This study aims to examine the level of fear and the influential factors affecting their dental fear and to utilize the result as the basic materials in the dental management. The subjects were the students from a middle school located in Cheongju-City. The school was selected by convenient sampling and self-answered questionnaire was filled in by the students for a week from December 19th 2011. The survey result showed that 77 male students and 169 female students(total 246 students) answered 'yes' to the question 'Have you ever felt fear when you visited a dentist?' among 475 students who had visited a dentist in the past. The distribution of responses in each category of fear was examined by frequency analysis. The study results showed significant difference in the item of 'causing irritation during the dental treatments' between male students and female students (p<0.05). Converting the level of fear into scores after marking the answers, the score of male students was 52.0 points and the score of female students was 58.53 showing the score of female students was significantly higher in statistics. Moreover, the fear score of female students for the category 'causing irritation during the dental treatments' was also significantly higher in statistics(p<0.05). Therefore, these results should be reflected to the dental care environments in order for the adolescent to reduce the dental anxiety and fear.

3~5 족 반도체 물질인 phosphorus 화합물 중 대표적인 InAlP 삼종화합물은 작은 굴절률, 큰 밴드갭, GaAs와 lattice 일치 때문에 큰 주목을 받고 있고, p-type high electron mobility transistors(p-HEMT), laser diodes 등의 고속 전자소자 및 광전 소자에 응용이 가능한 매우 중요한 물질이다. 최적의 소자 응용기술을 위해서는, 정확한 광물성 연구가 수행되어야 하지만 InxAl1-xP 화합물에 대한 유전율 함수 및 전자전이점 등의 연구는 미흡한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 1.5~6.0 eV 에너지 영역에서 각기 다른 In 조성비를 갖는 InxAl1-xP 화합물의 가유전율 함수 ${\varepsilon}={\varepsilon}_1+i{\varepsilon}_2$와 전자전이점 데이터를 보고한다. GaAs 기판 위에 molecular beam epitaxy (MBE)를 이용하여 InxAl1-xP (x=0.000, 0.186, 0.310, 0.475, 0.715, 0.831, 1.000) 박막을 성장하였고 타원편광분석기를 이용하여 유전율 함수를 측정하였다. 또한 실시간 화학적 에칭을 통하여 시료 표면에 자연산화막을 제거함으로써 순수한 InAlP의 유전율 함수를 측정할 수 있었고, 측정된 유전율 함수를 이차미분하여 In 조성비에 따른 전자전이점을 얻을 수 있었다. 얻어진 전자전이점 값을 이용하여 linear augmented Slater-type orbital method (LASTO) 를 통해 이론적 전자 밴드 구조 계산을 하였고, 이를 바탕으로 $E_0$, $E_1$, $E_2$ 전이점 지역의 여러 전자전이점($E_1$, $E_1+{\Delta}_1$, $E_0'$, $E_0'+{\Delta}_0'$, $E_2$, $E_2'$)의 특성을 정의할 수 있었고, $E_0'$과 $E_2$ 전이점의 에너지 값이 In 조성비가 증가함에 따라 서로 교차함을 발견할 수 있었다. 타원 편광 분석법을 이용한 유전율 함수 및 전자전이점 연구는 InAlP의 광학적 데이터베이스를 확보하는 성과와 더불어 새로운 디바이스 기술 및 광통신 산업에도 유용한 정보가 될 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of quality of life (QoL) and its related factors in patients with Korean Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). With data collected by Korea National Health and Nutrition Survey in 2013, general and disease-related variables, pulmonary function test, and EuroQol-5Dimension (EQ-5D) were analyzed. The mean of EQ-5D index was 0.916 in patients with COPD and 0.941 in non-COPD. The EQ-5D index and its sub dimensions (mobility, self-care, usual activity, pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression) of COPD patients were significantly lower than that of non-COPD. However, difference in COPD patients' airway limitation was significant only for self-care of EQ-5D (${\chi}^2=9.50$, p=.013). The related factors of QoL in COPD patients were age, gender, level of education, quartile of household income, smoking status, and number of comorbid diseases. Based on the results, it is important to pay close attention to COPD patients' QoL as well as comprehensive interventions which possibly improve their QoL.

