Whether respiratory muscle training is of benefit to the singing students is controversial. The purpose of the study is to investigate pulmonary function and the maximal inspiratory(MIP) and expiratory pressure(MET), and maximum phonation time in five female singing students before and after the specially programmed respiratory muscle training during 2 months. All singing students had average 4.8 years of formal classical voice training. Respiratory muscle training machine (Ultrabreath) was used to train respiratory muscle. Pulmonary function test data on simple pulmonary function, flow volume curve, static lung volumes are obtained from Vmax 6200. The MIP and MEP were measured using Spirovis, and the MPT were measured using hand-held stopwatch. Any pulmonary function test variables are not changed after respiratory muscle training. However, MIP and MEP were significantly increased between before and after respiratory muscle training. MPT increased significantly after training, compared to the pre-trained. MIP, MEP, and MPT after training in female singing students were 26%, 25% and 33% higher than those before training. The result indicated that the specially programmed respiratory muscle training is beneficial to improve respiratory muscle strength and vocal function without an increment in pulmonary function.

본 연구에서는 남자대학생 80명을 대상으로 총 식이섬유 및 조섬유와 영양소 섭취상태를 비교 분석하였다. 남자대학생들의 평균 총 식이섬유 섭취량은 $20.54\pm5.82g으로$ 외국의 잠정적 권장량의 범위(20~30g)에는 들었으나 권장량의 하한치를 약간 상회하는데 그쳤다. 조섬유의 1일 평균 섭취량은 $8.43\pm5.56g으로$ 1일 식이섬유 섭취량의 약 41%에 해당하였으며 그 외 열량 및 다른 영양소의 평균 섭취량은 한국인 영양권장량과 비슷하거나 다소 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 총 식이섬유 섭취량과 에너지 및 단백질, 당질, 그리고 조섬유의 섭취량 간에는 유의적인 상관관계를 보였으며, 당질이 가장 높은 상관계수(r=0.7232, p<0.001)를 보였다. 또한 조사 대학생들의 총 식이섬유 섭취량과 식품군별 섭취량과의 상관관계수를 보인 것은 채소류 (r=0.6548, p<0.001)였으며 그 다음은 곡류(0.5913, p<0.001)였으며 그 다음은 곡류(0.5913, p<0.001), 해조류(0.3300, p<0.01)였다. 조사 대학생들의 식이섬유 섭취량 중 총식이섬유 급원으로 가장 많이 섭취한 식품은 쌀과 김치였으며, 각각 총 식이섬유 섭취량의 11.98%와 7.64%에 기여하였다. 그 외 학생들이 많이 섭취한 라면, 고춧가루, 냉면, 빵, 콩나물, 밀가루, 깍두기, 무 등이 주요한 식이섬유 급원으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 남자대학생들의 식이섬유 섭취량은 외국의 잠정적 권장량의 범위(20~30g)에 속하였으나 충분한 양을 섭취하고 있는 것은 아니었으며, 오히려 경제수준의 향상으로 인한 식습관의 변화에 민감하게 반응하는 젊은 세대들인 조사대학생들의 장래 식이섬유 소비량은 더욱 감소할 것으로 추정된다. 그러므로 식이섬유 급원식품의 섭취를 증가시키는 방안이 모색될 필요가 있다. 따라서 성인기에 식이섬유 부족으로 나타나는 각종 질병의 위험을 예방하기 위해 정백비 위주의 식사를 지양하고 총 식이섬유 함량이 높은 해조류의 섭취를 널리 교육시키는 것이 바람직할 것으로 사료된다. 또한 보다 광범위하고 체계적인 대상자 선정을 통하여 식이섭취조사가 이루어져 식이섬유 섭취패턴을 연구할 필요가 있다.

The purpose of this study is to obtain basic data to be used in social welfare intervention for relieving psychological burdens caused by job stress in the eco-boomer generation that will be the center of Korean society in future, by estimating job stress change trajectories of the eco-boomer generation in the convergence era, figuring out predicting factors and examining job stress factors that individuals experience, in accordance with the degree of job stress and the changes. This is a longitudinal study using secondary data and for analysis, the Latent Growth Model(LGM) was applied to the 1st year to the 7th year Korean Welfare Panel Data. Self-esteem was one of job stress predicting factors of the eco-boomer generation. Since most of eco-boomers were students in the early measurement period, the level of job stress was low, but over time, the burden of job increased by gradation. This study has significance by providing an empirical basis for predicting factors of job stress changes of the eco-boomer generation to understand job stress in the eco-boomer generation.

