동일한 신기술 제품의 수요는 각 국가가 어떠한 정책과 시장요인 등을 가지고 있느냐에 따라서 제품의 수요가 확산되어 지는 속도는 임의의 한 국가에 있어서 다른 국가에 비하여 빠르거나 느릴 것으로 예상할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이동전화 가입자를 대상으로 한국과 일본의 경우에 로지스틱 모형을 적합시킨 후 확산계수를 이용하여 어느 국가의 확산속도가 빠른지 검증하여 보았다. 여기에서 사용한 검정방법은 두 확산계수의 비에 대한 검정방법으로써 정규근사이론을 적용하였다. 그 결과 한국의 경우가 일본에 비하여 3~4배 정도 빠른 것을 알 수 있었다. 단적으로 최근의 이동전화 보급률을 살펴보았을 때, 1999년 3월말 기준으로 한국은 보급율 36.4%, 일본은 37.6%에 이르고 있어 한국의 이동전화 보급률이 일본과 비슷한 수준에 이른 것으로 나타났다. 이는 일본이 1979년에 상용서비스를 실시하고 한국이 1984년에 상용서비스를 실시하였지만 한국의 이동전화 가입 확산이 일본보다 어느 정도 빨랐음을 알 수 있는 사실이다.

The scope of this study is: (1) to review or summarize the theoretical explanations of diffusion; (2) to investigate the preservice teachers' understanding of diffusion utilizing the inquiry experiment of diffusion that was developed in this study. The data was collected through questionnaires given to 41 preservice teachers in 3 universities and interviews with 20 subjects from this population, who conducted the inquiry experiment. During the experiment, the data was collected from the students' reports and 3 small groups' audio/video recordings. To understand preservice teachers' conceptions, reports, audio/video recordings, questionnaires and interviews were analyzed and discussed with co-workers. The results follow: (1) The differences between effusion and diffusion as well as equal-pressure experiment and equal-flux one on diffusion were discussed; (2) Most preservice teachers understood effusion and diffusion connected to Graham's law of diffusion by rote and have misconceptions about the diffusion process; (3) They observed two kinds of diffusion experiments (equal-pressure and equal-flux) by inquiry experiment, but the majority of them failed to find conceptual differences between these experiments. After the inquiry experiment, about 40% of the samples modified their conceptions about diffusion.

지난 30년 동안 출산율은 대부분의 국가에서 감소했다. 그리고 전 세계 인구의 절반 이상은 대체수준 이하의 출산력 수준에 이르고 있다. 합계출산율이 1.5 혹은 그 이하의 출산력 수준을 보이는 국가의 수도 계속 증가하고 있다. 저출산의 확산과 함께 합계출산율 1.3 이하를 의미하는 초저출산 현상도 크게 주목받고 있다. 앞으로 저출산이 멈출 것인지, 출산율이 회복될 것인지 혹은 지속적으로 감소할 것인지에 대해서는 아무도 쉽게 답할 수 없다. 그럼에도 불구하고 최근 산업국가들이 보여주고 있는 저출산 기조는 상당 기간 지속될 것으로 보는 견해가 일반적이다. 이 글은 저출산 및 초저출산 현상을 어떻게 설명할 것인가에 대한 이론적 논의를 검토하고, 이러한 논의가 한국 사회의 인구학적 변화에 어떤 함의를 지니고 있는가를 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 우선 저출산을 설명하는데 유용한 이론적 틀을 검토하고자 한다. 이들은 제2차 인구변천이론, 합리적 선택이론, 위험이론, 양성평등 이론, 선호이론, 젠더와 시장이론 등을 포함한다. 이를 기반으로 본 연구는 한국사회의 저출산 현상을 설명하는 연구들의 특성과 시사점 등을 검토하고자 한다.

The purpose of the study is to identify the barriers to using mobile health applications based on the Diffusion of Innovations Theory. The study employed a purposive sampling to recruit college students who were non-adopters or rejecters. The study participants were a total of 44 students, who consist of 32 males and 12 females, and paper-based interviews were conducted. The findings of the study indicated that attributes such as relative advantages, complexity, trialability and observability were not considerable factors of impeding the adoption or continuous use of health applications, whereas relative disadvantages and compatibility were. The study suggests that health application developers and service providers minimize relative disadvantages and enhance compatibility of the innovation with consumers' life styles, rather than try to improve relative advantages and complexity, to more effectively encourage non-adopters to try and maintain using the innovation.

The particle back transport velocity from the membrane surface were evaluated to determine the critical flux. Four kinds of back transport mechanisms were considered, i.e. back diffusion, shear induced migration, lateral migration, and interaction enhanced migration. The interaction enhanced migration caused by electrostatic repulsion between particles and membrane surface was found to be the most important mechanism of particle back transport for the charged particles of 0.1 ~10${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ diameter with 20 to 40 mV of zeta potential. Hematite particles with different sizes were synthesized with ferric chloride (FeCl$_3$) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) at high temperature, and subsequently experimental critical fluxes for each sized particle were obtained. The experimental results were well coincident with the calculated critical fluxes based on back transport mechanisms.

Surface damage due to subsidence is an inevitable consequence of underground mining, which may be immediate or delayed for many years. The surface damage due to abandoned underground mine is observed to be two subsidence types such as simple sinkhole or trough formation to a large scale sliding of the ground from with in the subsided area. An evaluation of the risk of a subsidence occurrence is vital in the areas affected by mining subsidence. For a subsidence prediction or a risk evaluation, there has been used various methods using empirical models, profile functions, influence functions and numerical models. In this study, a simple but efficient evaluation method of subsidence hazard is suggested, which is based on a diffusion theory and uses just information about geometry of caving and topography. The diffusion model has an analogous relationship with granular model which can explain a mechanism of subsidence. The diffusion model is applied for the evaluation of subsidence hazard in abandoned metal and coal mines. The model is found to be a simple but efficient tool because it needs information of geometry of caving and gangway and the topography.

Despite the importance of the supply chain risk due to the negative word-of-mouth (NWOM) in social media, related research is insufficient. Thus, this study analyzes how the NWOM of the product is distributed through social media and the characteristics of the distributor based on social exchange theory. For this purpose, we collected information on car recalls from four companies using Twitter from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Based on the Seed Tweet, a Re-Tweet (RT) network was constructed to examine the distribution and spread of NWOM, and regression analysis was performed to test the hypothesis. As a result, it was confirmed that NWOM is a small world network structure that spreads around hub users connected to many users. Moreover, it was found that the more interactive and reciprocal relations the first distributor has, the greater the speed and scale of distribution of NWOM.
