The purpose of this study was to evaluate inter-rater reliability of the amplitude and first knee extension angles in deep tendon reflex test by using an electrical hammer. Twenty-five healthy adults participated in the study. Compound muscle action potential is elicited by tapping the knee tendon with an electrical hammer in deep tendon reflex tests. The amplitude and knee extension angle were simultaneously measured. The mean value of the amplitude and the knee extension angles through three time trials for each tester, are used for determining the inter-rater and Intra-class Correlation Coefficients (ICCs) reliabilities. According to the results, the ICCs of the amplitude is .280 and that of the knee extension angle is .789. Pearson correlation coefficients of the amplitude of the action potential and the knee extension angles are .685, showing significant statistically moderate correlation. Inter-rater reliability in the amplitude was not significant. More objective and quantitative deep tendon reflex tests should be done to obtain higher reliability in further studies.

The purpose of this study was to compare the onset times of muscle activities and the order of muscle firing in erector spinae, multifidus, rectus abdominis and biceps brachii during perturbation between subjects with and without work-related chronic low back pain (LBP). Twenty-nine subjects, 14 with and 15 without LBP, participated in this study. The muscle responses were measured by surface EMG (electromyography) during perturbation in eye opened and eye closed conditions. The EMG onset times of the erector spinae, multifidus, rectus abdominis and biceps brachii were similar between groups in eye closed condition. But the onset times of the erector spinae, multifidus, rectus abdominis were significantly delayed in subjects with LBP in eye opened condition. The results provide an evidence for impaired feed-forward control of the trunk muscles in subjects with LBP. Further studies are needed to identify whether the impaired feed-forward control of the trunk muscles is the contributing factor to LBP.

This study was performed by questionnaire to investigate current use of native local foods of adults in Gyeongju classified by age.

Therefore, more systematic studies to investigate the meal variety roles of blood lipids in meals of adults were required.

본 연구의 목적은 21%농도의 산소와 비교하여 30%의 고농도 산소 흡입이 사이클 등속 운동 중에 심박동률(heart rate)과 혈중 산소 포화도(SPO2)에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것이다. 21%와 30% 농도의 산소를 각각 8liter/min의 양으로 일정하게 공급할 수 있는 산소 공급 장치를 이용하였다. 신체 건강한 10명의 남자 대학생(25.2±2.2세)이 21%와 30%의 두 종류의 산소 농도를 대상으로 각각 두 번의 실험에 참여하였다. 실험은 안정(2분), 20±1km/h의 사이클 등속 운동(10분), 회복(6분)의 세 구간(총 18분)으로 구성되어 있고, 21%또는 30%의 산소는 등속 운동과 회복 구간에만 공급되었다. 21%에 비해 30%산소를 흡입했을 때 사이클 등속 운동과 회복 기간 중에 심박동률은 감소하였고, 혈중 산소 포화도는 .차이가 없었다. 21%와 30% 두 그룹 사이에 동일한 운동부하가 주어졌기 때문에 혈중 산소 포화도는 차이가 없는 것으로 판단되고, 30%의 고농도 산소 흡입으로 동일운동 부하에 필요한 산소 요구량이 원활히 공급되고 있기 때문에 심박동률은 감소한 것으로 판단된다.

충남 청양군 정산면에 위치한 삼성광산은 견운모를 생산하고 있는 광산으로서, 이 광산 및 주변지역에서 산출되는 견운모에 대한 지질학적 및 광물학적 연구를 실시하였다. 이 연구를 위해 야외지질조사 및 편광현미경 관찰, X선회절분석, 전자현미분석, X선형광분석, 시차열분석, K/Ar 동위원소분석 등의 실내연구를 실시하였다. 삼성광산 지역은 선캠브리아기의 화강편마암이 넓게 분포하고 있으며, 같은 시기의 운모편암이 발달하고 있다. 견운모는 화강편마암의 열수변질 작용에 의해 생성된 것으로 사료되며, 원암의 주요 구성광물인 정장석 →사장석→흑운모의 순서로 변질된다. 견운모화가 진행되어 감에 따라 석영의 외곽부분에서 용해작용에 의한 만곡현상이 심화되다가 점차 사라진다. 견운모로의 변질작용이 진행됨에 따라 모암의 화학성분은 SiO2 and Na2O 함량은 감소하는 반면, Al2O3 and K2O는 증가하는 양상을 나타낸다. 견운모의 생성시기는 중생대 쥬라기이며, 이 시기는 화강편마암을 관입한 흑운모화강암의 관입시기와 잘 일치한다.

