This paper demonstrates empirically that individuals who monitor indicators of their current cardiovascular health status by undergoing medical examinations are more likely to invest in their own health than those who do not observe such monitoring protocols. Using data from the 2001 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of Korea in a structural econometric model, this paper attempts to control the endogeneity problem inherent to the individual decision as to whether to undergo medical examinations, and provides estimation results showing that increased individual health awareness via medical examinations exerts a statistically significant positive effect on health investments. From the policy perspective, the estimation results of this paper may provide a rationale supporting the health policy of free provision of health examination services to the insured via National Health Insurance.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the industrial accidents data with survival model. EDA approach is used to explore the relationship between two variables and among three variables for the past 10 years of industrial accidents data. Survival models are also tried. Survival curve drops more rapidly for the business with fewer employees as time goes by. Industrial accidents occur more often as the total number of industrial accidents gets larger and as the number of employees gets smaller. Agriculture, fishing and forestry have a higher level of industrial accidents than construction while service industry and 'transportation·storage and telecommunication' have a fewer number of industrial accidents than construction. Korea Safety and Health Agency's and Ministry of Employment and Labor's involvement were not effective but Civilian's was. Recurrent event data analysis reveals all most the same result as for non-recurrent data analysis.

Most warship combat systems inquire human operator to control several sensor and another equipments as well as decision-modeling. For this reason, many researches with multi-agent based M&S (Modeling and Simulation) have been increasingly conducted. However there cannot find any researches of M&S based analysis for anti-submarine warfare that requires a high level of mission complexity between multiple platforms. In this research, we have been developed various combat platform models such as warship, submarine and helicopter, etc. In order to apply the multi-agent-based M&S technology to the anti-submarine warfare i.e. a HVU (High Value Unit) escort mission scenario. Then we have successfully analyzed the measures of effectiveness according to the different tactics and different situations. In future, the defence engineer maybe employ our methodology and tools to analyze actual tactical problem by simply inserting actual data into our agent model.

최근 수자원 이용량의 증가 및 수자원 공급의 부족에 따라 대안으로 제시되고 있는 지하수 이용은 매년 크게 증가하고 있다. 내륙 지역의 지하수 개발 시와 비교할 때 해안 지역의 지하수 개발에는 해수침투 현상에 대하여 추가적 고려가 필요하다. 알려진 바와 같이 해안 지역의 과잉 양수와 해수면 상승 으로 해수침투가 더욱 깊이 침투하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 대해 정략적인 해수 침투길이 산정과 더불어 해수침투를 허용가능한 범위 내로 제한 시키는 지하수 개발이 필요하다. 해수침투 저감 공법에는 저투수차수벽 설치, 담수주입공법, 해수양수공법으로 크게 3가지로 구분할 수 있다. 저투수차수벽의 해수침투 저감 효율은 크지만 비용이 비싸다는 단점으로 본 연구에서 제외시켰다. 담수주입공법은 대수층에 담수를 주입하여 해수침투를 저감시키는 공법으로 인근에 양질의 수원을 필요로 하는 단점이 있다. 해수양수는 해안가에 양수정을 설치하여 해수침투를 저감시키지만 양수정에서의 담수가 혼합되어 담수낭비가 생기는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 해안지하수의 해수침투를 저감시키기 위한 방법중 담수주입과 해수양수공법의 효율을 검증하고 각각 공법의 장단점을 비교하였다. 지하수 경계면 모델을 이용하여 각각의 수리수문 변수들이 미치는 영향과 해수침투 정도를 사례별로 연구하였다. 담수주입공법의 경우 담수주입량 많을수록 해수침투가 저감되는 경향이 있지만 최적의 담수주입량을 찾는데 목적이 있다. 해수양수공법에는 해수양수량이 증가하고 해수양수정의 위치가 해안선에 접할수록 해수침투 저감 효과가 있었다. 담수주입공법과 해수양수공법을 해수침투 저감을 위해 해안가에 적용할 경우 해당 지역의 특성을 면밀히 분석하여 적용해야 효과를 볼 수 있다.

