  • The purpose of this study is to develop a publicness evaluation index for indoor privately owned public spaces (POPS). In order to develop the index, 10 cases of indoor POPS in New York City were analyzed using Visibility Graph Analysis by evaluating its accessibility and visual openness. The results are as follows; (1) Accessibility and openness of indoor POPS were higher compared to other public spaces on the first floor. (2) Cases with high accessibility index installed a higher number of entrances. (3) Cases with high openness index were mostly composed of a glass wall. (4) The publicness index was high when the lobby and the indoor POPS are shared. (5) Atrium types were highly utilized and the evaluation index was also high whereas, linear types were less utilized and the evaluation index was lower.

  • Purpose: This study was to develop an effective evaluation tool for evaluation of hypertension prevention and management program(HPMP) in community health posts (CHPs). Method: Evaluation tool composed from the literature review, the field visiting, and the in-depth interviews with the community health practitioners. Result: The evaluation tool had four domains, each with different maximum points:, hypertension prevention (35), hypertension management (40), environment of the CHPs(10), and evaluation system of the HPMP(15). The first domain was hypertension prevention with sub-domains of health education, and early detection of patients with hypertension. The second domain was hypertension management with sub-domains of management of health records of patients, education and counseling, and treatment and follow-up of patients. The third domain was the environment of the CHPs with subdomains of accessibility of CHPs to residents, accessibility of general health data to the public, and availability of health information to the public by multimedia. The fourth domain was the evaluation system of the HPMP with the subdomains of planning of program, formative evaluation, process evaluation, and summative evaluation. Conclusion: The newly developed evaluation tool will contribute not only to plan and set goals for evaluation of HPMP in CHPs.

In addition. (2) contents of evaluation which are deemed important by the users and developers were compared and recommended as the detailed evaluation contents according to evaluation factors. The results of this study were as follows. 1. The evaluation factors for the fashion websites that provide Clothing and Ornament related information were selected as follows: contents of the information(11 contents of evaluation), ease of use(12), screen design(10), accessibility(9), sensitive enjoyment(4), scope of information use(3), purpose(1), and target user(1). As result of reliability analysis. Cronbach's a contents of the information (0.76), ease of use (0.77), screen design (0.85), accessibility (0.81), sensitive enjoyment (0.71), and scope of information use (0.52). 2. When the level of importance for the detailed evaluation contents was examined from the user and developer point of view, recency of information. rapid speed for the websites access. fast loading of webtext and fast transmission speed topped the list as first, second and third places.

  • Recently, consumer researchers have suggested that consumers evaluate brand by subjective memory-based-emotion which was formed by their experience. However, relatively little consumer research has been done to explore conditions under which memory-based-emotion is used in brand evaluation. Therefore, this study explored the conditions to facilitate usage of memory-based- emotion such as accessibility, representativeness, relevance of consumption goal, when consumers evaluate brand. In addition, we investigated the factors that influence responses of memory-based- emotion, such as similarity of encoding and retrieving condition and level of organization. The results of this study suggest that level of organization was positively related to accessibility and representativeness. But similarity of encoding and retrieving condition was not related to them. And accessibility, representativeness influence on use of memory-based-emotion in consumer brand evaluation. But relevance of consumption goal did not influence on use of memory-based-emotion in consumer brand evaluation.

  • The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accessibility of the Cakewalk SI-Drum for the screen reader users. An evaluation was performed by testing the accessibility of the [Virtual Instrument Editing] that is a part of MIDI Production of the NCS(National Competency Standards) by using the SI-Drum and the Sense Reader. The results of this study are as follows. The SI-Drum has almost no basic accessibility for the screen users to do an above task. But the screen reader users can perform the tasks by using Sense Reader's Mouse Pointer function and Position Memory function. To use SI-Drum more efficiently, SI-Drum's basic accessibility have to be provided fully. Several suggestions are proposed to develop a fully accessible SI-Drum for the screen users.

  • In the study, we introduce the trend in domestic and foreign web accessibility, as well as the legal system that ensures web accessibility. Based on Korean Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (KWCAG)1.0, we investigated the web content accessibility of 80 tertiary health-care hospitals and general hospitals in Korea. We evaluated accessibility by combining accessibility-based criteria (ABC) with usability-based criteria (UBC). ABC was limited to an alternative text for Guideline 1, using a small number of frames and keyboard accessibility for Guideline 2. UBC checked the voice service (TTS), resizing text, providing multi-lingual websites, and disclosing web accessibility policy. KADO-WAH2.0 was used for representing the compliance rate. The evaluation result was a considerable improvement from previous results, even though the rate of compliance with web accessibility was generally insufficient. There was a significant difference between those medical centers which did and did not comply with web accessibility. Incidentally, many hospitals were found to have attempted to confront and come to terms with web accessibility. In future, the following factors are advisable for medical centers with publicity or public interest: they must employ active and aggressive promotion of establishment of independent accessibility guidelines to secure web accessibility, they should effect an improvement of the realization of web accessibility, there can be constant education and promotion, and there can be an institutional supplementation, as well as others.

  • This study was conducted to evaluate the non-timber forest functions of the Research Forest area of Kangwon National University. In this study, forest recreation function was investigated through survey method answered by forest management experts. The evaluation factors for forest recreation function were separated into external and internal factors. Each factor was classified into intermediate element and detailed element. Therefore in this study, the evaluation factors of forest recreation function were divided into two groups which are the potential of external factors and the suitability of internal factors. Potential of the external factors were divided into accessibility, location, landscape and induction factors while the suitability of internal factor was divided into stand structure, forest structure and human impact. The priority of the potential of external factors was in order that location, accessibility, induction factors and landscape. The most important factors for the location, accessibility, induction and landscape factors are based on regional characteristics.
