Objective: This study was performed to examine the relationship between community-based social support and psychosocial distress in workers. Methods: The study subjects were 596 workers recruited from 11 companies in Chungju city. A structured questionnaire was used to assess sociodemographics, health-related behaviors, job characteristics, job stress, work-based social support, community-based social support and level of psychosocial distress. Results: Hierarchical multiple regression analysis showed that workers with no chronic disease, exercise and sufficient sleep had a higher score of psychosocial distress than those with chronic disease, no exercise, and not enough sleep. Coworker's work-based social support and community-based social support were negatively associated with psychosocial distress. The R square value of total independent variables on psychosocial distress was 0.409, and that of community-based social support on psychosocial distress was 0.052. Conclusion: This study showed that community-based social support served as a protective factor against psychosocial distress in some workers. We recommend the establishment of a worksite stress reduction program in occupational level as well as community-based social support.

S-277 Prognostic value of echocadiography for CKD patients with HF with reduced EF initiating hemodialysis

( Kyunghee Lim ),( Jin-oh Choi1 ) 대한내과학회 2016 대한내과학회 추계학술대회 Vol.2016 No.1

Background: Heart failure (HF) is highly prevalent in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Among the CKD patients initiating hemodialysis, left ventricular (LV) systolic dysfunction was reported up to 15 %. The aim of this study was to evaluate value of echocardiography to determine adverse cardiac outcomes in CKD patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). Methods: In this retrospective study, we surveyed 843 patients with both advanced CKD and HF who were starting hemodialysis in our hospital during the period 2005 - 2015. HFrEF was defined by LVEF ≤ 50 % with symptoms of HF. We inspected echocardiography, comorbidity, medication, laboratory findings in 94 patients with advanced CKD and HFrEF. The primary endpoint was comparison of echocardiographic parameters between hospitalization group and non-hospitaliztion group and secondary endpoints was all cause mortality in between two group. Results: 40 (42 %) patients were hospitalized caused by HF, and 18 (19.1 %) patients were deceased. Before initiation of hemodialysis, LV end-systolic (LVIDs) and end-diastolic diameter (LVIDd) were higher in patients with experience of hospitalization due to HF than patients without hospitalization (LVIDd: 60.5±8.14 mm vs 56.5±7.16, p=0.016) (LVIDs: 46.5±9.2 vs 41.7±8.0, p=0.01). Also There was a difference in relative wall thickness (RWT) between the two groups (0.334±0.073 vs 0.365±0.077, p=0.047) The 4.3-year survival rates of two group were 93.2% and 56.4 respectively by the Kaplan-Meier survival estimation (p=0.005). Conclusions: In CKD with HFrEF, LVIDs, LVIDd and RWT were strong predictors for adverse cardiac outcomes. Identification and measurement of LVIDs, LVIDd, RWT significantly improve risk stratification in high risk population

( Lee¸ Kyunghee ),( Heo¸ Youngjin ),( Han¸ Mihwa ),( Kim¸ Mijung ),( Choi¸ Hyunseok ) 한국정신간호학회 2021 정신간호학회지 Vol.30 No.3

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the reliability and validity of the metacognition rating scale (MCRS), which is a revised version of the existing metacognition questionnaire (MCQ) with anger and anxiety added. Methods: A survey was conducted on 591 nursing students at colleges in North and South Gyeongsang Provinces, South Korea. The collected data were processed for the reliability and validity of the MCRS through Cronbach’s α and confirmatory factor analysis using SPSS 26.0. Results: Cronbach’s α for the reliability of MCRS was calculated at .88, .86, .77, .74, and .66 for five subfactors. Among the five subfactors, the first, second, third, and fifth factors showed high correlation in each of six items. Factor 4 was highly correlated in 5 out of 6 questions. Conclusion: The data confirm that the MCQ revised to include anger and anxiety is both reliable and valid for nursing students. Therefore, this scale can be used to identify the maladaptive metacognition of nursing students in stressful situations.

