The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze whether or not, if a community social service center was affiliated with a governing body running other community social service centers, the center would have better organizational performance in comparing to an independently running center. Data was collected from a nationwide mailed and self-administered survey, which 237 centers out of 343 community social service centers responded. Even if, the response rate was 72%, 218 centers were finally analyzed due to the weakness of reliability and incompleteness. By the way, measurement of organizational performance as the dependent variable has been substituted of the results of nationwide organizational evaluation project as the secondary data. One of findings is that 68% of 218 responding centers appeared to be affiliated with a governing body which running more than three other centers, while 41% being affiliated with a body which running more than five other centers. However, a logistic regression analysis which using organizational performance as the dependent variable, has failed to verify the hypothesis that a center which affiliated with a governing body running other centers has better organizational performance when comparing to an independent center. The researcher assumes that a part of governing bodies has better performance and improves competitiveness while the other larger part of them pursues simple organizational growth. Thus, this situation made that the overall evaluation of being affiliated with a large governing body was not positive.

Shut-in pressure, reopenting pressure and fracture orientation are very important parameters to be evaluated precisely in in-situ stress measurement by hydraulic fracturing. Graphical methods on pressure-time curves have been conventionally used, even though these are seriously dependent on subjectivity of interpreters. So there have been many demands on new method to objectivity in determining parameters. We have developed integrated hydrofracturing data processing program (HYDFRAC), based on nonlinear regression analysis and can be invoked under the Window graphical user interface. HYDFRAC consiste of three routines, that is shut-in pressure routine, reopening pressure routine, and fracture delineation routine. Each of routines include independent modules according to parameter determination methods. Its application to field tests ensured both objectivity and facility in determining of hydraulic fracturing parameters. Determining shut-in pressures at each pressurization cycles, we adopted the exponential pressure-decay method(EPD method), the bilinear pressure-decay-rate method (PDR method), and the tangent intersection method in order to find the pressurization-cyclic tendency of shut-in pressures. The estimated pressure by PDR method exists in the range of the upper and lower values by EPD method, and lies near to the upper value more than the lower. Being the pressurization cycle increased, the range of upper and lower limits come to be stabilized gradually. By graphical superposition method and bilinear pressure-accumulated volume method, reopening pressures were determined. Vertical and inclined fracture attitudes were determined by applying the directional statistics and sinusoidal curve fitting, respectively. The results of evaluation of hydrofracturing parameters showed that statistical methods could enhance the objectivity better than graphical methods.

This study aims to obtain empirical evidence regarding the link between tax avoidance (TA) and the readability of financial statements. This is a quantitative research using Ordinary Least Squares regression analysis which is then processed using STATA 14.0. A total of 278 companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2017-2019 is the data of this study. In detecting TA in a company, this study uses the ETR and CashETR and for the measurement of financial statement readability, this study uses gunning fog index and length of the document. The findings of this study suggest that tax avoidance and clear financial statements are mutually exclusive in the sense that when tax avoidance is practiced, companies will tend to conceal the information conveyed by financial statements. In other words, it is concluded that the more a company engages in tax avoidance, the lower the readability of the company's financial statements. This study provides in-depth evidence that tax avoidance is indirectly related to the disclosure of information by the company. Users of financial statements will realize that the company seeks to make disclosures that are in their best interests to avoid their tax avoidance strategy being detected.

최근 초소형 생체신호를 측정할 수 있는 스마트 워치 등의 장비들이 출시됨에 따라, 체성분, 혈압, 심박동수, 산소포화도 등 다양한 정보를 쉽게 얻을 수 있다. 그러나 사용자에게 신뢰를 얻지 못하는 부분이 바로 정확성이다. 이러한 생체신호는 외부 환경에 대해 민감하며, 대상자 신체 내부의 조건에 따라 변동값이 크다. 특히 혈압 측정은 아직 신체 내부의 조건들의 처리에 따라 결과값이 다르다. 따라서 실험에서는 PPG 알고리즘에서 혈관 상태를 정의하는 인자를 특정값으로 처리하고 PPG를 분석하였으며, PTT 측정에 있어서 최고점 80%, 100%의 두 지점 PTT 측정값이 SBP와 DBP에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 정확도를 높이기 위한 방안 중 하나를 제시하고자 하였다. 연구결과 PPG 최고점 80%에서 측정값 PTT값이 100%에서 측정한 값보다 SBP, DBP 혈압추정에 효과적이며, 변화율 혈압추정의 회귀분석에서 SBP(80%)의 결정계수가 0.6946, DBP(100%)는 0.547로 나타났다. 결론적으로 ECG와 PPG를 통해 PTT를 측정할 경우 PPG 80% 지점의 측정값이 혈압추정의 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있다.

