This study aims to deduct the extensive improvement types of leisure activities of private security agents using PPA technique and to examine the influence of leisure constraint on the index of participation. Through this process, this study consequently will draw the priority list of investment on the policy for improving the welfare status of private security agents. In this study, judgement sampling was applied to 6 security agencies located in Seoul, 2010, and 267 cases were used in the final analysis. Collected data went through factor analysis, reliability analysis, paired t test, PPA analysis, and regression analysis by using SPSSWIN 17.0. The conclusions were drawn as follows. In regard to the reliability, Cronbach's $\alpha$ was over .768. First, there was a difference between the preference rate and the participation rate which are the participation index of the private security agents' leisure activities. concentrate here in leisure types turned out to be fitness activities, walking/jogging, tourism, a day-long travel, and keep up the cood work in leisure types are movies, domestic tourist attractions, dating, eating out, personal relationship, watching sports, reading, karaoke, TV video watching, drinking etc. low priority in leisure types are water sports, hiking, biking, soccer, photography, ball games, sky sports, playing go/janggi, inline skates, and cooking. Second, the leisure constraint affects the participation index of leisure activities. As the personal constraint, and surrounding conscious constraint which are the subordinate factors of the leisure constraint get bigger, the participation index of favored leisure activities become lower. In contrast, when the difficulties such as structural constraint, time and economical constraint are overcome, participation index of leisure activities go on the rise.

To study reliability and validity of PWI, this newly developed self-administered questionnaire which measures stress, was given to medical students. All respondent(133) were followed 4 weeks later and 92 were retested. Cronbach's $\alpha$ coefficient of data was 0.93. Test-retest reliability measured by Pearson's correlation coefficient was 0.72(P<0.01). Exploratory factor analysis(EFA) performed by principal axis factor method without iteration and by varimax rotation explored 13 principal components(eigenvalues > 1). After exploring 4 factor structure according to previous study results, factor 1 showed good agreement but other factors did not. Confirmatory factor analysis(CFA) showed poor fit of 4 factor model to data. In the further study, it may be considered to model that has unidimensional factor structure.

Recently, geotechnical engineering researches have been conducted on the Limit State Design (LSD) for deep and shallow foundations; however, there are very few studies on the retaining wall. As a basic study for the introduction of the LSD of a railway retaining wall, this study evaluates whether the reliability index satisfies the target reliability index for each failure mode in the standard drawing of the retaining wall. It also analyzes the feasibility of the LSD method by using the Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) for the standard drawing of a retaining wall. In a portion of the standard drawing of the railway retaining wall, the reliability indices of the sliding and bearing capacity failure modes did not satisfy the target reliability index, and could not satisfy the limit state by the LRFD. Hence, the standard drawing of the railway retaining wall will need to be revised if the LSD is to be applied.

Purpose. The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the oral health impact profile (OHIP-EDENT K) for edentulous patients. Materials and methods. The study was conducted on 12 patients who fabricated overdenture in the Department of Prosthodontics, Korea University, Guro Hospital. All subjects completed the Korean version of Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP K) questionnaire. Shorten version of the OHIP called OHIP-14 K and OHIP-EDENT K were derived from the datasets. Cronbach's alpha was used to measure internal consistency of the summary scores for OHIP-EDENT K. The Spearman's correlation coefficient between the summary scores for OHIP-EDENT K and OHIP K was calculated to evaluate concurrent validity. Results. The reliability of the summary scores for OHIP-EDENT K was acceptable (α=.736). The Spearman's correlation coefficient of the summary scores for OHIP-EDENT K and OHIP K was 0.966, which was statistically significant (P<.001). OHIP-EDENT K exhibited less susceptibility to floor effects than OHIP-14 K and appeared to measure change as effectively as OHIP K. In order to prove the reliability, responsiveness and validity of OHIP-EDENT K, further studies with more samples are needed. Conclusion. The OHIP-EDENT K, a questionnaire on oral health-related QOL comprising 19 items, has measurement properties comparable with the full 49-item version. This modified shortened version can be an alternative questionnaire to full version of OHIP K and OHIP-14 K in edentulous patients.

In this study, an laboratory experiment was performed for prediction technology of water content in the ground using hyperspectral information. And the spectral reflectance with a specific wavelength band was obtained according to the fine and water content. Through it, the spectral information was normalized with the spectral index of the existing literature, and the relationship with the fine and water contents and the reliability of the prediction technology were analyzed. As a result of analysis, the spectral reflectance is decreased when the water and fine contents are increased under the high water contents. In addition, the reliability of prediction technology of water content was evaluated by examining 7 different spectral index calculation methods. Among them, DVI showed relatively high prediction reliability and was superior to other calculation methods in terms of sensitivity.

