The purpose of this study was to analyze on the relations of motivation system about science learning and science achievement. TIMSS 2007 was selected and translated for science achievement test. After that, fourth-grade 496 students and eighth-grade 425 students were required to accomplish the questionnaire on behavioral inhibition/activation system about science learning(SL-BIS/BAS) and science achievement. There were negative correlation with SL-BIS and science achievement, and positive correlation with SL-BAS and science achievement. In addition, two systems account for 12% of science achievement. These results would be helpful for teachers to understand the difference about motivation by students' variables and to make a plan for the appropriate strategies for learners.

Background/Aims: Endoscopic therapy for neoplastic Barrett's esophagus (BE) has become the standard of care over the past two decades. In clinical practice, we regularly encounter patients who fail to achieve complete squamous epithelialization of the esophagus. Although the therapeutic strategies in the individual stages of BE, dysplasia, and esophageal adenocarcinoma are well studied and largely standardized, the problem of inadequate healing after endoscopic therapy is only marginally considered. This study aimed to shed light on the variables influencing inadequate wound healing after endoscopic therapy and the effect of bile acid sequestrants (BAS) on healing. Methods: Retrospective analysis of endoscopically treated neoplastic BE in a single referral center. Results: In 12.1% out of 627 patients, insufficient healing was present 8 to 12 weeks after previous endoscopic therapy. The average follow-up duration was 38.8±18.4 months. Complete healing was achieved in 13 patients already after intensifying proton pump inhibitor therapy. Out of 48 patients under BAS, 29 patients (60.4%) showed complete healing. An additional eight patients (16.7%) improved, but only partial healing was achieved. Eleven (22.9%) patients showed no response to BAS augmented therapy. Conclusions: In cases of insufficient healing even under exhaustion of proton pump inhibitors, treatment with BAS can be an option as an ultimate healing attempt.

This study aims to investigate the relationship between personality, especially temperament and subjective well-being. The participants were 681 college students (211 males and 470 females), whose ages ranged from 17 to 37 (M=20.91, SD=2.36). The instruments utilized in the present study were Korean Version of BAS/BIS Scale, The Big Five Locator, Satisfaction with Life Scale, Life Satisfaction Motivation Scale, Life Satisfaction Expectancy Scale, Emotion Frequency Test, and Subjective Happiness Scale. Result indicated that women expected more positive future than men did, while no gender differences were found in any other well-being variables. Correlational analyses revealed that emotional stability and extroversion were closely associated with life satisfaction, happiness, positive and negative emotion, whereas behavioral activation system (BAS) and behavioral inhibition system (BIS) were more closely associated with motivation to live and expectancy of satisfactory life. There was close relationship between conscientiousness and subjective well-being, because they were college students. As a internal factor, personality was better predictor for subjective well-being of female students. For instance, it accounted for around 35% variance of female's subjective happiness. The present findings reiterate the role of personality in quality of life, and it was discussed with characteristics of subjects, situational factors, and previous studies.

This study analyzed the content of eight biogenic amines (BAs), including histamine, in 198 fishery products (121 school-meal products and 77 distributed products) in Korea in 2019. Changes in BA content according to time, temperature, and salt treatment in Japanese Spanish mackerel, chub mackerel, and salmon were also observed. The average histamine content of 198 fishery products was 0.4±2.3 mg/kg, and all were within histamine criteria (200 mg/kg or less). As a result, the margin of exposure (MOE) was calculated to evaluate the risk of fishery products, and school-meal fishery products were evaluated as safe with a MOE of 1 or more. At 30℃, the histamine content of the fish increased rapidly to 144 mg/kg (Japanese Spanish mackerel, 36 h), and 308 mg/kg (chub mackerel, 24 h). When the Japanese Spanish mackerel, chub mackerel, and salmon were stored at 4℃, histamine was not detected for 3 days, and it was not detected for 14 days at -20℃. The BA content (histamines, etc.) of salt-treated Japanese Spanish mackerel and chub mackerel was lower than that of fish not treated with salt.

