This study tests the applicability of concepts of integrated leadership-in-government and follower happiness in South Korea and then comes up with implication and limitations on the applicability based on the study of Mathias et al. (2018). The study adopts eight leaderships: accountability, rule-following, political loyalty, network governance, task-oriented, relations-oriented, change-oriented and diversity-oriented leadership that Mathias et al. (2018) employ from Fernandez et al. (2010) and Tummers and Knies (2016). We also select job satisfaction and self-perceived performance to measure follower happiness depending on Mathias et al. (2018). According to the analytical results, it shows that accountability leadership, network governance leadership, task-oriented leadership, relations-oriented leadership, and change-oriented leadership have positive influences on follower happiness measured. Based on the analytical results, this study suggests implication and limitation on the applicability of the link between integrated leadership and follower happiness in comparison to the results from Mathias et al. (2018).

VE is one of the technologies that are essential to promote cost reduction and performance improvement in construction projects. In the VE process, there are very important steps in deciding whether to adopt VE ideas and alternatives or not. However, when examining the possibility of selecting and adopting alternatives, it is difficult to clarify the differences and characteristics of the existing and improved proposals due to lack of understanding of the owner and inadequate consideration of harmonization with the alternative surroundings. In order to overcome these problems, it is necessary to effectively exchange information related to alternatives among VE participants and to examine the applicability of VE alternatives more in-depth. Therefore, in this study, a process for reviewing the applicability of VE Alternatives using BIM based VR was proposed to review more appropriate VE alternatives.

To complete the appropriate pattern language as a planning tool for suburban houses in Korea, this study reviews the characteristics in applying the pattern language to suburban houses in Korea by creating the pattern application examination chart regarding 110 patterns in architecture and evaluating and analyzing 24 examples in terms of the applicability of the patterns, the results of which are as set forth below. Firstly, when grouping the upper 31 patterns by similar characteristics, it was distinguished by the characteristics relating to (i) securing of lighting and viewing; (ii) placing of buildings and space and adjustment of inside and outside privacy through such placing; (iii) placing of proper motion line and functions of adjacent space according to such motion line; and (iv) determining of important space such as personal room, area for couple or children, staircase, entrance, hallway, etc. Secondly, when analyzing the reasons that the lower 41 patterns have not been applied, it was characterized by (i) the work space not suitable for suburban houses or the patterns suitable for commercial space; (ii) the patterns not suitable in Korea due to cultural differences; and (iii) the patterns whose applicability cannot be confirmed due to the limitation of examples and materials used in this study. Thirdly, the analysis of each pattern group (A through M) revealed that the pattern groups D and G are rarely related to suburban houses and J and M are patterns whose applicability cannot be determined in this study. Another characteristics is that the pattern groups B, E, F, I and L which obtain high scores in applicability are importantly reflected in planning for suburban houses in Korea. Fourthly, this study renders the average score of applicability, and the applicability rate, of the examples and confirms the number of the patterns applied in confirmity, patterns partially or potentially applied and patterns not applied at all.

On the above, character of Incoterms and CISG, applicability of Incoterms to the principles of interpretation of CISG for contracts terms, and to the regulations of delivery and payment of price in connection with applicability of Incoterms to CISG are discussed. Conclusions are as follows : Although both rules is regulations which have to understand in connection with int'l trades of goods but CISG is a comprehensive substantive law in connection with a whole dealing course. On the other hand Incoterms are detailed substantive law of performance for two important sphere, that is to say, delivery and payment in the field of performance of CISG. According to both rules, letter credit is realizing processes of detailed performance for delivery and payment. As professor of Honnold's opinion, the relationship between Incoterms and CISG is peculiar and complementary. Therefore instead of considering the both from a point of pure legal views which both rules raise many problems that still a wait well consolidated and acknowledged answers, we have th consider the both with L/C system that still constitute a main payment system. Particularly ICC and Uncitral know that they are not only directly and indirectly involved in regulating process of the both sets but also can apply Incoterms to CISG on connection with the use of L/C.

