The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze the effect of cultural distance between partner firms on international joint venture performance, focusing on the moderating effects of the conflict resolution techniques and the competitive relationship between partner firms. We tested hypotheses based on joint venture firms that were surveyed which formed by equity investment between Korean and foreign firms in the manufacturing industry. The empirical analysis results of this study are as follows. First, in international joint ventures, the cultural distance between partner firms was found to have a negative effect on the international joint venture performance, and the higher the cultural distance, the lower the joint venture performance. Second, it was found that constructive conflict resolution techniques weaken the negative impact of the cultural distance between partner firms in international joint ventures on the performance of international joint ventures. Third, competitive relationship between international joint venture partners showed no moderating effect on the relationship between cultural distance and international joint venture performance.

The intraclass correlation model has a long history of applications in several fields of research. Case deletion diagnostic methods for the intraclass correlation model are proposed. Based on the likelihood equations, we derive a formula for a case deletion diagnostic method which enables us to investigate the influence of observations on the maximum likelihood estimates of the model parameters. Using the Taylor series expansion we develop an approximation to the likelihood distance. Numerical examples are provided for illustration.

In this paper, we discuss and review various measures which have been presented for studying outliers, high-leverage points, and influential observations when ridge regression estimation is adopted. We derive the influence function for ${\underline{\hat{\beta}}}\small{R}$, the ridge regression estimator, and discuss its various finite sample approximations when ridge regression is postulated. We also study several diagnostic measures such as Welsh-Kuh's distance, Cook's distance etc.

Background: The purpose of this study was to find out influence of using portable mobile devices in human body. Method: The subjects were consisted of the normal persons (19 males and 20 females). These subjects were consisted of three groups according to test time. The A group (12 persons - 6 males, 6 females) tests 5 minutes, the B group (14 persons - 7 males, 7 females) tests 10 minutes, and the C group (13 persons - 6 males, 7 females) tests 15 minutes. Before test, sight, quickness and balance were measured, after test revision, quickness, balance were measured and checked pain scale. Results: The results were as follows. 1. Sight, quickness and balance were decreased and pains were increased after using portable mobile devices than before using these. 2. According to duration of using the portable mobile devices, sight, quickness and balance was not a statistically significant difference, the entire upper body pain was a statistically significant difference. When viewed as part of the pain, shoulder, lower back, and wrist pain were a statistically significant difference, but the neck and elbow were not a statistically significant difference. 3. The influence of vision according to distance of using Portable mobile devices was no statistically significant difference. In addition, less than 20cm distance using equipment group ("Ga") and the group ("Na") which exceeded 20cm in between the sight were not statistically significant difference, Influence of pain according to distance of using Portable mobile devices we-re no statistically significant differences. Conclusion: Using portable mobile devices affect human body on the elements of the biomechanics.

Recently, the productivity of drug discovery has gradually decreased as the limitations of single-target-based drugs for various and complex diseases become exposed. To overcome these limitations, drug combinations have been proposed, and great efforts have been made to predict efficacious drug combinations by statistical methods using drug databases. However, previous methods which did not take into account biological networks are insufficient for elaborate predictions. Also, increased evidences to support the fact that drug effects are closely related to metabolic enzymes suggested the possibility for a new approach to the study drug combinations. Therefore, in this paper we suggest a novel approach for analyzing drug combinations using a metabolic network in a systematic manner. The influence of a drug on the metabolic network is described using the distance between the drug target and an enzyme. Target-enzyme distances are converted into influence scores, and from these scores we calculated the correlations between drugs. The result shows that the influence score derived from the targetenzyme distance reflects the mechanism of drug action onto the metabolic network properly. In an analysis of the correlation score distribution, efficacious drug combinations tended to have low correlation scores, and this tendency corresponded to the known properties of the drug combinations. These facts suggest that our approach is useful for prediction drug combinations with an advanced understanding of drug mechanisms.

In general, based on criteria of subway law, radius 500m from subway station is defined as SIA (Subway Station Influence Area). Therefore, in this paper, selection models of SIA are developed to identify appropriate SIA for specific legions in Seoul metropolitan city based on CHAID analysis. As a result, following outputs are obtained; (1) walking distance from subway station is the most influential factor to define SIA (2) SIAs vary with regions (i. e. Gangnam area: 767m, Gangbuk area: 452m), and (3) walking distance from subway station is influential to land price of SIA. In addition, in Gangnam, the structure of land price of the closest section has a polynomial trend curve rather than linear compared in comparison with other sections. Therefore, it is desirable for current definition of SIA (radius 500m from subway station) to be redefined to reflect characteristics of land use and walking distance according to each region respectively.

This study explored the structural relationship between achievement goal orientation, learning motivation, and level of interest on the level of flow in distance PBL classes. A structural model was constructed through analysis of previous studies. Data for the verification of the structural model were collected from 59 students in the teaching courses. The study took PBL lessons remotely. After the PBL class was ended, flow, achievement goal orientation, learning motivation, and level of interest were measured. The collected data were analyzed using the structural equation model analysis method. As a result, the structural model proposed in this study was verified to be valid. It was verified that the level of interest mediated the influence of achievement goal orientation and learning motivation to influence commitment. Next, it was verified that the path through which the level of interest mediates the effect of achievement goal orientation has the greatest influence. Therefore, it is possible to suggest that the level of flow can be adjusted if the level of interest is adjusted in consideration of the achievement goal orientation of learners when operating distance PBL classes.

This research has the purpose to develop a method to evaluate whether station’s area of influence has been formed, and verify formation of the area of influence through empirical analysis of all subway stations in Seoul. First, we created buffers of 100m intervals from 100m to 1000m, based on subway station exits, calculated the average land price of each buffer, and divided station areas of influence into 10 clusters using K-means clustering with the average land prices as values of observation. Subsequently, we have assumed a decreasing price curve from increasing distance from a nearby subway station, estimated a price curve and evaluated whether the area of influence actually exists using regression analysis of each cluster. The 10 area of influence clusters were largely divided into strong, weak, and no area of influence of subway station. The stations where the strong areas of influence are formed are mainly located in center, sub-centers, and local centers; stations where weak and no areas of influence are formed are mostly located in the adjacent areas of center or sub-centers or suburbs.

The purpose of this study was to identify the moderated effects of multicultural contact experience on the relationship between social distance and multicultural acceptability among nursing students. The sample for this study consisted of 174 nursing students from four universities located in Korea. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, $Scheff{\acute{e}}$ test, Pearson correlation and hierarchical multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 23.0. It was found that: (a) multicultural acceptability had a negative correlation with social distance(r=-.61, p<.001), whereas a positive correlation was observed with experience of multicultural contact(r=.24, p=.002); (b) the interaction effect by multicultural contact experience and social distance had a significant influence on the multicultural acceptability(${\beta}=-.18$, p=.003); (c) experience of multicultural contact moderated the relationship between social distance and multicultural acceptability(${\Delta}R^2=0.30$, p=.003). Results of the study suggest that the greater the experience of multicultural contact, the greater the negative effect of social distance on multicultural acceptability. Therefore, to increase the multicultural acceptability of nursing students, it is important to encourage the positive experiences of multicultural contact and thus reduce social distance.
