The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of computer based cognitive rehabilitation program on the generative naming. Twenty - one patients were assigned to the CoTras program and eight were treated with traditional face - to - face language rehabilitation such as paper and table activities. The experimental group and the control group performed sequential language recall memory training, association memory recall training, language categorization memory training, and language integrated memory training for 12 weeks. The Welch's robust ANCOVA showed significant differences in mean fluency and MMSE-K changes (p<0.05). On the other hand, phonemic fluency increased significantly after 12 weeks of treatment compared to baseline in both experimental and control groups, but there was no statistically significant difference between treatment groups. The results of this study suggest that the computer based cognitive rehabilitation program may be more effective in improving the semantic fluency than the conventional cognitive-linguistic rehabilitation.

In building information model (BIM), it is difficult to train an artificial intelligence (AI) model due to the lack of sufficient data about individual projects in an architecture firm. In this paper, we present a methodology to correctly train an AI neural network model based on a large language model (LLM) to predict the steel structure product weight ratios in BIM. The proposed method, with the aid of the LLM, can overcome the inherent problem of limited data availability in BIM and handle a combination of natural language and numerical data. The experimental results showed that the proposed method demonstrated significantly higher accuracy than methods based on a smaller language model. The potential for effectively applying large language models in BIM is confirmed, leading to expectations of preventing building accidents and efficiently managing construction costs.

정서 전달에는 언어적 의사소통뿐만 아니라 비언어적 의사소통이 거론되곤 한다. 하지만 지금까지의 비언어적 의사소통 연구는 대부분 언어의 음향학적 연구나 얼굴표정 연구에 국한되었다. 또한 음악의 정서에 대한 연구는 음악적 구조 혹은 스타일과 여러 성격적 특질 및 행동 간의 관계, 혹은 생리적 효과 등 어떤 음악(what music)이 특정한 효과를 일으키느냐에 중점을 두고 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Gabrielsson & Juslin(1996)의 연구에 의거, 음악을 통하여 작곡가가 아닌 연주자의 의도된 정서가 청자에게 얼마나 잘 지각될 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 봉 녕구의 가설은 다음과 같다; 첫째, 연주자의 정서적 의도는 음악의 모든 물리적 변인에 영향을 준다; 둘째, 청자는 의도된 정서를 지각하는 데 일반적으로 성공적이다; 셋째, 특정 정서는 다른 정서보다 더 잘 구분된다. 본 연구에 사용된 곡은 학습 효과를 배제하기 위하여 새롭게 전문 작곡가에 의해 작곡되었으며, 전문 연주자는 동일한 곡을 7종류의 정서(행복한, 슬픈, 화난, 두려운, 다정한, 엄숙한, 정서 표현 없음)를 표현하도록 연주하였다. 하나의 완전한 음악을 표현하기 위하여 각 곡은 멜로디(악기구성: 일렉트릭 기타, 베이스, 그랜드 피아노)와 리듬(드럼)을 포함하였다. 실험참가자는 각 곡을 듣고 7개의 정서 종류 각각에 점수를 평정하였다. 그 결과 이전 연구와 마찬가지로 청자는 연주자의 의도된 정서를 일반적으로 지각하는 데 성공하였으며 7개의 정서 중 특징적인 정서("행복한", "슬픈", "화난", "다정한") 는 다른 정서 보다 더 잘 구별되었다. 본 연구에 사용된 "두려운" 정서 곡의 음향분석 결과 소리 강도의 큰 변산이 특징이었다. 이는 이전 연구에서 "두려운" 정서의 특징인 타이밍의 큰 변산과 함께, "두려운" 정서가 '불규칙적이거나 변화가 커서 예측하기 어려운' 속성을 지니고 있음을 시사한다. 또한 "다정한" 정서에 대해서 본 연구에서는 다른 모든 정서와 유의미한 차이를 보인 반면, 이전 연구에서는 "슬픈"과 유의미한 차이가 없었다. 이는 본 연구에 쓰인 "다정한" 정서의 곡은 리듬 패턴을 다른 정서 버전과는 다르게 보사노바 리듬을 사용하였다. 이전 연구와는 다르게 빠른 템포였음에도 불구하고 구별이 잘 된 이유는 이와 같이 장르 특징적인 영향이 컸기 때문이라고 할 수 있다. 이는 연주자나 음악 스타일 자체의 성격이 정서 판단에 있어 큰 영향을 준다는 사실을 시사한다. 종합적으로 음악을 통한 정서 전달에 있어 연주자, 청자, 악기, 음악 스타일의 차이가 영향을 줄 수 있다는 사실을 확인하였으며 이러한 결과는 Scherer & Oshinsky(1977)가 언급하였듯 음악 연주가 다른 비언어적 의사소통 방법과 공유하는 특징이 있음을 시사한다.

