Recently, some advanced statistical agencies have great concern on the quality of statistics which is defined in the context of being' fit for use'. In this paper, we present a concept for statistics quality control, elements of statistics quality, 8 procedures for sampling survey. We also suggest quality guidelines for sampling survey statistics.

The psychometric properties of a preliminary version of the Friendship Quality Scale(FQS) were examined with data collected from 300 3rd and 5th grade children. Scores on the Self-Perception Scale were obtained to examine convergent validity. The FQS assesses friendship quality in 9 sub-scales, inclusive of 6 friendship functions. Factor analysis confirmed the 9 sudscale structure of the FQS for 5th graders, but 4 friendship functions instead of 6 were a better fit for 3rd graders. Except for one, the sub-scales showed relatively high internal consistency ; Cronbach ${\alpha}$ ranged from .70 to .93. Convergent validity was indicated by correlations between self-perception and sex differences in friendship functions. Friendship functions and satisfaction were related to self-perceptions in social acceptance, behavior, and global self-worth. Girls reported higher friendship functions and satisfaction in friendship than boys.

Emotional intelligence is a relatively new concept and little research to date has examined age differences. In order to examine developmental patterns in emotional intelligence(En, the Emotional Intelligence Test for Children(EITC, Lee, 2003) was administered to 367 children, 4- to 8-years of age. Data were analyzed by Multivariate Analysis of Variance(MANOVA) and post hoc univariate analyses of variables. Results showed significant differences by age in total and sub-total scores of EITC. When the means of test scores were presented graphically as developmental curves, EI totals and sub-scores showed the increases in EI that occurred with increased maturity. Additional research is needed to verify developmental models of EI and to explore which factors have an effect on EI.

The purpose of this study was to develop the Resilience Scale for Children(RSC) and to evaluate its reliability and validity. The RSC was administered to 482 children in grades 4 through 6. Factor analysis of the 30 item scale demonstrated Cronbach's ${\alpha}=.89$ for internal consistency of total items. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis supported a five-factor structure. Retest stability was acceptable for the five-factors. Tests of the present scale for criterion-related validity compared favorably with Self-Perception Profile for Children (Lee, et al., 1992) and the Stress Coping Behavior Scale for Children (Kim and Kang, 2003) confirming its applicability to elementary school students for assessment of resilience.

Several clustering algorithms to analyze gene expression data and cluster validation techniques that assess the quality of their outcomes, have been suggested, but evaluations of these cluster validation techniques have seldom been implemented. In this paper we compared various cluster validity indices for simulation data and real genomic data, and found that Dunn's index is more effective and robust through small simulations and with real gene expression data.

The purpose of this study was to develop ' the Behavior Problem Scale for Children and Adolescence' The 518 subjects were selected from 5th and 6th grades of elementary schools and first and second grades of middle schools in Pusan. Statistics used for data analysis were χ2 cramer's V, factor analysis multi-regression Pearson's r, Cronbach's a. The major finding of this study were as follows 1) 80 items of the 159 item scale were acceptable through item discriminant method The discriminant coefficients of the items(Cramer's V) ranged from .48 to .81. 2) 6 factors(shyness aggression hyperactivity withdrawal anxious immature) extracted from factor analysis,. Multi-regression analysis conducted to reduce the length of scale have drawn 42 items for 'the Behavior Problem Scale Children and Adolescence' 3) Reliability coefficients(Cronbach's a) of this scale was 94.

The purpose of this study was to develop 「the Self-Esteem Inventory」(SEI). The 2,451 subjects were selected randomly from 4, 5 and 6th grades of elementary schools and the first and second grades of middle schools in the city to Taegu. Factor analysis, Pearson's r, Cramer's V, and Cronbach's αwere conducted for the statistical analysis. It was found that (1) Factor analysis showed that SEI consisted of 4 factors (global, social-peers, home-parents, and school-academics), (2) The discriminant coefficients of the items (Cramer's V)ranged from 0.25 to 0.71, (3) The reliability coefficients of the scale (Cronbach's α) ranged from 0.69 to 0.84, and (4) The correlation coeffcients of the SEI with RSES and CSEI ranged from 0.47 to 0.78.

The present study investigatesthe reliability and validity of the innovation leadership scale. Originally the seven factors with 25 items were developed through literature review. With a sample of 177 employees in a large company, the results of factor analyses showed that the five-factor model with 14 items had a better fit to the data than the seven-factor model. These five factors were innovativeness pursue, problem solving, vision presentation, risk-taking, and showing initiative. All of these factors were significantly related to various criteria such as identification with the group, attachment to the group, organizational commitment, and supervisor satisfaction, confirming criterion-related validity of the scale. Results of multiple regression analyses showedthat risk taking and showing initiative were more important predictors in explaining criteria. Finally, implications and limitations were discussed. The findings suggest that the key factors of innovation leadership were initiative and risk-taking.

RASTI와 $D_{50}$이 명료도와 상관이 높은 것은 사실이지만, 음질과는 상관이 없다. RASTI는 잔향과 잡음이 적으면 값이 높아지지만, 스피커 자체에서 재생되는 음질이 찌그러지거나 명료하지 않은 음질이 재생되어도 값은 변하지 않는다. $D_{50}$ 스피커에서 재생되는 음질과 관계없이 직접음 성분이 많으면 단지 값이 높아질 뿐이다. 그런데, RASTI와 $D_{50}$이 높으면 음질도 좋을 것이 라고 생각하는 경우가 많다. 따라서 스피커의 음향 특성에 따른 RASTI, $D_{50}$의 변화 측정 및 음질 선호도 평가를 실시하고, 재생 주파수 대역에 따른 RASTI, $D_{50}$의 변화 측정 및 음질 선호도 평가를 실시하므로써, 명료도 척도와 음질과의 상관을 고찰하였다.

2011년 IMA의 자료[1]에 의하면, 현재 251척의 부유식 생산설비가 운영되고 있으며, 이중 FPSO가 차지하는 비율은 64%에 이른다. 또한, 가장 각광을 받고 있는 부유식 생산설비의 유형인 FPSO는 현재 40여척을 건조 (New building) 및 개조(Conversion)를 하고 있다. 전체적인 FPSO의 개발 및 건조 프로젝트는 일반 선박 프로 젝트와는 다르게 환경적, 정치적, 상업적인 영향을 많이 받는다. 예를 들면, 같은 구역에 석유/가스 채굴을 위한 프로젝트를 승인받은 기업들은 각자의 기술력, 재정상태, 채굴구역의 정치적인 영향력에 따라서 프로젝트의 초기 개념설계부터 전혀 다른 방향으로 구축할 수 있다. 이러한 변수가 많은 프로젝트를 성공적으로 수행하기 위해서는 각 단계별 세부 계획도 동시에 이루어져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 세계적인 해양구조물의 대표 격인 FPSO의 특성을 보고하고 이와 관련되는 프로젝트의 다양한 수행 절차 및 시스템/장비에 대해 설명한다.
