The purpose of this study was to investigate factors affecting body image in adolescents. The subject of study is 140 adolescents in the three middle schools from the J city. The data were collected using a self-report questionnaire from March 15 to March 29, 2017. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, T-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression with SPSS 20.0 program. Body image was found to be in a significant positive correlation with family strength and self-esteem. The result of the multiple regression indicates the self-esteem(${\beta}=.24$, p<.05), family strength(${\beta}=.19$, p<.05) and gender(${\beta}=.16$, p<.05) predict 17.9% (F=11.10, p<.001) of body image. Therefore, it is necessary to develop self-esteem and family strength strategy intervention program for establishing a right body image of adolescents.

The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for improving life satisfaction by verifying the mediating effect of self-esteem in the relationship between physical health awareness, depression, self-esteem, and life satisfaction of middle-aged. Analysis data were collected through online and offline questionnaires for 320 middle-aged people for 10 days from August 15, 2021, and the SPSS WIN 23.0 program was used. As for the analysis method, frequency analysis, descriptive statistical analysis, and correlation analysis Baron & Kenny (1986) were performed in three stages of regression analysis. The research results showed First, that physical health awareness and depression of middle-aged people had a statistically significant effect on life satisfaction. Second, in the relationship between physical health awareness and life satisfaction, self-esteem showed a partial mediating effect. Third, in the relationship between depression and life satisfaction, self-esteem showed a partial mediating effect. In other words, in order to improve life satisfaction for middle-aged people, the basis for improving physical health awareness and self-esteem and reducing depression was prepared, and implications and suggestions for practice were presented.

본 연구의 목적은 고령화 사회로 가고 있는 현 상황에서 여러 가지 만성질환이 대두되고 있고, 이에 따른 신체활동의 중요성이 대두되고 있다. 하지만 우리나라의 경우 신체활동 실천율이 낮은 것이 현실이다. 신체활동의 실천율을 향상시키기 위해서는 신체활동을 결정짓는 요인들에 대해 파악이 필요하며 이번 연구에서는 낮은 운동 실천율과 운동방식의 성격을 볼 때 지역사회의 건강생활 실천을 위해 신체활동을 늘이기 위한 구체적 전략이 필요하고, 국민건강증진사업의 중요한 영역의 하나로 보건사업 영역에서 운동 모형을 개발하는 연구가 시급한 과제가 되겠다. 이에 앞서 지역사회 인구의 운동실태와 운동 환경여건을 조사하는 것이 선행되어야 하겠다. 이번 연구는 일개 광역시 주민들을 대상으로 일반적 특성 및 건강행동관련 특성을 조사하고, 또한 신체활동의 정도를 조사하여 실태파악 및 관련된 연관성을 알아보고자 시행하였다.

This study has researched and analyzed the relation among adolescents metabolic syndrome, dietary life, physical activity and mental health using $7^{th}$ National Nutrition Survey of $1^{st}$ year(2016) to provide the base data for the prevention of adolescent metabolic syndrome and the promotion of mental health. The subjects have been aimed at 13-18 year-old adolescents. The normal group consists of 201 males(56.4%) and 187 females(47.4%) and the adolescents with metabolic syndrome are composed of 9 males(56.4%) and 6 females(43.6%), totally 403 subjects. As a result of analyzing on the relation among adolescents' metabolic syndrome, dietary life, physical activity and mental health, the main influencing factors of metabolic syndrome are as follows. First, with regard to physical features, as BMI increases 1, the prevalence rate of metabolic syndrome multiplies 1.746 times. Second, when eating breakfast once to twice a week, the prevalence rate of metabolic syndrome decreases 0.87 times. Third, with regard to physical activity, as usual sitting hours a day increase 1 hour, the prevalence rate of metabolic syndrome multiplies 1.054 times. Fourth, the relation between metabolic syndrome and mental health of adolescents is not significant at all. Thus, the further study on metabolic syndrome focused on adolescents should be extended through the development of various variables of dietary life, physical activity and mental health focused on adolescents. In addition, the development of effective intervention program combining with dietary life, physical activity and mental health factors is necessary.

