The STATA 14.2 Statistical Package Program was used for analysis of the collected data, frequency analysis was performed to determine the distribution ratio of the subjects, and reliability analysis and correlation analysis were performed with respect to the established key variables. Next, t-test and one-way ANOVA were conducted to verify differences in work environment, task stress and task satisfaction factors according to demographic characteristics, and the results were as follows: There were differences in work environment, job stress and job satisfaction recognition depending on demographic characteristics. In detail, the factors for the work environment indicated significant differences in age, academic background, number of years of service, wages and types of service in the recognition of the work environment. Job stress factors indicated significant differences in age, education, wages and types of service in job stress recognition. In job satisfaction factors, age, academic background, number of years of service and wages (monthly benefits) showed significant differences in job satisfaction recognition. In addition, the results of multiple regression analyses to identify the working environment, job stress, and job satisfaction are as follows. The working environment has had a positive impact on job satisfaction, and the better the job environment, promotion and organizational characteristics, the higher the job satisfaction. It has been shown that job stress has had a negative impact on job satisfaction, conflict of relationship (promoting colleagues). job autonomy increases job satisfaction, and job satisfaction decreases when job requirements and job insecurity increase. In terms of the impact of work environment on job satisfaction, the higher the work promotion, job environment and organizational characteristics, the higher the job satisfaction level, the report showed. According to these studies, the better the working environment, the lower the job stress, and the lower the job stress, the higher the job satisfaction. In addition, the better the working environment, the more satisfied the job was found to be, and the empirical research result was verified that improvement of the working environment of security workers can reduce job stress and improve job satisfaction through improvement of the working environment.

Image representative evaluation of the sensitivity of the brightness contrast ratings 1 car pleasure, displeasure or stress or emotional tranquility and two cars are separated by image segmentation. Emotion Recognition of four compared to the numerical data is measured by brightness. OpenCV implementation through evaluation graph the stress intensity contrast, tranquility, pleasure, displeasure, depending on changes in the value of the computing is divided into four emotional. Contrast sensitivity of computing the brightness depending on the value entered 'nuisance' to 'excellent' or 'stress' to 'calm' the emotional changes can give. Calculate the sensitivity of the image regularity of localized computing system can control the future direction of industry on the application of emotion recognition will play a positive role.

  • BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by deficits in memory and cognitive functions. The accumulation of amyloid beta peptide ($A{\beta}$) and oxidative stress in the brain are the most common causes of AD. MATERIALS/METHODS: Caffeic acid (CA) is an active phenolic compound that has a variety of pharmacological actions. We studied the protective abilities of CA in an $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-injected AD mouse model. CA was administered at an oral dose of 10 or 50 mg/kg/day for 2 weeks. Behavioral tests including T-maze, object recognition, and Morris water maze were carried out to assess cognitive abilities. In addition, lipid peroxidation and nitric oxide (NO) production in the brain were measured to investigate the protective effect of CA in oxidative stress. RESULTS: In the T-maze and object recognition tests, novel route awareness and novel object recognition were improved by oral administration of CA compared with the $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-injected control group. These results indicate that administration of CA improved spatial cognitive and memory functions. The Morris water maze test showed that memory function was enhanced by administration of CA. In addition, CA inhibited lipid peroxidation and NO formation in the liver, kidney, and brain compared with the $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-injected control group. In particular, CA 50 mg/kg/day showed the stronger protective effect from cognitive impairment than CA 10 mg/kg/day. CONCLUSIONS: The present results suggest that CA improves $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-induced memory deficits and cognitive impairment through inhibition of lipid peroxidation and NO production.

  • This study conducted an online and offline survey of 210 people from March 11 to 27, 2021 for the purpose of investigating and analyzing the current status of skin stress recognition and beauty care behavior due to wearing masks. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 25.0 with Cronbach's α, Frequency Analysis, Chi-square test, and One way Anova. The average daily mask wearing time of more than 7 hours during the Covid-19 period was 43.8%, and skin stress recognition by wearing masks was highest among those in their 30s (M=4.27) and service workers (M=4.64), and those with acne and skin troubles (M=4.47) perceived high stress. The most important factor for home care treatment was cleansing(67.6%) and for beauty care was skin care(36.7%). Considerations factors on beauty care were 54.3% for service and customer care capabilities, and on body shape management method 45.7% for exercise. According to this study, respondents are recognizing skin stress due to the long-term use of masks, and home care treatment has been increasing as the esthetic salon has become unstable to visit due to the Covid-19 epidemic.

  • When people recognize a landscape, they first need to see it for a definite period time. This study clarified the way green space in a landscape is recognized using eye movement analysis, and evaluated the Pffi9bility for quantifying stress-reducing effects of seeing a landscape. The results of the experiments on eye movement analysis suggest that the way of recognizing green space in a landscape may depend on a ratio of the amount of scenic greenery in a landscape, color and greenery layout. Especially, this study also suggests that the possibility of the greenery layout guiding eye movement could be verified by conducting a study on planting patterns. In addition, the results of the experiments for quantifying stress-reducing substances found that it is likely that a green space in an urban area has stress-reducing effects.
