Internet only Banks in Korea have acquired more than seven million customer base, but most of the accounts are not active. As financial products tend to be similar, customer affect plays more crucial role than service features in continuance intention. The purpose of this research is to study about the impact of positive and negative affect on the continuance intention. The result indicated that positive affect is positively related to continuance intention, and negative affect is negatively related to continuance intention. Also expectation confirmation is positively related to positive affect. The results imply Internet only Banks need to focus on customer's positive affect and expectation confirmation to improve continuance intention.

The study on correlation between the parents' character of orthodontic patients and patients cooperation. Although dentists have excellent skill and technique, patients' cooperation is always demanded. Patients' poor cooperation results in poor treatment result. Cooperation between psycho-social state of parents and patient's cooperation was studied. The parent's psychosocial state is evaluated with scl-90-r. The cooperation is measured by appointment time compliance, appliance taking rate, breakage of appliance, and fee paying. Parents' psychosocial contents are somatization, obsessive-compulsive, interpersonal sensitivity, depression, anxiety, hostility, phobic-anxiety, paranoid ideation, psychoticism, and additional item. Statistics was done by SPSS WINDOW version 12.0 program. The result showed no correlation between patients' cooperation and their parents' psychosocial state. There is no correlation between father's psychosocial state and patients' cooperation except psychoticism. There is no correlation between mother's psychosocial state and patients' cooperation. However, there was correlation among cooperation variables: appointment time compliance, appliance taking rate, breakage of appliance, cost paying. Appliance taking rate and cost paying showed positive correlation. Our findings suggest that patients' cooperation does not followed their parents' pychosocial state. Other combined factors should be considered like pychosocial state of patient and doctor-patient relationship.

The purpose of the current study was to examine the validity of the Leisure Satisfaction Scale(LSS) and confirm the relations between the LSS and subjective well-being. The LSS developed by Beard and Ragheb[9] has been used for about 20 years without the examination of the validity since it was utilized in Lee[2]'s study in Korea. First, all items of the original LSS and the operational definition of factors were translated and then inversely translated, and reviewed by experts in leisure studies. A total of 515 respondents participated in the study. To achieve the goals of this study, item-total correlation, correlation analysis, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, multiple regression and confirmatory factor analysis were conducted by SPSS 14.0 and AMOS 5.0 programs. Main findings are as follows: First, the factor names(psychological, educational, social, physical, esthetic, and relaxation) and items were modified. Second, modified operational definition of factors were presented. The reliability and validity of the LSS consisted of 24 items and five factors were very high. Psychological and relaxation factors of LSS affected subjective well-being positively. The new LSS would be useful for the future studies associated with leisure satisfaction.

Objectives: Symptoms of sleep apnea consisted of insomnia, excessive sleepiness during daytime, impaired cognitive functions and emotional disturbances. It was not so well known how these symptoms are correlated with various parameters of sleep and respiration, and what kind of psychophysiological processes are involved in development of these symptoms. Methods: In sixty patients with sleep apnea, sleep and respiration were studied by polysomnography of one night, also symptoms of sleep apnea were evaluated with the scales of insomnia, daytime sleepiness, emotional disturbance and cognitive impairment We studied correlations between apnea symptoms, and various parameters of sleep and respiration such as sleep efficiency, number severity of apnea, $O_2$ desaturation and number of snoring. Results: The result showing significant correlations are as follows. The patients with better sleep in insomnia scale showed more number of apnea, particularly more central type, and much more snoring in stage 3 sleep and mild desaturation of $O_2$. Excessive sleepiness during daytime correlated significantly with stage 1 sleep and its snoring, but correlated negatively with stage 2 sleep. However, no significant correlation was found with degree of $O_2$ desaturation. Emotional disturbance was more apparent in the patients with severe $O_2$ desaturation and smaller amounts of stage 4 sleep. Cognitive function was more impaired in cases of more REM sleep and less apnea. Conclusions: Symptoms of sleep apnea may occur through different causes and processes. The evaluation of apnea symptoms may be helpful to understand in some degree the condition of sleep and respiration during sleep in clinical setting.

The purpose of this study is to identify factors of 25~36 months old infant's happiness and to develop a scale to measure infant happiness. The subjects were 250 infants aged 25~36 months. The results of this study are as follows: First, the components and items of infant's happiness scale selected through the literature, the previous measurement tool, and the focus group interview were 8 components and 29 items. The items were composed of 4 items of problem behavior, 4 items of achievement through immersion, 4 items of relationship with friends, 4 items of relationship with teacher, 3 items of physical environment, 4 items of positive emotion, 3 items of negative emotion, and 3 items of health. Second, as a result of validation of validity for infant's happiness scale, the item fit was confirmed with CFI=0.89, TLI=0.88, and RMR=0.05. Also, the construct validity was confirmed with convergent validity and discriminant validity. The concurrent validity was significantly correlated with the components of the previously developed measurement tools, and the reliability was appeared with 0.71-0.89. The infant's happiness scale developed in this study ensured reliability and validity as a measurement to measure infant happiness. Therefore, this scale is expected to be used as a major test tool to develope and verify a program for promoting infant happiness.

