The purpose of this study is to identify users behavioral characteristics for using the online catalog opened in May 1996 at Duksung Women's University Library. 278 student users were surveyed from October 4th to 8th in 1996. Major findings are as follows. 1. Most users$(87.4\%)$ prefer the online catalog to the card catalog and regard the online catalog easy to use$(89.6\%)$ 2. $(65.8\%)$ of users are active users who frequently use the online catalog at least 10 times or more per semester. 3. $10.4\%$ of users feel the online catalog difficult because they do not know how to use it. 4. Most users prefer the menu search mode among menu, command and fill-in-blank search modes offered by DISCOVER. The most preferred access points are the title for known-item search and subject headings for subject search. 5. User's attitude toward the online catalog is very favorable$(83.5\%)$, however, the search success rate is rather low $(77.0\%)$ compared to that of the card catalog $(87.0\%)$ 6. The title and author are regarded easy to use among access points offered by DISCOVER. Classification numbers and call numbers are the least easy access points to use. 7. Since users show lack of knowledge of how to use the online catalog, education and training programs on the online catalog use for users are needed. 8. Users showed different search patterns for pursuing different search goals. The most preferred access points are the title for known-item search and subject headings for subject search. These search behaviors are different from those in using the card for both the known-item search and subject search was the title.

다양해지는 소비자들의 패션에 대한 개성적 표현 욕구에 따라 우리나라 미용산업은 헤어, 메이크업과 피부미용, 네일케어 분야로 전문화.세분화되면서 토탈 패션산업의 주요영역으로 성장하고 있다. 이러 한 토탈 패션의 등장으로 미용서비스에 대한 수요증가로 양적으로는 상당히 그 규모가 증가했음에도 불구하고, 서버스 품질에 대해서는 고객들에게 확실한 신뢰를 주지 못하고 있다. 이는 국내 미용업계가 미용서비스 제공자의 관점에서 일방적인 서비스를 창출하여 왔고, 고객이 바라는 서비스의 내용과 품질을 제대로 파악하지 못하고 있다는 사실을 의미하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구는 미용실의 서비스품질의 구성 요인을 확인하고. 미용실의 서비스품질과 소비자 만 족과의 관계를 알아보는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위한 본 연구의 연구문제는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 미용실의 서비스 품질을 결정하는 요인에는 어떠한 것이 있는가\ulcorner 둘째, 미용실의 서비스 품질 중 소비자 만족과 관련하여 상대적으로 중요한 서비스 품질 결정요인은 무엇인가\ulcorner 본 연구를 위한 예비조사에서는 개방형 질문(open-ended question)을 실시하였다. 예비조사결과 프랜차이즈 미용실, 시내중심가 미용실 그리고 집.직장 근처 미용실의 3가지 유형의 미용실은 그 규모나 소비 자 인식이 상이하여 미용실의 서비스품질 차원을 연구하는데 유용한 것으로 나타났다. 본조사에서는 설문지법을 이용하였으며, 그 대상은 서울 지역의 3가지 유형의 미용실을 이용하는 고객들중 2 20-30대의 주요 고객층으로 정하였고 편의 표집하였다. 분석방법으로는 신뢰도 검증을 위해서는 Cronbach's 외 alpha값을 활용하였고, 미용실의 서비스품질 차원의 개념 타당성을 알아보기 위하여 LISREL을 이용한 확인 적 요인분석(confirmatory factor analysis)을 실시하였다. 또한 미용실의 유형에 따른 서비스 품질의 차이를 알아보기 위해서 일원변량분석(one-way ANDV A)을 실시하였으며, 서비스품질 속성들 중 소비자 만족을 결정하는 요인들을 알아보기 위해서 다중 회귀분석(multiple regression analysis)을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 결과들을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 미용실의 서비스 품질을 결정하는 요인으로 는 물리적 서비스(유형성, 접근성, 청결성), 판매원 관련 서비스(감정배려, 능력), 정책관련 서비스(점포운영, 명성, 신용카드) , 미용기술관련 서비스로 나타났다. 둘째, 미용실의 서비스 품질을 결정하는 요인들에 있어서 점포 유형간의 차이를 분석한 결과 전체적으로 응답자들은 프랜차이즈 미용실의 서버스 품질에 가장 만족했으며, 시내중심가 미용실과 집근처 미용 실 순으로 나타났다. 셋째, 미용실의 소비자 만족을 예측하는데 유의한 서비스 품질 결정 요일을 살펴보면, 프랜차이즈 미용 실은 청결성($\beta$ =.30), 감정배려($\beta$ =.54), 명성($\beta$ =.60), 미용기술관련 서비스 차원($\beta$ =.68)이 결정 요인으로 나타났다. 시내중심가 미용실은 청결성($\beta$ =.39), 직원의 능력($\beta$ =.49), 명성($\beta$ =.59), 미용기술관련 서비스 차원($\beta$ =.68)가 서비스 결정 요인이었고, 집근처 미용실은 청결성($\beta$ =.27), 감정배려 ($\beta$ =.57), 명성($\beta$ =.73), 미용기술관련 서비스 차원 ($\beta$ =.60)으로 나타났다. 이것으로 미용실의 소비자 만족을 예측하는데 유의한 서비스 품질 결정 요인은 청결성, 감정배려, 명성, 상품관련 서비스임을 알 수 있다. 본 연구의 방법론적 의미는 그 동안 개발된 소매점이나 패션점포의 서비스 품질에 대한 평기척도를 우리나라 미용실에 적용해 봄으로써 미용실의 특성인 유행성, 청결성, 미용실의 명성, 직원과의 친분 등을 포함한 미용실의 서비스 품질 차원과 그 신뢰성 과 유용성을 입증하였다는데 그 의미가 있다. 또한 본 연구의 결과는 미용실 서비스에 대한 소비자들의 인식과 각 미용실의 유형에 따른 소비자 만족을 예측하는데 중요한 서비스 품질 결정 요인들을 통해서 좀 더 나은 미용서비스를 정착시키는데 필요한 전략 을 수립할 수 있다는데 실질적 의미를 지닌다.

