This study aims at drawing implications for Korea's urban growth management policies from U.S.A's experience on this issue. This study analyzes two types of contradictions in planning and implementing urban growth management policies: 1) value conflicts in goal setting and 2) contradictions among different level of governments (local, province, nation). As mentioned by Campbell (1996), there are three types of conflicts in objective values (efficiency, equity, and environment protection): property contradiction between economic growth and equity, resource conflict between efficiency and environment protection, and development conflict between equity and environment protection in urban growth management policies. In implementing urban growth management three types of conflicts in goal values should been taken into consideration. Contradictions among local governments, province, and central government are also found in implementing growth management policies. The lessons from the United State are as follow: 1) growth management plans are initiated by the local government and during the planning process adjacent local governments review a local government's growth management plans and give inputs for the plan, 2) local government and State work together for growth management planning and specially, the State provides technical and financial assistance to local government, and 3) the State plays leading roles in local government's planning and implementing of growth management policies with carrot and stick policy.

PURPOSES: The aim of this study is to analyze and compare the operational effectiveness and safety of three different types of roundabout found in the literatures using a VISSIM and SSAM program. METHODS : The three types roundabout tested are the 2-lane roundabout (2R), the Turbo roundabout (TR), and the Flower roundabout (FR). For each scenario, three roundabout types and traffic conditions such as traffic volume and movement ratio were applied to VISSIM in order to compute the average delays. In addition the total conflict was calculated through SSAM by using trajectory data from VISSIM. RESULTS: From the analysis results, the average delay in TR and FR type was higher than the 2R. Regardless of the roundabout types, the average delay was reduced as the right-turn vehicles increased. The total conflict in TR was fewer than 2R for all traffic conditions. CONCLUSIONS : The results of this study can be used in the planning and design process of roundabout deployment. The data also provides some numerical justifications in transition from at-grade intersection to roundabout.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role conflict of head nurse； to identify the degree of the role conflict, the sources of the conflict, and the relation between the degree of the conflict and the general characteristics of head nurse. During the period from July 23, 1984 to August 4, 1984, data were collected from 109 head nurses working in 7 general hospitals in seoul. The results of this study were: 1. The degree of the role conflict of head nurse was moderate. But among the three areas in performing head nurse's role, the degree of role conflict as a operational manager was slightly serious. 2. In the various sources of the role conflict of head nurse, the main sources were the shoratage of personnel (20.7%), lack of equipment (19.3%), and lack of time. (17.6%). 3. In comparison of the degree of role conflict of head nurse, there is no significant difference in the general characteristics of head nurse. But the role conflict of head nurse as a operational manager, there is a significant difference in hospital types in which the head nurse were working. (p <0.01). And as a operational manager, there is a significant difference of role conflict in educational levels. (p <0.01).

This study is to categorize five types of conflict handling styles that employees can take when conflict occurs. The five types are integrating, avoiding, dominating, obliging, and compromising. I found these factors that explain conflicts handling styles divided them into organizational structure, task group functioning and need styles and how certain factors explain different kinds of conflict handling styles without other factors. To measure conflict handling styles, this study used the scale of conflict style devised Rahim. Data were collected by the survey method from employees engaged in the service industry located Seoul, the Province of Gyeonggi, and the Province of Gangwon. In addition, in order to prove my hypothesis, I used hierarchical regression analysis method to find the pure explanation that each factors have without multicollinearity. According to the study's result, in a person's type of needs, if the need for achievement is high, they prefer integrating style. In contrast, if the need for achievement is low, they prefer avoiding style. Also, if the need for affiliation is high, the employees prefer compromising style. But if the need for affiliation is low and the need for dominance is high, the employees favor dominating style. However, in task group functioning, group homogeneity, group cohesiveness, and group goal clarity are high, or the confidence in peers and management is high, the employees prefer obliging style to other conflicts handling styles. As well as if group homogeneity, group cohesiveness, and group goal clarity are high, it was found that they prefer compromising style. Also, if the role conflict that is related to organizational structure is serious, employees prefer obliging style, but they have weakenss in explanation. To sum up these results, if the employees have obliging style that shows lack of concerns over themselves and at the same time, have high concerns to others, is affected by task group or organization. And we can infer that the other conflicts handling styles are effected by personal characteristic.

