For Sasang Constitution Diagnosis, they all have done SSCQ-P questionnaire. and a Sasang Constitution specialist diagnosed constitution. According to reactions after taking herb medicine, the patients of taking group were confirmed their constitutions. We checked Sasang Constitution diagnostic rate from each groups’(the whole subjects, taking herb medicine patients group, non taking herb medicine patients group) discriminant function. And to find out Sasang Constitution diagnostic rate, we applied discriminant functions to each other.
Results and Conclusions : 1) The whole subjects’ diagnostic accuracy rate was 72.07%. 2) Taking herb medicine group’s diagnostic accuracy Rate was 75.08%. Non taking herb medicine group’s diagnostic accuracy rate applied taking group’s discriminant function was 61.60%. 3) Non taking herb medicine group’s diagnostic accuracy rate was 81.06%.
