Purpose: The purpose of this study was to verify the validity and reliability of a 14-item Resilience Scale by applying it to Korean university students. Methods: The original English version of the RS-14 was translated into Korean, and the Korean version of the RS-14 was confirmed with back-translation. This was a methodological study, and data were collected from 273 students. Principal components factor analysis and Pearson correlation coefficients were used to test validity; Cronbach's ⍺ coefficient was used to test reliability. Results: Factor analysis of 14 items revealed 2 factors with a total variance of 55.43%. The new scale correlated significantly with self-esteem (.48, p<.001) and depression (-.44, p<.001). Cronbach's coefficient was .905. Conclusion: The results indicate good validity and reliability for the Korean version of the RS-14. Future studies will need to further test this scale by applying it to different study populations.

The purpose of this study was to demonstrate the potential alterations in structural network properties related to physical activity (PA) in healthy elderly. We recruited 76 elderly individuals with normal cognition from Samsung Medical Center in Seoul, Korea. All participants underwent the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery and 3.0T brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Participants were subdivided into quartiles according to the International Physical Activity Questionnaire scores, which represents the amount of PA. Through graph theory based analyses, we compared global and local network topologies according to PA quartile. The higher PA group demonstrated better performance in speed processing compared to the lower PA group. Regional nodal strength also significantly increased in the higher PA group, which involved the bilateral middle frontal, bilateral inferior parietal, right medial orbitofrontal, right superior, and middle temporal gyri. These results were further replicated when the highest and the lowest quartile groups were compared in terms of regional nodal strengths and local efficiency. Our findings that the regional nodal strengths associated with the attentional network were increased in the higher PA group suggest the preventive effects of PA on age-related cognitive decline, especially in attention.

Identification of Geriatric Depression and Anxiety Using Activity Tracking Data and Minimal Geriatric Assessment Scales

The identification of geriatric depression and anxiety is important because such conditions are the most common comorbid mood problems that occur in older adults. The goal of this study was to build a machine learning framework that identifies geriatric mood disorders of depression and anxiety using low-cost activity trackers and minimal geriatric assessment scales. We collected activity tracking data from 352 mild cognitive impairment patients, from 60 to 90 in age, by having them wear activity trackers on their wrist for more than a month. We then extracted the features of 24-h activity rhythms and sleep patterns from the time-series activity tracking data. To increase the accuracy, we designed a novel method to incorporate additional features from questionnaire-based assessments of the geriatric depression scale and geriatric anxiety inventory into the activity tracking features. In the multi-label classification, we applied the binary relevance method to develop two single-label classifiers for depression and anxiety. The best hyper-parameters of classification algorithms for each label were selected by comparing the classification performance. We finally selected the combination of classifiers for depression and anxiety with the lowest Hamming loss as a multi-label classifier. This study successfully demonstrated the possibility of identifying geriatric depression and anxiety using low-cost activity trackers and minimal geriatric assessment scales for use in the real fields.