The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of yoga and meditation-focused forest healing programs on profiles of mood states and stress reactions of adults. We tested 17 adults who agreed to participate in the experiments that were conducted for 2 nights and 3 days between September 8 to 10, 2017 in the healing forest located at Hongcheon-gun, Gangwon-do. The test used the simplified version of the inventory for the profile of mood states (K-POMS-B: Korean version of Profile of Mood States-Brief) and the stress response inventory as the measuring tools. For data analysis, we examined the differences in the profile of mood states and stress response of subjects before and after participation in the program through the paired T-tests with the SPSS 24.0 program. The analysis of the impact of the yoga and meditation-focused forest healing program on the profile of mood states of the test subjects showed the statistically significant reduction of the total score of the profile of mood states. Although the vigor among sub-level inventories increased, it was not statistically significant. But the tension, depression, anger, fatigue, and confusion showed a statistically significant reduction. The analysis of the impact of the yoga and meditation-focused forest healing program on the stress response of the test subjects showed a statistically significant reduction. Among sub-level inventories, the tension, somatization, anger, depression, fatigue, and frustration showed a statistically significant reduction, but the aggressiveness did not. It is expected that the results of this study can be utilized in the future as reference data for clarifying the effects of yoga and meditation-focused forest healing programs.

We have investigated relationship between particle characteristics of oyster shell powder pigments and their performance such as workability and durability. Three types of the powder which have different particle size and shape(spherical, elliptical, columnar and irregular) distributions were made for this study and we evaluated spreadability and uniformity for workability, and adhesion and surface hardness for durability of painted films by each powder paints. As a result, we found out that the workability and durability of the paints were influenced by the particle shape distribution more than the particle size distribution. The durability, especially, was enhanced as the ratio of columnar particles in the powders was increased. This result verifying the important factor affecting the durability can be base data for selecting oyster shell white paint and assessing its quality for conservation and restoration of Dancheong, as well as to produce high quality traditional paints.

The previous research suggested a self-report questionnaire-type scale to measure a user's emotions naturally expressed while using a product. Using the scale, this research measured their emotions expressed while users use cellular phones naturally for a certain time without setting tasks. The results suggest that the cellular phone of high usability lead to higher 'Satisfaction in Usability' and lower 'Uncomfortableness' than the cellular phone with usability flaws. On the other hand the cellular phone with usability flaws lead to higher 'Uncomfortableness' and lower 'Satisfaction in Usability' but higher in other representative emotions such as 'Aesthetics', 'Novelty', 'Pleasure', and 'Excellence' than the other cellular phone. It can be insufficient to define the correlation between the product usability and the user's emotions based on the results of this research: however, the correlation between these two factors will be discovered in more detail by analyzing the changes of the user's emotions according to the length of time of using cellular phone.

This study examined the research trends of "Microplastic in food" with a scholar databaseusing the centrality analysis method. The data was based on research papers published from 2011 to 2020, sorted by "microplastic" and "food". The centrality analysis methodology(Degree centrality, Closeness centrality, Betweenness centrality) was applied, followed by a keyword-based frequency occurrence analysis. The results suggested that more than 30% of the total keywords were related to "marine" and "pollution". Therefore, research on the effects of microplastic pollution on the ecosystem had mainly been conducted. On the other hand, only 6% of the keywords were related to "toxicity" and "ingestion". Hence,the number of studies on microplastic exposure caused by bioaccumulation or food are still insufficient. These results can be used to provide directions for future research, as well as provide basic data for political decision-making on the environmental hazards of microplastic.

뉴스기사를 구성하는 NOD데이터는 VOD(Video on Demand) 데이터와는 달리 미디어의 종류 및 크기, 시간적인 접근 지역성, 사용자와 상호 작용성 등의 차이점을 가질 뿐만 아니라 새로운 뉴스기사가 수시로 생성되고 사용자가 인기도가 높은 기사와 최신의 뉴스기사에 더 많이 접근하는 특성을 가진다. 본 논문에서는 현재 서비스중인 전자신문의 로그파일을 분석하여 NOD 뉴스기사의 인기도가 Zipf분포와 다름을 보이고, 뉴스기사의 생명주기Lifr Cycle)에 따른 접근 확률분포 제시한다. NOD 데이터의 접근 편기성으로 인하여 데이터 캐싱을 통한 NOD 서버의 성능 향상을 기대할 수 있으나 뉴스기사의 생명주기가 짧고 접근시간대별로 사용자 접근형태가 변하는 등의 이유로 단순히 인기도만 고려한 캐싱은 빈번한 데이터 재배치 문제로 인해 높은 캐시 관리비용을 야기한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 뉴스 기사의 접근 편기성에 나타나는 인기도(popularity)와 생명주기를 조합한 척도를 제안하고 이를 이용한 재배치를 제안한다.
