  • Purpose: This study compares differences in stress, depression and suicidal ideation between nursing and students of other academic disciplines. Method: Nursing students (n=105) and students of other majors (n=148) were surveyed on the degree of personal stress, depression and suicidal ideation. Participants were recruited from three universities in cities S and C in Korea. Data were collected from May 1 to 20, 2013. Measurement tools were the Revised Life Stress Scale for College Students, Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale(CES-D), and Scale for Suicide Ideation(SSI). PASW Statistics 18 was used for descriptive analysis, homogeneity test(chi-square distribution) and ANCOVA. Results: The level of stress among nursing students was lower than that of students in other majors. Among the subcategories of stress, however, stress among nursing students arising from the student-faculty relationship was higher than that of their non-nursing counterparts. Conversely, differences in the prevalence of depression were notsignificant between nursing students and non-nursing students. Ultimately, it was revealed that there exists a strong correlation among stress, depression and suicidal idea for nursing students. Conclusion: Developing stress and depression management programs for nursing students is highly recommended.

  • The thermal behavior, morphology, ester-interchange reaction of Poly(trimethylene terephthalate) (PTT)/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) melt blends were investigated over the whole composition range(xPTT/(1-x)PET) using a twinscrew Brabender. The melt blends were analyzed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy ($^{13}{C-NMR}$), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Single glass transition temperature ($T_g$) and cold crystallization temperature ($T_cc$) were observed in all melt blends. Melt blends were found to be due to the ester-interchange reaction in PTT/PET blend. Also the randomness of copolymer increases because transesterification between PT and PET increases with increasing blending time This reaction increases homogeneity of the blends and decreases the degree of crystallinity of the melt blends. In PTT-rich blends, mechanical properties decrease with increase of PET content compared with that of pure PTT. And, in PET-rich blends, tensile modulus decreases with increase of PTT content, but tensile strength and elongation is similar to that of pure PET.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to verify the effects of the Qigong training program on the anxiety and labor pains of primipara. Method: The research subjects were a total of 60 primipara who consulted a doctor regularly concerning their antenatal care. Among them, 30 people were the experimental group, and the other 30 people were the control group, and were selected as homogeneous with the experimental group. The degree of anxiety and labor pains were measured by State-Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI) and Graphic Rating Scale(GRS). SPSS WIN 11.0 was used for data analysis. Obstetric and general characteristics between experimental and control groups, and a homogeneity test of state and trait anxiety were done by both $X^2$ test and t-test. The hypothesis testing was analyzed by ANCOVA with a covariate of pretest value. Result: The first hypothesis, 'Primipara who join the Qigong training program have lower anxiety than those who do not join' was supported (F=28.8, p<.000). The second hypothesis, 'Primipara who join the Qigong training program have lower labor pain than those who do not join' was unsupported. Conclusion: It was verified that the Qigong training program was effective in alleviating anxiety; however it did not have any effect on relieving labor pain, so more in-depth research is needed later on.

  • In situ particle size and volume concentration of suspended sediment was measured at the mouth of Seomjin River Estuary In February 2001, using an optical instrument, 'LISST-100'. Time variation of in situ particle size and concentration shows: (1) during ebb tide, Seomjin River supplies relatively fine-grained particles with less-fluctuated, compared to during flood tide, and well-behaved concentrations following the tidal cycle; and (2) during flood tide, relatively coarse-grained particles with highly variable in size distribution and concentration flow upstream from Kwangyang Bay. This explains a poor correlation $(r^{2}=0.10)$ between sediment concentration and beam attenuation coefficient during flood and a high degree of correlation $(r^{2}=0.80)$ during ebb tide. Relatively fine grained and well defined, monotonous size distribution may promote the correlation between concentration and beam attenuation coefficient due to optical homogeneity of particles during ebb tide. Abundance of large aggregates with time-varying size and shape distributions may be mainly responsible for variations in optical properties of the sediment during flood tide, and thus may confound the relationship between the two variables. The difference in particle sizes and shapes between flood and ebb tides can also be observed on SEM images.

  • Most literature on the "comfort women" social movement focuses on the case of Korea. These works tend to transpose the meanings generated by South Korean organizations onto the transnational network, assuming certain homogeneity of repertoires and identities among the different social actors that comprise this network. Even though there is some degree of consensus about demands, repertoires, and advocacy strategies at the international level, does this same uniformity exist at the national level? In each country, what similarities and differences are present in the laboratories of ideas, relationships, and identities of social actors in the network? Symbolically and politically, do they challenge their respective societies in the same way? This article compares this social movement in South Korea, China, and Taiwan. My main argument is that the constitutive base for this transnational network is the domestic actions of these organizations. It is in the domestic sphere that these social actors reinforce their agendas, reinvent their repertoires, transform their identities, and expand their submerged networks, allowing national movements to retain their latency and autonomy. Following Melucci's relational approach to the study of social movements, this research is based on a qualitative analysis of institutional documents, participant observation, and open-ended interviews with members of the main social actors.

  • Serratia marcescen ATCC 25419 protease를 ammonium sulfate treatment, DEAE-cellulose anion exchange chromatography등의 방법으로 정제하였는데 최종 단계에서 667.5 unit/mg 이었으며 회수율은 43%이었고 448배 정제되었다. 정제한 S. marcescens protease로부터 아포효소를 만든 후 금속 재활성화에 대해 조사하였다. S. marcescens protease는 EDTA에 의해 완전히 활성을 잃는 metalloenzyme이며 Hg, Fe, Cu 등에 의해서 효소 활성을 70% 이상 잃은 반면, Co는 효소 활성을 약 20% 정도 증가시켰다. 아포효소의 재활성화는 pH 6~8에서 Mn, Co, Zn 등이 효과적이었다. Mn, Co, Zn등을 아포효소에 가하여 만든 효소들 중에서 Zn-효소는 효소 활성도, 알칼리-불활성화, 열-안정성 면에서 원래 protease와 유사하였다.

