To promote the aviation safety reporting system that is operated to enhance aviation safety and to utilize related information, it should first be preceded by standards for non-punishment and data protection. It is because the purpose of collection and analysis of aviation safety related data through the aviation safety reporting system is to prevent recurrence of accidents by investigating their causes through collection and analysis of diverse types of information related to aviation safety. Both mandatory and voluntary reporting systems are in operation for aviation safety under the current Aviation Safety Act. It is said that they were introduced to survey causes for accidents and to prevent recurrences. In fact, however, it is hard to expect active implementation of the reporting system for aviation safety unless the reporters are firstly exempted from punishment. Therefore, the system should be improved so that it can satisfy its purpose and the purposes of data collection concerning aviation safety through examination of the purposes of the reporting system. One of the matters that needs to be considered to promote the reporting system should be the scope of aviation safety hindrances presupposed under the current institution. The voluntary aviation safety reporting system differs from the systems of ICAO or the key advanced countries, including the USA and the UK as it limits the target accidents subject to reporting to minor aviation safety hindrances only. That being said, improvements should be made by requiring mandatory reporting of aviation safety hindrances based on their severity while recognizing a greater variety of aviation safety concerns like international standards. Safety actions and sharing of information based on collection and analysis of diverse data related to aviation safety will greatly contribute to enhance aviation safety as the purposes of the reporting system are to explore causes for accidents and to prevent their recurrences. What is most important in this regard is strict data protection and non-punishment principles; compliance with them should be secured. We can hardly expect the successful operation of the system unless the reporter is exempted from punishment and the relevant data is protected as promotion of voluntary reporting is an essential factor for enhancing the safety culture. Otherwise, the current system may induce hiding of relevant facts or data to evade punishment. It is true that the regulation for enhancing safety tends to have limitations or blind spots; nevertheless, it should still be enforced strictly and completely. Technological progresses and mistakes of operators appear in different forms based on individual cases. The consequential damages may amount to a truly severe level. Therefore, we have studied and suggested to the methods of activiation and amendments on the aviation safety reporting system, which is referred for one of the proactive safety management systems. The proposed improvement of the reporting system and introduction of non-punishment for collection of aviation safety data for deploying a preemptive prevention system would serve as the backbone for enhancing aviation safety in Korea.

Based on the Rodrik's four-way partition of institutions; market creating, market regulatory institution, market stabilizaing and market legitimizing institution, we analyze how FDI and interaction between FDI and democracy affect four kinds of institutions. By using fixed effect and system GMM model we estimate the direct and indirect effect of FDI on institutions within a large panel data set of 186 developing and developed countries for the period 1985-2009. We show that FDI inflows do not have a positive and significant impact on most kinds of institutions while interaction between democracy and FDI inflows have a significant and positive effect on market creating, market legitimizing and market stabilizing institution. The implication is FDI inflow does not directly lead to change the quality of institution but can indirectly improve it on the condition that democracy of host country become mature. To our knowledge this is the first article to empirically test the FDI and four-way unbundled institutions linkages.

The stability of W/O emulsions (milk fat : water=4 : 1, w/w) containing various emulsifiers was compared to determine the effect of different chemical types of emulsifiers in relation to the change of HLB value caused by emulsifier type and the influence of single vs. binary emulsifier systems. These variables were compared at emulsifier HLB values of 0.5~16.7 and at emulsifier concentrations of 1.0~3.0%(w/w). Eleven emulsifiers used as 11 different single mixtures and 16 different binary mixtures were evaluated in W/O type emulsion systems containing 20.0%(w/w) of water in milk fat. This W/O emulsion was stable (more than 90.0 of ESI value) in the range of low value of emulsifier HLB (less than 4.7 of HLB value). All the ESI values of binary emulsifier systems were higher than those of single emulsifier systems. But, the influence pattern of emulsifier HLB on this emulsion stability in single emulsifier systems was very similar to the trend in binary emulsifier systems.

The major purpose of this study is to evaluate the impact of the long-term care insurance program. In order to estimate the impact of policy accurately, certain bias which might hamper the validity of this study has been removed by Propensity Score Matching(PSM) and Double Difference(DD) method from the semi-experimental design. To study the effects of long-term care insurance on the elderly and their family members as social outcome variable sand the quality of life of their family and satisfaction in family relationships, the third and fourth waves of Korea Welfare Panel are used to match experimental and comparative groups by the propensity score matching. Then, DD method, using the panel fixed effects model, is applied to estimate the differences of those groups'treatment effects before and after the policy implementation. As a result, it was found that the Quality of life on the elderly and their family members is statistically meaningless, while the satisfaction in family relationships has much increased after the policy implementation. The result has a limitation in that this evaluation is performed at the point when the long-term insurance program has not been ripened enough. However, there is an important implication on the significance of realizing the main goal of the long-term care insurance to improve the quality of life of the elderly and their family members and as for the potentiality of further system improvements.

