The purpose of this study was to examine what factors determined the image of dental hygienists. The subjects in this study were 396 patients and caregivers who visited 14 dental institutes in Seoul and Gyeonggi province. After a survey was conducted, the following findings were given: 1. As for what factors had a decisive impact on the image of dental hygienists, friendliness(4.53) ranked first. 2. The image of dental hygienists was decided by five different kinds of factors, which included institutional, subjective, work-related, formal and media factors. Those factors made a 57.827% prediction of the image of dental hygienists. 3. The relationship of their general characteristics to the decisive factors of dental hygienist image was as follows: 1) By age(pE0.01), marital status(pE0.01), education(pE0.01), occupation(pE0.001), were under the significantly different influence of the formal factor(pE0.01). 2) As to the type of dental institutes they visited, the subjective factor exercised a significantly different influence on the groups(pE0.01). 3) Regarding the frequency of visiting dental institutes, the institutional and work-related factors had a significantly different impact on the groups(pE0.05). 4) Concerning the experience of the caregivers, the work-related factor exercised a significantly different influence on the groups(pE0.05). 5) As to connections between their general characteristics and the decisive factors of dental hygienist image in different areas, the subjective factor mostly had the strongest impact, and the formal factor was least influential.

본 연구의 목적은 전통시장에 대한 효과적이고 효율적인 지원 사업 전개를 위해 필요한 이론적 틀을 마련하는 것이다. 본 연구는 전통시장에 쇼핑몰 개념을 도입하여 쇼핑몰 선택요인이 전통시장 이미지와 매력에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 다시 이러한 매력이 재방문의도에 미치는 영향을 파악해 보았다. 이를 위해 쇼핑몰 선택요인으로 접근성, 주차시설, 본원적 혜택, 인적상호작용, 물리적 환경, 주변 환경 등의 요인을 파악하였고 이 같은 요소들이 이미지 매력과 평가 매력 그리고 더 나아가 재방문의도에 미치는 영향을 파악하였다. 쇼핑몰 선택요인 중, 주차시설, 물리적 환경, 주변 환경이 이미지 매력에 유의한 영향을 미쳤고 본원적 혜택, 인적상호작용, 물리적 환경은 평가 매력에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 시설 개선을 통해 구축하고자 한 현대적인 이미지, 세련된 이미지, 고급스러운 이미지 등의 전통시장의 이미지 매력은 전통시장 재방문의도에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타난 반면 평가 매력은 재방문의도에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 이 같은 결과는 전통시장 현대화의 이미지에 치중되어 있는 기존의 시장 활성화 지원 방안은 그리 효율적이지 못한다고 볼 수 있으며 전통시장 활성화를 위해서는 우선 평가 매력에 영향을 주는 쇼핑몰 선택요인에 초점을 맞추어 개선 노력을 기울일 필요가 있음을 보여준다. 즉 품질이 좋은 다양한 상품을 저렴하게 제공해야 하며, 전통시장의 방문 목적에 맞게 다양한 서비스를 제공해야 한다. 소비자들이 매력을 느낄 수 있도록 상인들은 손님들을 친절하고 신속하게 응대하고, 고객의 개별적인 관심 해결을 통해서 신뢰감을 주어야 한다.

This study examines the impact of consumer knowledge and familiarity with private label brands (PLBs) on perceptions and preferences toward PLBs and patronage intentions; in addition, it examines the incremental effects of a department store image over consumer knowledge and familiarity with perceptions, preferences, and patronage intentions. This study focused on midscale department store PLBs of apparel products and middle age consumers between the ages of 30 and 50 who are the main consumer group of private label brands of apparel products. A structured questionnaire was developed and data were collected from a convenience sample of 257 female consumers between the ages of 35 and 54, living in the Southeastern United States. A factor analysis identified the dimensions of department store image constructs; in addition, a hierarchical regression and multiple regression analyses examined the hypotheses. Consumer knowledge and familiarity with PLBs at department stores is recognized as a major determinant to shape consumer perceptions of and preferences for the PLBs as well as patronage intentions. The present study reveals the significant incremental effect of a store image on consumer preferences, perceptions, and patronage intentions beyond that explained by consumer knowledge and familiarity about PLBs. The study reveals that, among four store image constructs, the store atmosphere and store service factors had significant positive effects on consumer perceptions of PLBs. Store service and atmospheric aspects also affect consumer patronage intentions toward PLBs. The price factor shows a significant and positive influence on the preference consumers have for PLBs, but not on perceptions and patronage intentions. This study has practical implications for department store executives and managers on how to allocate resources in order to increase positive consumer perceptions toward PLBs, preferences over other brands, and patronage intentions of PLBs at a store as well as how to create effective store environments to promote PLBs.

Steel cables serve as the key structural components in long-span bridges, and the force state of the steel cable is deemed to be one of the most important determinant factors representing the safety condition of bridge structures. The disadvantages of traditional cable force measurement methods have been envisaged and development of an effective alternative is still desired. In the last decade, the vision-based sensing technology has been rapidly developed and broadly applied in the field of structural health monitoring (SHM). With the aid of vision-based multi-point structural displacement measurement method, monitoring of the tensile force of the steel cable can be realized. In this paper, a novel cable force monitoring system integrated with a multi-point pattern matching algorithm is developed. The feasibility and accuracy of the developed vision-based force monitoring system has been validated by conducting the uniaxial tensile tests of steel bars, steel wire ropes, and parallel strand cables on a universal testing machine (UTM) as well as a series of moving loading experiments on a scale arch bridge model. The comparative study of the experimental outcomes indicates that the results obtained by the vision-based system are consistent with those measured by the traditional method for cable force measurement.

This study is aimed to assess the general population's attitude toward the continuity of medical care and its related factors. Self administered questionnaire was performed on the 1,120 office workers in the C city, Gang-won province. The questionnaire included the attitude of the continuity of medical institute, the intention of medical service use on a given case, and the variables of the related factors. 58.8% of the total respondents agreed to sustaining treatment without changing medical institutes; on the other hand, 41.2% showed negative attitude. In case that a patient would gain a recommendation of a surgery, hospitalization, or a specific examination, the total respondents' 84.9%, 61.8%, and 50.8% of each recommended situation said that they would visit another doctor and gain a diagnosis. As a result of multiple logistic analysis of determinant factor on continuity, reliability of doctors was statistically significant factor. In order to reduce wastefully used medical resources and offer well-qualified medical service, a system of second opinion among peer group or beforehand agreement could be possibly adopted. In addition, improving the image and reliability of a doctor could be an important factor to make better the behavior of medical service shopping; therefore, an effort to improve the relationship between a doctor and a patient, and restore the reliability of doctors should be paralleled.
