It can determine the outcome of the lawsuit whether or not there is a causality between the medical malpractice of a physician and the patient's injury when the patient is filing a lawsuit against the physician in order to pursue civil liability for a medical accident. In medical malpractice lawsuits, it is not easy to judge causality between different civil cases because of the special nature of medical care. Also, information such as medical records is concentrated on doctors and the medical knowledge of the patient is relatively insufficient compared with the doctor. Therefore, it is recognized through medical malpractice lawsuits that the burden of proof of the causality burdened by the plaintiff patient is relaxed. In this paper, I examine the legal theory on how to recognize causality in medical civil liability and then concern the attitude of the case in Korea, which is divided into the types of the causality - such as the case of general medical practice, explanation duty, no causality with medical malpractice.

The intellectuals of the Joseon Dynasty were Yangban Sadaebu who had knowledge based on Confucianism(Neo-Confucianism), enjoyed cultural powers by expressing their knowledge in words or writing, and entered government posts to guide society with such knowledge or included some pre-officials. Sisa(Poem Society) was a major place of knowledge transmission to acquire and impart knowledge of creating Chinese poems that traditional intellectuals of the Joseon Dynasty possessed. Seocheonmaehwasa(西泉梅花社) was a group of writers from the late Joseon Dynasty gathered together based on the commonality of kinship and political iniquity although they were different factions like Nam'in and Soron, and they enjoyed apricot blossoms and wrote poems there. Seocheonmaehwasa(西泉梅花社) was basically the meeting making poems. They improved their creative abilities with creating poems. Seocheonmaehwasa(西泉梅花社) was a major place of knowledge transmission to acquire and impart knowledge of creating Chinese poems that traditional intellectuals of the Joseon Dynasty possessed.

정성적 추론은 자연 세계에 대한 정성적, 직관적인 지식을 밝혀내어 코드화하는 목표를 갖고 연구되어왔다. 정성적 추론은 전자, 기계 등의 도메인에서 성공적으로 사용되어 그 실효성을 입증할 수 있었으나, 대부분의 추론은 시뮬레이션에 집중되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 주어진 상황에서 변화가 발생했을 때, 이 변화가 어떻게 영향을 미치며 파급되는지를 예측할 수 있는 정성적 비교분석 기법을 소개하고지 한다. 주어진 상황에 대한 인과모델이 정성적 분야 모델로부터 형성되고 여기에 비교분석 추론 기법을 적용하여 변화의 연쇄적인 인과 관계를 추적하게 된다. 이러한 기법은 변화의 예측 뿐 아니라, 이런 변화를 이끌어낸 인과 관계를 설명하는 기능을 제공하게 되어, 디자인, 진단, 지능형 교육 시스템, 환경 영향평가 등에 이용되리라 기대된다.

최근 조직 내 정보시스템이 제공하는 지식과 정보에 대한 공유와 교환이 더 이상 성공적이라고 판단되지 않음에 따라 그 대안으로써 가상공동체(Virtual Community)가 주목받고 있다. 그러나, 가상공동체에서 살아있는 지식과 정보의 공유를 위해서는 공동체 안의 구성원인 리더와 구성원(팔로워) 들의 상호작용을 통한 몰입이 매우 중요하다는 인식이 확산되었다. 그러나, 이러한 몰입에 영향을 주는 리더-구성원 간의 영향관계는 충분히 연구된 바 없다. 이에 본 연구는 가상공동체에서 리더의 리더십 스타일과 팔로워의 특성 그리고 이들 간의 동기와 신뢰가 가상공동체의 몰입에 미치는 인과관계에 대해 분석하고자 하였다. '지각된 리더의 배려'로 측정된 '서번트 리더십'과 '지각된 리더의 조직지향'을 통해 측정된 '변혁적 리더십'이 구성원의 팔로워십과 동기, 리더와 조직에 대한 신뢰에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 460명의 가상공동체 구성원을 통해 실증적으로 분석하였다. 분석결과 서번트 리더십과 구성원의 팔로워십 특성이 구성원의 몰입에 있어서 중요한 역할을 수행함을 알 수 있었다.

Three experiments were conducted using a verification task to examine good and poor readers' generation of causal inferences(with because sentences) and contrastive inferences(with although sentences). The unfamiliar, critical verification statement was either explicitly mentioned or was implied. In Experiment 1, both good and poor readers responded accurately to the critical statement, suggesting that both groups had the linguistic knowledge necessary to the required inferences. Differences were found, however, in the groups' verification latencies. Poor, but not good, readers responded faster to explicit than to implicit verification statements for both because and although sentences. In Experiment 2, poor readers were induced to generate causal inferences for the because experimental sentences by including fillers that were apparently counterfactual unless a causal inference was made. In Experiment 3, poor readers were induced to generate contrastive inferences for the although sentences by including fillers that could only be resolved by making a contrastive inference. Verification latencies for the critical statements showed that poor readers made causal inferences in Experiment 2 and contrastive inferences in Experiment 3 doting comprehension. These results were discussed in terms of context effect: Specific encoding operations performed on anomaly backgrounded in another passage would form part of the context that guides the ongoing activity in processing potentially relevant subsequent text.