  • Debye temperature is an important thermodynamical factor in quantum dots (QDs); it can be used to determine the degree of homogeneity of a QD structure as well as to study the interdiffusion mechanism during growth. Direct estimation of the Debye temperature can be obtained using the Varshni relation. The Varshni relation is an empirical formula that can interpret the change of emission energy with temperature as a result of phonon interaction. On the other hand, phonons energy can be calculated using the Fan Expression. The Fan expression and Varshni relation are considered equivalent at a temperature higher than Debye temperature for InAs quantum dot. We investigated InAs quantum dot optically, the photoluminescence spectra and peak position dependency on temperature has been discussed. We applied a mathematical treatment using Fan expression, and the Varshni relation to obtain the Debye temperature and the phonon energy for InAs quantum dots sample. Debye temperature increase about double compared to bulk crystal. We concluded that the In/Ga interdiffusion during growth played a major role in altering the quantum dot thermodynamical parameters.

  • 광대역 주파수변조(wide-band FM) 선호를 음원으로 사용하는 Chirp sonar 시스템을 이용하여 획득한 음향반사 자료의 통계학적 처리를 통하여 해저면을 분류하였다. 음향학적 분류변수로서 Chirp 자료의 K-L(Karhunen-Lo$\grave{e}$ve) 변환을 이용하여 계산된 유사도 지수(similarity index)를 고안하였다. 유사도 지수는 근접한 트레이스 자료들에 포함된 공통된 반사신호성분의 양을 지시하므로 해저면 퇴적물의 성분에 따른 음향학적 거침도를 반영한다고 할 수 있다. 유사도 지수는 0에서 1사이의 값을 가지며, 각기 다른 퇴적상을 나타내는 지점에서 획득된 Chirp 자료를 처리한 결과, 퇴적물의 성분이 균질할수록, 입자의 크기가 작을수록, 그리고 연한 퇴적층일수록 증가하는 것을 관측할 수 있었다. 실제의 응용 예로서 제주도 성산포 해역을 이 방법으로 분류하였으며, 그 결과를 검증하기 위해 동일해역에서 획득된 side-scan sonar 자료 및 퇴적물로부터 해석된 해저면의 퇴적상과 비교하였다. 그 결과 음향자료의 유사도 지수에 의해 분류된 해저면은 실제의 퇴적상을 매우 잘 반영할 뿐만 아니라 퇴적물 성분의 특성에 따른 음향반응을 더욱 세밀히 나타내었다. 그러므로 이러한 방법은 음향자료로부터 직접 해저면을 분류하는 지질음향 모델링으로서 매우 효과적이다.

  • Tc-99m-MIBI 심근 SPECT에서 심근조직에 비하여 간섭취가 상대적으로 높고 이들이 서로 가까이에 위치해 있는 경우 단축단면상의 하위부 또는 하위중격부에서 발생하는 인위적 관류결손의 정도와 여과기의 차단주파수의 관계를 분석하였다. 이러한 영향은 단축단면상 뿐만 아니라 심근 극성지도에서도 관찰되는데, 심근단층상에서 계수분포가 균일하지 못하고 간과 같이 특정부위에 방사능의 집적도가 높은 경우 단층상 재구성시 차단 파수의 적절한 설정에 따라 이 효과를 줄일 수 있는 방법을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 분석에 사용된 여과기는 저역통과여과기로 이를 사용하는 경우에는 차단주파수를 0.4Nyquist 이상으로 하면 인위적 관류결손의 정도를 충분히 줄일 수 있었다. 그러나 높은 차단주파수에서는 심근영상의 균일도가 떨어지고 배후방사능 및 기타 잡음요인이 효과적으로 제거되지 않기 때문에 적절한 차단주파수의 설정이 중요하며, 본 연구에 사용된 영상에서 여과방법에 따른 원주프로필의 변화가 미세하여 후처리방법을 사용하여 분석하였다. 또한 역투사방법이 비선형적이므로 특정 영상보다는 다양한 간-심근 방사능비에 따른 영상을 분석하여 비선형성을 배제한 연구가 향후 진행되어야 한다.

  • This Meta-Analysis of 18 studies was conducted to determine the magnitude of th relationship between health promotion behavior and each of explanatory variables. The studies were measured using Health Promoting Life Style(HPLP) developed by Walker and others based on Pender's definiton of health promoting behavior. The sample was collected by searching for The Journal of Korean Academy Nursing Society, The Journal of Korean Women's Health Nursing Academic Society,The Journal of Korean Academic Society of Adult Nursing, Journal of Korean Community Nursing, The Journal of Fundamentals of Nursing, The Journal of Korean Nursing Administration Academic Society, The Korean Journal of Child Health Nursing, The Journal of Korean Psychiatric Academic Society, the dissertations for mater degree or doctoral dissertations for the period from 1980 to 1998. The explanatory variables measured more than 2 times in studies were self-efficacy, perceived health status, self-esteem, internal, powerful-others and chance dimensions of health locus of control, perceived benefits, hardiness, wellbeing and clinical demensions of health concepts, and quality of life(life satisfaction). Effect sizes were calculated by unweighted mean r, weighted mean r by sample size and weighted mean r by quality index score after homogeneity test. The mean r effect size indicator range of each predictor variable were as follows; quality of life (0.50- 0.52), self-efficacy (0.46-0.47), hardiness (0.42-0.44), self-esteem(0.41-0.43), health locus of control- internal(0.32-0.34), health locus of control- powerful others (0.25-0.31), perceived health status(0.18-0.19) and clinical dimensions of health concepts (0.16-0.17).
