This study investigates convergent influence on TOEIC learning flow and its association with self efficacy, academic control and school resilience among health college students. Data collection was carried out using a self-administered questionnaire from May 1 to May 29, 2018 and the target was randomly selected 255 health college students in TOEIC class from college located in J city. TOEIC learning flow was positively correlated with self efficacy, academic control and school resilience. With the analysis of covariance structure, we could confirm relationship among self efficacy, academic control, school resilience and TOEIC learning flow. School resilience was more influential on TOEIC learning flow than self efficacy and academic control. The results of the study indicate that the efforts to manage these factors are required to increase TOEIC learning flow of health college students in TOEIC class. The results are expected to be used to develop TOEIC learning curriculum increasing the TOEIC learning flow among health college students in TOEIC class.

In this paper, we attempt to investigate the moderating effect of brand power on the effect of in-flight service quality on customer satisfaction and recommendation in the aviation industry. The results were as follows. First, in the case of high brand power FSC(full service carriers), the cost-to-benefit ratio as well as all other flight service properties influence to customer satisfaction. However, in the case of low brand power FSC, the cost-to-benefit ratio showed a greater impact of customer satisfaction compared to other in-flight services. Second, as in the case of customer satisfaction, while the cost-to-benefit ratio more influence to customer recommendation than other in-flight services in low brand power FSC, the cost-to-benefit ratio as well as all other flight service properties influence to customer recommendation together in high brand power FSC. Therefore, low brand power FSC required tit-for-tat strategy against to LCC(low cost carriers) by pursuing disruptive innovation for price. And high brand power FSC required sustaining innovation strategy through improving flight services.

Background: It is not clear whether ginseng affects cyclosporine A (CsA)-induced desirable immunosuppressive action. In this study, we evaluated the immunological influence of combined treatment of ginseng with CsA. Methods: Using CD4+ T cells from mouse spleens stimulated with the T cell receptor (TCR) or allogeneic antigen-presenting cells (APCs), we examined the differentiation of naïve T cells into T helper 1 (Th1), Th2, Th17, and regulatory T cells (Tregs), and their cytokine production during treatment by Korean Red Ginseng extract (KRGE) and/or CsA. The influence of KRGE on the allogeneic T cell response was evaluated by mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). We also evaluated whether signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and STAT5 are implicated in this regulation. Results: Under TCR stimulation, KRGE treatment did not affect the population of CD4+interferon gamma ($IFN{\gamma}$)+ and CD4+interleukin (IL)-4+ cells and their cytokine production compared with CsA alone. Under the Th17-polarizing condition, KRGE significantly reduced the number of CD4+IL-17+ cells and CD4+/phosphorylated STAT3 (p-STAT3)+ cells, but increased the number of CD4+CD25+forkhead box P3 (Foxp3)+ cells and CD4+/p-STAT5+ cells compared with CsA alone. In allogeneic APCs-stimulated CD4+ T cells, KRGE significantly decreased total allogeneic T cell proliferation. Consistent with the effects of TCR stimulation, KRGE reduced the number of CD4+IL-17+ cells and increased the number of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ cells under the Th17-polarizing condition. Conclusion: KRGE has immunological benefits through the reciprocal regulation of Th17 and Treg cells during CsA-induced immunosuppression.

The study analyzed convergent influence on occupational stress(KOSS-SF: Korean Occupational Stress Scale-Short Form) and its association with Organizational Justice(OJ), Self Esteem(RSE :Rosenberg Self-Esreem) and Self Efficacy(GSE: Generalized Self-Efficacy) among some regional General Hospital Administrative Staff(GHAS). The survey was administered to 221 staff from 11 general hospitals located in J city from Nov. 1st, 2016 to Jan. 31st, 2017, by structured self-administered questionaries. Occupational stress was negatively correlated with two sub-domains of OJ, RES and GSE. With the analysis of covariance structure, we identified the causal relationship of OJ, RES, GSE and occupational stress among GHAS. The study found the higher OJ, RES and GSE tend to decrease occupational stress. The results indicate that the efforts, to increase OJ, RSE and GSE, are required to decrease the occupational stress of GHAS. The results are expected to be useful for organization & HR management to decrease the occupational stress of GHAS. In the following study, the analysis about convergent additional factors of influence on occupational stress of GHAS will be needed.
