In church tradition, cultural misappropriation has often legitimized unjust hierarchy rather than to challenge it. Under the rubric of culturalism, Christian Education has served to justify the oppressive system and maintain status quo as well. A feminist theologian, Rebecca Chopp argues that the contemporary Western culture has intensified narcissistic individualism and self-referentiality and has supported the powerful, while forced the marginalized to be silent. Chopp insists that the role, nature, and mission of Christianity is to provide Word and words of emancipatory transformation. She advocates poststructural feminist theology and aims at renewal of the socio-symbolic order in society by criticizing assumptions underneath language, culture and politics. In this study, we will review the interview with an Asian-American couple and disclose the underlying assumptions and hegemony which have contributed to maintain the male domineering system. I suggest that Christian education for emancipatory transformation should encourage the oppressed women to reflect critically the existing order and to restore their own voice through constructive intervention facilitating "plurivociy" and "problem-posing" dialogue. Proclaimation of transformative Word can empower the marginalized people to revision the world alternatives to monotheistic patriarchal modernism.

The aim of this study was to examine middle school students' career attitude maturity with five career elements(career decisiveness, goal orientation, confidence, preparation, and independence) related to relational(parent, teacher, friend) and school adjustment (school life, instruction, environment) variables. To accomplish this, 467 collected data was passed through correlation, and simple and multiple regression analysis using SPSS win 12. The main finding was that friend's support was highly correlated to and significantly affected career preparation and independence of the students. School life and instruction were also highly correlated to their career preparation. Parents' and teachers' support affected their career decisiveness. Their school life was an important factor to influence career decisiveness, preparation, and independence of the students. Generally, friends' support and school life of the students were the most important factors that affected the students' career preparation and independence. From the findings, this study suggests that middle schools need to provide more vocational education, diverse after-school activities, and teacher training to support middle school students' career attitude maturity.

1975년 우라늄협회로 출발한 세계원자력협회(WNA)는 원자력을 평화적으로 이용하는 것을 적극 지원하고, 원자력 발전과 핵연료주기 전반에 걸친 원자력 산업 발전을 위하고자 설립한 세계적 민간 기구로, 우라늄 채광부터 변환, 농축, 핵연료 제조, 원자력발전 운영, 기자재(설비) 제작 및 사용후핵연료 처분에 이르기까지 원자력발전의 전 주기 산업을 촉진하고 관련 정보를 지원하고 있다. 2001년 지금의 명칭으로 변경한 WNA는 전 세계 원자력산업체와 원자력 관련 기관, 대학 등 175개 회원사를 두고 상호 협력과 전문 인력 교육 기반 강화, 국제화에 적극 나서고 있으며, 원자력산업 정보 제공과 교환을 위해 관련 보고서와 자료도 수시로 발행하고 있다. 2013년부터 WNA를 이끌고 있는 아그네타 라이징 사무총장은 지난 11월 영국 런던 소재 WNA를 방문한 <원자력신문>과의 인터뷰를 통해, 원전과 주변지역 주민의 갑상선암 발병에 대한 인과 관계에 대하여 "갑상선암 발병이 원전과 연관성 있다는 주장은 과학적 근거가 없다"고 단호히 말하고, "한국과 유사한 사례가 해외 원자력계(과학계)와 의학계에 보고된 적이 있냐"는 질문에 "해외에서 정상 운영되고 있는 원전 시설은 국제방사선방호위원회(ICRP)의 엄격한 기준(ICRP-60)이 적용하고 있으며, 방사선 방호와 관련된 연구보고서(논문)를 꾸준히 내고 있지만 원전 주변 주민에 대한 여러 역학 조사에서도 갑상선암이 증가했다는 사례는 보고된 바 없다"고 말했다. 또한 "실제로 일본 원폭 생존자 연구와 체르노빌 원전 주변 주민 연구에 의하면 20세 이상의 성인에서 방사선 노출에 의해 갑상선암이 증가한다는 증거는 없었다."면서 "체르노빌 사고와 후쿠시마 원전 사고 이후 방사선 누출로 인해 방사선이 갑상선암의 발생률을 증가시키는 것으로 알려졌지만 실제로 원전에서 발생하는 방사능은 갑상선암을 유발시킬 수 있는 양에 비해 아주 적다. 그럼에도 원전 시설에서 나오는 방사능 수치에 대해 제대로 밝히는 기관이 없기 때문에 원전 주변에 살아도 영향을 받는 것으로 오해할 수 있다."고 덧붙였다. 아그네타 라이징 사무총장은 스웨덴 출신의 방사선 방호 전문가로, 스웨덴 국영기업 Vattenfall AB 그룹에서 원자력 에너지 환경 분야 최고 전문가로 활동했으며, 스웨덴원자력학회, 유럽원자력학회, 세계여성원자력전문인회(WiN-Global) 회장 등을 역임했다. 인터뷰 전문을 게재한다.

