Objectives: This study was conducted to re-validate the clinical efficacy of the Korean Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Rating Scale (K-AARS), which is a self-report scale for ADHD in adults, and to determine the clinical utility and cut-off scores of K-AARS. Methods: The participants were 135 drug naïve adults with ADHD and 144 healthy controls. To diagnose ADHD based on the diagnostic criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition, two board-certified pediatric psychiatrists interviewed the participants and completed the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview. K-AARS was applied to all participants. K-AARS comprises six clinical subscales, one impairment subscale, and one driving behavior subscale. The receiver operating characteristic analysis was conducted to calculate the cut-off scores of K-AARS. Results: All subscale scores, including six clinical subscale, impairment subscale, and driving behavior subscale scores, were found to be significant in distinguishing adults with ADHD from healthy controls. The sensitivity and specificity of the six clinical subscales were 63.0-77.0% and 66.7-79.9%, respectively. The combined total score of the six clinical subscales, had a sensitivity of 80.0% and specificity of 79.9%. Conclusion: The discriminative power of K-AARS for the diagnosis of ADHD in adults was excellent, and K-AARS and the empirical diagnosis of adults can be useful in diagnosing ADHD in adulthood.

본 연구는 최초 노숙진입 시기 차이에 따른 남성 청년 노숙인 두 그룹의 노숙경로를 밝혀 구체적인 노숙의 원인을 추적하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 기존의 노숙 원인에 대한 논의는 구조냐 개인이냐의 이분법적 원인론에 머물러 있거나 노숙에 영향을 미친 복잡한 원인을 다루지만 결국 이를 단순화시켜 설명하는 경향이 있었다. 본 연구는 각 청년노숙인 사례의 노숙 위험요인을 도출하고, 사례의 생애 경험의 맥락 속에서 노숙에 영향을 미친 핵심위험요인의 연대기적 배열을 통해 좀 더 세밀하게 위험요인간의 인과성을 추적하여 노숙진입의 경로를 살펴보았다. 그 결과 청년기에 노숙에 진입한 그룹(A1)과 10대 때부터 노숙을 경험한 바 있는 그룹(A2)은 노숙의 진입 경로가 상이함을 확인하였다. 양쪽 모두 청년기에 극한의 상태인 노숙을 경험하고 있다는 공통점이 있지만, 전자의 경우는 가족, 사회로부터 입은 외상으로 인해 정신적인 고통에 시달리고 이로부터 이탈해 고립을 경험하다 노숙에 이르게 된 경우로 대표된다면 후자의 그룹은 이미 청소년기부터 위기청소년의 상황이 시작되었고, 학교, 가정에서의 불안정성이 매우 높았던 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 청소년기의 노숙 경험이 청년기로 곧장 이어지는 경우는 많지 않았지만 비노숙 기간이 잠시였을 뿐 청년기에 노숙으로 재진입하고 있었다. 이러한 결론을 통해 성인기의 삶의 토대를 다져야 하는 청년기에 극단의 상황에 처한 청년들의 위험요인과 진입경로에 따른 차별화된 개입, 사례관리, 상담에 대한 정책적 접근이 필요하다는 것을 제언하였다.

