연구목적 : 초기 청소년 ADHD 고위험군을 과잉행동-충동성을 동반하지 않는 부주의성 유형(ADHD-I)과 과잉행동-충동성을 동반한 유형(ADHD-HI/C)으로 분류한 후, 이들 간에 기질 및 기질 적합성과 문제행동에서의 차이점을 비교하고자 하였다. 방법 : 서울 모 남자 중학교 1, 2학년생과 그 부모를 대상으로 연구를 실시하였다. ADHD 고위험군을 선정하기 위해 ADHD 행동증상을 평정하는 세 척도 '((1)' 한국어판 ADHD 평가척도, (2) 부모용 단축형 코너스 평가척도, (3) 청소년용 단축형 코너스-웰스 자가평정척도)를 사용하여 2개 척도 이상에서 상위 $20\%$에 해당하는 경우를 고위험군으로 선정하였고, 이 중 ADHD평정척도의 부주의성 차원과 과잉행동/충동성 차원을 활용하여 각각 상위 $20\%$의 조합으로 하위유형을 분류하였다. 최종 연구대상은 ADHD-I 고위험군이 25명, ADHD-HI/C 고위험군이 70명, 정상군이 70명 이었다. 기질 및 기질 적합도를 측정하기 위해 학생들에게는 '개정판 기질차원척도' (DOTS-R)를, 부모에게는 '개정판 기질차원척도 : 맥락' (DOTS-R : Ethnotheory)을 사용하였으며, 문제행동 특성을 평가하기 위해 '한국판 청소년 문제행동 자가평정 척도' (K-YSR)를 이용하였다. 결과 : 기질 면에서는 ADHD-HI/C 고위험군이 다른 집단에 비해 '일반적인 활동수준' (general activity)이 두드러지게 높았다. 부모의 기대 맥락에서는 '일반적인 활동수준'에서 ADHD-HI/C 고위험군이 다른 두 집단에 비해 높아 자녀의 활동성에 대한 기대가 컸으며, '새로운 자극에 대한 융통/경직성' (flexibility/rigidity) 및 '기분' (mood) 면에서 세 집단 간에 차이가 유의미했는데 특히 자녀의 긍정적 기분을 기대하는 수준에서 ADHD-I 고위험군의 부모와 ADHD-HI/C 고위험군의 부모간에 유의한 차이가 있었다. 기질 적합도에서는 '기분'과 관련하여 세 집단 간에 차이가 유의미했는데, 특히 ADHD 고위험군의 두 하위유형은 정상군보다 '기분'과 관련된 적합도과 낮아 정서적인 차원에서 부모-자녀 간 부적합성이 ADHD의 행동증상과 관련되어 있음을 시사하였다. 문제행동 영역에서는 ADHD-HI/C 고위험군이 내면화 및 외현화 문제 모두에서 뚜렷하게 문제행동이 많은 것으로 나타났으며, ADHD 하위유형별로 비교할 때 외현화 문제에서는 ADHD-HI/C 고위험군이 ADHD-I 고위험군에 비해 유의하게 심각했지만 내면화 문제에서는 두 유형 간에 심각도의 차이가 유의하지 않았다. 결론 : 초기 청소년 ADHD 고위험군의 기질 및 기질 적합성 특성이 하위유형에 따라 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 청소년 ADHD 행동증상 및 하위유형의 발현이 기질 뿐 아니라 환경과의 상호작용과 중요한 관련이 있음을 시사하였다. 또한 청소년 ADHD 행동증상과 하위유형은 기질 특성에서는 활동성 차원이, 기질 적합성 특성에서는 기분 차원이 연관이 있었다. 문제행동 특성에서는 하위유형별로 서로 다른 양상을 보였다.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is characterized by persistent deficits in social communication and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior and interest. Sleep problems are not uncommon in children with autism spectrum disorders. Symptoms of insomnia are the most frequent sleep problems in individuals with ASD. Sleep problems can cause significant difficulties in the daily life of children with ASD and their families. Genetic factor, deregulations of melatonin synthesis, extraneous environmental stimuli and psychiatric and medical conditions may cause sleep problems. The first line treatment of sleep problems in ASD includes managements for potential contributing factors and parent education about sleep hygiene care for child and behavioral therapy. Supplementation with melatonin may be effective before considering other medications, such as risperidone, clonidine, and mirtazapine.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of clinical and psychological factors on the self-concept of children and adolescents with epilepsy. Methods: Children and adolescents with epilepsy (n=60; age range=9-17 years) completed questionnaires about their epilepsy-related variables, self-concept, depressive symptoms, anxiety, family functions, and behavioral problems. The T-test and one-way analysis of variance were used to examine the variables affecting the total self-concept scores. To determine the independent variables by adjusting the significant variables, a stepwise regression analysis was performed. Results: In the correlational analysis, age, depressive symptoms, anxiety, social problems, attention problems, and internalizing problems had significantly negative correlations with self-concept. On the other hand, IQ and family functions showed positive correlations with selfconcept. Age (${\beta}=-0.177$, p=0.015), depressive symptoms (${\beta}=-0.487$, p<0.001), anxiety (${\beta}=-0.298$, p=0.008), and attention problems (${\beta}=-0.138$, p=0.048) were analyzed as independent factors to assess their impact on self-concept, and were found to account for 78.3% of the variance in self-concept by stepwise regression analysis. Conclusion: Parents and clinicians should pay attention to improving the self-concept of children and adolescents with epilepsy, especially if they have problems with depression, anxiety, or attention.

