목적 : 본 연구는 상지근력 저하로 인해 일상생활 활동 수행이 제한되는 근육병 장애인을 대상으로 Arm Support 사용에 따른 작업 부하의 변화와 심리·사회적 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 연구 대상자는 지역사회에 거주하는 근육병 장애인 3명으로, 모두 척수성 근위축증을 진단받았다. 대상자는 능 동형 Arm Support 적용 전·후에 식사, 마스크 착용, 머리 빗기 활동을 수행하였다. 이후, NASA-TLX를 통해 능동형 Arm Support 적용 전·후 활동의 작업 부하를 측정 및 비교하였으며, 한국판 보조공학기기 심리·사회적 영향 척도 (K-PIADS)를 활용하여 Arm Support의 심리·사회적 영향력을 측정하였다. 마지막으로, 인터뷰를 통해 기기 사용 후 느낀 주관적인 감정 등에 대해 알아보았다. 결과 : 작업 부하 변화는 Arm Support 적용 후에 모든 항목의 평균 점수가 감소하였으며, 신체적 요구도 항목의 평균 점수가 가장 많이 감소하였다. 심리·사회적 영향 측정 결과는 하위 영역인 자기욕구 실현능력 2.08점(‘긍정적인 영향 ~ 매우 긍정적인 영향’), 적응성 2.06점(‘긍정적인 영향 ~ 매우 긍정적인 영향), 자존감 1.71점(’다소 긍정적인 영향 ~ 긍정 적인 영향‘)이었다. 인터뷰를 통해, 대상자는 Arm Support 사용함으로써 활동 수행 시 자신감, 만족감, 편안함 등을 느 꼈지만, Arm Support 구조가 정확하게 고정되지 않거나 휠체어 구조물의 간섭으로 인해 불편함 또한 느낀 것을 확인하 였다. 결론 : 본 연구를 통해 Arm Support가 근육병 장애인의 작업 부하를 낮추며, 긍정적인 심리·사회적 영향을 미치는 점 을 알 수 있었다. 추후에는 다양한 유형의 근육병 장애인을 대상으로 실생활 기반의 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이며, 체계 적인 평가를 통해 맞춤형의 서비스가 이루어져야 할 것이다. 본 연구의 결과가 Arm Support를 중재 전략으로 활용하는 연구와 서비스에 기초자료로 활용되기를 기대한다.

Background: Low back and neck pain are two of the most common medical problems in the adult population. It is estimated that between 70% and 80% adults experience an episode of low back pain at least once during their lifetime. Objects: This study aimed to compare the effects of various stretching exercises and muscle energy techniques used for treatment of iliopsoas, quadratus lumborum, and hamstrings of patients with low back pain. Methods: A total of 52 subjects were randomly assigned to the control group (n = 17), the muscle energy technology group (METG, n = 19), and the stretching exercise group (SEG, n = 16). Interventions were performed twice a week for 4 weeks. Outcomes were measured before and after 4 weeks of treatment in the three groups, using the Korean version of the Oswestry Disability Index, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Fear Avoidance Belief Questionnaire (FABQ), the Finger to Floor test (FTF), the Modified-Modified Schober Test (MMS), and the Trunk Flexion Range of Motion test. Results: This study showed significant reduction in the pre-test and post-test KODI, VAS, and FABQ scores in all the three groups (p < 0.05). The KODI, VAS, FABQ and FTF assessed in this study showed interactions between the groups and the measurement time point (p < 0.01). After intervention, the KODI, VAS, FABQ and FTF in the SEG and METG were significantly higher (p < 0.05), and there was no difference between the METG and SEG. MMS and HFROM test showed no difference between the three groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion: KODI, VAS, FABQ and FTF showed significant improvement after basic physical therapy, muscle energy technique, and stretching exercise intervention. And there was no significant difference in the intervention effect between the muscle energy group and the stretching exercise group.