목 적 : 소아청소년기 GHD 환자들은 성인기에 진단된 환자보다 체성분과 심혈관계의 변화가 심한 것으로 알려져 있어 성인기에도 GHD가 지속되면 성장호르몬 치료를 꼭 받아야 한다. 본 연구에서는 소아청소년기에 GHD로 진단 받은 성인 환자들을 대상으로 ITT를 시행하여 성인기에도 GHD가 지속되는 요인을 살펴보고, 성인기에도 GHD가 지속될 가능성이 높은 대상을 알아보고자 한다. 방 법 : 성인키에 도달한 55명(남 39명, 여 16명)을 대상으로 ITT의 최대 성장호르몬 값이 $3{\mu}g/L$ 미만이면 성인기 GHD로 진단하였다. 특발성 GHD 환자(n=12)는 뇌하수체 구조적인 이상이 있는 2명과 둔위 분만 또는 가사의 병력이 있는 10명이었으며, 기질성 GHD 환자(n=43)는 시상하부-뇌하수체를 침범하는 뇌종양(n=33), 그 외의 뇌종양(n=3), 뇌수막염(n=3), 백혈병(n= 2), 지주막낭종(n=1), 뇌하수체염(n=1)에 해당하였다. 결 과 : 성인기에도 GHD가 지속된 환자는 49명(89.1%)이었다. 최대 성장호르몬 값의 log값은 기저 IGF-I 농도와 양의 상관관계를 보였다(r=0.57, P<0.001). 특발성 GHD 환자의 91.7%가 성인기에도 GHD가 지속되어, 성인기 GHD 여부는 소아청소년기 특발성, 기질성 GHD 여부에 따른 차이가 없었다. 동반된 뇌하수체호르몬 결핍 개수가 많을수록(단독 GHD 40%, 1개의 결핍 동반 80%, 2개 이상 동반 95.6%, P=0.002), 기질성 GHD 환자 중에서 병변이 시상하부-뇌하수체를 일차적으로 침범하는 경우(P=0.003)에 성인기에도 GHD가 지속될 가능성이 높았다. 두개 내 방사선 치료를 받은 18명 중에서 15명이 성인기에도 GHD가 지속되었는데, 시상하부-뇌하수체를 침범하는 종양으로 방사선 치료를 받은 환자들 14명은 모두 방사선조사량에 관계없이 성인기에도 GHD가 지속되었다. 동반된 뇌하수체호르몬 결핍이 있는 경우(P=0.005), 소아청소년기 완전 GHD인 경우(P=0.005)에 성인기에도 GHD가 지속되는 비율이 높았다. 결 론 : 소아청소년기에 GHD로 진단 받은 환자들 중에서 동반 뇌하수체호르몬 결핍이 2개 이상이거나, 기저 질환의 병변이 시상하부-뇌하수체를 포함하면 성인기에도 GHD가 지속될 가능성이 높다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study identified the perceived quality of parent-child relationships and attitudes toward filial duty contracts among young adult children. Also, this study is to examine the effects of sociodemographic characteristics and perceived quality parent-child relationships on the attitudes toward filial duty contracts and the requirement for filial duty contract details. Method: For this study, a survey was conducted with 210 college student children in young adulthood in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do. The questionnaire consisted of the 'Attitudes toward Filial Duty Contracts Scale', the 'Requirement for Filial Duty Contract Details Scale', and the 'Quality of Parent-Child Relationships Scale' with a demographic questionnaire. Specifically, the Attitudes toward Filial Duty Contracts Scale consisted of the support for contract, the intention of contract, and reservation contract amount on young adult children's mind. Data were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis. Results: The major findings of this study are as follows: First, young adult children reported the relationship with mother better than father's and mid levels of support and intention of filial duty contract. They also showed that their reservation contract amount on their mind was about 500 million won. Second, the multiple regression analyses revealed that gender and pride of one's father positively related to their support for filial contract. Also, gender, the pride of one's father, and emotional closeness to one's father significantly affected their intention of filial contract. In addition, among the variables, only monthly family income significantly predicted their reservation contract amount. Finally, the multiple regression analyses revealed that birth order and gender significantly predicted the normative duty contract. Also, the pride of one's father significantly affected the emotional support contract. However, filial duty contract details such as caregiving for sick parents, physical support, and economic support have been found to be meaningless. Conclusions: The findings suggest that preparative education of aging for parents who are considering making the filial duty contracts with their children should include some realistic advice. These pieces of advice include their parent-child relationship and consideration of their own overall asset sizes.