This study is about major symptoms of elderly and medical services for elderly in long-tenn care facilities. The subject of this study was 298 patients over 00 years old staying in two geriatric hospitals and two nursing homes. The symptoms and medical services were level of patient classification from RUG(Resource Utilization Group)-III which is applied for both Medicare and Medicaid for skilled nursing facilities reimbursement system in US and designed for measuring patient characteristics and medical staff time. This classification is explained by each patient resource(staff time) utilization level which is called CMI(Case-Mix Index). In this study, the symptoms and services were compared by facility type and they were categorized by level and compared by CMI. Major findings are as follows; 1. There were more elderly who have cognitive function problems in nursing homes than patients in geriatric hospitals. There were more patients with behavioral problems in geriatric hospitals than residents in nursing homes. These results were both statistically significant. 2. The patients in geriatric hospitals received significantly more nursing rehabilitation services, rehabilitation services and extensive services than residents in nursing homes. Other hands, special care services were provided significantly more to residents in nursing homes than elderly in geriatric hospitals. 3. ADL and depression variables had higher CMI when the symptoms were heavier condition. The CMI were not matched with levels of cognitive function problems and behavioral problems. 4. The CMI matched well significantly with levels of nursing rehabilitation services, special care services, and clinically complex services provided for the patient in geriatric hospitals and only nursing rehabilitation services in nursing homes. The CMI for rehabilitation services level and extensive services had regular trends. From the result of this study, the resource utilization level and services provided for elderly in each long-term care facilities were figured out. For the further study, it needs to have more concern about RUG-ill which classification variables were just analyzed.

연구목적 소위 '행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매 표현형모사 증후군(behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia phenocopy syndrome)' 환자들은 일차성 정신장애와 감별이 힘들고, 기존의 치료 약물에 대한 반응도 회의적이어서, 오진의 위험과 법적 문제의 유발 가능성이 높으므로, 이러한 양상을 보이는 환자군에 대한 지속적인 관심과 연구가 필요함을 환기 시키기 위해서 본 연구를 시행하였다. 방법 2000년 부터 2016년 까지 발행된 영문 학술지에 게재된 논문을 인터넷에서 'frontotemporal', 'phenocopy', 'behavioral'과 같은 단어의 조합으로 검색하여 찾은 참고문헌을 정리, 고찰하였다. 또한 저자가 직접 경험한 두 증례를 간략히 기술하였다. 결과 환자의 행동 증상은 가족과 지역사회에 큰 영향을 끼치므로 행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매에서 정확한 진단이 중요하다. 그러나, 행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매에서 현재까지 질병 수정 치료법은 개발되지 않았으며, 현재의 약물학적 치료는 특수한 증상에 도움이 될 뿐이고, 적절한 정신의학적 치료에도 불구하고 점진적인 퇴행이 진행된다. 상당수의 '행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매 의심(possible bvFTD)' 환자에서 임상적으로 '행동증상 아형 전두측두엽 치매 가능(probable bvFTD)'으로 진행되지 않으며, 인지기능이나 사회적 기능이 저하되지 않고, 활동 기능의 저하를 보이지 않으며, 생존기간이 조금 더 길고, 수년에 걸쳐서 정상적인 뇌영상화 검사 소견을 보인다. 결론 환전두측두엽 치매 및 일차성 정신장애 환자에서 보이는 전형적인 임상적 양상이나 경과, 뇌영상화 검사를 포함한 진단적 평가와는 다른 비전형적인 소견을 보이는 환자군들은 생각보다 많으며, 정신의학과 의사들이 이에 대한 의학적 지식과 판별 능력이 발전되면, 그 발견의 비율은 훨씬 더 높아질 것이다. 그러나, 현재로서는 이러한 비전형적인 환자군의 정체에 대해서는 이견이 많으며, 향후 적극적인 연구가 행해져야할 분야이다.

Purpose. A natural disaster negatively affects children's emotional and behavioral adjustment. The purpose of this paper was to examine the prevalence, symptoms, and correlates of PTSD after the occurrence of Typhoon Rusa. Method. 261 elementary school children living in Kimcheon, which was a devastated rural area in South Korea by Typhoon Rusa, were selected. Data were collected 4 months after the disaster using the PTSD Reaction Index categories recommended by Frederick, severity of PTSD. Results. 12.3% of the children had either moderate or severe PTSD symptoms; 22.7% reported mild symptoms; and the remaining 65% had sub-clinical symptoms of PTSD. The most frequent symptom was recurrenct fear(67.0%). 13% to 17.2% of children exhibited difficulty in concentration, sleep disturbance, and guilt feeling. The regression model of severity of PTSD was composed of the level of exposure to traumatic experiences, grade in school, gender, negative coping style, and social support, and explained 34.3% for PTSD symptoms. Exposure to traumatic experiences was the strongest factor of all predictors. Conclusion. Emotional support from friends and coping style were correlated with PTSD severity. School-based interventions that emphasizes coping with disaster related problems and problem-solving may prove to be useful, and may aid in building close and supportive ties with teachers, classmates, and friends.