본 실험은 청각 사상관련전위(ERP)를 이용하여 다양한 성격 특질 모형들의 생물학적 근거와, 구조의 공통점과 차이점을 명확히 하기 위해서 설계되었다. 48명의 대학생 피험자들에게 4가지 성격 측정 검사(NEO-PI-R, EPQ-R, BIS/BAS 척도, IVE)를 시행하고, 이어 두 종류의 청각 자극 세트(50ms와 300ms)를 이용한 오드볼 과제를 통해 ERP를 측정하였다. 설문지 간의 상관과, 설문지와 ERP 내외생적 구성 요소 간의 상관, 그리고 그 상관의 두피 분포 양상을 통합적으로 고려하여 해석하였다. 각 성격 검사의 외향성 척도에 해당한다 할 수 있는 E, E, BAS-FUN은 양성 모두에서 높은 수준의 설문지 척도 간 정적 상관을 보였으나, 50ms 자극으로 유발된 P3 진폭은 E와 BAS-FUN에 대해서만 유의하게 높은 상관을 나타내었다. 이 결과는 Eysenck의 모델과 일견 일치하는 결과이지만, 그가 개발한 EPQ-R의 외향성 척도(E) 보다는 오히려 다른 척도들이 뇌파에 반영된 성격의 생물학적 기제를 측정하기 위한 적절한 도구일 수도 있음을 시사한다. 신경증적 경향성을 반영하는 N과 N 척도는 50ms 자극에 대한 여성 피험자의 N1, P2 진폭과 유의한 상관을 보였다. 그러나 이론적으로 두 척도에 등가적인 것으로 예상되었던 BIS 척도는 설문지 간 상관이나 ERP 요소와의 상관에서 모두 유의한 결과를 보이지 않았다. Eysenck가 성격의 세 번째 축(차원)으로 제시했던 P(정신병적 경향성) 역시 여성 피험자들에게서 두드러지는 설문지 간 상관을 보였으나, 300ms 자극에 대한 P2 진폭과의 정적인 상관은 양성을 합한 자료에서만 발견되었다. 여성의 상관 분포는 비록 통계적으로 유의한 수준에는 이르지 못하였으나, 양성 자료의 분포와 유사함이 확인되었다. 이 실험의 결과는 P3 진폭과 외향성 간의 부적인 상관 관계를 보고하였던 기존 연구들을 지지한다. 또한 본 실험에서 확인된 Eysenck 모델의 신경증적 경향성이나 정신병적 경향성이 ERP의 비교적 초기에 나타나는 외생적 구성 요소들(N1, P2)과의 상관 양상은, P3 요소에 집중하였던 기존 연구들이 외향성 이외의 차원으로 일관된 결과를 얻어내지 못했던 이유를 설명해줄 수 있을 것이다. 또한 성격 차원과 그것을 지표 하는 ERP 구성 요소 간의 관계를 해석할 때에 성별이나 유발 자극의 속성을 고려해야 함을 보여준다.

Ten major residual biogenic amines including toxic histamine and tyramine were investigated in the plant-based minor Korean fermented food. From the analyses of pickled vegetables, fermented vegetable extracts, fermented tea, black garlic and herbal rice wines, more than 100 mg/kg of histamine were found in pickled soy leaf and pickled mulberry leaf, and also over 1,000 mg/kg of total biogenic amines were found in pickled soy leaf. No sample was found over in black garlic, fermented tea, fermented vegetable extracts and herbal rice wine, less than 100 mg/kg of histamine and/or 1,000 mg/kg of total biogenic amines were observed. Interestingly, all the tested rice wines were found to be over 100 mg/kg of agmatine residue.

Although it is known that there are personality characteristic variances in the sensitivity to environmental feedback, the trait individual difference has scarcely been explored in the context of recognition memory decision. The present study investigated this issue by examining the relationship between the feedback-based adaptive flexibility of recognition criterion positioning and personality differences in general sensitivity to non-laboratory outcomes. Experiment 1 demonstrated that veridical feedback itself had little effect on the recognition decision criterion whereas Experiment 2 demonstrated that biased feedback manipulations selectively restricted to high confidence errors, induced shifts even in the overall Old/New category criterion. Critically, individual differences in stable personality characteristic linked to reward seeking(Behavioral Activation System-BAS) and anxiety avoidance (Behavioral Inhibition System-BIS) has been shown to predict the sensitivity of subjects to this form of feedback-induced criterion learning. This data further support the idea that incremental reinforcement-based learning mechanism not often considered important during explicit recognition decisions may play a key role in criterion setting.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Cheonggukjang is a traditional fermented soybean paste with significant health-promoting effects. On the other hand, there have been insufficient studies on the safety and efficacy of Cheonggukjang, which is produced using traditional methods containing toxins and biogenic amines (BAs). This study compared the laxative effect of Cheonggukjang, containing high or low levels of toxins and BAs (HTBC or LTBC) in a loperamide (Lop)-induced constipation mouse model. MATERIALS/METHODS: To induce constipation, Lop (5 mg/kg) was administered orally to ICR mice twice a day for 4 days, and the dose was increased to 8 mg/kg after a 3-day rest period. Cheonggukjang (500 mg/kg, HTBC, or LTBC respectively) was administered for four weeks before the Lop treatment. RESULTS: The number of stools, fecal weight, water contents, gastrointestinal transit, and histological alterations were recovered significantly in the HTBC or LTBC groups. HTBC and LTBC administration did not induce significant changes in body weight, dietary intake, and behavior. The opioid-receptor downstream signaling pathway in colon tissues was also evaluated. The c-Kit, stem cell kinase, and mitogen-activated protein kinases subfamilies, including extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2, c-Jun N-terminal kinases, and p38, were all downregulated in the HTBC or LTBC-administered mice colon compared to the Lop group. CONCLUSION: These results show that Cheonggukjang, containing high levels of toxins and BAs, have a similar laxative effect in a mouse model of Lop-induced constipation.
