In this study of mathematics anxiety, mathematical learning style, and grade in school, 1,264 elementary students completed the Mathematics Anxiety Scale(Lee, 2005) and the Mathematical Learning Style Scale(Yang & Whang, 2005) for elementary school students. Analysis of their responses showed that anxiety about mathematics increased with grade in school. Among sub-factors of mathematics anxiety, the subject itself, learners' attitude, and learning environment increased the anxiety of upper grade students. Motivation, initiative, and regulation styles of learning mathematics were found to be important factors in the mathematics anxiety of elementary school students.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the level of uncertainty and anxiety in families of hospitalized children. Data were collected through self-report questionnaires which were constructed to include parent's perception of uncertainty and state anxiety. The subjects consisted of 126 families of hospitalized children in one university-affiliated hospital in Daegu. The data were analyzed by the SPSS program. The results were as follows; 1. The mean score of uncertainty was 64.70 (Range=31-95). The mean scores of subsets of the uncertainty were followed as: lack of clarity (2.59), unpredictability (2.46), lack of information (2.22) and ambiguity (2.14). 2. The mean score of state anxiety was 47.93 (Range=20-67). 3.The level of uncertainty was positively correlated to the level of state anxiety. 4. The level of anxiety was different depending on their religion and monthly income. The above findings indicated that the level of uncertainty and the state anxiety in families of hospitalized children were positively correlated. Therefore, nursing intervention for reducing uncertainty and anxiety and improving coping method should be provided for families of hospitalized children.

소아, 청소년기에 발생하는 양극성장애는 주의력결핍/과잉행동장애, 행동장애 뿐만 아니라 불안장애도 중복진단 비율이 높다. 불안장애 중 강박장애, 사회공포증, 공황장애, 분리불안장애가 많이 공존한다고 보고 되었지만 불안장애와 양극성장애 발생사이의 시간적 관련성에 관한 전향적이면서 믿을만한 연구는 드물다. 본 저자는 양극성장애에 선행한 불안증상에 대해 항우울제를 투여하였을 때 발생한 조증삽화 2예를 보고하고자 한다. 기분변화의 과거력이나 양극성장애의 가족력이 없어도 선행된 불안증상에 대해 항우울제를 사용할 때는 조증삽화의 가능성을 염두에 두고 조심스럽게 처방해야 될 필요성이 있으며 향후 소아, 청소년 양극성장애와 불안장애 사이의 시간적 연관성과 약물학적 치료 지침에 대해 포괄적이며 전향적인 연구가 필요할 것이다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationships which may exist between interpersonal relationships, depression, anxiety, and self-acceptance. This study also examines whether self-acceptance has any moderating effects on the relationships between interpersonal relationships, depression, and anxiety. The subjects of this study consisted of 400 high school students and the study focused on reporting their levels of interpersonal relationships, depression, anxiety, and self acceptance. The results indicate that depression and anxiety are negatively related to interpersonal relationships and self-acceptance. Interpersonal relationships are positively related to self acceptance. In other words, the more negative the interpersonal relationships, the greater the levels of depression and anxiety. The results also indicate that self-acceptance functions as a protective factor for high school students who have problems with depression and anxiety in their interpersonal relationships.

Objectives: Childhood adversity is a risk factor for anxiety symptoms, but it affects anxiety symptoms in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The current study aimed to examine the association between childhood adversity and anxiety symptoms in participants with and without ADHD. Methods: Data were obtained from a school-based epidemiological study of 1017 randomly selected children and adolescents. The ADHD and non-ADHD groups were divided using the Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children Predictive Scale (DPS). The DPS was also used to assess comorbidities such as anxiety and mood disorders. The childhood adversities were assessed using the Early Trauma Inventory Self Report-Short Form, and the anxiety symptoms were assessed using the Screen for Child Anxiety Related Disorders. Linear and logistic regression models were used to investigate the association between childhood adversity and anxiety in the ADHD and non-ADHD groups with adjustments for age and sex. Results: This study found that the ADHD group did not show any significant association between anxiety symptoms and childhood adversities, whereas the non-ADHD group always showed a significant association. In a subgroup analysis of the non-ADHD group, the normal group without any psychiatric disorders assessed with DPS demonstrated a statistically significant association between childhood adversities and anxiety symptoms. These results were consistent with the association between childhood adversities and anxiety disorders assessed using DPS, as shown by logistic regression. Conclusion: The association between anxiety symptoms and childhood adversities statistically disappears in ADHD; ADHD may mask or block the association. Further longitudinal research is necessary to investigate this relationship.
