Systematic performance evaluation of the Defense Acquisition Program is very important, since they are directly related to national security. In this paper, we reviewed various performance evaluation models from a methodological perspective for pragmatic performance evaluation, and the limitations of each model. In order to evaluate the performance of the Defense acquisition program efficiently, especially for the Naval ship Projects and considering their unique characteristics, both various stakeholders' participation, standard indicators for performance measurement, and tailoring them considering the projects' circumstances are necessary. We also propose indicators, contents, and detailed criteria example for the Requirements management. This approach enables a pragmatic and consistent evaluation of defense projects, and through this, meaningful insights could be acquired with accumulate data.

For the purpose of developing ‘Web-Based Nutritional Education Program’, this study did instructional analysis, analysis of entry behaviors and learner characteristics to select instructional contents for nutritional education program for junior/senior high school students. Survey questionnaires were distributed from October 21, 2002 to October 26, 2002 to a total of 564 junior/senior high school students in Seoul. The total number of questionnaires collected and used in our study was 479, which is 84.9% of the total questionnaires distributed. As a result of the curriculum analysis of ‘Technology-Home economics’, subjects related with ‘food and nutrition’ in the 7$^{th}$ educational course study result, lessons including the contents of food and nutrition were ‘nutrition and meal of adolescent’ in 7th grade, ‘family meal management’ in 9th grade and ‘practice of home life’ in 10th grade. According to the curriculum analysis, ‘nutrition’ and ‘food’ were chosen for the superior subjects of nutrition education program and four subordinate subjects per superior one were developed. Then, entry behaviors and learner characteristics were analyzed： life characteristics, internet usage, anthropometrics data and nutritional knowledge. Students were interested in using computer and preferred passive activity to dynamic activity. According. to the analysis of internet usage, WBI for students should composed active parts such as game, moving image, immediate reply and follow-up bye-mail, bulletin board and com- munity activity. Students’ BMI were in normal range but they were lacked nutritional knowledge. We wrote performance objectives that were specific behavior skills to be learned, the conditions under which they must be performed and the criteria for successful performance. The next step for developing the WBI nutrition education program would be based on the results mentioned above.

This paper attempts to identify the occupational stress-related factors among the workers at the manufacturing industry and to provide the basic data concerning development of stress management program focused on the manufacturing industry. The subjects exhibit significantly highest level of 'the characteristics of task and participation in decision making factor'. And the mean score of 'the avoid coping strategies' was higher than 'the control coping strategies'. The main factor that affected the occupational stress responses was 'the physio-environmental factor' and it was explained 15.6% out of the total variance of the stress responses. Also, it would be explained 29% out of the total variance of the stress responses with 'the characteristics of task/participation in decision making factor', sex, social support, and 'extra-organizational stressor'. In conclusion. For developing the stress management program in workplace, 'the physical environmental factor' and 'the characteristics of task and participation in decision making factor' should be considered.

The purpose of this study was to assess the needs for nutrition programs in the public health centers by general characteristics and body mass index (BMI) of community residents. Information of general characteristics of study participants including age, education, income, marital status, residence, and job, and resident's interest in nutrition programs, the preferred educational methods and the willingness to participate in nutrition programs were collected by an interview. Weight and height were measured and were used to calculate the BMI. The program that resident's were most interested in was 'diet therapy for chronic disease and counseling' ($28.5\%$), followed by 'nutritional management for the elderly' ($21.1\%$), and 'obesity and weight control' ($17.1\%$). 'Education and counseling by nutrition professionals' was the most preferred educational method. Among the programs that the subjects would participate in, if they were offered in public health centers, $65.8\%$ subjects would participate in 'diet therapy for chronic disease and counseling' programs, $64.9\%$ would participate in 'nutritional management for the elderly' programs and $52.2\%$ would participate in 'obesity and weight control' programs. The contents of programs that the subjects were interested in, the preferred methods and their willingness to participate nutrition programs differed significantly by age, income, education, marital status, and body mass index. The results imply that the planning of nutrition interventions in the public health centers must be tailored and targeted group specific by taking the participants general characteristics and body mass index into consideration. This would surely increase the nutrition program's effectiveness

The objective of this study was to identify the job performance and perceived job importances of dietitians according to the characteristics of foodservice operations as well as dietitians. Questionnaires were distributed to 400 dietitians, and a total of 202 were received and utilized(50.5%). Statistical analysis of the data was performed using the SAS package program(version 8.2) for descriptive analysis and $X^2-tests$. The results are summarized as follows. The highest job task frequency was for sanitation management (98.5%); and then nutrition management (96.6%), cost management (92.6%), and inventory management (92.1%). The dietitians' perceived job importance was highest for sanitation management (74.3%), followed by nutrition management (68.8%) and human resource management (37.1%). Dietitians with under 3 years of experience had more difficulties, particularly in purchasing management, cost management, and sanitation management. Dietitians within contracted foodservice operations were dissatisfied by having insufficient education for cost management. Thus, programs for on-the-job and off-the-job training, reflecting dietitians' educational needs and changing job tasks should be increased.

Objectives: This study aims to identify participants-focused health education approaches for the management of metabolic syndrome. Methods: Data for metabolic parameters of 855,282 Koreans in 2012 were extracted and analysed from the data base of Korea Association of Health Promotion. Literature and documents including study protocols, program contents, evaluation reports and published articles were reviewed in relation to increasing effectiveness and efficiency of health education for managing metabolic syndrome. Results: Health education program should be based on participants-focused perspectives, in which clients' demographic characteristics, composition patterns of metabolic risk factors, and readiness of change are appreciated. Development of theory-based strategies for healthy behavior change and evidence-based program components are also important factors in designing and conducting health education intervention. Multiple health behavior intervention can offer a new paradigm for more comprehensive and efficient health education. Implementation fidelity needs to be systematically evaluated and strengthened to improve the validity of the health education efforts. Conclusion: Enhancing participants-focused health education is the responsibility of health education specialists in promoting the management of metabolic syndrome.
