Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships between stigma, family support, and quality of life in tuberculosis patients. Methods: The participants were 122 who completed a questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, and ANOVA. Results: The score of stigma I(community perspectives) was $18.67{\pm}7.48$ and the score of stigma II(patients perspectives) was $14.84{\pm}6.93$. The score of those with family support was $30.81{\pm}4.16$. The score of QOL was $102.22{\pm}13.72$. The findings showed significant positive relationships between stigma I and stigma II and between family support and QOL(r = .753, p < .001; r = .314, p < .001, respectively) and negative relationship between stigma II and QOL(r = -.250, p = .005). Conclusion: Further studies are needed to develop and evaluate the nursing interventions to support patients with tuberculosis, reducing their level of stigma and improving their quality of life.

This research suggested the traffic signal timing calculation model for signal intersections based on sectional travel time. A detection system that collects sectional travel time data such as Urban Transport Information System(UTIS) is applied. This research developed the model to calculate saturation flow rate and demand volume from travel time information using a deterministic delay model. Moreover, this model could determine the traffic signal timings to minimize a delay based on Webster model using traffic demand volume. In micro simulation analysis using VISSIM and its API ComInterface, it checked the saturation conditions and determined the traffic signal timings to minimize the intersection delay. Recently, sectional vehicle detection systems are being installed in various projects, such as Urban Transportation Information System(UTIS) and Advanced Transportation Management System(ATMS) in Korea. This research has important contribution to apply the traffic information system to traffic signal operation sector.

Action learning is a teaching method that is taught through the process of finding real problems and finding solutions. The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of action learning for the college course 'media education for children' which was offered by the Department of Child Psychology and Education at S university in Seoul. According to the process of action learning suggested by Marquardt(2000), college students developed the problem of children's news literacy education and set the purpose, goal and contents of news literacy and developed teaching and learning method for the 6th grade elementary students and applied it to the education field. The college students' evaluation about the action learning lesson were collected by questionnaire and verbal. They found that active and voluntary problem-solving and field application through action learning helped to achieve the goals of the children's media education class. Finally, the importance of close cooperation with the educational field and of appropriate feedback were discussed as a necessary condition of action learning teaching method.

By comparing and evaluating the neutron dose when running cyclotron in fixed type measuring machine and portable type measuring machine, we performed this study to see if there is any difference between the doses in both measuring devices. We performed correction 3 times for the portable type during the experiment. We measured the values 12 times for each correction, so total 36 times by using the fixed type and portable type once every 2 weeks from June 2012 to February 2014. The statistics for the portable type and fixed type for each experiment showed 0.186, 0.511, and 0.057, which are not statistically significant. Therefore, we have come to the conclusion that unless there is deviation based on the correction period of the portable type, correction of fixed type wouldn't be necessary. Also, reduction of social costs may be achieved if we install an alarm meter, which is relatively low priced compared to the high cost neutron measuring machine, when detecting higher level than the interested standard level.

The traffic in research network for the new structure of the network and new service research has the various properties. From the perspective of a specific traffic point of view, transmission of traffic with different requirements using a single routing protocol is an obstacle to satisfy requirements. In this study, we classify the properties of the traffic into two types. We propose the way that we can get the overall optimization effect, the experiment proves it by providing independent multiple forwarding path by applying optimized algorithm by types. In order to distinguish each type of traffic we use the ports on the switch and in order to implement independent path we apply OpenFlow system. In other words, we present the measure that can be implemented to improve the satisfaction of the traffic by making multiple paths by OpenFlow controller according to the type of traffic and by enforcing in Forwarder.

Recently, cache sharing methods have been studied in order to effectively reply to user requests in mobile P2P networks. In this paper, we propose a cache sharing scheme based on a cluster considering the peer connectivity in mobile P2P networks. The proposed scheme shares caches by making a cluster that consists of peers preserving the connectivity among them for a long time. The proposed scheme reduces data duplication to efficiently use the cache space in a cluster. The cache space is divided into two parts with a data cache and a temporary cache for a cache space. It is possible to reduce the delay time when the cluster topology is changed or the cache data is replaced utilizing a temporary cache. The proposed scheme checks the caches of peers in a route to a cluster header and the caches of one-hop peers in order to reduce the communication cost. It is shown through performance evaluation that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing schemes.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of horseback riding simulation training(HRST) on gross motor function of children with cerebral palsy. Twenty-four children with cerebral palsy participated were divided into two groups randomly. Control group and experimental group both received 30 minutes of regular neuro-rehab exercises for three times a week per twelve weeks, but experimental group received additional 15 minutes of the HRST. Gross Motor Function Measure(GMFM) was used to evaluate the changes before and after HRST. Normalized GMFM scores were compared using Mann-Whitney U test, statistical significance was set at a=.05. The results were as followings: First, in each compared before and after the experiment, the control group showed significantly increased GMFM score in dimensions A and B. The experimental group showed significant increasing in all dimensions of GMFM test. Second, the experimental group showed significant differences comparing to control group in dimensions C, D and E of GMFM test. Consequently, HRST should be considered as a therapeutic method for physical therapy for the children with cerebral palsy to improve the functional movements.
