본 연구는 커뮤니티 시설 상세 설계의 대상물에 대한 질적 특성을 파악하기 위하여 그 대상물의 이미지를 상징화하는 단계적 발전 과정을 거쳐 그 시설의 상세 설계적 언어를 형상화하는 방법을 제시하였다. 사례로 역사적, 문화적, 전이적 특성을 지닌 세 커뮤니티를 조사하여 디자인 언어와 상징화되는 이미지를 구명해 보면서 디자인 언어의 구성과 설계요소와의 관계 커뮤니티의 목표 등과 연관시켜 커뮤니티의 본질성을 추구하는 수단을 평가 분석하는 방법을 강구하고 커뮤니티 시설의 상세 설계 언어의 형상을 검토하는 방법을 통섭적으로 제시하였다. 설계 언어의 형상 분석의 수단을 구체화 하는 데는 시각적 형태, 설계 주제의 상황, 설계요소의 관계성, 설계요소의 위치와 구성 등과 연관된 문제이다. 본 연구는 상세설계 언어의 형상을 개발하는 시도로 네 가지 기본 전제를 세우고 그를 설명해 보았다. 본 연구는 커뮤니티 시설 특성의 상징화를 위한 설계언어연구 대상의 사례로 미국의 전통성이 강한 메사츄세츠주에서 역사적, 문화적, 전이적 특성을 각기 다르게 지니고 있는 콩코드(Concord), 렉싱톤(Lexington), 알링톤(Arlington) 등의 세 커뮤니티를 택하였다. 사례 커뮤니티 시설 특성의 상세 설계 언어의 형상을 도출하는 과정을 설명하고 시각적 노트와 디자인 의미와 그 상징성을 바탕으로 상징과 시각적 언어를 찾으면서 상세 요소의 디자인 언어를 비교하였다. 그를 바탕으로 디자인 언어와 의미 및 그에 대한 평가를 위하여 편익을 기초로 사회, 건강, 환경, 경제 등 네 가지로 세부 분류된 커뮤니티 시설을 검토하였다. 커뮤니티 시설 특성을 파악하는 기법 발굴 과정에서 시작된 시각적 형상으로부터 상징과 그 의미 등을 구명하면서 그를 정성화하기 위한 기준으로서 설계 언어, 상징적 언어, 커뮤니티, 자연적 심미성 등의 네 가지로 대표되는 평가 요소에 의하여 분석 평가 검토에 이르기까지 일련의 과정이 그 상세설계언어의 형상에 관하여 통섭적 접근이 이루어 졌다.

This study was carried out to investigate what kind of problems gender equality in Chinese married immigrant women have in marriage. We interviewed five Chinese marriage immigrant women married to Korean men for research. Using the case study method, which is a qualitative research method, five research participants analyzed gender equality awareness and gender equality conflict after migration. As a result, the marital conflicts, which are the difference of recognition of gender equality among married immigrant women, were different according to the family life culture of their home countries, the route of meeting with their husbands, and their understanding of Chinese culture. Nonetheless, most of the research participants showed that they accepted the Korean women's values in the form of conforming to the Korean patriarchal system while taking the inequality by attempting to assimilate positively in Korean society. And some of them resulted in the failure of the family because of the patriarchal values of the Korean husband. Based on the results of this study, we discussed the problems of gender equality in multicultural families in Korea and discussed ways to improve them.

We examine how combinations of key factors affecting healthcare user innovation vary by innovation stages from idea generation through R&D to commercialization and venturing using a fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis (fsQCA) of thirty Korean cases in the healthcare field. Our empirical analysis shows that well-functioning innovation network and easy resource acquisition facilitate ideation of radical user innovation. However, technological capability and governmental support are crucial to make a shift to R&D as well as commercialization stages. Differently, incremental user innovation depends heavily on technological capability of users. Our analysis can provide policy makers as well as corporate innovation mangers with a strategic framework for boosting user innovation along three stages.

This study conducted in-depth interviews of seven parents with autistic adults and analyzed them using qualitative case study methods in order to understand overall meaning of care experiences of parents with autistic adult children. Thus, four key topics which are 'experience of embracement', 'experience of anticipation', 'experience of despair', 'experience of resistance' were constructed. Under these key topics, 12 subcategories which are 'accepting reality', 'positive experience', 'gradual improvement', 'desire to provide better quality of life', 'expectation towards the society', 'strenuous lives', 'psychological exhaustion', 'predicted anxiety', 'defensive attitude', 'distrust of social welfare', 'confronting injustice', 'active behaviors' were constructed. According to the analysis, care experiences of parents with autistic adults are not segmentary, but they are intertwined which make them more dynamic. Thus, easing their despair, empowering positiveness to them, and assisting them to have healthy resistant voice are needed to support the parents with autistic adults. Based on the analysis, we suggest an intervention plan to support autistic adults and their parents.

Downsizing IS is rapidly emerging as one of new information systems of the 1990s that involve (1) the cost reduction, (2) the reduction of MIS staff, and (3) the transfer of IS functions to end-users. As downsizing is relatively new information systems, little is known about the causes, the process, or the consequences of downsizing. Case study was chosen as the research methodology of this study. The downsizing IS of Namsun Aluminum Co. was chosen for the exploratory case study. The detailed and qualitative analyses to Namsun were performed with the use of observation, participation, interview techniques. Consequently, the causes, the process, and the consequences of Namsun's downsizing were analyzed. As the main cause, downsizing was started with the purpose of cost reduction. The important consequences of downsizing are as follows ： (1) About 700 mi1lion won reduction in the cost of initially developing the downsizing was achieved. (2) Downsizing is performing Namsun's mission critical applications. (3) Namsun's downsizing could be considered to be SIS(strategic information systems).
