This study investigates major contributing factors that determine the marital stability among the disabled women in South Korea. Data collected from 124 women with disabilities were analyzed for this purpose. Multiple regression analysis was used to explore the determinants of the marital instability among the participants. The multiple regression analysis revealed that age, welfare receipt, health condition, depression, marital intimacy, marital satisfaction, marital conflicts and drinking problems were statistically significant predictors to the extent of marital stability among the disabled women in the total model. Based on the study results, several implications such as development of programs to improve marital stability of women with disabilities were discussed.

Stoltz's AQP is a tool to estimate the level of adversity. The purpose of study is to test the reliability and validity of AQP. The participants were 297 nurses of tertiary hospital in Korea. Data were collected from Aug. to Oct. 2013. Resilience Scale was used as criterion of AQP. Cronbach's alpha test, item total correlation, exploratory factor, correlation analysis, and ANOVA test were used. In result, factor analysis was accounted for four factors explaining 56.256% of total variance and corresponding factors were factor 1 (Control, 10.7%), factor 2 (Ownership, 13.7%), factor 3(Reach, 17.4%), factor 4 (Endurance, 14.9%). The internal consistency was acceptable (Cronbach's alpha=.84). Four factors were positively correlated with RS. AQP is a reliable and valid instrument to measure for adversity quotient in Korean nurse.

The aim of the research is to provide thixotropy on cement-based materials. For this purpose, the linkage between polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and borax was used. Namely, adding the suspensions of PVA and borax in cement paste, the thixotropy of cement paste was confirmed. The thixotropy of cement-based materials can have various advantages on construction process, especially, the placing method using pipe can have advantages. As a result of this research, the linkage between PVA and borax is valid inside of cement paste. Therefore, using PVA and borax, it is confirmed that the cement-based materials can have thixotropy with this method, and it can be expected to contribute on developing new method of placing cement-based materials with thixotropy.

This study explored the determinant variables of physical health of the high school students in Korea. Specifically, it explored how the sociodemographic characteristics factor, school factor, delinquent behaviors factor of the students affect their physical health using the 2012 Korean Youth Health Risk Behavior On-line Survey. Using the case of 36,889, this study conducted frequency analysis, t-test, F-test, and multiple regression analysis. As the result of total multiple regression analysis, gender, father's educational level, sibling(s), economic status, grade, academic record, problem drinking, drug use were statistically significant determinant variables of physical health of the high school students in Korea. Also, it delivered some implications for enhancing their physical health.

Most of previous studies on civil servants' stress factors and job satisfaction have been focused on low job satisfaction caused by stress from role relations and human relations. In case of fire officers, however, their stress is expected to be influenced by their unique job characteristics such as risk, urgency, stand-by, and shift. Thus, this study divided fire officers'stress factors into job-related factors (risk, urgency, stand-by, alternation) and role-related factors (role conflict, role ambiguity, role overload), and empirically analyzed how these factors affect their job satisfaction. According to the results of this study, fire officers' job characteristics and their roles in the organization had a significant effect on their job satisfaction. Particularly, among the job-related factors, urgency and stand-by had a positive effect on job satisfaction, and among role-related factors, role conflict and role overload had a negative effect on job satisfaction. In addition, fire officers' stress and job satisfaction were significantly different according to their job (fire fighting, rescue and first aid, fire administration, others), and according to their workplace (fire fighting headquarters, fire station, 119 safety center).

This paper is to analyze the relative weight and the priority order of the selection factors for IPTV. To obtain the goal this paper, firstly, the selecting factors for IPTV were identified and conceptualized on reviewing previous literatures. And this paper proposed the hierarchy model using the factor analysis on IPTV users. and utilized AHP in analysis method. Secondly, AHP model constructed 4 higher factors, and 15 lower factors. The higher factors were 'Quality Acceptance', 'Social Effect', 'Using Motive' and 'Individual Psychology'. Results of this study show that relative weights among factors IPTV selection were founded as 'Quality Acceptance(33.0%)', 'Utilization Motive(31.8%)', 'Individual Psychology(21.3%)' and 'Social Influence(13.9%)'. Economic efficiency takes the top rank in sub-criteria included 15 factors and than convenience, amount of information, discrimination, self-efficacy, innovation, relative advantage in order listed. For the generalization of the research results, further researchs are needed to investigate intended use of IPTV on other method of analysis.

Imperforate hymen is, with an incidence of 0.1%, a rare female anomaly, which can appear with symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, primary amenorrhea, dysuria, anuria, caused by retention of menstrual blood after the onset of menstruation. Generally urinary retention is caused by psychological conditions, drug effect, infection or congenital anomaly causing acute urinary obstruction. We experienced a patient with symptoms of acute urinary retention, suggesting acute urinary obstruction. The cause for the retention turned out to be an imperforated hymen, which should therefore be mentioned in the literature as a possible cause in cases suspected of urinary retention.

This study was a quasi-experimental design with a non-equivalent control group to investigate the effects of yoga nidra on self-esteem in nursing students. Thirty-nine undergraduate nursing students were selected by convenience sampling, with 19 assigned to an yoga nidra group and 20 assigned to a control group. The data were collected from May 1 to June 24, 2016. The yoga nidra intervention was performed for 60 minutes per session, two sessions per a week for 8 weeks. The control group did not participate in the yoga nidra and had no designated intervention. Self-esteem were measured with Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale. The yoga nidra group scores were significantly increased in self-esteem levels compared with the control group. In conclusion, these findings indicate that yoga nidra intervention would elevate self-esteem levels in nursing students and it can be used as a tool to improve the self - esteem of university students as well as nursing college students.

In the past few years, data leakage of information assets has become prominent issue. According to the NIS in South Korea, they found 375 cases of data leakage from 2003 to 2013, especially 49 of cases have been uncovered in 2013 alone. These criminals are increasing as time passes. Thus, it constitutes a reason for establishment, operation and certification of ISMS, even for private enterprises. The purpose of this study is to examine the factors influencing the certification intention of ISMS using EFA (Exploratory Factor Analysis) and regression analysis. We identified expectation factors for certification of ISMS from 13 elements using EFA (Strengthening practical ability & economic effect factor and Improvement of security level & handling incident factor). Next, we examined that the certification intention of ISMS using regression analysis. As a result of regression analysis, Strengthening practical ability & economic effect factor is not significant for the certification intention of ISMS (p<.05). Also, Improvement of security level & handling incident factor have a significant and positive effect on the certification intention of ISMS (p<.05).
