본 연구의 목적은 클라이언트의 트라우마에 지속적으로 노출되는 전문가의 이차외상스트레스를 예 방하고 레질리언스를 강화하기 위해 조직적 차원에서 활용될 수 있는 이차외상스트레스 예방 프로 그램을 개발하고자 하는 것이다. 이를 위하여 개입조사모델이 활용되었다. 아동보호전문기관 상담 원들을 대상으로 욕구조사와 포커스 집단면접을 실시하여 상담원들이 경험하는 이차외상스트레스 의 수준, 이차외상스트레스가 업무와 개인적 삶에 미치는 영향, 기관에서 트라우마 관련 교육의 현 황, 이차외상스트레스 예방 프로그램을 실시한다면 필요한 내용과 운영방법 등에 대해 확인하였다. 이러한 과정을 거쳐 개발된 프로그램을 아동보호전문기관 상담원 7명을 대상으로 초기 현장실험을 실시한 결과, 개발된 프로그램이 상담원들의 이차외상스트레스와 우울 수준을 감소시키고, 스트레 스 대처방식의 사용 수준을 향상시켰음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 장차 트라우마 에 노출된 클라이언트를 주된 대상으로 실천하는 전문가들을 위한 조직적 차원의 예방 프로그램을 최종 개발하였다. The purpose of this study is to develop a program that can be adopted at an organizational level, preventing secondary traumatic stress and strengthening resilience of practitioners who are continuously exposed to client’s trauma. During the process of the program development, the intervention research model was employed. Both need survey and focus group interview were performed to counselors in child protection agencies, which confirmed the level of secondary traumatic stress experienced by counselors, impact on their work and personal life, and the status of the trauma-related training programs offered at an organizational level. The required contents and operational methods of the programs were also identified. A pilot study performed on 7 counselors found that the program reduced the level of secondary traumatic stress and depression, and improved the stress-coping style of the counselors. Based on the results, a preventative program was finally developed at an organizational level for practitioners working with trauma-exposed clients.

Objective The aims of this study were to explore the prevalence of and identify predictors of anxiety and depression related to coronavirus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) in South Korea.Methods The analysis is based on a quota survey design and a sampling frame that permitted recruitment of a national sample of 1,014 individuals between March 17–31, 2020. Several standardized measurements were used, including GAD-7, PHQ-9, COVID-19 related fear, restrictions in deaily life, as well as sociodemographic information and physical and psychosocial needs during the pandemic. Multiple logistic regression was conducted to analyze the influence of sociodemographic factors, fear, and physical/psychosocial needs on anxiety and depression.Results Significant numbers of the respondents were identifiable anxiety (19.0%) and depression group (17.5%), respectively. This indicates that the depression and anxiety prevalence rate after the COVID-19 is substantially high compared to the depression rate of 2.6% in 2020 and 2.8% in 2018 both reported in the Korea Community Health Survey and the anxiety rate of 5.7% reported in 2016 Survey of Mental Disorders in Korea. Multiple logistic regression results showed age, COVID-19 related fear, and the level of restrictions in daily as significant factors in understanding and predicting the anxiety group. Likfewise, the COVID-19 related fear, restrictions in daily life, and need for economic support were important predictors in predicting the depression group.Conclusion Findings on predictors for greater vulnerability to anxiety and depression has important implications for public mental health in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

본 연구는 구제역 방역에서 가축의 살처분과 매몰업무를 담당한 공무원의 정신건강과 시간의 경과 에 따른 정신건강의 변화를 확인하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 가축의 매몰과 살처분 업무를 담당하고 2011년 2월에 실시한 1차조사와 약 10개월 후에 실시한 추후조사 모두에 응답한 29명의 자료를 분석 하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 외상후 스트레스장애 고위험군은 추후조사에서 17.2%로 나타났다. 외상후 스트레스 증상, 하위영역인 회피, 침습, 과각성 증상, 우울증상은 감소하였으나 통계적 유의성은 없었으며, 불안증상은 변화가 없었다. 둘째, 개인별 증상변화는 외상후 스트레스 증상, 불안증상이 증 가한 개인이 더 많은 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 구제역 가축의 살처분과 매몰을 담당한 공무원들이 추후조사에서도 여전히 높은 수준의 정신건강문제를 경험하고 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 연구결과에 근거하여 구제역 방역을 담당한 공무원의 정신건강에 대한 지속적 모니터링과 개입의 필요성을 제언하였다. This study aims to identify mental health conditions and their changes over time among government officials who were involved in the burial and disposal of livestock during the foot and mouth disease epidemics. The initial study was conducted in February 2011 and the follow-up study was conducted after 10 months. The data from 29 officials who voluntarily participated in both initial and follow-up study were analyzed, and 17.2% of the participants in the follow-up study were found to show a high risk of PTSD. The PTSD symptoms and its sub-domains such as avoidance, intrusion, hyper arousal symptoms, and depressive symptoms decreased but the reductions were not statistically significant. No change was found on anxiety either in the follow-up study. In particular, more individuals increased their PTSD and anxiety symptoms in the follow-up study. These results imply that the government officials who worked on the burial and disposal activities of livestock still had a high level of mental health problems. Based on the results of this study, the necessity of continuous monitoring and intervention was suggested to address mental health problems of government officials in Korea.

