Purpose: This study aimed to develop and examine the effects of a psychosocial adaptation program for North Korean adolescent defectors. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was conducted with 28 North Korean adolescent defectors who were recruited through alternative schools. The experimental and control groups consisted of 14 participants each. A program was conducted across eight sessions, each lasting about 90-120 minutes. The data were analyzed using the x² test, t-test, paired t-test, and analysis of covariance. Results: No significant differences were observed in the score changes for psychosocial adaptation (t=0.25, p=.808), post-traumatic stress symptoms (t=0.32, p=.749), cultural adaptation stress (t=0.05, p=.957), and self-efficacy (t=0.35, p=.726) in either group before and after the intervention. No intergroup differences were observed for psychosocial adaptation (t=0.12, p=.902), post-traumatic stress symptoms (t=0.07, p=.946), cultural adaptation stress (t=0.01, p=.994), and self-efficacy (t=0.58, p=.570). Conclusion: These findings suggest that psychosocial adaptation, stress, and self-efficacy cannot be improved by a short-term intervention program alone. It was also determined that the cultural characteristics of the North Korean adolescent defectors were not sufficiently considered before implementing the program. Therefore, it is essential to provide an in-depth orientation for the participants before implementing the program.

Objectives: Eating self-efficacy is an important predictor of successful weight control behaviors during obesity treatment. The Weight Efficacy Life-Style Questionnaire (WEL) is an internationally used measure of eating self-efficacy. The objective of this study was to develop the Korean version of WEL (K-WEL) and verify face validity. Methods: According to previously published guidelines, the cross-cultural translation was conducted through organizing the expert committee, translation, back-translation, synthesis, grammar review, and final synthesis. Following the translation of the WEL into Korean, face validity was performed for 35 subjects. Results: After all the versions of the questionnaire were examined, the translated WEL questionnaires were finally synthesized and licensed by the developer in writing. Regarding the translated WEL questionnaires, seven out of 35 subjects (20%) offered ideas about ambiguous expressions in them. All four points indicated in the face validity verification were additionally modified for greater clarity and understanding. Conclusions: We developed the Korean version of WEL and completed face validity. In future research, it would be necessary to provide further study on the reliability and validity of the Korean version of WEL.

Social credit rating in China (SCRC) has been criticized as "dystopian" and "Orwellian," an attempt by the Communist Party to hold onto power by exerting ever greater control over its citizens. To explain such measures, value differences are often invoked, that Chinese value stability and cooperation over privacy and freedom. However, these explanations are oversimplifications that result in ethical impasses. This article argues social credit rating should be understood in terms of the commonly human problem of large-scale cooperation. To do so, this paper relies on a cultural evolutionary framework and is an exercise in interpretive pros hen ethical pluralism, attempting to understand how apparently irresolvable cultural differences stem from common human concerns. Wholesale condemnation of SCRC fails to acknowledge the serious, intractable nature of problems resulting from a lack of trust in China. They take for granted the existence of institutions ensuring largescale, anonymous cooperation characteristic of - but somewhat unique to - Western Educated Industrialized Rich and Democratic (WEIRD) cultures. Because of its history and rapid development, China lacks the institutions necessary to ensure such cooperation, and because of anti-social punishment, social credit rating might be one of the few ways to ensure cooperation at this scale. The point is not to defend social credit rating in general, but to raise the possibility of its defense in China and show one way this would be done.

본 연구는 공간구문론(Space syntax)을 이용하여 조선 후기에 제작된 <동궐도(東闕圖)>의 판장의 설치에 따른 주요 권역별 공간변화를 비교하여 판장의 공간분할 기능과 역할을 재해석하였다. 연구방법으로는 <동궐도>의 공간을 단위 공간으로 분해하기 위한 설정 기준을 마련하였고, 판장의 설치 전·후에 따라 2개의 볼록공간도를 작성해 공간구문변수인 연결도, 통제도, 통합도 값을 산출하여 비교분석하였다. 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, <동궐도> 내 가림시설은 전각공간에 대한 변수의 평균값을 비교하였을 때, 동궐의 전체적인 배치에서 통제와 연결은 영향이 크지 않았다. 다만 특정 권역 내 공간의 접근성 측면에서 영향을 주었다. 가림시설이 집중적으로 설치된 내전과 동궁 그리고 후원으로 이동할 수 있는 공간을 중심으로 이동과 접근에 제한을 주었다. 둘째, 판장은 내전과 동궁에 집중적으로 분포되어 공간의 활용방식에 적극적으로 이용된 시설로 판장의 설치에 따른 공간의 특성이 뚜렷하게 나타났으며 기능에서도 차이가 확인되었다. 내전의 수정전 권역과 희정당 권역 그리고 동궁의 성정각 권역에 판장을 설치함으로써 개방적이고 통제성이 높았던 공간이 통제성이 낮은 폐쇄적인 공간으로 변모하였고 사적인 공간이 조성되었다. 동궁의 완영당 권역은 판장을 여러 방향으로 설치함으로써 공간의 깊이를 증가시켰다. 이는 거쳐서 오는 공간의 수가 증가됨으로써 자유롭고 은신이 가능한 공간이 조성되었다. 셋째, 판장은 기존 선행연구에서 밝혔던 '시선차단·공간분리·동선조절'의 기능 이외에 '접근통제가 용이한 공간'을 조성하였다. 일정한 공간으로 유도함과 동시에 동선이 집중됨에 따라 접근 통제가 가능한 공간이 되었으며, 판장의 개수와 배치에 따라 집중형 통제공간과 분산형 통제공간을 조성하였다. 본 연구는 그 간 가림시설의 기능과 역할에 대한 연구 외에 판장에 대한 기능을 수학적 모델로 분석하여 특정 공간속에서 판장이 어떠한 양상으로 공간을 통제하였는지 수치적으로 확인하였고, 공간의 통제와 연결, 은신과 개방성 등의 해석으로 연구의 방법을 확장한 것에 의의가 있다. 또한 연구의 방법론이었던 공간구문론을 <동궐도>에 적용하기 위해 궁궐의 건축 및 조경요소의 단위공간 분할 및 연결 유형에 따른 기준을 마련함으로써 궁궐과 유사한 전통주거단지에서도 적용이 가능한 분석툴을 마련하였다는 점에서 가치가 있다. 그러나 공간구문론의 분석을 통해 결과적으로 제공되는 것은 공간조직이 가지는 구성적 특질을 표현하는 숫자들로 제한된 체계 내에서만 의미를 가진다는 한계가 있다.

