  • Objective: The purpose of this research was to assess the agreement between job physical risk factor analysis by ergonomists using ergonomic methods and physical examinations made by occupational physicians on the presence of musculoskeletal disorders of the upper extremities. Background: Ergonomics is the systematic application of principles concerned with the design of devices and working conditions for enhancing human capabilities and optimizing working and living conditions. Proper ergonomic design is necessary to prevent injuries and physical and emotional stress. The major types of ergonomic injuries and incidents are cumulative trauma disorders (CTDs), acute strains, sprains, and system failures. Minimization of use of excessive force and awkward postures can help to prevent such injuries Method: Initial data were collected as part of a larger study by the University of Utah Ergonomics and Safety program field data collection teams and medical data collection teams from the Rocky Mountain Center for Occupational and Environmental Health (RMCOEH). Subjects included 173 male and female workers, 83 at Beehive Clothing (a clothing plant), 74 at Autoliv (a plant making air bags for vehicles), and 16 at Deseret Meat (a meat-processing plant). Posture and effort levels were analyzed using a software program developed at the University of Utah (Utah Ergonomic Analysis Tool). The Ergonomic Epicondylitis Model (EEM) was developed to assess the risk of epicondylitis from observable job physical factors. The model considers five job risk factors: (1) intensity of exertion, (2) forearm rotation, (3) wrist posture, (4) elbow compression, and (5) speed of work. Qualitative ratings of these physical factors were determined during video analysis. Personal variables were also investigated to study their relationship with epicondylitis. Logistic regression models were used to determine the association between risk factors and symptoms of epicondyle pain. Results: Results of this study indicate that gender, smoking status, and BMI do have an effect on the risk of epicondylitis but there is not a statistically significant relationship between EEM and epicondylitis. Conclusion: This research studied the relationship between an Ergonomic Epicondylitis Model (EEM) and the occurrence of epicondylitis. The model was not predictive for epicondylitis. However, it is clear that epicondylitis was associated with some individual risk factors such as smoking status, gender, and BMI. Based on the results, future research may discover risk factors that seem to increase the risk of epicondylitis. Application: Although this research used a combination of questionnaire, ergonomic job analysis, and medical job analysis to specifically verify risk factors related to epicondylitis, there are limitations. This research did not have a very large sample size because only 173 subjects were available for this study. Also, it was conducted in only 3 facilities, a plant making air bags for vehicles, a meat-processing plant, and a clothing plant in Utah. If working conditions in other kinds of facilities are considered, results may improve. Therefore, future research should perform analysis with additional subjects in different kinds of facilities. Repetition and duration of a task were not considered as risk factors in this research. These two factors could be associated with epicondylitis so it could be important to include these factors in future research. Psychosocial data and workplace conditions (e.g., low temperature) were also noted during data collection, and could be used to further study the prevalence of epicondylitis. Univariate analysis methods could be used for each variable of EEM. This research was performed using multivariate analysis. Therefore, it was difficult to recognize the different effect of each variable. Basically, the difference between univariate and multivariate analysis is that univariate analysis deals with one predictor variable at a time, whereas multivariate analysis deals with multiple predictor variables combined in a predetermined manner. The univariate analysis could show how each variable is associated with epicondyle pain. This may allow more appropriate weighting factors to be determined and therefore improve the performance of the EEM.

