Different people buy the same or similar products for different reasons. Benefit segmentation attempts to understand these differences by grouping together people who assign a similar level of importance to the same attributes. We focused on identifying market segments for knit fabrics by comparing the relative attribute preference for knit fabrics according to segmented clusters, and testing to establish if there were significant differences between the preferences of clusters. Three consumer segments emerged, and there were three clusters with different ideal knit profiles: a preferred wool group, a preferred acrylic group, and a preferred long stitch length group. The preferred wool group and the preferred acrylic group rated the mixture ratio as the main attribute that determined their preference, followed by the stitch length. The preferred long stitch length group considered stitch length as being the most important attribute, followed by the mixture ratio. The difference in the preferences for the mixture ratio and stitch length of knit fabrics was the highest between the three clusters, The preferred wool group preferred a knit fabric that has a greater wool mixture ratio and a short stitch length, and the preferred acrylic group and long stitch length group preferred a knit fabric that had a higher acrylic mixture ratio and a short stitch length.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of structural properties of plain knit fabrics on the subjective textures and sensibilities of consumers. We investigated the relationship of subjective textures and sensibilities according to fiber contents of wool/rayon and stitch loop length. We made 20 plain knit fabrics, as specimens, with a combination of 5 kinds of fiber contents and 4 kinds of stitch loop length. A factor analysis showed that subjective textures are classified into 3 categories with $R^2=70.32\%$: 'surface-rough', 'drapable', 'bulky' and 'elastic' and subjective sensibilities into 3 categories with $R^2=68.12\%$: 'stable/neat', 'feminine/elegant' and 'natural/comfortable'. The fiber contents of wool/rayon had a positive and linear relation with 'surface-rough', but had a relatively non-linear one with 'bulky' and 'elastic' categories of textures, and 'feminine/elegant' of sensibilities. The stitch loop length had a linear influence on 'drapable' and 'stable/neat', but had a non-linear influence on other subjective textures and sensibilities.

Background: Tracheal deviations are encountered frequently in head and neck tumors especially in thyroid cancer. Dyspnea and stridor are symptom calling for surgery. The method of evaluation in tracheal deviation is not well established yet. This paper is aimed to suggest objective tools to evaluate tracheal deviation in relation to cervical vertebra. Material and Method: Ten cases of thyroid cancers were recruited retrospectively. Tracheal inner shadow and shape of cervical vertebra were reconstructed three dimensionally using 3D-doctor to compare position of trachea in relation to vertebral body. Extent of deviation was scored in relation to both lateral borders of vertebral body. Angles between trachea and spinous process were measured in axial CT and compared between study group and control group. Results: Deviation scores were statistically significant between study group (mean=1.1) and control group (mean=0) (p=0.0008). Deviation angles at maximal tumor size in study group (mean=160.3 Degrees) and deviation angles of control group (mean=177.1 Degrees) were statistically significant (p=0.0007). Angles at maximal deviation of three dimensional images ages in study group (mean=162.6 Degrees) and deviation angles of control group (mean=177.1 Degrees) were statistically significant (p=0.0089). Conclusion: Tracheal deviation can be evaluated using scoring of three dimensional images and measuring angle between trachea and vertebral spine.

The purpose of this study is to develop the relationship model among subjective texture and preference of weft knit according to fiber contents of wool/rayon and loop length by integrating previous research work. SPSS and SEM method using AMOS program were used to analyze data which used to correlation matrix to be standardized. The texture of weft knit were classified into 4 categories: irregularity, flexibility, bulkiness, extensibility. The fiber contents of wool/rayon had effect positively on irregularity, bulkiness and extensibility and that had little effect on preference. The loop length had effect positively on irregularity, flexibility and extensibility and that had effect negatively on preference. This measurement model will be input for testing causal research model that can explain how fiber contents of wool/rayon and loop length of weft knit influence on subjective texture.

가정간호사업 도입에 대한 대상자의 필요성에 대한 인식을 알아보고자, 1988년 7월 1일부터 동년 8월말까지 서울시내 5개 대학병원에서 퇴원하는 환자 390명과 환자 보호자 380명, 주민 780명, 총 1550명을 대상으로 조사한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. $81\%$의 대상자가 가정간호 사업 도입이 필요하다고 한 반면 $7.5\%$는 필요 없다고 하였으며, $11.5\%$는 잘 모르겠다고 하였다. 필요성 인식 율은 주민이 $83\%$, 환자보호자가 $79\%$, 환자가 $78\%$로서 세 집단 간에 유의한 차이 가 있었다. (P<.01). 인구학적 변수별로 보았을 때, 교육수준과 가정수입에 따라 인식 율에는 유의한 차이가 있어서 (P<.001, P<.01), 교육수준이 높을수록, 수입이 많을수록 높았다. 2. 필요성 인식 율은 가정간호사업 이용의사에 따라서도 유의한 차이가 있어서 (P<.001), 이용의사가 많은 군이 인식 율도 높았다. 3. 환자들의 필요성 인식 율은 퇴원시기에 대한 의견과 병원비 지출액에 따라 유의한 차이가 있어서 (P<.05, P<.02), 퇴원시기가 적절하다는 군이 부적절, 하다는 군보다, 또한 병원비 지출액이 적을수록 인식 율이 높았다. 진단명에 따라서는 피부 및 피하조직 진환$(100\%)$, 임신 및 출산에 관련된 합병증$(90\%)$, 신경 및 감각기계 질환$(85\%)$, 부상 및 중독$(83\%)$, 신생물$(79\%)$, 등에서 필요성 인식 율이 높았다. 4. 가정간호사업 이용에 대한 대상자의 의견을 $47.8\%$가 이용할 의사가 있었고, $49.9\%$는 상황에 따라 결정하겠다고 하였으며, $3.2\%$는 이용하지 않겠다고 응답하였다. 인구학적 변수별로 보았을 때, 연령별로는 노년층, 성별로는 남성이, 교육수준은 낮은 군이, 의료보험을 가진 군이 이용할 의사가 많았으며, 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. (P<.01, p<.001, p<01, p<.01). 5. 환자들의 가정간호사업 이용 의사는 퇴원시의 상태에 따라서 유의한 차이가 있어서 (P<.02), 상태 가 입원 시와 변화가 없거나 악화된 군이 이용할 의사가 많았다. 진단별로는 내분비계 질환$(63\%)$, 신생물$(57\%)$, 혈액 및 조혈기능 장애$(55\%)$, 부상 및 중독$(55\%)$, 등이 이용할 의사가 많았다. 6. 대상자들이 가정간호사업의 장점으로 생각하는 것은 환자의 심리적 안정$(66\%)$, 시간 절약$(57\%)$, 가족의 편이$(57\%)$, 환자 간호에 대해 배운다$(53\%)$, 질병 과정을 배운다$(51\%)$ 등이었다. 7. 대상자들이 가정간호사업의 단점으로 생각하는 것은 응급시에 대처하기가 어렵다$(49\%)$, 환자가 불안해 할 것이다$(41\%)$ 가정환경이 환장에게 부적합하다$(43\%)$ 등이었다. 8. 가정간호사업에서 수용할 수 있는 간호 업무로$50\%$ 이상의 대상자가 지정한 것은 활력징후측정, 경구 및 비경구 투약, 운동과 휴식지도, 개인 위생관리, 보건교육, 정신 심리 간호 등이었다. 9. 가정간호사업에 대한 지불방법은 $32.9\%$가 제공된 업무에 따라 지불해야 한다는 의견으로 가장 많았다.
