Purpose: This study compared the differences in health and dietary characteristics between middle-aged men and women according to their health-related quality of life. Methods: This study used the data from the 2019 and 2021 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES). The participants were men (n = 1,571) and women (n = 2,179) aged 40-59. A health-related Quality of Life Instrument with eight items (HINT-8) was used to measure the health-related quality of life. The participants were divided into four groups based on their HINT-8 total scores (high, mid-high, mid-low, and low). The general and health characteristics, mental health, and dietary behaviors were compared according to the quality of life. Results: Men with a lower quality of life had lower incomes, were more likely to be single, smoked and drank more, and perceived themselves as slim or obese. Women with a lower quality of life had a higher proportion of older age, obesity, lower education and income, hypercholesterolemia, and hypertriglyceridemia. Both men and women with a lower quality of life had higher proportions of subjectively perceiving poor health, weight gain over the past year, and considering themselves as obese. Both men and women with a lower quality of life had lower consumption frequencies of vegetables/mushrooms/seaweed and fruits. Conclusion: Both men and women with lower health-related quality of life had lower incomes, higher rates of perceiving their health as poor, and consumed vegetables/ mushrooms/seaweed and fruits less frequently, but they showed different characteristics in other aspects. Therefore, policy development tailored to men and women is necessary.

우리나라의 과거 기상자료 분석결과를 보면 최근 10년(1999~2008년)과 과거 30년(1971~2000년)의 자료를 비교하였을 때 연 평균 강수량과 기온이 각각 9.1%, 0.6$^{\circ}C$ 상승하였고 2010년 전 지구 기온은 $14.52^{\circ}C$로 20세기 평균인 $13.90^{\circ}C$보다 $0.62^{\circ}C$ 높아 기온 관측이 시작된 1880년 이래 최고를 기록하였으며(2005년과 공동 1위), 2010년 북반구 기온편차는 $0.73^{\circ}C$로 역대 기온 관측 사상 가장 높았고 남반구 또한 $0.61^{\circ}C$로 상위 6위에 위치되었다. 또한 우리나라에서는 겨울철 이상 저온 현상을 경험하기도 하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 우리나라 전역 기상청 60개 지점 1980년 1월 1일부터 2009년 12월 31 일까지의 자료를 바탕으로 기록 일 최저 기온 및 기록 일 최고 기온의 발생빈도를 분석하고자 하였다. 확률이론에 따르면 동일한 분포를 갖는 확률변수의 독립적인 시계열의 경우 최대값 또는 최소값의 발생빈도는 ��/n의 비율로 감소하게 된다. 여기서 /n은 관측이 시작된 시점부터 해당 시점까지 자료의 수이다. 본 연구의 경우에는 특정 지점의 특정 시점에 관측된 일 최대 기온이 동일한 분포를 갖는 독립적인 시계열을 이룬다고 한다면(즉, 증가 또는 감소 추세가 있지 않다면), 어떤 해에 관측된 일 최고 기온이 그 동안에 특정 시점에 관측된 일 최고 기온들보다 높을 확률은 1/n이 될 것이다. 그러나 만약 일 최대(또는 최저) 기온의 기록경신 발생빈도가 감소 비율로부터 유의하게 이탈하게 된다면, 이는 일 최고(또는 최저) 기온의 분산이 커지거나 작아지는 현상이 벌어진 경우이거나 일 최고(또는 최저) 기온의 평균이 어떤 추세를 갖게 되는 경우가 될 것이다. 그 결과 기록 일 최저 기온 발생빈도에 대한 기록 일 최고 기온 발생빈도의 비는 현재 약 2.5정도의 값이 나오는 것으로 분석되었으며 이러한 결과는 1980년 이후로 기록 일 최고 기온의 발생빈도는 /n의 비율로 감소하지만 기록 일 최저 기온의 발생빈도는 /n의 비율보다 낮게 발생하기 때문인 것으로 파악되었다. 이러한 과거 자료의 분석을 통하여 지금까지 진행되어 오고 있는 기후변화의 패턴을 보다 명확하게 인식하고자 하였으며, 추후 다양한 기후수치실험으로부터 도출된 결과들의 신뢰성을 평가할 때 기초적인 비교 자료를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.

This paper examines credit spreads in Korea corporate market using one of structural models, the mean reverting leverage ratio model (Collin-Dufresne and Goldstein (2001)). Compared to the actual credit spreads, we show that the credit spreads induced by the model are overpredicted. We also investigate the systematic errors that cause the over-pre-diction of credit spreads using the t-test. We show that the systematic errors are affected by the current leverage ratio and asset volatility.

