This study investigated the effects of preschool teachers' ethical awareness and teaching flow on the teacher-preschooler interaction based on the participation of 345 preschool teachers in Chungcheongnam-do and Gyeonggi-do. The collected data were analyzed by correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis. The results of the study were as follows: First, both teachers' ethical awareness and teaching flow were strongly correlated with the teacher-preschooler interaction, and the correlation between sub-variables was also significant. Second, analysis of the relative strength of teachers' ethical awareness and teaching flow in the explanation of the teacher-preschooler interaction revealed that intrinsic motivation as a sub-variable among teaching flow was the most prominent predictor of the teacher-preschooler interaction, followed by ethics for preschoolers among teachers' ethical awareness as well as specific plans among teaching flow. The findings of this study suggest future directions for teacher education based on newly identified factors affecting teacher-preschooler interactions, desirable teacher-preschooler interactions, and implications for improving childcare quality.

This study tried to identify major factors which determine repurchase intentions. We consider customer satisfaction, service quality, switching cost and consumption emotions which are recently proposed in the related literatures. To test them empirically, we collected 374 questionnaires among 620 from corporate customers of major banks and 112 from employees of a major bank in corporate banking and analyzed them by LISREL 8.12.. The result of this study can be summed up as follows. First the most important determinant factor in repurchase intentions is customer satisfaction. Second, it is desirable to measure service quality not only in terms of 'process service quality', a process of service delivery to customers, but also 'outcome service quality', what customers receive from services or from service providers. Third, positive consumption emotions have positive influence upon customer satisfaction, negative consumption emotions have negative influence upon customer satisfaction and repurchase intentions. Fourth, switching cost, even though small in its influence, has been proved to be antecedent in repurchase intentions along with customer satisfaction and negative consumption emotions. As precedents in customers' repurchase intentions, customer satisfaction and process service quality are revealed to exercise the biggest influences. Also, positive consumption emotions, negative consumption emotions, outcome service quality and switching cost can be used as determinants in predicting corporate customers' repurchase intentions.

The purpose of this study is to investigate factors that affect corporate CEOs' tax avoidance, ultimately helping find how to fundamentally prevent the avoidance, establish a tax system that ensures tax payers' compliance and revise tax laws and regulations in a positive way. For the purpose, this researcher surveyed corporate CEOs with a questionnaire that contained many questions of various types, which was developed based on previous studies. Findings of the study can be summarized as follows. Main factors affecting tax avoidance were the application of tax provisions, the ability to understand tax laws and the expectation of tax avoidance. The more corporate CEOs' were influenced by the first and the third factors, the higher their propensity for tax avoidance was. On the contrast, corporate CEOs were lower in propensity for tax avoidance when they were more able to understand tax laws. Regarding the three factors' relative influences, tax avoidance was most affected by the expectation of tax avoidance, followed by the ability to understand tax laws and the application of tax provisions in order. Meanwhile, a multi-regression analysis using the sequential deletion technique showed that tax avoidance were affected by the application of tax provisions and the expectation of tax avoidance and that tax avoidance was most influenced by the application of tax provisions, followed by the expectation of tax avoidance. These findings indicate that the degree of corporate CEOs' tax avoidance may vary depending on social and environmental changes that their business face. Meanwhile, positive factors such as tax-bearing capacity and the procedure of tax calculation and negative factors such as management ethics and tax authorities' regulation are all thought to be not helping prevent tax avoidance.

The current study aims to examine differences of mother's child-rearing attitude by background variables of infant's and mothers, the influence of mother's child-rearing attitude, temperament and goodness of fit of infant's on adjustment to childcare center, and relative influence among elements. Subjects for the study were 165 infant's of two year old attending 8 childcare centers in Seoul, Gyeonggi-do and Jeju-do, and their mothers and homeroom teachers at childcare centers. As a result of the study, it was found that there was no difference in background variables such as sex and order among siblings of infant's, childcare experience and average hours at childcare centers a day, and mother's age and job, while there were differences in mother's child-rearing attitude by mother's education, household's monthly income and mother's working hours per week. Also it was observed that mother's restrictive attitude, positive attitude and infant's regular temperament influenced their adjustment to childcare centers, and relatively influential elements on general adjustment to childcare centers were mother's restrictive attitude and positive attitude. That IS, it was found that as mother's restrictive attitude and positive attitude were high, infant's general adjustment to childcare centers became high. These study results show that if infant's learn basic rules and habits from parents at home by having positive relationship with mothers, getting appropriate educative instruction, having proper autonomy and obtaining positive assessment from their mothers, rather than strict restriction or bluff, can adapt themselves to childcare centers with no difficulty.

