An excessive Q-angle has been implicated in the development of knee injuries by altering the lower-extremity locomotion kinematics. The purpose of this study was measured the Q-angle and the CTA when the foot moves pronation and supination of the foot in the standing status. The participants of this examination were 60 adult(30 men and 30 women) who had no orthopaedic and neurological impairment, aged between 20 and 40years. The foot tilt(FT 1)is made of acrylic plate and the slope of the suface is altered as $0^{\circ}$, pronation ($10^{\circ},20^{\circ},30^{\circ}$)and supination($10^{\circ},20^{\circ},30^{\circ}$). The results were as follows : 1. The result about the left/right Q-angle and the left/right CAT There was no statistical significant difference between the left and the right side of the Q-angle with different position of the foot(P > 0.05). While significant difference in the left CTA at the $0^{\circ}$, pronation($10^{\circ},20^{\circ},30^{\circ}$) and supination($10^{\circ},20^{\circ}$) has been observed(P < 0.05). 2. The result about the Q-angle and the CTA between male and female There was significant difference in the Q-angle between male and female with different position of the foot(P < 0.05). while significant different in the right CTA at the $0^{\circ}$ pronation ($20^{\circ}$)(P < 0.05), no significant difference in the left CTA have been observed(P > 0.05). 3. The result about correlation between the left/right Q-angle and the left/right CAT There was statistical significant positive correlation between the left/right Q-angle and the left/right CAT with the different position of the foot(P < 0.01).

This paper presents an SAR-data calibration technique using a well-calibrated scatterometer. At first a fully-polarimetric antenna pattern(magnitude and phase) of the antenna main-beam using a conducting sphere was measured. Then, this data were used to calibrate polarimetrically an auto-mounted network analyzer-based scatterometer system. This scatterometer system can be used to measure the accurate Mueller matrices of earth surfaces such as grass fields, rice fields and bare soil surfaces; i.e., the phase-difference parameters can be obtained as well as the radar scattering coefficients. If a polarimetrically calibrated scatterometer is operated at the same time with the SAR system, the scatterometer data can be used to correct the SAR data, especially the phase-difference parameters. It was found that the correction effect is remarkable for the degree of correlation ${\alpha}$, which is one of the phase-difference parameter, while the correction effect is negligible for the magnitude parameters(backscattering coefficients).

Purpose: The purpose of this descriptive study was to examine the knowledge, attitudes and prevention behavior to AIDS of nurses. Method: The subject of this study were 217 nurses in Busan. Data was analyzed by using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and Scheffe's test. Results: Total knowledge of AIDS(mean score was 6.71 out of 12) was average. Total attitudes of AIDS(mean score was 13.16 out of 25)was average. Prevention behaviors were above average(mean score was 57.63 out of 75). According to the results of analyzing the difference between general characteristics of the subject and AIDS related knowledge, attitudes and prevention behaviors, a significant difference was present with religion(p<.05) in attitudes score; with age(p<.001), marital status(p<.001), education level(p<.05), position(p<.05) and clinical experience(p<.05) in prevention behaviors. According to the results of analyzing the difference between AIDS related characteristics of the subject and AIDS related knowledge, attitudes and perceived behaviors, a significant difference was present with experience in taking care of HIV/AIDS patients(t=2.19, p<.05) in attitudes score; and experience in HIV positive after care(t=-2.64, p<.01) and general nursing training about AIDS(t=2.23, p<.01). There was a positive correlation among knowledge score and attitudes score(r=.170, p<.05). Conclusion: These findings suggested that AIDS education and training programs should be developed and run for nurses. Expecially, health education related with AIDS is needed in young and less experienced nurses. In following such a program, there will be greater compliance with prevention behaviors. Furthermore, it is necessary to provide work-related guidelines regarding AIDS for nurses.

Healthy second generation is considered the wealth of the nation. Recant statistical data revealers that student population: primary through university, is 25% of population. Despite the fact that health education is one of the three most valued educational aims of Ministry of Education, students, teachers and parents seem reluctant to its value. In this contort, influences of school health nurses on this aspect of education can not bi disregarded This study is designed to investigate the status and working condition of school health nurses and analyse the correlation between role perception and role expectation of school health nursers. teachers and students. Prior to main study. pilot interviews with 10 of each group according to check-list are performed. Data for main study is collected through check-list from September 10 to October 10. 1973 from 100 of each group. All responses of questionnaire item are categories into 4 aspects; health education, environmental sanitation qualification of school health nurses and social aspect of school. Results of study are as follows; 1. Differences on role perception of school health nurses and role expectation of teachers is revealed-non-significant by .05〈P〈.10 level. while between students is shown significant difference by P〈.005 level, in health education role of school hearth nurses. 2. The environmental sanitation category of school health nurses role: non-significant difference is revealed between teachers and school health nurses by. 05〈P〈.10 level, and significant difference-is revealed by P〈.05 level. 3. Difference in value orientation of school health nurses' personal quality; students and teachers differ with school health nurses by P〈.025 1eve1. 4. Social aspect of school in the community aspect: non-significant differences are revealed by.05〈P〈.10 level between air three groups. Conclusions: 1. Role perception of school health nurses is most closely correlated with their role expectation. Some individual differences are noted between items, and aspects. 2. Role perception of school health nurses is more closely correlated than that of with role expectation of teachers than that of students. Some individual differences are noted between items, and aspects. 3. Consensus of role of school health nurses between each group is relatively Low: student is the lowest group. teacher the second, and school health nurses the highest.

