심상회전은 어떤 대상이나 형태를 심상으로 하나의 각도에서 다른 각도로 회전시키는 활동으로, 일상생활동작을 수행할 때 환경과 자신에 대한 위치 및 움직임을 계획하는 단계에서 필요한 기능 중 하나이다. 본 연구는 정상인과 만성 편마비환자를 대상으로 반응시간(reaction time)과 정답율(precision)에 심상회전과제가 미치는 영향을 알아보고, 임상에서 편마비 환자를 치료할 때 심상회전능력의 변화가 과제수행에 장애요인이 될 수 있는지를 알아보기 위함이다. 본 연구는 만성 편마비 환자 31명과 정상성인 20명이 참여하였다. 연구대상자는 거울상(mirror image)을 이용한 대조과제(comparison task)와 각도불일치상(angular disparity image)을 이용한 회전과제(rotation task) 등의 2 가지 유형의 심상회전과제를 수행하였다. 검사자는 대상자에게 한 쌍의 상에 대하여 동일한 상인지 아닌지를 '예'와 '아니오'로 가능한 한 빠르게 대답하라고 요구하였고, 상을 노출한 시간부터 대상자가 대답한 시간까지의 반응시간과 정답률을 측정하였다. 대조과제 및 회전과제에 대한 반응시간은 편마비 환자에서 정상인에 비하여 유의하게 느리게 나타났다. 그러나 편마비 환자와 정상인은 심상회전과제에 대한 정답율에서 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 본 연구에서 편마비 환자군과 정상군 모두에서 쌍을 이룬 상의 각이 불일치할 때 반응시간이 느리게 나타났지만, 정상군보다 편마비 환자군에서 심상회전에 오랜 시간이 걸렸다. 따라서 재활과정에서 편마비 환자를 대상으로 치료계획을 수립하고 치료를 할 때, 회전각도를 이용한 난이도 조절이 가능할 것으로 사료된다. 또한 본 연구결과는 정상인에 비하여 편마비 환자의 심상회전에 차이가 있다는 것을 재활과정에서 치료사는 염두 해 두어야 한다고 제안한다.

In this study, the relationship between military pilot's spatial ability and unusual attitude recovery was investigate. MRT(Mental Rotation Test) was measured with spatial ability whereas recovery time and error rates were mearsured with respect to 11 unusual attitudes. Eight fighter pilots and eight rear cockpit pilots of F-4E participated in this study. The results showed that MRT response time was significantly correlated with unusual attitude recovery time. The regression equation showed that unusual attitude recovery time was linearly related to MRT response time and could be explained by MRT response time more than 66%. In conclusion, it is recommended that a training is needed to improve the mental rotation ability in a visually restricted environments during maneuvering.

The purpose of this study was to investigate children's abilities of self-control and visual information processing based on their experience with video games. Participants, divided by prior exposure to video games, were 44 seven-year-old and 48 eleven-year-old boys. The impulsive tendency of children was measured through the MFFT and The delayed satisfaction test. Visual information processing ability was assessed through perceptual speed, mental rotation, and spatial visualization tasks. No differences were found between more-and less-video-game-experienced boys. Significant differences, however, were found in visual information processing abilities. More experienced boys performed better in mental rotation and spatial visualization tasks than less experienced boys.

Mathematical, spatial, and verbal abilities are important for future engineers to succeed in the STEM disciplines. The purpose of the study is to assess engineering students' spatial abilities and analyse the relationship with mathematical achievement, verbal achievement, and gender. On the mental rotation tests, 65% of male students demonstrated a substantial level of spatial abilities. But only 30% of female students exhibited spatial skills at the same level as their male colleagues. The correlations between mathematical - spatial - verbal abilities are found to be negligible. When spatial visualization ability was plotted according to the mathematical achievement level, there was no difference in the mean spatial abilities score. But when mathematical achievement score was plotted according to the spatial abilities, there was a noticeable difference. Regression analysis confirmed that female students' mathematical achievement increased as spatial abilities improved. This phenomenon was not observed for male students. It's because male students' spatial ability already contributed to their mathematics achievement. So spatial ability can be regarded as one factor for the gender differences in mathematics achievement. The gender gap on spatial abilities and math achievement is large among high achieving students. For example, there was a 4.3 to 1 male - female ratio and 3.4 to 1 male - female ratio among students scoring 99th percentile in spatial visualization test and scholastic aptitude test-math.

