The purpose of this study was to identify school adjustment groups by applying a Latent Profile Analysis(LPA) and to investigate the effects of children's emotional problems and study habits on determining the membership of these groups. LPA and multiple logistic regression were conducted using the data of 2,200 third-graders from the Korean Children and Youth Panel Study. The results are listed as follows. First, four school adjustment groups were identified: adjustment, approach to adjustment, maladjustment risk, and maladjustment group. Second, accomplishment value and mastery goal orientation were relatively strong predictors of membership of the school adjustment groups. Time management was also a significant variable that predicted the membership of maladjustment or the maladjustment-risk group. Third, attention problems and depression were the most consistent predictors of membership of maladjustment or the maladjustment-risk group. Physical symptoms and social withdrawal were also significant. Based on the results, implications for intervention to promote early school adjustment were discussed.

This study aims to obtain basic data to develop clothes for dementia patients by classifying types of dementia patients. Data was collected from those dementia patients who entered a nursing home. This study analyzed a total of 221 sheets. Furthermore, descriptive statistics, cross-tabulation, and K-means clustering were performed for statistical processing using Minitab 14. As a result, dementia patients were classified into four types: inactive-dependent, active-problematic behavior, activity-autonomy, and inactive-offensive. Inactive-dependent type was a group with the most severe disability in cognitive and daily activity functions; however, they lacked behavioral and psychological symptoms and problematic behavior with clothes. Active-problematic behavior type showed the most behavioral and psychological problems and problematic behavior with clothes. Activity-autonomy type was a group without any problematic behaviors. Moreover, the inactive-offensive type had very good cognitive function toward humans. The study imply that it is necessary to provide clothes with proper functions based on the types of patients rather than providing them uniform clothes because clinical and clothes behaviors differ significantly depending on the types of dementia patients.

주의력결핍-과잉활동장애(ADHH)는 그 행동적 특징이 정상아동들간에도 흔히 나타날 수 있는 것으로 정상적 발달과정에서 나타나는 현상과의 구별이 어려운 경우가 있어 증상의 심각도를 양적수치로 평가하는것과 아울러 함께 각 연령별 규준에 비추어 판단하는 객관적 평가방법이 필요하다. 또한 ADHD의 증상은 상황에 따라, 그리고 사회적 맥락에 따라 나타나는 양상이 크게 다를수도 있어 가능한한 다양한 상황에서의 행동을 여러 평가자로부터 평가받아 이를 통합하는 과정이 필요하다. 구체적으로 부모 및 환아와의 면담, 각종 행동평가 척도, 행동의 관찰, 그리고 심리검사등 ADHD를 평가할 때 사용할 수 있는 방법 및 척도들이 논의되었으며, 평가의 목적에 따라 적절한 도구를 선택하여 활용하는 체계적이고 종합적인 평가의 중요함이 강조되었다.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the subjective perception structures and types of empathy among nurses caring for patients with behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) using Q-methodology. Methods: Thirty-eight Q-samples (statements) were derived from in-depth interviews with 10 nurses working in long-term care hospitals and nursing homes. The Q-sorting was conducted in rank order (the responses obtained by each of the 30 nurses working at 3 long-term care hospitals and 4 nursing homes) into a normal distribution grid (from -4 to +4). The types of empathy among participants were analyzed using the PC-QUANL program. Results: Five types of empathy accounting for 48.5% of the total variance were categorized as follows: (1) taking the patients' personality into consideration while helping, (2) interacting closely and emotionally, (3) supporting the patient as a companion, (4) performing the duty in a defensive manner, and (5) resolving patients' problems by focusing on their needs. Conclusion: This study shows that there are various types of empathy in nurses caring for patients with BPSD. Therefore, it is necessary to develop strategies and educative programs to enhance empathy competency and deal with burnout based on the type of empathy.