Attractiveness to major lepidopteran pests in apple orchards using different rice wines and furit-based fermenting baits

KyungHee Choi,KyeChung Park,SunYoung Lee,YunSu Do 한국응용곤충학회 2011 한국응용곤충학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.2011 No.10

This research is aiming to develop generic attractants for lepidopteran pests that can be used as a control tool for environmentally friendly management against the lepidopteran pests in orchards. During the first year of this research we carried out various trapping experiments in apple orchards in Korea. Field trapping experiments were carried out at two apple orchards in UaiSung-Gun, GyungBuk Province during May – September 2010, using different rice wines and fruit-based fermenting baits. Overall, when six major moth pest species(Grapholita molesta, Carposina sasakii, Adoxophyes orana, Choristoneura longicellana, Archippus breviplicanus, Phyllonorycter ringoniella) in apple orchards were counted, 445 moths were captured in raw material-baited traps and 1,566 moths in sex pheromone-baited traps. There were no clear differences in the attractiveness to the moths between different kinds of rice wines and fruit baits when the attractiveness of fifteen different rice wines and seven fermenting fruit baits were compared in the apple orchards. One rice wine (‘Chung-ju’ rice wine) and fermenting pineapple showed somewhat higher attractiveness to G. molesta than other raw baits, which will be re-examined in 2011 – 2012 periods.

A Study on Learning to Write English Interrogative Sentences

Choi, Kyunghee The English Teachers Association in Korea 2012 영어어문교육 Vol.18 No.2

This paper aims to discuss the effects of learning how to write English interrogative sentences. 122 students who participated in the study learned basic structural components of English questions and practiced writing questions by inversing the subject and the verb in a given declarative sentence. The participants were divided into two groups: Group 1 which was given a brief explanation of interrogative structures and practices, and Group 2 which was given the same explanation and practices in addition to an assignment for which they had to make one or two comprehension questions based on reading a passage. For the pre-tests and the post-tests, they took a TOEIC reading test with 40 questions and a structure test with 25 questions. The results of the tests show that both groups improved significantly in the two post-tests, benefiting from this learning method. However, the additional treatment for Group 2 did not seem to be highly effective. In the questionnaire survey, the participants think that the method of learning English questions has helped them better understand English grammar as well as interrogative structures. The participants were also divided into three different levels: high, intermediate, and low. The intermediate level group students benefited most from learning writing questions as the results of the post-test of the 25-questions test and the final exam of the course show.

The Nature of Students' Participation and the Use of Strategies for English Reading

Kyunghee Choi 한국영어학학회 2005 영어학연구 Vol.- No.19

This paper argues that scores of the multiple choice test TOEFL cannot predict how students perform on the task of thorough understanding of an English text. What should be noted instead are the degree of participation and the use of socioaffective strategies by students while cooperating to complete the task. The paper suggests that when students participate more actively and ask strategic questions more frequently, they can get more useful scaffolding from each other. However, if the level of the difficulty reaches too far beyond their current proficiency level, students can not provide scaffolding for one another. The paper argues that even though collective scaffolding does not always guarantee successful results, it is significant to emphasize the importance of teaching socioaffective strategies and creating an environment in which students can feel comfortable raising questions.

Choi Sunhye,Bahk Jinwook,Park Suyeon,Oh Kyungwon,Jung-Choi Kyunghee 한국역학회 2022 Epidemiology and Health Vol.44 No.-

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to describe trends in health behaviours between 2011 and 2020 and compare the changes in these behaviours between the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic and previous periods according to socio-demographic variables.METHODS: This study used data from the 2011 to 2020 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Current cigarette smoking, high-risk drinking, and inadequate physical activity levels were used as health behaviour indicators. The age-standardized prevalence, differences in prevalence between the periods, and the annual percentage change (APC) were calculated.RESULTS: Current cigarette smoking showed a decreasing trend (APC, -2.6), high-risk drinking remained unchanged, and inadequate physical activity levels increased (APC, 3.5) during 2011-2020. There were significant differences in high-risk drinking (3.1%p; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.3 to 5.9) and inadequate physical activity levels (4.3%p; 95% CI, 0.4 to 8.1) between 2019 and 2020 in men. Among men, increased high-risk drinking was found in those aged 40-49 years, non-single households, urban residents, and the middle and highest income groups between 2019 and 2020. The low educational group and manual workers among men aged 30-59 years also showed an increased proportion of high-risk drinking. Inadequate physical activity levels also increased among men between 2019 and 2020 in those aged 30-39 years, non-single households, urban residents, and the upper-middle-income group.CONCLUSIONS: In the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, Korean men’s high-risk drinking and inadequate physical activity levels increased. In addition to social efforts to reduce the spread of infectious diseases, active measures to positively change health behaviour are needed.
