Objectives: This study aimed to describe recent patterns in the types of statistical test used in original articles that were published in Journal of the Korean Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons. Materials and Methods: Thirty-six original articles published in the Journal in 2015 and 2016 were ascertained. The type of statistical test was identified by one researcher. Descriptive statistics, such as frequency, rank, and proportion, were calculated. Graphical statistics, such as a histogram, were constructed to reveal the overall utilization pattern of statistical test types. Results: Twenty-two types of statistical test were used. Statistical test type was not reported in four original articles and classified as unclear in 5%. The four most frequently used statistical tests constituted 47% of the total tests and these were the chi-square test, Student's t-test, Fisher's exact test, and Mann-Whitney test in descending order. Regression models, such as the Cox proportional hazard model and multiple logistic regression to adjust for potential confounding variables, were used in only 6% of the studies. Normality tests, including the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Levene test, Shapiro-Wilk test, and $Scheff{\acute{e}}^{\prime}s$ test, were used diversely but in only 10% of the studies. Conclusion: A total of 22 statistical tests were identified, with four tests occupying almost half of the results. Adoption of a nonparametric test is recommended when the status of normality is vague. Adjustment for confounding variables should be pursued using a multiple regression model when the number of potential confounding variables is numerous.

The purpose of this study is to identify the influecing factors on the user's satisfaction and continued usage intention in IPTV services. For this purpose, a research model and hypotheses are developed based on the relevant literature reviews. Data have been collected from 310 users who have used IPTV and the research hypotheses were tested by covariance structural model analysis. The results of this empirical study are summarized as follows. First, perceived enjoyment was confirmed to have a positive effect on user's satisfaction and continued usage intention, however, we found no evidence of a statistically significant relationship between perceived enjoyment and perceived usefulness. Second, perceived ease of use was found to positve influence perceived usefulness, however, we found no evidence of a statistically significant influece on user's satisfaction. Third, confirmation was found to positively influence satisfaction and continued usage intention. Fourth, perceived usefulness had a positive influence on continued usage intention, and both perceived usefulness and satisfaction had a positive influence on continued usage intention. Based on these findings, we suggested the implications and further research directions.

This study investigated a special class or Electronic Data Interchange(EDI) system. While it has been predicted that the use of EDI will have a significant impact on the competitive advantage of organization. very little is known about the successful construction of such system. A few studies done in this area have relied on anecdotal data on data based on a small number of case studies. The major objectives of the research are to identify the factors that facilitate the adoption and successful construction of an EDI system, and to evaluate the impact of the EDI system on competitive advantage of the organization. Based on the EDI literature. organizational performance is modeled to be affected by three independent variables: EDI system. communication. trust. The level of EDI system was used as control variable. The data used to test the model were collected in a mail survey from department store in Korea. The results indicate that organizational performance is affected by EDI system, communication. The paper concludes with a discussion of future directions for research in the area of test EDI models.

This paper explores the benefits provided by the adoption and implementation of electronic commerce in a particular SME-intensive productive environment: the geographical cluster. This study develops a conceptual framework that highlights the six types of benefits obtained by integrating online business with offline business. Using data from 73 traditional companies in Korean port clusters, factor analysis was used to figure out six benefits including sharing information, cost savings, value-added service, customer relationship, enhanced trust, and marketing efficiency. The six empirically derived critical benefit factors were then used to examine how they improve management performance of the traditional offline companies in the cluster measured by Balanced Scorecard(BSC). According to the results, we concluded that the offline firms in the cluster can take advantages of extending to online business.