목적 : 본 연구는 수행에 대한 지식과 결과에 대한 지식이 정신지체 성인의 운동 학습에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위함이다. 연구방법 : 한 명의 정신지체 성인 여성이 연구에 참여하였고 교대중재 방법을 적용하였다. 운동학습 과제는 기능적으로 독립된 두 가지의 서로 다른 타이핑 하기였고, 결과에 대한 지식을 제공하는 타이핑과 수행에 대한 지식을 제공하는 타이핑을 연습하게 했다. 그 이후 훈련 직후, 훈련 후 1시간 경과 후에 기초선 측정과 같은 방법으로 수행 시간과 실패율(%)을 측정하였다. 또한 훈련 효과의 보존을 알아보기 위해 이틀이 경과한 후에 다시 측정하였다. 결과 : 두 중재 모두에서 운동 학습 과제에 대한 수행시간과 오류가 감소하였다. 연습 직후에서는 수행에 대한 지식 중재가 결과에 의한 지시 중재보다 과제 수행시간 단축 백분율이 높았지만, 연습 1시간 후와 유지기간에서는 결과에 대한 지식 중재가 수행에 의한 지식 중재보다 과제 수행시간 단축 백분율이 높았다. 수행에 대한 지식 중재보다 결과에 의한 지식 중재는 각 시점에서 실패율이 낮았다. 결론 : 결과에 대한 지식 중재는 수행에 대한 지식 중재에 비해 좀 더 빠르게 학습을 촉진하고 오래 유지하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 정신지체인의 운동학습을 촉진하기 위한 되먹임으로 결과에 대한 지식 중재방법을 사용하는 것이 효과적일 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to produce the regression equation from non-exercise of healthy young adults and to develop a maximal oxygen consumption () regression model. This model was based on heart rate non-exercise predictor variables (rest heart rate, maximal heart rate/rest heart rate), as an extra addition to the general regression which can reflect an individual's inherent or acquired cardiorespiratory fitness. The subjects were 101 healthy young adults aged 19 to 35 years. Exercise testing was measured by using a Balke protocol for treadmill and indirect calorimetry. The prediction equation was analyzed by using stepwise multiple regression procedures. The mean of was (meanSD). The greatest variable correlated to was %fat. The predictor variable used in the non-exercise included %fat, gender, habitual physical activity and . The non-exercise estimation was as follows: ()=55.58-.41(%fat)+.59(physical activity rating)-2.69()-5.36 (male=0, female=1); (R=.85, SEE=3.64, R2=.72: including heart rate variable); ()=48.47-.41(%fat)+.45(physical activity rating)-5.12 (male=0, female=1); (R=.84, SEE=3.74, R2=.70: with the exception of heart rate variable). As an added heart rate variable, there was only a 2% coefficient of determination improved. Therefore, these results demonstrated that heart rate variable correlation with a non-exercise regression model was very low. In conclusion, for healthy young korean adults, those variables that can affect non-exercise estimation turned out to be only % fat, gender, and physical activity. We suggest that further research of predictor variables for non-exercise is necessary for different patient groups who cannot perform maximal exercise or submaximal exercise.

It has been reported that illegal drug abuse is one of the emerging problems and continuously increasing in recent years. This study examines the extent of illegal drug-abuse and comprehend citizen's attitudes toward various drug-abuse issues for developing new strategies to reduce or prevent illegal drug abuse. Using data from 2,500 male an female adults in 7 major metropolitan cities, results show that 4.6% of respondents has experienced a broad sense of drug abuse. It is revealed that 61.9% of drug abusers reply curiosity as a motive of drug abuse. In addition, drug abusers have a favorable attitude toward drug abuse, and they feel curiosity and perceive it less harmful. Almost respondents reply to need a rigid enforcement of regulation and emphasize a severe punishment. However, 55.3% of the respondents reply a need of both punishment an medical/psychical treatment. In addition, research findings show that respondents emphasize prevention and education as a primary policy.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of visual information and different elevations of medially wedged insoles on the proprioceptive sense of the knee joint. The subjects of this study were 16 able-bodied men who were not athletic. An electrogoniometer was used to determine the error value between calculated 50% of full flexion (target position) and performed 50% of full flexion in a standing position with the upper extremities crossed. Tests were randomly performed in conditions. Visual variations included open eyes vs. closed eyes, while the elevation was adjusted through the use (or lack thereof) of medially wedged insoles of 10 mm, 14 mm, and 18 mm. The average error value in each condition was statistically analyzed. The findings of this study revealed as follows: 1) The average error value was significantly higher with the subjects' eyes open than with their eyes closed (p<.05). 2) The averaged error value was also significantly higher when the subjects were elevated 18 mm than with no elevation at all (p<.05). The findings of this study should be considered in lower extremity rehabilitation programs when medially wedged insoles used.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation and characteristics between electromyographic (EMG) activities of lower leg muscles and the posturographic assessment of static balance control in normal adults. Twenty-four young, healthy adults(12 males, 12 females) participated in the study. Center of pressure (COP) parameters were obtained using force platform as total path distance, total sway area, X mean frequency and Y mean frequency for 20 seconds in the following conditions: (1) comfortable standing with eyes opened or closed, (2) uncomfortable standing (feet together) with eyes opened or closed, (3) virtual moving surround delivered using Head mount display (HMD) with four different moving patterns. The virtual moving patterns consisted of close-far, superior-inferior tilting (pitch), right-left tilting (roll), and horizontal rotation (yaw) movements. Surface electromyographic activites were recorded on the tibialis anterior, peroneus longus, medial and lateral heads of gastrocnemius muscles under each condition. Correlation between the posturographic measures and EMG activities were evaluated. Total path distance and total sway area of COP were significantly increased during uncomfortable standing. EMG activity of tibialis anterior was significantly more during uncomfortable standing and virtual moving surround stimulation than during comfortable standing. Total path distance and sway area of COP during comfortable standing with closed eyes showed significant positive correlation with the EMG activities of the lateral head of gastrocnemius muscle. Total path distances and total sway area of COP during muscle. Total path distances and total sway area of COP during presentation of virtual moving surround also had significant positive correlations with EMG activities of the lateral head of gastrocnemius muscle under close-far movement.
