The purpose of this paper is to explain the necessity of secure budget in public libraries with regard to promoting library usage. It is namely to attempt to find out if there really is a connection between library funding and library usage. For this purpose, the relevant data of all the 31 public libraries in Busan were collected from the 2013 National library Statistics of Korea. To determine the connection between library funding and usage, two variables were selected, 'TFI (Total Funding Indicator) = $\sqrt{personnelcosts{\times}materialcosts}$' for independent variable and 'LU (Library Usage) = (visits per year) + (loans per year)/number of inhabitants' for dependent variable. The results showed that there is a clear relationship between TFI and LU and If more cost is spent on personal resources and material resources, the total usage of the public library also increase. The findings are limited due to the fact that the observation was focusing on public libraries in one community and the period of observation was one year in 2013.

80 년대 이후 국내 뮤지엄은 양적으로 많은 성장을 이루었고, 현재 전국에는 200 여 개의 뮤지엄이 개관 중이다. 이 중 많은 뮤지엄들이 기존의 역사나 자연사를 주제로 한 뮤지엄과는 다른, 다양한 주제와 내용을 다루는 '테마 뮤지엄' 을 표방하고 있지만 여러 면에서 외국의 선진 테마 뮤지엄에 비해 열악한 것이 사실이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 완성도 있는 테마뮤지엄을 위해서 테마뮤지엄의 구조를 내러티브 특성에 따른 고찰을 통해 구조적으로 이해하고자 하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 테마뮤지엄의 속성을 규명한 후, 완성도 있는 테마뮤지엄의 실현을 위해서는 뮤지엄 내 내러티브성의 확립이 필수적이라는 가설을 검증하고자 하였다. 또한 이를 통해 테마뮤지엄의 기본 속성이 내러티브 구조에 있음을 논증하고 이러한 내러티브 구조가 명확히 드러나는 테마뮤지엄을 실현하기 위한 디자인 방법론적 접근으로써 테마뮤지엄의 내러티브구조 확립을 위한 방법틀을 제안하였다. 이 방법틀은 테마뮤지엄의 내러티브 구조, 내러티브 유형별 포지셔닝맵, 내러티브 체험과 재방문력 창출의 상관 정도를 제공함으로써 테마뮤지엄 디자이너의 내러티브 구조에 따른 디자인 개선책 도출을 도울 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 또한 제안한 방법틀의 디자이너와 사용자 간 수용도를 알아보기 위해 사례연구를 실시하였는데, 그 대상으로 국내 뮤지엄 가운데 8 곳을 선정하였다. 이를 통해 내러티브 구조에 따른 디자인 계획이 관람객의 만족도에 큰 영향을 미침을 입증할 수 있었다. 이상의 연구는 국내 중소규모 테마뮤지엄의 질적 성장에 기여할 것이며, '테마'라는 특성을 가진 환경에 확대하여 적용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Bedwetting is the most common urologic complaint among children. Wetting frequency decreases from birth to adolescence. Etiology is multifactorial : genetic, neuromuscular or urologic maturation, psychosocial stressors, toilet training, or biologic aspects. Treatment has been also multimodal : drugs to depress bladder activity, increase urethral resistance, or modulate sleep. and recently urine reduction modulation. All of these approaches reflect a lack of sufficient knowledge of the underlying pathophysiology of nocturnal enuresis. Recent researches have focused on sleep disturbances, bladder reservoir function, urine output, and a combination of the three. Sleep studies indicate that enuretic patients are normal sleepers, and enuresis can take place during any stage of sleep, but generally occurs when the bladder is filled to the equivalent of maximal daytime functional capacity. Bladder reservior capacity appears to be normal, and bladder instability is somewhat related with the pathology of nocturnal enuresis. However, enuretic patients have shown the lack of normal nocturnal increase in antidiuretic hormone levels, and nocturnal urine production increases up to 2-4 times volume of functional bladder capacity, which explains the need for bladder emptying. But behavioral approaches, especially Bell-alarm method, remain important in the treatment of primary enuresis.

Causal reasoning is actively studied not only by psychologists but, in recent years, also by cognitive scientists taking the Bayesian approach. This paper seeks to provide an overview of the recent trends in causal reasoning research with a focus on the power probabilistic contrast theory of causality, a major psychological theory on causal inference. The power probabilistic contrast theory (PPCT) assumes that a cause is a power that initiates or inhibits the result. This power is purported be understood through statistical correlation under certain conditions. The paper examines the supporting empirical evidence in the development of PPCT. Also, introduced are the theoretical dispute between the PPCT and the model based on Bayesian approach, and the current developments and implications of research on causal invariance hypothesis, which states that cause operates identically regardless of the context. Recent studies have produced experimental results that cannot be readily explained by existing empirical approach. Therefore, these results call for serious examination of the power theory of causality by researchers in neighboring fields such as philosophy, statistics, and artificial intelligence.

The purpose of this study was to make a general overview of SST-Based(Self-Service Technology Based) services and understand SST-Based service failure by users and service recovery strategy based on attribution theory. To achieve these purposes, the study reviewed literature related to the unique characteristics of SST-Based service and user studies of SST-Based service. As a result, it was found that there are no significant differences between general SST-Based service and library SST-Based service. In addition, this study suggested appropriate service recovery strategies of service failure by users through the understanding of attribution theory. The finding was that the most important SST-Based service recovery strategy is to improve technical service quality of the services.

In line with the establishment of the National Sejong Library, the main objective of this study is to construct a basic management plan to enable smooth operations of the library from its opening. To follow through with this goal, this paper analyzes the environment surrounding the National Sejong Library, puts forth new strategies to reinforce the policy information service, and suggests new development plans for the library's collection. This study examines the internal and external environment of the library through face-to-face interviews with library staff, while conducting surveys on public officials transferred to the city for suggestions on how to reinforce the policy information service. The vision of the National Sejong Library is to become a specialized resource institution in administrative policy, while also fulfilling the day-to-day needs of the community and serving as a supplementary record storage facility to the National Library. In order to reinforce the policy information service, it is crucial to digitize all policy-related theses, reports, and trend research, while establishing a firm network with other libraries in Korea and abroad to provide a wider range of policy files, local government policy documents, and other resources.

In this study, we study on the actual conditions of which Korean law school libraries are being operational. Because the successful law school library management means the success of the law school education, guarantees the success of expert education on our laws area. Therefore, this study propose the methods which is designing the content of the law school library website. As a result, an independent law school libraries are 21 (84%). During the law school library websites which are specialized contents with related the law are 15(71%). This website is based, menu of law school library's websites through the analysis of the content are analyzed. Based on this analysis, seven content composition elements that should be service to law school library is proposed in this study.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify on the attitudes toward the life support care among elderly people using Q methodology. Methods: Thirty-nine elderly people classified 34 selected Q statements into a shape of normal distribution using a 9 point scale. The obtained data were analyzed by using a PQ Method PC program. Results: Principal component analysis identified 4 types of the attitudes toward the life support care among elderly people. Type I is "Situational & Self-determination linear type", type II is "Destiny & Life support care denied type", type III is "Avoidant & Family decision emphasis type" and type IV is "Respect for life & life support care approved type". Most of elderly people have been attitude that wish to receive honor their own decisions toward the prolongation treatment. Conclusion: The findings indicate a need to policy guidelines and public information that express self-determination of elderly people.