Background: Neck pain is a major health problem in developed countries and has a lifetime prevalence of 50%. Major problems include a reduced cervical range of motion, muscle stiffness, dysfunction, postural changes, and decrease in psychosocial level. Objects: This study aimed to investigate the effects of applying the upper trapezius inhibition dynamic taping to patients with chronic neck pain on their neck pain, functional level, cervical range of motion, psychosocial level, and neck posture. Methods: The study design was a randomized controlled trial. A total of 40 patients with neck pain participated in this study and were randomly assigned to a Dynamic Taping group (n = 20) or Sham Taping group (n = 20). In both groups, basic intervention cervical pain control therapy and shoulder stabilization exercise program were performed. In addition, dynamic taping and sham taping were applied to participants in the Dynamic Taping and Sham Taping groups to inhibit the trapezius muscle, respectively. All interventions were performed three times a week and a total of 12 times for 4 weeks, and the participants’ neck pain, functional impairment level, cervical range of motion, psychosocial level, and neck posture were measured and compared before and after the intervention. Results: Both groups showed significant differences in neck pain, functional level, cervical range of motion, psychosocial level, and neck postural before and after the intervention (p < 0.05). Moreover, there were significant differences between the two groups regarding the functional level and neck posture (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Inhibition dynamic taping of the upper trapezius muscle suppression is an effective method with clinical significance in reducing pain in individuals with chronic neck pain and improving the functional level, cervical range of motion, psychosocial level, and neck posture.

Purpose: This qualitative research was conducted to explore the experiences of social workers encountering peer conflicts among abused boys living in child counseling protection center (center) and psychosocially intervening to resolve peer conflicts. Methods: The participants were four social workers who were caring for twenty abused boys at the center. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interview, and field data. The collected data were analyzed by emic coding. Results: First, the experiences of social workers encountering peer conflict phenomena among abused boys were ‘psychological distortion from abuse trauma’, ‘manifestation of impulse or aggression to trivial stimuli’, and ‘lack of mutual respect among peers’. Second, the experiences of social workers intervening in resolving peer conflicts among abused boys were ‘stabilize offended feeling’, ‘maintain stability through verbal and non-verbal interventions’, ‘apply positive techniques to improve peer relations’, and ‘help abused children overcome trauma and grow’. Conclusion: Social workers confirmed that the role of social welfare experts was important to secure understanding and insight into peer conflicts between abused children and to convert the pain of abused children into positive energy. The results of this study will help social welfare professionals develop a family-centered abuse trauma recovery program for abused children.

In addition to physical risks such as electrical, chemical, and mechanic ones in the workplace, psychosocial risks are also raising as an important issue in recent years in connection with human rights and work-life balance policies. The purpose of this study is to confirm the degree of effect of the psychosocial risk management plan at the workplace on workers through logistic regression analysis. Input data for logistic regression analysis is the results of a survey of 4,558 people conducted by the Institute for Occupational Safety and Health were used. There are 9 independent variables, including the change a workplace and confidential counseling, and the dependent variable is whether the worker feels the effect on the psychosocial risk management plan. As a result of this study, changes in work organization, dispute resolution procedures, provision of education program, notification of the impact of psychosocial risks on safety and health, and the persons in charge of solving psychosocial problems are shown effective in reducing worker’s psychosocial risks. This study drives which of the management plans implemented to reduce the psychosocial risk of workers in the workplace are effective, so it can contribute to the development of psychosocial risk management plans in the future.

Background: It is reported that the proprioceptive sensation of patients with neck pain is reduced, and neck sensory-motor control training using visual feedback is reported to be effective. Objects: The purpose of this study is to investigate how sensorimotor control training for the cervical spine affects pain, function, and psychosocial status in patients with chronic cervical pain. Methods: The subjects consisted of 36 adults (male: 15, female: 21) who had experienced cervical spine pain for more than 6 weeks. An exercise program composed of cervical stabilization exercise (10 minutes), electrotherapy (10 minutes), manual therapy (10 minutes), and cervical sensorimotor control training (10 minutes) was implemented for both the experimental and the control groups. The cervical range of motion (CROM) and head repositioning accuracy were assessed using a CROM device. In the experimental group, the subjects wore a laser device on the head to provide visual feedback while following pictures in front of their eyes; whereas, in the control group, the subjects had the same training of following pictures without the laser device. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in pain, dysfunction, range of motion, or psychosocial status; however, post-test results showed significant decreases after 2 weeks and 4 weeks compared to baseline (p < 0.01), and after 4 weeks compared to after 2 weeks (p < 0.01). The cervical joint position sense differed significantly between the two groups (p < 0.05). Conclusion: In this study, visual feedback enhanced proprioception in the cervical spine, resulting in improved cervical joint position sense. On the other hand, there were no significant effects on pain, dysfunction, range of motion, or psychosocial status.