  • Number of aspects, not only nutritional but social as well as political involved in human starvation pose nowadays global problems. In order to help establish the minimum nutritional requirements in the daily life of a man and to free people as well from either undernourishment, malnutrition or even starvation many workers have devoted themselves so far on the research programs to know what and how number of metabolic events take place in animals in vivo. It is the purpose of the present paper to examine in effect to what extent both of the protein and nucleic acids (DNA & RNA) together with an enzyme, guanine deaminase, which converts guanine into xanthine and in turn ends up to uric acid as an end product, undergo changes, quantitatively during acute starvation, using the mouse as an experimental animal. The mouse was strictly inhibited from taking foods except drinking water ad libitum and was sacriflced 24, 48, and 72 hours following starvation thus acutely induced. The animals consisted of two experimental groups, one control and another starvation groups, each being consisted of 6-24 mice of whose body weights ranged in the vicinity of 10 g. The animals were sacriflced by a blow on the head, followed by immediate excision of their livers into ice-cold distilled water, washing adherent blood and other contaminant tissues. The liver was minced foramin, by an all-glass homogenizer immersing it in an ice-bath, followed by subsequent fractionatin of the homogenate (10% W/V in 0.25M sucrose solution made up with 0.05M phosphate buffer of pH 7.4). For the liver protein and guanine deaminase assay, the 10% homogenate was centrifuged at 600 x g for 10 minutes to eliminate the nuclear fraction; and for the estimation of DNA and RNA, the homogenate was prepared by the addition of 10% trichloroacetic acid in order to free the homogenate from the acid-soluble fraction, the remaining residue being delipidate by the addition of alcohol and dried in vacuo for later KOH (IN) hydrolysis. The changes in body and liver wegihts during acute starvation were checked gravimetrically. Protein contents in the liver were monitored by the method of Lowry et al; and guanine deaminase activities were followed by the assay of liberated ammonia from the substrate utilizing the Caraway's colorimetry. The extraction of both DNA and RNA was performed by the Schmidt-Thannhauser's method, which was followed by Marmur's method of purification for DNA and by Chargaff's method of purification for RNA. The determinations of both DNA and RNA were carried out by the diphenylamine reaction for the former and by the orcinol reaction for the latter. The following resume was the results of the present work. 1. It was observed that the body as well as liver weights fall abruptly during starvation, and that the loss of body weight showed no statistical correlation with the decreases in the content of liver protein. 2. The content of liver protein and activity of liver guanine deaminase activity as well decline dramatically, and the specific activities of the enzyme (activity/protein), however, decreased gradually as starvation proceeded. 3. Both of the nucleic acids, DNA and RNA, showed decrements in the liver of mouse during acute starvation; the latter, however, being more striking in the decline as compared to the former. 4. The decreases in the liver protein content as resulted from the acute starvation had no statistically significant correlation with the decrements of DNA in the same tissue, but had regressed with a significant statistical correlation with the fall of RNA in the tissue. 5. The decrease in the activity of guanine deaminase in the liver of mouse during acute starvation was functionally more proportional to the decrease in RNA than DNA, and moreover correlated with the changes in the content of the liver protein. 6. The possible mechanisms involved during in this acute starvation as bring the decreases in the contents of DNA, protein, and guanine deaminase were discussed briefly.

  • 최근 기후변화와 여름철 고온 등으로 인한 녹조현상, 사고발생으로 인한 화학물질 및 유류 유출 등 수질오염과 관련된 사회적 관심이 높아지고 있다. 수질오염 사례 중 화학사고로 인한 유해화학물질 유출은 인체에 접촉시 인체에 악영향을 끼치며, 대기·수질·토양을 오염시키고 주변 농작물의 변색이나 괴사를 유발하는 등 생태환경에 직접적인 피해가 발생한다. 하천으로 유출가능성이 있는 화학물질은 무색의 수용성인 경우가 많아 육안으로 유출 사실을 확인하기가 어렵다. 화학사고 발생시 화학물질의 탐지는 간이접촉식탐지장비를 이용하거나 화학물질의 유출이 우려되는 곳에 검출센서를 설치해 사고를 감시하고 있다. 이러한 접촉식 센서는 현장인력에 의존적이고, 설치식 검출센서 또한 제한적으로 설치되어 미설치 지역에 대한 능동적 탐지가 어렵다는 한계가 있다. 한편 최근 초분광 영상을 활용하여 물질 고유의 분광특성을 분석함으로써 토지피복, 식생, 수질 등의 식별에 활용되고 있다. 따라서 초분광 센서를 활용한 화학물질 감지 가능성도 보여주고 있지만 연구는 미비한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 수계로 유출되는 유해화학물질을 식별하기 위하여 접촉식 탐지 기술의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 원격탐사기법과 최신 센서기술을 활용하였다. 유해화학물질 18종을 대상으로 초분광 영상을 이용한 상호 구분이 가능한 지 확인하고자 해당 유해화학물질의 초분광 영상을 촬영하여 분광라이브러리를 구축하였다. 