This study aims to identify the propensity to consume and housing characteristics according to life cycle as the main independent variable. It also tries to understand the consumption power and housing style of each cycle and analyze whether there are differences between each life cycle, ultimately aiming to match the propensity to consume and housing style with each cycle. For empirical analysis, on and off-line surveys of 488 people were collected and analyzed by cross analysis, factor analysis and analysis of variance. The prime research findings are as follows: First of all, factor analysis on propensity to consume showed four main sub-factors as rational consumption, conspicuous consumption, trend consumption, and status consumption. Secondly, current and preferred housing styles ranked from modern, natural, casual, classic and romantic, which proved that people are currently housed in preferred housing styles. Thirdly, in case of housing-related characteristics of life cycles, the size of the house increased as the levels progressed, and then decreased at level 6 when the children grew into adulthood. The majority of the population was paying a monthly rent, a few were leasing, and a very few owned their housing. 58% were living in apartments, but in levels 1-2, more were living in row houses and high-rise residential buildings, while in level 6 it was detached houses. Fourthly, the propensity to consume according to life cycle tended to shift from conspicuous and trend-based consumption to rational consumption as the cycles progressed. Fifthly, the preferred housing styles were modern and natural styles, regardless of life cycle. These study results can be applied to product development and marketing activities based on their accurate analysis of customers' needs, which can thus bring further customer satisfaction.

Background: Down's syndrome, or trisomy 21, is the commonest congenital chromosome anomaly. With improvement in medical care, these patients increasingly reach adulthood in spite of their physical maldevelopment and mental retardation. And, the number of those who required general anesthesia for dental treatment is increasing. Methods: We reviewed the 26 cases of 22 patients with Down's syndrome who underwent outpatient general anesthesia for dental treatment at the clinic for the disabled in Seoul National University Dental Hospital. Results: The mean age was 22 years. They all had severe mental retardation and some had congenital heart anomaly, epilepsy, hypothyroidism, acute leukemia, autism, cleft palate, and chronic renal failure. For anesthesia induction, 4 cases was needed physical restriction, but others showed good or moderate cooperation. Drugs used for anesthesia induction was thiopental (17 cases) and sevoflurane (9 cases). All patients received nasotracheal intubation and 3 cases needed difficult airway management. Mean total anesthetic time was $166{\pm}60$ min and staying time at PACU was $92{\pm}48$ min. There was no death or long term hospitalization because of severe complications. Conclusion: If general anesthesia is needed, pertinent diagnostic tests and workup about anomaly, and appropriate anesthetic planning are essential for safety.

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neuropsychiatric disorder that begins in early childhood and can persist throughout adulthood. ADHD causes difficulties in various area of life, such as academic achievement, peer relationships, family functioning, employment and marriage. Although ADHD is known to respond well to medication, such treatment is more effective when combined with psychosocial (non-pharmacologic) therapy in terms of alleviating the core symptoms and improving appropriate functions. Psychosocial treatment interventions are divided into psychoeducation, behavioral parent training, school intervention, cognitive behavior therapy, social skill training, parent-child interaction therapy, play therapy, other treatments (coaching, complementary and alternative medicine), neurofeedback and Cogmed. Adult ADHD cognitive behavioral therapy is described separately. These practice parameters summarize the evidence for psychosocial treatment. Based on this evidence, specific recommendations are provided for psychosocial interventions.

Background: Adolescence is the transitional period between childhood and adulthood. We have to pay attention to their psycho-social problems as well as their physical symptoms. In this context, we need to investigate the adolescent depression tendency and its related factors. Method : From May to June in 1008, we chose one elementary school, one middle school and one high school in Seoul and surveyed for all students who were above the 4th grade of elementary school and their parents. We analyzed the data for 3,685 students. Result: From the 6th grade of elementary school to the 1st grade of high school, the girls' DSRS(Depression self-rating scale) score was significantly higher than the boys'. The DSRS score was increased from the 2nd grade of high school for boys and from the 1st grade of high school for girls. The Pearson correlation coefficient between age and DSRS score was 0.16(p<0.01) and that between APGAR and DSRS score was -0.45(p<0.01). The median number of psychosomatic symptoms of the past month was 6, and when students complained for more psychosomatic symptoms, the DSRS scores were higher. Those who drank or smoked ranked significantly higher in DSRS score; and, those who exercised regularly, had leisure activity, and had a faithful person for counselling ranked significantly lower in DSRS score. Conclusion : Adolescents who complained of many psychosomatic symptoms needed to be screened for depression. A primary physician have to intervene about health related behavior such as family function, smoking, exercise and relieving stress.
