The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of a multiple voice therapy technique ($SKMVTT^{(R)}$) using laughter for the treatment of various benign vocal fold lesions. To achieve this, 23 female patients diagnosed with vocal nodules, vocal polyp, and muscle tension dysphonia through videostroboscopy were enrolled in vocal hygiene and $SKMVTT^{(R)}$. All of the patients were treated once a week for 4 to 12 sessions. The GRBAS scale was used to confirm the changes in voice quality before and after the treatment. Acoustic analysis was performed to evaluate jitter, shimmer, NHR, fundamental frequency variation, amplitude variation, PFR, and dB range. Videostroboscopy was performed to confirm the changes in the laryngeal features before and after the treatment. After the $SKMVTT^{(R)}$, the results of the perceptual evaluation demonstrated that the G, R, and B scales significantly improved. An acoustic evaluation also demonstrated that jitter, shimmer, NHR, vAm, vFo, PFR, and dB range also significantly improved after the $SKMVTT^{(R)}$. In comparison to the videostroboscopic findings, the size of the vocal nodules and vocal polyp decreased or disappeared after the treatment. In addition, the size of the cuneiform tubercles decreased, the length of the aryepiglottic folds became longer, and the laryngeal findings of the supraglottic compressions improved after the $SKMVTT^{(R)}$. These results suggest that the $SKMVTT^{(R)}$ is effective in improving the vocal quality of patients with benign vocal fold lesions. In conclusion, it seems that laughter and inspiratory phonation suppressed abnormal laryngeal elevation and lowered laryngeal height, which seems to have the effect of improving hyperfunctional phonation.

The This study aimed to evaluate the effects of the voice therapy we operated to the patients with age-related dysphonia. Thirty four participants who were diagnosed as age-related dysphonia in laryngoscopic finding from January, 2009 to December, 2009 completed the study. The participants were aged from 60 to 82 years old with a mean age of 70.6. All participants had received the abdominal breath technique, SKHPIP with laughter, and basic vocal training with description of their problem, the length of which ranged from four sessions to twelve sessions. We executed the videostroboscopy to compare the aspect of voicing change and the perceptual assessment, voice range profile, acoustic and aerodynamic measures to identify change of voice. Participants had glottal gap due to incomplete glottic closure during voicing on the pretest. After they took the voice therapy, the glottic gap became narrow and rough and breathy voice was reduced. There were significant difference in acoustic and aerodynamic measures. Jitter, Shimmer, MFR were reduced and MPT, Psub were increased(p<.05). Participants' pitch range and intensity range were increased on the posttest performance after taking voice therapy. Especially, most of them were showed that pitch range was increased significantly in high frequency area. The results of this investigation indicate that the voice therapy using abdominal breath, SKHPIP, and exercise together is effective for the patients who have age-related dysphonia to improve their voice quality. We recommend to apply this technique to functional voice disorders who are showed glottal gap.

Pathological laughing and crying (PLC) is a condition defined by relatively uncontrollable episodes of laughter, crying or both. PLC is an uncommon symptom usually caused by cerebral lesions. Midbrain involvement causing PLC is extremely unusual and the exact mechanism by which this condition develops is poorly understood. We recently experienced a 51-year-old woman who were diagnosed as PLC after midbrain infarction. She was treated by acupuncture, pulsed electromagnetic therapy (PEMT). After 6 weeks treatment, Pathological Laughter and Crying Scale (PLACS), Korean version of the Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (K-SARA) are decreased and Korean version of Modified Barthel Index (K-MBI) is increased. Treatment of traditional Korean Medicine could be effective for stoke rehabilitation including post-stroke PLC. And we have considered mechanism of PLC associated with midbrain lesion, dysfunction of cortex-thalamus-hypothalamus-basal ganglia-mesencephalon and faciorespiratory nuclei pathways, cerebro-ponto-cerebellar pathways and damaged serotonergic neurotransmission can cause this based on recent neurobiology of emotion. To define exact mechanism and find effective treatment, further studies are needed.

In Korea, since the mid 1990s, the subtitles are largely employed on television programs especially on diverting programs like talk shows and game shows. The functions of these subtitles are different from those of the traditional subtitles. The traditional subtitles are used to give credits, explain an action, or represent dialogue, to be brief they are used to give informations. But the new type of subtitles are used to amuse the public. Not only the new subtitles represent words of the guests but also they present opinions or judgements of the program producer. They show also what to give attention to, what the guest feels and finally what to laugh at. These subtitles are very well received by the public. So they are employed more and more frequently by lots of programs. These subtitles will be ratted comic subtitles because their principal function Is to raise a laughter and to make fun. The purpose of this study is to attempt to find some particularities concerning the uses of the comic subtitles on Korean television. The study suggests that the comic subtitles call for the very known social codes because they should be understood clearly by the public. The forms and styles of the codes employed in the comic subtitles are very similar to those used in the comics. Some graphic codes especially developed in the comics are employed with success in the comic subtitles. The comic subtitles are aiming to amuse and provoke a laughter by written text and visual codes usually employed in the comics. But why does the program producer use the comic titles for make the public laugh? Laugh is not a emotional reaction but a act caused by the intellectual judgement. Written text and visual codes employed in the comic subtitles permit to judge the situation intellectually because they give to the public a moment for think about what they treat. They permit the public to see more clearly the situational relations which can provoke a laughter. The comic subtitles constitute now one of the main elements on Korean television. It means that the insertion of writing in the audiovisual media is popular in Korea. The study suggests that there is something in Korean culture which can favours this insertion : in Korea, writing has never been separated from painting. It seems that in Korea, there has been no clear separation between written culture and visual culture. But this point must be approached more carefully and needs profound researches.

