Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate attitudes of Korean occupational therapists toward introducing an accreditation system of occupational therapy education programs. Method : The self-administering written questionnaire was employed for this survey research. The questionnaire was developed and reviewed by the Accreditation Board for the Education of Korean Occupational Therapists and was composed of 18 items which included both closed-ended and open-ended questions. The questionnaire was distributed to Korean occu-pational therapists who attended at the 10th annual conference of Korean Association of Occupational Therapists in October 2002.Results : Among 106 respondents, 80.2% expressed their concern about the sudden increase of new occupational therapy education programs and they believed that the curricula of new in-stitutions and the quality of the institutes’ graduates would be different. On the question of ne-cessity of introducing the accreditation system of occupational therapy education programs, 89.7% responded that it was necessary. All respondents agreed that clinical fieldwork experience was necessary and the preferred length was 16, 24, and 12 weeks in order. The areas to be in-cluded in the accreditation were the number of qualified professors, fieldwork hours, and the contents of curricula in order. 77.4% of the sample responded that they would trust the result and process of the accreditation. Conclusion : Based on the result of the survey, it could be inferred that the majority of oc-cupational therapists were concerned about improving quality of the profession rather than its quantitative expansion. Therefore, it is expected that the accreditation system of occupational therapy education programs would ensure the qualitative growth of occupational therapy pro-fession in Korea.

Though it has passed over 50 years since occupational therapy was introduced into Korea, the Korean occupational therapy is still in the beginning stage. This researcher investigated the reality of educating students and the problems in the field of occupational therapy. The quality of manpower is determined by how we can secure specialties in the process of educating students, and it is highly related with the standards of service. Therefore, the efforts to acknowledge the present situation of supply and demand for educating occupational therapy students should be made cautiously. To assure the quality of occupational therapists and make the better circumstances for them and predict the promising future in the field of occupational therapy, the basic regulations and minimum standards for educational institutions and practice institutions must be established immediately.

Objective: This study was performed to measure the level of stress of cerebral palsy workers, and to investigate the relationship between the stress dimensions and stress inducing factors of cerebral palsy workers in Korean manufacturing industry. Method: The sample used in this study consists of 66 employees with cerebral palsy wokers. They are employees of the protective employment companies located in Seoul, Inchon, and Gyung-gi province. The Psycho-Social Well-being Index (PWI), which was designed through modification of Goldberg’s 60-items of General Health Questionnaire (GHQ), was used to measure the stress level. The following variables, independent and moderate variables, are designed for the same purpose. The independent variables are general and disability characteristics, workplace-related characteristics of the respondents. The moderate variables include social support, type A behavior pattern, self-esteem and coping strategy. The collected data were analyzed using SAS version 6.12 program. Results: The results of this study were summarized as follows; 1.　For the moderate variables, the low self esteem, and A type behavior were more significant to measure the stress level. 2.　The multiple regression analysis showed that the significant variables on the level of stress of cerebral palsy workers were low self-esteem and A type behavior pattern. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that appropriate health promotion programs, should be established and provided for reducing the stress of cerebral palsy workers in manufacturing industry.

The purpose of this study was to know whether the performance of activities of daily living(ADL) affect the depression level of disable people or not. In this study, the ADL item was divided into two category as basic ADL and instrumental ADL. The particip- ants were 67 persons with cerebral palsy(aged 16 to 49). Over 80% of the subjects had independent ability to perform the basic ADL, but, in instrumental ADL items, 50% of them needed assistance. Each of basic and instrument ADL item were signific- antly correlated to the depression level(p<0.01). The Spearman correlation coefficients of basic and instrumental ADL item were 0.336 and 0.416 respectively. As before, ins-trumental ADL item score was more correlated to depression level than basic ADL item score.

Since occupational therapy was introduced into Korea, over fifty years have passed. But the Korean Occupational Therapy. is still below the level. Therefore I surveyed the present condition and problems of occupational therapy in Korea, and planned its alternatives. The conclusions are as follows: 1. The absolute number of occupational therapist is not enough. So, the department of Occupational Therapy should be urgently established in university or college. 2. The medical insurance premium of Occupational Therapy is very low. So, it should be highly raised, and the item of that should be made various and detailed. 3. People do not understand and concern about Occupational Therapy So. we should give wider publicity about Occupational Therapy to people. 4. Occupational Therapist should improve themselves for the higher quality of treatment.

Hand skills are important to interaction with environment. Hands are the tools most often used to accomplish work, to play, to express and communicate. This study observed the grasp patterns of spastic cerebral palsied(39) and athetoid cerebral palsied children(l3). They were asked by occupational therapist that wrote their name with pencil and colored a circle with crayon. Their grasp patterns were recorded on the basis of which fingers were used to grasp the object, the surface areas of the fingers in contact with the object, and the position of the joints of the fingers. This paper will present the skill acquisition and the activities of daily living for the fine motor skill and self care to the child who has a disability affecting hand skills.

The grain and agronomic characteristics of Korean barley cultivars were investigated with respect to ethanol yield. Test weight, grain yield, and starch yield showed noticeable variation among the cultivars. Grain yields were higher in covered barley and non-waxy barley. Starch yield was higher in non-waxy barley than waxy barley. Protein, β -glucan, and starch content of tested cultivars ranged in 10.0-12.9%, 4.4-7.5% and 49.7-65.3%, respectively. Naked barley cultivar had higher starch content than covered barley cultivar. However, covered barley had high starch yield because it has higher grain yield than naked barley. Covered barley cultivar had higher husk content, ranging 7.6-14.0%, than that of naked barley cultivar, ranging 5.3-8.0%. Starch content was positively correlated with amylose content, test weight, ethanol yield and negatively correlated with protein, husk, β -glucan content. Ethanol yield per ton was positively correlated with starch content, but negatively correlated with husk content. Ethanol yield per hectare was positively correlated with starch yield, grain yield, grain weight and negatively correlated with protein, test weight. From this research, the important characteristics of barley cultivar as a bioethanol producing material were starch content and grain yield. Optimum barley genotype was non-waxy naked barley that had low protein, β -glucan, husk content, and high starch content and grain yield.

In order to get information on tocopherol content and composition in fifty-six soybean germplasms were evaluated by HPLC. From the principle component analysis, the first three components accounted for 71.6% of the total variance of tocopherol content in the germplasms. Principal component 1 showed significant correlations with all the morphological markers except 100-seed weight. Soybean germplasms were divided into three groups by the first two principal components. The highest content of α -tocopherol was 38.6~mug per g in Tanner, while that of ~gamma -tocopherol was 195.6~mug in PI 91073. In case of δ -tocopherol, IT 105622 showed the highest value as 29.8~mug . The contents of tocopherol were gradually increased from the late August to late September, which was 10 days before maturity, in Alchankong and PI 96322. The tocopherol content was higher in seeds from the plants sown early than those sown late. Total tocopherol contents of PI 96188, Geomjeongkong 2, and Suwon 183 grown in Gimje were higher than those grown in Iksan, but the difference was not observed in PI 96322. These results suggest that the contents of tocopherol in soybean were affected not only by the genotypes but also by environment.
