Background and objective: Recreation or activities in forest are regarded as therapy. Many forest therapy programs have been developed and assessed in the domestic. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of the forest therapy program on academic and job-seeking stress in college students. Methods: Thirty five subjects were selected as the experimental group and 25 as the control group, and 29 subjects in the experimental group and 11 in the control group participated in the follow-up test to verify the persistence of stress reduction effects. The forest therapy program was carried out once a week for 2 hours each from September 4 to December 4, 2018, adding up to total eight sessions. Results: The experimental group showed statistically significant reduction in both academic stress and job-seeking stress, whereas the control group did not. For the persistence of the forest therapy program, the experimental group did not show a statistically significant difference between the posttest and the follow-up test, and thus the stress reduction effect was maintained. Conclusion: This study proved the reduction of academic and job-seeking stress in forest therapy programs and the persistence of the stress reduction effect of the forest therapy program. The result is consistent with the Stress Recovery Theory (SRT) that shows the stress reduction effect of nature. In addition, it has significance in that it has verified that the program using the forest on campus can reduce stress of most college students.

The SRP program(stress reduction program) is reported has a good effect to patient to escape from anxiety. To reduce several symptoms due to anxiety, we performed some SRP programs to our patient who had suffered anxiety disorder. The measurement tools of patient's improvement we used are Heart Rate Variability and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Through this programs, symptoms and feeling of anxiety were decreased than first time and Autonomic nerve system balance was much improved. this is caused by effort of self-control meditation, mindfullness, breathing instruction and muscle relaxation program.

Purpose: This study applied the Korean Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (K-MBSR) program for mothers of children and adolescents with mental illnesses, and verified its effectiveness on perceived stress and depression based on the Middle-range theory of caregiver stress. Methods: A quasi-experimental, non-equivalent control group pre-post test design was used. The K-MBSR program was reconstructed with experts' advice to adjust subjects' characters. Using a group approach, sessions were conducted once a week for six weeks, and each session took 2.5 hours. Results: The experimental group did not show a significant decrease in perceived stress than the control group. However, the experimental group showed a significant decrease in depression than the control group. Conclusion: The K-MBSR program was effective for depression. Future studies on high-stress groups or with an extended program are necessary to clarify the effects of the K-MBSR program on perceived stress. These results are consistent with the middle-range theory of caregiver stress, the theoretical framework of this study. When caregivers have similar inputs, proper intervention can change the control process. Further, it can be assumed that this change positively affects the output.

본 연구는 어린이 요가프로그램이 초등학생의 학교 스트레스에 미치는 효과를 검증하는 데 있다. 이를 위해 B시 M초등학교 3학년의 6개 반 학생 231명 중 10명을 연구의 대상으로 무선 선발하여 8주간, 45분씩 총 16회기의 어린이 요가프로그램을 방과 후에 실시하였다. 프로그램의 처치효과를 측정하기 위하여 문화 기술적 면접법(ethnographic interview)을 사용하였다. 어린이 요가프로그램의 초기에 참여한 아동들을 대상으로 초기면담을 실시하고 면담내용을 영역분석, 분류분석의 과정을 거쳐 초등학생이 지각하는 학교 스트레스의 영역분류표로 작성하였다. 그리고 요가 참여 후기에 이를 토대로 후기면담을 실시하여 학교 스트레스의 변화 정도를 대조하여 성분분석을 함으로써, 어린이 요가프로그램의 효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 자료분석의 과정에서 누락되거나 보완할 내용이 발견되면 추가하는 순환과정을 거쳤다. 문화기술적 면접법을 사용하여 학교 스트레스의 요인을 찾아내고 변화를 확인한 본 연구의 결과, 어린이 요가프로그램은 초등학생의 학교 스트레스를 감소시키는데 상당히 긍정적인 효과가 나타났다. 이러한 연구의 결과를 하위 영역별로 살펴보면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 초기면담을 통해 초등학생의 학교 스트레스의 영역은 크게 학업 스트레스, 친구관계 스트레스, 교사관계 스트레스, 학교환경 스트레스의 4가지 영역으로 분석되었다. 둘째, 학업 스트레스는 과제, 수업, 시험성적이라는 3가지 하위영역으로 분류되었으며, 이 하위영역은 스트레스 감소의 효과가 작았다. 셋째, 친구관계 스트레스는 괴롭힘, 소외, 역할수행이라는 3가지 하위영역으로 나타났으며 괴롭힘과 소외영역의 스트레스는 감소되었지만 역할수행 스트레스는 상대적으로 효과가 적었다. 넷째, 교사관계 스트레스는 편애, 벌칙, 교수진행이라는 3가지 하위영역으로 분류되었으며 편애와 벌칙에 따른 스트레스는 감소 되었지만 교수진행 스트레스는 상대적으로 효과가 적었다. 다섯째, 학교환경 스트레스는 학교급식, 학교시설이라는 2가지 하위영역으로 구성되어 있었으며, 학교환경 스트레스는 감소되었지만 학교시설 스트레스는 상대적으로 효과가 적게 나타났다. 문화기술적 면접법을 사용한 본 연구의 결과를 통하여 아동의 다양한 스트레스 요인이 밝혀졌으며, 요가 프로그램의 처치 방법에 대한 시사점이 검토되었다.