뇌손상이라고 하는 과도한 stress를 받았을 때 free cortisol의 분비되는 양과 urinary free cortisol의 circadian 리듬에 어떻게 영향을 주는지 확인하기 위하여 시도하였다. 연구대상은 대조군은 건강한 젊은 여성 6명과 실험군응 CT상 뇌에 손상을 받은 4명의 여성으로 30대 환자이었다. 담당의사와 중환자실 관리책임자의 동의하에서 시도되었으며, 실험기간은 2000년 7월 1일에서 7월 10일까지였다. 대조군과 실험군의 뇨를 채취하여 뇨중 free cortisol 농도의 circadian rhythm을 알아보기 위해 채뇨 후 분석하였다. 채뇨는 뇌손상을 받고 응급실을 통해 신경외과 중환자실에 입원한 지 5시간 이내에 해당된 환자로 24시간 유지되는 foley catherization 상태하에서 12:00부터 3일동안 72시간을 2시간 간격으로 채뇨하였고, 대조군은 오전 12시부터 24시간 동안 2시간 간격으로 채뇨하였다. 측정방법으로는 cortisol의 정량은 solid-phase radioimmuoassay 방법을 이용하였으며, 분석재료는 Coat-A-Count(R) Cortisol kit(DPC, U.S.A.)을 사용하여 DPC사의 측정방법을 따랐다. 연구대상자의 free cortisol의 총량은 대조군에서는 $42.8{\mu}g$이었고, 실험군은 1일에 $991.2{\mu}g$, 2일에 $809{\mu}g$, 3일에 $544.2{\mu}g$으로 대조군과 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 나타내(p<.05), 실험군에서 현저하게 증가된 양상을 보였고, 시간이 지나면서 점점 감소하는 경향을 나타냈다. 시간별로 t-검정으로 분석한 결과로는 모든 시간대에서 대조군과 실험군의 평균치는 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. Free cortisol의 circadian에서는 대조군에서는 정상인의 cortisol의 circadian의 경우와 같은 리듬을 보였으나, 손상을 받은 실험군의 경우 분비량은 현저하게 증가했음을 보여주었다. 최고치가 제1일에 18:00과 다음날 10:00에 나타나 최고치가 2회 나타났으며, 제2일에도 제1일과 마찬가지로 18:00에 나타났고, 제3일에는 24:00에 나타나 제1일보다 제2일에는 최고치가 한 번 나타난 리듬을 보여주었고, 분비량은 2일에 감소하였다. 제3일에는 최고치가 8시간 지연된 나타난 리듬의 변화를 보여주었다. 최저치는 제1일, 제2일, 제3일 모두 24:00에 나타난 리듬을 보여주었다. 이상의 결과에서 실험군인 뇌손상 환자군에서는 뇌손상이 과도한 stress로 작용하여 환자의 free cortisol 분비량과 circadian 리듬에도 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 뇌손상환자를 간호하는 간호사는 스트레스상태인 것을 인지하여 환자 개개인에 필요한 간호를 해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

The aim of this study was to identify the awareness of the animal registration system, as well as to determine if there is a difference according to the types of pet attachment of consumers raising companion dogs. For this purpose, 250 data were collected by conducting an online survey and analyzed the data using SPSS 24.0. As a result of the study, pet attachment was identified as a companion attachment and emotional attachment. According to the form of attachment to dogs, the consumer types were categorized into three groups: type of simple cohabitation(25.6%), type of close companion(30.4%), and type of strong bond(44.0%). It was found that there are statistically significant differences in the relationship between the recognition and registration of the animal registration system for each consumer type. In addition, there were statistically significant differences in the perception and preference of the animal registration system depending on the type of consumer. This study has significance in that it suggests the effective direction of developing the consumer-oriented animal registration system.

This paper analyzed the integration cases of the social insurance systems of Germany, Sweden and United Kingdom. On the basis of the two dimensions - institutional and organizational integration, this study reviewed the historical processes of the social insurance integration of the three countries. In Germany, the institutions and the organizations are divided still now and the sickness insurance funds take charge of the entitlement and collection services. In Sweden, the social insurance system is divided by institutions but the organizations were united. the Inland Revenue has charge of the entitlement and collection. In UK, the institutions and the organizations were united and the entitlement and collection services is assigned to the Inland Revenue. Regarding these historical processes of the social insurance integration of developed countries, this paper evaluated the transfer of the collection service to the National Health Insurance Corporation in Korea, which was enforced in 2011.
