Panax ginseng has often been suggested as a geriatric restorative. This study is a double blind crossover trial to test whether ginseng can improve function in subjects with the depression and reduced abilities associated with senescence. 49 screened subjects were given 1500 mg Korean Red ginseng and identical placebo each for ten days, with a washout period in between the dosages. Standard tests of mental function, neuromuscular reflexes, responsiveness, mood and well being were used. The subjects were somewhat better at the co-ordination and speed test ('number copying') but tests of concentration and memory ('Concentration', 'Paired Association', 'Digit Span' and 'Object Learning') gave equivocal results. There were small improvements in mood and well being ('Life Satisfaction' and 'General Health Questionnaire') while the subjects indicated increased energy, alertness and less sleep, but also less happiness on the daily analogue scales. The major result was a highly significant improvement in reactivity, speed and co-oridnation at the tapping test, and the visual, auditory and disjunctive reaction timer. These are the most objective and accurate tests used in this trial. It is therefore concluded that ginseng can increase function in senile individuals. This effect is most easily visualisable in objective psychophysical tests, rather than the more subjective memory and concentration tests.

In this paper, a selective visual attention module based on motion stimuli is introduced for the purpose of detecting ROI(region of interest) or FOA(focus of attention) in motion pictures. Analysis of motion fields in our approach is in direct contrast to some of the previous studies of selective visual attention module. Motion that presents temporal visual saliency in an aspect between two successive frames is analyzed based on psychological studies in 'DORF(double opponent receptive fields)' and 'NF(noise filtration)' in MT(middle temporal cortex). Analyzed results are integrated based on the theory of 'motion integration' in MT to obtain a single conspicuous region. Experiments through a human subjective evaluation showed generally accepted results.

The purpose of this study was to examine the dual mediating effects of self-compassion and gratitude between perceived stress and insomnia in college students. For this study, 330 undergraduate students from Gyeongsang-do and Jeolla-do were surveyed about perceived stress, insomnia severity, self compassion, and gratitude. Regression, SPSS Macros, and bootstrapping methods were applied to verify the dual mediation effects. The results of this study were as follows. First, the positive effect of the perceived stress on the insomnia was observed to be significant. Second, self-compassion partially mediated the relationship between perceived stress and insomnia. Third, gratitude partially mediated the relationship between perceived stress and insomnia. Lastly, the perceived stress indirectly influenced insomnia through the dual mediation effect of self-compassion and gratitude. Focusing on these results, we discussed that stress management is important to prevent and alliviate insomnia of undergraduates and that intervention to promote self compassion and gratitude is needed.

This study aims to identify the relationship between outcome expectancy and illegal use of music sources, and examined the parallel double mediating model of reward sensitivity and social dilution of responsibility on that relationship. To achieve the purpose this study, data were collected from 302 male and female high school students living in Seoul metropolitan area, and a double mediating effect was analysed with PROCESS Macro 3.5 Model 4. Results indicated that outcome expectancy was positively correlated with reward sensitivity, social dilution of responsibility, and illegal use of music sources of high school students, whereas reward sensitivity and social dilution of responsibility were positively correlated with illegal use of music sources. This study found that reward sensitivity and social dilution of responsibility were mediating outcome expectancy and illegal use of music sources in parallel. These findings suggest that psychological mechanisms lead adolescents use illegal music sources might be important, and provide useful information for making strategies to prevent adolescents' uses of illegal music sources.

This study aimed to provide basic data for the promotion of flourishing by analyzing whether welfare and hope mediated and double-mediated in the relationship between boss incivility and flourishing with 400 childcare teachers. The subjects of the survey were collected through offline questionnaires. The data were analysed using SPSS PC+ Win ver. 25.0 and PROCESS macro. Frequency, reliability, correlation, and double mediation effect analysis were performed. As a result of the study, first, experience of incivility from bosses showed a negative correlation with welfare, hope, and flourishing. welfare, hope and flourishing showed a positive correlation with each other. Second, welfare and hope played a double mediating role in the relationship between boss and co-worker incivility and flourishing. Welfare and hope played a role in partially offsetting the negative (-) effect of incivility on flourishing. The conclusion of this study confirmed that the promotion of flourishing can be promoted by using the dual mediating role of welfare and hope.

Objective : This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of the early maladaptive schemas in patients with panic disorder. Methods : Patients (n=35) included people who had met the DSM-IV-TR criteria for panic disorder. The normal control group (n=35) were those people who had no psychiatric disorder and had never experienced panic attack. The early maladaptive schemas and the severity of depression and anxiety were assessed by the Young Schema Questionnaire Short-form (YSQ-SF), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI). Results : The scores on the STAI-S, STAI-T, and BDI were significantly higher in the patient group. Compared to the control group, the scores of vulnerability to harm and illness, and abandonment/instability schemas were significantly higher in the patient group. In the patient group, defectiveness/shame and subjugation schemas were found to predict BDI, dependent/incompetence, abandonment/instability schemas were found to predict STAI-S, and vulnerability to harm and illness, and abandonment/instability schemas were found to predict STAI-T. In normal controls, failure and insufficient self-control/self-discipline, failure, and emotion inhibition schemas were found to predict BDI, STAI-T, and STAI-S. Conclusions : Vulnerability to harm and illness and abandonment/instability schemas may be characteristic schema in patients with panic disorder.

The purpose of this study is to examine the mediating effects of self-acceptance and counselor activity self-efficacy on the relationship between counselor's perfectionism and psychological burnout. For this purpose, 325 data samples were collected from the counselors who are currently working. The results of this study are as follows. Self-oriented perfectionism had a significant positive correlation with other-oriented perfectionism, socially-prescribed perfectionism, and psychological burnout, while it is negatively correlated with counselor activity self-efficacy. Other-oriented perfectionism showed a significant positive correlation with socially-prescribed perfectionism and a negative correlation with self-acceptance and counselor activity self-efficacy. Socially-prescribed perfectionism was in a significant negative correlation with self-acceptance and counselor activity self-efficacy. Self-acceptance showed a significant positive correlation with counselor activity self-efficacy and a negative correlation with psychological burnout. The counselor activity self-efficacy was negatively correlated with psychological burnout. self-acceptance and counselor activity self-efficacy were identified as double mediation variables between counselor's perfectionism and psychological burnout. The results of this study can be used in the education scene to enhance the understanding of the psychological burnout of the counselor and deal with it. Based on these results, the implications and limitations of this study were discussed and suggestions for further research were made.

As an effort to further extend the existing understanding on the Psychology of Working Theory, this study examined gender differences in the paths to the attainment of decent work with Korean emerging adults. A total of 311 South Korean employees (mean age = 25.96, men = 94, women = 217) completed online questionnaires. We found that economic constraints inversely predicted work volition and career adaptability, which were positively relatedin turn, led to decent work. The overall indirect effect of work volition and career adaptability between economic constraints and decent work was significant., hHowever, the specific indirect effect of work volition and career adaptability was not significant. Further analyses showed a gender difference in the paths. Specifically, economic constraint was significantly negatively associated with work volition, and work volition predicted decent work only for women, but not for men. Moreover, economic constraint was significantly inversely associated with career adaptability, and career adaptability positively predicted decent work only for men, but not for women. Work volition mediated between economic constraints and decent work for women, while career adaptability had a mediating effect for men. It suggests that career resources for obtaining a decent work may be distinctive by genderdifferent groups.
