The purpose of this study was to investigate the personality traits in constitutional types. The Questionnaire for the Sasang Constitution Classification Ⅱ and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire were completed by 155 university students. Statistical analyses of the Questionnaire for the Sasang Constitution Classification Ⅱ and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire scale scores and results are as follows : First, Personality differences in constitutional types are revealed significantly with respect to Eysenck Personality Questionnaire scales such as neuroticism, addiction, and criminality. Second, there is a significant difference between Eum(음) type and Yang(양) type along psychoticism and neuroticism. Third, sex difference is significant along the dimension of extraverion-intraversion.

This study was proposed as an exploratory study for understanding the biological bases and structures of three personality models: Eysenck's PEN model, Gray's BIS/BAS model, and Costa & McCrae's Five Factor Model, which was chosen as the major descriptive model regardless of its biological bases. Besides, Eysenck's impulsivity scale, IVE, was added to demonstrate the relationship of P and impulsivity. Concerning personality, most previous reports have explored the relationships between P300 and the introversion-extraversion of Eysenck's theory because of its putative biological bases. In the present study, forty-eight undergraduate took four personality batteries (ERQ-R, NEO-Pl-R, BIS/BAS, and IVE). Two types of oddball tasks including different stimulus duration were used to induce ERPs (50ms for task 1, 300ms for task 2). Distributional topographies of correlation coefficients with personality traits and ERP components were drawn, and considered for the consistent interpretation of the personality model structures. Even though all equivalences for extraversion of personality batteries showed similarities for their intra-correlation, their correlations with P3 amplitudes were dissociate. Eysenck's E might not be the proper psychometric measure for elucidating its biological bases. The present study supported the negative relationship of P3 amplitude and extraversion, which is the consensus of previous studies. Neuroticism and Psychoticism showed correlations with the earlier sensory processing components such as N1 and P2. This result might explain the reason why most of studies have failed to find biological connections relating them. Interaction between gender and personality traits should be considered for the interpretation of correlations. Two types of auditory stimulus duration had different sensitivity to personality traits.

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.

Objectives : The objective of this study was to examine the biopsychological traits of each Sasang type from a personality theory perspective. Methods : A review of different theories of personality is provided, in addition to review of ten previous studies on the psychological characteristics of the Sasang types. Results : 1. Similarities and differences were found between Sasang typology and Western theories of personality. 2. The prevalence of Sasang type was 28:36:36 (So-Yang:Tae-Eum:So-Eum), and the majority of the study sample were males in their twenties. 3. The Yin-Yang and Large-Small axes of Sasang typology were comparable to Eysenck's Extraversion and Neuroticism dimension. So-Yang type showed high extraversion and low neuroticism, and So-Eum type exhibited low extraversion and high neuroticism. Tae-Eum type was extravert and neurotic, and highly distinctive in such physical traits as Body Mass Index and blood triglyceride concentration. 4. We make recommendations for future studies on Sasang typology within a biopsychosocial and cognitive framework. Conclusions : This study demonstrates the possibility of Sasang typology being explicable from a cross-cultural biopsychosocial theory.

Objectives: The purpose of the study is to investigate the relationship between the personality types and satisfaction of education satisfaction in dental hygiene students. Methods: A self-reported questionnaire was filled out by 898 students in Busan, Gyeongnam, and Ulsan from March 2 to 25, 2014. Data were analyzed through t-test, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The instruments used personality types and satisfaction of education. The personality types was adapted from Korean Eyesenck Personality Questionnaire that was modified by Lee on the basis of Eysenck Personality Questionnaire(Eysenck & Eysenck, 1971). The questionnaire consisted of 44 questions including extroversion factors(18 questions) and neurotic tendency(26 questions). The questionnaire was score by Likert 5 scale. Cronbach alpha was 0.835 in the study. The neurotic tendency consisted of 26 questions and the higher score showed the higher neurotic tendency. Cronbach alpha was 0.927 in the study. The instrument for satisfaction of education was adapted from Kim and Go and partly modified. The instrument was categorized into dental hygiene department satisfaction(6 questions), major satisfaction(6 questions), facilities satisfaction(4 questions), lecture satisfaction(7 questions), and faculty satisfaction(4 questions). The instrument was scored by Likert 5 scale. Cronbach alpha of education satisfaction was 0.928 in the study. Results: Extroverted students showed 3.70 point which was the highest score in the department satisfaction(p<0.001). Less neurotic students showed 3.68 point which was the highest score in the department satisfaction(p<0.001). There was a strong positive correlation between the major satisfaction and department satisfaction(p<0.01). The personality types that affected the education satisfaction were related to the extroverted students and less neurotic students(p<0.01). Conclusions: The personality types had much influences on the satisfaction of the major and academic accomplishment.

Objectives : Alopecia areata has been known to be closely related to stress. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between stress and alopecia areata investigating how life events(which alopecia areata patients experience), amount of stress, coping strategy, and their personality type affect the oneset and aggravation of the disease. Methods : The subjects were 43 alopecia areata patients who visited the department of dermatology outpatients clinic, and 36 fungal infection diseases patients as the control group. They all completed Scale of Life Events, Coping Style Cheklist, Eysenck A-type Personality Inventory. The analysis of covariance with the age as covariate was carried out. Results : Compared to the control group, alopecia areata patients had significantly more stressful life events, and higher amount of stress, but there was no significant difference in coping strategy. Type A Personality is also resulted to have no significant relationship to alopecia areata. Conclusions : Alopecia areata patients had significantly higher amount of stress than the control group, and this result is consistent with the previous studies which suggest that stress contributes to the oneset of alopecia areata. The causual relationship between stress and alopecia areata should be further examined in order to be applied in clinical setting.

Augmenting-reducing evoked potentials(AREP) were studied in 38 college students to explore the topographic distribution between AR slope and personality. The Zuckerman Seeking Scale(SSS) and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire(EPQ) assessed personality. There was a significant positive correlation between AR slope and Extraversion-Introversion(E) in the frontocentral area ; the right posterior area showed a significant negative correlation with E. The Thrill and Adventure Seeking(TAS) subscale showed a significant negative correlation with slope in the right posterior temporal area. The average slope map of all subjects revealed a distribution showing more augmenting in frontocentral areas and more reducing in posterior areas.

Based on a survey on 1620 students in primary school and secondary school., by adopting Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ), we got the following findings : 1. There is close relationship between emotionality characteristics of temperament and mathematics academic achievement of the subjects at Grade 5 (Primary 5), Grade 8 (Junior Secondary 2), and Grade 10 (Senior Secondary 2). Also there is close relationship between internal-external directivity characteristics of temperament and mathematics academic achievement at Grade 5 and Grade 8. While there is not close relationship between internal-external directivity characteristics of temperament and mathematics academic achievement at Grade 10; 2. There is close relationship between temperament types and mathematics academic achievement of the subjects from the three grades. Superior temperament, which benefit learning mathematics, are sanguine, sanguine-phlegmatic and phlegmatic; While inferior temperament types, which don't benefit learning mathematics, are choleric, melancholic and choleric-melancholic. With the rising of grade, temperament types of benefiting learning mathematics converts from external directivity emotion balance to balance of internal-external directivity emotion stability. While temperament of no benefiting learning mathematics converts from internal directivity emotion balance to balance of internal-external directivity emotion instability; 3. In mathematics education, students' temperament difference, which affects learning mathematics, should be recognized. Mathematics teachers should find out the best teaching ways, forms and methods which are suitable for student's temperament type, so that the students with different temperament types can gain better mathematics academic achievement.
