In this treatise, a survey was conducted on American female consumers to confirm the possibility of segmenting the American cosmetic industry by classifying lifestyles and analysing differences in consumer behavior, and also to provide global marketing strategy for entry into the American cosmetics industry by Korean companies. The results of the analysis provided three categories of American female consumer lifestyles. The first is the "practical conservative" type(58 people) who are fairly indifferent to or uninterested in external changes. The second is the "pro-active sensitive" type(48 people) who are interested in external changes and want to live a leading life. The last is the "neutral economical" type(54 people) who resemble characteristics that are in between the previous two types. The study has showed there was a difference in consumer motivation, considerations during selection, factors associated with shop choice according to consumer classification. It provides evidence that lifestyles can be a criteria in segmenting the American cosmetics market.

Purpose: This study is a qualitative analysis of Korean-American (K-A) women's cancer prevention in the US. Methods: Qualitative research was conducted. Fifteen K-A women in four states were interviewed. Content theme analysis was used to analyze verbatim transcriptions of interviews. Results: Participants experienced difficulties in utilizing cancer screening programs. Factors include unfamiliarity with the US health care system, high health care costs or lack of health insurance, language barriers, and irregular and sporadic cancer screening participation. Participants also actively pursued non-institutional approaches to cancer prevention. They engaged in word-of-mouth informational exchanges in K-A communities, sought cancer screening in hospitals in Korea, conducted internet searches, autonomously decided on their health issues, and adopted healthy practices including better diets, physical exercise, and spiritual practices. Conclusion: It is necessary to implement measures to increase K-A women's utilization of the US cancer screening services and to encourage their active engagement in hands-on cancer prevention practices. K-A women should be empowered through increased familiarity with US cancer screening services and through the establishment of improved K-A community social services.

본 연구는 한국과 미국간 성인 여성의 3차원 인체치수에 대한 지수치의 비교를 통해 양국간성인 여성의 신체의 비례를 분석하고, 이 연구결과를 대미 수출입 업무를 수행하는 의류업체의 생산자료 및 양국여성의 체형 차이를 이해할 수 있는 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있도록 하는데 연구의 목적이 있다. 본 연구의 분석대상은 Size Korea사업에 의해 수집된 18세 이상의 한국인 성인 여성 1,988명과 SizeUSA사업에 의해 확보된 18세 이상미국성인 여성 6,306명의 3차원 측정자료이다. 본 연구에서는 총 35개의 지수치(키, 몸무게, 기타 비만 파악 지수치)를 활용해 양국 성인 여성의 신체 특징을 파악하고자 하였다. 첫째, 양국 여성의 3차원 측정치간의 분석결과, 샅앞뒤길이는 양국간 유의차가 검증되지 않았고, 어깨경사각을 제외한 전체 항목에서 미국 여성의 측정치가 한국 여성의 측정치에 비해 유의적으로 큰 것을 확인하였다. 둘째, 지수치를 통한 체형 특징 분석의 타당성을 검증하고자 한국과 미국 여성 측정치 각각에 대한 상관분석을 행하였으며, 이 결과에 의거해 양국 모두 키와 몸무게 항목이 다른 주요 측정치와의 상관이 고르게 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었으므로 이 두 항목을 활용한 지수치의 비교가 유효함을 알 수 있었다. 셋째, 키 지수치, 몸무게 지수치, 드롭치 및 비만을 판단할 수 있는 지수치를 활용해 양국 여성간 차이를 분석한 결과, 직접측정치를 통한 분석과는 달리 키 지수치에서는 키에 대한 다른 높이항목의 지수치는 미국인 여성이 유의적으로 작지만, 키에 대한 타 너비항목의 지수치는 한국인 여성이 유의적으로 큰 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 몸무게 지수치 비교 결과, 모든 항목에서 한국 여성의 지수치가 유의적으로 큰 것을 알 수 있었으며, 반면 드롭치와 비만판정이 가능한 지수치의 비교에서는 모두 미국 여성의 지수치가 한국 여성보다 유의적으로 큰 것으로 나타나, 미국 여성이 한국 여성에 비해 체간부의 굴곡이 큰 체형이며 비만도도 높은 것을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of the study is to call forth a special attention to nonbook materials as part of library materials and to improve its bibliographic study of the Korean library community. For this purpose, this paper will concern the cataloging codes of nonbook materials in Anglo-American tradition for discussion, analyses and comparison. Furthermore, an emphasis was made on the general historical development of nonbook cataloging codes mainly used in U. S. and its impact on Anglo-American Cataloging Rules (AACR). In addition, in the part III of AACR1, several controversial issues will be argued for further revision in provision. As shown in the revised Chapter 12 of AACR 1, this thesis will try to identify common characteristics and requirements of the standard cataloging codes. It will require a comparison of various subjects with three other leading international cataloging codes, served as the principal sources of information for the revision. And my final discussion will be argued for the comparison of the differences between AACR 1 and AACR 2 with exemples.

Background: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrinopathies among reproductive-age women. Its metabolic features often overlap with those associated with metabolic syndrome (MS) and insulin resistance syndrome (IRS). The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence and predictors of MS and IRS in infertile Vietnamese women with PCOS. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at a tertiary fertility centre at Hue University Hospital from June 2016 to November 2017. A total of 441 infertile women diagnosed with PCOS based on the revised 2003 Rotterdam consensus criteria were enrolled. MS and IRS were defined based on the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute/American Heart Association Adult Treatment Panel III 2005 and American College of Endocrinology IRS 2003 criteria, respectively. Complete clinical and biochemical measurements of 318 women were available for analysis. Independent predictors of MS and IRS were identified using multivariate logistic regression. Results: The overall prevalence of MS and IRS in women with PCOS was 10.4% and 27.0%, respectively. We identified older age (>30 years) and obesity as independent predictors of MS and IRS. Elevated anti-$M{\ddot{u}}llerian$ hormone levels increased the risk of IRS, but not that of MS. Conclusion: MS and IRS are prevalent disorders among infertile Vietnamese women with PCOS. PCOS is not solely a reproductive problem. Screening and early intervention for MS and/or IRS based on anthropometric, metabolic, and reproductive hormone risk factors should be an integral part of fertility care.
