The Sample was consist of 216 female adults who were selected with my convenience from residing women in and around Seoul, Korea. The result were as fellowing; According to the factor analysis of their foot discomfort, it is divided into 3 factors: the discomfort of whole body (factor 1), the discomfort of foot sole (factor 2), and the discomfort of toes (factor 3). And the foot part of discomfort is more frequent in the order of the big toe, 2·3 metatarsal bones, and the little toe. As the age gets older, the discomfort of foot sole and toes are reported more frequently, and, particularly, more student and office employees have the discomfort of whole body while more sales women and housewives have the discomfort of foot sole. In terms of the shoe types, the higher the hill height, the more the discomfort of foot sole with wearing the sharp toe. As the wearing time is longer, the discomfort of foot sole increases. Being related to the from patterns, the broad and short type has more of the discomfort of foot sole, the flat foot feel more discomfort from the entire body and the sole. Walking with leaning toward the frontal the discomfort on toes and sole increases.

최근 양안식 3D 디스플레이의 시청 안정성 문제가 대두됨에 따라, 어떠한 요인들이 시각피로와 시각적 불편함을 야기하는지 밝히는 연구의 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 시각적 불편함은 양안식 3D 영상에서 과도한 양안 시차, 양안 시차의 빠른 변화, 양안 불일치 등에 의해 야기될 수 있다. 그러나 시각적 불편함은 시각시스템의 복잡한 메커니즘에 의한 결과이므로 알려진 양안 시차 등의 요인 외에도 밝혀지지 않은 요인들이 더 존재할 수 있다. 본 논문은 기존 연구로부터 시각적 불편함과 관련 있을 것으로 추정되는 요인으로 시각자극의 너비와 시각적 불편함에 대한 민감도를 선택하였다. 이들의 영향을 밝히기 위한 실험으로서, 편안한 양안 시차 범위 내에서 시각자극의 너비와 시각적 불편함에 대한 민감도에 따라 양안 융합 시간이 어떻게 달라지는지를 관찰하였다. 실험 결과로부터 편안한 양안 시차 범위 내에서도 시각자극의 너비와 시각적 불편함에 대한 민감도에 따라 양안 융합 시간이 크게 달라짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들은 시각자극의 너비가 주요한 시각적 불편함의 3D 콘텐츠 요인이 될 수 있음을 암시한다.

소비자예치금제를 도입하는 경우 적정예치금을 설정하기 위해서는 용기재활용에 따른 소비자 불편비용의 산출이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 폐음료용기에 의한 외부효과를 내재화하는 정책적 수단의 하나인 소비자예치금제 동에서 소비자의 용기반환에 따른 불편비용을 추정하는 방법 및 실험적 분석결과를 제시하였다. 비시장재화의 가치평가에 널리 응용되고 있는 가상적 가치평가법(Contigent Valuation Method)을 이용하여 용기반환시 보상받고자 하는 수취의사액, 즉 불편비용에 상응하는 액수를 추정한 결과 용기반환장소 까지의 거리가 멀어짐에 따라 소비자의 불편비용은 증가하고 용기 하나당 평균 16원의 불편비용이 발생하는 것으로 나타났다.

관찰적 작업자세 평가기법은 각 관절의 자세를 관찰 기록하여 자세 부하를 평가하는 실용적인 인간공학적 작업평가 기법이다. 본 연구에서는 각 관절의 불편도 지수와 전신의 자세 부하의 관계성을 모형화하고, 전신의 작업자세 부하를 평가하는 방법론을 제시하였다. 자동차 조립공정의 대표적인 작업자세들을 대상으로 하여 정적인 자세의 심물리학적 부하를 전신에 대하여 평가하였다 전신의 불편도는 비중립 자세를 취하고 있는 각 관절의 조합에 의해 영향을 받는다. 특히, 자동차 조립공정에서는 어깨 높이 이상의 작업을 대상으로 하는 경우에 어깨, 목, 허리, 손목 등에서 비중립 자세를 동시에 취하여 전신의 불편도가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 평가된 전신의 불편도와 각 자세의 관절별 불편도 지수의 관계를 다중선형회귀모형으로 모형화하는 것이 타당한 것으로 나타났다. 모형에서 전신 불편도에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 관절은 어깨이며, 손목의 영향이 가장 적은 것으로 나타났다. 이 모형을 통해 작업자세 부하를 정량적으로 평가하는 것이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

