The main aim of this study is to find out whether an elementary school's science-invention program for gifted pupils has an effect on their attitude towards science-engineering sector or related careers for their future. For hypothesis testing, a class for gifted pupils of 6th grade in D elementary school, J elementary school is chosen. The experiment was implemented 12 times during the period. Major findings were as follows. In career maturity, there weren't statistically meaningful differences found between experimental and controlled group as a result of invention program. This result showed that the invention program is not appropriate to promote the career maturity. However, there were still some evidence of change in their attitudes to science-engineering. Based on the result, an invention program which fails to improve career maturity should be amended.

Hand-washing is one of the most important factors in infection control and in preventing cross-contamination. The objective of this study was to investigate female university students' awareness of hand-washing, their hand washing practices, and the difference between their awareness and practices. A self-administered questionnaire survey and direct observation in restrooms were separately carried out in a university campus and over four weeks' period. A total of 97.4% of the survey respondents claimed to wash their hands after using toilet, and 98.2% of the observed students actually did so according to the unnoticed observational study. However, only 6.3% of the students who washed their hands in the direct observation washed for more than 10 seconds, although 46.4% of respondents in the survey reported that they usually wash their hands for more than 10 seconds. Among the observed students who washed their hands, only 0.9% used soap, and 0.9% washed four parts of their hands. Paper towel was the most common hand-drying method in the direct observation and also in the survey. Significant differences were found in duration, use of soap, part of washing, and hand-drying method between the questionnaire survey and the direct observation (p<0.05). This study indicates that there is a noticeable difference between the awareness of hand-washing and hand-washing practices among female university students. Further research should examine hand-washing practices of female university students in restrooms outside the university campus.

The results of the study show that the safety consciousness of subjects was as high as 4.29 points. On the other hand, practice of safety behavior was moderate at 48.71 points. Fire safety consciousness was found to be different according to age and education level, and environmental safety action was significantly different according to gender and residence. Safety consciousness showed a significant correlation with practice of safety behavior. Based on the results, it is necessary to develop and apply more effective and practical safety related education for police officers in addition to technical and institutional aspects in order to promote safety awareness and safety behavior practice.

정보통신기술과 컴퓨터의 보급은 다양한 정보통신 서비스 이용의 보편화와 청소년 들의 미디어 이용 형태에 큰 변화를 가져왔지만, 지적 재산권의 침해, 사생활 침해, 불건전 정보 유통, 컴퓨터시스템 파괴 등 정보통신윤리측면에서 문제를 야기 시키고 있다. 위와 같 은 문제점을 해결해 나가기 위하여 대구·경북지역의 청소년들을 대상으로 정보통신윤리의식 에 관한 실증조사를 실시한 결과, 정보통신윤리의식은 여성이 남성보다 높고, 학력별로는 고등학생이 대학생보다 높고, 거주지역 벼로는 중소도시의 청소년들이 대도시보다 상대적으 로 높은 윤리의식을 가지고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 컴퓨터 이용시간이 많을수록, 그리 고 컴퓨터 사용경력이 많을수록 불건전 정보유통에 대한 윤리의식은 낮은 결과를 보이고 있 다. 컴퓨터범죄와 일반범죄와의 인식차이는 여성이 남성보다 인식정도가 높게 나타났으며, 불건전정보 유통 경험에 대한 윤리의식은 고등학생이 대학생보다 높은 것을 알 수 있다.

As a result, the consumer's sense of responsibility was lower than that of the rights consciousness, and the consumer group with the responsibility consciousness corresponding to the right consciousness was making more rational and subjective decisions. Based on these results, it is confirmed that consumer education that emphasizes responsibility consciousness corresponding to right consciousness is necessary for desirable and subjective decision making of insurance consumers. This study is meaningful in that it provides basic data for contents development to raise the awareness of rights and responsibilities of insurance consumers who can solve consumer problems.

The purpose of this study was to identify consciousness of bio-medical ethics of nursing and non-nursing students. The total mean scores of consciousness of bio-medical ethics between nursing(3.04/4) and non-nursing(2.88/4) were significantly different(t=6.79, p<.001). There were statistically significant differences between two groups in sub-categories of consciousness of bio-medical ethics: right to life of fetus, prenatal diagnosis of fetus, right to life of newborn, euthanasia, organ transplantation, brain death. The major predicting factors for consciousness of bio-medical ethics were experience of studying for biomedical ethics over 1 semester, experience of conflict for biomedical ethic problem, and ethical attitude in nursing department. Study results indicate that appropriate and various teaching-learning method for education of each department is deeded according to move up into a higher class with consciousness of bio-medical ethics, ability of decision making, critical thinking.