We propose an improved de-interlacing method that converts the interlaced images into the progressive images by one field. In the first, Inter-pixel values are calculated by applying Newton's forward difference, backward difference interpolation from upper and lower 5 pixel values. Using inter-pixel values obtained from upper and lower 5 pixel values, it makes more accurate a direction estimate by applying the correlation between upper and lower pixel. If an edge direction is determined from the correlation, a missing pixel value is calculated into the average of upper and lower pixel obtained from predicted direction of edge. From simulation results, it is shown that the proposed method improves subjective image quality at edge region and objective image quality at 0.2~0.3dB as quantitative calculation result of PSNR, compared to previous various de-interlacing methods.

In this study, the distribution characteristics according to the type of BOD and the effect of nitrogenous oxygen demand (NOD) and algal oxygen demand on BOD in three streams (Bokhacheon, Byeongseongcheon, and Gulpocheon) were evaluated. Although the BOD and NOD concentrations demonstrated a difference in the three streams, the carbonaceous BOD(CBOD)/BOD ratio was 0.75 (p=0.053, one-way ANOVA), and there was no significant difference in the three streams (r2≥0.92, p<0.0001). The NOD concentration of the Bokhacheon with high NH3-N was 1.7±1.3 mg/L, which was the highest among the three streams and showed a significant correlation with BOD. Seasonal variations in NOD in the three streams did not show a significant correlation with changes in NH3-N concentration (r2<0.28, p≥0.1789), and there was no significant difference in NOD even though NH3-N concentration in Gulpocheon was about twice that of Byeongseongcheon (p=0.870, one way ANOVA). The particulate CBOD(PCBOD)/CBOD ratio of the three streams was 0.55~0.64, and about 60% of the biodegradable organic matter was present in the particulate form. When the Chl.a concentration in the stream was more than 7 ㎍/L, the PCBOD tended to increase with the Chl.a concentration (r2=0.61, p=0.003). In the three streams, particulate NOD accounted for 81% of NOD; however, despite the large variation in NH3-N concentration (0.075~3.182 mg/L), there was no significant difference in soluble NOD(SNOD) concentration that ranged from 0.1 to 0.3 mg/L. In this study, the low contribution rate of SNOD to NOD is considered as a result of the removal of nitrifying bacteria along with the particles during the filtration process.

In this study, we analyzed the differences of SW education teaching efficacy(SE-TE) according to variables such as gender, region, training experience, and attitude toward SW education. As a result, there was no difference according to the region, but there was statistically significant difference in the other variables. The correlation analysis and the regression analysis showed that the training experience and the attitude toward the SW education had the most correlation and explanatory power to the SE-TE. These results suggest that the training should be designed in order to enhance the teachers' SE-TE, to increase the opportunities of training, to provide continuous training, to operate the training hours efficiently, and to improve the teachers' personal SW education teaching efficacy.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of the exhibition displays and events of the Agro-healing Experience Hall in the Agricultural Technology Exhibition 2018 on satisfaction and revisit intention of visitors. A survey was conducted on visitors of the Agro-healing Experience Hall and the responses of 274 visitors excluding 26 cases with inappropriate responses were analyzed. For psychological measurement, the Perceived Restorativeness Scale (PRS), Profile of Mood States (POMS), level of plant gardening experience, satisfaction and loyalty were measured. There was a significant difference among age groups in all four factors of the PRS (repose, fascination, coherence, and legibility). In the case of education level, there was a significant difference in the three factors (repose, fascination, and legibility). In addition, average monthly income showed a significant difference among groups in the two factors (fascination and coherence). As a result of analyzing the mood states of visitors for the exhibition events of the Agro-healing Experience Hall, there was a significant difference among age groups only in the case of vigor (p < .05). As a result of analyzing the correlation between the level of plant gardening activities (3 factors) and PRS (4 factors) in the exhibition events of the Agro-healing Experience Hall, plant preference tendency and plant-related event showed a high positive correlation of 0.5 or more with repose of the PRS factors. A multiple regression analysis was conducted to investigate the effects of the level of plant gardening activities, PRS and POMS on the satisfaction and loyalty of visitors. As a result, it was found that in terms of relative explanatory power over independent variables affecting satisfaction and revisit intention, fascination had the greatest effect, followed by vigor, fatigue, and occupation (company employee). The results of this study suggest that exhibition events of the Agro-healing Experience Hall affect repose, fascination or vigor of visitors, and thus can be used positively to increase satisfaction and revisit intention of visitors.

Indentifying anomaly correlations between data sets is the basis for rationalizig geopotential interpretation and theory. A procedure is presented that constitutes an effective process for identifying correlative features between the two or more geopotential data sets. Anomaly features that show direct, inverse, or no correlations between the data may be separated by applying filters in the frequency domains of the data sets. The correlation filter passes or rejects wavenumbers between co-registered data sets based on the correlation coefficient between common wavenumbers as given by the cosine of their phase difference. This study includes an example of Magsat magnetic anomaly profile that illustrates the usefulness of the procedure for extracting correlative features between the data sets.