In this study, we propose a method for analyzing students' understanding of probability and statistics in small lectures at universities. A computer-based test for probability and statistics was performed on 95 science and engineering college students. After dividing the students' responses into 7 clusters using the Robust PCA and the Gaussian mixture model, the achievement of each subject was analyzed for each cluster. High-ranking clusters generally showed high achievement on most topics except for statistical estimation, and low-achieving clusters showed strengths and weaknesses on different topics. Compared to the widely used PCA-based dimension reduction followed by clustering analysis, the proposed method showed each group's characteristics more clearly. The characteristics of each cluster can be used to develop an individualized learning strategy.

As the service of mobile internet has been expended, student users are increase. The computers have been widely used in a education field as the teaching tool by improvement of the multimedia contents processing and user interface. The English learning using the computers in the restricted education environment provides motivations and effective learning to learners, but still have some problem such as teaching and evaluating without consideration for differences of individual levels. In order to solve the problems and take the advantages, we propose the intelligent tutoring system for english learning with mobile technology. Overcoming limitations of the mobile environment and using proper treacher's roles,. We have applied the conventional estimation method of the intellectual learner level for students. Also, we have proposed the diagnostic function in order to determine the method of teaching-learing and item disposition that each leaner prefers. Then we have designed and implemented the expert module, providing the feedback for teaching, of the intelligent turoring system for mobile english learning. This system will be able to support the interaction between teachers and students and replace some roles of teacher in the mobile english learning.

The Ministry of Education of Korea announced the university structural reform plans which reduces 160,000 of the university entrance quota during 10 years from January 2014. Because the reduction plans of entrance quota influence regional economy as well as students and universities, naive evidence of the Ministry of Education of Korea is disappointed. In this research, we forecast the total number of the university entrance exam candidate by 2032 including not only third grade high school students but also repeaters according to the 16 metropolises and provinces in Korea. We also forecast the regional university recruiting rate using the forecasts of the total number of the university entrance exam candidates. However, we can not make more realistic results because we can not apply the inter-regional movement of students to the forecast. In order to handle this limitation, we first estimated the rank of the whole 7,277 departments of all universities in Korea and assigned the quotas according to the estimated rank for each departments and then we calculated the local university recruiting rate. The estimated the university recruiting rates of 16 metropolises and provinces can provide more noticeable results of characteristics and problems than that of nationwide.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a water fluoridation program (WFP) on prevention of dental caries in Gimhae City, Korea, with reference to the results of 2012 Korean National Oral Health Survey (KNOHS). In WFP population, 972 subjects including 8-, 10- and 12-year-old children in Gimhae City were examined in 2009. The WFP in Gimhae city has been implemented since 1999. 1872 subjects in non-fluoridated small and medium sized cities similar to Gimhae city were selected from 2012 KNOHS data as the control population. Two dentists who received training in KNOHS with an inter-examiner-agreement examined oral health status of all subjects. To assess the effects of WFP on dental caries, caries preventive fraction was estimated by assessing the differences of decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index and decayed, missing, and filled surfaces (DMFS) index, DMFS in pit and fissures and smooth surfaces between WFP population and the control. Univariate analysis of variance adjusted for gender and number of fissure-sealed teeth or surfaces was conducted. DMFT of 12-year-old subjects (n=354) in WFP and control population (n=1,518) were 1.60 and 2.12, respectively, with an estimated prevention effect of 24.7%. Caries preventive fraction on pit and fissure, and smooth surfaces of WFP subjects was estimated 27.5% and 24.0%, among subjects aged 12 years, respectively. WFP in Gimhae City, Korea reduced the prevalence of dental caries and is recommended as a public oral health program where a fluoride-containing toothpastes are commonly used.

According to analyses of high-resolution seismic profiles (air gun, sparker, and SBP) and a deep-drill core(YSDP 105) in the mid-eastern Yellow Sea, stratigraphic and geoacoustic models have been established and seismo-acoustic modeling has been fulfilled using ray tracing of finite element method. Stratigraphic model reflects seismo-, litho-, and chrono-stratigraphic sequences formed under a significant influence of Quaternary glacio-eustatic sea-level fluctuations. Each sequence consists of terrestrial to very-shallow-marine coarse-grained lowstand systems tract and tidal fine-grained transgressive to highstand systems tract. Based on mean grain-size data (121 samples) of the drill core, bulk density and P-wave velocity of depositional units have been inferred and extrapolated down to a depth of the recovery using the Hamilton's regression equations. As goo-acoustic parameters, the 121 pairs of bulk density and P-wave velocity have been averaged on each unit of the stratigraphic model. As a result of computer ray-tracing simulation of the subsurface strata, we have found that there are complex ray paths and many acoustic-shadow zones owing to the presence of irregular layer boundaries and low-velocity layers.
