Objective: To determine the changes in dental anxiety, state anxiety, and trait anxiety levels of patients and their parents after 3 months of active orthodontic treatment. Methods: We evaluated 120 patients and one parent of each patient. State Anxiety (STAI-S), Trait Anxiety (STAI-T), and Corah's Dental Anxiety Scale (DAS) were administered before orthodontic treatment (T1) and after 3 months of treatment (T2). Differences in scores between T1 and T2 were compared using paired-sample t-tests and the relationship between the scores of the DAS and the STAI were analyzed using a bivariate two-tailed Pearson correlation test. Results: Dental anxiety and state anxiety levels decreased among the patients after adjustment to orthodontic treatment (p < 0.001). However, 3 months of treatment was not sufficient to decrease the anxiety levels of parents (p > 0.05). Patient trait anxiety affected patient state anxiety and dental anxiety (p < 0.01). Additionally, a significant correlation was found between patient dental anxiety and parent dental anxiety (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Dental anxiety and state anxiety levels decrease after patients become familiar with their orthodontist and they became accustomed to orthodontic treatment. However, 3 months is not a sufficient length of time to decrease parental anxiety levels.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to identify and assess factors that may contribute to pain of patients undergoing implant surgery. Materials and Methods: A total of 24 patients who underwent implant surgery were included in the study. Each patient's anxiety was measured using Corah's dental anxiety score(DAS) and modified Spielberger's state-trait anxiety inventory(STAI) immediately after the operation. Also, level of pain was measured using visual analog scale(VAS) during the operation and 48 hours after the surgery. The effect of various factors, such as demographic variables, previous dental experiences and operation time were also analyzed. Results: Postoperative pain levels were relatively low than expected. However, DAS and STAI were high among patients, and it showed that patients had anxieties about implant surgery according to DAS and STAI values. The previous dental experience did not affect the pain level, but the duration of surgery and the presence of accompanied advanced surgery did. Conclusion: To reduce patient's pain, proper management of anxiety will be required and careful attention is needed when performing local infiltration.

Introduction: Intravenous sedation is performed to ensure smooth and safe surgery. Dental anxiety is a reaction to an unknown danger. The Spielberger's state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) can be used to simultaneously evaluate the levels of state and trait anxiety. State anxiety is defined as subjective feelings of nervousness. This study assessed the presurgical anxiety using STAI and performed intravenous sedation for patients whose level of state anxiety was > stage IV. Based on our clinical experience, it is believed that higher doses of sedatives are needed to induce the desired levels of sedation in patients with a high level of state anxiety. Objectives: This study examined whether the sedative consumption of the patient with a high anxiety level increased. Patients and Methods: Patients with state anxiety scores of ${\geq}$51 were included in Group V, and those with state anxiety scores ranging from 42 to 50 were placed in Group IV. To induce sedation, intravenous access was established, and a bolus dose of 3.0 mg midazolam was administered intravenously. Sedation was maintained by administering a continuous infusion of propofol, which was aimed at achieving an Observer's Assessment of Alertness/Sedation scale of 10-12/20. In this study, midazolam was initially administered when the body movements appeared to occur or the blood pressure increased. This was followed by the administration of higher doses of propofol if low sedation was observed. Results: There were no significant differences in the patient demographics, duration of sedation, and doses of local anaesthetic agents between Groups IV and V. The midazolam dose and mean propofol dose needed to maintain comparable levels of sedation were significantly higher in Group V than in Group IV. Conclusion: In female patients, whose level of preoperative state anxiety is more than Stage V of STAI, a large quantity of sedatives is needed for intravenous sedation.

Objectives The aim of this study was to find out the psychological changes associated with internet addiction between before and after the military drill among the young male army recruits. Methods All 1091 participants were army recruits aged from 19 to 22 years who participated in the 5-week military drill. They were assessed with some self-reported questionnaires [Sociodemographic questionnaires, Young's Internet Addiction Scale (IAS), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS), the Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Self-Rated Scale (ASRS)]. They were divided into two groups, One is the internet addiction tendency group and the other is non-addiction group according to the IAS score. And the severity of the internet addiction tendency, depression, anxiety and impulsiveness were evaluated by the IAS, the STAI, the BDI, the BIS, the ASRS before and after military drill. Results The result of the paired t-test shows that the IAS, the STAI, the BDI, the BIS, the ASRS scores decreased after military drill in both non-addiction group and internet addiction tendency group. The result of the repeated measures ANOVA shows that there is an interaction effect between the changes of ASRS-hyperactivity (F = 23.437, p < 0.001), ASRS-impulsiveness (F = 4.896, p = 0.027), BIS-total (F = 4.057, p = 0.044), BIS-motor impulsiveness (F = 13.609, p < 0.001) scores and groups. The result of the generalized estimating equation shows that internet addiction tendency is associated with ASRS-inattention (${\beta}=0.075$, p < 0.001), ASRS-hyperactivity (${\beta}=0.092$, p = 0.002), STAI-trait anxiety (${\beta}=0.046$, p < 0.001), BIS-motor impulsiveness (${\beta}=0.119$, p = 0.028). Conclusions The results show that psychopathologies such as internet addiction tendency, depression, anxiety, impulsiveness may improve after military drill regardless of the groups. Internet addiction tendency may be related to the ASRS-inattention, ASRS-hyperactivity, STAI-trait anxiety, motor-impulsiveness. So these findings may be considered in the treatment of internet addiction in terms of the impulsiveness control.

본 연구는 범불안 성향의 대학생을 대상으로 주의편향 및 범불안 증상에 대한 주의 피드백 인식 및 조절 훈련의 효과를 확인하였다. 범불안장애 척도(GAD-7) 10점 이상 또는 펜실베니아 걱정 질문지 척도(K-PSWQ) 56점 이상이며, 주의편향을 나타내는 범불안 성향의 대학생 31명을 선발하여 주의 피드백 인식 및 조절 훈련(Attention Feedback Awareness and Control Training, A-FACT) 집단(n = 11), 주의편향수정(Attention Bias Modification, ABM) 집단(n = 10) 및 활성 위약 통제(Active Placebo Control, APC) 집단(n = 10)에 무선할당하였다. A-FACT 집단은 탐침탐사과제를 이용한 주의편향수정 훈련 시, 개인의 기저반응시간(Baseline Neutral Response time, BNR)을 기준으로 편향 여부에 대한 피드백을 실시간으로 제공받았다. ABM 집단은 기존 ABM 절차와 동일하며, APC 집단은 주의편향을 감소시키기 위한 프로그램이라는 안내는 주어지지만 피드백이 주어지지 않는 탐침탐사과제를 실시하였다. 총 8회기로 구성되어, 주 2회로 4주간 진행되었다. 주의편향수정 훈련의 효과는 주의편향점수(Attention Bias Score, ABS)와 GAD-7, K-PSWQ 및 상태 및 특성 불안 검사(K-STAI) 점수 변화로 평가하였다. 반복측정 변량분석 결과, A-FACT 집단은 ABM 집단과 APC 집단에 비해 ABS가 유의하게 감소하였으며, GAD-7, K-PSWQ 및 K-STAI 점수도 유의하게 감소하였다. 이는 주의편향수정 훈련 시 편향에 대한 피드백을 통해 편향의 여부를 인식시키고 이를 통한 주의의 자기 조절적 통제가 주의편향 및 범불안장애 증상 경감에 효과적일 가능성을 시사한다.