Wooden structures in Korea are usually damaged by some insects such as termites, wasps, cigarette beetles, powder-post beetles. Especially, the termites inhabiting in Korea are the subterranean termites, Reticulitermes speratus kyushuensis Morimoto, that make colonies in underground, therefore it is difficult to predict and control substantial infestations in advance. Accordingly, to enable inspectors to locate the termite infestations before the extensive damage occurs, the pest management industry has begun using several elaborate tools and making the various effect to inspect areas hard to access through a visual inspection. Recently detector dogs were adopted as one of those tools. Detector dogs are useful for locating subterranean termites because they use their acute olfaction rather than vision. We also have used detector dogs to locate termites and investigated 270 buildings from 31 sites since 2007. According to the results, while 144 buildings (53.4%) were in good condition with no damage by termites, 80 buildings (29.6%) were found out to be damaged by termites through visual inspection and detector dog. So it is expected to control termites according to the conservation status if detector dogs are well trained to discriminate live termites from fecal pellets by termites.

The objectives of this study were to research the power structure of the conjugal decision making process between husbands and wives and how to go about analyzing these processes. Furthermore, to statistically survey the similarities the differences of these between the Japanese and Korean cultures. The subjects of the study were women over the age of 20. The Korean wives resided in Taegu, the Japanese wives in Kobe. The questionnaire destributed to these subjects was bi-lingual in both Korean and Japanese. The data results are as follows : The frequency of negotiation was highest when the wife conceived an idealistic balance in the magnitude of authority arld control between she and her husband. On average, those wives who make decisions their husbands through negotiation do not have as high of a magnitude of control and authority as their husbands. These women idealistically believe that a balance of magnitude and authority exists between them and their husbands. On the other hand, in relationships where decisions are made without negotiation, the magnitude of the wife's authority increases as she idealistically perceives herself as being more powerful than her husband.

This study investigated the cross-cultural differences in temperament among Chinese, Korean-Chinese, and Korean children. Subjects were 1,046(258 Korean-Chinese, 290 Chinese, and 498 Korean) 4th graders from Yanji in China and Seoul and Ulsan in Korea. The short form of the Early Adolescent Temperament Questionnaire Scale-Revised containing 10 scales of 54 items was translated into Korean for Korean and Korean-Chinese children and into Chinese for Chinese children and was administered to children via home-room teachers. Chinese children rated themselves higher on activation control, attention, and pleasure- and perceptual-sensitivity subscales than other groups. On the contrary, Chinese-Korean children rated themselves higher on the affiliation subscale and Korean children rated themselves higher on the aggression subscale than other groups. There were larger gender differences among Chinese and Korean-Chinese than among Korean children: Gender difference was found in activation control, aggression, and attention subscales among Chinese children and in affiliation, aggression, attention and fear subscales among Korean-Chinese. There was only significant difference in pleasure sensitivity among Korean. Rapid westernization in Korea seems to be responsible for this result. Since there were significant differences of temperament between Korean and Korean-Chinese, and between Chinese and Korean-Chinese, it was interpreted that children's temperament is influenced by both their environment and genetic endowment.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify factors (biological, psychological, interpersonal, and contextual factors) associated with the weight bias internalization of the Korean girls in early adolescence. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design. Data was collected from 233 girls aged 12~14 years with a self-reported questionnaire. With multiple regression analysis, the factors associated with the weight bias internalization of the girls in early adolescence were analyzed. Results: Of psychosocial factors, fear to fat (anti-fat attitude) (β=.43, p<.001) was associated with the weight bias internalization of the girls in early adolescence. In addition, attachment with teachers (β=-.11, p=.029) of an interpersonal factor and perceived socio-cultural pressure regarding weight control (β=.34, p<.001) of a contextual factor were associated with the weight bias internalization of the girls in early adolescence. Conclusion: For releasing the weight bias internalization of the girls in early adolescence, decreasing anti-fat attitude and socio-cultural pressure regarding weight control should be primarily required through social efforts including community and school based interventions.

참다래 과수원에서 환상박피와 비가림시설은 꽃썩음병을 효과적으로 경감시켜주는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 참다래 개화기 약 45일 전인 4월 10일경에 참다래 주간부위에 20${\sim}$30 mm 폭으로 환상박피를 하면 꽃썩음병을 효과적으로 예방할 수 있었는데, 주간부위의 환상박피 높이는 방제효과에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 비닐을 이용한 비가림시설은 파풍망시설보다 비가림방식에 관계없이 꽃썩음병 예방에 효과적이었다. 참다래 개화기 약 75일 전인 3월 10일경에 부분비닐피복식 비가림시설을 하면 참다래 꽃썩음병의 발생을 거의 완벽하게 방제할 수 있었다. 환상박피와 부분비닐피복식 비가림시설은 참다래 과수원에서 환경친화적인 꽃썩음병 방제방법으로 실용화할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
