Objectives : Based on a national sample survey, we present an analysis of the current situation in the use of moxibustion therapeutics by qualified medical practitioners in Korea. Methods : The survey population of 11,737 hospitals is stratified by administrative regions, and 331 of them are randomly selected from the list of hospitals. The same number of Korean medical doctors is interviewed under the computer-assisted telephone interviewing(CATI) system. The bound on the error of estimation is ${\pm}\;5.0%$ point. Results : Of the 331 Korean medical doctors surveyed, 69% have used moxibustion therapy for remedial treatment. About half of those doctors have employed the therapy for their patients over 30%. The average number of acupuncture points per treatment using the therapy mostly ranges 1 between 5. The percent of practitioners, who have the number of average minutes less than 20 in treatment, is 74%. The number of practitioners who primarily use modified moxibustion is 4 times as many as that of those using traditional moxibustion. Conclusions : Considering the survey results, if the laser heater, alternative to conventional moxibustion, which not only gives high thermal effect but also reduces both the users inconvenience and side effects, are developed, it may benefit more patients as well as Korean medical doctors.

A survey method in Korea has being developed rapidly since a survey company was established in 1968. In latest, the CATI, internet survey, Notebook, PDA survey methods are being utilized in accordance with communication development. This article focuses on the practical use and the strength and weakness of the PDA survey solution which employs 'KISS' system designed by KRIVET itself. The survey using PDA has, on the one hand, such strengths as follows : 1) efficient field control, 2) reduction of time for verifying data and generation of proper data 3) shortening survey duration from intial survey to data completion, 4) cutting down survey personnel and cost. On the other hand, survey using PDA has the following weakness: 1) limitation of questionnaire expression, 2) increasing time for survey, 3) communication barrier in some regions.

China's "two sessions," namely, the National People's Congress (NPC) and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), has significant meaning to the political life of the nation. It collects opinions and advice from different groups of people annually. "Two sessions" 2013 was especially eye-catching, because new state leaders were elected at the meetings. Using CATI (Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing) system, the Media and Public Opinion Center of Fudan University (FMORC) conducted surveys of China's "two sessions" every year from 2007 to 2013. In 2013, the influence of new media on public opinion has become increasingly significant. Microblog and WeChat have become two types of important media for Shanghai residents to express their opinions and take part in China's "two sessions." Based on the empirical findings, this paper examines Shanghai Residents' cognition, attitudes and expressions towards "two sessions" 2013 and analyzes how new media affect the public opinions on significant political events.

본 논문에서는 글로벌 표준화 시스템으로의 확장성을 고려하고 자동화 처리 개념을 적용한 한국형 리서치 시스템을 개발한다. 리서치 시스템의 기반이 되어지는 설문조사의 종류에는 전화조사, 온라인조사, 면접조사 등의 조사방법이 있으며 현재 대부분의 프로세스가 수동적 작업화 상태에서 데이터를 수집 검증하여 비효율적인 상태로 운영되어지고 있다. 현재 일부 기업들이 자체 프로그램의 개발을 시도하고 있지만 전문 프로그래머들의 리서치 업무에 대한 업무분석 및 이해 부족과 외부 개발 용역에 대한 고비용성으로 대부분 시스템 구축에 완성도가 낮아 개발시스템 운영에 실패를 하고 있는 실정이다. 부가적으로 개별 기업들이 초기 개발비용을 감수하지 않기 위해 외국산 리서치 솔루션을 구입하면서 높은 제품 비용과 로열티 비용 부담으로 인하여 기업 리서치 시스템 구축을 통한 효율화를 이루지 못하는 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 산학협력 연구개발로 1회의 설문입력 과정으로 개별적인 전화조사, 온라인조사, 면접조사를 동시에 가능하도록 통합하는 자동화 시스템과 일반 사용자까지 쉽고, 빠르게 설문지를 입력하고 진행하여 컴퓨터에 의한 정확한 데이터를 신속하게 고객에게 전달 할 수 있는 서비스 체제를 구축하고 설문조사의 최종 단계인 데이터 분석 및 가공에 필요한 기본적인 분석, 통계 기능 제공과 오피스 프로그램 및 통계 프로그램인 SPSS프로그램과 호환성을 주어 리서치 운영 프로세스의 개선을 목적으로 한국형 자동화 리서치 솔루션을 개발한다.