The purpose of this study is to examine the influences of husbands' personality types and coping styles on conflict on their satisfaction in marriage life. The results are as follows: First, a most important variable that influences husbands' marital satisfaction is their own coping styles on conflict such as integration and compromise. 'Demographic variables' such as 'education', 'duration of marriage', 'income' and 'personality types', 'extraversion' or 'introversion', came next in order. Second, husbands' marital satisfaction is affected with the strategies they employ in conflict situations. In particular, the strategies as 'integration' and 'compromise' proved to be effective in getting rid of conflicts in marriage life. Third, husbands' 'demographic variables' affect their marital satisfaction. Those who were educated more wealthily and better have a tendency to have fuller marital satisfaction. The longer they had been married, the less they appeared to be satisfied with their marriages. Fourth, husbands' marital satisfaction is closely related to whether they are extroversive or introversive. Extroversive husbands have more marital satisfaction.

This study analyzes the effects of the three types of flexible work arrangements (part-time, flexitime, and reduced working hours for childcare) available in Korea on work-family conflict, facilitation, and job satisfaction for married working women ages 15-49. The study employs a panel analysis based on the first to the fourth data from the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women & Families (KLoWF). The major results are as follows. First, the availability of part-time jobs and reduced working hours to facilitate childcare is significantly related to work-family conflict for married women. If a married woman is employed in a part-time position or if reduced working hours for childcare are available, the conflict within the family caused by the job is reduced. Second, none of the three types of flexible work arrangements have a statistically significant influence on work-family facilitation for married women. Third, the availability of reduced working hours for childcare has a positive effect on the job satisfaction of married women. In conclusion, flexible working hours for women who are raising children are the main factor in reducing the negative effect of a job on a woman's family life as they contribute to work and family compatibility.

This study is aimed at searching for the ways to effectively cope with the conflicts found among the members of the hospitals by analyzing the conflict control practiced differently depending on the scale of the organization and characters of its members. The result of analysis into the types of conflict control by the members of the hospital comprising a multitude of manpower is presented as follows. 1. The hypothesis 1 which assumes that the sex will determine the type of conflict control is adopted in part at the level of p<0.05. 2. The hypothesis 2 which assumes that the working position will determine the type of conflict control is adopted in part at the level of P<0.05. 3. The hypothesis 3 which assumes that the age will determine the type of conflict control is adopted in part at the level of p<0.05. 4. The hypothesis 4 which assumes that the size of hospitals will determine the type of conflict control is adopted in part at the level of p<0.05. 5. The hypothesis 5 which assumes that the career will determine the type of conflict control is adopted in part at the level of p<0.05. 6. The hypothesis 2 which assumes that the educational background will determine the type of conflict control is adopted in part at the level of p<0.05. This study requires extended follow-up study to cover the cause of conflict and job satisfaction of the medical manpower.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the types of middle school students’ responses to dinosaur extinction inconsistent with the students’ previous conceptions. The types of texts about ‘the cause of dinosaur extinction’ were developed; one that was based on students’ previous ideas, while the other was based on conflicting materials. The students’ responses to the conflict materials were classified into six types: rejection, reinterpretation, uncertainty, belief decrease, partial theory change, and conceptual change. These results show that the use of conflict materials does not always promote conceptual change. Therefore, teachers will be able to help students change their conceptions in science classrooms by understanding students’ various responses to conflict materials and designing instructional strategy concretely.

The main objectives of this study are (1) to identify the conflict types in IS integration process with respect to M&A, (2) to propose the ways to manage the origin of conflict to be expected, and (3) to develop the conflict management model which establishes the relationship among the M&A strategy, the IS integration strategy and change management process that influence the source of conflict. In order to achieve these research objectives, this study focuses on banking industry under M&A with the viewpoint of change management instead of existing technology-oriented IS integration strategy. The findings of this study are thought not only to be useful as a practical guideline in carrying out IS integration project under M&A but also to provide significant basis for constructing the theoretical framework of effective IS integration strategy.

This study examined the effects of teachers' DAP beliefs and teacher efficacy on the conflict resolution attitudes of teachers. The study was based on the survey data from 128 early childhood teachers working in day care centers in the Incheon area. The valuables were all measured by teachers. The collected data were analyzed by Manova and Logistic Regression. The main results of this study were as follows. Firstly, there was a significant difference in collaborating and avoiding types of conflict resolution attitudes according to only age among demographic variables. Secondly, teachers' DAP beliefs and teacher efficacy were positively related to the collaborating type but negatively related to avoiding and competing types of conflict resolution attitudes. Finally, teachers' DAP beliefs and teacher efficacy had positive effects on cooperative conflict resolution attitudes after controling for demographic variables. Our findings indicate that teachers' DAP beliefs and teacher efficacy have effects on their conflict resolution attitudes during preschoolers' peer conflicts.
