The experimental design was $10\times{2}\times{2(dress}\times{perceiver's age}\times{situation)}$ factorial design by 3 independent variables. The stimuli of color photographs of female in her 60's model and the semantic differential scale were used. Six variables of impression formation were used: preference: elegance: potency: activity: feminine: and modernity. Samples were 400 women 200 were in their twenties and 200 in their forties and fifties. The data were analyzed by $\alpha$-reliability t-test ANOVA and duncan's multiple range test. The Korean traditional dress with the combination of Korean traditional color(light blue upper dress with dark red purple collar and string.dark blue skit) had the most positive effect on impression of elegance. Pink traditional dress and light blue traditional dress had a negative effect on impression of potency activity and modernity. Red purple suit had a positive effect on potency and modernity. The interaction between dress perceiver's age and stituation was significant for the impression of activity. Women in their 40's and 50's perceived the activity of red purple suit positively in the situation of alumnae meeting more than in the wedding ceremony. The perceived age of the stimulus person was different according to dresses. Traditional dresses was perceived older than suits were. Women in their 40's and 50's evaluated preferences of the dresses positively more than 20's did.

The subjects were 320 female university students residing in the Seoul metropolitan area. First, wearing eyeglasses gave an impression of more intelligent image and less mild image. It was evaluated that the men wearing neckties have a high dimension of intelligence, and men wearing no necktie have a high dimension of progressiveness. Men with classic hairstyles had a high dimension of intelligence, while men with sports hairstyles had a high dimension of progressiveness, conspicuousness, and attractiveness. Second, metal rims on glasses had a high dimension of empowerment and attractiveness when a red necktie was worn, while horn-rimmed glasses with no necktie had a high dimension of conspicuousness and progressiveness. The men with sports hairstyles, with no eyeglasses had the highest dimension of progressiveness when a red necktie was worn. Third, it was evaluated that wearing a cloche hat or baseball cap had a low dimension of empowerment, while wearing a necklace had a high dimension of empowerment, conspicuousness, and progressiveness. Fourth, the men who wore a suit, eyeglasses, and a necktie with a classic hairstyle were deduced to be professionals, with high-ranking or white-collar jobs.

Immediate implant placement and restoration have the advantage of shortening the treatment period and maintaining aesthetics until final restoration. However, single implant restoration in the maxillary anterior region may be aesthetically difficult, and surgical trauma delivered to soft and hard tissues during implant placement may affect future aesthetic results. In order to obtain predictable results during anterior implant placement and restoration, surgery and restoration plans must consider the height of the interdental bone, characteristics of the gingiva, and morphological characteristics of the patient's teeth. In this case, we attempted to reproduce the emergence profile and stabilized soft tissue through gingiva modification and digital impression of a labially placed maxillary anterior implant in a patient who desired porcelain fused-metal (PFM) restoration due to economic issues.

지난 해 전 세계적인 금융쇼크로 인해 올해 국내 육계산업에도 적지 않은 영향을 끼쳤다고 볼 수 있다. 고환율로 인해 수입닭고기가 시장에 형성되지 못하고 정부에서는 농산물의 원산지표시제를 시행함으로써 국내산 닭고기 소비에 영향을 주었다. 더구나 우리 양계농가의 노력으로 올해는 고병원성 조류인플루엔자가 발생하지 않아 닭고기 소비도 꾸준함을 보였다. 하지만 외국에서 전량 수입되는 사료는 국제곡물가격의 인상으로 농가의 수당생산비가 상대적으로 증가되는 양상을 보였고 수입원자재도 동반상승하여 육계농가는 이중고를 겪어야만 했다. 뿐만 아니라 종계의 생산성 하락으로 병아리가격이 연중 700~800원으로 형성됨에 따라 실용계병아리의 품질이 관심의 대상이 되었으며 이런 현상은 당분간 지속될 것으로 보인다. 가금신종질병이 전국적으로 발생함에 따라 실제적으로는 육계농가의 수익은 평년보다 그리 높지 않은 것으로 파악된다. 이렇게 2009년은 육계인에게는 다사다난했던 한해로 기록될 것이며 한 해 동안 일어났던 4가지 이슈들을 정리해보았다.

The purpose of this study is to find out its effect on wearers' impression formated by combination of their body type with neutral tone clothing. The experimental materials developed for this study are a set of responses to stimulus in scales(7-point semantic). 45 pictures used as stimulus are, through computer simulation, manipulated to five wearers' body type and nine neutral tone wear. The subjects are 276(?) female undergraduate students in Kyung-nam area. Factors on wearers' impression suggested as responses to the stimulus consist of 5 different demensions (Tenderness, Cuteness, Attractiveness, Elegance, Intrepidity). The results of this study are as follows: first, combination of their body type with neutral tone wear significantly affects the formation of wearers' impression in the factor of Tenderness, Attractiveness, and Intrepidity (?); to the factor of Attractiveness, wearers' body type is rather more related than wearers' neutral tone wear is. Second, the harmony of their body type with neutral tone wear has a significant effect on wearers' impression in the factor of Cuteness. According to those results, the combination of wearers' body type with neutral tone wear has significant effects on the formation of wearers' impression.

The objectives of this study were to identify the dimensional structure of female impression formation based on ornaments and color of jacket, and to analyze the effect of ornaments, color of jacket, and perceiver's gender on impression formation. The experimental design was 3$\times$4$\times$2(ornaments$\times$color of jacket$\times$gender) factorial design by 3 independent variables. The stimuli of color photographs of female model and the semantic differential scale were used. Samples were 288 college males and females. The data were analyzed by factor analysis, ANOVA, duncan's multiple range test, and t-test. Four factors derived to account for the dimensions of impression formation. These were potency, elegance, evaluation, youthfulness, and feminine. Wearing of large ornaments(a necklace and earrings) had a negative effect on impression of elegance and positive on potency. Red jackets increased the impression of positive evaluation, potency, feminity, and youthfulness. On the jackets of achromatic color such as white and black, wearing of large ornaments increased the effect of potency, and large ornaments increased matured impression on black jacket. The results of this study mean that perceiverss used large ornaments and red jackets as a salient cue.