연구목적 알츠하이머병 환자들의 행동심리증상(BPSD)은 임상적인 문제들을 일으켜 결국 기능의 감퇴, 간병인 스트레스, 입원, 사망률의 증가를 가져온다. 최근의 연구는 성별차이가 BPSD에서 중요한 역할을 한다고 보고하고 있으나, BPSD와 성별 사이 연관에 대한 국내 연구는 시행된 적이 없었다. 이에 본 연구는 알츠하이머병 환자들의 BPSD가 성별 차이에 의해 영향을 받는 것인지를 검증해 보고자 실시하였다. 방 법 면담과 인지기능평가를 통해 DSM-IV 진단기준에 의하여 알츠하이머병으로 진단받은 98명의 환자들이 본 연구에 참가하였다. 간이정신상태검사(MMSE), 임상치매평가척도(CDR), 전반적 퇴화척도(GDS), 한국형 신경정신행동검사(K-NPI)를 사용하여 인지기능 및 BPSD를 평가하였다. 성별 차이를 확인하기 위해서 독립 t 검증을 사용하여 분석하였으며, MMSE, CDR, GDS와 NPI 사이의 관련성을 살펴보기 위해 피어슨 상관분석을 사용하였다. 결 과 알츠하이머병 환자들의 BPSD에서 통계적으로 유의미한 성별 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. MMSE와 NPI 총점, 그리고 NPI 하위영역인 환각과 유의한 상관관계를 보였으며, CDR의 경우 NPI 총점, 무감동/무관심, 과민/불안정과, GDS의 경우 NPI 하위영역인 환각과 유의한 상관관계를 나타내었다. 결 론 본 연구결과 우리나라 알츠하이머병 환자들의 BPSD에서 성별의 차이는 나타나지 않았지만, 추후 알츠하이머형 치매의 BPSD가 성별 차이에 의한 것인지 혹은 개인 차에 의한 것인지를 더 명확하게 밝혀내기 위한 광범위하고 지속적인 연구가 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Whenever a clinician manages the patients with depression, he may meet various problems that make it difficult to treat them. Even though he has good skills and knowledge about depression, some barriers will be appear during his practice. In general, the difficulties in treating depression are treatment-resistance, adverse effects of antidepressants, pregnancy in female patients, comorbid medical conditions, poor compliance, drug-drug interactions, and so on, which are related with pharmacological treatments. Here, only the two of them, the treatment-resistant depression and difficult problems concerned with pregnancy, were discussed. Some level of treatment resistance is the norm rather than the exception. As the treatment failure stems from inadequate treatment, it is important that the clinician should prescribe medications with sufficient doseage and adequate duration. And to overcome the treatment resistant depression the polypharmacy is necessary, in that case, the side effects and toxicities should be explored and managed immediately. So the clinician have to learn more about the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic mechanisms of each drugs used in treatment of depression. When the risk of the fetus by the exposure is higher than the risk of untreated maternal psychiatric disorder, psychotropic medications should be used during pregnancy. Women who are maintained on psychotropics and become pregnant, as well as women with the new onset of psychiatric symptoms during pregnancy, should be carefully reassessed. However, data concerning the potential risk of long-term behavioral changes following prenatal exposure to psychotropics is rare, so further longitudinal follow-up studies are needed.

