The purpose of this study was to measure the effects of the perceived sacrifice, service quality, value and satisfaction on the intention to revisit restaurants. A total of 273 questionnaires were completed. The equation model was used to measure the causal effects. The results demonstrated that the confirmatory factor analysis model provided an excellent model fit. The modified model yielded a significantly better fit to the data than the service quality model, and accounted for a greater share of the variance in intention to revisit than the service quality model. The effects of value and service quality on intention to revisit were statistically significant in both the service quality model and modified model. The effects of perceived sacrifice and service quality on value were statistically significant in the service quality model and modified model. As expected, service quality had a significant effect on satisfaction in the modified model. Satisfaction had a significant effect on intention to revisit in the modified model. Satisfaction also had a significant effect on service quality in the service quality model. Moreover, service quality had an indirect influence on intention to revisit through value and satisfaction in the modified model. Service quality had an indirect influence on the intention to revisit through value in the service quality model. The overall findings offer strong empirical support for the intuitive notion that improving service quality can increase favorable intention to revisit, and decrease unfavorable intention to revisit.

This study identified the use types of a home help service and the level of service quality and reviewed the extent of their effects on consumer satisfaction. As a result of measuring the service quality in terms of support, assurance, reliability, empathy and responsiveness, a high overall reliability was demonstrated in the service. The consumer satisfaction with the home help service was discovered as being high, in general. Meanwhile, with the female research participants, the lower the service fee was perceived to be, the higher the consumer satisfaction. The quality assessment items concerning support and reliability were found to be important variables which were influential on consumer satisfaction. Therefore, it has been shown to be imperative to prepare political alternatives regarding the development of the service standard in order to protect user's rights, offer relevant information, and ensure reliability in the home help service.

For a period of 5 days, the quality of breads with Paecilomyces japonica powder were investigated using chemical, sensory, and mechanical evaluations at $25^{\circ}C$. The result of analysis of chemical properties revealed that the pH value of dough was increased as the amount of Paecilomyces japonica powder increased, but volume of dough and baking loss rate were decreased. Breads with 1% and 2% Paecilomyces japonica powder showed a good overall preference in sensory evaluation. As storing time passed. moisture content, lightness, and redness were decreased in all breads, but yellowness increased. Hardness and gumminess of texture analysis were increased as storing time passed, but springiness decreased. Springiness of the mechanical properties was negatively correlated with pH value of dough and volume of bread, while was positively correlated with volume of dough and baking loss rate. In the analysis of correlation between sensory and mechanical properties showed that hardness of mechanical properties had negative correlation with softness, moistness, and springiness. Cohesiveness of mechanical properties had positive correlation with acceptability.

The purpose of this study was to make Korean yaksun chicken sauce with milk vetch roots and angelica roots. Four different amounts of angelica roots were added to chicken sauces, and general characteristics were measured. The pH values of sauces increased with decreasing Angelica root content. On the other hand, sugar contents, solid contents, and lightness of sauces decreased with decreasing Angelica root content. In a palatability test, sauces with 1 g and 2 g of angelica roots scored high in color, taste, flavor, and overall acceptability. Microbial cell counts of sauces were not significantly different according to the amount of angelica roots. Further, hydroxyl radical scavenging activities and polyphenol contents of sauces were not significantly different except for those of sauces with 1 g of angelica roots. Lastly, flavonoid contents of sauces significantly decreased with decreasing amount of angelica roots.

The purpose of this study was to optimum the desirable mixture ratio of aronia powder to rice flour for preparation of sulgidduk. The moisture of samples ranged from 39.93% to 42.80%. The pH of samples decreased with increasing amounts of aronia powder. L- and b-values decreased, while a-value increased, with increasing amounts of added aronia powder. As the level of aronia powder increased, hardness of samples decreased while their springiness and chewiness increased. As aronia powder content increased, 1,1-diphenyl-2picriylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging also significantly increased. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM; ${\times}30$) showed that air cell size on the sulgidduk surface increased with amount of aronia. Consequently, the addition of 3% aronia powder to rice flour was determined to be best formula for aronia sulgidduk in terms of sensory qualities such as appearance, flavor, texture, taste and overall acceptability.

This research was performed to investigate the potential use of Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) as an ingredient to improve the biological function and flavor of kimchi. The quality characteristics were studied for kimchi with or without Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medicus (CBM kimchi) during fermentation for 25 days at $10^{\circ}C$. The pH changes of CBM kimchi were slower than those of control but did not show any significant difference after addition of Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medicus during fermentation. The titratable acidity of CBM kimchi was higher than that of control. The log number of total bacteria was lower about 1.5 $log_{10}$ cycle in CBM kimchi than in control during fermentation. However, lactic acid bacteria did not show significant difference between CMB kimchi and control. Sensory qualities of kimchi such as color, taste, flavor and overall acceptability were significantly improved by addition of 3% Capsella bursa-pastoris (L.) Medicus(p<0.05).

The effects of charcoal powder on fermentation of dough and quality of bread were investigated. Charcoal powder was added to wheat flour at concentrations of 0, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.20% The fermentation time of dough with charcoal was reduced by 4 ~12 min compared with that of dough without charcoal. The loaf volume index of bread with 0.05% charcoal powder slightly increased. Bread with charcoal powder showed higher textural properties ( strength, hardness, springness, gumminess, and brittleness) except for cohesiveness than bread without charcoal powder. Color $L^{\ast}$ and $b^{\ast}$ values and hue angle of the top crust decreased while $a^{\ast}$ value increased with increasing charcoal concentrations. $L^{\ast}$ and $a^{\ast}$ values of the inside of bread decreased while hue angle increased with increasing charcoal concentrations. No significant difference in Pleasant taste between bread with and without charcoal powder was observed. However, bread with 0.1% charcoal powder showed the highest scores for pleasant odor, color, and overall acceptability.