Along with the increasing demand for automatic and mechanical tunnel excavation methods in Korea, the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM) method of tunnel excavation has become increasingly popular. However, in spite of this rising demand, few studies have been performed on the TBM method, in Korea. For this reason, this study focused on evaluation of the applicability of TBM performance prediction models based on field data in order to contribute to the basic and essential parts of TBM designation and the TBM method of tunnel excavation in Korea. These rock properties can be defined as the mechanical and physical factors of rock that have an influence on a disc cutter's ability to cut rock, and provide information for the evaluation of the applicability of field data. Based on outcomes from these tests, applicability of the prediction model was evaluated and the predicted performance of a TBM was compared with real field data obtained from four different TBM construction sites in Korea.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the applicability of the evidence based guideline for prompted voiding by Lyons & Specht (2001) in National Guideline $Clearinghouse^{TM}$ for use in Korea based on the experts' opinions. Method: The target expert group consisted of 8 registered nurses, 6 physicians, and 5 nursing professors who are experts in urinary incontinence. This study used a questionnaire survey. The appropriateness, applicability, and the present application of each recommendation in the guideline were analyzed with descriptive statistics using the SPSS program, with content analysis based on the experts' opinions. Result: The scores on each recommendation's appropriateness showed the high degree of agreement among nurses, physicians, and nursing professors. However, the recommendation for 'use of oxybutinin' showed the lowest score as 5.89. It was notable that the most recommendations scored lower for applicability compared with appropriateness. The reasons for lower scores for applicability were the lack of clinicians' knowledge of assessment and management, and the lack of resources in clinical settings in Korea. Conclusion: This study will augment the understanding of the actual urinary incontinence management in Korean clinical settings and can be used as the baseline data for further study of tailoring international guidelines into local and national clinical settings.

This study is aimed to define and classify GREEN TOURISM (GT) resources as the basis for rural sustainable development, and to analyze the current conditions of GT and applicable resources in Korea. For these purposes, a field survey about 24 rural villages in Japan and Korea is applied, accompanied by a questionnaire survey of 30 specialists, as well as a literature review. The results of this study are summarized as follows. The concept of GT has 3 important points: interchange between rural and urban residents, staying in villages, and residents' participation. GT resource are divided into 4 types: Agricultural, Ecological, Historical and Living resources in a space and activity program. In addition, the GT resources in Japan are more quantitatively abundant than in Korea, but Korean agricultural and ecological resources were more abundant relatively. According to the several methods above, 18 space and 14 activity programs were classified. Lastly, this study analyzed the applicable 32 Korean resources using the specialists' questionnaire survey. Among the space resources, ecological landscape, farm produce, farm-land, water, and historical landscape have higher applicability, but the applicability of sports, event, commemoration, and divine space are lower. Among the activity programs, farm produce, animal, plant, food&beverage, and living appliance have higher applicability.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop a standardized education protocol for peritoneal dialysis patients. Methods: First, the demand for education was investigated from the 27 patients on peritoneal dialysis and 16 guardians, and later, the standardized nursing education protocol has been developed through the comprehensive literature review and the critical analysis of the related studies. Contents validity and applicability have been tested through the expert group survey. Results: The standardized peritoneal dialysis nursing education protocol with 9 areas and 20 items has been developed. The content validity for timing and duration, contents, method, and place of education proposed by the protocol were all above than 0.8. In terms of the applicability of the protocol, the experts scored between 4.20 to 4.93 for all items except one. The item on home visit education acquired the lowest applicability score, because there might exist potential restrictions in visiting patient's home. Conclusion: The standardized education protocol developed in this study turned out to be adequate by representing high content validity for all items and the applicability also was high except the item on home visit education. Further researches to test the effects of this education protocol should be done.