Purpose: Despite the well-known public health benefits of vaccination, increasing public concern about the safety of childhood vaccinations has led some parents to refuse or hesitate having their children immunized. The purpose of this study was to identify the subjectivity of parents toward refusal of childhood vaccination. Methods: Q-methodology, in which subjective viewpoints are explored and analyzed using a combination of quantitative and qualitative techniques, was used. Thirty-five participants were asked to rank 42 statements on diverse issues of childhood vaccination according to a continuous 9-point scale ranging from -4 for strongly disagree to +4 for strongly agree. Collected data was analyzed using the PC-QUANAL program. Results: The results revealed three discrete groups of parents in the refusal of children's immunization: type I, distrust; type II, concern about side effects, and type III, belief that vaccinations are unnecessary. Conclusion: Special nurse counselors who can provide correct information about vaccination based on the three types should be part of the government policy. Customized education programs to shift viewpoints should be also redeveloped according to the results in this study.

The aim of this study was to develop a reliable dietary questionnaire to assess human exposure to food-borne hazards. Eleven food-borne hazards were chosen as a priority control list through a literature review and advisory committees. The 11 food-borne hazards were phthalate, aflatoxin, bisphenol A, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, dioxin, polychlorinated biphenyls, mercury, lead, cadmium, arsenic, and acrylamide. The characteristics, exposure level, and paths of these hazards were reviewed, and questionnaire items were identified to assess human exposure from the literature. A questionnaire was developed for each selected food based on its characteristics. Based on the items in the individual questionnaires, a comprehensive questionnaire, which contained demographic characteristics, job information, socioeconomic factors, health related lifestyles, and dietary behaviors, was developed. A 99-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) to assess food-borne hazard exposure was also developed. The FFQ included frequency of food intake during the previous year, container type for purchasing and storing food, and cooking method. The questionnaire developed in this study could be applied to assess dietary factors during an exposure assessment of food-borne hazards in a large population. A validation study for the questionnaire is needed before applying it to surveys.

Purpose: This paper aims to examine the subjective structures and types of school age children's perception of death through an investigative study on their perception of death in order to provide a basic material for them to understand death, and develop and carry out an effective death education program. Methods: The study method used the Q Methodology which can investigate the subjective structures and types of school age children's perception of death. For Q-population, 20 school age children were used as subjects for neutral interviews and open surveys, and through documentary research, a total of 132 statements were collected, For Q-samples, 23 statements (Q-samples) were derived through a non-structural method. P-samples were 31 school age children (8-13 year olds), Q-sorting was carried out using Q-cards, and the collected data was analyzed using the PC QUANL program. Results: As a result of the study, children's perception of death was divided into five types. The first type was functional type, characterized by prominent subjective perception regarding the elements of death, such as non-reversibility, universality, non-functionality, and causality. The second was after-life type, characterized by a strong, focus on life after death in one's perception of death, and it included children with Christian background and those who had experienced death in their immediate family. The third was religious type, characterized by a strong belief in being able to still watch over one's family and friends after one's death, resulting in a positive faith in the after-life. The fourth was fearful type, characterized by a deeper fear of death in comparison to other types. The fifth was realistic type, characterized by a strong and positive assent to the perception of good death. Conclusion: The significance of the results of this paper's study to Nursing is as follows. In terms of understanding the subjectivity of school age children's perception of death in nursing practice, and understanding the compositional elements of death presented with strong emphasis in existing literature and studies, the results will expand these understandings and allow us to understand the level of perception in school age children regarding the definition of death, after-life, and good death, be utilized as useful material in developing an effective death education program for them according to their type characteristics, and become the fertilizer for enabling the children to live a proper life and preventing the tendency to make light of death that occur in adolescence and the spread of suicides. In terms of nursing theory, the description and examination of the subjective structures and the characteristics of the different, types of school age children's perception of death can be utilized as useful material for building a model of school age children's perception of death, and be further used for teaching respect for life. In terms of nursing research, the results can contribute to research describing the effects of nursing intervention strategies and developing tools for providing psychosocial nursing in terms of giving school age children a positive perception of death according to their types as well respect for life.
