This study investigated cross-informant measures of peer group victimization. The subjects were 460 children in the fifth and sixth grades. Children completed questionnaires that assessed their own victimization feelings of loneliness, and self-perception. They also completed peer nominations concerning peer acceptance and rejection. The results suggest that self-reported victimization is more predictive of loneliness and self-perception, whereas victimization from peer nominations is more predictive of peer rejection and acceptance.

This study aims to provide research fields and topics to complement, extend and develop the geographical toponymy in Korea, largely based on a summary of topics discussed in the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN). The Korean toponymic research has generally focused on revealing human, social and physical characteristics of the region by investigating the creation and change of the geographical names, with the perspective of creator and owner of the toponyms. Toponymic researches in the UNGEGN, in comparison, have put forward with the mission of standardization of geographical names and with specific emphasis on the users of toponyms. The topics include diverse forms of toponyms by user groups, roles of language groups, preservation of toponyms with specific value, etc. As research directions for an establishment of extended geographical toponymy accommodating discussions in the UNGEGN, further research topics are suggested; use of exonyms and endonyms in the Korean language, the nature of geographical feature and perception over it, writing systems for inter-language communication, and geographical names as intagible cultural heritage.

This study has a research objective to suggest detailed rules and principles to transcribe geographical names in English for English version electronic map service. For this, guidelines which are used in English transcription of local geographical names in Korea and English transcription situations of Korea geographical names in foreign electronic map service were examined. Examining results of current situations showed the English transcription method of home and abroad geographical names caused the chaos because it is not homogenized. In order to identify easy and preferred transcription method for foreigners among English transcription methods about the geographical names which are used together like this, the preference of English transcription methods of the geographical names was examined targeting foreigners. Survey results showed that foreigners prefer to transcribe in Roman character (Romanization) with its semantic word together than just to transcribe the Roman character. Reflecting this preference research results, our country's geographical names were classified as Natural features, Cultural features and man-made structures, and Administrative units and the detailed English transcription rules and principles of each geographical names were suggested.

The academic values of Joseon jiji jaryo (Geographical Documents of Joseon) are that native Korean toponyms corresponding with toponyms in Sino-Korean characters (hanzi 漢字) are abundantly recorded nationwide. Through analysing these documents, it is able to examine the linguistic features of toponymic changes while reasoning about geographical named sources and administrative districts as well as obtaining primary data. This article aims to preliminarily analyze these documents for encouraging academic studies which haven't been investigated sufficiently since they was introduced into the academic world. Noticing the toponymic values of these documents, I reexamined the bibliography and composing contents centering around the volume of Chungcheongbuk-do province in these documents. Consequently, I pointed out the possibility of regional differences of compilation times and mistakes in the contents of these documents. In addition to that, I proposed the toponymic values, referring to the transcription changes of village toponyms and the tendencies of loan transcription.

There are lots of examples for naming railway lines and stations in Korea. In general, we can specify some type of principles for making names at the railway lines. The first, rail line name made some decision considering the origin and destination name of city or region. The second type of a decision making is the location or service areas of that railway line or station. And other one is about the destination city or region of that corridor line. In this paper, we classified the name of the railway line according to above three types of decision principles, and then suggested the guideline and future directions preventing any confusion to make a new railway line name afterwards.

As the spirit of reconciliation between the two Koreas ripens, the integration of mineral names is required in preparing the reunification between the South and North Koreas. Currently, mineral names in Korean do not adopt the guideline for romanization of Korean that was proposed by the National Institute of the Korean Language (NIKL), and different names are often used for an identical mineral species. Here, for mineral names in Korean, we suggest using (1) the suffix, "$s{\breve{o}}k$", both for metallic and non-metallic minerals, (2) names in the NIKL example-list if available, (3) the suffix "$s{\breve{o}}k$" for minerals whose names are based on the names of persons or localities.

An analog implementation of space vector PWM is proposed in this paper. It is shown that a space vector PWM can be implemented by adding a zero sequency voltage to reference voltage of triangle comparison PWM. The proposed scheme is implemented by six diodes and, an operational amplifier circuit and, a few resistors.

This study examined the potential mediating mechanisms underlying the association between peer victimization and school adjustment. 521 children in the fifth and sixth grades were recruited from primary schools in Korea. Peer nomination and self-reports were used to measure peer victimization, cognitive representations, and school avoidance. Academic achievement records were obtained from official school records. The findings indicated that peer victimization contributed to school avoidance and academic achievement by different pathways. The association between peer victimization and school avoidance was indirectly mediated by perceptions of the self and peers. In contrast, peer victimization was directly associated with academic achievement.
