본 연구에서는 한국과 싱가포르에 진출한 미국, 일본, 유럽 등의 서비스 관련 외국인 투자기업을 대상으로, 첫째 본사국에서의 서비스전략이 한국과 싱가포르에서는 어떻게 현지화되어 집행되는지를 파악하고, 둘째 본사국과 두 나라(한국, 싱가포르)간의 규제적 환경과 문화적 환경의 이질성이 존재하는지, 셋째, 이질성이 존재한다면 이들 이질성이 서비스전략의 차별적인 사용에 미치는 영향을 미치는지를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 가설 검증 결과 첫째, 싱가포르에 진출한 외국인 서비스기업이 지각하는 규제적 환경의 영향 정도는 한국에 진출한 외국인 서비스기업이 지각하는 정도보다 낮았고, 둘째, 싱가포르에 진출한 외국인 서비스기업들이 한극에 진출한 외국인 서비스기업들보다 문화적 환경에 영향을 덜 받는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 한국과 싱가포르에 진출한 외국인 투자 서비스 기업간에 서비스 전략의 운용에 있어서는 유의적인 차이가 존재하지 않았다. 구체적으로 한국과 싱가포르에 진출한 외국인 투자 서비스 기업간에 규제적 환경의 이질성에 대해서는 서로 다르게 지각하는 반면 문화적 환경의 이질성에 대해서는 차이가 존재하지 않았다.

This qualitative research was designed to explore the use of housing among Korean Chinese people in Harbin, China. Focusing on the use which based on the epistemology of housing adjustment, this was particularly designed to examine its cultural assimilation and acculturation on the way of life course, it employed the in-depth interview on the oral history of 5 interviewees in their 60s and 70s, individualized interviews were conducted from May 28 to 31 in 2010. Key findings were summarized as follows; 1. The free market reform in China resulted in privatization that allowed respondents to become homeowners, and the ownership was viewed as part of family asset centered upon a sense of solidarity. 2. Although homeowners in multi-story houses were responsible to decorate interior spaces, the common features in using interior spaces were found: entrance had no thresholds; kitchen was small, lack of storage cabinets, tile-flooring; washers were installed inside bathroom; and newly built apartment didn't have proper space to store Korean fermented foods. It was observed that housing adaptation outweighed housing adjustment. Those who used to live in Chinese houses with indoor-wearing-shoes or Russian houses with indoor-wearing-slippers were receptive to the use of dining table and bed, and the community heating system discouraged the use of individual electric water heater because of high electricity cost. 3. In daily life, eating habit wasn't much changed to the Chinese style, meals were shared, dish sterilizer was popular, and Kimchi fridge wasn't used. Because of the influence of the Chinese culture, such Korean traditions as ancestral rites and bedroom allocation tradition faded away, but traditional family values remained unchanged. In conclusion, Korean Chinese people experience normative housing deficits and adaptation selectively incurred. It's implied that residential design meets the needs resulting from the dual culture in terms of cultural assimilation and acculturation.

The yeast population on 14 species of seaweeds and in water estimated by cultural mothods over a 5-month period in south-west in Korea, Nine species of yeasts, comprising unidentified one, and one of yeast-like fungi were identified. Fifty phycase were attributed to the difference of cultural method between the present work and earlier repoeters and, to some exent, the higher number of Rhodotorula glutinis which had a prior adaptation to the release of inhibitory polyphenolic materials. Although, to what extent, all division of algae showed a similar variation in yeast population, correlated with month, the rapid decrease of yeast population in August seems to be the cause of exposure of heat irradiation in this month. The cultural estimate of per se fltration without double filter and one of unidentified species are discussed.

