Objectives: Poor menstrual health may lead to school absenteeism and adverse health outcomes for adolescents. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of pubertal and menstrual health education on health and preventive behaviors among Iranian secondary school girls. Methods: A quasi-experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a health intervention program. A total of 578 students (including intervention and control participants) in 12 schools in Tehran Province, Iran were included by multistage random sampling. The program comprised seven 2-hour educational sessions. After confirming the reliability and validity of a researcher-made questionnaire, that questionnaire was used to collect the required data, and the groups were followed up with after 6 months. Results: After the educational intervention, the mean scores of menstrual health-related knowledge and constructs of the theory of planned behavior were significantly higher in the intervention group than in the control group (p<0.001 for all dimensions). Conclusions: The results of this study emphasize the effectiveness of menstrual health interventions in schools. These findings should also encourage health policy-makers to take committed action to improve performance in schools.

Model uncertainty is a key factor that could influence the accuracy and reliability of numerical model-based analysis. It is necessary to acquire an appropriate updating approach which could search and determine the realistic model parameter values from measurements. In this paper, the Bayesian model updating theory combined with the transitional Markov chain Monte Carlo (TMCMC) method and K-means cluster analysis is utilized in the updating of the structural model parameters. Kriging and polynomial chaos expansion (PCE) are employed to generate surrogate models to reduce the computational burden in TMCMC. The selected updating approaches are applied to three structural examples with different complexity, including a two-storey frame, a ten-storey frame, and the national stadium model. These models stand for the low-dimensional linear model, the high-dimensional linear model, and the nonlinear model, respectively. The performances of updating in these three models are assessed in terms of the prediction uncertainty, numerical efforts, and prior information. This study also investigates the updating scenarios using the analytical approach and surrogate models. The uncertainty quantification in the Bayesian approach is further discussed to verify the validity and accuracy of the surrogate models. Finally, the advantages and limitations of the surrogate model-based updating approaches are discussed for different structural complexity. The possibility of utilizing the boosting algorithm as an ensemble learning method for improving the surrogate models is also presented.

Could blood type provide a key to wellness and even affect our personality? The theory that blood type is linked to personality (and other mental and physical qualities) is popular mainly in Japan, though it has carried over to Taiwan and South Korea. The present study is the result of a scientific research in which the relationship between two important variables, namely blood group a nd group participation, are determined in the research framework. Based on some collected data from manufacturing firms which are accepted firms in Tehran Stock Exchange, and through cluster sampling a sample was selected. 380 questionnaires were distributed to the personnel of production line, of the firms then the reliability and validity of the questionnaires through independence test and average ratio comparison of the two population were examined, and through Pearson's chi-square formula, the relationship between blood group (independent variable) and group participation (dependent variable) were tested, then through Schuprow coefficient, the prioritization of blood groups over group participation was identified and the following results were obtained: people group participation is affected by their personality features which is derived from their temperament, mood, and characteristics. The study also showed that people blood groups has an effect on their group cooperation, and among blood groups, blood group A has the greatest tendency to group participation and then blood group O, AB, B are prioritized respectively.

