The purpose of this study was to examine the current interior conditions of kindergarten and to suggest the interior planning guidelines. Data were collected through questionniare survey including observations and interviews. The sample consisted of 262 kindergarten teachers in Pusav. The data were analyzed by using SPSS-PC. The major findings were as follows: (1) Interior finishes should be chosen based on children's behavioral and developmental characteristics. (2) Considering children's safety and teachers' easy access and observation, classrooms and teachers' room should be located at the first floor, and the public spaces such as playroom and assembly room should be located at the top floor because of noise and circulation problem. (3) The size fo the classroom should be increased based on children's age. (4) The teachers were generally satisfied with location, color, and finishes of each room. There was a significant difference between satisfaction of overall characteristics of rooms and theclasses that teachers are in charge of. (5) Children's developmental characteristics can be an important factor when designing a space for childrev. Even though there were some limitations on this study, the findings can be utilized as a basis for generating interior environmental recommendations for planning a better quality of kindergartev.

We have constructed a scanning confocal microscope using a 780 nm semiconductor laser, an actuator of a compact disk player and a quad-detector. This device detects heights and characteristics of a surface. The laser focus was located at the surface of a sample by using the error signal obtained by a quad-dector, and the current supplied to the actuator for lens was displayed as a height. The materials of a surface were classified according to reflected total intensities and was displayed by different color in a monitor. The device has very samll dimensions of 30 mm$\times$20 mm$\times$20 mm and scan field is 1.6 mm$\times$1.6mm. We obtained two images, one using only reflected light and the other using an error signal from a quad-detector and compared these two images.

Subway is a major transportation in the city that is allied to the daily life of people. As a public space, subway station must satisfy the citizens with convenience, safety and esthetic factors. The bench which is one of the major street furniture on the subway platform has a lot of physical contact. Therefore the design of benches must be considered in the aspects of not only aesthetic design but also ergonomic design. The goal of this study is to find out the current conditions and problems of benches and at the same time suggest how to arrange, design, and manage them at the proper manners at subway platform. The result of the study is as follows. First, the problems of design are that the benches at a same platform have various design, the saturation of color is too high, and the design is unfashionable. The second, at the management part there is no such a total management system and specialist for the street furniture section and lack of rational management regulations. The third, results of a new survey suggest that citizens think negatively about present bench's conditions such as design and administration.

The effects of electrodialysis (ED) alone or ED plus ultrafiltration (UF) on deacidification of mandarin orange juice were studied by using a commercial ED stack with ion exchange membranes. ED processing, reduced the total acidity of the juices by 30% (0.6~0.7% as total acidity) after 50 min and by about 60~70% (0.23~0.4% as total acidity) after 100 min, as compared to the control juice. However, the acidity reduction after 50 min of ED was determined to be suitable, when considering total acidity (0.6~0.7%, w/w) and current efficiency. There was no color change in the juices following ED, and the pH and Brix were only slightly decreased. Furthermore, ascorbic acid and citric acid concentrations showed only minor decreases, and amino-N, free sugar, and flavonoid contents remained almost unchanged. Therefore, we concluded that the nutritional integrity of the juice was maintained. ED combined with UF may be effective, not only in preventing membrane fouling, but also in preserving the nutrients, such as ascorbic acid, in citrus juice.

The purpose of this research was to discuss pending taste of the Journal of the Korean Institute of Landscape Architecture(KILA). Two subjects were discussed; one was the role of KILA as a supporter of landscape research, and the other was the role of KILA as a safeguard for its members. The results of this research were as follows. To support landscape research, several proposals were suggested. It is necessary for the development of landscape architecture for us to share some pages of our journal for essays which deal with current landscape issues, in order to introduce advanced overseas landscape trends or landscape techniques. For the field of landscape construction and landscape management, it is necessary to prepare a column of technical notes which introduce new techniques of landscape construction and management. For the field of landscape design, a larger seperate volume must be prepared with color printing. It is an efficient way to cooperate with other institutions that have the same member as KILA. To safeguard KILA members, it is important to maintain our status as a registered journal of Korea Research Foundation and to publish an international journal. For prospective young researchers, publication of an english journal is under consultation with the Japanese Institution of Landscape Architecture and the Chinese Institution of Landscape Architecture. The publication of an international land-scape journal to be recorded in the ISI journal in the near future will promote the research abilities of KILA members.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Chinese artichoke powder on the physicochemical properties and the sensory characteristics of yanggaeng. According to the increasing contents of Chinese artichoke powder, the $^{\circ}Brix$ value and pH levels of yanggaeng were significantly decreased whereas the moisture contents of yanggaeng was significantly increased. The result of color measurement shown that L value of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder was lower than that of control group, but a value and b value of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder were higher. Texture measurement score in terms of cohesiveness, chewiness, and brittleness for yanggaeng were significantly decreased according to the levels of added Chinese artichoke powder content. The contents of total polyphenol, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and NSA of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder were higher than those of control group. As Chinese artichoke powder increased, antioxidative activity also became bigger. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, odor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 2% and 4% of Chinese artichoke powder did not show any significantly differences when compared to the control group. Based on these findings, current study suggest that addition of 4% Chinese artichoke powder was the best substitution ratio for yanggaeng.

The purpose of the present study was to identify the effects of communicator, type of clothing and subject's age on informational influence in clothing conformity. The sample consisted of 205 subjects assigned to two groups (female college students in their early twenties and housewives in their late thirties living in kyongju). In this study the research design consisted of a 3(communicator)×2(subject's age)×2(type of clothing) factorial design. The stimuli consisted of 10 color photographs (6 one-piece dresses and 4 jeans in current fashion) In the first step, subjects were asked to arrange stimuli in the order of greatest fashionability. In the second step, subjects were exposed to experimental manipulation which consisted of slides of various clothing styles and an essay concerning a forecast on fashion trends. The communicator in the essay was described as a designer, a college student, or a housewife. In the third step, in addition to other questions subjects were asked to indicated their degree of agreement with the essay. The data were analyzed by ANOVA, X2 and t-test. The results were: 1. Informational influence on clothing conformity varied by communicator, type of clothing, and subject's age. Subjects were most conforming when the communicator was described as a designer and when the clothing style was a one-piece dress. 2. Informational influence results revealed that housewives were more conforming than the female college students in the jean style.

In human history, scarf has acted not only as a protection for body but also as a symbolization of class. Today, scarf has become a whole field in fashion and an important accessory to express individuality in fashion. Hence, like other fashion item, it is very important to develop exclusive design for scarf by analyzing the current fashion trend. In this research, we have designed a scarf textile, accordance with the contemporary design trend, applying the floral pattern, designed by William Morris who was an artist considered as the founder of the 1800s arts and crafts movement. We selected four trend themes, "Salon de Archives", "Eco Tech", "Profound Nature", and "Neo Aristo" for the design of 2007/2008 Fall/Winter. The flower motifs in Pimpernel Wallpaper, Honeysuckle textile design, Acanthus Wallpaper, Garden tulip wallpaper, Evenlode printed cotton, Trellis Wallpaper, and Chrysanthemum Wallpaper, by William Morris who expressed an image of environment friendly and nature reversion, applied to develop new creative scarf through design after modifying and rearranging these flower patterns. After the pattern was drawn by hand, adjusting of color and repeating of the design was done with DTP (Digital Textile Printing). Through this research, the researchers hopes to be of assistance to the development of national scarf brand design, and to the recapturing of textile industry that once played a important role in Koreans economic development.
