This study examines the causal relationship between adolescent impulsivity, academic procrastination and school adaptability. The main purpose of this study is to confirm the degree of influence among these variables and analyze the causes of school adaptability. In this model, impulsivity and academic procrastination were set as independent variables and school adaptability was set as a dependent variable. Impulsivity of adolescents affects academic procrastination and school adaptability, and academic procrastination will affect school adaptability. As a result of the research, first, it can be seen that adolescents 'cognition impulsivity, motion impulsivity, and unplanned impulsivity have a significant influence on behavioral in adolescents'. Second, adolescents' cognition impulsivity, motion impulsivity, and unplanned impulsivity a significant influence on the cognitive in the adolescents'. Third, adolescents' behavioral, cognitive, and emotional have a significant influence on school adaptability in adolescents' school adaptability. In conclusion, we proposed a policy proposal on school adaptability by deriving meaning to improve adolescents' school adaptability.

This paper explores the relationship between technological characteristics within process innovation and selection of the firms of different organizational forms in the evolution of an industry. For this purpose, this paper develops a simulation model for industrial change that replicates dynamic competition for process innovation. The simulation analysis found the following causal relationship. First, the stronger innovation impact in terms of productivity jump tends to enlarge the productivity difference among the incumbent firms and increase the speed of productivity catch-up by the large diversified firms, Second, the possibility of entry, and eventual dominance by the large diversified firms increase when the innovation-productivity linkage is stronger and there is less cumulativeness in productivity determination. These results imply that technological characteristics are important factors that have influence on whether or not the large diversified firms can enter and succeed in an industry.

The previous studies regarding the usability evaluation of e-government web sites focused only on deriving affecting factors and variables. They did not find the relationship of usability, user satisfaction and revisiting. The objective of this paper is to find the causal effect how the usability of e-government web sites affect to the user satisfaction and the revisiting attitude. no scope of e-government web sites included the portal site and ie liked web sites. We developed a structural equation model and performed a user test. As a result, a perceived usability affected the revisiting, but it did not intermediate the user satisfaction.

Foreign investors'shares and their influences on the Korean stock market have never been larger and greater before since the market was completely open to foreign investors in 1992 Quantitatively and qualitatively as well, as a result, changes in the patterns of foreign investments have caused enormous effects on the interactions of major macroeconomic indices of the Korean economy. This paper is intended to investigate the causal relations of the four variables, foreigners'buy-sell ratios, stock returns, ￦/＄ exchange rates and $\yen$/＄ exchange rates, over the two time periods of the pre-IMF (1996.1.1-1997.8.15) and the post-IMF (1997.8.16-2000.6.15) based on the daily data of the variables. Granger Causality Test, Forecast Error Variance Decomposition(FEVD) using VAR model and Impulse Response Function were implemented for the empirical analysis.

This study conducted an empirical study on fashion cultural products that targeted foreign visitors to identify variables related to foreigners' purchase intention towards fashion cultural products. A total of 424 surveys were returned (with 393 deemed usable). The collected data was analyzed using SPSS 12.0 and AMOS 5.0 to provide the following results. The purchase intention model for fashion cultural products was verified along with an identification of a causal relationship where personal factors and attitudes lead to purchase intention. In particular, the effect of universalism and the exposure degree to Korea was greater than global-mindedness. Two factors (attitudes toward authenticity and towards aesthetic elements) exerted a significant effect on purchase intention; comparatively, the attitude toward authenticity showed a greater influence on the purchase intention.

It is important to maintain information system (IS) following the business and institutional change. Even if successfully developed information systems, we cannot gain the benefit from the systems without the proactive maintenance activities. However, the importance of IS maintenance has not been considered as much as the system development, and we don't have any specific performance management structure. The objective of this study is to identify the relationship between IS maintenance activities and utilization. For empirical test of the hypothesis model, the sample data is collected from public information system sites. Results from multiple regression analysis reveal that proactive maintenance activities including IS maintenance cost increase, improving functionality, and enhancing ease of use have a causal effect on the IS utilization.

Causal relationships between school maladjustment and related variables were examined in 371 5th grade elementary school students. School maladjustment was ascertained by revised the School Adjustment Test(Lim, 1993; Song, 1999). After analysis of differences in internal locus of control, academic stress, and academic achievement between the school maladjusted and adjusted groups, the study built a structural equation model of school maladjustment-related variables goodness of fit was tested with LISREL 8 for Windows. Significant differences were found in internal locus of control, academic stress, and academic achievement by level of school maladjustment. Internal locus of control, academic stress, and academic achievement both directly and/or indirectly influenced school maladjustment. These variables explained 64% of the variances in school maladjustment.

This study was designed to examine the quality of life among new generation housewives. Selected variables were home management consciousness and home management behavior, and satisfaction with family life. Path analysis was used to test the causal model of quality of life. The data for this study were collected from 834 housewives, and analyzed employing SPSS $PC^+$ statistical package. Major findings were as follows: 1. The satisfaction with family life was the strongest predictor of the quality of life. 2. Home management behavior had both direct and indirect effect via satisfaction with family life on the quality of life. 3. Home management consciousness had indirect effect through home management behavior and satisfaction with family life on the quality of life. Implications were discussed.

In this paper we： (1) analyze the relationship among public R＆D investment, private R＆D investment, and GDP by employing the Clangor causality test; (2) examine if there is any country-specific pattern in the relationship by testing the cases of Korea, the U.S. and Japan. We found some common results for the above countries as follows： (i) GDP causes Public R＆D, not vice versa; (ii) Private R＆D causes GDP; and (iii) Public R＆D does not cause Private R＆D. For the bivariate model of GDP and total R＆D, the results show the existence of one-way causality running from total R＆D to GDP f3r both U.S. and Japan. We also found bidirectional causal relationship between GDP and total R＆D for Korea, which could be interpreted as a typical pattern for newly industrialized countries.

The arene epoxides from naphthalene, 1β,2α-dihydroxy-3α,4α-epoxy- (1) and 1β,2α-dihydroxy-3β,4β-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (2) (anti- and syn-diol epoxide), 1,2-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene (3), and 1,2-epoxy-l,2-dihydronaphthalene (4), are model compounds of the ultimate carcinogenic metabolites of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, ubiquitous environmental pollutants which may be causal in several human cancers. The product distribution in the hydrolysis of 1-4 have been studied by HPLC analysis of reaction mixtures. The yields of the trans product from the hydronium-ion-catalyzed and pH-independent hydrolysis in 9 : 1 (v/v) 20 mM buffer-dioxane at 25 ℃, respectively, were; 1: 98, 100; 2: 74, 87, 3: 95, 97, 4:100, 100. The results were rationalized by conformational equilibria of the epoxides and the carbocationic and zwitterionic intermediates from the epoxides.