향후 연구를 통해 유해화학물질 분광라이브러리 데이터베이스를 확대하고, 하천 적용에 대한 검증을 실시한 후 실시간 모니터링에 적용할 경우 신속한 화학사고 발생여부 감지 및 대응에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • The advances of medical technologies have not only prolonged human life span, but also extended suffering period for the patients with incurable medical diseases. Hospice movement was developed to help these patients keep dignity and lives peaceful at the end of their life. Since many patients prefer to spend the last moment of life at home with their family, hospice home care has become very popular worldwide. The purpose of this study for a promotion and development of hospice home care in Korea, and features basic research on medical profession's knowledge and attitudes to hospice home care. This study which was used for the research questionnaires developed by the researcher that were answered by 100 physicians and 127 nurses in a general hospital. Data were collected from April 22, 2002 to May 10, 2002. The SPSS was used to make a comparative analysis of the frequency, percentile, ANOVA, and x2-test. The results of the study were as follows; 1.The medical profession showed high level of knowledge of the definition and philosophy of hospice. However, the physician group of the examinees showed insufficient knowledge of the fact that hospice care includes bereavement care, while the nurse group's response to the same question showed a significant difference(x2=10.752, p=.001). 2.For whom the hospice home care is provided, 95.6% of the respondents showed very high level of knowledge as answering that the incurable terminal illness patients and their families are the beneficiaries of hospice care. The respondents counted nurses, volunteers, pastors, physicians and social workers, consecutively, as hospice care providers. More nurse were positive toward pastors than physicians in regarding as a hospice care provider by a significant difference(x2=11.634, p=.001). 3.For when to referral hospice home care to the patients, only 34.2% answered that patients with less than 6 months of survival time are advised to receive hospice care, reflecting very low level of knowledge. 23.0% of the physicians and 48.0% of the nurses answered that hospice care should be provided when death is imminent, making a significant difference between the two groups(x2=6.413, p=.000). 4.To promote hospice activities, 87.2% pointed out that it is crucial to make general people, including those engaging in the medical field, more aware of hospice. 79.7% answered that a national hospice management should be developed, marking a significant difference between the physician group and nurse group(x2=10.485, p=.001). 5.Advantages of hospice home care are 87.2% responded that patients can have better rest at home receiving hospice home care. Economical merit was brought forward as one of the advantages also, where there was a significant difference between the physicians group and nurse group(x2=7.009, p=.008). 6.The medical professions' attitude to hospice home care are 92.8% of the physicians answered that they would advise incurable terminally ill patients to be discharged from hospital, with 44.3% of them advising the patients to receive hospice home care after leaving the hospital. From the nurses' point of view, 20.9% of the terminally ill patients are being referred to hospice home care after discharge, which makes a significant difference from the physicians' response(x2=19.121, p=.001). 7. 30.6% of physicians have referred terminally ill patients to hospice home care, 75.9% of whom were satisfied with their decision. Those physicians who have never referred their patients to hospice home care either did not know how to do it(66.7%) or were afraid of losing trust by giving the patients an impression of giving up(27.3%). 94.9% of the physicians responded that they would refer their last stage patients to a doctor who is involving palliative care. 8.Only 36.2% of nurses have suggested to physicians that refer the terminally ill patients discharged from the hospital to hospice home care. Once suggested, 95.8% of the physicians have accepted the suggestion. Nurses were reluctant to suggest hospice home care to the physicians, as 48.8% of the nurses said they did not want to. From the result of this study the following conclusion can be drawn, the medical profession's awareness of general hospice care has been increased greatly compared to the results of the previously performed studies. However, this study result also shows that their knowledge of hospice home care is not good enough yet. There is a need for high recommended that medical education institute and develop regular courses on various types of hospice care. Medical field training courses for physicians and nurses will be very helpful as well. It is also important to train hospice experts such as palliative physicians and develop a national hospice management urgently in order to improve the hospice care in Korea.

