Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the cognitive functions would be correlated with psychotic symptoms and whether antipsychotic treatments would affect the cognitive functions after 8 weeks. Methods : The thirty-five schizophrenic patients were conducted in this study. The psychopathology was measured using PANSS. The memory function, executive function, and sustained attention were measured using Memory Assessment Scale(MAS), Wisconsin Card Sorting Test(WCST), and Vigilance(VIG) and Cognitrone(COG) in Vienna Test System. After 8 weeks of antipsychotic treatment, we retested the cognitive tests. Results : 1) The cognitive tests after the 8 week's treatment showed significant improvements in memory and executive function in the schizophrenic patients. On the other side, sustained attention did not show improvement. 2) The change of PANSS were correlated with perseverative response, perseverative error and total correct in WCST at baseline. WCST scores at baseline were correlated with negative symptoms, but not positive ones. Conclusion : These study suggests that 1) the impaired sustained attention could be a vulnerability marker in schizophrenia, 2) memory & executive function deficit could be reversible after treatment, and 3) medication might have a benefit in improving the cognitive functions in schizophrenia. Furthermore, the data supports that the better premorbid executive function was, the more favorable was the treatment response in schizophrenic patients. Finally, this study indicates that executive function might be an index of treatment improvement.

Time-encoded imagers (TEI) are important class of instruments to search for potential radioactive sources to prevent illicit transportation and trafficking of nuclear materials and other radioactive sources. The energy of the radiation cannot be known in advance due to the type and shielding of source is unknown in practice. However, the response function of the time-encoded imagers is related to the energy of neutrons or gamma-rays. An improved image reconstruction method based on MLEM was proposed to correct for the energy induced response difference. In this method, the count vector versus time was first smoothed. Then, the preset response function was adaptively corrected according to the measured counts. Finally, the smoothed count vector and corrected response were used in MLEM to reconstruct the source distribution. A one-dimensional dual-particle time-encode imager was developed and used to verify the improved method through imaging an Am-Be neutron source. The improvement of this method was demonstrated by the image reconstruction results. For gamma-ray and neutron images, the angular resolution improved by 17.2% and 7.0%; the contrast-to-noise ratio improved by 58.7% and 14.9%; the signal-to-noise ratio improved by 36.3% and 11.7%, respectively.

There are many researches to identify the rigid body properties from the mass-line obtained by impact hammer testing. The correct rigid body properties of the structure may be estimated if the mass-line of the structure could be obtained exactly. When the structure is mounted by elastic materials, the mass-line cannot be read correctly from the impulse response spectrum. The reason is due to the effects of rigid body modes of mounted structure. In this paper, the effects of rigid body modes of mounted structure to the mass-line are discussed and the method to remove these effects is also presented.

본 연구의 목적은 중학교 1, 2학년 학생들이 함수 개념을 통합적으로 이해하고 있는지를 알아보는데 있다. 함수 개념의 통합적 이해란 함수에 관한 다양한 상황과 표현을 함수의 정의와 유기적으로 연결하여 이해하는 것을 의미한다. 본 연구를 위하여 청주시에 소재한 A와 B 중학교 1, 2학년 학생 160명을 대상으로 선정하여 함수 개념의 통합적 이해 정도를 조사하였다. 통합적 이해의 관점에서 중학교 교과서와 다른 참고문헌을 참고하여 검사지를 개발한 후 현장 교사들과 전문가의 검토를 받아 수정 보완하였다. 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 함수 상황을 표와 식으로 번역하는 것보다 그래프로 번역하는 것을 어려워하였다. 둘째, 함수 여부의 판단에 대한 정답률은 학생들에게 익숙한 상황에서는 비교적 높았지만, 익숙하지 않은 상황에서는 낮게 나타났다. 셋째, 학년, 함수 상황에 따라 함수 판단에 대한 근거가 차이가 있다. 익숙한 상황에 대해서는 1학년은 정의, 2학년은 식의 관점으로 함수여부를 판단하려는 경향을 보였다. 또한 익숙하지 않은 상황에서는 정의와 식보다는 규칙성과 변화의 관점에서 함수를 판단하려는 경향이 나타났다. 넷째, 다양한 상황이나 표현을 일관되게 정의와 연결시킨 학생은 1학년이 12명(14.6%)이고 2학년은 한 명도 없었다. 즉 대부분의 학생들은 함수 개념을 통합적으로 이해하지 못한 것으로 나타났다.

At present Cournot model is one of the most commonly used theories to analyze the gaming situation in oligopoly market. But there exist several problems to apply this model to electricity market. The representative one is to obtain the inverse demand curve able to be induced from the relationship between market price and demand response. In Cournot model, each player offers their generation quantity to accomplish maximum profit, which is accomplished by reducing their quantity compared with available total capacity. As stated above, to obtain the probable Cournot equilibrium to reflect real market situation, we have to induce the correct demand function first of all. Usually the correlation between price and demand appears on the long-term basis through the statistical data analysis (for example, regression analysis) or by investigating consumer utility functions of several consumer groups classified as residential, industrial, and commercial. However, the elasticity has a tendency to change continuously according to the total market demand size or the level of market price. Therefore it should be updated as trading period passes by. In this paper we propose a method for inducing and updating this price elasticity of demand function for more realistic market equilibrium

본 연구는 갱년기 여성들에게 취약하다고 알려진 기억력과 주의집중력, 언어기능을 증진시키기 위해 개발된 모바일 앱 기반 인지훈련 프로그램의 효과를 규명하고자 하였다. 기억력 저하를 호소하는 만 40세에서 60세 사이의 갱년기 여성 40명을 대상으로 실시하였다. 모바일 앱 기반의 인지훈련은 8주간의 프로그램으로 회기당 20~30분, 3회/주 수행하여 총 24회기였다. 조사는 기초조사를 포함한 사전조사와 사후조사로 진행되었다. 연구변수는 객관적 인지기능(전반적 인지기능, 기억력, 주의집중력, 언어기능)과 주관적 인지기능, 삶의 질이었다. 연구결과 전반적 인지기능(t=-8.688, p<.001)과 기억력(t=-4.765, p<.001), 주의집중력 정반응수(t=-7.293, p<.001), 언어기능 중 고빈도 단어에 대한 정반응수(Z=-2.179, p=.036), 저빈도 단어에 대한 정반응수(Z=-2.737, p=.009), 삶의 질(t=-3.358, p=.002)은 모두 통계적으로 유의하였으나 주관적 인지기능은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 기능성 앱을 통해 제공되었된 인지훈련 프로그램은 인지기능을 향상시키는데 도움을 주었으며 전문가의 개입 없이도 가정에서 접근하기 쉬운 인지 중재도구로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

With increasing number construction of high-rise building which has about 40 to 60 floors there have been many kinds of problem which related with usage from vibration. To predict response acceleration, it is important to assess correct natural frequency. However, due to the noise of MEMS sensor, it is difficult to measure dynamic characteristic such as natural frequency when measuring ambient vibration using MEMS sensor within cell phone. Therefore, a comparative analysis on vibration measuring applications was performed after measuring ambient vibration of 2 skyscrappers which have height between 133.5~244.3m that are located in Seoul and Observation tower using I-jishin APP with noise reduction function of MEMS sensor in order to verify the effectiveness of low noise type vibration measurement APP.