This study aims to analyze the relevance between oral health practices and oral discomforts of the elderly in an urban-rural area by surveying the elderly in welfare centers for the Elderly-continued oral health care program. The result shows that the elderly brush their teeth under regular oral care, and practice oral health life by scaling for the prevention of periodontal disease. Most of the elderly who drink alcohol have experienced implant care and tend to quit drinking after the treatment, and seemed to get their oral discomfort relieved. However, no relevance is found between implant experiences and social discomfort. Furthermore, the elderly who had bad breath expressed pronunciation, taste, pain and chewing discomfort, and social discomfort (P>.05). The educational level of the elderly did not have an impact on oral discomfort, but smoking, chewing and bad breath discomfort seemed to be related to social discomfort(P>.05). Therefore, since oral discomfort of the elderly causes social discomfort which decreases their quality of living, we recommend oral health departments of local governments to help the elderly maintain happy lives by continuing to study the practical use of reducing oral discomfort.

In 2015, Constitutional court of Korea declared that the Resident Registration Act was unconformable to Constitution. Therefore, the Resident Registration Act have to amend the article before 2018 for allowing to change one's Resident Registration Number. The most expensive cost to change one's Resident Registration Number System is the uncomfortable cost of changing the Number. This study invests the uncomfortable cost of changing the Number by Willingness to pay Method. In result, the cost of changing all 13 numbers would \ 160,000, the cost of changing 7 numbers would \ 108,000, and the cost of making Second Registration Number would \ 110,000. This result could be used to analyze the B/C ratio of changing the Resident Registration Number System.

This paper qualitatively analyzes the stereo 3D content factors causing viewer's discomfort. For this, we perform a subjective test that each subject strokes a specific key whenever he or she feels discomfort during watching stereo 3D contents. Also we extract the quantitative values of the factors in the 3D contents to obtain the temporal changes of the factors. Those two sets of data are used to analyze the contents to find the content factors which cause viewer's discomfort. The factors to be considered are the amount and the frequency of the disparity change, story of the contents, situation or environments of a scene, movement and position of the image or camera, color and luminance information as well as disparities themselves. Most researches have dealt with each factor causing viewer's discomfort but this paper focuses on the composite factors rather than each of them. That is, this paper deals with the various strong and weak factors and their composites causing viewer's discomfort in addition to the big disparities which have been mostly so far.

The purpose of this study is to find out the use and inconvenience of informatization devices according to the disability of the elderly. A total 10,097 data from the elderly survey were used to analyze the differences in the possession and use of information devices, usage capabilities, and injustice according to disability. Descriptive analysis was conducted to find out general characteristics and disability-related characteristics. chi-square tests were conducted to find out the difference in informatization and communication device usage ability and information device usage inconvenience according to disability. The p-value was set at 0.001. As a result of the study, the elderly with disabilities in Korea had lower smartphones and tablet PCs than the non-disabled elderly. In terms of daily inconvenience, the elderly with disabilities often responded that they had no experience or did not know about the inconvenience of online reservations for trains/high-speed buses/intercity buses, ordering kiosks at restaurants, using ATMs, or reducing bank stores. Taken together, the ability of the elderly with disabilities in Korea to possess and use informatization devices is very low and they feel more inconvenience than the non-disabled elderly. It is necessary to improve the ability to possess and use informatization devices for the elderly with disabilities in the rapidly progressing aging of the disabled and the informatization of our society.

The purpose of this study is to test the effect of smart-phone addiction on school adjustment. In detail, this study focus on mediating effect of psychological distress. For this purpose, Data Collected on 375 students at 4 high schools in the capital area were used in the analysis. Correlation analysis was conducted to find out the relationship between smart-phone addiction, school adjustment, psychological distress. To find out if smart-phone addiction and school adjustment are mediated by the relationship between psychological distress, the model was tested using a structural equation. The results of the study were as follows: The smart-phone addiction is found to have an adverse effect on high school students' school adaptation and a positive effect on psychological distress. And the results of the verification of the structural model showed a significant mediating effect of psychological distress in the relationship between smart-phone addiction and school adjustment. Based on the results of this study, significance and implications were presented.
