Objectives The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between the chronotype and the burnout, so we investigated the mediating effects of the mediators such as perceived stress, stress response, and depression. Methods Employees working at Incheon Customs conducted a mental health self-examination through the internet. Among them, 174 people who agreed to the mental health survey participated in the study. Participants completed questionnaires including Composite Scale of Morningness (CSM), Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS), Stress Response Inventory (SRI), Maslach Burnout Inventory-General Survey (MBI-GS). Results Our results showed a higher degree of CES-D, SRI, exhaustion, and cynicism in evening and intermediate type compared to morning type, and a higher degree of professional efficacy in morning type compared to intermediate type. CSM was shown to have a direct effect on exhaustion and indirect effect through CES-D and SRI. CSM also had a direct effect on professional efficacy and had an indirect effect through the CES-D. However, CSM was found to have only indirect effects through the SRI for Cynicism. Conclusions In this study, individuals with evening type tend to experience a high degree of burnout (exhaustion, cynicism and professional efficacy) through the mediation effect of depression and stress response. Further study is necessary to reveal the effect of management of the depression and stress response in the employee with evening type.

경두개 직류전기자극(transcranial Direct Current Stimulation; tDCS)은 지각, 인지, 운동 등의 뇌기능 향상 및 발달 효과가 입증되며, 다양한 분야에서 활용 및 응용되는 비침습적 뇌자극술이다. tDCS 효과는 뇌의 해부학적 구조, 뇌의 노화 정도 등의 뇌신경활성화 특징에 따라 다르게 나타난다는 연구결과들이 보고되고 있다. 일주기 리듬(circadian rhythm)은 대략 하루 주기의 수면과 각성의 생리적 변화패턴을 의미하며 뇌신경활성화 상태는 일주기 리듬에 따라 다르게 나타난다. 일주기 유형(chronotype)은 하루 중에 발현되는 각성도의 크기에 따라 아침의 각성도가 큰 유형은 아침형으로 저녁의 각성도가 큰 유형은 저녁형으로 나누어진다. 본 연구는 일주기 리듬에 의해 변하는 뇌기능 특징이 tDCS 효과에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 한다. 총 20명의 건강한 성인 대상으로 실험을 진행하였고, 참가자들은 일주기 유형을 분류하기 위해 아침형-저녁형 설문지에 의해 주간형(아침형, 중간형)과 야간형(저녁형)으로 분류했다. 본 실험은 Zoom 프로그램을 이용하여 참가자와 실험자가 온라인으로 만나서 실험을 진행했다. 실험이 확정된 참가자는 실험자로부터 뇌파 기기, 뇌파 데이터를 획득하는 앱이 있는 핸드폰, 핸드폰 거치대, 뇌자극 기기의 사용방법에 대한 설명을 듣고 기기를 테스트해보고 기기를 전달받았다. 기기사용의 어려움을 가진 2명의 참가자는 대면 실험을 진행하여, 실험자가 기기작동을 하여 실험에 참여했다. 일주기 리듬의 상태에 따른 뇌자극 효과를 알아보기 위해 1주일 간격으로 아침과 저녁에 실험했으며, tDCS 자극 전과 후의 신경활성화 반응의 차이를 뇌파를 이용하여 측정하였다. 뇌자극에 의한 뇌기능 변화를 확인하기 위해 자극 전의 뇌파와 자극 후 뇌파가 다른 패턴을 보이며 분류가 잘되는 지를 예측 정확도로 분석했으며, 뇌기능 특징 변화가 일주기 리듬과 일주기 유형에 따라 다르게 나타나는지 확인하기 위해 각 조건의 분류조건(아침/저녁, 주간형/야간형)에서 추출된 주요 EEG 특성을 비교했다. 54개의 뇌파 특성값을 추출하여 SVM(Support Vector Machine) 기계학습 알고리즘으로 분류 모델을 구축하였고, 구축된 모델을 Leave-One-Out 교차검증(Leave-One-Out Cross-Validation)을 사용하여 자극 전과 후의 뇌파 반응을 예측하는지 평가하였고, 분류예측모델의 주요 예측 인자를 확인하는 주요 특성 분석을 진행하였다. 아침과 저녁의 tDCS에 따른 뇌파 특징을 분류하는 예측 정확도는 모두 98%로 나타났으며, 주간형의 아침 자극 조건과 저녁 자극 조건의 예측 정확도는 92%와 96%이며, 야간형의 아침자극 조건과 저녁 자극 조건의 예측 정확도는 모두 94%로 나타났다. 아침 자극 전과 후의 뇌파를 분류하는 상위 3개의 주요 EEG 특성결과는 주간형과 야간형에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 주간형은 좌측 측두 두정엽과 전전두엽의 뇌파 특성값이 나타났으며, 야간형은 측두 두정엽의 뇌파 특성값들만 나타났다. 저녁 자극전과 후의 뇌파를 분류하는 상위 3개의 주요 EEG 특성 결과 또한 주간형과 야간형에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 주간형은 우측 측두 두정엽과 좌측 전두엽의 뇌파 특성값이 나타났으며, 야간형은 측두 두정엽과 전두엽의 뇌파 특성값이 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구결과는 일주기 리듬과 유형에 따라 아침과 저녁의 뇌기능 특징이 다르게 나타나서 뇌자극 효과가 다르게 나타날 수 있음을 확인한 결과이다. 본 연구의 결과는 효과적인 뇌자극을 위해 개인의 뇌신경 활성화 상태 및 특징에 따라서 뇌자극 프로토콜을 조정할 필요성을 제시한다는 데에 의의를 찾을 수 있다.