Jinhee Kwon(Jinhee Kwon),Eun-Jeong Han(Eun-Jeong Han),Hyun Ki Kim(Hyun Ki Kim) 한국노인간호학회 2023 노인간호학회지 Vol.25 No.2

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to confirm how the income level of the family caregivers for recipients in long-term care (LTC) facilities are related to family caregivers’ willingness to pay out-of-pocket payments for better LTC services. Methods: This study used the 2021 survey data on cost sharing in LTC facilities, which surveyed 1,111 family caregivers of recipients. To analyze the effect of the income level of family caregivers on the willingness to pay out-of-pocket payments for better LTC services, a chi-square test, a Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test, and a logistic regression analysis were performed. Results: We found that 39.0% of respondents were willing to pay out-of-pocket payments if better services were available to recipients. Adjusted for recipient’s and family caregivers’ variables, characteristics of out-of-pocket payment, and LTC service use, the willingness to pay in the monthly household income level of 5 million won and more was 3.28 times higher than those in the monthly household income level of less than 1 million won (95% confidence level=1.93~5.55, p<.001). As monthly household income rises, the odds ratio of willingness to pay tended to increase (p<.001). Conclusion: Family caregivers who bear the out-of-pocket payments of LTC facilities are willing to pay more for better LTC services. In addition, the higher the income level of family caregivers, the higher their willingness to pay. A full-scale review of the system reform is needed to prevent out-of-pocket payments from becoming an economic barrier to service users and to contribute to service quality improvement and financial stability.

본 연구는 2017년 11월 15일에 발생한 포항지진 당시 재난심리지원활동을 수행한 실무자들의 서비스 제공 경험을 통해 국내 재난심리지원체계 실태를 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 포항 지진 당시 재난심리지원활동에 참여하였던 재난심리지원기관 및 지역사회기관, 전문가단체 등 9개 단체, 12명의 실무자를 대상으로 심층면접을 실시하였고, 이를 녹취하여 분석하였다. 면접내용을 분석한 결과, 25개의 하위범주가 추출되었으며, 이는 다시 11개의 상위범주로 기술되었다. 상위범주는 실무자차원, 심리지원기관차원, 지역사회기관차원, 운영체계차원의 4개의 주제로 구분되었다. 구체적으로 ① 실무자 차원 - 공장의 부속품처럼 느껴지는 심리지원활동, ② 재난심리지원기관 차원 - 사전 준비 부족 속에서 고군분투한 기관들, ③ 재난심리지역사회기관차원 - ‘참여’는 있었으나 ‘협력’은 부족했던 재난심리지원현장 ④ 재난심리지원운영체계 차원 - 시행착오에서 벗어났으나 여전히 쉽지 않은 재난심리지원체계 구축으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 국내 재난심리지원서비스 개선을 위한 방안을 제시하였다. The purpose of this study is to examine the current status of Disaster Psychological Support Services in Korea based on the experience of service providers employed upon the Pohang earthquake on November 15, 2017. To this end, in-depth interviews were performed with 12 service providers from 9 groups, including disaster psychological support services institutions, local social institutions, and expert groups, who participated in the disaster psychological support services upon the Pohang earthquake. The interview was recorded and later analyzed. Analysis of interview contents generated 25 subcategories, which were again described as 11 higher categories. Higher categories were divided into four themes; service provider level, psychological support services institution level, local social institution level, and operational system. The details for each of the themes are ① service provider level - service providers feeling as if they become a part of a big factory that offers psychological support services, ② disaster psychological support services institution level - institutions struggled through amid the insufficient prior preparation, ③ local social institutions for disaster psychological support - disaster psychological support site with ‘participation’, but without ‘cooperation,’④ disaster psychological support services operational system - evolved from trial and error but still a long way ahead till the establishment of a system for disaster psychological support services. Based on the above, this study suggests the improvement plan for disaster psychological support services in Korea.

Integrated approach of finding effective nematicidal agents to control the pine wood nematode from foreign plants and the associated living organisms

Kwang-Hyun Baek,Jinhee Choi,Jinhee Choi,Seon Keun Lee,Sang-Tae Seo,Sang-Hyun Koh 한국응용곤충학회 2018 한국응용곤충학회 학술대회논문집 Vol.2018 No.10

Pine tree, a dominant species in the flora of Korea is the most beloved tree in Korea. However, recent outbreak of pine wilt disease caused by the pine wood nematode (PWN) Bursaphelenchus xylophilus threatens the vegetation of Pinus species seriously. Furthermore, Pinus densiflora and P. thunbergii, the predominant species in Korea forest are highly susceptible to PWN. Therefore, there has been an urgent demand for the development of a new nematocidal compounds to control PWN, which spurred the national research for the development of new compounds. To find novel sources for nematocidal agents, we used various plant resources for the development. In addition to the foreign plant extracts themselves, we also used the extracts of endophytes composed of over 300 endophytic fungi and 1,000 endophytic bacteria from plants which was reported to contain nematocidal activity. Several extracts of endophytes and plant extracts contained strong nematocidal activity, and the resources are analyzed to identify the active nematocidal compounds. These integrated approach of finding effective nematocidal compounds from plants could be a novel way to elucidate the sources for brand-new nematocidal agents.