  • This study was conducted to compare the characteristics of high performane areas for family planning with that of low performance areas and to find factors which strongly affected contraceptive practice behavior. For the study, eight areas were selected from 274 rural family planning canvassing areas of Korean Population Policy and Program Evaluation Study, which was an action study operated in all areas of Cheju Island from July 1, 1976 until December 31,1979. As a first step of the action study, Cheju Island was devided up 318 family planning canvasser areas Each area was consisted of 200 households in rural district and 300 households in urhan one Duriog the period of project, each canvassing area had been managed by a female family planning canvasser, selected by director of health center considering several individual conditions needed for family planning activities Basic activities of canvassers were to counsell all the eligihie couples in own charged area about family planning methods and also to distribute contraceptives such as condoms and oral pills. In case couples desire to accept sterilization including vasectomy and tubal-ligation, the canvassers played a linking role connecting potential client with family planning field workers. Canvassng areas shows significant differentce in performance for family planning, nevertheless they are supposed to have almost the same conditions regarding family planning distribution channel. Because the purpose of the Cheju project was to eliminate all the problems that existed in governmental distribution system, that is to remove geographic, economic, cognitive and administrative barriers Accumulated performances of family planning methods accepted by residents in each area were calculated by eligible women aged 14-49. And then canvassing areas were ranked according to performance score. Consequently, 4 areas in extremely high and low family planning performance areas were selected respectively. Major results were obtained by comparing characteristics of high performance area with that of low performance areas, which are as follows: 1. The mean number of living children was about the same both in high and low performance areas for family planning. But respondents' mean age (38.5) in high performance areas was higher than that (37.0) in low performance areas 2. Respondents' perception in the expectant educational level of others' children in high performance areas was higher than that in low performance areas, although respondents educational level, monthly expenditure and ratio of children in high school and above was not different. 3. Ratio of ownerships of TV and newspaper in high performance areas was highen than that in low performance areas 4. The duration of canvasser' charge in high performance areas was longer than that of low performance areas, showing the fact that canvassers didn't move cut in high performance areas 5. In high performance areas, canvassers' houses were relatively located in the center part of the village. And so villagers resided in near distances from the anvasser's house 6. 4H clubs' activities in high performance areas were more active than those in low performance areas Therefore it was assumed that cohesiveness of community in high performance areas were stronger than that in low areas. 7. Canvassers' family planning practice rate was higher than that in low performance areas, and also canvassers' human relationship was more sociable than that of canvassers in low performance areas. 8. Fourteen variables which showed relatively high significance level in $X^2$ and F test were selected as independent variables for stepwise regression analysis. According to the results of regression analysis. five of 14 variables-distributors education level ($R^2$=.4439), duration of distributor's charge ($R^2$=.6166), 4H club activities ($R^2$=.6697), canvasser's contraceptive practice ($R^2$=.7377) and location of distributions house ($R^2$=.8010) explained 80.1 percent of total variance.

