  • The scientific inquiry enterprise consists of formulating hypotheses, testing hypotheses, evaluating evidence, and revising hypothesis. Scientific inquiry in the science classrooms requires students' background experience and knowledge with the phenomenon in order to ask appropriate questions, identify and define variables operationally, formulate hypotheses, and design clear and complete experiment. The ability to test hypotheses has been postulated to play a central role in cognitive processes. The purpose of this study was to analyze what the change of the quantity and quality of the hypothesis, the rejecting or accepting of the hypothesis, and the use results in the repetitional hypothesis activity experiments. To examine the problems, this study analyzed 5 classes which were designed and administered to 16 students of the 7th grade. The results of this study showed that students preferred the engineering method to scientific method and the quality of a second hypothesis got low. The quality of the hypothesis came to be higher through a repetitional hypothesis and the number of hypothesis was reduced. The results of the experiments did not play central roles in revising hypotheses and accepting or rejecting hypothesis.

  • It is hypothesized that a number of environmental factors affect animals' behavior. Without controlling these variables, it is very hard for researchers to get not only reliable, but replicable data from various behavioral experiments testing animals' cognitive as well as emotional functions. For example, laboratory mice which had restricted environment showed different synaptic potentiation properties with wild mice (Zhao MG et al., 2009). While performing behavioral experiments, however, it is sometimes inevitable that the researcher changes the animals' environments, as by switching the cages in which experimental animals are housed and separating animals raised together into small experimental groups. In this study, we investigated the effect of environmental changes on mice's emotional behaviors by socially isolating them or reducing the size of their cage. We found that social isolation selectively increases the animals' levels of anxiety, while leaving depression-like behaviors unchanged. On the other hand, alteration of the housing dimensions affected neither their anxiety levels nor their depression-like behaviors. These results suggest that environmental variables may have a prominent impact on experimental animals' emotional behaviors and possibly their psychological states, leading to bias in the behavioral data produced from experiments.

  • 스펙트럼 감지를 하기 위해 에너지 검파기는 수신 신호의 에너지를 미리 정해둔 임계값과 비교하여 1차 사용자가 면허 대역 내에서 활동을 하는 지 여부를 판단한다. 여기에서 임계값은 해당 주파수 대역에 존재하는 잡음의 전력 수준과 관련이 있다. 에너지 검파에 대한 과거의 연구 대부분은 잡음 전력을 미리 정확하게 알고 있다는 가정에 기초한 것이었다. 그러나 실제 환경에서는 잡음 전력에 대한 불확실성이 존재하기 때문에 이 가정은 현실적으로 유효하지 않다. 그러므로 잡음 전력의 불확실성이 에너지 검파기의 스펙트럼 감지 성능에 미치는 영향을 파악할 필요가 있다. 이에 이 논문에서는 유수 정리(residue theorem)에 기반을 둔 적분을 활용하여 그 영향을 수학적으로 분석하고 그 결과를 제시하고자 한다.

  • Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the effect of multidimensional program on cognition, physical function and depression among institutionalized elderly and the relationship between study variables and resident's characteristics and health related variables. Method: This study involved a one group pre and post test, comparison of variables over a 12 month period. To investigate this research question, data of 114 residents of a nursing home were analyzed. Results: There was statistically significant difference in MMSE-K (t=-2.63, p=.010), ADL (t=-2.85, p=.005), and depression (t=4.66, p=.000) before and after program participation. Conclusion: These results indicate that, for a year their regular involvement in a broad spectrum of multidimensional program activities can improve in cognitive, physical and emotional perspectives, but the level of IADL decreased significantly (t=-6.72, p=.000). Further testing is required with the control group, to compare with community resident elders in order to explore the effects on social skill of elderly.

  • Purpose: To identify the feasibility and provide the direction for future studies regarding hand massage, studies on hand massage published in Korea were analyzed. Methods: Using the key word of hand massage, 23 studies which identified the effects on sleep, pain, anxiety and depression were found. They were analyzed on research tendency and effects. Research tendency was analyzed in terms of published year, methods, study design, sample characteristics, and outcome variables. Effects were analyzed with hypothesis testing and effect size. Results: Among 23 studies, 60%(14 studies) were about hand massage and others (9 studies) were about aroma hand massage. The most prominent outcome variables were physiological and cognitive/emotional ones. To improve sleep, hand massage over 60 minutes was necessary while pain and anxiety were improved in the studies which less than 10 minutes hand massage was applied. Aroma hand massage was more effective than hand massage. Effect size for anxiety and depression was larger than those of sleep and pain. Conclusion: Hand massage and aroma hand massage are recommended to improve anxiety and depression as an independent nursing intervention. More randomized clinical trials are necessary to increase the validity and identify the effects of hand massage on sleep, pain, anxiety and depression.