Objective : Premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is known to reduce the quality of sleep and is associated with various psychiatric disorders. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship of PMS with depression, sleep qulity and sleep pattern in Korean female adolescents. Methods : Out of 867 high school female students, 400 female subjects were included in this study. All participants completed self-report questionnaires that included demographic variables, shortened premenstrual assessment form (SPAF), patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI), Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS), insomnia severity index (ISI) and Korean translation of composite scale (CS). A total of 394 individuals who completed the questionnaires were analyzed. Results : As score of SPAF, 143 subjects was defined PMDD group. They had more prevalence of eveningness, more depressive symptom, poorer sleep quality, and more excessive sleepiness than non-PMDD groups. Although the PMDD groups showed more menstrual dysmenorrhea, no difference was found in bleeding duration and cycle. PMS symptom had correlations with depression, poorer sleep quality and excessive sleepiness during the daytime. There was no difference in sleep duration between two groups, but PMS might have a relationship with eveningness of chronotype. Conclusions : Among Korean female high school students, the PMS might have an association with depression and poor sleep quality, and it might lead to daytime impairment due to excessive sleepiness. An appropriate evaluation of PMS could be helpful in determining the mental health condition of adolescents.

Anger is a multi-dimensional concept ranging from feeling irritable to violent aggression. A growing body of literature suggests the relevance of sleep in regard to anger. The current study aims to review previous studies on the association between anger and diverse aspects of sleep including sleep disruption, chronotype, sleep disorders and sleep deprivation. An association between sleep and anger has been observed starting in the early stage of life, with sleep of infants or toddlers affecting emotional and behavioral aspects of anger. However, the association between anger and sleep is not clear in adolescents and might be due to the effects of psychosocial factors on both sleep and anger during adolescence. Subjective but not objective sleep disturbances of adults have been also associated with anger. Evening types showed more anger, which might be mediated by psychological characteristics or social jet lag of evening people. Increased anger has also been found in those with insomnia, sleep apnea, or experimental sleep-deprivation. Previous studies have reported that diverse sleep disturbances are related to anger. Future study assessing the various sleep or circadian indices and considering the multidimensional aspects of anger are needed.

Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire (MEQ) of Horne & Ostberg(1976) was translated into a Korean version, and MEQ and life habit inventory was administrated with approximately 900 university students. The distribution of MEQ score was normal. Arising time and bedtine for weekdays and holidays came in the order of morning type, intermediate and evening-type. And the deviation for the evening-type was greatest. Also, the deviation of sleep length for the evening-type was greater than the morning- type. There were tendencies that the bed time and arising time of the male were slightly later than those of the female, and the sleep length of the male was a little longer than that of the female. It also appeared that the arising time was later in the male who completed the military services than those who did not in the chronotype. And the sleep length of the non-served male was longer than that of the served one. Such tendencies noticeably appeared especially the evening-type. The evening-type was subject to heavy variability in bedtime. arising time, and sleep length. The sleep latency of the evening- type was longer and mood on arising was worse. And the ratio of nap or light sleep was higher in these subjects than in others. These results suggested that evening-type students had more irregular and/or flexible sleep-wake habits than the morning-type.

Objectives Circadian rhythms have been known to have associations with psychiatric disorders and personality traits. The present study investigated the relationships between circadian typology and temperaments/characters in a non-clinical Korean population. Methods Two hundred six healthy Korean college students (male 109, female 97) participated in this study. The subjects completed the Composite Scale of Morningness for circadian typology and 140-item Temperament and Character Inventory-Revised-Short version (TCI-RS). Results Multivariate analyses of covariance showed a significant association between chronotypes and temperamental dimensions of the TCI-RS. Morning types were significantly associated with lower harm avoidance and higher persistence and self-directedness dimensions, compared to evening types and intermediate types. No interaction effects between sex and chronotypes were shown for temperamental dimensions. Conclusions The present findings suggest that high persistence and self-directedness characters are related to morning types and high harm avoidance temperament is more related to evening types.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between sleep timing and depressive mood in Korean adolescents. Methods: The study analyzed the data from the 2007~2015 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey. A total of 541,693 students in grades 7~12 were included in the final analysis. Multivariable logistic regression was used to examine their sleep timing and depressive mood, adjusted for sex, grade, region, socioeconomic status, academic performance, alcohol, smoking and physical activity. Sleep duration and sleep quality were also included in our model to identify whether or not the effect of sleep timing on depression is mediated by sleep duration or sleep quality. Results: The prevalence of depressive mood was 32.7% and the mean sleep timing was 12:13 AM. After adjustment for eligible covariates, the association between sleep timing and depressive mood showed a J-shaped curve. Adolescents who slept at 8 pm~10 pm were 39% more likely to be depressive (OR = 1.39, 95% CI 1.30~1.40) and at 3 am~ 4 am were 67% more likely to be depressive (OR=1.67, 95% CI 1.64~1.70) than adolescents who slept at 11 pm~12 am. These associations persisted after being adjusted for sleep duration and sleep quality. Conclusion: Sleep timing was related to depression in adolescents, independent of sleep duration and sleep quality. It appears that there is a certain sleep timing beneficial to mental health of adolescents.

Purpose : This study aimed to examine the relationship between sleep quality and its influencing factors in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods : This descriptive correlational study included 130 patients with CAD admitted to the cardiology department of a general hospital in B City between September 2019 and February 2020. Data were collected using structured questionnaires and research instruments to measure sleep quality, anxiety, depression, chronotype, and daytime sleepiness. Results : The mean scores for sleep quality, daytime sleepiness, anxiety, and depression were 7.59±3.45, 6.45±3.46, 6.58±3.88, and 7.74±4.05, respectively. In terms of chronotypes, 10.8%, 48.5%, and 40.7% of the participants had evening-, intermediate-, and morning-type patterns, respectively. Sleep quality was significantly correlated with anxiety (r=0.38, p<.001), depression (r=.37, p<.001), and daytime sleepiness (r=.26, p =.002). Factors associated with sleep quality in patients with CAD included anxiety (β=.29), heart failure (β=.22), daytime sleepiness(β=.21), and sleeping alone (β=.19). Collectively, these factors had an explanatory power of 23.1% for sleep quality variance. Conclusion: Patients with CAD often experience poor sleep quality owing to various factors such as anxiety, daytime sleepiness, heart failure, and sleeping alone. It is recommended that healthcare providers objectively evaluate sleep and identify factors that influence sleep quality. This will enable the development of effective methods for sleep management as part of nursing care.
