심값은 유사한 경향을 보였다. 3. 기본주파수 빈도분포 그래프와 정규분포 그래프에서 폭의 경우는 체질 간에 유사한 경향을 보였다. 4. 세 체질의 기본주파수 평균값의 경우 태음인은 소음인에 비해 낮게 나타나서 태음인과 소음인은 통계학적으로 유의적인 차이점이 인정되었으며, 이는 태음인의 저음 사용이 소음인에 비하여 많음을 의미 한다고 볼 수 있다. 따라서 성문의 기본주파수 분석을 통한 사상체질 분류검사방법은 사상체질의 객관화를 위한 하나의 보조적인 방법이 될 수 있다고 사료된다. 제언 및 문제점 1. 문장뿐만 아니라 실제 대화음성의 분석이 필요할 것으로 생각된다. 2. 좀 더 많은 자료의 수집 분석이 필요하며, 남성뿐만 아니라 여성과 연령별로의 분석도 연구되어야 한다고 생각된다. 3. 녹음시의 여러 변수, 예를 들연 녹음시의 잡음, 조사대상자의 긴장, 또는 감기나 기타 질병으로 인한 음성변화 등에 대한 문제점도 주의해야 할 것으로 생각된다. 4. 기본주파수이외의 다른 변수, 예를 들어 공명주파수나 음의 강도등을 이용한 체질과의 상관성에 관한 연구가 필요하다고 생각된다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the location of LI20 and ST3 by facial measurement according to Sasang Costitution, Sex and Age. Methods : To collect the photograph of face, we used the face measurement apparatus, and then analysed whether ST3 was located out of the nasolabial sulcus or not. Results : ST3 was located at the lateral to the nasolabial sulcus in 94.9%; 92.1% of Soyangin, 97.7% of Taeumin, 94.4% of Soeumin 92.3% of male, and 92.3% of female according to Sasang Constitution and sex. According to age distribution, the highest percentage(100%) was appeared at $16{\sim}20$ age, and the lowest(91.8%) was appeared at $70{\sim}74$ age. Conclusion : This study suggests that actual measurement would be nessesary with classical literature to determine the location of acupuncture point, and we need more study in other race.