The purpose of this study is to look for the factors that facilitate knowledge sharing among public official in the department of social welfare, and to find whether the intention to share knowledge influences the knowledge sharing. In order to accomplish the purpose of the research model, the independent variables were trust, openness in communication, anticipated reciprocal relationship, and efficacy. The intervening variable was intention to share knowledge, and the dependent variable was knowledge sharing. The significant finding that came out of this research model is that trust, anticipated reciprocal relationship and efficacy positively influenced the intention to share knowledge. Efficacy positively affected knowledge sharing. Intention to share knowledge had a significant influence on the knowledge sharing. According to the results of this study, in order to improve effective knowledge sharing in the public sector or in the private sector, we suggested that social workers have to consider why they should share knowledge in the social welfare organization. Social workers in the public sector or in the private sector must develop ways to share the knowledge possessed within the organization with the people who need that knowledge.

Despite many theoretical and empirical studies, general causality between IPRs system, firm technological innovation and financial performance is not clear. This study notices that the core factor to create financial performance is different by each industry. The study analyzed the effect of IPRs system on innovation and economic growth targeting 3 industries; pharmaceutical industry to which the basic track of creating performance is applied (strengthening IPRs${\rightarrow}$increasing R&D input/output${\rightarrow}$increasing sales); semiconductor industry where the relationship between stronger IPRs and R&D input/output is weak; and shipbuilding industry which has weak correlation between R&D and sales. It used panel data for 15 years since TRIPs when the patent institution in Korea reached up to the level of advanced countries, and applied the dynamic regression model which estimates the fixed effect model with difference-GMM. As a result, stronger IPRs increased R&D input/output, and financial performance in pharmaceutical industry, but has no influence on semiconductor and shipbuilding industries. That is, it is necessary to customize the construction of system and policy for strengthening IPRs by each industry, and unitary strengthening or weakening may have no significant impact on financial performance improvement in specific sectors.

This study aims to examine the causal relationships between sales and employment for public technology-based startups. Although there is a limit to statistical generalization due to the poor understanding of the actual conditions of public technology start-up companies, these companies were analyzed by classifying them into high-growth companise, potential growth companies, and other companies. In order to understand the causal relationship, and to estimate the time required to be effective, panel vector autoregression was applied. As a result, the performance creation mechanism was identified as government supoort and private investment was mutually causal with employment, sales did not cause employment, and employment caused sales. In other words, it was found that employment plays an mediator role in public technology based startups' performance mechanism. In addition, private investment had the effect of improving employment and sales in the short time than governments support, and showed that firms with high employment can attract government support and private investment. This study are academically meaningful in that they empirically revealed the process of performance creation, whereas previous studies had only shown whether there was an effect on performance. It also has a policy contribution by suggesting the need for effective policy promotion by considering the 'employment' factor, such as human resource support, as more important.

Objectives: This study was to examine HIV/AIDS knowledge of transmission, attitudes toward homosexuals on stigma of HIV/AIDS and discriminatory attitudes towards person with HIV/AIDS (PWHAs) by middle and high school students in Seoul, Korea. Methods: The population of this study is middle and high school students in Seoul, Korea. Eight junior high schools and eight senior high schools were selected randomly. Three thousand and one hundred thirty-one students (1704 males and 1397 males) from 16 schools participated in the survey, and 2.977 cases were analyzed. A self-administered questionnaire measuring socio-demographic variables, HIV/AIDS knowledge of transmission, sigma of HIV/AIDS (3 items, 5-point Likert-type scale) and discriminatory attitudes PWHAs (5 items, 5-point Likert-type scale) was utilized. The Structural Equation Modeling was employed to investigate the research Model. Results: The empirical study shows that a number of statistical hypotheses are significant. The stigma and discriminatory attitudes PWHAs were significantly different by middle and high school students. The attitudes toward homosexuals and HIV/AIDS knowledge of transmission were important factors on stigma and discriminatory attitudes PWHAs. Socio-demographical variables such as sex was related to the stigma and discriminatory attitudes PWHAs. Conclusion: Therefore, it is important to design HIV prevention strategies that increase in positive attitudes towards PWHAs.

Both knowledge management and BSC practices are in its inception in the tourism field, and the study explores the relationships between knowledge and BSC perspectives using correlations and path analysis. The purpose of this study was to explore the casual relationships among tourist destination knowledge and BSC performance perspectives. The study model added knowledge perspectives to the usual BSC model (with customer, growth and learning, internal process, and financial perspectives), in addition to the modification of the financial perspectives to economic, socio-cultual and physical impact. The study found out that knowledge supports learning and growth perspectives greatly, and less extent, internal processes and customer perspectives. Learning and growth affects internal processes and customer perspectives. Internal process supports customer perspectives. Both customer and, less extent, internal process have impact on the final results. The final analysis results were different by destination type. The study concludes with recommendations for further studies including rational BSC model for tourist destinations and relationships between BSC performance indicators.
