This study aimed to compare changes in cognitive function, depression and ability to perform activity of daily living (ADL) in patients with dementia, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and ischemic stroke (IS) and to identify factors associated with changes in instrumental ADL. A total of 86 patients (dementia=30, MCI=32, and IS=24) were included to analyse cognitive function, depression, and basic and instrumental ADL obtained at the time of diagnosis and 1 year after baseline. Repeated measures analysis of variance and multiple linear regression were used. A significant group by time interaction was found in executive function (p=.037) and instrumental ADL (p=.023) across groups. The MCI group has little change in executive function and instrumental ADL from the baseline to 1 year after diagnosis while other two groups showed changes with the dementia group showing declines and the group of IS having improvement in these factors over time. Changes in executive function(p=.030) and basic ADL (p<.001) explained 26.9% in the variance of changes in instrumental ADL. These findings showed a different changing pattern in executive function during the first year after diagnosis of dementia, MCI, and IS which have cognitive changes as their main symptoms, probably leading to a different changing pattern in instrumental ADL. Healthcare professionals should routinely assess for executive function and instrumental ADL problems and intervene to maintain and improve these functional outcomes immediately after disease.

This research is a phenomenological case study to find about the process of becoming alcohol dependence among women, with a lifetime contextual point of view. The first phenomenon which participants experience within their lifetime was 'incomplete relationship'. This was a trigger to become alcohol dependence. The researchers whom participated in this research focused on the first alcohol intake. The first drink has been given a unique meaning as 'characteristic symbol system'. While the participants were choosing alcohol, dailiness, a continuum of daily life emerged. With dailiness aspect, alcohol dependence goes through a process of 'invasion or penetration'. Through these processes alcohol dependent experience among women became 'meaninglessness and mirage'. According to these results undertone to approach women alcohol dependence was able to be deducted.

축제가 가지는 많은 속성 중 하나는 일탈성과 장소성이다. 축제는 일상을 벗어나지 못한 사람들에게 일상에서 느낄 수 없는 새로운 기회를 제공할 수 있는 기능이 있어야 한다. 하지만 축제의 정체성을 유지하기 위해서는 일상생활에서 유리되면 안 된다. 축제는 일상에 기반을 두어 일상에서의 벗어남을 제공해주어야 한다. 이 글에서는 Taste of Chicago를 소개해 본다. Taste of Chicago는 미국에서 꼭 가봐야 할 만큼 유명한 축제는 아니지만 도시의 삶 속에서 도시의 축제를 만들어가는 미국 축제의 일면을 보여주는 축제여서 소개하고자 한다.

Life Science or Home Economics has its own history of scholarship. In South Korea, the School of Home Economics was regarded as the best school of 'producing best brides' in the early stage of its academic history. Since the 1980s when South Korean society went through a speedy economic growth with development of culture and service industry, the school was transformed to educating highly professional career women in the field of industry which deals with everyday lives. As an applied science in nature, the school of Home Economics has had a heavy emphasis on engineering the familial and social life. It also has heavily depended on imported theories and statistical researches. In the crisis of familial and social disintergration, the role of School of Home Economics needs to be redefined. Reexamination of the premises of Home Economics and methodology is necessary. Decolonializaton of the scholarship in the changed condition of global capitalism is particularly urgent in the late modern era of reflexion.

Objective : To identify the effect of bilateral arm training for activities of daily living(ADL) of the chronic phase after stroke. Methods : 20 patients with stroke, randomized to an experimental group(n=10) and a control group(n=10). Both groups received the usual occupational therapy. In addition, an experimental group received an bilateral arm training, 30-min sessions per a day for 6 weeks. The Functional Independence Measure(FIM) was used to evaluate ADL for both groups. Results : First, there is a significant difference before and after receiving the bilateral arm training(p <.05). Second, there are significant differences in all ADL areas of Self-care, Transfer, Social cognition after bilateral arm training(p<.05). Third, there are significant differences in all sub-areas of Self-care, only stairs of Locomotion, and only Problem solving of Social cognition by comparing sub-areas as bilateral arm activity(before and after) and occupational therapy intervention(before and after). Conclusion : Using bilateral arm training for the chronic phase after stroke improved their abilities of ADL. Therefore, there are an expectation to use bilateral activity training for the chronic after stroke clinically and a need of further study about bilateral arm training related to ADL in the future.

The purpose of this study is to extract the conceptual nature of contextualization in mathematical problems and to analyze problems according to its conceptual framework based on the perspective of RME (Realistic Mathematical Education) which emphasizes mathematising through realistic context in mathematics textbooks of the 4th grade in Korean textbooks and the U. S. materials. "Contextualization" was analyzed by three elements such as everydayness, variety, and mathematical immanence. As results, Korean textbook showed much less in the amount of contextual problems and also represented lower contextualization in contextual problems than that of American textbooks.

The purpose of this research is to test the relationship between ACLT(Allen Cognitive Level Test) and FIM(Functional Independence Measure), MMSE-K(Mini-Mental State Examination), and MFT(Manual Function Test). 38 elderly persons with stroke were recruited. Pearson Correlation Coefficients is used for correlation test. There is statistically significant correlation between ACLT and FIM, MMSE-K, and MFT(p<.05). This results identified the relationship between cognitive function and activities of daily living, indicated the usability of ACLT as a cognition assessment tool and the need of research for it's application in stroke patients.

The frequency of KPAS alerts is causing the behavior of blocking KPAS alerts. It is necessary to control the frequency of KPAS alerts to prevent this behavior. This study analyzed the effect of problematic frequency types on the adjustment expectation of KPAS alerts. Three types of problematic frequency were selected: dailiness, other areas, similarity. An online survey with 1,212 participants was analyzed, with the following result. The three types of problematic frequency positively influenced the adjustment expectation of KPAS alerts. It turned out that the unique contribution of individual variables was found in the order of similarity, other areas, and dailiness. These results are meaningful in that they can be used as basic data for the improvement of the frequency of KPAS alerts.

This study was conducted to investigate changes in activities of daily living (ADLs) according to the Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) after one year of physical and occupational therapy and to compare the responsiveness of ADL tools. A total of 48 children with spastic cerebral palsy participated in the study. The GMFCS, Functional Independence Measure for Children (WeeFIM), and Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory (PEDI) were measured. The results showed that the GMFCS was significantly correlated with the PEDI (p<0.05), while there was a significant difference in the change of ADLs measured by the PEDI, but not the WeeFIM. There was a significant difference in the changes in ADLs according to the GMFCS, and the change in ADLs in the high functional level group was significantly higher than in the low functional level group (p<0.05). After physical and occupational therapy, the degree of improvement of ADLs varied according to the GMFCS, but seemed to be improved in a clinically meaningfully way. The PEDI is sensitive to changes in ADLs, so it may be used widely in clinical practice.

We can constantly gather personal life log from developed mobile device. However, gathered personal life log in mobile environment have a large amount log and uncertainty such as uncertainty of mobile environment, limited capacity and battery of mobile device. Tagging task using a landmark such as a key word should be required to overcome the above problem and to manage personal life log. In this paper, we propose new tagging method and a life log tagging interface using high level context recognizer based on probability. The new tagging method extract high level context such as landmark of life log using recognizer which is modeled from bayesian network and recommend recognized high level context to user using tagging interface. Finally user can directly do tagging task to life log. This task is a special feature in our process. As the result of experiments in task support level which include usability, level of a goal, function and leading, we achieved a feeling of satisfaction of 81%.
