The purpose of this study was to investigate the work stress measured by PSI (psychiatric symptom index) according to socio-demographic variables. The study population was consisted with two types of group; manual and clerical workers. The major findings of this study were as follows; Mean scores of psychiatric symptom in manual workers were higher in female, youth, educated, unmarried and divorced, noisy condition, that in clerical workers was higher in aged. Mean scores of psychiatric symptom were highly affected by degree of work autonomy, self-esteem, and self-efficacy in both groups. The higher the work autonomy, self-esteem, and self-efficacy, the lower the mean scores of work stress it showed.

Purpose: This study was performed to investigate the quantities of three neo-maternal exposures; visiting frequency, auditory contact and physical contact, and to examine the relationship between the quantities of each exposure and maternal attachment, maternal self-esteem and postpartum depression in 40 mothers of NICU babies during the first week in the NICU. Method: Each neo-maternal exposure was counted at every mother's visit to the newborn and maternal attachment, maternal self-esteem and postpartum depression were measured using the maternal attachment inventory, the maternal self-report inventory and Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) on the first and seventh day in the NICU. Result: The Mean of each neo-maternal exposure was 8.77(2.81) for the visiting frequency, 5.82(3.66) for the auditory contact and 5.60(2.89) for the physical contact during 7 days in the NICU. No significant changes were found in the scores of maternal attachment, maternal self-esteem and postpartum depression between the first and the seventh day in the NICU. The quantities of neo-maternal exposures were positively related to the scores of maternal attachment and maternal self-esteem but not related to postpartum depression. Conclusion: The results of the study suggest the lack of early neo-maternal exposure in cases of NICU hospitalization negate its beneficial effects on maternal psychological well-being in increasing maternal attachment and self-esteem. More efforts are neededfor the neo-maternal interaction and the reevaluation of NICU visitation hours in order to promote maternal-infant interaction.

본 연구는 숲이라는 자연환경이 인터넷 중독 청소년의 인터넷 중독과 자존감에 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 알아본 것이다. 본 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 동일한 집단상담 프로그램을 숲과 교실이라는 환경에서 각각 실시하여 그 차이를 비교하였다. S시의 중학생 24명을 실험집단, 비교집단, 통제집단 등으로 각각 8명씩 무선 할당하여 총 6회기의 프로그램을 실시하고 사후 및 추후에 집단 간에 차이가 있는지를 알아보았다. 종속변수는 인터넷 중독 점수와 자존감 점수로 하였다. 연구결과, 숲에서 프로그램을 실시한 실험집단이 통제집단에 비하여 사후 및 추후 시기에서 인터넷 중독점수에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 시기별로 보면, 실험집단은 사전에 비하여 사후 및 추후에 인터넷 중독 점수에서 유의한 차이가 있었다. 비교집단은 통제집단에 비하여 사후 및 추후시기에 집단 간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 숲 환경에서 실시한 프로그램은 비교집단과 통제집단에 비하여 사후 및 추후시기에 자존감의 점수에서 집단 간 유의한 차이를 보였으며 실험집단은 비교집단 및 통제집단에 비하여 자존감의 점수가 유의하게 상승되었다, 비교집단 또한 통제집단에 비하여 자존감이 유의하게 상승된 것으로 나타났다. 또한 실험집단은 사전에 비하여 사후 및 추후에 자존감 점수가 유의하게 상승된 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 숲이라는 자연환경이 인터넷 중독 청소년의 중독 증상을 감소시키고 자존감을 향상하는 등의 치료적 기제를 가지고 있음을 시사한다. 앞으로의 연구에서는 다양한 중독자에 대한 치료적 방법의 하나로서 숲 환경이 어떤 영향을 미치는 지를 검증해볼 필요가 있다. 끝으로 본 연구의 제한점과 시사점을 기술하였다.

'Self-esteem' is defined as 'the lived status of one's individual competence and personal worthiness in dealing with the challenges of Life over Time'. High self-esteem is associated with self-confidence, effectively coping, well-being, and responsibility and it is essential for the responsible choice and determination of environments. The purposes of this study were to develop a strategy to enhance the self-esteem and to verify the effects. A new strategy, 'Cognitive Restructuring Strategy' was based on the characteristics of self-esteem and the key idea of this was to eliminate negative thoughts and to reinforce affirmative thoughts. We developed the statement to embody this strategy and applied to the experimental group. According to the results, self-esteem for the control group(155) did not changed but that for the experimental group(158) was significantly enhanced. Continuously, environmental learning instructions of 3 units were carried out on two groups. By applying the t-test, achievement-test scores for the experimental group per unit were significantly higher than those of the control group as regards the four respective goals of EE. Therefore this strategy and statement are helpful in enhancing self-esteem and it was found that 'self-esteem' is a influential factor to form environmental responsible behaviors(ERB).
