Objectives: Low adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) therapy in pregnant women with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) increases the risk of virus transmission from mother to newborn. Increasing mothers' knowledge and motivation to access treatment has been identified as a critical factor in prevention. Therefore, this research aimed to explore barriers and enablers in accessing HIV care and treatment services. Methods: This research was the first phase of a mixed-method analysis conducted in Kupang, a remote city in East Nusa Tenggara Province, Indonesia. Samples were taken by purposive sampling of 17 people interviewed, consisting of 6 mothers with HIV, 5 peer facilitators, and 6 health workers. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, focus group discussions, observations, and document review. Inductive thematic analysis was also performed. The existing data were grouped into several themes, then relationships and linkages were drawn from each group of informants. Results: Barriers to accessing care and treatment were lack of knowledge about the benefits of ARV; stigma from within and the surrounding environment; difficulty in accessing services due to distance, time, and cost; completeness of administration; drugs' side effects; and the quality of health workers and HIV services. Conclusions: There was a need for a structured and integrated model of peer support to improve ARV uptake and treatment in pregnant women with HIV. This research identified needs including mini-counseling sessions designed to address psychosocial barriers as an integrated approach to support antenatal care that can effectively assist HIV-positive pregnant women in improving treatment adherence.

In this study, the Pine & Gilmore(1998) and Schmitt(1999, 2003), based on previous studies. Recent trends in large department stores and distribution outlets, discount stores and large retail centers, such as the consumer's experience is divided into internal and external fashion brand stores navigation study. Fashion Brand Stores are defined as the inside of the fashion brand store of the form that sells only the products of a fashion company's brand. Meanwhile, shopping center is defined as all the places at the inside and out of the shopping center excluding the inside of the fashion brand store. Likewise, definitions are clarified as such for use. As for the research method for this study, semi-structured focus group interviews were used since they could provide many more data compared to in-depth interviews. Accordingly, data was collected while carrying out free discussions while two to three subjects listened to each other's opinion regarding the key words raised by the interviewer and while thinking about their experience at the inside and outside of the fashion brand stores. As for the subjects, female consumers between the ages of 20 and 50 were targeted, and the interviews conducted with four, seven, four and three women in their 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s, were used, respectively. Likewise, there were a total of 18 subjects. Exploratory Study of Customer Experience area was classified into integration of significance and categorization. In particular, the contents were classified into elements of experience inside the fashion brand stores and fashion brand stores outsider experience in the shopping center elements and the elements of the common experience of fashion stores and shopping centers based on the results concerning the key contents identified in-depth from the customer aspect. The key experience elements at the inside of fashion brand stores were identified as VMD experience, emotional experience, and experience of the service provided by sales representatives.

본 예비연구는 강의중심학습 (LBL) 방식 과 문제중심학습 (PBL) 방식이 기초의학 지식의 이해력의 향상에 미치는 영향을 사후-사전 검사의 변화량의 차이의 비교를 통해서 그리고 과학적 추론을 동반한 반 구조화된 문제해결의 질에 미치는 영향을 사후 검사의 차이의 비교를 통해서 평가하는 것이 목적이다. 이 반 구조화된 문제는 다섯 개- 샘플 크기, 원인과 결과의 연구설계, 위험요인 구성, 데이터의 통계 분석, 결과 해석- 의 요소를 포함하고 있다. 본 실험은 2004년 이 주에 걸쳐 서울대학교 치과대학 100명의 학부 학생들을 대상으로 실시되었다. 상이한 두 학습들이 실시되기 전 과 후에 감염방지와 예방에 관한 48개의 사지 혹은 오지 선다형의 문제가 학생들에게 주어졌다. 또 두 학습이 종결된 후에 역학관련 반 구조화된 문제를 해결하도록 하는 과제를 통하여 문제해결의 능력에 미치는 두 학습 방식의 영향을 분석하였다. 사전-사후 테스트의 결과 기초의학 지식의 이해 향상 정도는 두 그룹 간의 유 의미한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 반면, 반 구조화된 문제해결의 질은 문제중심학습 방식이 유 의미하게 높았으며 (p=.029), 특히 문제 해결 과정에서 나타난 인과성 연구설계 (p=.000)와 결과 해석(p=.001)에 관한 과학적 추론의 점수가 유 의미하게 우수하였다. 결론적으로 동일한 시간 동안 문제중심학습 방식은 강의중심학습 방식에 비해 하위 기초지식의 이해를 위한 학습 환경에서 불리하지 않았을 뿐만 아니라 상위 인지 활동인 문제해결 과정에서 과학적 추론을 개발하는데 공헌 하였다.

GIS 분야에서 데이터 교환의 표준으로 OGC(Open Geospatial Consortium)에서 GML(Geography Markup Language)이 제안되어 웹 어플리케이션이나 공간 데이터 교환에서 사용이 일반화 되어가고 있다. 또한, 공간 데이터를 효과적으로 수집하여 의사결정을 지원하기 위한 시스템인 공간 데이터 웨어하우스에서도 GML 데이터를 추출하여 소스 데이터로 활용하는 것이 요구되고 있다. 하지만 GML 은 반구조형식(semi-structured)의 데이터 형식을 가진다. 따라서 기존 구조적인 데이터와는 추출하는 방식이 다르므로 GML 의 특징에 맞는 공간 데이터 추출이 수행되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 공간 데이터 웨어하우스에서 GML 기반의 공간 데이터 소스를 추출할 때, 중복되는 공간 객체를 하나의 표현으로 통합하여 효율적으로 적재하는 기법을 제안한다. 이는 GQuery를 이용하여 GML 데이터를 추출한 후, GML 스키마를 메타데이터에서 관리하는 스키마 정보와 비교하여 공간 데이터 웨어하우스에 통합된 공간 데이터를 제공하는 기법이다. 성능평가에서는 기존의 GML 데이터를 추출하는 기법과 제안기법과의 비교를 통하여 제안 기법의 기존 기법에 비해 평균적으로 약 9.95%의 성능향상을 보였다.