본 논문에서는 스마트폰에서 웃음 치료를 위한 표정인식 애플리케이션을 제안한다. 제안된 방법에서는 스마트폰의 전면 카메라 영상으로부터 AdaBoost 얼굴 검출 알고리즘을 이용하여 얼굴을 검출한다. 얼굴을 검출한 다음에는 얼굴 영상으로부터 입술 영역을 검출한다. 그 다음 프레임부터는 얼굴을 검출하지 않고 이전 프레임에서 검출된 입술영역을 3단계 블록 매칭 기법을 이용하여 추적한다. 카메라와 얼굴 사이의 거리에 따라 입술 영역의 크기가 달라지므로, 입술 영역을 구한 다음에는 고정된 크기로 정규화한다. 그리고 주변 조명 상태에 따라 영상이 달라지므로, 본 논문에서는 히스토그램 매칭과 좌우대칭을 결합하는 조명 정규화 알고리즘을 이용하여 조명 보정 전처리를 함으로써 조명에 의한 영향을 줄일 수 있도록 하였다. 그 다음에는 검출된 입술 영상에 주성분 분석을 적용하여 특징 벡터를 추출하고 다층퍼셉트론 인공신경망을 이용하여 실시간으로 웃음 표정을 인식한다. 스마트폰을 이용하여 실험한 결과, 제안된 방법은 초당 16.7프레임을 처리할 수 있어서 실시간으로 동작 가능하였고 인식률 실험에서도 기존의 조명 정규화 방법보다 개선된 성능을 보였다.

근대화 이후 부정적으로 낙인이 찍힌 바보와 어리석음이 똑똑함과 진지함보다 더 심오하고 대안적일 수 있다는 지적은 이미 많이 알려진 사실이다. 코미디나 개그에서 바보 캐릭터는 세계 여러 문화에서 웃음을 낳는 기본 도구로 이용되어 왔다. 이 글에서는 그동안 우리를 스쳐갔던 바보 캐릭터의 유형을 정리하여 그것이 웃음문화에서 어떤 방식으로 유형화될 수 있는지를 정리하고 연행예술로서의 특징도 밝히고자 한다. 바보들의 우스운 행동과 말이 일반적인 이분법인 지혜와 어리석음의 밖에 있다는 것은 매우 중요한 사실이다. 바보들이 드러내는 인식과 행동은 경험세계에서 진리라고 여기는 가치들을 뒤집으며, 일반적인 지식을 뛰어넘는 재치와 조롱을 담고 있기 때문이다. 또한 TV쇼에 등장한 수많은 바보들이 다 같은 바보가 아니었다는 점도 지적할 필요가 있다. 바보도 바보 나름인 것이다. 바보 역시 시대에 따라 다양한 모습을 드러내리라 예상하는 것은 어렵지 않다. 연행예술에서 바보는 등장인물과 관객 사이의 상호작용을 통해 그 성격이 드러난다. 등장인물 스스로가 자신을 바보라고 인정하는 경우와 바보로 여기지 않는 경우가 있고, 관객들이 등장인물을 바보로 여기거나 바보로 생각하지 않을 수 있는 것이다. 이런 상황을 토대로 연행예술에 나타나는 바보 캐릭터를 4가지로 유형화하여 각각의 특징들에 대해 논의하였다.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the meanings of signs represented in contemporary fashion based on the Peirce's trisection theory in order to present various types of sign representation that satisfies aesthetic value and characteristics of the age of information and image. Types of signs represented in contemporary fashion can be summarized into letters, numbers, codes, pictures, logos, characters and emblems. The meanings of signs were analyzed based on the Peirce's trisection theory, resulting in representation of play, brandsymbol, eroticism and suggestion. The play was categorized into infantile and parodic. The former inspires unexpected interest and laughter from contemporary people in the age of disorder through humorous characters, cartoons and illustrations. The latter inspires laughter by parodying things and it's intention is to release the isolation of people and their relative poverty through pictures for which techniques of parody and surrealism were used. Most of the brandsymbols represented by logos, used for textile and clothing design as well as accessories are optimal signs that construct brand images. Eroticism means emotion, impulses, senses of value and sexual attraction. A desire to represent sexual attraction is an expression of eroticism and self-expression to adjust in a changing society. Suggestion tends to pursue the image of harmony with nature in a world which is pressed by material civilization. Humans represent illuminating messages through direct slogans by characters, natural objects and motives of social phenomenon in pursuit of the benefits of abundant material civilization in the structure of a highly advanced scientific civilization and industrial society.

This study was a phenomenological approach to the substance and meaning of large-group discussion activities in the kindergarten. Results of this study showed phenomena of the management of large-group discussion to be : 1) interchange in the natural fields of knowledge, 2) the fields of shared laughter and humor, 3) the exchange of glances individually between a teacher and children as well as children to children, 4) a bridge to connect one activity to another, 5) the guarantee of freedom in the limited space while keeping order, 6) the making of a way to connect individual children's inner self with the world, 7) conflicts between standardized themes and generated themes.

In this study of 79 3- and 4-year-old children, behavioral inhibition was assessed by their preschool teachers; mother-child attachment was assessed by the researchers in home visits; and mothers reported on their parenting and their child's emotionality at 6-12 months of age. Findings were that insecure attachment was related to high child's distress reactions to limitations (negative emotionality) in early infancy and to strong maternal rejection/hostility. Higher maternal sensitivity to child's inhibition was related to more secure attachment. Girls were more highly inhibited than boys. Smiling and laughter (positive emotionality) in early infancy was negatively related to child's inhibited behavior. Maternal sensitivity to child inhibition was positively related to child's inhibited behavior. Findings are consistent with Engfer's (1993) theory of gender differences in developmental paths into behavioral inhibition.