Objectives: This systematic review examined the association of animal-assisted interventions (AAI) with quality of life (QoL) for pediatric oncology patients, for potential use in occupational therapy practice. Methods: Articles published in peer-reviewed journals between 2002-2019 from PubMed, MEDLINE, CINAHL, American Journal of Occupational Therapy (AJOT), Journal of Oncology, SCOPUS, and OTSeeker were selected for AAI with therapy dogs specific to the target population of pediatric oncology patients undergoing treatment in clinical settings. Results: Moderate evidence was found for AAI and mood improvement, pain reduction, and stress relief; and low-level evidence supported AAI for decreasing anxiety. The most significant AAI improvements were seen in perceptions of pain, stress levels, and mood. Discussion: Evidence suggests that occupational therapists may want to consider incorporating AAI into therapy sessions as it serves as a distraction and short-term coping strategy for children undergoing oncological treatment.

Can awakening to planetary consciousness open pathways to personal and social healing, reconciliation and redemption in the aftermath of mass suffering like Jeju 4.3? In this article, I aim (a) to identify the characteristics of planetary consciousness using my observations on a peace pilgrimage and case examples from Jeju, and (b) to clarify how planetary consciousness is developed through transformative learning processes. Planetary consciousness is the awareness that all beings, energies and phenomena are profoundly interconnected and interdependent. The development toward planetary consciousness can be understood using models such as the Transformative Learning Process, the Radical Forgiveness Method, and the Social Healing Through Justice Model. Progressing through the stages results in openness to multidimensional thinking and knowing. Individuals and communities who have worked through transformative learning processes demonstrate the possibility of genuine healing, reconciliation and the restoration of justice and dignity.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a theory describing the experiences of psychosocial adjustment (process) among the recipients of pancreas transplantation in Korea. Methods: Data were collected by individual in-depth interviews with nine recipients of pancreas transplantation during 2010-2011. The data were transcribed and analyzed using grounded theory method to identify psychosocial adjustment process. Results: As a result of constant comparative analysis, "Pursuing ordinary life to free fromrestraints of diabetes" emerged as the core category. Five stages emerged: 1) Temporal liberation and satisfaction; 2) Disappointing with regrets and anger; 3) Facing up to the reality to be thankful; 4) Executing self-initiated management; and 5) Peaceful acceptance of reality as it is. "Excessive expectation" and "social support" are other categories that influenced the process. Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that health professionals need to provide tailored and balanced information to recipients of pancreas transplantation both before and after the transplantation to relieve psychosocial distress after the transplantation.

Background: Chronic back pain shows a high correlation with lumbar disability, physical disability for daily activities, and psychosocial factors, such as depression. Object: The purpose of this study was to examine the correlation of the level of pain and disability with psychosocial factors, which are potential disturbance variables, in patients with chronic lumbar pain. Method: The sample included 258 patients, who had complained of chronic lumbar pain for more than three months. The Quadruple Visual Analogue Scale was used to measure the level of pain, and a Korean version of Oswestry Disability Index was used to measure the level of disability. Psychosocial factors were measured using the Tampa scale for Kinesiophobia-11, Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire, and Pain Self-Efficacy Questionnaire. The collected data was analyzed using PASW 18.0, and an independent samples t-test was used to examine frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation of sociodemographic characteristics and major variables. Pearson’s correlation coefficient was used to investigate the correlation between the level of pain and disability and psychosocial factors. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was done to determine the level of pain and psychosocial factors of functional disorder. The significance level was set at α=.05. Result: There is a strong correlation between the level of pain and functional disorder and psychosocial factors in patients with chronic lumbar pain. The study also revealed that as the levels of pain and fear avoidance increase, pain self-efficacy decreases. Conclusion: The results suggest that negative perceptions towards pain, limitations of physical movement, and severe fear avoidance directly affect the decrease in pain self-efficacy. Therefore, it is recommended to test pain self-efficacy when measuring the level of pain and disability in patients with chronic low back pain.

