This study aims at examining relationships between body mass index and perceived body shape and image. Using a purposive sampling method, 404 female college students were recruited from three universities located in Busan from April 2000 to June 2000. To classify the levels of obesity, Broca's method was used. Secord & Jourard's Body Cathexis Scale(1953) modified by Kim mi ok(1997) was also used to measure body image. The collected data were analyzed with the percentages, Mean, Standard deviation, T-test. and Pearson correlation Coefficient. The results of this study were as follows. 1. 56.4% of subjects were under weight, and 42.1% were normal for BMI. 2. 55.9% of subjects were very satisfied with their body shape and 15.1% were satisfied. 3. The mean values of perceived body shape according to the BMI were 3.0 for the overweight group, 2.65 for the normal weight group, and 2.21 for the low weight group, the mean differences among three groups were significantly satisfied (F= 21.42, P= .000). 4. The mean scores of body image according to the BMI was 160.21 for low weight group, 155.57 for the normal weight group, and 140.0 for overweight group. The mean differences among the three groups were not significantly satisfied. 5. The mean scores of body image according to perceived body shape were 17819 for the satisfaction group, 161.08 for the moderate group and 150.82 for dissatisfied group. The mean differences among the three groups were significantly satisfied (F= 35.72, P=. 000). 6. There were high positive correlations between BMI and perceived body shape(r= .317) and between perceived body shape and body image (r= .415).

PURPOSE: The purpose of study was to identify the relationship between body image and self-esteem in patients with chronic renal failure. METHOD: The subjects of study were 97 patients with chronic renal failure who were outpatients at K medical center, B hospital, H hospital in Busan. Data were collected from Nov. 15th to Dec. 17th, 1999. The instruments used for study were the Body Cathexis Scale and Rogenberg's Self-esteem Scale. Collected data were analyzed by frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Pearson's correlation coefficients. RESULT: 1. The mean score for body image was 137.46+/-22.21, the mean mark 2.92+/-0.47, and the mean score of self-esteem was 30.80+/-0.76, the mean mark 3.08+/-0.87. 2. There was a significant difference in the score for body image according to educational level (F=5.189, P=0.002) and type of residence (F=6.095, P=0.001). 3. There was a significant difference in the score for self-esteem according to age (F=3.615, P=0.009), educational level (F=4.772, P=0.004), marital status (F=3.498, P=0.019), and presence of children (F=2.511, P=0.014). 4. Body image in patients with chronic renal failure patients showed significant correlation with self-esteem (r=0.519, P=0.000). CONCLUSION: From this study, a relationship between body image and self-esteem in patients with chronic renal failure was identified.

The increased potential for the lifespan of a child with cancer is largely due to advance in drug treatment, radiation treatment, and surgical techniques. In this generation cancer has become associated with chronic illness. Therefore supportive nursing intervention for children with cancer is needed to promote normal growth and development. This study was designed to develop and test the supportive nursing intervention program for promoting body image and self-esteem of children with cancer. The supportive nursing intervention program involved emotional, physical, informational, and social support. The subjects were 41 children with cancer(20 in intervention group, 21 in control group) in K city. Measurements were taken concerning body image and self-esteem from both groups during pre and post test. The data were analyzed using Cronvach's alpha, x2-test, paired t-test and t-test. The results were as follows: The intervention group had a more positive body image as measured by the Body Cathexis Scale(t=2.436, p=.020) and a more self esteem as measured by the Cpopersmith self-inventory (t=2.768, p=.009) than the control group at post test. According to this study, the supportive nursing intervention program was effective for promoting the body image and self-esteem of children with cancer. Repeated research is needed to develop a refined supportive nursing intervention program for children with chronic illness.

É realçada a dificuldade em se conceituar a sexualidade por ser assunto complexo e controvertido. É apresentada uma conceituaçäo baseada na psicanálise freudiana. Para tanto, muitas das referências de Freud sobre oassunto säo reunidas e citadas tendo como fonte a Ediçäo Standard Brasileira das Obras Psicológicas Completas de Sigmund Freud. Assim, pouco a pouco, a seguinte conceituaçäo de sexualidade é elaborada: sexualidade é energia vital instintiva direcionada para o prazer, passível de variaçöes quantitativas e qualitativas, vinculada à homeostase, à afetividade, às relaçöes sociais, às fases do desenvolvimento do libido infantil, ao erotismo, à genialidade, à relaçäo sexual, à procriaçäo e à sublimaçäo