  • Recently, there is a substantial interest in implementing Business Process Management System(BPMS) among enterprises with the purpose of business process innovation. BPMS redesigns and coordinates business processes in terms of both automated steps and human involvement in order to maximize the value of both involved people and systems. The reason why BPMS is getting attention from top managers is that it has the possibility to optimize the business processes by cycling the process of modeling, execution, monitoring, evaluation, and redesigning work processes. Thus, it has created high expectations about not only productivity improvement but also business process innovation. However. having an innovative nature, which is used for process innovation, BPMS implementation has great potential to stir up employee resistance. The analysis and the discussion about the prevention of the resistance against IS(Information Systems) is important because IS change the way people work and also alter the power structure within the organization, in general. The purpose of this study is to investigate factors that have an impact on the effective adoption of BPMS at the enterprise level. To find out these factors, this study considers two characteristics of BPMS: First. BPMS shares some characteristics with other enterprise-wide IS such as ERP. Second, it has special BPMS-specific characteristics. Due to the lack of previous research on BPMS adoption, interviews were carried out with IT-consultants and CIOs who conducted BPMS projects previously to find out BPMS-specific features that would make BPMS unique when compared to other enterprise-wide IS. As a result, the monitoring function was chosen as the main BPMS-specific factor. Thus, this paper reviewed studies both on enterprise-wide IS adoptions, which applied Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and secondly on computer based monitoring to find out factors that would influence the employees' perception on the monitoring function of BPMS. Based on the literature review, the study suggested three factors that would have an impact on the employee's perception of the monitoring function: fairness of enterprise evaluation system, fairness of the boss, and self-efficacy of their work. Three factors that would impact the enterprise-wide IS adoption were also set: the shared belief in the benefit of BPMS, training, and communication. Then, these factors were integrated with TAM. Structural equation modeling was used to test hypotheses, out factors that would impact the employees' perception on the monitoring function of BPMS. Based on the literature review the study suggested three factors that would have an impact on the employee's perception of the monitoring function: fairness of enterprise evaluation system, fairness of the boss, and self-efficacy of their work. Three factors that would impact the enterprise-wide IS adoption were also set: the shared belief in the benefit of BPMS, training, and communication. Then, these factors were integrated with TAM. Structural equation modeling was used to test hypotheses. The data analysis results showed that two among three monitoring function related factors - enterprise evaluation system and fairness of the boss - were significant. This implies that employees