Purpose: In an attempt to investigate the differences in the level of stress & mental health between extracurricular learning group and non-extracurricular learning group and level of stress and mental health by the extracurricular learning-related characteristics, this study was carried out in upper grade elementary students. Method: The subjects were 241 students living in 4 small towns in 4th, 5th and 6th grade elementary students. The data were collected by using the questionnaires, and analyzed by SPSS/WIN 12.0 program. Results: First, 64.7% of subjects were receiving extra-curricular learning, and extracurricular learning contents were the main curriculum and foreign language classes in many cases. Second, there were no differences in the level of stress and mental health between extracurricular learning group and non-extracurricular learning group, but also in the area of stress as physical, mental, emotional and behavioral stress. Third, extra-curricular learning satisfaction and learning effects are the major factor affecting mental and emotional stress and mental health. In other words, the group with high satisfaction and effectiveness by extra-curricular learning was less mentally and emotionally stressed and better for mental health than low group. Also, days per week for extracurricular learning affected physical stress and intention to continue extracurricular learning affected mental stress. Fourth, factors affecting whether the intention to continue extracurricular learning were the sex, decision-makers about whether they receive extracurricular learning, extracurricular learning satisfaction and duration of extracurricular learning. Conclusion: From the above results, The fact that the upper grade elementary school students receiving the extracurricular learning did not affect on the stress and mental health. In case of extracurricular group, the effectiveness and satisfaction about extra-curricular learning were major factors affecting mental and emotional stress as well as mental health.

Purpose: To identify risk factors for surgical site infections in patients undergoing general surgery, to analyze the prolonged hospital stay and extra cost for antibiotics, and to provide basic data for control of surgical site infections. Method: Surgical site infection was defined using the definition of the CDC and the data were analyzed by $x^2$-test and unpaired t-test. Results: The prevalence of surgical site infections was 9.7%, and it was related to wound class, duration of operation, number of operations, whether the operation was an emergency, trauma, drains, preoperative stays, presence of remote infection during operative period, and previous history of recent surgery. The mean duration for post-operative stay when a surgical site infection occurred was 9.5 days and in 56.9 % of the patients the surgical site infection appeared 7 days after the operation. Post-operative stays for infected patients were 20.3 days longer than that of uninfected patients. The mean cost of antibiotics for infected patients was higher than that for uninfected patients by 561,067 won per person. Conclusion: Surgical site infection results in an increased length of stay and extra-cost, thus, hospitals need to create strategies to reduce nosocomial infections through effective infection surveillance and by considering factors related to surgical site infections.

A liquid chromatographic chiral stationary phase (CSP) based on (+)-(18-crown-6)-2,3,11,12-tetracarboxilic acid without extra free aminopropyl groups on silica surface has been demonstrated to be quite effective for the resolution of various $\beta$-amino acids. The retention factors ($k_1$) for the resolution of $\beta$-amino acids on the CSP were quite large and the large retention factors might be quite attractive along with the reasonable separation factors ($\alpha$) for preparative scale enantioselective chromatography. The large retention factors on the CSP were found to be reduced effectively by adding ammonium ion to mobile phase without sacrificing the chiral recognition efficiency of the CSP. Consequently, the CSP is also quite applicable for use in analytical enantioselective chromatography.

산란계 농가를 둘러싼 사료 값 폭등과 유가 상승 등 각종 생산 비용의 증가는 예측하기 어렵고, 통제하기 힘든 대외적 환경의 변화이다. 산란계 농가는 종계, 사료, 약품, 시설 등을 대부분 수입에 의존하고 있어 급격한 외적인 환경변화는 산란계 농가 입장에서 예측하기 어려울 뿐만 아니라, 이를 인지하더라도 대응하기 어렵다. 결국 사료 가격과 에너지 비용의 상승은 농가 차원에서는 통제가 사실상 불가능하기 때문에, 대외적인 여건 변화에 취약한 산란계 농가의 입장에서는 품질 향상, 생산비 절감 등을 통해 내부 경영의 효율성을 높이는 것이 최선의 방법이라 할 수 있다. 산란계 농가가 계란 생산에 필요한 외부 요인들을 적절하게 통제할 수 있는 사양 관리 시스템을 구축할 경우, 특란 생산량을 증가시킬 수 있고, 이는 산란계 농가의 소득을 증가시킬 수 있기 때문이다. 본 연구의 주요 결과 및 시사점을 정리하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 흥생양계 의성농장이 경영 장부에 기록된 기초 통계량 중에서 급이량, 내부 최고 온도, 내부 최저 온도, 시산일령의 외부 요인들이 산란계 농가의 특란 생산에 영향을 주고 있었다. 둘째, 회귀모형의 추정에서 표준화 계수로부터 살펴본 결과, 산란계 농가의 특란 생산량에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 외부요인은 급이량이며, 다음이 시산일령인 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 산란계 농가의 특란 생산량 증대를 위해서는 농장의 한생산주기 동안 산란계의 시산일령에 따라서 효과적인 급이량의 배분이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 셋째, 외부 요인별 탄력성을 이용하여 산란계 농가의 특란 생산량의 변동성을 알아본 결과, 외부 요인인 독립변수 중에서 변동성이 가장 큰 것은 급이량이며, 다음으로 시산일령인 것으로 나타났다. 산란계 농가의 사양 관리에서 1회 생산주기 동안 특란 생산량 증가를 통하여 소득을 증대하기 위해서는 산란계의 시산일령 변화에 따른 급이량의 조절 등 효율적인 사양 관리 시스템 구축이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 산란계 계사(鷄舍)의 내부 최고 온도와 내부 최저온도의 변화가 특란 생산량에 영향을 미치고 있으므로, 계절에 따른 계사 내부의 적정 온도 유지에 유의해야할 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 끝으로, 산란계 농가의 특란 생산량에는 급이량, 시산일령, 내부 온도 변화 등 외부 요인들이 정도는 다르지만 개별적 복합적으로 영향을 미치고 있으므로, 산란계 농가에서는 이를 고려한 계절별 성장 단계별 사양 관리 시스템을 구축할 필요가 있음을 시사하고 있다.

