National interest in nuclear safety continues to increase. One of the policies that the government is pursuing is to change a temporary position to a permanent position for irregular special security guards of Nuclear power plants. At this point in time, it is urgent to discuss the method of their physical fitness test because duties of special security guards such as arrest and self-defense, unarmed defensive tactics, proficiency with semiautomatic rifle, etc, demands a lot of physical fitness. The purpose of this study is to analyze the physical fitness tests of police, firefighters and soldiers in Korea, US and Japan through literature review. After that, a new fitness test method suitable for special security guards of nuclear power plants was derived through expert meetings. This study also suggested a guideline to analyze the fitness test results so that the developed fitness method can be introduced to the field. For this purpose, physical fitness tests were conducted on 74 subjects. Based on the results of the experiment, the expected records of special security guard fitness tests were presented.

호산구는 염증 반응에 의해 활성화되며, 주로 기생충 감염이나 알러지 질환 등에 대한 면역 작용을 담당한다고 알려져 있다. 호산구 증가증은 약물 반응, 알러지, 국소적인 기생충 감염 등에 의한 경우가 많지만, 자가면역성 질환이나 종양에 의한 경우도 있다. 최근 연구를 통해 위염의 대표적인 원인균 중 하나인 유문나선균 역시 위점막에서 나타나는 조직 호산구 증가증의 원인이 될 수 있다고 밝혀지고 있으나, 유문나선균에 의한 호산구 증가증 발생 기전이나 빈도는 아직까지 확립되지 않고 있다. 위점막 내 호산구 침윤과 동반되는 위염은 복통, 오심, 구토, 설사, 장폐색 등을 일으킬 뿐만 아니라, 아토피성 피부염, 천식, 위식도 역류, 염증성 장질환 등의 발생과 관련이 있다고 보고되고 있다. 위염 및 다양한 관련 질환에 의한 증상은 공중 근무자들의 임무 수행 능력을 저하시켜 항공기 사고를 발생시킬 수 있는 가능성을 가지고 있다는 점에서 항공의학적으로 매우 중요하며, 실제로 호산구성 위염이나 유문나선균 감염의 치료 여부가 공중 근무자에게 일시적 또는 영구적 비행임무정지를 부과할 수 있는 기준이 되기도 한다. 본 연구에서는 대한민국 공군 장병 환자를 대상으로 내시경을 통해 얻은 위점막 조직 내 호산구수를 측정하고, 이를 위점막 표면의 유문나선균 존재 유무와 관련지어 보았다. 111명 중 20명의 환자에서 한 고배율 시야 당 30개 이상의 호산구가 관찰되었고, 63명의 환자의 위점막 표면에서 유문나선균을 확인하였다. 또한 위점막 내 호산구의 밀도와 유문나선균의 존재 간의 관계는 통계학적으로 유의하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 대한민국 공군 장병을 대상으로 하여 조직 호산구 증가증과 유문나선균의 빈도 및 상호 관계를 최초로 분석했다는 점에서 의의가 있으며, 추후 유문나선균이 어떤 기전으로 위점막 조직 내 호산구의 증가에 관여하는지에 대한 연구를 진행하기 위한 기초 자료로서 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study was conducted in order to identify the extent to which Health Belief Model (HBM) constructs explain the likelihood of taking preventive behaviors for AIDS among the young adolescents in Korea. HBM was applied as the theoretical framework for developing questionnaire items in this study. The survey instrument included all of the constructs of Health Belief Model, namely, perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefit, perceived barriers, cue to actions for preventive behaviors concerning AIDS. Additionally, demographic characteristics of the respondents, their sexual experiences, and AIDS Knowledge Test were included in the study. Each of HBM constructs were developed with a 5-point Likert type scale from l(never agree) to 5 (absolutely agree). The survey was conducted with a total of 247 military men in a city on September 18, 1996, using self-reported questionnaire. The results of the study were summarized as follows: 1. Because the subjects for this study were military soldiers, their demographic characteristics were limited to all men, young age, and ummarried. Educational status was evenly distributed between high school graduates and university students. 2. On the average, the respondents started their first sexual relationship at 18 years old and 82.6% of them did not use condom when having their first sexual experience. Thirty-one percent of the subjects had sexual contact with prostitutes and the average number of sexual contact with prostitutes was 5 times during the past 2 years. 3. The results of AIDS Knowledge Test scores demonstrated that the respondents had a high level of knowledge about AIDS. However, some misconceptions about transmission of AIDS through casual contact were still prevailed. Sixty-six percent of the respondents expressed that people infected with HIV should be isolated from the society in order to protect the general public. 4. All the respondents expressed that they had heard about AIDS before. TV was found to be the source which provided information on AIDS most frequently. 5. Among fundamental constructs of Health Belief Model, scores of perceived benefit of taking preventive action against AIDS marked the highest score, while scores of perceived susceptibility were the lowest. As a result of Multiple Stepwise Regression analysis, 13 variable groups were found to predict the preventive action by 25%. Among them, only perceived benefit variables was the most significant factor to explain preventive behaviors by 17%.

