This study utilized qualitative research to understand the changes taking place in adolescent dietary behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic and the current status of school-provided nutrition counseling. These, along with barriers and strategies for improvement, were derived from focus group interviews with 10 nutrition teachers. Throughout the pandemic, adolescents experienced various dietary problems, including frequent meal skipping, unbalanced diets, increased obesity, and difficulties building positive attitudes towards food. To resolve these dietary problems, nutrition teachers recognized the need for school-provided nutrition counseling. However, nutrition teachers faced various barriers, such as a lack of time for nutrition counseling among students, lack of support from parents, and insufficient space and resources. To revitalize school-provided nutrition counseling, strategies such as home-connected nutrition counseling, the development of standardized guidelines, manuals for school-provided nutrition counseling, software support for nutrition diagnosis, and implementation of nutrition counseling in connection with cooking activities were proposed. This is important as school-provided nutrition counseling can help develop the foundation for healthy dietary behaviors and health promotion in adolescents.

Cyber counseling, one of the most compatible type of consultation for the information society, enables people to reveal their mental agonies and private problems anonymously, since it does not require face-to-face interview between a counsellor and a client. However, there are few cyber counseling centers which provide high quality and trustworthy service, although the number of cyber counseling center has highly increased. Therefore, this paper is intended to enable an appropriate consultation for each client by analyzing client propensity using Bayesian variable selection. Bayesian variable selection is superior to stepwise regression analysis method in finding out a regression model. Stepwise regression analysis method, which has been generally used to analyze individual propensity in linear regression model, is not efficient since it is hard to select a proper model for its own defects. In this paper, based on the case database of current cyber counseling centers in the web, we will analyze clients' propensities using Bayesian variable selection to enable individually target counseling and to activate cyber counseling programs.

본 연구는 군 간부의 병사상담 및 관리를 위한 상담능력의 한계를 제시하고 이와 직접적으로 관련된 군대내에서 이루어지는 상담교육 개선방안을 모색하는 것이다. 기존문헌을 참고하여 후기청소년에 해당하는 군대내 병사들의 군 생활 부적응으로 인한 문제점을 살펴보았다. 또한 군대내 병사들과 밀착되어 생활하는 군 간부들이 병사들을 관리하는데 따른 어려움과 군대 내에서 이루어지는 상담교육의 실태를 살펴보았다. 본 조사의 목적을 달성하고자 설문조사, 심층면접을 실시하였다. 군 간부 100명을 대상으로 설문조사하여 빈도분석 하였으며, 설문조사 내용의 보완을 위해 3명의 군 간부를 대상으로 한 심층면접 자료를 질적 분석하였다. 분석결과 입대 전에 상담교육을 받은 경험이 없는 군 간부들이 76.5%였고, 입대 후에도 상담교육을 받지 않은 경우가 32.9%였다. 상담의 어려움을 호소한 경우가 61%였다. 군대 내에서 받은 상담교육에 대해 교육시간 부족과 이론중심 교육의 문제점을 언급하였다. 병사상담과 관련한 상담교육 내용의 개선방안으로 '병사들에 대한 이해', '병사들의 문제파악', '교육내용 적용' 군 상담 기술'등을 도출하였다. 이 연구는 병사들의 군생활 부적응 문제가 심각해지고 있는 현 상황에서 병사들을 상담하는 군 간부의 상담능력과 기존 상담교육의 한계를 알아보고 상담교육 개선방안을 도출하였다는 점에 의의가 있다.

Purpose: In order to assess the effects of smoking cessation counseling provided by a public health center in terms of smoking temptation, smoking cessation self-efficacy, and satisfaction with smoking cessation counseling, and also to provide baseline data for the improvement of smoking cessation counseling programs. Methods: A total of 52 current and former smokers who utilized smoking cessation counseling provided by the health center at least once participated in this study. Using a self-report survey method, data were collected in November 2005. Results: The mean age and duration of smoking of the participants were 49 and 28 years, respectively. Seventy-one percent had experienced smoking cessation trials prior to using the counseling services, and most of the participants had utilized smoking cessation counseling less than 5 times. Mean scores of temptation, self-efficacy, and satisfaction with counseling were $3.39{\pm}0.75,\;3.80{\pm}0.66$, and $4.38{\pm}0.55$ (range,1-5), respectively. The participants were largely vulnerable to smoking temptations under conditions of anxiety or stress. The duration of counseling was associated negatively with smoking temptation, but was associated positively with self-efficacy. Conclusion: To help adopt and maintain smoking cessation, smoking cessation counseling should emphasize methods for coping with smoking temptations and to increase smoking cessation self-efficacy in various tempting situations.

이 연구의 목적은 초등학교의 상담 실태를 조사하고 상담에 대한 요구와 고민의 정도를 분석하여 초등학교에서의 바람직한 상담의 방향을 제시하는데 있다. 이러한 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 전라북도 초등학교 학생 476명을 대상으로 질문지를 사용하여 실태조사를 하였다. 연구결과는 첫째, 학생들은 상담안내, 상담경험 및 상담교사와 상담실이 부족하며, 담임교사가 상담이 필요하다고 생각될 때 이루어지는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 수업이 끝난 후를 이용해 개인 상담을 원하며, 자신의 문제를 잘 들어주고 이해해주는 여자 상담선생님을 선호하는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 초등학생들은 고민의 정도가 6학년 여학생, 형제가 있는 학생, 아버지만 계시는 학생, 하위권 학생이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 초등학생의 고민문제의 각 영역들 간에 정적상관이 있었다. 본 연구결과로 볼 때, 초등학생들에게 실제적인 학교상담이 이루어지기 위해서는 행정적 제도적인 내용을 재검토해 볼 필요가 있으며, 학생 스스로가 문제를 해결할 수 있도록 다양한 상담프로그램이 개발되어야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Purpose: Demand for genetic counseling on cancer predisposition syndrome is increasing. We evaluated the psychological effect on counselees after genetic counseling at a clinic in a single center. Materials and Methods: We surveyed a total of 72 enrolled participants who visited a genetic counseling clinic at the Samsung Medical Center (SMC). The initial survey was conducted before the first genetic counseling session, and the second survey was conducted after the second genetic counseling session. A total of 43 participants completed both the initial and second surveys. Results: The initial survey of 72 participants indicated higher feelings of guilt in the group with religion, higher depression and anxiety in the group with a diagnosis of self, and higher anxiety in the group on self-referral to the genetic counseling clinic. In the completed survey of 43 participants, overall decreased depression was observed after the second genetic counseling session (P=0.013). Risk perception and anxiety decreased in the group diagnosed with benign variant/variant of uncertain significance (BV/VUS, 25/3) and increased in the group diagnosed with pathogenic variant (PV, 15). Risk perception and anxiety differed between the BV/VUS and PV groups (P<0.001 and P=0.03, respectively). Conclusion: The genetic counseling clinic at the SMC was effective in ameliorating the depression score. Assessment of survey results revealed different depression scores, feelings of guilt and anxiety, and different effects of the genetic counseling clinic, depending on the subgroups. Understanding the needs and psychological characteristics of different groups is necessary for improving genetic counseling services.
