초록

본 연구의 목적은 귀지압을 받은 실험군과 대조군의 불안과 우울 정도 차이를 탐색하는 것이었다. 본 연구는 유사실험연구로 설계하여 실험군과 대조군을 편의 추출하였다. 총 40명의 연구참가자를 대상으로 각각 실험군, 대조군으로 구분하였다. 실험군에게 1주 간격으로 총 2주간 신문과 Tranquilizer point에 서암봉을 사용하여 귀지압을 적용하였다. 귀지압의 연구 효과를 탐색하기 위하여 실험 전, 후로 Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7)과 Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) 도구를 이용하였다. 실험 전 두 군의 차이가 있었던 성별, 나이, 불안을 통제한 후 공분산을 돌린 결과 우울의 실험 전후 차이값은 실험군과 대조군의 비교에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(F=10.18, p=0.003). 본 연구 결과 귀지압은 청소년의 불안을 감소시키지 않았지만, 우울은 감소시킨 것을 알 수 있었다.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of auricular acupressure using Seoam acupressure pellets on anxiety and depression among high school students. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted with 48 high school students conveniently assigned to the experimental group and control group. The experimental group received auricular acupressure using Seoam pellets on Shenmen and Tranquilizer points over a period of two weeks at one-week intervals between applications. To evaluate the effectiveness of auricular acupressure, the levels of anxiety and depression were measured before and after the intervention using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). Results: The results of this study showed that there was no statistically significant difference in anxiety levels between the experimental and control groups after controlling for age and pre-intervention depression level. After controlling for age and pre-intervention anxiety levels, a significant difference in depression levels was observed between the two groups. Conclusion: These findings suggest that auricular acupressure did not reduce anxiety, it effectively decreased depression among high school students. This study highlights the potential of auricular acupressure as a non-pharmacological approach to promote mental health in adolescents.