현대의 기업조직들은 역동적 경영환경변화에 직면하고 있다. 이러한 변화에 적응하기 위한 수단으로서, 많은 기업들이 정보기술의 도입을 적극적으로 고려하고 있다. 1990년대 중반에 등장한 ERP(Enterprise Resource Planning: 전사적 자원관리)는 이러한 정보기술의 대표적인 것으로 통합된 데이터베이스에 기초하여 기업의 연계된 업무기능을 지원하는 시스템이다. ERP시스템은 효용 및 효과 대비면에서 많은 장점을 가지고 있기 때문에 현재 우리나라의 많은 기업들이 ERP시스템을 도입하고 있다. ERP에 대한 기존의 연구들은 주로 ERP 도입 성공요소에 관한 내용이 주류를 이룬다. 그러나 이러한 주요성공요소들은 주로 시스템 개발과정의 특성만을 포함하곤 주요성공요소를 몇 개의 범주로 묶어 제시하는데 그 초점을 두고 있기 때문에, 이들 주요성공요소 간에 존재하는 상호영향관계를 충분히 반영하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구의 목적은 ERP CSF(Critical Success Factor : 주요성공요소)간에 존재하는 상호영향관계, 그리고 그러한 영향관계가 전체 ERP 성과에 어떤 효과를 가져다 주는가에 대한 총체적인 상호작용에 관한 연구가 부족하기 때문에, 이를 분석하고자 했다. 이 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. ERP 주요성공요소 간에 존재하는 복잡한 상호영향관계를 실증분석을 통하여 측정하여 이들 간에 상호영향관계 및 선행관계가 있다는 것을 밝혀내었다. 다만, 일반적으로 BPR로 인하여 조직이 많이 변화하면 변화에 대한 사용자의 적응은 떨어질 것으로 생각되지만, 본 연구에서는 이들의 관계는 없는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 조직이 얼마나 많이 변화하였는가보다는 변화관리가 사용자가 적응하는데 더 많이 영향을 미친다고 나타나고 있다. 결국 BPR의 정도 또한 변화관리를 통해서는 사용자의 적응에 간접적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

The purpose of the present study was to assess food hygiene and safety knowledge, attitudes, and practices of food-service personnel in school food-service programs and to find factors affecting their knowledge, attitudes, and practices. A self-administered questionnaire was offered to a random sample of 40 kitchen employees in elementary schools in one region of Korea, with 37 completing the survey, a response rate of 92.5%. The survey was carried out over a two-month period (April-May, 2001). Knowledge score of the employees was high with a mean/standard deviation of 4.75/0.32 on a 5.0-point scale. They had significantly lower attitude score (4.55$\pm$0.33) and practice score (4.55$\pm$0.45) compared to the score of knowledge (p＜0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that (1) the employees＇ education level and work experience in school food-service programs affected their knowledge, (2) age, level of living, monthly income, and housing type affected their attitudes, and (3) monthly income, level of living, housing type, and work experience in school food-service programs affected their practices. Pearson＇s correlation analysis confirmed that the knowledge and attitude scores were significantly correlated (r=0.598, p＜0.001). The results indicate that the knowledge, attitude, and practice levels of the employees regarding the food hygiene and safety were better than expected, however, the results suggest a need for the adoption of approaches which take account of socio-economic and environmental influences on behavior to improve and maintain their practice level. The food-handling practices of school food-service employees need to be monitored routinely in order to ensure that safe food is served to our school children.

In the present paper, An emphasis is laid upon effects of stern bulb on hydrodynamic property and manoeuvring performance. We carried out captive model tests in circulating water channel with two ship models of which the frame lines of aft bodies are different. such as normal stern form and stern form with bulb, but of which the other parts are exactly same. The tests conducted consist of hull resistance test, effective thrust measurement, oblique tow test, and measurements of factors related to rudder force. From the results of model tests, we discussed effects of stern bulb on hull forces and on hull-propeller-rudder interactions, comparing with normal stern form. Furthermore, we also discussed effects of stern bulb on course stability. turning ability. spiral characteristics and zig-zag manoeuvre by computer simulation. As a result, it is clarified that the adoption of stern bulb makes course stability the worse and turning ability the better. The difference of the hydrodynamic derivatives of naked hull between two ship forms cause the worse course stability of the ship with stern bulb. The differences of the effective inflow velocity to rudder and hull forces induced by steered rudder cause the better turning ability of the ship with stern bulb.

This study is to suggest conditions for mitigating techno-stress due to the adoption of the knowledge management system(KMS). Specifically, the study suggests that techno overload and techno complexity are negative factors on the intention to use KMS, and suggests that authentic leadership and feedback mitigate techno-stress. We conducted an online survey in May 2021 of employees in organizations that applied KMS, and obtained 417 samples. We performed the structural equation modeling of AMOS 22.0 for hypothesis testing and analyzed the main effect and the moderating effect. The result is as follows. First, techno overload and techno complexity reduced the intention to use the KMS. Second, authentic leadership increased the intention to use the KMS and mitigated techno overload and techno complexity. Third, feedback moderated the negative relationship between techno-stress and intention to use the KMS. The study has implications from the perspective of suggesting the strategic direction (authentic leadership and feedback) at the organizational level for mitigating techno-stress, which may be a problem when introducing and applying a KMS from the perspective of organization employees.
