Nowadays the pursuit of health among people leads to the unceasing pursuit of healthy dishes. Although many kinds of ingredients which are not fatty are used in Korean dishes, Korean dishes has not been approved as healthy ones in foreign countries yet. This study considers the recognition of Korean dishes and Bibimbap. 299 Chinese students in Shenyang, China took part in this investigation. The results of this study state that 25 percent of respondents do not like Korean dishes while 27 percent of respondents do not like Bibimbap. And the respondents who dislike Korean dishes cite the reasons of its 'bad taste' and 'bad looks'. That is, in order to increase the popularity of Bibimbap and make Korean dishes as a domestic diet culture in China, we should know about the tastes and kinds of dishes that Chinese people like. Also, we should consider the reasons why Chinese people like and do not like, and then develop Bibimbap to make the majority of Chinese people like it.

This study pointed out that few studies focuses on potential business manpower in the food-service industry while the food-service industry is quickly growing in the field of business. In this respect, it classified the career aptitudes of potential business manpower into Realistic, Investigative, Artistic, Social, Enterprising, and Conventional according to Holland's(1997) career aptitudes. Then, Logistic Regression Analysis was implemented to determine how each career aptitude influences potential business manpower's determination to open a business. As a result, the aptitudes were arranged in the following order, starting with the one contributing to the strongest determination: Enterprising>Realistic>Social>Artistic>Investigative>Conventional. According to Holland's career aptitude classification, people with enterprising characters are generally entrepreneurs, politicians, and administrators. This study has also proved that enterprising people have the strongest determination to start business.

The purpose of this research was to conduct an empirical research on the relations between perceived satisfaction level and value, brand attitude and repurchase intention after receiving price discount in such brand coffee shops as Starbucks, Coffee Bean, Angel-In-Us, and Caffebene. To do this, surveys were conducted in those 4 brands of coffee shops, distributing 100 copies of questionnaire each, from December 1st to December 31st, 2012. A total of 400 copies were collected for the final analysis, and the results are as follows. The level of satisfaction with price discount policy was displayed as causing a significant positive influence on hedonic and utilitarian values, and the hedonic and utilitarian values were identified as causing a significant positive influence on brand attitude and repurchase intention. Additionally, it was shown that brand attitude caused a significant positive influence on repurchase intention. A further analysis revealed that the number of customers who do not utilize the discount policy was highest in Starbucks, while the number of customers who utilize stamp coupons was displayed as the highest in Coffee Bean. In case of Angel-In-Us, the number of customers who use other price discount policies instead of stamp coupons was displayed as the highest, while the number of customers who utilize other price discount policies along with stamp coupons was displayed as the highest in Caffebene. Moreover, the level of satisfaction with price discount policies was higher for customers who use discount policies compared to those who do not.

The concept of extraction in orthodontic treatment has been changed many times. Even today, criteria of extraction or nonextraction is still changing. In this study, changes depending on the evaluator's perception of treatment outcomes were compared in both extraction and nonextraction cases. In this study, premolar extracted 59 patients and nonextracted 60 patients, totally 119 patients who finished orthodontic treatment in Dankook University Dental Hospital orthodontic clinic were enrolled. Evaluation sections made up of specialists and laypersons assessed soft tissue traced from lateral cephalometric radiographs with visual analogue scale before and after the treatment. And the results were statistically analyzed. Thus, the conclusions drawn are as follows: 1. Average score is 5.76 in extraction, which is larger than 5.28 of nonextraction case. Improvement of facial profile was more favorably accepted in extraction case. 2. 5.875 in the group of specialists were higher evaluation than 5.165 in the group of layperson. 3. Specialists gave significantly higher ratings in the extraction than nonextraction. 4. A higher rating in extraction case of the layperson group has no significant difference with nonextraction case. 5. Nonextraction patients were given higher ratings from specialist group. 6. A higher rating of specialist group in extraction case has no significant difference with layperson group.

Objectives : The authors investigated the practice of sleep hygiene and its effectiveness in general population who had experienced insomnia. If we find the items which be little practiced but especially effective, we would establish empirical an and theoretical basis to design the treatment program for insomnia, therefore apply it in clinical practice. Methods : The 226 subjects who had experienced insomnia, were at the age above 18 in Seoul, Korea. The questionnaire included the demographic data, the experience of insomnia, and the practices and effects of sleep hygiene instruction. The interview was administered face to face by the investigators. Results : The subjects reported that they practiced many of the sleep hygiene items related with arousal in sleep setting, and that those items were effective. The items such as 'get regular exercise each day(H)', 'take a hot bath(H)', 'concentrate on the pleasant feeling of relaxation(A)' were not usually practiced, but these items were reported very effective for sleep. Conclusion : The findings suggested that there were sleep hygiene items which should be educated and directed to practice actively in treatment program for insomniacs. Some items, which were especially reported low practice but highly effective, would be recommended to be studied about each therapeutic effectiveness in follow-up studies.