Objectives : We surveyed this study for knowing the relation within stress, depression and medical comorbidities, and finding the risk factors of major depression. Methods : 1764 subjects were enrolled from Jan. 2009 to Dec. 2009 who visit Korea University Guro hospital healthcare center. The subjects answered the questionnaire of PSS(Perceived Stress Scale), PHQ-9(Patient Health Questionnaire-9) and the demographic data. We categorized them as the stress group, depressive group, medical comorbidity group and analyzed the correlation analyses and logistic regression analyses. Results : 198 of 1764 subjects(11.8%) were applied to major depression, and the depressive group showed the higher mean stress score(23.19) and mean depression score(12.95) than the normal group. The total PHQ-9 score was increased by perceiving more stress, having more medical comorbidities. The subjects with female, visiting due to recent health problems, irregular exercise, current smoking, history of angina and cerebrovascular disease showed the increased risk of major depression. Conclusions : In this study, we find the PSS, PHQ-9 were valuable for mental health screening in healthcare center. As perceiving more stress and having more medical comorbidity, risk of major depression were increased. Accordingly the individuals with medical diseases or unhealthy lifestyle would need the mental health screen.

As a result, first, the mean scores of the subjects were 2.33 in depression, 1.94 in anxiety, and 1.63 in somatic symptoms. Their depression, anxiety and somatic symptoms were higher as their sex and perceived self-efficacy. Second, college life characteristics explained 46.1% of variance in depression and 26.3% of variance in anxiety. college life characteristics, depression and anxiety explained 35.8% of variance in somatic symptoms among freshmen. These results will be used for developing programs to increase mental and physical health and to adapt in college life for freshmen.

스트레스 수준이 논을 것으로 예상되는 공군사관학교 수험생의 신체검사 결과로부터 신체건강 지표인 혈액 내 생화학적 요인들과 정신건강 지표인 다면 인성검사 점수를 추출하여 통계적 상관성 및 유의성을 비교 분석하였다 사관생도들 중 $10\%$의 표본을 추출하여 사관생도와 수험생 집단간의 특성 비교를 위한 비교집단으로 이용하였다. 수험생과 사관생도 집단 간의 특성 요인 비교는 Mann-whitney U 검정과 Kruskal-Wallis 검정을 이용하였다. 수험생 집단 내에서 혈중 요인 및 정신건강 지표인 MMPI 점수는 정상범주에 있었고 두 요인 간 상관성은 발견할 수 없었다. 그러나 사관생도와 수험생 집단 간의 특성 요인들에 대한 유의성 검정 결과, 특히 2학년생도들의 혈액 내 혈구 수 및 활동성 또는 적극성과 관련된 MMPI 하위척도에서 수험생 집단과 매운 유의한 차이를 보이는 특이한 현상을 발견할 수 있었고 이에 대한 해석을 언급하였다.

Due to the rapid increase of the elderly population in Korea, there is a growing interest in 'Healthy Aging.' In this trend, it is important to identify the relationship between their lifestyle factors and quality of life. The purpose of this study was to identify the association of physical activity level, sedentary behavior and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among Korean older adults. A total of 4,589 older adults at the Sixth and Seventh National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey was analyzed. The results showed that better HRQoL was observed among physically active older female, which was more evident among physically active female with central obesity while no such relationship was observed among older male. On the other hand, higher sedentary time was associated with lower HRQoL in both male and female subjects. Our analyses indicated that central obesity was closely related with HRQoL regardless of their physical activity levels in female subjects. Further analyses investigating association between sub-dimension of HRQoL and sub-domain of physical activity showed that higher transport physical activity was associated with better anxiety/depression score and higher sedentary time was associated with poorer score on mobility, usual activities among male and mobility, self-care, usual activity and anxiety/depression among female. Our finding suggests that physical activity level, sedentary behavior and central obesity associated with HRQoL.
