  • The objective of this study is to collect basic data about sex bias in intrahousehold food distribution, by investigating 124 housekeepers living in Seoul . This Survey was performed using questionnaire about the experience of male-female dietary disparity and the attitudes about sex-differential nutrition Results were summarized as follows ; 1. 38% of housekeepers had been experienced in male-female disparity of food distribution at meal time in her childhood. Protein foods(meats & fishes) and special foods were not distributed evenly to both sexes. 2. The major causes of these unbalanced, sex-differential food distribution was rather masculine priority than food shortage. 3. Compared with the past, male-female dietary disparity was disappeared. However, 47.7% of housekeepers took more care for son's meals than daughter's, consciously or unconsciously.

  • This research was attempted to investigate the sex bias in nutrition knowledge, food preference and food roles in the family. 152 couples living in Seoul, Cheonan in the 205∼605 were selected for this research as subjects from October 1 to December 20, 1991. The data analysis was made by way of ire quency, percentage, X2-test using SPSS package. The summarized results are as follows. 1. The survey on the sex bias in nutrition knowledge related heart disease on the subjects showed that there were no significant differences between men and women. But women had a relatively good nutrition knowledge than men. Especially women had a good nutrition knowledge that low sodium diet and exercise are efficient on preventing heart disease. 2. On the food preference, the subject showed significant difference between men and women. Men showed a relatively highest preference for protein food just as pork, fish, and tofu. Women showed a relatively highest preference for bread, fruit and vegetable. 3. On the food roles, the subjects showed that gender difference in household labor regarding food preparation still exit. Food-related activities are clearly still the domain of women in most families. Husbands and wives in younger families tended to think the husbands showed increase their efforts in food related activities.

  • Estimates of genetic correlation between direct and maternal effects for weaning weight of beef cattle are often negative in field data. The biological existence of this genetic antagonism has been the point at issue. Some researchers perceived such negative estimate to be an artifact from poor modeling. Recent studies on sources affecting the genetic correlation estimates are reviewed in this article. They focus on heterogeneity of the correlation by sex, selection bias caused from selective reporting, selection bias caused from splitting data by sex, sire by year interaction variance, and sire misidentification and inbreeding depression as factors contributing sire by year interaction variance. A biological justification of the genetic antagonism is also discussed. It is proposed to include the direct-maternal genetic covariance in the analytical models.

  • 본 연구는 북한이탈주민들의 자기고양 편파가 성격, 사회적 관계, 문화적 측면 중 어느 것에 의해 더 많이 영향을 받는가를 확인하고, 이 자기고양 편파가 우울감과 생활만족감이라는 심리적 적응 지표에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지를 확인하기 위해 이루어졌다. 이를 위해 먼저 북한이탈주민들과 남한 주민들이 자기고양 편파와 문화적 측면에서 얼마나 유사한 수준을 보이는지를 확인할 필요가 있어서 북한이탈주민 대학생과 남한 대학생들을 대상으로 자기고양 편파 수준과 사회적 바람직성을 비교하였는데, 유의미한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 북한이탈주민 121명을 대상으로 자기고양 편파에 영향을 미치는 3가지 측면의 영향력 비중을 확인하기 위해 중다회귀분석을 실시하였는데, 지각된 사회적 지지와 낙관성의 순서대로 높은 설명력을 보였다. 지각된 차별감과 사회적 바람직성은 자기고양 편파와 유의미한 상관을 보였지만, 회귀분석에서는 설명량이 유의미하지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 북한이탈주민의 자기고양 편파는 우울감과 생활만족도 모두에게 부적인 유의미한 설명력을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 주로 남자 북한이탈주민들이 보인 경향성을 반영하는 것으로서 주목을 끄는 것이다. 반면에 여자 북한이탈주민들이 보인 경향성은 기존의 연구 결과와 유사한 것이었다.

  • Purpose: Despite the proliferation of numerous morphometric and anthropometric methods for sex identification based on linear, angular, and regional measurements of various parts of the body, these methods are subject to error due to the observer's knowledge and expertise. This study aimed to explore the possibility of automated sex determination using convolutional neural networks(CNNs) based on lateral cephalometric radiographs. Materials and Methods: Lateral cephalometric radiographs of 1,476 Iranian subjects (794 women and 682 men) from 18 to 49 years of age were included. Lateral cephalometric radiographs were considered as a network input and output layer including 2 classes(male and female). Eighty percent of the data was used as a training set and the rest as a test set. Hyperparameter tuning of each network was done after preprocessing and data augmentation steps. The predictive performance of different architectures (DenseNet, ResNet, and VGG) was evaluated based on their accuracy in test sets. Results: The CNN based on the DenseNet121 architecture, with an overall accuracy of 90%, had the best predictive power in sex determination. The prediction accuracy of this model was almost equal for men and women. Furthermore, with all architectures, the use of transfer learning improved predictive performance. Conclusion: The results confirmed that a CNN could predict a person's sex with high accuracy. This prediction was independent of human bias because feature extraction was done automatically. However, for more accurate sex determination on a wider scale, further studies with larger sample sizes are desirable.