Purpose: To examine the prevalence of depressive symptoms and differentiate factors associated with them in urban and rural areas by applying the Ecological Models of Health Behavior. Methods: We employed a cross-sectional design and convenience sample of 460 female adolescents. The instruments included the Adolescent Mental-Health Problem-Behavior Questionnaire (AMPQ-II) and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). Results: Depressive symptoms were confirmed in 15.7% of urban adolescents and 22.9% of rural adolescents (p<.05). In the urban group, perception of health and stress associated with school performance were significantly associated with depressive symptoms. In the rural group, academic/internet related problems and rule violations were significantly associated with depressive symptoms (p<.05). General life happiness, worry/anxiety, and mood/suicidal ideation were common factors in both urban and rural areas (p<.05). Conclusion: Multiple factors were associated with depressive symptoms, and those significant factors differed between urban and rural female youths. Accordingly, tailored approaches are required considering urban and rural differences. The approaches should include intrapersonal, interpersonal, and organizational levels of interventions.

This study was performed to assess the nutritional status and hair mineral content of children with behavioral problems and compare the values with a gender, age-matched control group. The subjects were recruited from S elementary school children in Seoul, Korea. Students scored higher than 60 points were diagnosed with behavioral problems according to the Korean-Child Behavior Checklist. Nutritional assessment of the two groups (behavior problem group: male n=15, female n=24; $9.6{\pm}1.6$ years, control group: male n=16, female n=18; $9.5{\pm}1.9$ years) was performed using a nutritional survey and by measuring hair mineral contents. In the results, food frequency questionnaire analysis showed that the intakes of anchovy (P<0.05), soybean curb (P<0.01), radish (P<0.05), bean sprouts (P<0.05), spinach (P<0.05), carrot (P<0.05), pumpkin (P<0.05), lettuce (P<0.05), cabbage (P<0.01), apple (P<0.05), and milk (P<0.01) were higher in the control group than the behavior problem group, whereas intakes of ramyeon (P<0.05), cookies (P<0.05), and coke (P<0.01) were higher in the behavior problem group than the control group. Intakes of most nutrients such as plant-derived protein (P<0.05), fiber (P<0.05), plant-derived calcium (P<0.05), phosphorus (P<0.05), plant-derived iron (P<0.05), vitamin B2 (P<0.05), vitamin B6 (P<0.05), vitamin C (P<0.01), vitamin E (P<0.05), and folate (P<0.05) were significantly higher in the control group than the behavior problem group. Hair analysis showed that the levels of arsenic (P<0.05), mercury (P<0.001), uranium (P<0.05), iron (P<0.001), boron (P<0.01), and germanium (P<0.001) were lower, but the levels of phosphate (P<0.05), chromium (P<0.001), sodium (P<0.05), and sulfur (P<0.001) were higher in the behavior problem group than the control group. Conclusively, behavioral problems constitute a complicated condition in which nutritional factors may play major roles. However, it is still under investigation as to whether or not modification of dietary habits or nutritional supplementation can improve children's behavior, since symptoms require a broad understanding of the environmental and genetic interactions.

The purpose of this study was to measure the prevalence of urinary incontinence (UI), urologic symptoms, chronic health problems they have, and to explore whether the differences in incidence of UI ware by age, sex, voiding pattern, and chronic health problems. Method: 298 subject were selected, age range from 60 to 94 years residing in one city, in republic of Korea. Data was collected presence of UI, urologic symptoms, chronic health problems, knowledge, and the discomfort with incontinent. Collected data was analyzed with frequency, percentage, t-test, and $\chi$2-test. Result: The results of this study are as follows: 1. Mean age was 71.4 years. Prevalent rate of UI was 17.0%, woman showed more than man. 2. UI incidence was significant in age (t=7.84, p=.000), sex ($\chi$2 =9.47, p=.002), and voiding frequency ($\chi$2=18.34, p=.000). Also, UI incidence was significant relationship with chronic health problem of heart disease ($\chi$2 =10.65, p=0.001), hypertension ($\chi$2=4.04, p= 0.046) and respiratory problem ($\chi$2=9.67, p=0.002). 3. The UI was grouped into urgent incontinence (45%), stress incontinence (33%), and combined (22%). UI occurred during the daytime 48% and 17% at night. 4. Only 9.8 % of the UI seek advice and/or treatment for their symptoms, almost 90 % remained untreated due to lack of knowledge or improper information. 5. The discomforts due to their UI was no significant difference in their condition, the urgent use of the rest room, leaking urine, and nocturia. Conclusion: This study suggests that 1 year and 3 year follow-up study is needed to compare health status of UI. Also suggests intervention study for urologic discomfort of incontinent and behavioral education for the elderly are needed.