여성은 연령과 사회경제적 위치에 따라 건강문제에 상당 한 차이가 있어 여성건강증진을 위해 지속적 노력을 기울여 야 한다. 숲은 현대인의 스트레스를 해소하고 면역력을 높 여주는 더할 나위 없는 자연환경이다. 숲 체험 경험이 있는 경우와 경험횟수가 많은 경우에 중년여성이 지각하는 삶의 만족도, 행복감, 희망수준이 유의하게 높은 것으로 나타났 다. 숲을 자주 이용할 수 있는 직장인들은 그렇지 못한 직장 인들에 비해 직무에 대한 스트레스가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이에 본 연구는 평소 숲 방문 빈도가 성인 여성의 스트레스 수준에 있어 어떤 차이를 가져오는지를 살펴보고자 했다. 20대 이상의 성인 여성 407명을 연구 대상으로 선정하여 숲 방문 빈도(숲 방문 빈도가 월 1회 이상인 144명은 “높음” 으로, 분기별 1회 이하인 263명은 “낮음”으로 분류)에 따라 구분한 두 집단 사이의 사회·심리적 스트레스(SF-PWI)와 스 트레스 반응(SRI)을 독립 t검증으로 비교하였다. 연구 결과 숲 방문 빈도에 따라 구분한 두 집단 사이의 사회·심리적 스트레스(SF-PWI)와 스트레스 반응(SRI)을 비교한 결과, 연령, 교육수준, 결혼 상태, 직업 등의 인구학 적 특성에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 발견하였다. 특히 50대 이상, 고학력의 전문․연구직, 교직, 400만원 이상이 각 각 숲 방문 빈도가 높게 나타났다. 우리나라 인구의 고학력 화와 고학력에 따른 경제활동 우위, 그로부터 얻어지는 경 제적 안정에서 원인을 찾을 수 있을 것이다. 고학력 전문직 에 종사하는 여성은 건강과 스트레스 감소를 위해 숲을 자 주 방문한다는 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 또한, 고졸, 100만원 미만의 저학력, 저소득의 무직·기타의 여성도 숲을 자주 방 문하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 소득이 적을수록 비용이 상 대적으로 적게 드는 산책과 같은 활동을 선호하는 것으로 사료된다. 두 집단의 스트레스 수준을 분석한 결과 숲 방문을 통한 산림환경이용 빈도에 따른 차이를 확인할 수 있었다. 사회· 심리적 척도(SF-PWI), 스트레스 반응척도(SRI)에서 숲 방 문을 통해 산림환경 이용 빈도가 높은 집단이 사회·심리적 스트레스와 우울, 피로 등의 스트레스 반응이 적은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 ‘숲 방문 빈도’만으로 숲 방문을 통한 효과를 측정했기 때문에 대상자들이 숲을 ‘어떻게 이용하는지’에 대해서는 확인할 수 없었다. 추후 연구에서는 스트레스 완 화에 더 효과적인 숲 이용방식과 산림치유 프로그램에 대한 후속연구가 필요하다. 본 연구 결과는 숲을 평소에 적극적으로 방문하는 것이 성인 여성들로 하여금 스트레스를 좀 더 적게 받게 하고, 피로도와 우울도를 낮추는데 도움이 됨을 시사한다. 본 연 구를 계기로 차후 성인 여성의 산림환경 이용방식에 대한 다각화된 조사와 함께 숲 방문 빈도가 비교적 활발한 직업 의 교사, 주부, 회사원 등의 직업에 대한 검증, 숲 방문 빈도 를 통한 산림환경이 일반 성인의 스트레스를 감소시키는데 어떻게 영향을 미치는지에 대한 연구가 이루어지기를 기대 한다.