  • 노년기의 활동 가운데 성(性)생활은 매우 중요한 활동임에도 불구하고 지금껏 우리 사회의 유교적 가치관과 노인에 대한 선입견으로 무시되어 온 것이 사실이다. 노골적인 성행위의 노출, 몇 번의 등급보류로 화제가 되었다가 결국 18세 이상 관람가로 결정된 "죽어도 좋아"라는 영화도 노인의 성에 대한 일반인들의 시각을 단적으로 보여주는 예이다. 이런 이유로 노인의 성은 은밀한 곳에서 노골적으로 표면화되어 노인들의 어린이 성추행이나 성범죄, 공원 내 불법매춘 등이 자주 매스컴에 오르내리고 있으며, 노년기의 성을 인정하지 않는 사회문화 분위기로 인해 현실적으로 고통 받는 노인들이 증가하고, 이는 노년의 만족스런 삶의 질 저하에 중요한 요인으로 작용하고 있다. 이와 같은 상황 속에서 만화콘텐츠는 노년기 성교육을 위한 가장 적절한 교구로 활용될 수 있다. 만화콘텐츠의 오락적 기능과 장르적 특성은 대상 노인들에게 성에 대한 이해를 보다 자발적이고, 쉽게 전달할 수 있으며 간접체험에 따른 동기 유발과 효과적인 활동을 위한 교구로서 기능할 수 있다.

  • Scelionid eggParasitoids Play an important role in biological control of some economically important pentatomids. Stink bug (Canthecona furcellatta Wolff,) is an important predator of Tasar silkworm larvae (Antheraea mylitta D.) and causes 30-40 percent loss in tasar silk industry. Psix striaticeps (Scelionid: Hymenoptera) has been found to be an important egg parasitoid. The parasitization potential of f striaticeps is mere than 60 percent and the sex ratio is female oriented. Studies indicate that the maintenance of existing scelionid population by avoiding harmful practices and the augmentation of scelionids either directly releasing them in the field or by indirectly making the field environment more favorable for them is an important aspect to control the pentatomid population in sericulture. Female bias sex ratio is advantageous to increase the parasitoid population in the field. 24-hour-old egg of stink bug and one-day old parasitoid is suitable for producing maximum progeny. 1 : 30 of parasitoid: host ratio is needed to regulate the estimated population in silkworm rearing field.

  • To understand the effect of prenatal stress on sex-specific changes in embryonic and placental growth, a synthetic glucocorticoid (dexamethasone) was administered intraperitoneally at a dosage of 1 mg/kg body weight (BW) (Dex1) or 10 mg/kg BW (Dex10) to pregnant ICR mice at the gestational days 7.5, 8.5 and 9.5 post coitum (p.c.). Embryos and placentas were then harvested at days 11.5 and 18.5 p.c., and their body weight and size were measured following the determination of sex through PCR using Sry specific primers in tail tissues. As a result, female embryos presented reduced fetal body weight and size in Dex1- and Dex10-treated groups than those of control group at the embryonic day 11.5 p.c. Interestingly, the growth seems to be recovered at day 18.5 as there was no difference in growth between control and dexamethasone treated groups. In the case of males, Dex1 induced a decrease in fetal weight in day 11.5 and this pattern was maintained until day 18.5, whereas their growth was not affected by Dex10 treatment. Placental growth showed similar patterns to fetal growth in both sexes but the extent of reduction was not statistically significant in most cases. Placental weights in Dex1- and Dex10-treated group were decreased significantly in male only. The results imply that the effect of prenatal stress is largely sex dependent due to different strategies for growth and survival in a stressful environment.

  • Total number of 237 Hanwoos were purchased from the nationwide fanns based on the different market weights and sex. After slaughtering, they were evaluated to estimate the productivity of carcass components by the sex and market weight, and to predict the beef carcass yield grade equation. The main results in this study were summarized as follows; With respect to carcass characteristics, the yield percentages were different(P < 0.01) among sex groups, but were not different among market weight groups. Sex or market weights showed significant effects on the carcass yield grade(YG) factors(BFT, RA, carcass weight(CW). The YG equation from this study could be expressed as a multiple regression y = 64.74 - 0.0198 ${\times}$ CW(kg) - 5.226 $\time$ BFT(cm)+0.1339 $\time$ RA($cm^2$ $R^2$ = 0.52 Among the YG factors, the BFT was the highest contributor to the YG equation. Compared the previous equation reported in 1992 with the equation from this study, the bias values between predicted value and the actual cutability were 9.17 and 2.39, respectively. In conclusion, the equation estimated from this study was more accurate in predicting the cutability than that from the previous equation reported in 1992.