This study attempted to verify the structural model of the effects of stress, self-efficacy, and self-control on smartphone addiction in University students. The subjects of this study were 440 University students in G and P city. Results, First the most influential variables on smartphone addiction were self-control, followed by stress, and two variables explained explanation about smartphone addiction in 34%. Second, self-efficacy had a positive effect on self-control and stress had a negative effect. Both variables had an indirect effect on smartphone addiction through self-control. In groups less than 4 hours and above, there was a partial regulation effect because of differences between groups in the smartphone addiction pathway coefficients of stress and self-efficacy. Therefore, in order to reduce smartphone addiction, it is important to find ways to reduce stress and increase self-control and self-efficacy, and necessary to develop various programs and tailor educational interventions for each individual situation.

The purpose of this study was to verify the factors influencing the happiness index for elderly patients hospitalized in nursing hospitals with a structural model. A survey was conducted on 237 people in 6 nursing hospitals in G city from July 1 to August 15, 2018, and analyzed with SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 programs. As a result of the research, the direct effect on the happiness index is the greatest factor, Next, perceived health status, economic status, and nursing satisfaction are in order, and the explanatory power is 66%. Both direct and indirect economic conditions were found to have a significant effect, and hospitalization period only had indirect effects through helplessness and nursing satisfaction. Therefore, development and application of various programs that can reduce the feeling of helplessness and improve the perceived health status. It is believed that an integrated management system, such as support system support and nursing intervention, suitable for each individual situation is needed.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of socioeconomic deprivation in single-person households on depression and to identify the moderating effect of age. To achieve this, data from 2,969 individuals aged 20 and older living in single-person households were analyzed using the 17th wave of the Korean Welfare Panel Study(2022). Socioeconomic deprivation was measured by 15 items related to six domains: food, housing, social security, economic status, social exclusion, and health and medical care. Depression was measured using the CESD-11 scale, while age was considered a continuous variable. The results showed a significant relationship between socioeconomic deprivation and depression, with age playing a moderating role. Specifically, socioeconomic deprivation had a stronger negative influence on depression thean older single-person households. Based on these findings, it is suggested that policy and practical interventions should take into account age-related changes in the life course when addressing the impact of socioeconomic deprivation on depression in single-person households.

This paper investigates the cost structure ot the Korea and Japan railroad industry with respect to density, scale and scope economies as well as productivity growth rate using a generalized trans)og multiproduct cost function model. The paper then assumes that the Korea and Japan railway companies pi·educe three outputs (incumbent railway passenger-kilometers. Shinkansen passenger-kilometers, ton-kilometers of freight) using four input factors (labor, fuel, maintenance, rolling stock and capital). The specified cost function includes foul other independent variables: track lengths to reflect network effects, two dummies to reflect nation and ownership effects, and time trend as a proxy for technical change. The simultaneous equation system consisting of a cost function and three input share equations is estimated with the Zellner's iterative seemingly unrelated regression. The unbalanced panel data used in the paper, a total of 154 observations. are collected from the annual records of the Korea National Railroad (KNR) for the yews $1977{\sim}2003$, Japan National Railways (JNR) for the years $1977{\sim}1984$. seven Japan Railways (JR's) for the years $1987{\sim}2003$. The findings show that the Korean and Japanese railways exhibit product-specific and overall economies of density but product-specific diseconomies of scale with respect to incumbent railway passenger-kilometers, Shinkansen-kilometers and ton-kilometers. However, the railways experience mild overall economies of scale which result from economies of scope associated with the joint production of incumbent railway/Shinkansen and feight, freight/incumbent railway and Shinkansen except Shinkansen/incumbent railway and freight. In addition, the economies of density and scale in the KNR, JR east, JR central, and JR west companies at the point of the years $1990{\sim}2003$ average is generally analogous to the above results at the point of sample average. There also appear to be economies of ssope associated with the joint Production of the incumbent railway and Shinkansen in JR central but diseconomies of scope in JR East and JR West. The findings also indicate that the productivity growth rate of the privately-owned JR's is larger than that of the government-owned KNR.