In the perspective of industrial health management, it is important for the employee to decrease their job stress, to improve their productivity and quality of labor. In this study, the job stress, and it's influence on PWI(Psychosocial Wellbeing Index) were investigated by the questionnaire survey of 138 industrial workers who had studied assistive technology in college. The contents of questionnaire consist of the demographic characteristics, job-related characteristics, job stress and psycho-social stress. We evaluated job stress by KOSS-SF(Korean Occupational Stress Scale-Sort Form) and psychosocial stress by PWI-SF(Psychosocial Well-being Index-Short Form). To analyze the results, we evaluated the exposure level of KOSS and PWI by demographic characteristics and job-related characteristics using significance tests. Also, we estimated the relationship among demographic characteristics, job-related characteristics, job stress and psychosocial stress, using correlation analysis. As a results, all workers were found to be in a group under the high risky stress. It showed that the scale index of female's job non-autonomy and pwi were much larger than those of male's. Therefore, to guarantee job autonomy of female workers should be more emphasized, to improve their working environment. Job type had significant relationships with many job stress category; physical environment, job demand, job instability and organization culture. Regarding pwi, the scale index of the workers who is in charge of the civil service such as contacting the disabled and the aged in person, were much larger than that of the other workers. Accordingly, the job stress management program including physical environment, job demand, job instability and organization culture, should be suggested, to decrease the stress of the workers in charge of the disabled and the elders service. The strongest predictors of pwi was organization system through maximum positive relations between organization system and pwi. Therefore, it indicates that improvement of organization system such as a fair merit rating, a manpower supply, demand plan and department cooperation is urgently needed to reduce pwi.

This study attempted to evaluate the direct and indirect effect of emotional labor, job and psychosocial stress, and fatigue of beauty industry workers on their musculoskeletal diseases. The findings of this study showed that, among the workers with perceived symptoms of musculoskeletal diseases, the body part with the most commonly occurring symptom was the shoulder, followed by neck, low back, wrist, arm, foot and knee. As for the effect of work-related psychological factors on musculoskeletal diseases, it was found that the workers with musculoskeletal diseases were more affected by emotional labor and fatigue than non-symptom workers. It was also shown that when their job stress increased, the fatigue level also increased, though their psychosocial stress decreased. In addition, it was found that both direct and indirect effects of emotional labor on fatigue were high, and the indirect effect of job stress through fatigue on musculoskeletal diseases was significant.

This paper tried to apply psychosocial factors in industrial safety research. Since Zohar's(1980) publication of safety climate in the field of safety research, this approach have been done by many researchers. Here, this paper reviewed the relationship between safety climate factors(safety rule, prevention, superior attitude, social support) and safety compliance, and the moderating effects of work condition, required skill and age. Based on the responses from 233 employees in Kangwon province industry, hierarchical regressional analysis showed that all safety climate factors(safety rule, prevention, superior attitude, social support) have positive relationship with safety compliance. Safety rule appeared to be more positively related with safety compliance, while work condition is more favorable and worker is older. But social support appeared to be more positively with safety compliance, while work condition is more unfavorable, and also prevention appeared to be more positively with safety compliance, while worker is more younger.

본 연구는 직무 스트레스와 근골격계질환과의 관련성을 알아보기 위하여 단순작업과 반복 작업이 빈번하게 발생하는 전자제품 제조업에 대하여 고용 규모 30인 미만과 300인 이상의 사업장을 구분하여 실시하였다. 연구 대상자 311명은 근골격계질환 관련 자각증상과 한국인 직무 스트레스(KOSS)에 대해 설문 조사 방법을 이용하여 분석하였으며, 그 결과 한국인 직무스트레스(KOSS)영역에서 30인 이하의 사업장이 물리적환경, 직무요구, 직무자율성결여, 직무불안정, 조직체계, 보상부적절, 직장문화의 영역에서 불만족도가 300인 이상사업장에 비하여 스트레스가 높게 나타났다. 근골격계질환 관련 신체 부위별 증상자를 살펴보면 신체부위 목, 허리에 대한 증상 호소자가 가장 많은 것으로 나타났으며, 근로자들이 근무중 회사와의 갈등으로 격는 한국인 직무스트레스(KOSS)에서는 물리적환경, 직무요구, 직무자율성결여, 직무불안정, 조직체계, 보상부적절, 직장문화에 대하여 30인 미만 사업장 소속 근로자들의 스트 레스 노출정도가 높았다. 다만 KOSS부분에서 근로자들의 개인적인 성향을 나타내는 관계갈등부분은 약간의 차이로 300인 이상 고용사업장의 근로자에 대한 스트레스 노 출정도가 높았다. 이에 30인 미만 사업장과 같은 영세업종 근로자들에게 정신사회적 스트레스의 해소를 위한 예방 프로그램이 마련되어야 할 것이다.
