Purpose: Children with cerebral palsy generally have a high incidence of respiratory problem, resulted from poor coughing, airway clearance problem, respiratory muscle weakness, kyphoscoliosis and so forth. The purpose of this study is to investigate the possible factors that can be affected to forced vital capacity (FVC) in children with cerebral palsy. Methods: Total thirty six children with diplegic and hemiplegic cerebral palsy were recruited in this study. They were evaluated by general demographic data (i.e., age, gender, body mass index (BMI)) and variables related to respiratory functions (i.e., chest mobility, waist mobility, maximal phonation time, and maximum inspiratory/expiratory pressure (MIP/MEP)). The correlation between forced vital capacity and the rested variables were analyzed, and multiple regression with stepwise method was conducted to predict respiratory function, in terms of FVC as the dependent variable, and demographic and other respiratory variables as the independent variable. Results: FVC showed a significant correlation with waist mobility (r=0.59, p<0.01), maximal phonation time (r=0.48, p<0.05), MIP (r=0.73, p<0.01), and MEP (r=0.60, p<0.01). In addition, the multiple regression analysis model indicated that FVC could be predicted by the assessment of each waist mobility and MIP. Conclusion: These finding suggest that respiratory function is related to body size and respiratory muscle strength, and that BMI, waist mobility, and MIP can be predictable factors to affected respiratory function in term of FVC.

This thesis takes it an aim to analyze and compare the visual images which results from attaching the voluminous changes of the waist gathering to the basic Sarrouel pants, one of the Islamic costume, and also from the three body type influenced by these changes. The method of the investigation was to select basic designs of the Sarrouel pants, then the three pieces of the experimental clothes called pattern 1(50%), pattern 2(100%), and pattern 3(150%) were made respectively. The 3 types of the adult women were selected as models in a way to represent the S(S1), M(S2), L(S3) the female body indices of the K. S. The models wearing the 3 types of experimental clothes were taken pictures from the front, side and back, which the pictures were used for the evaluations for the visual effects. For the evaluation, the questionaire from 12 to 18, associated with the body types and images respectively were completed and collected in an investigative way. The visual effects by the waist gathering and body size are composed body and image emerged the four factors. Conclusively, the volume of the waist gathering gives a benefit only in terms of the appropriateness in which the voluminous gatherings compensate for the defects of the body type while too much gathering leads to the negative effects. The visual effects from the increased gathering gives the impressions of the more activity with the snugness as it decreases the feminine effects. The evaluation indices like the stiffness or the masculine images might be more or less predominant in this case. This might be ascribed to the fact that the Sarrouel pants were originated from the men's trousers in a real sense.

The purpose of this study is to measure Korean, Chinese and Chosunjok college women's body part sizes, and then, classify their body shapes according to the drop value(hip circumference-chest circumference) as well as their statures, and thereupon, comparatively analyze the statistical distribution of their major body part measurements and thereby, provide for some basic data useful to the development of quality fitting apparels exportable to China. The results of this study can be summarized as follows; Most of Korean and Chinese college women were found to belong to the body type of "N" body shape, while many of Chosunjok college women belonged to "H" body shape body type characterized by normal stature but small difference between hip and chest circumferences. The most prevailing body type of Korean and Chinese college women next to "N" type(65%, 51%) was "H" (23%, 35%), followed by "A" type(12%, 14%), while that of Chosunjok college women was "H" type (54%), followed by "N" (40%) and "A" type (6%). On the other hand, in terms of distribution of major body part sizes, there was found a wide difference between Chinese and Korean college women. Chosunjok college women had similar body part sizes to Korean college women's in such measurements as waist back length, shoulder-to-shoulder length, front interscye length, back interscye length, under-chest circumference and weight, while having simliar body part sizes to Chinese college women's in such measures as stature, arm length, waist front length, waist side-hip line length, crotch length, head circumference, neck-root circumference and waist circumference.