In this study, we examine the palatability and physicochemical properties of rice in the year, when there was 10% increase in yield compared to normal year due to daily temperature range and sunshine hours. The results of the analysis of rice yield over the last 20 years (1993-2012) showed 10% difference between the yield in 2000, which was normal, and that in 2001. With regard to the crop weather condition during the ripening period in 2001 compared to 2000, the daily range and sunshine hours were higher, but the mean temperature was similar. The rice yield in 2001 was 9.8% higher than that in 2000 due to the increased number of spikelets per panicles and ratio of ripened grain. In terms of chemical traits, protein, Mg, and K contents decreased in 2001 compared to 2000, but amylose content increased. Trough and final viscosity assessed with a Rapid Visco Analyser were significantly higher in 2001 than 2000. The quality of cooked rice was measured through the Toyo Mido Meter Glossiness Value (TGV) instead of a palatability score because a sensory test produces relative comparison values rather than absolute values. The correlation coefficients between the sensory evaluation parameters and the TGV in several rice materials harvested in two years showed a highly significant positive correlation ($r=0.81^{**}-0.89^{**}$, n=27-47). TGV was also significantly higher in 2001 than in 2000. The results suggested that the palatability of cooked rice was good in 2001 with about 10% increase in rice yield compared to normal year in 2000 due to daily temperature range and sunshine hours.

The purposes of the study are to segment the American family restaurant market based on relational benefits and to compare each group's demographics, dining characteristics, relationship quality(consumer identification, switching costs, satisfaction, commitment), and relational outcomes(positive word-of-mouth intentions and share of purchases). 510 responses were collected from American family restaurant customers and analyzed using frequency analysis, EFA, reliability test, cluster analysis, MANOVA, discriminant analysis, chi-square test, and ANOVA. The results of the study found three different types of relational benefits: confidence, special treatment, and social benefits. The results of cluster analysis identified three market segments, namely, high relational benefits consumers, medium relational benefits consumers, and low relational benefits consumers. The three groups were different in terms of age(p<0.05) and level of education(p<0.05). In addition, high relational benefits consumers showed a higher level of relationship frequency(p<0.001), relationship quality(p<0.001), and relational outcomes(p<0.001), followed by medium and low relational benefits consumers. Overall, the results indicated that family restaurants need to deliver excellent relational benefits to customers in order to achieve desired relationship quality and relational outcomes. Managerial implications were provided.

Existing real-time signal control system was brought up typical problems which are supersaturated condition, point detection system and loop detection system. For that reason, the next generation signal control system of advanced form is required. Following thesis aimed at calculating queue length for the next generation signal control system to utilize basic parameter of signal control in crossing queue instead of the volume of real-time through traffic. Overflow saturated condition which was appeared as limit of existing system was focused to set-up range. Real-time location information of individual vehicle which is collected by GPS data. It converted into the coordinate to apply shock wave model with an linear equation that is extracted by regression model applied by a least square. Through the calculated queue length and link length by contrast, If queue length exceed the link, queue of downstream intersection is included as queue length that upstream queue vehicle is judeged as affecting downstream intersection. In result of operating correlation analysis among link travel time to judge confidence of extracted queue length, Both of links were shown over 0.9 values. It is appeared that both of links are highly correlated. Following research is significant using real-time data to calculate queue length and contributing to signal control system.

The study was descriptive survey research for establishment of patient safety culture in small and medium-sized hospitals as providing baseline data of educational program regarding safe medication and prevention of near miss on medication, checking influencing factors of nurses near miss experience on medication in small and medium-sized hospital. The collected data was analyzed by SPSS/WIN 20.0 program to obtain mean, frequency, x²-test, independent t-test, one-way ANOVA, logistic regression. The influencing factors of near miss experience on medication was working department and patient safety culture among general characteristic. The nurses who were working in general ward had lesser chance to experience near miss rather than nurses working in special department (Odds ratio:2.23, 95%, Confidence Interval: 1.07~4.67, p=.032). The 1 point higher in patient safety culture, the lesser chance to experience in near miss (Odds ratio: 2.24, 95% Confidence Interval: 1.02~4.95, p=.045). To sum up the result of this study, nurses working in special department had higher chance to experience near miss rather than nurses working in general wards. The higher patient safety culture awareness was the lower near miss was experienced. Thus, miss surveillance system for improvement of nurses' patient safety culture awareness should be developed. Moreover, educational program for medication considering nurses' career and department' character should be requested with simulation training considering and theory education.

