This study investigates ethical fashion consumption factors and corporate social responsibility (CSR) factors to segment consumer groups by ethical fashion consumption (EFC) and identify differences of EFC groups in the perception of CSR and demographics. I surveyed 390 people over age 20 in February and March, 2017. Data were analyzed with factorial analysis, cluster analysis, ANOVA, LSD, Chi-square, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, using SPSS 20.0. The survey showed. 1) Five EFC factors (boycott/active purchase, donation/environmental protection, saving, legal consumption, and recycle) were extracted. 2) Four CSR factors (responsibility for stakeholder, ethical/environmental responsibility, social/charitable responsibility, and economic responsibility) were extracted. 3) EFC consumers were classified into four segments (low ethic, recycle, legal, and high ethic). 4) The perception of CSR factors was different among EFC groups. 5) The distribution of age level, education level, occupation, monthly purchase cost of clothing, and religion were different among EFC groups.

In this article the relations between demographics, variables related to credit card, flow and compulsive buying tendency were explored. The survey data collected from 318 university students. The results of regression analysis showed that older students were related to the greater number of card. The greater allowance and number of card were related to the greater average card expenditure per month. Female, younger and the greater average card expenditure per month were related to greater flow. And younger students tended to be more compulsive buying tendency than older students. The greater allowance and flow were related to greater compulsive buying tendency. The results of path analysis showed that the age, allowance and flow influenced on compulsive buying tendency direct. Also age and allowance influenced on compulsive buying tendency direct and indirect.

The purposes of this study are to provide comprehensive reviews on multichannel consumer behaviors published in peer-reviewed academic journals from 2005 to 2014, to develop a conceptual framework that demonstrates multichannel determinants such as psychographics, demographics, social influences, and situational factors on consumers' search and purchase behavior based on customers' profits or costs judgment, and to provide possible direction for future research in multichannel consumer behavior. Three steps were taken in the process of analyzing consumers' channel determinants presented in the 37 studies, and 12 most frequently used factors that appear in the studies were extracted. These factors include convenience, service, trust/risk, saving money, product knowledge, experience, efficacy/usefulness, involvement, shopping environment/situation factors, demographics, product types, and social influence. With 12 determinants of multichannel consumers' search and purchase behavior, a conceptual framework was proposed based on expectancy theory. The directions for future research were also discussed.

User preferences and ratings may be anticipated by recommendation systems, which are widely used in social networking, online shopping, healthcare, and even energy efficiency. Constructing trustworthy recommender systems for various applications, requires the analysis and mining of vast quantities of user data, including demographics. This study focuses on holding elections with vague voter and candidate preferences. Collaborative user ratings are used by filtering algorithms to provide suggestions. To avoid information overload, consumers are directed towards items that they are more likely to prefer based on the profile data used by recommender systems. Better interactions between governments, residents, and businesses may result from studies on recommender systems that facilitate the use of e-government services. To broaden people's access to the democratic process, the concept of "e-democracy" applies new media technologies. This study provides a framework for an electronic voting advisory system that uses machine learning.

Background: Patients' demographics, presenting clinical and histopathological features for colo-rectal cancer (CRC) are important factors for patients' outcome and disease prognosis. This study aimed to describe the pattern of CRC in terms of patients' demographics, main presenting symptoms and histopathological features in Al Hassa region of Saudi Arabia. Subjects and Methods: A retrospective hospital records-based study which included reviewing of patients' records diagnosed with CRC at three general hospitals in Al Hassa region, Saudi Arabia. A compilation form was designed to collect information regarding socio-demographics, age at diagnosis; referral sites and the main presentations at CRC diagnosis. sites and the main presentations at CRC diagnosis. Histopathological reports were reviewed to delineate the main cytopathologic features, prominent cytological characteristics, the presence of predisposing pathology, and disease stage. Results: Of the 142 cases with CRC, 15.5% and 33.1% were affected before 40 and 50 years of age respectively. Emergency rooms were main referral sites for CRC cases (31.0%). Right colon was affected in 16.9% while left colonic lesions accounted for 62.7%. Intestinal obstruction was the main presentations (41.5%), and 26.1% presented with symptoms indicating distant metastastic lesions. Adenocarcinoma was the predominant pathological lesions (86.6%). Metastastic CRC was diagnosed in 62.7%. Duke's staging showed that 22.5% and 40.1% of lesions were classified into C and D categories respectively. Conclusion: Saudi patients with CRC present late with distant metastasis, and advanced disease stage. A sizeable proportion of patients developed the lesions at relatively young age. Screening recommendations should be enacted and revised in response to current change with younger age of affection.

