This paper presents a multivariate kriging algorithm that integrates categorical data as secondary data for spatial interpolation of sparsely sampled ground survey data. Instead of using constant mean values in each attribute of categorical data, disaggregated local mean values at target grid points are first estimated by area-to-point kriging and then are used as local mean values in simple kriging with local means. This algorithm is illustrated through a case study of spatial interpolation of a geochemical copper element with geological map data. Cross validation results indicates that the presented algorithm leads to significant respective improvement of 15% and 25% in prediction capability, compared with univariate ordinary kriging and conventional simple kriging with constant mean values. It is expected that the multivariate kriging algorithm applied in this study would be effectively applied for spatial interpolation with categorical data.

The purposes of the study are to describe the feature of the program components, and to identify their changes in the process of designing the social work programs in the community service agencies in Korea. In order to achieve these purposes, the researchers constructed an analytical framework including 24 program components derived from the related literatures. Data was collected by questionnaires answered by the social workers who were in charge of the program development and implementation. Descriptive statistics analysis and factor analysis were applied to exam the features of the program components in 195 social service programs developed by the funds from the Community Chest of Korea and a private funding foundation. As the result of the analysis, the three noticeable features are found; (1) the agencies have very actively involved in the designing work in the process of developing practice guideline, however they have less involved in the designing work in the process of implementing program; (2) program components which are low level in design activities are intervention models, staff education, and practical ethics; (3) 8 categories of components derived from the theoretical perspective are reduced to 6 categories in the process for developing practice guidelines, finally to 4 categories in the process for implementing the programs. The implications of major findings were discussed in academic and practical perspectives in Korea, including future research works in the area.

Extending the findings of Rajagopal and Burnkrant (2009), this research examines the moderating role of consumers' goals (i.e., head category-relevant goal vs. modifier category-relevant goal) in the effects of two different interpretation strategies (i.e., relational interpretation vs. property interpretation) on product beliefs and attitudes toward hybrid products. In the current research, we make two predictions. First, we predict that both head category and modifier category beliefs will be higher under property interpretations than under relational interpretations in the modifier category-relevant goal priming conditions, whereas there will be no significant differences between each product category beliefs across the two interpretation conditions in the head category-relevant goal priming conditions. Second, we predict that attitudes toward hybrid products will be higher under property interpretations than under relational interpretations in the modifier category-relevant goal priming conditions, whereas there will be no significant differences between the attitudes toward hybrid products across the two interpretation conditions in the head category-relevant goal priming conditions. These predictions are tested and confirmed in two experiments. Finally, we discuss theoretical and practical implications of our findings and develop directions for future research.

Statistical models are proposed for analyzing categorical data in the presence of missing observations or nonresponses which might occur in the sampling surveys and polls. As an illustration, we analyzed real polling data of the pre-presidential election in the USA, 1948, It had been predicted that Dewey would win the election. However, Truman won in the actual election.

This study examines motivations for international students to study abroad at Korean universities. Employing qualitative and mixed methods, this study used grounded theory to analyse data obtained from student interviews, essays, digital storytelling videos, and student video representations to explicate the nature of study of six subjects. All subjects were enrolled in English Education courses during years 2014-2017. The researcher was the course instructor. Results from this study revealed that major codes that emerged from data analyses were those of economics, culture, language study, and personal development, corroborating with findings of most research literature regarding international students' motivations (OUSO, 2015). However, survey of professional literature and study data showed that motivational codes presented in the literature and this study, were discursive in nature in that each code was not only connected to all other codes, but also mutually co-constructive. As such, this study suggests that motivational codes found in study abroad literature were discursive in nature, resembling Bourdieu's (1991) theory of economic, social, and cultural capitals. Results of this study suggest that various motivations for studying abroad are subsumed under economic logic of expense and career development.

In order to screen for the best species for mitigating air pollutants by plants at an industrial complex area, we investigated antioxidant capacity, lipid peroxidation and nitrogen content in the leaves of 27 taxa of woody plants that are mostly utilized as roadside trees. Among 27 taxa, the highest value of antioxidant capacity was given by Cedrus deodara (91.4%) and the lowest one was by Firmiana simplex (56.9%). At lipid peroxidation level, little malondialdehyde (MDA) was observed in Lagerstroemia indica and Ginkgo biloba, but Platanus occidentalis, Castanoposis cuspidata var, sieboldii, Machilus thunbergii and Juniperus chinensis showed high MDA content. Antioxidant capacity of the deciduous woody plants was not significantly different in comparison with that of the evergreen ones. But MDA content of the deciduous woody plants was lower than that of the evergreen ones. The 27 taxa of woody plants appeared to be classified into four types: those of high antioxidant capacity and low lipid peroxidation, those of high antioxidant capacity and high lipid peroxidation, those of low antioxidant capacity and low lipid peroxidation, and those of low antioxidant capacity and high lipid peroxidation. The taxa included in these types are 7 (first type), 6 (second one), 8 (third one) and 6 (fourth one) taxa. first or second type species which have a high antioxidant capacity represented low nitrogen content in their leaves. However, third or forth type species which have low antioxidant capacity showed high nitrogen content in their leaves. Metasequoia glyptostroboides, Platycarya strobilacra and P. occidentalis which belong to the first or second type had extraordinarily high antioxidant capacity and high nitrogen content. Thus, three species are considered to be good phytoremediators for an industrial complex area.

