The number of traffic accidents caused by elderly drivers over the age of 65 has surged over the past ten years from 37,000 to 274,000 cases. The proportion of elderly drivers' accidents has jumped 3.1 times from 1.2% to 3.7% out of all traffic accidents, and traffic safety organizations are pursuing diverse measures to address the situation. Above all, connecting safety measures with an in-depth research on behavioral and physical characteristics of elderly drivers will prove vital. This study conducted an empirical research linking the driving characteristics and traffic accidents by elderly drivers based on the Driving Aptitude Test items and traffic accident data, which enabled the measurement of behavioral characteristics of elderly drivers. In developing the Influence Model, we applied the zero-inflated Poisson (ZIP) regression model and selected an accident prediction model based on the Bayesian Influence in regards to the ZIP regression model and the zero-inflated negative binomial (ZINB) regression model. According to the results of the AAE analysis, the ZIP regression model was more appropriate and it was found that three variables? prediction of velocity, diversion, and cognitive ability? had a relation of influence with traffic accidents caused by elderly drivers.

This study attempted to survey nursing students' motives for choosing nursing as their major, and to examine how such motives affect their satisfaction with their major, campus-life satisfaction, and self-directed learning ability. This study was conducted as a descriptive survey. Data were collected using a self-report questionnaire during the period from the 1st to 15th of April, 2015, and the questionnaires from 195 nursing students were used in the analysis using Fisher's exact test, t-test, one way ANOVA, Mann Whitney test, and ANCOVA. Only 41.5% of the nursing students chose nursing as their major because of their aptitude and interest. The motive for the selection of the major was found to have a significant effect on their satisfaction with the major (p<.001), campus-life satisfaction (p=.008), and self-directed learning ability (p=.001). Middle and high school students should be provided with various types of information on nursing, so that they can have the opportunity to choose nursing based on their aptitude and interest before entering university. Once they start university, nursing students' adjustment to campus-life and learning ability should be enhanced through various extracurricular activity programs in order to stimulate their interest in the major.

Second, among the participants, in terms of their personality and aptitude for their major field, they perceived it as joy and satisfaction, such as 'It fits well with the major,' 'I made a good choice,' and 'It became a turning point in life.' However, they also recognized the incompatibility of the major, such as disharmony of aptitude, burden of the role of counselor, and rejection of major. Third, although participants showed usefulness in their major learning, their perception of the career path in their major was acting as anxiety and conflict, but their concerns and conflicts resulted in financial difficulties, poor job conditions, and emotional exhaustion caused by long-term study. The burden of job, fear of counseling job, limit of undergraduate graduation, uncertainty of career, etc. acted as an obstacle in choosing a major career. Fourth, as a result of analyzing the interview data of the participants, a core category called' understanding and growth and the will of the counselor to realize the dream' was derived. In conclusion, the participant's perception of their major is the change and growth of themselves, the formation of a healthy relationship with others, and satisfaction with the suitability of their major and their aptitudes.

The purpose of this paper was to confirm the source of Shipsong called Yookchen or Yooksheen used in Myeongleehak and the meaning of Shipsong in major classics. It is to investigate the concept of Shipsong used in modern Myeongri, and to study in-depth the concept of Shipsong in a more advanced form, not just in family relationships. In reality, the concept of Yookchen was defined and the term Yookchen was first used in Yeonhaejapyeong. Most of the contents of the major classics, such as Yeonhaejapyeong, Sammyeontonghwe, and Japyeonjinjeong, were limited to setting only family concepts. Then, in 1963, Sajoojeongsul was published, which explained both family relations and the action of Shipsong. In particular, it is noteworthy that the scientific reputation written by Ki-seung Kim did not only explain the concept of Shipsong but also opened a new chapter to confirm human psychology and aptitude. In this study, I tried to find out the concept and tendency of Shipsong described in Kim Ki-seung's Science Myeongri in the major classics and how the concept changed. I hope this study will be of some help to the study of Myeongleehak in the future in terms of understanding and utilization of Shipsong.

Purpose: Due to the change of demography, the ratio of senior drivers has increased and the transition to a super-aged society is expected to make more seniors drive in the future. Method: In this research, we analyzed medical characteristics of the driver's age-specific decline in body function and saw that both the function of the physical as well as mental capacities deteriorates as people age. Among them, various functions are precipitously weakened after reaching 70, implying that those over the age of 70 are classified as seniors in a medical sense. In this context, we also could identify that based on such age criteria, various safety policies for senior drivers should be developed and set up in Korea. Result: We could find a steep fall in the physical function of body after reaching 70 from the chronological change of cognitive function and judgment ability. In particular, it is revealed that the driving license institution and aptitude test for drivers over 70 should be thoroughly examined, as physical functions necessary for driving such as eyesight and hearing ability is not strong enough in many drivers over 70. Conclusion: Focusing on the physical capacity to drive, we tried to find the hazardous age bracket of senior drivers which might influence driving behaviors. Going forward, we expect this work would help to understand the policies for senior drivers and drivers' physical differences.

교육은 인간이 지닌 잠재적인 능력을 바람직한 방향으로 발전할 수 있도록 도와주는 과정이다. 따라서 우수한 잠재능력을 가지고 있는 아동을 조기에 발굴하여 그들이 가지고 있는 능력과 자질에 맞는 체계적인 교육을 제공함으로써 그들의 내재된 능력을 발현하도록 하는 것은 개인의 성장과 발달을 도모함을 물론 나아가 국토가 좁고 자원이 부족한 우리나라에서는 국가의 발전에도 직결되는 매우 중요한 교육적 과제이며, 이러한 교육은 우수한 잠재적 능력을 가진 영재에게도 요구된다 할 것이다. 하지만 아직도 영재교육에 대한 인식과 지원이 미미한 실정에 있는 우리나라의 경우 초등정보과학영재교육을 위한 법적 제도적 장치가 확립되어 있지 못하고 초등정보과학영재교육이 실제적으로 자리잡을 수 있는 여러 가지 여건이 매우 부족한 실정이다. 초등정보과학영재교육의 활성화를 위해서는 교육과정 개발, 적합한 영재의 선발 등 많은 노력이 필요하겠지만, 더불어 초등정보과학영재의 교육의 실제를 담당하고 있는 영재교사에게 필요한 자질과 소양이 무엇인지에 대한 분명한 논의가 필요하고, 이러한 소양과 자질을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안에 대한 연구도 활발히 전개되어야 할 것이다. 따라서, 본 연구는 이제 그 싹을 피워가기 시작한 초등정보과학영재교육의 활성화를 위해 초등정의과학 영재교사가 갖추어야 할 자질과 역할을 제시해보고자 한다.