The purpose of the study were to investigate the effect of the neuro-feedback program which improves brain function and stress reduction effect. The research design is one group pretest-posttest survey. 121 nursing students of a college in the Busan region took part in the study. Training involving the neuro-feedback program was conducted twice a week, 30 minutes per session, for a total of 10 weeks. The collected data was encoded and analyzed using SPSS 12.0 Version. The brain function and stress levels of the subjects were analyzed through the before-and-after results of the training were analyzed using a paired t-test. The results of the study showed that the BQ and SQ were enhanced as a result of the neuro-feedback. In particular, there were significant increases in the SRQ, ATQ, ACQ, and EQ of the BQ. SQ is correlated with the prevalence rate and resistance to disease, meaning not only psychological anxiety, uneasiness and excitement, but also physical anxiety and response to disease. Based on the study, by using the neuro-feedback training as a program for stress reduction, it is expected that nursing students will receive less stress from internal and external factors, and their ability to cope with stress will be enhanced.

본 연구는 규칙적인 신체활동 프로그램이 유아의 기본운동과 일상적인 스트레스에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보기 위하여 유아 40명을 대상으로 실험집단과 통제집단으로 나누어 주2회 10주간 실외 신체활동 프로그램을 실시하였다. 그 결과 신체활동 프로그램이 유아의 기본운동능력에서 통제집단에 비해 실험집단이 향상되었다. 또한 유아의 일상적 스트레스에 있어서도 통제집단에 비해 실험집단이 스트레스 감소에 긍정적인 영향을 주었다. 이러한 결과들을 통해 신체활동 프로그램이 유아들의 기본운동능력 발달과 일상적인 생활에서 오는 스트레스를 감소시키는데 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.

Objective : In this study, the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program was applied to patients presenting with depression and anxiety after surgery from spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and the effects were assessed. Methods : The subjects were patients admitted for cerebral aneurysm rupture and treated by means of surgery from March to December, 2007. More than 6 months had passed after surgery, without any special lesions showing up on computed tomography (CT), and the Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) was 5 points. Among patients with anxiety and depression symptoms, 11 patients completed the program. The MBSR program was conducted once a week, 2.5 hours each, for 8 weeks. The evaluation criteria were : 1) the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI): it measures the type and level of depression, 2) the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory : the anxiety state of normal adults without mental disorder, and 3) Heart Rate Variability (HRV) : the influence of the autonomous nervous system on the sinoarterial node varies continuously in response to the change of the internal/external environment. Results : The BDI value was decreased from 18.5 ${\pm}$ 10.9 to 9.5 ${\pm}$ 7.1 (p = 0.013) : it was statistically significant, and the depression level of patients was lowered. The state anxiety was decreased from 51.3 ${\pm}$ 13.9 to 42.3 ${\pm}$ 15.2; the trait anxiety was reduced from 50.9 ${\pm}$ 12.3 to 41.3 ${\pm}$ 12.8, and a borderline significant difference was shown (p = 0.091, p = 0.056). In other words, after the treatment, although it was not statistically significant, a decreased tendency in anxiety was shown. In the HRV measurement, standard deviation normal to normal (SDNN), square root of the square root of the mean sum of squared differences between adjacent normal to normal intervals (RMSSD), and total power (TP) showed significant increase, Physical Stress Index (PSI) showed a significant reduction, and thus an improvement in the homeostatic control mechanism of the autonomic nervous system was ween. Conclusion : The MBSR program was applied to the patients showing anxiety and depression reaction after SAH treatment, and a reduction in depression symptoms and physiological reactions were observed. The application of the MBSR program may be considered as a new tool in improving the quality of life for patients after surgery.