Using qualitative research methodology, this study has investigated the semantic features of 39 nouns, which are classified into the categories of grains, fruits and vegetables. A survey has been conducted with a substantial number of undergraduate students, who were asked to describe any semantic features they associated with the lexical items within the three categories. The analysis of the survey data shows that the concepts of examples of fruits are defined predominantly by intrinsic semantic features, while those of grains and vegetables are defined noticeably by extrinsic semantic features rather than intrinsic ones. Intrinsic semantic features are any properties inherent in an object itself and extrinsic semantic features are defined as any properties constructed by association with other objects or personal experiences in a certain situation. However, this study does not maintain that either intrinsic or extrinsic semantic features solely define the concepts of the examples of the three categories. Instead, it concludes that both kinds of semantic features are involved in the representation of the concepts of those vocabularies, with intrinsic features salient in the category of fruits and extrinsic features salient in the categories of gains and vegetables.

본 연구에서는 시각적으로 제시되는 단어 자극의 의미 관련성의 차이에 따라 좌우반구의 처리가 어떻게 이루어지는지 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해서 명칭성 실어증 환자와 정상인 대학생 피험자를 대상으로 점화 어휘판단 과제를 수행하였다. 이 연구의 기본 논리는 명칭성 실어증 환자의 왼쪽 뇌가 손상되어 있기 때문에 어떤 정보처리가 왼쪽 뇌에서 일어나는 것이라면 정상인과 명칭성 실어증환자간의 수행에서 어떤 차이가 나타날 것을 기대되는 반면, 만일에 우뇌에서 처리되는 것이라면 정상인의 과제 수행 형태와 명칭성 실어증 환자의 것이 일치하는 형태를 보일 것이라는 것이다. 실험 1에서는 수직적 범주관련성이 어느 반구에서 정보처리 되는지를 조사하였다. 그 결과 정상인은 좌반구에서 유의미한 점화효과가 있고 우반구에서는 점화효과가 없었던 반면에, 명칭성 실어증 환자는 정상인과 정반대의 점화 효과를 보이고 있다. 이러한 결과는 좌반구가 일차적으로 수직적 범주 관련성 정보처리와 관련이 있음을 시사해 준다. 또한 수평적 범주 관련성에 따른 실험 은 정상인과 환자 두 집단 모두 수평적 범주관련성이 우반구에서 처리되는 유사한 패턴을 보여주었다. 실험2에서는 연합적 범주관련성에 따른 두 집단간의 점화 효과를 비교하였다. 정상인 집단과 환자 모두 좌우반구에 점화효과를 보여주고 있지만, 정상인 집단의 경우에는 우반구에서, 환자는 좌반구에서 점화량이 더 컸다. 연합관련 정보처리는 좌우반구 모두에서 일어난다고 하는 기존의 견해와 관련하여 볼 때 연합관련 정보처리는 좌우반구에서 일어난다고 해석할 수 있을 것이다. 명칭 실어증 환자의 정보처리는 정상인과 다르게 이루어지므로 이러한 좌우반구에서의 차이가 난 것으로 볼 수 있다. 이상의 실험1과 2의 결과를 종합해 보면, 시각적으로 제시되는 단어의 범주적 관련성이 주는 어휘정보 처리는 반구에 따라 처리하는 기능이 다르다고 결론 내릴 수 있다. 즉, 좌반구는 수직적 범주 관련성을 담당하고 우반구는 수평적 관련성을 담당하며, 연합적 관련성은 좌우반구 모두에서 정보처리 된다는 것이다.

This study aims to explore the combinations of services and technologies for academic libraries to use based on librarians' perception and establish effective service strategies accordingly. The literature review facilitated an understanding of Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies impacting the libraries. We discovered how technologies are transforming library services. We analyzed the academic library services to categorize their service structure. The survey revealed the necessity of introducing technology for each service category and the appropriate automation levels of services based on the perception of librarians. The survey results identified nine prioritized combinations of academic library services and technologies. Based on the analysis, we proposed the service-technology strategies for each category. This study has significance in exploring the potential for introducing and utilizing new technologies to enhance academic library services and exploring ways to combine services and technologies based on the common opinion of librarians.