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of mental health attributes, such as the presence of psychiatric comorbidities or psychological comorbidities (low resilience), on outcomes after rotator cuff repair (RCR) and total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). Methods: PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar (results pages 1-20) were searched up to November 2023. Mental health problems of interest included the presence of psychiatric comorbidities (depression, anxiety) or indicators of poor psychological functioning, such as low resilience or the presence of distress. Patients were assigned to poor or good mental health groups in this study based on their grouping in the original study. Results: Fourteen studies were included in the meta-analysis. Patients with good mental health had greater improvements in postoperative American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons and Simple Shoulder Test scores in the TSA cohort (P=0.003 and P=0.01), RCR cohort (P<0.001), and the combined TSA and RCR cohort (P<0.001). No difference was found in visual analog scale score, satisfaction, external rotation, or flexion between the two mental health groups. Patients with poor mental health undergoing RCR experienced higher rates of adverse events and transfusions (P<0.001). Patients with poor mental health also had greater rates of revision and emergency department visits in the TSA cohort (P<0.001), RCR cohort (P=0.05 and P=0.03), and combined cohort (P<0.001). Patients with poor mental health undergoing TSA had a higher rate of re-admission (P<0.001). Conclusions: Patients with poor preoperative mental health showed inferior patient-reported outcome scores and increased rates of adverse events, revisions, and re-admissions. Level of evidence: III.

This study has been attempted to be helpful for the back rehabilization of Korean workers by analyzing the general, occupational, social aspects of low back pain and to identify possible risk factors for back pain in White and Blue collar workers. The primary data were collected from 380 workers in Seoul city by means of a Questionnaire with random which was distributed from March 10 to 31, 1990. For the test of statistical significance, chi-square analysis was used to compare the back pain characteristics between above two groups. The results were as follows : 1. The incidence of low back pain in all walkers studied was $79.7\%$. The incidence of Blue collar with low back pain $(87.2\%)$ was higher than that of White collars $(75.0\%)$. 2. With regard to the relationship of back pain to the occupational characteristics, statistically significant differences were observed between workers with and without back pain concerning the job factors on work-time, job satisfaction, mental stress, chair fittness, work posture, work rotation, weight lifting, monotonous repetitive movements, vibration, and heavy noise (p<0.05). 3. With regard to the relationship of back pain to the social characteristics, there were no differences with respect to having car, personality types, drinking habits, and leisure-time activities. However, significant differences were showed between no pain and pain groups for the using bed, sleeping posture, traffic time amount, walking health state, smoking habits, and physical exercise (p<0.05). 4. The comparative analysis of back pain related to work factors showed highly significant differences with respect to mental stress, chair fittness, work posture, trunk rotation, weight lifting, monotonous repetitive work in White collar group (p<0.01) ; and job satisfaction, mental stress, trunk rotation, weight lifting, monotonus repetitive work, exposure to vibration and heavy noise in Blue collar group(p<0.01). 5. The comparative analysis of social factors in two groups showed differences with respect to the using bed, sleeping posture, walking amount, health state, physical exercise, smoking habits in White cellar group (p<0.05) ; and walking amount, traffic time amount, health state, smoking habits, physical exercise in Blue cellar group (p<0.05). 6. In regard to the general aspects of back pain between two groups, there were differences concerning etiolgy of back pain, counselling partners, treatment types, and sick-leaves(p<0.05), except pain duration, and awareness of back pain.

Background: As the population is aging and indications are expanding, shoulder arthroplasty is becoming more frequent, especially bilateral staged replacement. However, surgeons are hesitant to use bilateral reverse prostheses due to potential limitations on activities of daily living. Methods: This meta-analysis was conducted to compare bilateral anatomic to bilateral reverse shoulder implants. PubMed, Cochrane, and Google Scholar (pages 1-20) were searched until April 2023. The clinical outcomes consisted of postoperative functional scores (American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons [ASES], Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation [SANE], Physical Component Score [PCS], Mental Component Score, and Simple Shoulder Test), pain, and range of motion (external rotation and forward elevation). Three studies were included in this meta-analysis. Results: Bilateral anatomic implants had better postoperative functional outcomes and range of motion, but no significant difference was seen in postoperative pain when compared to the reverse prosthesis. Better ASES score, SANE score, and PCS as well as better external rotation and forward elevation were seen in the bilateral anatomic shoulder replacement group, but no significant difference in pain levels was seen between the two groups Conclusions: The results may be explained by the lower baseline seen in the reverse prosthesis group, which may be due to an older population and different indications. Nevertheless, more randomized controlled studies are needed to confirm these findings. Level of evidence: III.
