Objective : Using patterns of change in heart rate variability (HRV), we investigated the effects of stress exposure and type of anger expression on cardiovascular diseases. Methods : Eighty-nine medical students were evaluated by STAXI-K, BDI, BAI, and measured HRV. According to the scores of anger expression questions in STAXI-K, objects are comparted to three groups. Each group is compared with others on the levels of depression, anxiety and HRV. Additionally objects are divided into two groups of functional anger expression group and dysfunctional anger expression group, and each group also divided into two groups, depending on the exposure of stressful situation or not. Members who took part in the stress exposure groups, they've got a serial arithmetic process for five minutes. We surveyed patterns of HRV in 4 each groups and estimated interactions between existence of stressful situation or type of anger expression and HRV. Results : Irrespective of stress manipulation, the dysfunctional anger expression group showed a marked increase in the LF/HF ratio in comparison to the functional anger expression group. Also, under conditions of stress manipulation, the stress exposure group exhibited a relatively increased level of TP. It can't be discriminated any correlations between stress manipulation and type of anger expression. Conclusion : Both of them, exposure to the stressful situation and type of anger expression, have influence on cardiovascular diseases. By controlling anger and way of express that, it is possible to diminish the incidence of cardiovascular diseases.

본 연구는 초등학생의 학업스트레스를 감소시키고 학업스트레스에 보다 효율적으로 대처할 수 있는 능력을 키우기 위한 인지행동적 학업스트레스 대처 프로그램을 개발하여 그 효과를 알아보는데 목적이 있다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 경상남도 소재 Y초등학교 24명의 아동을 각각 훈련집단과 통제집단에 12명씩 임의 배정하여, 매회 40분씩 주 2회, 6주간에 걸쳐 총 12회기로 구성된 프로그램을 실시하였으며 프로그램 실시 전후와 종료 4주 후에 학업스트레스 질문지와 학업스트레스 대처방식 질문지를 실시하여 프로그램의 효과를 평가하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 프로그램은 먼저 학업스트레스 유발상황 조사지를 제작하여 초등학생들이 흔히 경험하는 학업과 관련된 스트레스상황을 조사하고, 그러한 상황에서 아동들이 경험하는 스트레스를 인식하도록 도와주어 학업스트레스 유발상황에서 나타나는 인지적 왜곡을 수정하여 학업스트레스에 적절하게 대처하는 방법에 초점을 두고 구성하였다. 또한 국가 청소년 위원회에서 위기청소년을 위해 개발한 인지행동 집단상담 프로그램과 학업스트레스를 조절하는데 사용된 기존의 프로그램들을 초등학생에게 적용 가능한 형태로 수정하였다. 본 연구의 결과 인지행동적 학업스트레스 대처훈련은 첫째, 아동들이 학업스트레스 유발상황에서 경험하는 성적, 수업과 공부 및 과제관련 스트레스를 감소시키고 그 효과를 지속시키는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 학업스트레스에 대한 대처방식을 유의미하게 변화시키는 것으로 나타났다. 대처방식 중 소극적-회피적 대처와 도움추구적 대처는 유의미하게 변화시키는 것으로 나타났으나 적극적 대처에 미치는 효과는 다소 제한적인 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose : This study is to understand the reactive oxygen which is expected to be a causative factor of aging condition including dementia, atherosclerosis, even cancer. Methods : The reactive oxygen is generated usually when people do very hard exercise or is under severe stressful situation or in unhealthy environment and as a protective reaction to reactive oxygen, human body releases antioxidant enzyme systems like superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathion-S-transferase (GST) and non-enzymetic antioxidant systems like glutathione, ascorbate, $\beta$-carotene, vitimin E. Results : Nowadays, we are getting more interested in the generation of reactive oxygen especially in the area of physical education, food and nutrition, alternative medicine etc. Conclusion : The study of reactive oxygen in patients with musculoskeletal disease is also required and among various physical therapeutic approaches, the method of general coordinative manipulation is considered more necessary.