가족은 관광시장의 기초적 소비자를 구성하고 있는데, 가족의 특성은 가족관광 형태에 커다란 영향을 미친다. 그러므로 가족의 특성이 가족관광 참여에 미치는 영향을 보다 잘 이해하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 그러나 국내에서는 가족관광 참여에 대한 연구가 거의 이루어지지 않았다. 본 연구는 2011년 국민여행 실태조사 자료를 이용하여 우리나라 가구의 인구통계적 특성별 국내 가족관광 참여에 대해 실증적 분석을 실시하고 국내관광 활성화를 위한 시사점을 도출하는데 목적이 있다. 분석 결과 가족의 거주지역 규모에 따라 연간 국내 가족관광 일수와 지출액에는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 가족의 소득과 동거 가구원 수에 따라 연간 국내 가족관광 횟수 일수 지출액에는 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

Dietary life was formed as being influenced by the people's cultural, social and environmental situations. The people's food culture is unique that was adapted to their surroundings. It was developed and industrialized in the ethnic food. Now the ethnic food was contributed to tour industry or culture industry. Then, food life style was change from the meat diet to the vegetable diet in the diffusion of well-being trends. So, we analyzed Koreans' Korean food image and investigated the difference as a demographics. We made questionnaire and did a survey to 220 bloggers using cooking internet sites on 10 August, 2009. We analyzed 206 questionnaires by SPSS package 12.0 except 14 untrustworthy questionnaires. We measured credibility and validity 39 items related Korean food image: Chronbach's ${\alpha}$ was highly 0.855. We checked that KMO examination was 0.775 and $x^2$ of Barttlet was 2482.342. After verymax rotation, we deducted 5 Koran food images-healthy, visuality, spicy, variety, low calorie. We analyzed ANOVA of 5 Korean food images according to demographics. We confirmed the differences by ages, monthly income and job except academic background (p<0.05). Therefore, Korean food images were learned and recognized in everyday life. Especially, we found that visuality and variety were recognized the more stronger high-income earners and teachers than others. So, Korean learned Korean food images in real life and recognized Korean food quite differently by demographics.

Purpose: This study aims to compare patients in whom fixation failure occurred via cut-out (CO) or cut-through (CT) in order to determine patient factors and radiographic parameters that may be predictive of each mechanism. Materials and Methods: This retrospective cohort study includes 18 patients with intertrochanteric (IT) hip fractures (AO/OTA classification 31A1.3) who underwent treatment using a single lag screw design intramedullary nail in whom fixation failure occurred within one year. All patients were reviewed for demographics and radiographic parameters including tip-to-apex distance (TAD), posteromedial calcar continuity, neck-shaft angle, lateral wall thickness, and others. Patients were grouped into cohorts based on the mechanism of failure, either lag screw CO or CT, and a comparison was performed. Results: No differences in demographics, injury details, fracture classifications, or radiographic parameters were observed between CO/CT cohorts. Of note, a similar rate of post-reduction TAD>25 mm (P=0.936) was observed between groups. A higher rate of DEXA (dual energy X-ray absorptiometry) confirmed osteoporosis (25.0% vs. 60.0%) was observed in the CT group, but without significance. Conclusion: The mechanism of CT failure during intramedullary nail fixation of an IT fracture did not show an association with clinical data including patient demographics, reduction accuracy, or radiographic parameters. As reported in previous biomechanical studies, the main predictive factor for patients in whom early failure might occur via the CT effect mechanism may be related to bone quality; however, conduct of larger studies will be required in order to determine whether there is a difference in bone quality.

One of the largest and fastest growing segments of the tourism industry, sport tourism refers to travel to play sports, watch sports, or to visit a sport attraction including both competitive and non-competitive activities. In this respect, cycling can be considered as not only a form of physical exercise but also a form of tourism in which cycling is a usual tourism-related activity, heading to a particular destination. The purpose of this study is to examine how demographical differences of cycle tourists are related to the quality of their life. An online survey was conducted and data was analyzed using frequency, reliability, and one - way ANOVA using SPSS 22.0. First, we found that there was no significant difference on the quality of physical life based on demographical characteristics. Second, the analysis of the relationship between demographical characteristics and the quality of mental life showed that income level affects their quality of mental life. Third, the analysis of the relationship between socio demographic characteristics and the quality of social life showed that marital status affects the quality of social life. Fourth, no statistically significant difference was found between the demographical characteristics and the quality of environmental life. Further implications were discussed.