In this study, using data completed in the 11th year of the Panel Study on Korean Children, discourse management, situational adjustment and application ability, communication intention, and non-verbal communication were investigated by the child pragmatic language checklist tool in the field of cognitive and language development. It is to find a significant influence by analyzing the relationship between the factors of the observed variables on the latent variables of communication. The subject of this study is 4th grade elementary school students in 1,392 households, excluding 36 non-respondents to the language development question, out of 2150 households in the 11th year of the Panel Study on Korean Children(2018) data, 1428 households excluding 722 households who did not participate in the survey. As a result of the study, it was found that the total effect, direct effect, and indirect effect among the three latent variables except for communication intention were all significant in the effect analysis of the research model. Specifically, not only did nonverbal communication have a direct effect on discourse management ability, but also the indirect influence mediated by situational control and application ability was significant in the relationship between nonverbal communication and discourse management ability. As a result, it was found that the higher the non-verbal communication and situational adjustment and adaptation ability, the higher the discourse management ability.

The air travel industry, which had shrunk with COVID-19, is gaining wings again. Accordingly, this study investigated whether non-verbal communication factors experienced through interaction with airline flight attendants for passengers who have traveled abroad within the past year through domestic airlines affect customer engagement and brand intimacy. A total of 285 samples were collected, and SPSS 28 and AMOS 26 programs were used to verify the reliability and validity of the research tool, the suitability of the model, and hypotheses. As a result of the empirical study analysis, it was confirmed that Paralanguage and Proxemics in non-verbal communication of flight attendants had a significant effect on customer engagement. Although it is different from the results of previous studies following changes in perspective after COVID-19, it once again confirmed the importance of airline crew communication in providing face-to-face services at the interface with passengers. In order to induce customer engagement, which is a new customer satisfaction management index. In addition, it was confirmed that customer engagement has a significant effect on brand intimacy. These results support the view that it is necessary to establish new customer management indicators of emotion and relationship marketing in the existing marketing centered on price reduction or securing loyalty. It was confirmed that interactions with flight attendants can contribute to customer engagement, and these results have important implications for those working in the air transportation industry.

This study was performed in order to examine the effects of one to one interactive picture book reading on infants' reading response and teachers' language teaching efficacy. A total of 50 2-year-olds from 8 child care centers in Incheon were divided into an experimental group and a control group. The interactive picture book reading activities were carried out once a week during 12 weeks. The infants in the experimental group read one-to-one with teachers, and their counterparts read the same book in a group. The change in teachers' language teaching efficacy was examined, and their subjective perception was evaluated through in-depth interview. As a result of this research, the infants in the experimental group showed significantly increased verbal response, compared to the control group, both in the total score and most sub-factors such as naming, responding, asking, demanding, spontaneous utterance, and decontextualized utterance. They also represented a significant rise, compared to the control group, in the total score of non-verbal response and factors like finger indicating, imitating, and accepting. Finally, the teachers who led the experimental group showed increased language teaching efficacy, and evaluated the effects of interactive picture book reading with infants very positively.

At old age, as people depend on superficial clues when they interpret the overall context of communication, their ability to understand connotative and figurative words and articles could deteriorate. In this study, 50 normal young(junior) people and normal old(senior) people were made to perform a task to understand similes, metaphors, idioms, and proverbs, the sub-areas of figurative language. For the task, participants were made to understand a paragraph consisting of several sentences and select a correct answer representing appropriate figurative language. As a result of the analysis, first, old people showed a lower level of performance than young people in all the sub-areas of figurative language. Second, in understanding idiomatic words and proverbs, old people showed a lower level of performance due to unfamiliarity. Third, for the types of wrong answers, old people mostly understood only the literal meanings in all the sub-areas of figurative language. Due to aging, old people come to have a lowered level of the pragmatic language ability, reasoning ability, and inhibiting ability to efficiently communicate with others considering certain situations and contexts. Thus, old people could have difficulties in understanding inner meanings from others in daily communication.
