The purpose of this study is to find the main factor which influences the housing satisfaction of elderly who lives alone or with spouse and to make it sure that housing satisfaction is an important factor to life satisfaction of elderly. The specific purpose of this study is as follows; 1) How does the locus of control of elderly influence a housing satisfaction\ulcorner 2) How does the housing characteristics of elderly influence on the housing satisfaction and this relationship has any difference between urban and rural area. 3) Which variables influence upon the housing satisfaction and life satisfaction of elderly and how much do they influence \ulcorner The locus of control scale, housing satisfaction scale. life satisfaction scale were composed on the basis of precedent researches. For this study 202 elderly sho live in urban and rural area ere interviewed. To analyze the data, such as F-test, t-test, two-way ANOVA, Multiple regression analysis were used with SPSS program. The results are as follows; 1) The interrelation between locus of control and housing satisfaction is as follows. Namely , if he believes in his deeds and will rater than his fate, he feels more housing satisfaction. 2)the housing satisfaction of the elderly was found to be influenced by location, Namely, the elderly living in the urban area feels more housing satisfaction, especially he lives in apartment and unshared house. On the contrary, the elderly living in the rural area was not affected by housing type and the number of household who live together, The housing satisfaction of the elderly living in the rural area or the urban area equally influenced by the housing tenure, heating system, bathroom facility, flush toilet, and convenient service form the outside. 3) The main factoers which influence the housing satisfaction of the single household elderly are bathroom facility louse of control and income. When we concern about the location in urban area the housing satisfaction of the elderly were mainly influenced by income, but in the rural area, they were influenced by the service facility from the outside. As a Conclusion, the main factor which influenced life satisfaction of the elderly proved to be housing satisfaction inn both rural and urban area.

Eight cDNAs corresponding to fruit-specific genes were isolated from ripened melon through differential screening. Sequence comparison indicated that six of these cDNAs encoded proteins were previously characterized into aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase, abscisic acid, stress and ripening inducible (ASR) gene, RINC-H2 zinc finger protein, pyruvate decarboxylase, or polyubiquitin. RFS2 and RFS5 were the same clone encoding polyubiquitin. The other cDNAs showed no significant homology with known protein sequences. The ASR homologue (Asr1) gene was further characterized on the cDNA and genomic structure. The deduced amino acid sequence had similar characteristics to other plant ASR. The Asr1 genomic DNA consisted of 2 exons and 1 intron, which is similar to the structure of other plants ASR genes. The promoter region of the Asr1 gene contained several putative functional cis-elements such as an abscisic acid responsive element (ABRE), an ethylene responsive element (ERE), a C-box or DPBf-1 and 2, Myb binding sites, a low temperature responsive element (LTRE) and a metal responsive element (MRE). The findings imply that these elements may play important roles in the response to plant hormones and environmental stresses in the process of fruit development. The results of this study suggest that the expressions of fruit specific and ripening-related cDNAs are closely associated with the stress response.

Objectives: Valid data on the national cancer incidence (NCI) is the data should be needed to plan, monitor and evaluate the national cancer control programs. The purpose of this study was to estimate the NCI for 2000-2002 from 8 population-based cancer registries database in Korea (KRCR DB). Methods: We defined the expected number of cancer cases in each registry as the number of observed cases and then adding to the weighted observed cases, according to sex, age groups, and the proportion of the population covered by each registry for the population of the eight regions and the population of all areas with excluding the 8 regions. From the expected number of total cancer incidents, he estimated NCI was calculated by dividing the expected number of cancer cases by he umber of the total population. The standard error (SE) of the estimated incidence was also taken from the expected number of total cancer incidents. Results: The overall estimated crude rates in 2000-2002 ere 267.1 and 219.0 per 100,000 for men and women, respectively. The overall age-standardized rates (ASR) were 290.1 and 180.7 per 100,000, respectively. Compared with the ASRs obtained from Korea National Cancer Incidence database (KNCI DB), the estimated ASRs from the KRCR DB did not show statistically significant differences except for some cancers in women. For the aspect of the SE, index of DCO(death certificate only) and of MV(microscopically verified), the estimated ASRs from the KRCR DB are more accurate and they have higher quality rather than the calculated ASRs from the KNCI DB. Conclusions: We found that this developed method using the KRCR DB is valid and it could be another strategy for estimating the NCI in Korea.

Between January 1986 and December 1995, 24 patients were treated surgically for thymoma. There were 17 males and 7 females, and their ages ranged from 23 to 69 years old and mean age was 49 years. Thymomas ere associated with fourteen myasthenia gravid, and classified histologically as Iymphocytic in 12 patients, mixed in 8, epithelial in 4, and classified clinically as stage I in 11, stage II in 4, stage III in 8 and stage VI in 1 patient. Eleven patients with non-invasive thymoma had received surgical resection, and 10 out of 13 patients with invasive thymoma were able to undergo complete resection. A partial resection or tissue biopsy followed by radiation or chemotherapy was done with the remaining three patients. Three died, four had improvement of symptom, two had relapse and fifteen had no symptom during follow up ranged from 25 days to 60 months. In fourteen cases of thymoma with myasthenia gravid, one died due to myasthenic crisis, two showed symptom aggravation, six had less medical treatment and five patients had medical treatment as same as dosage received preoperatively.

Gangwon-do has been suffering extensive landslide dam age, because its geography consists mainly of mountains. Analyzing the related factors is crucial for landslide prediction. We digitized the landslide and non-landslide spots on an aerial photo obtained right after a disaster in Inje, Gangwon-do. Three landslide factors-topographic, forest type, and soil factors-w ere statistically analyzed through GIS overlap analysis between topographic map, forest type map, and soil map. The analysis showed that landslides occurred mainly between the inclination of $20^{\circ}$ and $35^{\circ}$, and needleleaf tree area is more vulnerable to a landslide. About soil properties, an area with shallow effective soil depth and parent material of acidic rock has a greater chance of landslide.

We studied the effects of the Zr/Ti ration and the bottom electrode (Pt or ITO) on the electrical properties of PZT thin films prepared by sol-gel method. Their permittivities and tagent losses with the variation of frequencies were measured by the LCR meter and their maximum polarizations, remanent polarizations, and coercive fields were obtained from the hysteresis loops measured by the Sawyer-Tower circuit. For the PZT thin film of the Zr/Ti ration of 53/47, permittivity at 10kHz, coercive field, maximum and remanent polarizations ere measured as 952, 20.7kV/cm, 10.43${\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and 4.3${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, respectively. For the film of the Zr/Ti ration of 25/75, coercive field, maximum and remanent polarizations were measured as 33.12kV/cm, 5.59${\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and 1.5${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, respectively. For the film of the Zr/Ti ratio of 75/25, they were measured as 23.8kV/cm, 7.45${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, and 3.5${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, repectively. Our investigation into the effects of the lower electrode on the electrical properties of PZT films showed the following results. The permittivities of the PZT films deposited on the ITO electrode decreased more quickly than those of the PZT films on the Pt electrode. The tangent losses of the former films increased more quickly than those of the latter. These may be due to the degradation of the quality of the interface between the electrode and the film, which results from the diffusion of Pb. It is also noticeable that permittivities and tangent losses of the PZT films deposited on the ITO electrode varied differently with the Zr/Ti ratio. This may indicate that the quality of the interface between the electrode and the film changes with the Zr/Ti ration of the PZT film.
