This study investigated antioxidant and anti-inflammatory in order to confirm the possibility of functional materials that can improve skin diseases using <i>Hemistepta lyrata</i> Bunge extracts and solvent fractions. As a result of measuring the total polyphenol content, the content was high in EtOAc fraction, and then the BuOH fraction is next. As a result of measuring DPPH free radical scavenging activities, it was confirmed that BuOH fractions had superior antioxidant activity compared to other solvent fractions. In particular, in the case of EtOAc fraction, it was confirmed that the antioxidant ability was excellent even at a low concentration compared to other fractions in ABTS and FRAP assay. Through this, it was confirmed that the higher the total polyphenol content, the higher the antioxidant effect. In addition, as a result of verifying the inflammatory efficacy of the extract and the solvent fraction using the J774 cell line, it was confirmed that the NO level decreased when the extract and the solvent fraction were treated. In particular, it is determined that the ethyl acetate fraction having a high total polyphenol content has superior antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities and contains more active substances than other fractions. Therefore, in order to conduct additional research, it is determined that research on the compounds contained in the ethyl acetate fraction is necessary.

This paper analyzes trends in forest healing studies based on the published graduates’ theses and domestic journals in Korea from January 1, 2006, to June 30, 2021. The results of the study will provide data for forest healing researchers. According to the research results, research related to forest healing in Korea has been steadily increasing since the early 2000s, and from 2020, most works are being actively performed. The gender ratio of researchers was 5.4% higher in females than males in the case of degree dissertations and 25.0% higher in males than females in the case of journals. In terms of publication type, the highest number of journals was 184 articles (61.3%), followed by master's thesis with 82 articles (27.3%) and doctoral dissertation with 34 articles (11.3%). In terms of research methods, most of the papers (77.3%) are quantitative studies. When the study subjects were classified into the general group, occupational group, disease group, and social target, the general group for the purpose of prevention were the most with 78 articles (61.9%). The topics of the papers related to forest healing were in the order of analysis of the effects of forest healing programs, development of forest healing programs, and forest healing facilities. At a time when more attention is being paid to forests, which are places of healing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it becomes basic data for forest healing researchers through objective data analysis of domestic forest healing. When analyzing domestic and foreign trends in the future, if you analyze paradigm changes and trends in various media, such as news as well as YouTube videos, using big data-related technologies that have been used in recent research papers, broader insights can be provided.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the social anxiety perceived by adolescents on their peer relationships and self-esteem. For the study, 132 adolescents in OO-si, Kyeongsangbukdo, were investigated. The collected data were analyzed through frequency analysis, reliability test and correlation analysis on the SPSS program, and also a multiple regression analysis was conducted for the causal relationship between the variables. The results of the analysis were as follows. First, the fear of negative evaluation and the fear of unfamiliar situations, the sub-factors of social anxiety of adolescents, were revealed to have negative influences on their peer relationship. Second, the performance anxiety and the fear of negative evaluation, the sub-factors of social anxiety of adolescents, were revealed to have negative influences on their self-esteem. Such results imply that the more the adolescents fear negative evaluation and unfamiliar situations, which indicate a higher level of social anxiety, the lower their level of self-esteem becomes. This study is considered to provide the foundation data for preparing educational programs that aim to enhance the positive psychological state of adolescents.