This study investigated the location of grading lines and grading amount defined by 17 women's wear brands for a pants item by target age groups (20-30, 30-40, and 40-50). This study utilized 6th Size Korea data and a script-based on a 3D scan measurement program to analyze the increase rate of body size in order to suggest a grading deviation distribution ratio for the pants using regression analysis. This study found that most brands appropriately divided grading amount at front thigh girth and back hip girth into the side and center by 1:1. Most brands divided the grading amount at the front hip girth into the side and center by 1:1; however, the ratio found from Size Korea is 0.8:1.2 for the 20-30 age group, 0.7:1.3 for the 30-40 age group, and 0.6:1.4 for the 40-50 age group. Regarding the back thigh girth, the brands targeting 20-30s, 30-40s, and 40-50s respectively assigned the grading amount into the side and center by 1:1, 1:1.2, and 1:1.3. However, the ratio found from Size Korea is 1.4:0.6 for the 20-30 age group, 1.7:0.3 for the 30-40 age group, and 1.3:0.7 for the 40-50 age group. The results can be utilized in improving the grading system of the pants item.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the antitumor effects of water extracts of Panax notoginseng (WEPN) in NCI-H460 human lung cancer cell xenografted nude mice. Materials and Methods: We cultured NCI-H460 cell lines and xenografted them to nude mice. The mice were divided into 3 groups; positive control group, NCI-H460+150 mg/kg WEPN-treated group, and NCI-H460+300 mg/kg WEPN-treated group. They had been raised and treated in 28 days. We checked their body weight and tumor weight and volumes twice a week and their absolute organ weight and microhistological observation at the final day. We also calculated their tumor inhibition rate (I.R.), mean survival time and percent increase in life span (% ILS). Results: Body weight of WEPN (300 mg/kg) treated mice tended to slightly greater increase than those of the positive control group, but had no significance. Tumor volume (measurement with a caliper) of WEPN-treated mice tended to be lower than that of the positive control group. Inhibition rate (I.R.) of the WEPN group decreased more than the positive control group, but had no significance. Results of tumor weights and volume (plethysmography) had no significance. Mean survival time and percent increase in life span (% ILS) in the WEPN 300 mg/kg treatment group were higher than those of any other group (p<0.05). In absolute organ weights, the WEPN (150-300 mg/kg) treatment group decreased liver weights (p<0.05). Liver tissue of mice treated with WEPN (300 mg/kg) did not show any specific lesions. Conclusion: We suggest that WEPN may have potential as a growth inhibitor of solid tumors induced by NCI-H460 without any side effects. However, this study has limitations in proving anti-tumor effects of WEPN, so further studies to overcome those limitations will be needed.

Background: Fukushima Medical University (FMU) is located 57 km northwest of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. Our laboratory has been conducting environmental radiation measurements continuously before and after the nuclear accident. We aimed to report the observed behavior of radiation originating from the released radioactive materials due to the accident, predict future trends, and disseminate the results to the local residents. Materials and Methods: Measurements of the counting rate by a diameter of 76 mm and a length of 76 mm thallium-doped sodium iodide (NaI[Tl]) scintillation detector (S-1211-T; Teledyne Brown Engineering Environmental Services) in the central part of the laboratory, and the dose rate outward at the window by NaI(Tl) scintillation detector and digital processor (EMF211; EMF Japan Co. Ltd.) were conducted. Results and Discussion: Measurements by Teledyne S-1211-T showed that in the early stages, radiation from radioactive isotopes with short half-lives was dominant, while radiation from radioactive isotopes with longer half-lives became dominant as the measurement period became longer. Through nonlinear least squares regression, both short and long half-lives were successfully determined. It was also possible to predict how the radiation dose would decrease. The environmental radiation trends around FMU were measured by the EMF211. Both measurements were affected by rainfall and snow accumulation. Decontamination work on the FMU campus impacted measurements by the EMF211 especially. Conclusion: The results of two types of measurements, one at the center and the other at the window side of the laboratory, were presented. By applying a simplified model, radiation from radioactive isotopes with short and long half-lives was identified. Based on these results, future trends were predicted, and the information was used for public communication with the local residents.
