The purpose of this study is to provide basic data for the development of school education and employment policy by analyzing the differences between image of meister high school students anticipated by industrial HR managers and image actually perceived. For this, semantic differential method developed by Osgood (1957) was selected as the study tool. To find out images of meister high school students, validity of 50 adjectives suggested by Osgood and 21 additional adjectives used in previous studies was reviewed by 10 experts. Final 20 adjectives were selected by excluding adjectives that fail to satisfy validity of contents. Proportional sampling in metropolitan and non-metropolitan areas was done to select 350 final survey samples. A total of 600 surveys were distributed and 230 were returned. Return rate was 38.3%. The results of this study are as follows. First, image of meister high school students anticipated by industrial HR managers showed average score of 2.49, which indicates a positive image. In addition, factor analysis was performed to classify adjectives into groups, and they were divided into three factors including external factor, way of thinking factor, and internal (personality) factor. Second, image of meister high school students currently perceived by industrial HR managers showed average score of 3.24, which indicates a positive image. Third, image of meister high school students currently perceived by industrial HR managers was not as positive as image they anticipate.

To suggest a more efficient way of delivering information for process control under computerized environment, population stereotypes of colors were tested with 57 Korean subjects. The subjects were asked to associate 11 colors salient at electronic video displays with 55 pairs of adjectives that might be used when they explain the current state of process. The levels of association were evaluated with semantic differential methods by 7 point scales. Based on the multivariate analyses, the 55 pairs of adjectives were grouped into three distinct dimensions. The emotional maps of the 11 colors with respect to each dimension were presented. The Quantitative relationships between the colors and subjective impressions were also calculated by quantification theory I. On the basis of these color associations, it was suggested a general guideline for color coding when delivering process information

Heavy-weight impact sounds generated by impact ball were classified according to the frequency characteristics on the equal loudness contours. Sound quality metrics such as Zwicker's loudness, sharpness, roughness of each classified impact sound were also measured. Loudness spectrum has been regarded as an indication of the characteristics difference of each classified impact sound. The adjectives in Korean expressing the sound quality characteristics of floor impact sounds were also investigated by adoptability and similarity tests. The group of the adjectives was used to evaluate the sound quality of floor impact sound by semantic differential test method.

Current environmental problems of rural area are connected to loss of rural functions which is food security as well as conservation of environment, balanced development of country and succession of traditional culture. To solve these problems, recent projects are focusing on social changes in rural area and conservation of rurality creating values of rural amenity resources. At this point, full implications of rurality which is the various aspects of rurality should be defined to be applied in direct plans to conserve the rurality. In this study, nine attributes of rurality are found as various meanings with adjectives included in image of rurality. For practical use of these adjectives of rurality attributes, we evaluate the list of rural amenity resources and suggested plans for conservation of rural amenity. These attributes can be used as an effective method for village plan which brings one of the attributes into relief.

The purpose of this study is to select the optimal and minimum transmittance for visual amenity in office buildings. This study progressed as follows. The first, we select 5 films with various transmittance based on the current film makers whose films being used on the windows of office building nowadays and the case study of construction. And then we choose 6 kinds of transmittance as evaluation object including plain glass. The second, we made a mock-up models having different transmittance on the southern windows with model of real scale office building. The third, we select 17 pairs of adjectives for the evaluation of visual comfort on interior or exterior conditions with transmittance factor. The fourth, subjective evaluation experiment was done using selected evaluation adjectives and the result was analyzed. The results are as follows : the minimum transmittance appropriate for the office building is 30%∼40% and the optimal transmittance range is 40%∼60%.

This paper described the developed website usability evaluation system in terms of Kansei engineering using neural network. Developed system simultaneously operates with the MS Internet Explorer by entering the target URL for usability evaluation, and the results are learned using neural network. We firstly derived the Kansei adjectives and website usability factors and they were matched by the correspondence analysis. Then, highly corresponded adjectives were implemented on the system for the Kansei evaluation. Finally, the results showed the appropriate efficiency of developed algorithm and system for the website evaluation. If more subjects were used for the system learning, the efficiency of system could be improved.