지금까지 국내 연구자들이 SCI 학술지에 발표한 의학논문의 수가 아주 미미하기 때문에 전 세계 학자들이 발표한 SCI 전체논문 중 한국논문이 차지하는 비중은 지극히 낮은 것으로 보인다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 1980년부터 1990년 사이에 국내에 있는 의학 관련기관의 연구자들이 SCI 학술지에 발표한 논문이 SCI 전체 논문 중 차지하는 비중(Percentage Contribution from Korea to SCI Database)을 47개 의학분야별로 조사하였다. 또한. 본 연구에서는 "국제적으로 영향력 있는 학술연구 활동실적(i.e., Mainstream Productivity)"이 타 분야보다 뛰어난 한국의 의학분야를 밝히기 위하여. SCI 학술지에 발표된 모든 한국 의학논문 중 한 분야의 논문이 자치하는 몫(Percentage Share)을 SCI 전체 논문 중 그 분야의 논문이 차지하는 몫으로 나누어 그 상대적 크기를 분석함으로써, 우리나라 학자들의 Mainstream Productivity Ratio(R)를 각 분야별로 측정하였다. (R=1은 SCI 의학 학술지에 발표된 모든 논문 중에서 어떤한 분야의 논문이 차지하는 비율만큼 한국에서도 그 분야의 논문이 SCI 학술지에 투고되었다는 의미이다.) 1980년에서 1990년 사이에 한국 학자들에 의하여 SCI에 발표된 의학논문이 SCI 전체 의학논문 중에서 차지하는 비율은 $0.051\%$였다. 각 의학 분야별로는, Biotechnology & applied microbiology의 기여도가 $0.8\%$를 차지하여 한국 최고를 기록하였다. 전 세계 문헌의 $1\%$ 이상을 생산한 의학 분야는 없었다. 전 세계 문헌의 $0.1\%$ 이상을 SCI 학술지에 게재한 의학분야는 47개 중 6개인데, 위에 언급한 Biotechnology & applied microbiology를 제외하면 $0.1\%$에서 $0.2\%$ 사이의 기여도를 보였다. 최다 편수의 논문을 낸 Pharmacology 8l Pharmacy$(0.075\%)$나 두 번째로 논문수가 많았던 Biochemisty & molecular biology$(0.054\%)$의 기여도는 $0.1\%$에 미치지 못하였다. 조사대상이 된 47개 의학분야 중 27개 분야에서 예상된 것보다 상대적으로 적은수(R<1)의 한국 논문이 SCI 학술지에 게재되었다. Mainstream Productivity Ratio가 3보다 큰 분야는 4개인데, 그 중 Biotechnology & applied microbiology는 R=15.63으로 아주 월등한 논문 발표실적을 올렸다. Dermatology & venereal diseases(3.02)와 Engineering, biomedical(3.75)도 국제적으로 영향력 있는 학술지에 논문 발표실적이 뛰어난 의학분야이다.

This study investigates empirical issues that have received little attention in the previous research in the Korean capital market. It is to find any financial determinants on the capital structure for the firms listed in the KOSDAQ(Korea Securities Dealers Automated Quotation). Another test is performed to find any possible discriminating factors by utilizing a robust methodology, which may distinguish between the firms belonging the 'prime section' and the 'venture section' in terms of their financial aspects. Moreover, the null hypothesis that the changing trend or movement of a firm's capital structure with respect to its industry mean (or median) may be random, is also tested. For the book-value based debt ratios, size(INSIZE), growth(GROWTH), Market to book value of equity(MVBV), volatility(VOLATILITY), market value of equity (MVE) and section dummy (SECTION) showed their statistically significant effects on the book-value based leverage ratios, respectively, while size(INSIZE), growth(GROWTH), market value of equity(MVE), beta(BETA) and section dummy (SECTION) showed their statistically significant effects on the market-value based leverage ratios. This study also found an interesting result that a firm belonging to each corresponding industry has a tendency for reversion toward its mean and median leverage ratios over the five-year tested period.

This paper tested the lead-lag relationship as well as the symmetric and asymmetric volatility spillover effects between international currency futures markets and cash markets. We use five kinds of currency spot and futures markets such as British pound, Australian and Canadian dollar, Brasilian Real and won/dollar spot and futures markets. daily closing prices covering from September 15, 2003 to July 30, 2009. For this purpose we employed dynamic time series models such as the Granger causality based on VAR and time-varying MA(1)-GJR-GARCH(1, 1)-M. The main empirical results are as follows; First, according to Granger causality test, we find that the bilateral lead-lag relationship between the five countries' currency spot and futures market. The price discover effect from currency futures markets to spot market is relatively stronger than that from currency spot to futures markets. Second, based on the time varying GARCH model, we find that there is a bilateral conditional mean spillover effects between the five currency spot and futures markets. Third, we also find that there is a bilateral asymmetric volatility spillover effects between British pound, Canadian dollar, Brasilian Real and won/dollar spot and futures market. However there is a unilateral asymmetric volatility spillover effect from Australian dollar futures to cash market, not vice versa. From these empirical results we infer that most of currency futures markets have a much better price discovery function than currency cash market and are inefficient to the information.

Along with the well-established evidence on the negative effect of social isolation on physical mental health and mortality, increasing attention has been paid to multi-dimensional nature of social isolation. In this study, the main effect and interaction effect of objective and subjective social isolation on heterogeneous age cohort related to the onset of dementia, which is becoming a social problem due to rapid aging of health issues, was examined through binary logistic regression analysis. Data came from the first wave of Korean Social Life, Health and Aging Project (KSHAP) (N= 814). Findings showed 1) in the young-old, objective isolation was a significant on the incidence of dementia, 2) in the old-old, subjective isolation increased the risk of dementia. In summary, the relative influence of objective and subjective social isolation related to the incidence of dementia varies depending on the young-old and old-old. On the other hand, the interaction effect of objective and subjective social isolation on dementia was not significant in both the young-old and old-old. Based on the findings, we discussed implications and suggestions for future research and relevant policy and program development(dementia-friendly communities) for ameliorating objective and subjective social isolation.