이 연구의 목적은 각 분절의 마커세트와 무릎관절 중심 정의가 3차원 무릎 관절각을 산출하는데 얼마나 민감하게 영향을 미치는지를 연구하였다. 자료수집은 1명을 실험대상자로 하여 두 가지 형태의 각기 다른 분절의 정의와 무릎관절의 중심을 나타내는 반사마커들을 동시에 오른쪽 하지에 부착시켜 실험을 실시하였다. 실험대상자의 달리기동작 중 좌측으로 45도 방향전환동작의 지지기를 분석하였다. 이를 위해서 8대의 고속카메라들을 이용하였고 달리기속도는 4m/$sec{\pm}(10%)$로 통제하였다. 하지분절의 발분절에는 하나의 마커세트를, 정강이와 대퇴분절에는 두 가지의 다른 마커세트들을 부착시켰다. 발분절에는 3개의 마커를 신발의 뒷부분에 부착하였고 정강이분절을 정의하기 위하여 첫 번째 마커세트는 경골을 중심으로 3개의 마커들을 두 번째 마커세트는 비골을 중심으로 3개의 마커를 부착하였다. 대퇴분절의 마커세트를 정의하기 위하여 첫 번째 마커세트에는 대퇴골을 중심으로 3개의 마커를 두 번째 마커세트에는 대퇴근육을 중심으로 3개의 마커들을 부착하였다. 무릎관절중심을 정의하는데 두 가지 다른 정의가 적용되었다. 첫 번째 무릎중심을 무릎의 내측과 외측의 마커들을 통해 두 마커의 중심을 무릎관절의 중심으로 정의하였다. 두 번째 무릎중심정의는 무릎의 외측부분과 슬개골의 중심에 부착된 마커들로부터의 교차점을 무릎관절중심으로 산출하였다. 무릎관절의 각도를 산출하기 위해서 JCS(Joint Coordinate System)의 정의가 적용되었고 연구의 결과는 다음과 같았다. 두 가지의 다른 분절마커세트 사이에서 무릎의 신전(extension)과 굴곡(flexion)은 유사한 형태를 나타냈으며 최대 무릎굴곡(peak knee flexion)각에서 $4.746^{\circ}$의 차이를 나타냈다. 다른 분절마커세트 사이의 회전(rotation)각과 내전(adduction)/외전(abduction)에서는 서로 다른 형태를 나타내었고, 두 마커세트간 최대무릎외측회전(peak knee external rotation)각도에서는 $15.628^{\circ}$의 차이를 나타냈다. 또한, 각 분절마커세트 내에서 두 가지의 다른 무릎관절 중심의 정의가 얼마나 무릎도 산출에 영향을 미치는지를 비교했을 때 무릎의 최대외측회전(peak external rotation)각에서 차이를 나타내었다. 첫 번째 분절마커세트의 무릎관절중심정의의 형태변화에 따라 최대외측회전각은 $0.549^{\circ}$의 차이를 나타냈고, 두 번째 분절마커 세트에서 무릎관절중심정의의 형태변화에 따라 최대외측회전각은 $0.309^{\circ}$의 차이를 나타냈다. 이와 같이 분절을 나타내는 마커세트와 무릎관절중심정의의 형태변화에 따라 무릎간을 계산하는데 있어서 결과가 다르게 산출되었다. 즉, 관절각의 계산이 분절에 부착되는 마커의 정의 혹은 위치에 매우 민감하게 영향을 받았다. 따라서 연구자가 여러 실험대상자들을 대상으로 실험시 마커세트 혹은 마커들을 동일한 위치에 가깝게 부착하는 것이 마커부착으로부터 발생하는 실험오차를 줄일 수 있을 것이다.

Safe blast criteria based on the concept of scaled distances can be obtained from the statistical analysis on measured peak particle velocity data of blast vibrations. Two types of scaled distance widely used in Korea are the square root scaled distance (SRSD) and cube root scaled distance (CRSD). In contrast to SRSD scheme, however, the function of maximum charge per delay for CRSD increases without bound after the intersection point of these two functions despite of the similar goodness of fits. To prevent structural damage that may be caused by the excessive charge in the case of CRSD, it is suggested that CRSD be used within a specified distance slightly beyond the intersection point. On the other hand, there are several attempts that predict vibration level(VL) from the peak particle velocity(PPV) or estimate VL based on the scaled distances without considering their frequency spectra. It appears that these attempts are conducted in blasting contracts only for the purpose of satisfying the environment-related law, which mainly deals with the annoyance aspects of noises and vibrations in human life. But, in principle there could no correlation between peaks of velocity and acceleration over entire frequency spectrum. Therefore, such correlations or estimations should be conducted only between the waves with the same or very similar frequency spectra. Finally, it is a known fact that structural damage due to ground vibration is related to PPV level, the safety level criteria for structures should be defined by allowable PPV levels together with their zero crossing frequencies (ZCF).