would worry less about the BPMS implementation as long as they perceive the monitoring results will be used fairly for their performance evaluation. However, employees' high self-efficacy on their job was not a significant factor in their perception of the usefulness of BPMS. This is related to cases that showed employees resisted against the information systems because they automated their works (Markus, 1983). One specific case was an electronic company, where the accounting department workers were requested to redefine their job because their working processes were automated due to BPMS implementation.

  • 북한에서는 한민족의 전통 구비설화를 개작하여 아동들을 위한 동화로 활용한다. 한민족의 대표적인 설화 <해와 달이 된 오누이> 역시 그들의 사관에 따라 변형되었다. 북한 애니메이션 <오누이와 나무군>은 본래의 설화형태에서 오누이가 하늘로부터 구원되고 해와 달이 되는 결말이 다른 모습으로 대체되어 있다. <오누이와 나무군>의 각색은 북한의 문예사관이 반영된 형태이자, 북한의 옛이야기 수용문화를 잘 이해하게 한다. 이에 본고는 분단이전의 설화자료를 통해 이 설화의 원형을 파악하고, 남북의 현대적 매체로 재창작된 작품들을 대상으로 그 서사 상의 공통점과 차이점을 분석하였다. 또한 북한의 독특한 관점이 발견되는 애니메이션의 개작 범위와 그로 인해 전환된 의미에 대해 분석하여 서사적 가치에 대해서 논하였다. 이 애니메이션은 오누이가 위압적인 호랑이의 공격을 이겨내고 승리하는 과정을 충실히 담아내어, 여타 남북의 현대적 창작물에 비해 이 설화의 본래 의미를 풍요롭게 구현하고 있다. 다만 본래 설화의 결말 속 하늘의 상징성이 축소되어, 아무도 지켜주지 못할 때 오누이의 내면에서 긍정적 신념이 발동되는 가능성의 정도가 약화되는 한계점을 보인다. 그럼에도 구체적인 성공과정으로 오누이의 역량에 대해 사실적으로 이해하게 하는 특장을 지녔다는 점은 부인할 수 없으며, 오누이 성공의 또 다른 형상으로 본래 설화의 의미를 잘 담아내고 있는 색다른 작품이라고 할 수 있다. 통일된 미래사회에서 이 애니메이션은 당시 북한의 사회문화를 이해할 수 있게하는 중요한 자료이자, <해와 달이 된 오누이>의 핵심을 잘 담고 있으면서도 오누이의 성공을 실제 삶과 가까운 범위로 이해하고 능동적 실천력을 공감하게 하는 아동문학으로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

  • 본 연구에서는 중소기업의 조직문화와 자기효능감이 잡 크래프팅과 직무만족도에 영향을 미칠 것이라는 인과적 관계를 검증하고자 하였다. 조직 차원의 조직문화와 개인 차원의 자기효능감으로 각각 연구되어 오던 기존의 국내 선행연구들과 달리 서로 상이한 기제를 선행요인으로 잡 크래프팅과 직무만족도의 상호작용을 검증하고자 하였다. 본 연구의 연구모형을 검증하기 위해 서울 및 수도권 소재 중소기업 근로자 144명의 설문을 분석하였다. 변수 간의 관계에 대한 연구모형의 신뢰성과 타당성을 검증하기 위해 요인분석 및 상관관계 분석을 시행하였고, 가설의 검증을 위해 회귀분석 및 매개효과분석을 사용하여 실증분석을 실시하였다. 연구 결과는 첫째, 조직문화와 자기효능감은 잡 크래프팅에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 조직문화의 하위요인인 관계지향문화와 위계지향문화는 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 조직문화와 자기효능감은 직무만족도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 조직문화의 하위요인인 시장지향문화와 위계지향문화는 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 잡 크래프팅은 직무만족도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 잡 크래프팅의 하위요인인 방해적 직무요구와 사회적 직무자원은 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 이는 조직문화는 중소기업의 잡 크래프팅과 직무만족도에 부분적 영향을 미치며, 잡 크래프팅 또한 직무만족도에 부분적 영향을 미친다는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구의 시사점은 첫째, 낮은 생산성과 높은 이직률로 고민하는 중소기업에 안정적이고 효율적인 인적자원 운영을 위한 중소기업 조직문화의 의미를 제시하였다. 둘째, 중소기업의 효과적인 직무관리방안으로 잡 크래프팅의 도입 가능성을 파악하게 되어 의미가 있었다. 셋째, 현재 잡 크래프팅에 대한 실질적인 도입을 한 사례가 미미한 상황에서 중소기업을 대상으로 한 잡 크래프팅의 이해와 직무만족도 향상을 위한 연구는 중소기업의 생산성 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 생각된다.

  • 인간의 기본 욕구 중 하나인 존중의 욕구를 충족시키지 못하는 사회적 배제는 이를 지각한 사람들로 하여금 물리적 따뜻함을 추구하도록 만든다고 알려져 있다. 그러나 사회적 배제가 따뜻함을 추구하게 만드는 현상이 조명의 색 같은 감성적이고 상징적인 차원에도 일반화될 수 있을지에 대해서는 연구가 드물었다. 본 연구는 지각된 사회적 배제가 따뜻한 조명 선호에 미치는 효과를 검증하기 위해 이루어졌으며, 이를 위해 두 가지 실험을 수행하였다. 실험-1은 어제 사람들로부터 존중받은 사람은 사회적 배제를 지각하지 않은 집단으로, 존중받지 못한 사람은 사회적 배제를 지각한 집단으로 구분한 후, 따뜻한 조명(3000K), 중립적 조명(4000K), 차가운 조명(6000K)에 대한 선호도를 측정하였다. 결과적으로 사회적 배제를 지각한 집단은 그렇지 않은 집단보다 따뜻한 조명 선호도가 강했고, 차가운 조명 선호도는 약했다. 또한 사회적 배제를 지각한 집단은 중립적 조명보다 따뜻한 조명을 강하게 선호하는 반면, 차가운 조명을 약하게 선호함을 확인하였다. 실험-2는 실험-1과 동일한 방식으로 집단을 구분한 후, 따뜻한 조명이 적용된 공간, 중립적 조명이 적용된 공간, 차가운 조명이 적용된 공간에 대한 선호를 측정하였다. 결과적으로 사회적 배제를 지각한 집단은 그렇지 않은 집단보다 따뜻한 조명이 적용된 공간에 대한 선호도가 강했고, 차가운 조명이 적용된 공간에 대한 선호도는 약했다. 아울러 사회적 배제를 지각한 집단은 중립적 조명이 적용된 공간보다 따뜻한 조명이 적용된 공간을 강하게 선호하는 반면, 차가운 조명이 적용된 공간은 약하게 선호함을 관찰하였다. 본 연구는 장애인, 다문화 가정, 이주 노동자와 같이 사회적 배제를 경험한 사람들의 생활공간 디자인, 이들을 대상으로 한 인공지능 상담 서비스 및 친구 캐릭터 개발 등에 시사점을 준다.
