  • Animated Character는 컴퓨터와 인간 간의 상호작용을 증진시킬 수 있는 방편으로 널리 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Animated Character의 감시가 과제 난이도에 따른 수행과 정서에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 본 실험에서 실험 참가자들은 통제 집단과 감시 Animated Character 조건에 무선으로 배정되어 난이도 세 수준의 글자계산 과제를 수행하였다. 또한 정서에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 상태 특성 자기평가 불안척도(State-Trait Anxiety Inventory; STAI)를 사용하였다. 실험참가자들의 수행은 과제의 정답률과 반응시간을 측정을 통해 평가되었다. 실험결과 감시 Animated Character 조건은 통제 조건 보다 유의미하게 높은 불안(Anxiety)의 증가가 있었다. 또한 감시 Animated Character 조건은 높은 난이도의 글자 계산 과제에서 통제 조건 보다 유의미하게 높은 수행을 보였다. 본 연구는 Animated Character의 감시가 과제 난이도에 따라 다른 영향을 가진다는 것을 밝힘으로써 향후 감시 시스템 등에 Animated Character를 적용함에 있어 구체적인 가이드라인을 제공한다.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify the infuence of adolescent-perceived family adaptability on adolescent adjustment. The 443 subjects were selected randomly from the second grade of middle and high schools in the city of Taegu. The instruments of measurement were FACESIII, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Depression Scale, and Self-Esteem Scale. Factor analysis, Cronbach's α, MANOVA, and Scheff'e test were conducted for the data analysis. The major findings of this study were as follows: There differences in adolescents' adjustment by their perception of family adaptability levels. Namely, adolescents who perceived family adaptability to be low level- i.e. rigid family- felt anxiety and depression more, and adolescents who perceived family adaptability to be higher lever- i.e very flexible family-had higher self-esteem than other levels of adaptability.

  • The purpose of this study was to identify the relative influence of OCM and BSM's family functioning dimensions and develop a new family system model related to adolescent adjustment. The 443 subjects were selected randomly from the second grade of middle and high schools in the city of Taegu. The survey instruments were FACESⅢ, SFI-Ⅱ, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Depression Scale, Self-Esteem Scale, and Delinquency Scale, Factor Analysis, Cronbach's α, Multiple Regression, MANOVA, Scheffe test were conducted for the data analysis. The major findings of this study were as follows: First, OCM's and BSM's family functioning dimensions respectively had different relative influence that affected adolescent adjustment level. In anxiety and depression. BSM's family health/competence dimension had superior influence to any other family functioning dimensions and in self-esteem and delinquency, OCM's cohesion dimension was superior to any other family functions. Second, family system classification method by a new family system model using family cohesion(OCM's relationship dimension) and family health/competence(BSM's change dimension) was more useful than OCM in evaluating adolescent adjustment.

  • Objective : This study aimed to investigate the associations of anxiety symptoms with behavior and attention in elementary school children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Methods : A total of 195 elementary school children with ADHD participated in the study. The Korean Version of ADHD Rating Scale (K-ARS) and Behavior Assessment System for Children(BASC-2) were used to measure the children's behavior. Anxiety and attention was assessed with State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children (STAIC) and ADHD Diagnostic System (ADS), respectively. Children with ADHD were categorized to two groups of ADHD with low anxiety (ADHD-LA) and ADHD with high anxiety (ADHD-HA) according to the total STAIC scores. Scores on K-ARS, BASC-2 and ADS were compared between two groups of ADHD-LA and ADHD-HA. Results : The Scores on K-ARS total and both subscales in ADHD-HA group were significantly higher than ADHD-LA group. Scores on the BASC-2 subscales including hyperactivity, aggression, conduct problem, anxiety, depression, somatization, withdrawal, attention problems were also significantly higher in ADHD-HA group compared to ADHD-LA group. In contrary, scores on ADS subscales were not significantly different between the both groups. Conclusion : Our study identified that the anxiety accompanied with ADHD was associated with the negative behavioral aspect in children with ADHD. However, the performances on attention task were not affected by the anxiety comorbid with ADHD. Future studies to reveal underlying mechanism are needed for further understanding the association with anxiety and ADHD.

  • This study was peformed to examine the effect of muscle relaxation training on patients with insomnia complaint. The subjects were selected those who have taken poor sleep below 240-300 minutes. per day, between 16-15ages, without organic brain syndroms. Using the Budzinski's muscle relaxation training tapes the patients have been gotten the muscle relaxation training daily during four weeks and examined the state anxiety with Spielberger's Trait-State Anxiety Scale, and investigated Sleep amounts, Blood pressure, Pulse rates, Respiratory rates before and after the muscle relaxation training. The results were as follow : 1. The mean of the State anxiety after the muscle relaxation training(41.8$\pm$6.4) was significantly lower than that of before training (54.2$\pm$7.0) (p<0.001). 2. The mean of systolic blood pressure after the training (114.$\pm$7.8mmHg) was significantly lower than that of before training (139.0$\pm$9.8) (P<0.001). 3. The mean of Pulse rate after the traing (89.2$\pm$3.0) was significantly lower than that of before training (103.9$\pm$7.4) (P<0.001). 4. The mean of Respiratory rate after the training(18.6$\pm$1.0) was significantly lower than that of before training(22.8$\pm$1.3) (P<0.001). 5. The mean of Sleep amount after the muscle relaxation training (459.8$\pm$52.4 minutes) was significantly increased than that of before training (287.3$\pm$30.3) (P<0.001).

  • Objective : The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between subjective sleep problems and various types of traumatic events of patients with depressive disorder. Methods : A total of 411 patients diagnosed with depressive disorders were recruited in this study. The participants filled out Life Time Events Checklist (LEC), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). We used the independent t-test and analysis of covariance to compare each component of PSQI between depressive patients with and without traumatic experiences. Results : The groups of patients who experienced a serious accident at work, home or during recreational activity, sexual assault, other unwanted or uncomfortable sexual experience, life-threatening illness or injury, and sudden, unexpected death of a near and dear one showed lower scores in a few components of PSQI. Sleep disturbance was a common problem in all five groups. Lower subjective sleep quality and longer sleep latency was observed in three groups. There were no differences in the other components of PSQI among groups. Conclusion : This study showed that various types of traumatic events may have different effects on subjective sleep quality as a consequence of the traumatic event which they had experienced.
