Objective : To present effects of depression, optimism and gratitude on suicidal ideation of patients with depressive disorders. Methods : Using analyses of covariance (ANCOVA), scores on the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), Life Orientation Test-Revised (LOT-R), and Gratitude Questionnaire (GQ-6) were compared between depressive disorder patients with higher and lower levels of suicidal ideations. A linear regression model was fitted to detect independent correlates for suicidal ideations. Results : Significantly greater level of depression and lower level of gratitude were characterized by depressive disorder patients with higher level of suicidal ideations. The fitted regression model presented that depression and gratitude were independent correlates for suicidal ideations in patients with depressive disorders. Conclusion : Our findings suggest that gratitude may be associated with lowering the level of suicidal ideation in patients with depression.

본 논문은 지금까지의 다문화가정 아동들을 대상으로 한 선행연구들은 대부분 다문화가정 아동들의 사회적 심리적 요인들과 그들의 학교적응에 영향을 주는 요인들을 중심으로 연구들이 수행되어 왔다는 점에 대한 문제의식에 기초하였다. 따라서 다문화가정 아동들의 정서 행동문제에 대한 연구는 선행연구와는 달리 부모의 갈등과 양육태도, 정서 행동으로서의 내재화와 외현화 그리고 학교생활과 관련된 학교적응과 또래관계에 대해서 단편적이고 개별적인 변수들만의 관계만 고려하는 것이 아니라 종합적인 차원에서 변수들 간의 구조적인 관계에 대한 실증적인 연구의 필요성을 제시하였다.

Using a statistical method, meta-analysis has advantages that prove intervention's amount and direction. Meta-analysis facilitates comprehensive analysis. Through the data collection, 33studies were selected and 92 effect size were calculated as analysis objects. The overall effect size of emotional intelligence program was 0.839. Depend on subordinate scope, the emotional cognition had the largest effect size. Next were the understanding domain, application domain, the regulation domain and the expression domain.

Present study was investigated to measure the influence of expectancy on emotional information processing. For inducing an expectancy for emotional stimulus, participants conducted three same blocks in which negative face was presented for prime in 75% of total trials(Group1) or three same blocks in which positive face was presented in 75% of total trials(Group2). We compared the means of RTs of two blocks conducted after and before these induction blocks. Results exhibited that participants in Group 1 allocated more attention after expectancy induction. This indicate that in normal population, the top-down processing like expectancy can influence emotional processing pattern related to negative information.

The study included 102 mothers of children with disabilities and the study was conducted from june to september in 2020 based on the questionnaire about the personality type and coping behavior. Personality types were evaluated using Enneagram, and coping behavior was evaluated using the Korean Coping Behavior Scale for Parents of Children and Adolescents with Disabilities As a result of the study, the belly type was the most common personality type of mothers with disabilities. As for coping behavior, active problem-solving for children with disabilities showed the highest score. As a result of analyzing the coping behavior according to the personality type of mothers of children with disabilities, there were significant differences in the coping behavior, strengthening marital cooperation, and pursuing social-emotional support. As a result of post-verification, there were significant differences between heart type and belly type in coping behavior, strengthening marital cooperation, and pursuing social-emotional support, and heart type scored higher than belly type.

We aimed to provide evidences for developing non-pharmacological intervention in older adults with Mild Cognitive Impairment(MCI) by integrated literature review. The final 16 papers were selected as a result of an integrated literature analysis. All of them are focused on strengthening cognitive activities, while Korean studies have often merged emotional activities such as music therapy and laughter therapy rather than physical activities such as exercise therapy, international studies have combined physical activities rather than emotional activities. The effects of non-pharmacological intervention differed according to the outcome variables. The primary variables were cognitive function and depression, and secondary variables were found to have effects on physical function, activities of daily living (ADL), and self-efficacy. This study contributes to a multidisciplinary approach that can be applied in the clinical field through the development of various non-pharmaceutical intervention for the prevention of dementia in the older adults with MCI.