The purpose of this study was to search stigma experiences of family members who take care of their mental illness patients. Participants consist of three parents, one child, one brother of mental illness patient. The period to collect data was from June to October 2010. We collected the data through depth interview with participants and observance of them. The data was analyzed using phenomenal analysis suggested by Giorgi. As a result, meaningful technologies abstracted from original data were 217, and based on these we induced 26 themes by grouping them with more abstract and integrated language and seven central meanings were induced herein again. Seven central meanings are about stigma of family members of mental illness patients and they are as follows: 'Improper dealing, loss of relationship with surrounding persons, oneself cannot be revealed, conflict with others, unbearable sympathy, incapacity of oneself, buck-passing of oneself'. This study could be a scientific base data to the development of efficient nursing intervention and to understand the pains of mental illness patients and their family members who inevitably have to be separated from the society by recognizing the meaning of stigma to them.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the factors affecting vegetable preferences of children based on the social cognitive theory to reduce imbalances in vegetable consumption. Methods: The survey investigated 177 elementary school students in Yangsan, Gyeongsangnam-do, in June of 2018. The subjects consisted of 44 fifth graders (27.7%) and 128 (72.3%) sixth graders. Results: Among personal factors of the Social Cognitive Theory, positive outcome expectation and self-efficacy of the vegetable preference group were significantly higher than those of the non-preference group. Negative barrier scores of the non-preference group were significantly higher than those of the preference group, and the biggest barrier was that vegetables were tasteless. Among behavioral factors, the nutritional knowledge of vegetables was high, but the degree of practice was low. Practice score of the vegetable preference group was significantly higher than that of the non-preference group. Among environmental factors, the vegetable preference group was more likely to accept advice from people around them than the non-preference group and the most influential people were doctors and parents. In the vegetable intake environment, children in the vegetable preference group had high accessibility to vegetables. Correlation analysis and regression analysis of the social cognitive factors and vegetable preferences revealed all factors except nutritional knowledge showed significant correlation with vegetable preference. And surrounding people (p < 0.01), practice (p < 0.01), and self-efficacy (p < 0.05) had positive effects on vegetable preference. Conclusion: These results suggest that providing the health benefits from eating vegetables and educating children for improving their self-confidence are necessary for increasing the preference for vegetables and their intake by children.

The sediments and soils around a mine are likely to be exposed to contamination of arsenic (As) through mining operations. In this study, the factors associated with As movement in soils around a closed zinc (Zn) mine were evaluated by the relationship of As distributions to physico-chemical properties of soils. A sequential extraction scheme, based on a soil P fractionation, was used to assess the As distributionsin solid phases. A significant difference in As distributions was found between paddy and upland soils. While As contents of paddy soils increased with soil depth, those of upland soils decreased with soil depth. In upland soils, As showed additional significant relationships to oxides of Si, Al and Fe. Although a major fraction of As in soils was found to be in the NaOH extractable fraction, As exhibited highly significant relationship to the Zn species that apparently originated from the mine. Therefore, As mobility around Zn mine seems to be governed by mass flow of the particulates containing As-associated Zn in paddy soils, whereas retention reactions such as adsorption, complexation, and precipitation seem to predominate in upland soils.

This study aims to understand the background and characteristics of receiving Hallyu based on the cognitions and attitudes toward Korea and Korean culture in the Philippines. With the background of Business Hallyu and Cultural Hallyu between the two countries, this study conducted the Focus Group Discussion(FGI) research, literature research and analyzed the statistical resources. The economic and cultural exchanges between Korea and the Philippines have been increased by the effect of Hallyu, but the socio-cultural conflicts, such as Kopino issue, crimes related to Koreans have been also grown. Thus, the Hallyu research focused on the Philippines is necessary, and it will be a cruical variable to forecast the socio-cultural relationship between Korea and the Philippines. The FGI research recruited participants in both undergraduates in the Phillippines and the Filippino migrants in Korea. The FGI participants of each group shows the differences of cognitions, attitudes, and actions to consume Hallyu, and the participants of both groups agrees that experiences of contacting Koreans influence on understanding Korea and its culture. The FGI participants have tried to watching Korean dramas, learning Korean languages, and building relationships with Koreans in order to adjust Korean culture. In order to improve the relations between Korea and the Philipines, Hallyu needs to promote its values as the unique culture and also universal culture in the world. Korea should increase understanding of the Filippino culture to overcome cultural differences and make efforts on localize the Hallyu 3.0 in the Phillippines.