In this paper, the live load model for the design of high-speed railway bridge is analyzed by statistic and probabilistic methods and the safety level that is given by the load factors of the load combination is analyzed. This study is a part of the development of the limit state design method for the railway bridge, and the train data collected from the Gyeongbu high-speed railway for about one month are utilized. The four different statistical methods are applied to estimate the design load to match the bridge design life and the results are compared. In order to examine the safety level that the design load combination of the railway bridge gives, the reliability indexes are determined and the results are analyzed. The load effect from the current design live load for the high-speed rail bridge which is 0.75 times of the standard train load is came out greater than at least 30-22% that from the estimated load from the measured data. If it is judged based on the ultimate limit state, there is a possibility of additional reduction of the safety factors through the reliability analysis.

국내의 미세먼지 문제가 심각해짐에 따라 대기 오염에 관한 분야의 관심이 높아지고 있다. 현재 정부는 최근 IT 융합 기술의 발전에 따라 빅데이터, 클라우드, 등 사물인터넷 기반 장치의 확산 및 고도화를 위한 기술 접목에 많은 지원과 관심을 보이며 기상청을 통해서는 국내 대기 오염으로 인한 사회적 비용을 낮추기 위해 공공 데이터(Application Program Interface, API)를 활용 다양한 정보 서비스를 지원하고 있다. 하지만 기상청에서 제공하는 정보 서비스에는 한계가 있다. 특히 기상청에서 운영되고 있는 장비들은 고가의 장비로써 비용 및 공간적 설치 제약이 따르며, 약 15km 범위를 한 개소로 담당하여 기상 데이터에 대한 신뢰도에 문제가 발생하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 오픈 하드웨어 기반 소형 기상관측 장비를 활용한 기상지수 및 미세먼지 측정 데이터 제공 시스템을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안한 시스템은 기상 계측이 필요한 지역의 작은 공간을 활용, 기상관측 장비를 통해 관측된 데이터와 기상청에서 제공하는 생활 기상지수 알고리즘을 토대로 해당 지역에 맞는 맞춤형 정보를 제공하여 사회적 비용을 낮출 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

지점빈도해석은 수문자료의 관측기간이 짧은 경우 확률수문량 산정의 신뢰도가 낮은 경향이 있으므로, 지점 내 충분한 수의 자료확보가 선행되어야 한다. 지역빈도해석은 지점 자료가 부족한 경우 또는 미계측 지점에서 확률수문량을 결정하기 위하여 제안된 방법으로서, 자료수가 부족한 경우 지역빈도해석을 사용하면 효율적이고 안정적으로 확률수문량을 산정할 수 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그간 국내 수문자료를 적용한 지역빈도해석에 대해 많은 검토가 이루어져 왔으나, 해외 수문자료에 대해서는 구하기 어려운 점 등의 이유로 상대적으로 검토가 부족했던 바, 본 검토에서는 해외 수문자료를 이용하여 지점빈도해석 및 지역빈도해석을 수행하여 결과를 비교하였다. 지역빈도해석의 기법으로는 지수홍수법 및 지역형상추적법을 적용하였으며, 적용한 지점의 L-변동계수, L-왜곡도계수의 차이에 따라 다른 결과가 나타났다. 일반적으로는 지역형상추적법이 지점빈도해석과 지수홍수법의 절충형으로, 확률수문량 산정결과도 지역형상추적법의 결과가 지점빈도해석과 지수홍수법의 사이에 위치할 것으로 예상하였으나, 어떤 경우에서는 그렇지 않은 결과를 도출하기도 하였다. 따라서, 지역빈도해석은 가급적 두 가지 이상의 방법을 적용한 뒤, 설계자가 자료의 특성에 따라 판단하여 적용해야 할 것으로 판단된다. 향후 국내에 비해 자료가 상대적으로 부족한 해외 수자원사업의 경우, 적은 자료수에서도 안정적인 결과를 산출하는 지역빈도해석의 적용이 필수적으로 판단되며, 해외 자료를 이용한 관련 연구가 지속적으로 이루어져야 할 것이다.

The purpose of the study was to develop the home fall prevention checklist for community-dwelling older adults. And the validity and reliability of the checklist were tested. The preliminary questions were developed through content validity by twenty experts using the CVI(Content Validity Index). Following the establishment of content validity, 52 items of the checklist were developed. Responses of 299 community-dwelling older adults were analyzed to further establish both reliability and validity of the checklist. Reliability using cohen's kappa coefficient and test-retest reliability(rate of concordance(%)), and construct validity using known-group comparison technique were tested. 51 items were over 0.80 in the cohen's kappa coefficient of the checklist, 45 items were over 80.0% in test-retest reliability. Construct validity was established by known-group comparison(t=3.50, p=.001). Validity and reliability of the checklist were confirmed. This checklist will help further studies to develop more safe environment to prevent falls.