Background: The type of payment is one of the important factors that has an effect on the health of employees, as a basic working condition. In the conventional research field of occupational safety and health, only the physical, chemical, biological, and ergonomic factors are treated as the main hazardous factors. Managerial factors and basic working conditions such as working hours and the type of payment are neglected. This paper aimed to investigate the association of the type of payment and the exposure to the various hazardous factors as an heuristic study. Methods: The third Korean Working Conditions Survey (KWCS) by the Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute in 2011 was used for this study. Among the total sample of 50,032 economically active persons, 34,788 employees were considered for analysis. This study examined the relation between the three types of payment such as basic fixed salary and wage, piece rate, and extra payment for bad and dangerous working conditions and exposure to hazardous factors like vibration, noise, temperature, chemical contact, and working at very high speeds. Multivariate regression analysis was used to measure the effect of the type of payment on working hours exposed to hazards. Results: The result showed that the proportion of employees with a basic fixed salary was 94.5%, the proportion with piece rates was 38.6%, and the proportion who received extra payment for hazardous working conditions was 11.7%. Conclusion: The piece rate was associated with exposure to working with tight deadlines and stressful jobs. This study had some limitations because KWCS was a cross-sectional survey.

Consumers experience various cognitive and emotional contents of clothing through postpurchase process. These experiences may affect consumer satisfaction as well as brand attitude toward clothing products. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of consumption experiences on the brand attitude toward clothing products. The research questions for accomplishing the purpose of this study were to investigate 1) the dimension of consumption experiences, 2) relationships among consumption experience, satisfaction and brand attitude toward clothing. The sample of this study was consisted of 431 females. The survey method, and factor analysis and regression were utilized for this study. The results were as follows; First, it was found out the consumption was composed of two dimensions such as cognitive and emotional experiences. According to the result of factor analysis, the cognitive experiences through consumption process were composed of 6 factors, that is, the suitability, fitness, utility/economy, sewing, deformation, and management. And emotional experiences were composed of 5 factors, that is, unpleasure, activeycomfort, inter-oriented pleasure, extra- oriented pleasure, tension. Also emotional experiences could be composed of two dimensions, that is, positive and negative emotion. The positive emotions were included pleasure and active/comfort. The negative emotions were included unpleasure and tension. Second, the result of path analysis showed that consumption experiences were related to satisfaction and brand attitude. A satisfaction influenced on brand attitude more strongly than others. And sewing, activejcomfort, extra-oriented pleasure out of cognitive and emotional experience factors affected to brand attitude directly. Satisfaction was also influenced by cognitive and emotional factors, and was the important mediator in forming brand attitude toward clothing through consumption experience. Above results imply that consumer experience multidimensional cognitive and emotional aspects of clothing through consumption process. The cognitive and emotional aspects consisting of consumption experiences, satisfaction, and brand attitude are interrelated causally. Therefore, experience related variables could be the antecedents of satisfaction and brand attitude. The satisfaction and positive emotion could be also important factors in brand attitude toward clothing.

Background/Objectives: Extra-nodal extension (ENE) is one of the strongest prognosticators in oral cancers. Here we tried to evaluate clinicopathological factors associated with the presence of ENE. Materials & Methods: We retrospectively analyzed clinical information of 120 patients who diagnosed with oral cancer and received curative surgery at our hospital from Mar 2012 to Apr 2020. We comparatively analyzed clinicopathological factors associated with the presence of lymph node (LN) metastasis and ENE, respectively. Results: Variable factors of primary tumor characteristics such as lymphovascular invasion, perineural invasion, largest diameter of tumor, depth of invasion and maximum standardized uptake value were significantly associated with the presence of cervical LN metastasis. The largest diameter of tumor was statistically significant also in multivariate analysis for predicting the LN metastasis. Meanwhile, the association between primary tumor characteristics and the presence of ENE were not statistically significant except the primary tumor size. Importantly, factors associated with LN characteristics including the maximum diameter and number of metastatic LNs were significantly associated with ENE. Conclusion: In this study, several factors affecting cervical LN metastasis and ENE in oral cancer patients were identified. The ENE seems to be influenced by the status of the metastatic LNs, such as the number of metastatic LNs, rather than the characteristics of the primary tumor itself.