  • Purpose As job market squeezes and more institutions have been requiring NCS(National Competency Standards) based recruitments, the importance of NCS has been growing. Among the 10 domains of NCS, the most relevant one with MIS(Management Information Systems) field is 'information ability', which is becoming more important with the advent of the fourth industrial revolution era. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of college students' information ability on their career preparation behavior. Design/methodology/approach In this study, we set up a process model to comprehend the effect of college students' information ability on career preparation behavior based on social cognitive career theory. For research model testing, 561 questionnaires were used for empirical analysis through structural equations modeling. Findings Empirical analysis showed that information ability positively influenced college students' career preparation behaviors for employment. In addition, this study presented a process model explaining the effect of information capability on career preparation behavior. In order to strengthen the information ability of college students, not only university-level efforts, but also MIS discipline efforts should be accompanied. Other academic and practical implications are discussed.

  • Acceleration of the pace of life, increasing the amount of information, the emergence of "clip way of thinking" as a phenomenon has led to the problem of choosing forms of presentation of educational materials to students. One of the ways to solve this problem is to use the means of visualization of information flow, forasmuch as the thinking of modern youth is more effective in perceiving visual images than verbal means. The purpose of the research is to prove the effectiveness of the use of visualization in the process of teaching Ukrainian as a foreign language to students with clip way of thinking. The following methods have been used, namely: analysis, synthesis, comparison, systematization and generalization of scientific literature; testing and surveys; pedagogical experiment; quantitative and qualitative analysis of data, interpretation and generalization of the research results. The essence of visualization means has been revealed; the expediency of their use in the methodology of teaching foreign students the Ukrainian language has been substantiated. It has been proven that the role of Ukrainian teachers lies in taking into account all new trends in teaching, integrating computer perception of information by foreign students into teaching technology and using cognitive visualization in order to intensify the learning process.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 선행 연구에서 보고된 영어 모국어 아동의 굴절형태소 습득 과정을 대규모 언어습득 데이터베이스를 활용하여 검증하는 것이다. 이를 위해, 우리는 CHILDES(Child Language Data Exchange System) 데이터베이스에 등장하는 1-7세 영국 및 미국 아동 1,630명이 발화한 470만 어절 말뭉치를 대상으로 굴절형태소의 발달 과정을 분석하였다. 본 논문에서는 동사의 현재분사 -ing, 과거형 -(e)d, 형용사의 비교/최상급 -er/est 등의 형태소에 대해 어휘 유형(Type)과 사례(Token) 빈도, 전체 사례(Token)에 대한 유형(Type) 비율인 TTR(Type per Token Ratio), 어휘 다양성 척도인 Lexical Diversity(D) 값을 구하여 이를 국가 및 연령별로 비교, 분석하였다. 그 결과, 굴절형태소별로 연령과 D 값의 상관관계가 다르게 나타났다. 특히, 현재분사 -ing와 D 값 사이에는 주목할 만한 상관관계가 나타나지 않은 반면, 과거형 -(e)d의 경우 양의 상관관계 경향성이 보였고, 비교/최상급 -er/-est는 유의미한 상관관계를 보였다. 이는 현재진행형이 과거형보다 먼저 습득된다고 보고한 Brown(1973)의 견해를 지지한다. 다음으로, 과잉일반화에 따른 오류 표현이 2-3세 사이에 많이 나타나면서 U자형 발달 양상을 보였다. 과잉일반화도 현재분사보다 과거형에서 많이 나타났는데, 이것 또한 현재분사가 과거형보다 일찍 습득된다는 주장을 지지한다. 영국과 미국 아동의 연령별 굴절형태소 사용 양상을 비교한 결과, 미국 아동의 D 값이 영국 아동보다 높았다. 이는 미국 아동이 영국 아동보다 더 많은 어휘 유형에 대해 굴절형태소를 사용했음을 의미한다. 본 연구는 소수의 아동을 대상으로 수행된 선행 연구의 다양한 논점을 대규모 데이터베이스로 검증하고, CHILDES 코퍼스를 효율적으로 분석하는 연구 방법론을 제안했다는 점에서 의의가 있다.