목적 : 자폐 스펙트럼 장애(Autistic Spectrum Disorders, 이하 ASD)는 비전형적 감각 적응, 의사소통 문제, 상동 행동 등이 특징인 발달 장애로 섭식장애가 흔하게 동반된다. ASD 아동의 섭식장애는 감각, 구강운동, 행동, 인지, 사회성 등 다양한 원인으로 발생하며 주요 증상으로는 까다로운 먹기, 선택적 먹기, 음식 거부, 새로운 음식 거부, 음식 다양성 제한, 음식 혐오 등 다양하다. 또한 건강 및 영양 섭취 문제, 섭식 발달, 섭식 관련 사회성, 가족과 보호자의 스트레스 등 다양한 문제가 동반되기도 한다. ASD 아동의 섭식장애는 출생 후부터 나타날 수 있으며 일반적으로 진단이 이루어지는 3세 이전에 발생하기 때문에 적절한 중재 제공 전 공백이 발생할 수 있다. 보통 섭식장애 증상은 연령이 증가할수록 감소되는 경향이 있으나 증상 자체는 남아 있는 경우가 많아서 조기 평가 및 중재, 지속적인 확인이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 ASD 아동의 섭식장애 특성과 영향을 주는 요인, 중재법에 대한 일반적인 내용을 문헌 고찰을 통해 확인하였다. 결론 : ASD 아동의 섭식장애 중재로는 감각 기반 중재와 행동 기반 중재가 일반적이다. 감각 기반 중재는 음식 민감성, 행동 기반 중재는 음식 선택성에 효과적인 방법이다. 또한 ASD 아동의 섭식장애 증상이 다양한 만큼 감각 및 행동 기반 중재를 기본으로 놀이와 참여, 구강운동, 식이와 일상생활까지 포함된 종합적인 접근이 필요하다. 그러나 아직 ASD 아동의 섭식장애 중재를 위한 적절한 평가와 중재 프로토콜 및 가이드라인이 부족한 상황으로 보다 체계적인 이해를 바탕으로 한 복합적인 접근이 필요하다. 작업치료사 등 연하재활 전문가는 종합적인 이해를 바탕으로 ASD 아동의 섭식장애 해결을 위한 적절한 평가 및 중재를 제공해야 할 것이다.

Objectives : Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and Asperger's disorder (AD) in children are associated with attentional problems, impulsivity, hyperactivity, and difficulties with social interactions. Pharmacological treatment may alleviate symptoms of ADHD, but seldom solves difficulties with social interactions. Social skills training (SST) may assist in improving their social interactions. We examined the effects of SST on children's social competences, general behavior, and ADHD symptoms. Methods : Thirty four children, aged 7 to 12 years, participated in the cognitive behavioral SST program once a week at the outpatient division of child-adolescent psychiatry. SST was composed of 24 sessions (ninety minutes) for 6 months. Twenty-five children were diagnosed with ADHD, and 9 children were diagnosed with AD. Parents of the children rated Korea-Child Behavior Checklist (K-CBCL), Conner's rating scales, Korean-ADHD Rating Scale (K-ARS), Social Skill Rating System (SSRS), and Matson's Social Skill Rating Scale as an evaluation of the treatment effect, before the first session and after the final session of the training. Results : The ADHD group showed significantly increased scores of social and social competence of CBCL and SSRS. Further, scores of externalizing problems of CBCL, CRS, and ARS were significantly decreased. The Asperger's group showed significantly increased scores of social competence of CBCL, SSRS, and MESS. There was a significant difference of the improvement in CBCL's school and total behavior problem score, CRS between drug change group and no drug change group. Conclusion : The result of this study suggests that SST is effective in improving social skills for children with ADHD and AD. In addition, SST has shown its effectiveness in treating attentional problems for children with ADHD. To prove objective usefulness of SST, further studies with a more structured design and long-term duration along with a sufficient number of AD participants will be necessary.

This review article explores the psychological characteristics, comorbid mental disorders, and psychosocial assessments throughout the solid organ transplant journey, spanning the pre-transplant, peri-transplant, and post-transplant phases for transplant recipients. The psychological burden and anxiety in the pre-transplant phase are high for organ failure patients with complex physical difficulties who are deciding to undergo transplantation and are on the waiting list. The pre-transplant psychosocial evaluation covers various aspects, including the patient's readiness, awareness of, and commitment to transplant treatment, medical compliance, psychopathological conditions such as cognitive function and personality disorders, lifestyle factors, including substance abuse, as well as various psychosocial factors like social support. During the peri-transplant phase, mental health problems such as postoperative delirium should be carefully recognized and addressed. After transplantation, it is essential to assist patients in coping with the various stressful experiences they encounter, manage psychiatric symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and insomnia, and improve treatment adherence and quality of life during long-term care for the transplanted organ. Managing psychiatric problems in post-transplant patients requires a deep understanding of immunosuppressant medications and a keen awareness of associated risks, including adverse effects and potential drug interactions. This comprehensive review emphasizes the significance of proactive mental health care and psychosocial evaluation, highlighting the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach to enhance the quality of life and overall success of transplant patients throughout all phases of transplantation.