이 논문은 초국가적 이주와 정착의 과정을 공간적 관점에서 이해하려는 "다문화 공간"의 인식론을 바탕으로, 전문직 종사 외국인들의 한국사회 적응이 어떻게 지역적으로 차별화되어 이루어지는지 경험적으로 밝혀보려는 것이다. 외국인의 국내 적응에 대한 기존의 연구들은 공간적 인식론의 결여로 인해, 외국인들의 적응과정과 한국에서의 삶에 대한 만족의 정도가 지역적으로 차이가 있다는 사실에 대해 거의 관심을 기울이지 않았었다. 하지만, 한국 내에서 지역과 도시에 따라 외국인들이 처하게 되는 삶의 조건, 자연-인문적 환경, 문화, 생활여건 등에서 많은 차이가 존재하고, 그에 따라 외국인들이 국내에 적응하고 또한 한국에서의 삶에 만족하는 정도도 지역마다 많은 차이가 존재한다. 본 논문은 이를 경험적으로 증명하기 위해, 전문직 종사 외국인들을 대상으로 한 설문조사를 바탕으로, 이들의 국내 적응과 만족의 정도가 어떻게 지역적으로 차이를 보이는지, 그리고 이들의 적응과 만족의 정도에 영향을 미치는 요인들은 지역적으로 어떠한 차이를 보이는지를 통계적 분석을 통해 알아보았다.

목적 : 본 연구는 타문화권에서 개발된 일상생활활동중심 작업기반 신경행동평가(A-ONE)를 국내 임상에서 사용할 수 있도록 한국판을 개발하고 한국 환자에게 적용하여 신뢰도와 타당도를 검증하고자 하였다. 연구방법 : 영문판 A-ONE을 한국어로 번역하고 문화적 차이를 검토하였다. 완성된 한국판을 13명의 작업치료학과 교수와 작업치료사에게 국내 적용 가능성을 확인받고, 뇌졸중 환자 42명을 대상으로 신뢰도와 타당성을 검증하였다. 결과 : 총 3개의 문항을 국내 문화에 알맞도록 수정한 결과, 한국판 A-ONE은 Index at the item level(I-CVI)=0.92-1.00을 보이며 평가 문항들이 국내 문화를 잘 대표하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. Functional Independence Measure(FIM)과 상관관계는 의사소통영역을 제외하고 r=0.52-0.77(p>0.01)로 높게 나타난 반면, Lowenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment(LOTCA)와는 전반적으로 유의미한 상관관계를 보이지 않았다(p>0.05). 내적일치도는 기능적 독립성이 Cronbach's α=0.58-0.93, 신경행동손상이 α=0.42-0.93을 보였다. 검사-재검사 신뢰도는 기능적 독립성이 Intraclass correlation coefficient(ICC)=0.79-1.00, 신경행동손상이 ICC=0.74-1.00으로 높은 수준을 보였다. 마지막으로, 검사자간 신뢰도는 기능적 독립성이 ICC=0.75-1.00, 신경행동손상이 ICC=0.72-1.00으로 높은 신뢰도를 보였다. 결론 : 한국판 A-ONE은 뇌졸중 환자의 일상생활활동 수행능력과 신경행동손상의 종류 및 손상정도를 평가하기 위해 국내 임상에서 사용될 수 있는 유용한 평가도구이다.

The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between acculturation and the daily adjustment of Korean-Chinese children to Chinese society. Specifically, this study examined the differences between language factors and cultural factors in the levels of acculturation of Korean-Chinese children. In addition, the differences of Korean-Chinese children's adjustment according to their levels of language-related and culture-related acculturation were analyzed. Subjects consisted of 679 Korean-Chinese 4th graders in Yangil, Shenyang, and Harbin. First, the result from this study showed that Korean-Chinese children in Yangil, Shenyang, and Harbin were more acculturated to the Chinese language than to Chinese cultural activities. Second, language factors and cultural factors in acculturation were distinctively associated with Korean children's daily adjustment variables such as their well-being, internal locus of control, achievement motivation, school adjustment, teacher and peer support. Lastly, this study revealed that using Korean ethnic language and maintaining Korean ethnic culture are more likely to be associated with better daily adjustment for Korean-Chinese children. These results discussed within the unique sociocultural context of the Korean-Chinese immigrant society. This study suggests that ethnic minority children's adjustment and development should be understood within the sociocultural context of their immigrant society.