The purpose of this study was to make a pants pattern suitable for women 70 to 85 years of age, then analyze that- pattern's shape, size, appearance, fit, allowance and air gap. Participants made the pattern using 3D simulation program DC Suite version 5.1. The results suggest a design method suitable for the lower-body shapes of elderly women. In external appearance, the A-type earned the highest evaluation in all items except the allowance of the back waist and back hip. The L type earned the highest evaluation in the allowance of back waist and hips. The A-type's, back waist appeared set at an angle that did not match the body shape of an old-old aged woman in the center-back-line setting. Therefore, the pattern method of A-type combined with L-type's method of center back, produces an excellent pants pattern. Evaluation of the air gaps among patterns revealed that; the A-type showed the largest air gap in waist and hip circumference and the smallest air gap in thigh circumference. The waists, abdomen, and hip circumferences of older women often become larger while their legs become slimmer. This study accounted for those factors in determining a pattern suitable for the lower-body shape of old-old aged women. However, participants only analyzed four patterns and compared them with women 70 to 85, years of age. Therefore, it is necessary to develop industrial patterns applicable to a wide age group.

본 연구는 미국 유타주에 거주하는 10-15세 어린이와 청소년들의 허리둘레가 electronic pedometer (전자 보수계)의 타당성과 신뢰성에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 비만집단 10명(HWC, BMI $28.91\pm3.07$)과 일반집단 10명 (LWC, BMI $18.05\pm1.55$)으로 총 20명(14 Hispanic and 6 Caucasian)의 어린이와 청소년들을 대상으로 실시하였다. Electronic pedometer 의 신뢰성을 측정하기 위하여 각 어린이는 Yamax SW-701 electronic pedometer 를 허리에 차고 15계단 오르기와 15계단 내리기를 3 sets 실시한 결과, HWC 집단이 LWC 집단보다 더 많은 보수를 기록했으나 오르기와 내르기 시행의 주 효과는 유의한 차이가 없었고, 또 두 집단간의 상호작용에도 유의한 차이가 없었다. 보수를 측정하여 pedometer의 타당성에 허리둘레가 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위하여 각자의 보행 속도에 따라 400 m를 걷게 한 결과 주 효과는 두 집단 간에 유의한 차이가 있었으나 counting technique (hand-counted vs. pedometer counted)의 주 효과는 유의한 차이가 없었으며, 또 400 m 걷기의 시기와 group별 시기의 상호작용도 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이러한 결과는 pedometer가 walking steps 측정에 HWC 집단과 LWC 집단에 동일하게 타당도가 있음을 나타내고 있다. 추후의 연구에서는 어린이들의 walking speed, pedometer tilt angle, leg length, 및 stride length 등을 고려한 연구가 필요하다고 사료된다.

The objective of this study is to examine the current status of manufacturing formal knit jackets for middle-aged women. Fifteen manufacturers specializing in formal knitwear brands were chosen as the study subjects, and interviews and questionnaires were used with patterners and designers. The questionnaire was composed of 27 items and began with general questions, such as how the jackets were manufactured. Specific questions, such as materials and sewing method, were also considered further on. The results are as follows: First, as for the structure of the knit jacket manufacturer, seven out of fifteen manufacturers directly manufactured knit jackets in their own factory, while the manufacturing was comprised of 20% woven jackets and 80% knit jackets for all manufactures. Second, as for the type of yarn mostly used in knitting the fabric for the jackets, satin yarn and wool were used mostly for F/W with Plain and Half Milano rib stitches as the type of knit with a gauge of 12G and 7G. Third, as for the margin between the product size of the target brand and the size of the body at the time of designing a knit jacket pattern, the investigation of the actual state of manufacturing showed that the margin at the bust was B+4.8cm, the waist was W+6.9cm, and the hip girth was H+5cm. Therefore, the bust and hip girth of the knit jackets were designed to be smaller than those of the bust and hip girth lines of non-flexible woven jackets. On the contrary, the waist measurement of non-flexible woven jacket was designed to be smaller than the knit jacket. It was found that the side line of the knit jacket was expressed with greater give as compared to that of the non-flexible woven jacket.
