This paper quantitatively calculated the speech frequency of the discourse markers 'a', 'eo', and 'eum' and the speech duration of these discourse markers using the Seoul Corpus, a spontaneous speech corpus. The sound durations were confirmed with Praat, the Seoul Corpus was analyzed with Emeditor, and the results were presented by statistical analysis with R. Based on the corpus analysis, the study investigated whether a particular factor is preferred by speakers of particular categories. The most prominent feature of the corpus is that the sound durations of female speakers were longer than those of men when using the 'eum' discourse marker in a final position. In age-related variables, teenagers uttered 'a' more than 'eo' in an initial position when compared to people in their 40s. This study is significant because it has quantitatively analyzed the discourse markers 'a', 'eo', and 'eum' by gender and age. In order to continue the discussion, more precise research should be conducted considering the context. In addition, similarities can be found in "e" and "ma" in Japanese(Watanabe & Ishi, 2000) and 'uh', 'um' in English(Gries, 2013). afterwards, a study to identify commonalities and differences can be predicted by using the cross-linguistic analysis of the discourse.

The purpose of this study is to examine the variables related to the students' e-learning participation that have an effect on learning achievement in e-learning environment of cyber universities. Based on the related research, the followings are derive. First, students' attendance and participation in discussion showed higher correlation with the learning achievement than other participation variables. However, the total studying time in online classes showed lower correlation with the learning achievement. Second, the variables that have an effect on the learning achievement were in the order of students' attendance, participation in discussion, access frequency to online classes, learning progress and number of data uploads. Third, by the learners' background, the difference among the variables that have an effect on learning achievement were found. Based on the results above, this study suggests considerations about participation variables to enhance the learning achievement in cyber universities.

Recently, owing to the technology advances in computer science and image processing, age of face classification have become prevalent topics. It is difficult to estimate age of facial shape with statistical figures because facial shape of the person should change due to not only biological gene but also personal habits. In this paper, we proposed a robust age of face classification method by using Gabor feature and fuzzy support vector machine(SVM). Gabor wavelet function is used for extracting facial feature vector and in order to solve the intrinsic age ambiguity problem, a fuzzy support vector machine(FSVM) is introduced. By utilizing the FSVM age membership functions is defined. Some experiments have conducted to testify the proposed approach and experimental results showed that the proposed method can achieve better age of face classification precision.

This paper was attempting to identify determinants of media repertoires based on new services and technologies. Using the regression and discriminant models, this study examined determinants that included five independent factors such as the degree of innovation, social networks, social influences, demographic variables and media uses. The analyses revealed that all of independent variables except the degree of innovation were significant determinants of media repertoires. Secondly, the results of discriminant analyses showed that terrestrial television use, age, disposable income were significant factors discriminating new media service adopters from the sample. For new media related technologies adopters, family income, and media uses such as newspaper, Internet and radio were significant discriminant variables.

It has been reported that more than 10 percent of Korean elementary students are classified into ADHD (Attention Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder). Major treatment of ADHD is medication. However, medication brings various kinds of side effects. Therefore, we need a way to improve attention leve, and lead children to voluntarily participate in it. With this purpose, we tried to develop a 3D tangible game to improve the children's attention level. To measure the level of attention enhancement, firstly we measured both the group average and the standard deviation of the measurement variables from the raw data gathered during the game play time. The measured value can be effectively used to measure the level of attention improvement of the children who might need treatment.

This study investigates SNS usage behaviors of SNS users with a change of SNS use environment and an increase of users. This study compares the difference of use motivation, preferred type, and main use SNS according to socio-demographic variable of SNS users using cross tabulation analysis and also conducts a comparative analysis of main use SNS of each SNS user using correspondence analysis. The results show main use motivation of SNS is relationship seek, most preferred type is closed type, and main use SNS is Kakaostory. Next, we find that there are differences on use motivation, preferred type, and main use SNS, depending on the socio-demographic characteristics of SNS users. The result of correspondence analysis shows how users are using SNS services and what structure their competitive relations of SNS services are made. In the conclusion, the study presents summary of the findings, implications, and tasks for further studies.

공공기관에서 발간하는 통계자료들을 살펴보면 대부분 관찰값으로 빈도수나 또는 전체를 기준으로 하여 그 빈도수가 차지하는 퍼센트정도로 나타나 있다. 그러나 우리는 꾸준히 변하는 사회에 살고 있는데 객관적인 자료는 쉽게 설명되지 않으며 이해하기 어렵다. 예를 들어 모든 자동차 사고 가운데 승용차의 사고는 다른 종류보다 제일 많은 60%이상을 차지한다. 그러나 승용차는 등록된 모든 차량종류에서 70% 이상을 점유하고 있으므로 다른 차종보다 사고율은 제일 낮다. 따라서 교통사고 건수가 제일 많은 승용차가 다른 차종에 비하여 제일 사고율이 낮고 가장 안전한 차종이라는 것을 경험할 수 있다. 이 논문에서는 1991년부터 발표된 교통사고에 대한 일반적인 통계자료를 우리들의 생활 속에서 느낄 수 있는 위험 인지도로 바꾸어 계산하여 분석하였다. 차종별, 지역별, 연령별, 도로종류별, 사고 유형별, 교통수단별, 시간별, 법규위반별로 구분된 교통사고의 위험에 대한 인지도를 총 인구수(시도별)와 등록된 여러 종류의 자동차의 대수 또는 여러 종류의 도로 길이 등과 같은 요인들을 고려하여 비교 분석하였다.

The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze differences of perceived career barriers based on demographic characteristics of cyber university students. The results of this study will provide a valuable basis for guiding adult learners in their career development. Subjects included 937 adult learners at cyber universities in Seoul, Korea, aged 20 and above. Results were as follows: The level of career barriers perceived by females aged 20-29 who were unemployed and single were higher than that of males aged 30 to 59 who were employed and married. Female students were higher in 'anxiety of future', 'lack of interest', 'lack of job information', 'interpersonal difficulty'. The only component in which subjects aged 50-59 perceived higher than other age groups was 'conflict with important people'. There was no significant differences by grade. These results imply that the perception of the career barriers of adult learners should be considered in customizing career development programs and career counselling.