This study investigated the bond characteristics of embedded deformed steel bar in donut type biaxial hollow slabs. The donut type hollow sphere make concrete inner cover formed between steel bar and hollow sphere due to the hollow shape and arrangement. Generally, inner cover was thinner than outer cover, and some part of donut type biaxial hollow slab has smaller inner cover thickness than $2.5d_b$. It was affected to the bond condition of deformed bar. Furthermore, inner cover thickness changes along the longitudinal deformed bar due to hollow shape. Therefore, donut type hollow slab was divided 3 regions according to the hollow shape such as insufficient region, transition region, sufficient region. Pull-out test were performed to find out the effect of bond condition by the region. Main parameters are inner cover thickness, embedded length and bond location. Bond characteristics of donut type biaxial hollow slab were confirmed through comparison of bond stress-slip relationship, maximum bond strength and bond stress distribution of each regions. And the calculation method of bond strength of donut type biaxial hollow slab was suggested based on the test results.

This study conducted uniaxial tension tests on D10, D19, D29, and D35 SD400 steel-grade rebar and evaluated the strain distributions and necking regions to provide basic data for resolving differences between evaluation methods. Owing to the limitations of the existing measurement methods, this study conducted detailed evaluations of the strain of the rebar and necking regions using image processing, which is almost limitless on the measurement range and can easily distinguish measurement regions. The strain was concentrated at the region where necking occurred when the rebar approached its ultimate strength, which was successfully confirmed through image processing. The correlation between the length of the necking region and the diameter of the rebar could be analyzed by evaluating the necking region that occurs during the ultimate behavior of the rebar. According to the results, the length of the necking region is around 1.5~2.5 times the diameter of the rebar.

This study aims to find out the determinants of burnout in order to better understand the burnout process among social workers. For this purpose, a hypothetical model which explains the relationships among 8 job-related stressors (role ambiguity, role overload, difficulties in solving problems of clients, conflict with the clients, lack of support from the supervisor, closed communication pattern, bureaucracy, and lack of accountability), 4 mediators (job-stress, professional role performance, abiding by the agency policy and partiality in service delivery), and 4 dimensions of burnout (physical exhaustion, psychological exhaustion, depersonalization and personal accomplishment) was developed. Using the data collected from 207 social workers, the hypothetical model was tested. For data analysis, a path analysis was used, and the best-fitting model was found(df=66, $x^2$=63.250, GFI=0.962, CFI=1.00). As a result of this study, the following results were found. Burnout among social workers was increased by the 6 job-related stressors(role ambiguity, role overload, difficulties in solving problems of clients, conflict with the clients, lack of support from the supervisor, closed communication pattern). Job-stress, the mediating variable of the emotional path to burnout, increased professional role performance and the abiding by agency policy, and finally increased burnout. On the other hand, professional self-efficacy (which consists of professional role performance, abiding by agency policy and partiality in service delivery), the mediationg variable of the cognitive path to burnout, reduced burnout when the professional role performance was high, and abiding by agency policy and partiality in service delivery were low.

Anticonvulsant hypersensitivity syndrome (AHS) is an uncommon, but potentially fatal and mutilsystemic disorder that occurs after exposure to the arene oxide-producing anticonvulsants-carbamzepine, phenobarbital and phenytoin. The multisystemic reactions include fever, skin eruptions, lymphadenopathy, hematologic abnormality and hepatitis. The diagnosis of AHS is made by history of drug exposure and clinical course. No specific treatments are proved as benefit except discontinuing the offending drug and trying the steroids in some severe cases. We report a case of carbamazepine induced anticonvulsant hypersensitivity syndrome characterized by skin rash, eosinophilia, subcarinal lymphadenopathy and eosinophilic pneumonia. The patient was resolved completely after only discontinuing carbamazepine.

Quality attributes of fresh-cut sesame leaf (Perilla frutescens var. japonica) as affected by hydrocooling and packing were investigated in terms of weight loss, respiration, vitamin C content, total chlorophyll content, microbial load and sensory properties during storage at 4 and $10^{\circ}C$. Fresh sesame leaf was trimmed and washed with cold water (1, $5^{\circ}C$) as well as tap water ($13^{\circ}C$) for 30 sec 3 times and then packaged in PP (polypropylene) film bag and PETE (polyethylene terephthalate) tray, and stored for 9 days at 4 and $10^{\circ}C$. Weight loss was decreased by washing and packing. Respiration rate was increased slowly over the storage at $4^{\circ}C$. Vitamin C content and total chlorophyll contents of sesame leaf packaged within PETE tray decreased gradually during storage. Hydrocooling and packing within PETE tray treatments resulted in approximately $1{\sim}2\;log\;CFU/g$ reduction of microbial load.
