International financial crises of the mid-l990s are widely perceived as the trigger that prompted recognition of the need for a new data quality management by the OECD, IMF, Eurostat and individual statistical agency. The official statistics improvements schedule in Korea was launched in 1996 as part of a broader internationally-agreed-upon initiative to strengthen transparency and promote good governance practices. These new initiatives are based on the Total Quality Management(TQM) movement and other management frameworks broadening the concept of quality beyond the traditional statistician's concepts of data quality. This paper aims to evaluate the statistics quality of Land Price Index. Evauation Method is the National Statistical Office's Data Quality Management System which focus on accuracy, timeliness, relevance, accessibility, comparability, serviceability, efficiency.

The aim of this study is to analyze the transition of the building of Daegu City Library during the Japanese Colonial Period. To do this, the articles of newspaper and periodicals, books, official documents, official gazettes, statistics, publications of official history of Daegu City Library and research papers were widely collected and cross-checked with each others. As the result of this study, the precedent researches and official history publications related to Daegu City Library had some important errors including the date of the municipal ordinance for Daegu City Library, the first building of Daegu City Library and the date of the breaking-ground, completion and opening for the new building. It is assumed that these errors were generated from the shortage of bibliographic information and full-text databases at those time. At the end of this study, additional research about the history of Daegu City libraries during the Japanese Colonial Period were suggested.

The high unemployment rate is one of the major problems in most countries nowadays. Hence, the demand for small area labor statistics has rapidly increased over the past few years. However, since sample surveys for producing official statistics are mainly designed for large areas, it is difficult to produce reliable statistics at the small area level due to small sample sizes. Most of existing studies about the small area estimation are related with the estimation of parameters based on cross-sectional data. By the way, since many official statistics are repeatedly collected at a regular interval of time, for instance, monthly, quarterly, or yearly, we need an alternative model which can handle this type of panel data. In this paper, we derive the generalized kernel estimating equation which can model time-dependency among response variables and handle repeated measurement or panel data. We compare the proposed estimating equation with the generalized linear model and the generalized estimating equation through simulation, and apply it to estimating the unemployment rates of 25 areas in Gyeongsangnam-do and Ulsan for 2005.

The purpose of this study is to summarise the educational meanings of Official Foreign Language Schools(hereafter, OFLS) in Korea, 1895-1906. Especially, I try to find out the foreign language policy of the Joseon Dynasty and the comparative superiority between six foreign language schools - Japanese School, English School, French School, Russian School, Chinese School, and German School - through the traits of teachers and the change of students numbers at the Regulation Period. As a part of Kabo Reforms, the government had abolished the of Civil Service Examination System and status system, and foreign languages worked as a cultural capital to acquire modern civilization and to escalate one's social status. The results were as follows: Firstly, the OFLS have to be regarded as one of the highest educational institute during the Regulation Period. The eligibility of the OFLS was over 15 years old, but most of the incoming students were over 20 years old. Secondly, many of the OFLS's teachers were specialists of military, diplomat and mechanics. Especially, Martel, the teacher of French school played an important role for the neutral diplomacy policy of the Great Korean(Dae-Han) Empire during the Regulation Period. Thirdly, the recruit of new members of the OFLS was affected by the political and social circumstances at that time. Fourthly, the statistics of incoming students during the Regulation Period was concentrated on Chinese school, French school, and English school in due order. Thus, it differed from the commonly accepted ideas of students' statistics which was concentrated on English School and Japanese School. Fifthly, the OFLS were not only for the training of official interpreters(譯官通事), but also the cultivation of civil servants who could become statesman.

In Korea, the small area estimation method is currently unpopular in generating o cial statistics. Because it may be difficult to determine the reliability for small area estimation, although small area estimation ha a sufficiently good advantage to generate small area statistics for Korea. This paper inspects the method of making small area unemployment through the small area estimation method. To estimate small area unemployment we used an EBLUP-type estimator based on a logistic linear mixed model. To evaluate the EBLUP-type estimator we accomplished the real data analysis and simulation experiment from the population and housing census data. In addition, small area estimates are compared to large sample survey estimates. We found the provided method in this paper is highly recommendable to generate small area unemployment as the official statistics.

In Korea, The buildings are getting higher and bigger, and also the fire risk is getting increased. The PBD was introduced in 2009 for the fire safety of these buildings, but the study on making scenario based on actual case of fire is insufficient. Therefore on this study, it will conduct an experiment about initial fire classification and making fire scenario based on that actual fire statistic investigation classification of PBD buildings as official and commercial facilities.

A self-selected web survey was utilised to Investigate the preference of online holiday travellers to the Internet functions applied to the extensive decision-making process by adoptingthe Canberra tourism website as a case study in Australia. The use of web-based surveys is not at a mature stage, compared to other traditional surveys such as mail survey and telephone survey that have already-known home addresses and phone numbers as a frame population. The adopted web survey relies on non-probability sampling without a known frame population thatcan cause serious research errors. Therefore, the results of this study need to be compared to other official published statistics in order toverify reliability or credibility of the self-selected web survey. This study discusses the extent to which the self-selected web survey can be validated by finding the significant difference not only between the demographic results of web survey and those of official statistics released by several articles including the Graphic, Visualizations and Usability Center (GVU) at Georgia Tech research but also between the travel background features and those of ‘ACT Tourism Masterplan 2001-2005’published by the Canberra Tourism ＆ Event Corporation (CTEC) located in Australian Capital Territory (ACT).

This study used 286 men living without a spouse in the regions of Daejeon, Sejong, Chungnam and Chungbuk to review the effects that expressive sexual coping behavior have on the prostitution attitude. During this process, the moderating effect of the factor, 'perception of crime deterrence', was verified. The data were analyzed using PASW Statistics 18.0.Major findings are as follows; First, the attitude towards prostitution found in study subjects was higher than average, showing that they had a positive perception. Second, factors affecting the attitude towards prostitution were identified to be education level, health status, employment status, social participation, sexual coping behavior, official and unofficial deterrence as part of crime deterrence. Third, official deterrence as part of crime deterrents appeared to have a moderating effect in the relation between sexual coping behavior and prostitution attitude. Based on these findings, the study presents practical measures to deter prostitution of spouseless men.

Objectives: This study aimed to analyze the official Instagram accounts of dental hygiene departments, focusing on the relationship between the number of posts and the number of followers. Additionally, the study sought to determine the status of these Instagram accounts through classifying posts by type. Methods: A total of 49 official Instagram accounts from Korean dental hygiene departments were selected as subjects. Correlation and regression analyses were conducted using SPSS ver. 26.0 Statistics software to determine the correlation between the total number of posts and the number of followers. Results: The results indicated a statistically significant difference in follower numbers between 3 year colleges (Mean: 284.11) and 4 year universities (Mean: 167.86), based on university classification (p=0.035). Correlation analysis demonstrated that the number of posts had a significant effect on the number of followers (r=0.338, p=0.017). Conclusions: The findings showed that the differences in Instagram follower numbers and the number of posts among different university classifications significantly influenced the number of followers.

In this paper, we investigate the generalized estimating equation which can model time-dependency among response variables and is useful to analyze repeated measurement or longitudinal data. We compare with the generalized linear model and the generalized estimating equation through the estimation of unemployment rates of 25 areas in Gyeongsangnam-do and Ulsan. The data consist of the status of employment and some covariates from January to December 2005.