Using 1996 annual observations for 69 bus firms in Seoul, this paper measures firm-level efficiency with data envelopment analysis(DEA) and identifies firm characteristics indicative of differential efficiency in these firms with Tobit regression analysis. The paper then conceptualizes that these firms produce two kinds of output(city/seat bus kilometers or city/seat bus Passengers) using four inputs (labor vehicle, fuel and maintenance). The findings show that, on an average, these firms have only a little input saving potential of 0.9 percent, while not a little output increasing potential of 12.9 percent. On the other hand, it is discovered that these firms operate more efficiently with a lower ratio of maintenance employees to total employees. Furthermore, it appears that both the ratio of seat buses to total buses and average speeds positively affect efficiency in this industry.

Curricular noticing is about how teachers understand the content and pedagogical opportunities inherent in curriculum materials. Since the enacted curriculum differs depending on which aspect of the curriculum material is paid attention to and how to interpret it, it is necessary to focus on Curricular Attending and Curricular Interpreting in Curricular Noticing for enhancing the teaching expertise of preservice teachers. First, this study categorized the objects that preservice elementary mathematics teachers attended when planning the lesson for rate. Second, in order to find out the reason for paying attention to those objects, it was analyzed what factors were related to interpret. By discussing the results, implications were drawn on how to use Curricular Noticing in preservice teacher education to enhance the pedagogical design competency of preservice elementary mathematics teachers.

This study examines the conditions and causes of income inequality and seeks assignments for mitigating income inequality. An analysis of the conditions and causes of income inequality is summarized as follows. First, income inequality, which rapidly increased after the economic crisis, increased and reduced repeatedly during 1999-2004, and remained a level in 2005 as high as that of the year directly after the economic crisis. Second, an analysis of the causes of income inequality by utilizing the long-term data(1985-2004) shows that unemployment rate, nonstandard employment rate, and the rising rate of land prices positively affect income inequality. Third, an analysis of the causes of income inequality by utilizing the data before and after the economic crisis(1995-2004) demonstrates that unemployment rate, nonstandard employment rate, and the workers' income ratio between large enterprises and small enterprises positively affect income inequality. Fourth, the rising rate of land prices which significantly affects income inequality in the data of 1985-2004 does not affect income equality in the data of 1995-2004, and the workers' income ratio between large enterprises and small enterprises which does not affect income inequality in the data of 1985-2004 significantly affect income equality in the data of 1995-2004. These results suggest several implications for mitigating income inequality. First, alternative plans to reduce unemployment rate must be prepared. Second, policies to reduce nonstandard employment rate should be established. Third, programs to stabilize or lower the land prices must be deliberated. Fourth, a master-plan to support small to medium enterprises must be carried out in order to reduce the wage differentials between large enterprises and small to medium enterprises.

A 3.5 kHz or chirp sub-bottom profiling survey is widely used in the marine geological and engineering purpose exploration. However, swells in the sea degrade the quality of the survey data. The horizontal continuity of profiler data can be enhanced and the quality can be improved by correcting the influence of the swell. Accurate detection of sea bottom location is important in correcting the swell effect. In this study, we tried to pick sea bottom locations by finding the position of crossing a threshold of the maximum value for the raw data and transformed data of envelope or energy ratio. However, in case of the low-quality data where the sea bottom signals are not clear due to sea wave noise, automatic sea bottom detection at the individual traces was not successful. We corrected the mispicks for the low quality data and obtained satisfactory results by picking a sea bottom within a range considering the previous average of sea bottom, and excluding unreliable big-difference picks. In case of trace by trace picking, fewest mispicks were found when using energy ratio data. In case of picking considering the previous average, the correction result was relatively satisfactory when using raw data.

Sea ice is generally accepted as an important factor to understand the process of earth climate changes and is the basis of earth system models for analysis and prediction of the climate changes. To continuously monitor sea ice changes at kilometer scale, it is demanded to create more accurate grid data from the current, limited sea ice data. In this paper we described a downscaling method for Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) Sea Ice Concentration (SIC) from 10 km to 1 km resolution using a weighting scheme of sea ice days ratio derived from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sea ice cover product that has a high correlation with the SIC. In a case study for Okhotsk Sea, the sea ice areas of both data (before and after downscaling) were identical, and the monthly means and standard deviations of SIC exhibited almost the same values. Also, Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) analyses showed that three kinds of SIC data (ERA-Interim, original AMSR2, and downscaled AMSR2) had very similar principal components for spatial and temporal variations. Our method can apply to downscaling of other continuous variables in the form of ratio such as percentage and can contribute to monitoring small-scale changes of sea ice by providing finer SIC data.
