  • In many surveys, one of the most important goals is to obtain reliable and valid responses from respondents. To achieve the goal, a researcher have to make efforts to protect respondents' confidentiality and to reduce the effects of social desirability on answers. The key question of this paper is whether the position of demographic questions have an effect on responses. Two types of questionnaires are considered: one puts the demographic questions at the beginning and the other does at the last. On both types, I asked only a small number of demographic questions which are considered as essential on analytic purposes. The results show no evidence of position effects when the risk to threat confidentiality was minimized.

  • This study aims to evaluate the Higher Diploma in English for the Primary Stage from the diploma students' perspectives. A questionnaire was designed consisting of 25 items distributed in two areas: cognitive/academic preparation and professional/skill preparation. The following statistical analyses were used: means, standard deviations, t-test, and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The study results showed that the level of evaluation of the two domains in the program was low. The study also showed no statistically significant differences between the means of educational diploma students when evaluating the Higher Diploma in English for the Primary Stage due to their academic specialization (Arabic language, social sciences, and Islamic studies). In conclusion, the researcher suggested a developmental mechanism derived from the study results to improve the higher Diploma in English for the Primary Stage.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 최근 심각한 사회적 문제로 대두된 청소년 데이트폭력을 예방할 수 있도록 고등학교 가정과 교과 수업에서 활용할 수 있는 데이트폭력 예방 교수·학습 과정안을 개발하는 데 있다. 연구는 내용 분석 및 내용 요소 선정 단계, 교수·학습 자료 개발 단계, 파일럿 테스트 및 수정 단계의 3단계 절차를 거쳤다. 첫번째 단계에서는 2015 기술·가정 교육과정 문서와 교과서 내용 중 데이트폭력과 연관된 내용이 어떻게 제시되어 있는지 분석하고, 관련 선행연구 내용을 토대로 청소년기 데이트폭력 예방 교육에 필요한 내용요소를 선정하였다. 이를 토대로 두 번째 단계에서는 6차시의 교수·학습 과정안을 개발하고, 2명의 가정과 경력 교사에게 이에 대한 타당도를 검증받고 수정하였다. 마지막 단계에서는 개발된 6차시의 교수·학습 과정안을 고등학교 2개 학급에서 실행한 후 수업 실행 교사와 수업에 대한 학생 의견 조사 결과를 바탕으로 현장 적합성이 떨어지는 부분은 수정 보완하여 최종적인 데이트폭력 예방 교수·학습 과정안을 개발하였다. 청소년의 데이트폭력 문제 예방을 위해서는 폭력으로부터 안전한 사회적 환경을 마련하고 이성교제가 시작되기 이전부터 폭력 예방 교육을 실시해야 한다. 가정과 수업 시간에 본 교수·학습 과정안을 활용하여 학생들이 폭력에 대한 민감성을 키우고 문제 상황에서 현명히 판단하고 대처할 수 있는 역량을 키우게 되기를 기대한다.

  • 인터넷과 정보통신기술이 급변하는 디지털 환경에서 학술연구자들은 종전보다 더 복잡하고, 다양한 매체를 통해 학술정보를 활용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 달라진 정보환경에서 국내 박사과정 학술연구자들의 정보요구와 정보추구행태를 알아보기 위해 5개의 범주내에서 13개의 질문 항목을 도출하고 이를 통해 집단 면접조사를 하였다. 5가지 범주는 (1) 일반적인 학술정보 활용 패턴 (2) 학술정보 활용 이유(태도), (3) IT Skill과 정보활용능력, (4) 물리적 도서관 이용 대비 전자정보 접근, (5) 전자정보 활용과 관련된 전반적인 견해 등이다. 특히, 인문사회분야 학술연구자들과 과학기술분야 학술연구자들을 균등하게 선발하여 면접조사를 함으로써 두 집단간의 공통점과 차이점을 비교 분석하는데 연구의 주안점을 두었다. 연구결과 학술정보 활용 목적, 정보활용능력, 인쇄자료 대비 전자자료 활용 비율, 연구 아이디어나 지식을 얻는 경로 분야에서는 차이가 없었으며, 학업이나 연구와 관련하여 주로 활용하는 자료, 즐겨찾는 학술 포털사이트 분야에서는 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Social media is used for various purposes including entertainment, communication, information search, and voicing their thoughts and concerns about a service, product, or issue. The social media data can be used for information mining and getting insights from it. The World Health Organization has listed COVID-19 as a global epidemic since 2020. People from every aspect of life as well as the entire health system have been severely impacted by this pandemic. Even now, after almost three years of the pandemic declaration, the fear caused by the COVID-19 virus leading to higher depression, stress, and anxiety levels has not been fully overcome. This has also triggered numerous kinds of discussions covering various aspects of the pandemic on the social media platforms. Among these aspects is the part focused on vaccines developed by different countries, their features and the advantages and disadvantages associated with each vaccine. Social media users often share their thoughts about vaccinations and vaccines. This data can be used to determine the popularity levels of vaccines, which can provide the producers with some insight for future decision making about their product. In this article, we used Twitter data for the vaccine popularity detection. We gathered data by scraping tweets about various vaccines from different countries. After that, various machine learning and deep learning models, i.e., naive bayes, decision tree, support vector machines, k-nearest neighbor, and deep neural network are used for sentiment analysis to determine the popularity of each vaccine. The results of experiments show that the proposed deep neural network model outperforms the other models by achieving 97.87% accuracy.

  • Purpose: This prospective study aimed to examine the development of premature infants at 12 and 24 months and to explore the factors related to their development. Methods: Of the 80 premature infants who were recruited, 52 participants at 12 months and 31 participants at 24 months were included in this study. The development of the infants was examined using the Korean Bayley scale of infant development-II. Postnatal depression, husband's support, social support, mother-infant attachment, and the home environment were assessed using self-report questionnaires completed by the mothers and through the researcher's observations. Results: There was significant difference between normal and delay group at psychomotor development at 12 months depending on social support at 6 months (t=2.03, p=.049). Mother-infant attachment at 6 months (r=.71, p<.001), 12 months (r=.37, p=.043), and 24 months (r=.40, p=.026), as well as social support (r=.38, p=.034) and the home environment (r=.41, p=.022) at 24 months, were correlated to mental development at 24 months. There was a significant positive correlation between mother-infant attachment at 6 months and psychomotor development at 24 months (r=.40, p=.046). Conclusion: To reduce the risk of developmental delay and to promote healthy development in premature infants, early nursing interventions targeting mother-infant attachment, the home environment, and the mother's social support structure are needed.

  • A citation analysis utilizes the relations among citations and is the most popular bibliometric method. This analysis is based on 1) the evaluation by paper, journal and researcher of the research output, 2) the identification of emerging research topics, 3) the production of a map of the intellectual structure of the research domain and 4) various services for academic information. However, this approach has a limitation in that a citation is treated in a very simple manner, even though the purpose of citation can vary greatly. To address this problem, new approaches have been studied that take into account the citation context. This research separates the citations according to the citation functions and tries to conduct an analysis according to the newly classified citations. Furthermore, research on the citation summarization and visualization based on both the citation context and the citation function of the citations was also attempted. However, since there are very few studies related to citation context in South Korea, more research and development is needed in this area. This study analyzes the status of the research in terms of the citation context. For this, we utilized social network analysis methods.
