1. Objectives
The purpose of this study lies on the objectification of the Sasang Constitutional diagnosis. This study was analyzing the constitutional characteristic of adult men voices by PSSC-2004.
2. Methods
The study was conducted on the subjects inputted /a/ 2.5-3 sec of 231 adult men voices to PSSC-2004. The statistical analyses are applied to three groups: total group, under 55 year-old group, over 55 year-old group. The group of total 231 was composed with 5 Taeyangins, 32 Soyangins, 102 Taeumins and 92 Soeumins. The under 55 years old group was composed with 4 Taeyangins, 23 Soyangins, 83 Taeumins and 77 Soeumins. The over 55 year-old group was composed with 1 Taeyangin, 9 Soyangins, 19 Taeumins and 15 Soeumins.
3. Results
1) In total group, the Soeumin’s mean value of center pitch(4) was significantly high compared with the others (P=0.034). 2) In total group, the Soeumin’s group 3 APQ was significantly low compared with the others (P=0.042).
3) In under 55 year-old group, the Soeumin’s center value of center pitch 4 was significantly high compared with the others (P=0.025)
4) In over 55 year-old group, no statistical significance was found between the Taeyangin, Soyangin, Taeumin and Soeumin.
4. Conclusions
In under 55 year-old group, Soeumin’s voice showed high pitched sound (clearness) at the low frequency (1000-2000Hz). In over 55 year-old group, there is no significant differences. This fits in with that ’Soeumin’s voice is ’Yu-tone’ born by ’Shang-tone’, very short and high.’ ’Yu-tone’ corresponds to ’Ra’ and witch is highest among Gong, Shang, Gao, Chi and Yu. This is related with the appearance that the Soeumin’s voice is weak, thin and high tone. Therefore it is supposed that Soeumin adult men’s voices are thick, and there are vibrations of the ending. It is accepted one of the Soeumin’s characters like as a mild tremor of limbs and deep breath caused by Soeumin’s Qi-deficiency. This outcome accords with the theory that Soeumin’s Qi is less than the Other constitutions.
