  • In this study, a robust estimation method for the first-order autocorrelation coefficient in the time series model following AR(l) process with additive outlier(AO) is investigated. We propose the L-type trimmed least squares estimation method using the preliminary estimator (PE) suggested by Rupport and Carroll (1980) in multiple regression model. In addition, using Mallows' weight function in order to down-weight the outlier of X-axis, the bounded-influence PE (BIPE) estimator is obtained and the mean squared error (MSE) performance of various estimators for autocorrelation coefficient are compared using Monte Carlo experiments. From the results of Monte-Carlo study, the efficiency of BIPE(LAD) estimator using the generalized-LAD to preliminary estimator performs well relative to other estimators.

  • Purpose: This study examined the immediate effect of Kegel exercise on the vital capacity according to the position. Methods: Seventeen subjects participated in the study (male=7, female=10). The subjects performed Kegel exercise in two positions: sitting and hooklying. The order of exercise was conducted in a random order selected by the subjects to exclude the learning effect. The maximum voluntary ventilation (MVV) was measured using a spirometer. The vital capacity was measured according to the manual in the sitting position before the experiment. After each exercise, the vital capacity was also measured in the same way. One way repeated measures analysis of the variance (ANOVA) was used to compare the vital capacity according to the position, and a Bonferroni test was used for post hoc analysis. Results: Significant differences in vital capacity were observed after exercise than before exercise (p<0.05). Post-hoc analysis, however, revealed no difference in vital capacity according to the position (p>0.05). Conclusion: This study was a preliminary study to determine the vital capacity according to the Kegel exercise and two positions. Nevertheless, further study with several revisions of the number of subjects, duration, and time for intervention will be needed.

  • In order to reduce the dependency on fossil fuels, a policy to increase the production capacity of wind turbine is set up. This can be achieved with increasing the dimensions of offshore wind turbine blades. However, this increase in size implies serious problems of stability and durability. Considering the cost of large turbines and financial consequences of their premature failure, it is imperative to carry out numerical simulations over long periods. Here, an energy-conserving time-stepping scheme is proposed in order to ensure the satisfying computation of long-term response. The proposed scheme is implemented for three-dimensional solid based on Biot strain measures, which is used for modeling flexible blades. The simulations are performed at full spatial scale. For reliable design process, the wind loads should be represented as realistically as possible, including the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) dynamic effects on wind turbine blades. However, full-scale 3D FSI simulations for long-term wind loading remain of prohibitive computation cost. Thus, the model to quantify the wind loads proposed here is a simple, but not too simple to be representative for preliminary design studies.

  • Purpose: This is develop a critical pathway as an useful alternative to the previous management system in order to restriction of medical resources, high expectation of ordinary people to health and application for DRG. Method: In order to preliminary critical pathway, we analyzed 30 cases of medical records of patients who had lobectomy and pneumonectomy at the Yonsei Medical Center in Seoul. An expert validity test was taken for the preliminary critical pathway, and clinical validity test was also done. After these processes, the final critical pathway was developed. Result: Among 10 cases, one was excluded in this study due to the complication after operation. 7 of total 9 patients were discharged earlier than the expected day, 1 patient was just discharged at the expected day, and 1 patient was discharged 4 days later than the expected day at the 12th day after operation. Conclusion: The critical pathway is developed without difficulty because the posoperative management for patients with lobectomy and pneumonectomy is uncomplicated. Therefore, if it is more researched on the clinical application, then the activity of C.Q.I. will be able to sustain the patient oriented management system.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate a Nursing Competency Scale in Simulation (NCSS) for nursing students. Methods: A preliminary version of the NCSS of 14 items was derived from the literature. A panel of seven experts reviewed the preliminary version for content validation and developed 15 items scale. A convenient sample of 195 nursing students completed the survey and two evaluators measured the performances of nine teams in a simulation scenario with NCSS. The data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis, descriptive statistics, independent t-test and Cronbach's alpha. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used in order to estimate the degree of inter-rater reliability. Results: An exploratory factor analysis demonstrated that two factor structures of the NCSS explained 51.1% of the total variance. Two factors were named psychosocial skills and cognitive and psychomotor skills. The mean scores of NCSS between third and 4th grade were significantly different providing support for its known-group validity. Cronbach's alpha was .90 and ranged from .79 to .88. The overall ICC for inter-rater agreement was 0.89 (95% CI 0.03 to 0.98). Conclusion: This scale shows preliminary evidence for validity and reliability. It could be a useful instrument for measuring learning outcome in simulation for nursing students' clinical competency.

  • The purpose of this study was to developing a cooperative learning model utilize storytelling technique to the Preliminary childhood teachers whose learning was in order to improve ability and collaboration of making relationships a teams members by the cooperative learning which was performed on the basis of the confidence after understanding themselves and others. To achieve the purpose, the study was performed by dividing into two stages. First, the draft of storytelling based cooperative learning model was proposed by performing a literature survey and a case study. Second, the draft model was applied to the actual work. And the draft was modified and developed to the final model on the basis of the draft model's strenth and implemented to 39 students who were the sophomore of child care education department and enrolled the profession class of at B college P city for 8 weeks. From the implementation result of the model, it was obtained that there was the positive reaction on applying storytelling technique to the beginning stage of cooperative learning. And adding of 'Re-constitution role sharing team' step in the original steps was suggested. In the end, this model was modified and issued based on the research result. The researchers proposed a cooperative learning model storytelling based for Preliminary childhood teachers which consists 6 phases : (1) understanding cooperative learning (2) Building the team and role sharing team (3) theme setting and theme structuralization (4) Re-constitution role sharing team (5) announcement of the results and evaluating (6) reflection of general.