산림과 계곡 속에서 휴양을 통한 개인의 자아개발과 주위사람들과의 교류의 장소, 환경에 대한 교육의 장소, 심리적 안정과 정신적 편안함을 누리기 위한 장소로서 자연휴양림이 각광을 받고 있다. 1988년부터 급격히 설립되기 시작한자 연휴양림은 이용객 또한 증가되고 있으며, 지역적 여건이나 환경적 여건에 따라 그 특징이 세분화 되어 가고 있다. 그리고 주 5일제의 영향과 휴식, 여가, 웰빙 등에 대한 관심 증대 그리고 여름이나 행락철 또는 주말에 집중되는 이용객들로 인해 조용히 심신의 휴양을 원하는 방문객들은 기대한 휴양 욕구를 충족하지 못하였다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 이용객의 효율적 만족도 향상을 위해 전국 국 공유 85개 자연휴양림을 군집분류한 선행연구를 바탕으로 각각의 군집별 만족도의 차이를 검증하였다. 설문은 각각의 군집별로 적절히 배분하여 1,132부를 회수하여 유효한 설문지 1,015부를 분석에 이용하였으며, 설문의 신뢰성과 구축된 모형식의 통계적 적절함을 검증하였다. 그 결과, 군집별로 만족도에 영향을 미치는 독립변수의 순위에 유의한 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 수용잠재적 자연휴양림군집, 내부활동적 자연휴양림군집, 내부활동, 수용잠재혼합 자연휴양림군집에서는 휴양 및 피로회복의 변수가 만족도에 가장 큰 영향력을 미치고 있으며, 그 외의 변수들의 영향력 순서도 다름을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 이용실적지표 자연휴양림군집에서는 방문비용의 적절함이, 교육적지 표 군집에서는 주변관광지와의 연계성이 만족도에 가장 큰 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 군집별로 차별화된 자원의 배분을 통하여 이용객에 대한 효율적인 만족도 향상을 위한 서비스 및 자연휴양림 환경의 정비작업에 우선순위를 제공하여 줄 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 국내 문화콘텐츠산업의 산업역량분석을 통해 게임산업과 캐릭터산업의 산업인프라 현황을 파악하고, 두 산업이 문화콘텐츠 산업 특성상 OSMU와 연관산업 역량이 있는 권역을 규명하고자 수행되었다. 연구방법으로는 문화콘텐츠산업 통계자료(2012년)를 기초로 하여 서울, 경기, 인천의 수도권, 강원권, 충청권, 동남권, 호남권, 대경권, 제주권의 7대 권역으로 구분하여 게임산업과 캐릭터산업의 LQ지수를 분석하였다. 연구방법으로는 연관산업분석 지표 중 산업인프라 지표로 활용되는 산업체수, 종업원 수, 매출액에 기초한 LQ 입지분석을 수행하였다. 연구결과 두 산업 모두 산업체수, 종업원수, 매출액의 정량적 평가에서 서울, 경기 및 인천의 수도권 권역에 산업인프라가 집중되어 있는 것으로 나타나, 권역비교에 수도권을 포함한 경우와 제외한 LQ 분석을 실시하였다. 수도권이 포함되어 있는 경우 수도권, 동남권, 제주권과 강원권이 게임산업과 캐릭터산업 모두 타 문화콘텐츠산업에 비해 고경쟁력 지역으로 나타났고, 수도권이 제외된 경우는 제주권과 동남권이 고경쟁력 지역으로 나타나 두 산업간 연관산업의 가능성이 큰 권역으로 선정되었다. 이상의 연구결과를 통해 각 권역의 문화콘텐츠산업 대비 해당 게임산업과 캐릭터산업의 상대적 비율을 통해 해당 권역의 타 문화콘텐츠 산업 대비 두 산업의 경쟁력을 평가할 수 있었다. 문화콘텐츠 산업이 OSMU 산업이며 한 산업의 발전이 또 다른 사업으로의 파생효과도 크다는 이론적 제언에 대하여 본 연구는 이러한 산업연계를 위한 산업인프라를 정량적으로 분석하고 그 타당성을 제시할 수 있었다.

Nitrogenase 촉매에서 Fe-단백질을 포함하는 [4Fe-4S] 클라스터의 기능은 기질의 결합과 환원 자리를 포함하는 MoFe-단백질로 핵산 의존 전자 주개로 작용하는 것이다. 이러한 방법의 Fe-단백질의 기능은 Mofe-단백질과 상호작용을 위해 적합한 구조를 갖추며 전자 전달을 위한 추진력을 제공하기 위해 산화 환원 퍼텐셜을 변화시키는 능력에 의존한다. Nitrogenase Fe-단백질에 MgADP가 결합한 (혹은 떨어진) 구조적 정보는 핵산 결합 자리로부터 MoFe-단백질과의 결합력을 조절하기 위한 장거리 상호작용 메커니즘을 제시한다. 스위치 I과 II의 두 가지 경로가 뉴클레오티드의 신호전달 메커니즘을 담당한다. MgADP가 결합된 Fe-단백질의 구조는 Fe 단백질이 핵산과 결합할 때 관찰되는 [4Fe-4S] 클라스터의 생물리학적 특성 변화의 기초를 제공한다. 스위치, I과 II의 핵산 의존 신호전달 경로에서 특정 아미노산이 치환된 nitrogenase Fe-단백질의 구조들이 X-선 회절법에 의해서 결정되었다. 이들 경로는 아미노산 치환 연구, 구조 분석, 유사한 핵산 의존 신호전달 경로에 이용된 다른 단백질 등에 의해서도 분석되었다. 이들 경로가 거대분자 착물 형성과 분자간 전자 전달을 위한 MgADP 결합과 가수분해의 신호전달 경로로의 타당성이 조사되었다. 이러한 결과는 nitrogenase Fe 단백질과 MoFe-단백질 착물에서 Fe-단백질의 변이와 상호작용의 생물리학적 및 생화학적 특성을 위한 기초적 자료를 제공할 것이다.