This paper introduces an experimental rescue robot, HUBO T-100 and presents the optimal motion control method. The objective of the rescue robot is to extract patients or wounded soldiers in the battlefield and hazardous environments. Another mission is to dispose and transport an explosive ordnance to safe places. To execute these missions, the upper body of the rescue robot is humanoid in form to execute various kinds of tasks. The lower body features a hybrid tracked/legged design, which allows for a variety of mode of locomotion, depending on terrain conditions in order to increase traversability. The weight lifting motion is one of the most important task for performing rescue related missions because the robot must lift an object or impaired person lying on the ground for transferring. Here, dynamics based motion optimization is employed to minimize joint torques while maintaining stability simultaneously. Physical experiments with a real humanoid robot, HUBO T-100, are presented to verify the proposed method.

This research seeks to examine the relationship between multicultural education experiences and the multicultural acceptability of military officers. The sample included 552 Republic of Korea Army officers and non-commissioned officers(NCOs) who were located in Gangwon-Do and Gyeonggi-Do. For the statistical analysis, SPSS 18.0 was used to perform descriptive statistical analysis, frequency analysis, differential verification, and multiple regression analysis. The major analysis results are as follows: First, The multicultural acceptability of the military officers and NCOs, including sub-factors, was above the mean level; in terms of the ranking per sub-factor, the scores were in the order of diversity, relationship, and universality. The experience frequency of the targets and the evaluation was lowest in the educational experience within the military, and the evaluations were in the order of public media, school, and military. Second, The differential verification, depending on the characteristics of the sociology of the population and the existence of the multicultural educational experience, showed that the duration of education(personal factor), marital status(family factor), existence of a foreign relative(family factor), and existence of experience of managing multicultural personnel as soldiers under command(military-related factor) showed a significant difference in multicultural acceptability. Additionally, the existence of multicultural education through schools and public media lead to a significant difference in multicultural acceptability, but the existence of education within the military did not lead to a significant difference. Third, The analysis of the influencing relationship through multiple regression analysis showed that the higher the evaluation of multicultural education through the military, school, and public media, the higher the multicultural acceptability.Therefore, this research proposes multicultural educational plans that may improve the multicultural acceptability of military officers and NCOs as a way to establish a multicultural composition in the army.

Soldiers management is the core of military combat power to preserve and accident prevention. But in unforeseen times and places did the unthinkable soldier causes an accident, the inexperienced primary officer were upset, and can often be quite nervous. And various accidents prevention is also win the war, the reason for existence in the military for combat readiness as a precondition for perfection. There are primary officers at the forefront of this critical mission. However, in spite of the lack of time to work for combat readiness, orders from higher units of troops management and that's level giving a lot of pressure to primary officer. So I made the primary officer military counseling model ike this. Using Primary officer counseling model is possible to rapid and efficient counseling advice against the target client soldier. The efficient counseling is must take precedence on understanding on client soldier deeply. Depth understanding someone needs a lot of effort and time. However, to Primary officer, it is true that they have a lack of condition that are enough to give the time and effort. Therefore, effective counseling and accident prevention is possible to use counseling model through choice and concentration activities.

Objective : Previous studies reported a correlation between the low serum cholesterol level and impulsive behaviors. In this study, we investigate an association between the serum lipid levels and psychological parameters in maladaptive soldiers in the Korean Army. Methods : A total of ninety-six maladaptive subjects and thirty-six normal controls in the Korean army were evaluated with the Korean version of Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (K-BIS), Korean version of Beck Suicidal Ideation Scale (K- BSIS), Korean version of Beck Depression Inventory (K-BDI) and Korean version of Beck Anxiety Inventory (K-BAI). Serum total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL) level were measured by overnight fasting blood sampling. Results : There were no significant differences between the groups in demographic characteristics. Serum total cholesterol levels (t=-2.209, p=0.032), triglyceride levels (t=-4.593, p<0.001), and LDL levels (t=-3.753, p=0.001) of maladaptive subjects were significantly lower than those of normal controls, and maladaptive subjects had higher K-BIS scores than normal controls (t=7.542, p<0.001). Negative correlation was found between LDL levels and non-planning impulsiveness in the maladaptive subjects (r=-0.253, p=0.013). LDL levels (${\beta}=-0.258$, p=0.008) and K-BDI scores (${\beta}=0.266$, p=0.043) emerged as significant predictors for non-planning impulsiveness. Conclusion : These results suggested that LDL level was associated with non-planning impulsiveness. These findings suggested that serum cholesterol levels might be available as a biological marker of impulsiveness. However, more large samples, longitudinal biological study and psychiatric evaluations should be needed to develop a preventive intervention for maladaptive male conscripts in the Korean army.

This study focused on finding out how transformational leadership, emotional leadership, and servant leadership in military organizations affected organizational effectiveness (commission satisfaction, immersion, and organizational citizen behavior) by special forces, standing forces, GTO, independent units on the coast, and educational institutions and training units. Therefore, in order to achieve this research objective, we intend to utilize two studies, the literature and the empirical studies, in this paper. Through the literature study, we also set up a critical consideration of the major leadership theory so far, understand the soldiers of the new generation, set up the background and characteristics of the new leadership theory, transformative leadership and emotional leadership, and set up and study the hypothesis for the organizational effectiveness in the main contents (concepts, components, measurement data) and variables. Empirical research is aimed at empirically analyzing the impact of transformative leadership, emotional leadership, and servant leadership on sub-type and organizational effectiveness, and whether sub-type controls leadership type and organizational effectiveness. organizational effectiveness.
