The purpose of this study is to develop Music Recall Technique for affect modification using programmed series of classical music, and further to apply the technique as therapeutic intervention for clients with anorexia nervosa. Music Recall Technique is composed of two sub-technique: first one is 'Music Recall(MR)' which is the way to reproduce of existing music on one's head and mind after listening to the music, and second intervention is 'Creative Music Recall(CMR)' which is the way to modify the exposed musical pieces or newly learned musical pieces. A client with anorexia nervosa with severe anxiety, anger and depression participated in this case study. The MRT is implemented in different stages pertaining to client's level of utilizing the music recall skill for the period of 10 sessions. Situations eliciting negative emotions were identified and music recalling was reinforced for the pertaining situation in order for the negative emotion to be coped and reduced by the end of session time. The client participated for 10 sessions, and was asked to fill out self-report on the affect change using MRT. Visual Analogue Scale was used for pre and post test for each session to measure the self perceived level of negative affect. State-trait anxiety inventory was also used to measure the anxiety level following the implementation of MRT. As results, negative emotions, such as anxiety, anger and depression were modified during stimulative-sedative music recall process. These negative emotions were decreased mostly during stimulative MR, especially, in the beginning process. Each negative affect on negative situation measured by VAS during each and entire session have been decreased. Negative emotion measured by state-trait anxiety inventory, state-trait anger expression inventory, and hopelessness-depression inventory were decreased as well. The results suggest that stimulative music using contemporary classic music was effective in reduction and modification of negative affect such as anxiety, anger and depression. It shows that Music Recall Technique can be a meaningful intervention for affect modification, and further it can be utilized as self-help in the outside of music therapy setting.

최근 의학 및 게임 분야에서 뉴로 피드백에 관한 연구들이 활발하다. 뉴로 피드백이란 뇌의 전기적 활동을 뜻하는EEG(Electroencephalogram)을 대상으로 하는 바이오피드백(biofeedback) 시스템의 일종이다. 좌 우뇌의 불균형은 불안과 우울 등의 정서적 장애를 초래한다. 본 논문에서는 좌, 우뇌 활성도를 대칭적으로 향상시켜 뇌기능의 최적화를 위한 시스템을 제안하며 뇌파를 분석하여 정서 상태 파악 후 규칙적 훈련을 통한 우울, 불안 등의 정서적 문제를 개선하는 뉴로 피드백 시스템 개발에 대한 결과를 보고한다. 실험을 통한 시스템의 검증으로 3주간 진행한 훈련 결과를 비교하였으며 그 증가율을 살펴보았다. 1주차와 3주차의 데이터를 비교해본 결과 평균적으로 26.18%의 증가율을 보였고 좌, 우뇌의 활성도의 대칭이 향상된 것을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between emotional traumatic experience, stress, depression, and anxiety and to identify factors influencing suicide ideation. Data collection was carried out using a questionnaire survey administered to students from four health colleges in B city and a total of 289 questionnaires. Collected data were analyzed by frequency and percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis using the SPSS/WIN program. The results show that there were significant differences in emotional trauma according to the general characteristics of the study subjects (p=.005) and stress related to grades (p=.029). Depression showed significant differences for gender (p=.020), religion (p=.022), and anxiety related to gender (p=.047). Suicidal thinking was not significantly different from the general characteristics. The suicidal ideation of the subjects was significantly correlated with emotional trauma (p<.001), stress (p<.001), depression (p<.001) and anxiety (p<.001). Factors affecting the suicidal ideation of the subjects were emotional trauma (t=4.117, p<.001), stress (t=2.909, p=.004), depression (t=3.421, p=.001), and anxiety (t=2.875, p=.004), and the explanatory power was 34.1%.

The survey was conducted online from April 6 to 13, 2020, and the results were analyzed using a total of 220 copies of the survey data, excluding insufficient surveys. As a result of the analysis, compared to the case where the self-elasticity is below average, the psychological emotion caused by COVID-19 as well as the depression of new students is statistically significant in all emotions such as anxiety, irritability, helplessness, anger, fear, confusion, and distrust. It was found to be higher. Based on these results, several roles and coping strategies were suggested to help students recover and maintain their psychological stability and mental health.

While depressives tend to be preoccupied with their own grief and the negative aspects, they might lack the capacity to interact with outside world. With the intention to determine whether depressives might have certain characteristics regarding empathic behavior, as behavior is highly based on responsiveness to others, we examined the relationship between emotional empathy and depression. In addition, we examined the mediating effect of self-criticism on the relationship between emotional empathy and depression. Data was collected from 146 online university students and analyzed using the correlation and multiple regression model. Results showed that perspective taking, which is the cognitive aspect of empathy, was negatively correlated with depression. Concerning the emotional aspects of empathy, both empathic responding and empathic concern were negatively correlated with depression, while personal distress was positively correlated with depression. Regression results, which set the empathy related variables as predicting variables, found perspective taking decreased depression, and personal distress enhanced depression. In addition, personal distress showed significant enhancing effect on depression and was completely mediated by self-criticism. With the result, implications and limitations of this study were discussed.
