The purpose of this study is to apply a probation and tea culture therapy convergence program developed for the self-esteem improvement and recidivism prevention of sex offenders supervised by GPS electronic monitoring(wearing electronic anklet). After applying the tea culture therapy program, this study examines the effect of the program on the self-esteem improvement of sex offenders with electronic anklet. This study employs an integrative approach of qualitative and quantitative methods. It was shown from the qualitative analysis that the participants have considerably more positive attitudes, active participation, seriousness in interpersonal relationship, anger management, and sympathy after the program. The results from quantitative analysis indicate that the self-esteem of participants are significantly improved.

This study was designed to investigate the current state of lens wearing and care, and to investigate eye discomfort according to the care method. Data of 209 female college students wearing lenses for more than 1 year were analyzed using the SPSS / WIN 22.0 program. 40.2% of female students wear lenses every day and 97.1% wear all day. However, only 45.4% of students washed it daily, and only 17.7 % used protein remover during wash, which resulted in poor management. 98.1% of students complained of discomfort due to the lens, and the Ocular Surface Index (OSDI) scored 42.88 ± 15.25, which was classified as a severe dry eye and threatened eye health. Therefore, it is necessary to improve students' awareness of lens management, and periodical lens inspection and management education are needed.

We are investigated about the state of the working circumstances and infection blocking facility within Metropolitan, Chungcheong and Gyeongsang regions in Korea. The result is as follows. The HAV vaccination rate is 35% and the HBV vaccination rate is 50% among the funeral directors. We expected that the infection risk of funeral directors was very high. Significantly, tuberculosis prevalence rate of funeral director was four times as high as the public. The wear rate of gown, mask, gloves showed relatively high than the others. The wear rate of individual protective equipments has decreased with work experience. The funeral directors have shown that there is difficult to get safe protection from infection. The personal hygiene of funeral directors and the infection blocking equipment should be strengthened institutionally. We are thought to recommend institutional support about infection management, individual protective equipment, vaccination of funeral director and guideline to avoid reversion to previous habitual behavior.

Purpose: The purpose of this research was to see how wearing either a SCL or a C-SCL effected the dryness of a person's eye depending on how long they wear either type of lens. Methods: This study was carried out on 52 subjects (104 eyes) who were all in their twenties and had previously experienced wearing contact lenses. All of these subjects were required to wear either a SCL or a C-SCL, which were made out of the same material, for three months. Contents such as the McMonnies Questionnaire survey, the blinking rate per min. and the Noninvasive tear break-up time test (NIBUT) were later conducted on the subjects for this study. Results: According to the results of the McMonnies Questionnaire, it was concluded that the longer the subject wore the SCL and C-SCL, the value of the measurements gradually increased. On the other hand, the results from the NIBUT concluded that the longer the subject wore the SCL, the value of the measurements eventually decreased. However, according to the measurements of the blink rate test, it was concluded that neither results had a significant change. Conclusions: It was concluded that long-term wearing of SCL and C-SCL could be the cause of the induction and progression of dry eyes.

본 연구는 어업에 종사하는 어업인을 대상으로 작업복 착용실태와 불편사항 및 문제점, 작업복에서 요구되는 기능 등을 알아보고 이를 통해 어업에 적합하고 작업 효율성을 높일 수 있는 기능적 작업복 개발에 필요한 요구사항을 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구는 전남지역의 어업인 124명을 대상으로 하였다. 분석은 SPSS 26.0 프로그램을 활용하였다. 본 연구에 참여한 어업인은 50대가 가장 많았고 남성이 약 85%이며, 근무경력은 10년 이상 20년 미만이 많았다. 작업복은 상하 분리형을 좋아하며, 방수성을 가장 중요하게 생각하였다. 착용 작업복에 대한 만족도는 땀투과성을 제외한 모든 항목에서 보통으로 평가되었다. 선호하는 색상은 무채색이 가장 많고 상하 분리형 스타일과 지퍼 여밈을 좋아하였다. 연령에 따라 작업복 구입 시 고려사항에 유의미한 차이를 나타내 30대 이하와 40대는 활동성을, 50대는 내구성을, 60대는 방수성을 가장 중요하게 생각하였다. 연령에 따른 작업복 만족도는 활동성, 압박감, 탈착성, 맞음새, 두께감, 기능성, 보온성, 옷의 무게감 등에서 유의미한 차이를 나타냈다. 본 연구를 바탕으로 하여 실용적이고 기능적인 어업용 작업복 개발이 이루어져야 할 것으로 생각된다.

This study was conducted to investigate the immediate effects of abdominal pressure blet on limited of stability and gait parameter in patients after stroke. Thirty stroke patients were recruited to measured pre and post wearing the abdominal pressure belt. The assessment measured limited of stability and spatiotemporal gait parameter. This study result were significantly increase in paretic side area, non-paretic side area, forward side area, backward side area (p<.05) and cadence, gait velocity, stride length (p<.05). This study found that abdominal pressure belt had an immediate effect on improving balance and gait function in stroke patients. Future studies require studies of efficient abdominal pressure levels and intervention periods to improve the balance and walking function of stroke patient.

This study conducted frequency analysis for male and female patients aged 60 and over from the results of analyzing improvement strategies for inconvenience due to wearing alopecia wigs. When the patoent started perceive their depilatory diseases was right after treatment of anticancer drugs or radiotherapy, and they were found to suffer from inconveniences of being dried, etc. After treatment of chemotherapy, as for the falling-out parts, eyebrows were found to be the highest 52.1%, and pubic hair 38%, axilla hair 29% in that order. And the inconvenience level of wearing wigs among the patients with the different background of education indicates that the professions of the patients affect the ease of use. It is presumed that the easiness in use which the college graduates, high school graduates, and postgraduates showed is attributable to the age difference. to improve the inconveniences from cancer patients wearing wigs, scape troubles and close adhesion are constantly needed.

In this paper we propose wear-UCAM, which is a toolkit for context-aware application model in wearable computing. As the rapid developments of mobile technologies and relevant technologies, the interests in wearable computer also become indispensible in both academic and industrial fields. However, there are few research activities on the application framework or toolkit for wearable computing. Hence, we suggest wear-UCAM as the development toolkit for wearable computing applications, where we focus on how to collect relevant user context, manage it, and provide services based on the recognized context. The proposed wear-UCAM includes the abstraction of context processing as well as independence among sensors and services with other components. For the sake of rapid prototyping of the proposed toolkit, we utilize PDA with wireless LAN as a wearable computer. The detail explanation of the implementation and its discussion are presented in this paper.

The present study investigated the effects of the moment arm length on balance and walking when carrying a backpack. In total, 30 normal adults without orthopedic and neurological injuries were assessed. For each subject, balance and gait were measured under three conditions: 1) the no backpack condition, 2) the general backpack condition, and 3) the decreased length of moment arm backpack condition. There were significant differences in the center of the pressure area and velocity between the three conditions, whereas there was no significant difference in the center of the pressure area and velocity according to the moment arm length. There were significant differences in double limb support time and walking velocity under the three conditions, and there was a significant difference only in double limb support time according to the moment arm length. The results of the present study showed that a change in the length of the moment arm can be helpful for walking when carrying a backpack.

We have developed and evaluated a smart clothing system for the measurement of body composition in real time. Two kinds of experimental clothes were developed in this study to investigate the effects of textile electrodes on the measurements. As long as the wearer maintained same posture, the magnitudes of impedance was measured identically even though he got into the clothing again. Moreover we found the clothing could measure the impedance of each body segment.
