This research aims to analyze and compare the objective and subjective evaluation criteria for home appliances. In addition, this research examined the correlation between those evaluation criteria. Furthermore, consumers are divided by the level of the differences between those criteria; consumer groups whose subjective evaluation level for the quality of home appliances is greater than objective evaluation level, consumer groups whose subjective evaluation level is almost the same, and consumer groups whose subjective evaluation level for the quality of home appliances is lower than objective evaluation level, and this study investigated the differences those three groups by the socio-demographic characteristics and consumers' behavior in the stage of purchase. Results of this research could be summarized as follows. First of all, there were statistically significant between the level of the objective and subjective evaluation in the quality of home appliances. Second, when consumers purchased the expensive home appliance, imported-brand home appliance, home appliances in department store, the level of subjective evaluation level for the quality of home appliances is higher than objective evaluation level. Third, the level of satisfaction for the price, quality, AS, overall satisfaction, and the level of willingness to repurchase were higher in consumer groups whose subjective evaluation level was higher than objective evaluation level.

The purposes of this study are to develop spatial factors for children's libraries and fulfill the evaluation of importance of expert and user groups for it. So, this study developed spatial evaluation factors by analyzing materials of domestic/international groups and associations and precedent studies, drawing spatial factors and organizing them. Next, for the spatial factors developed to 12 evaluation areas and 127 detailed indexes, an importance was evaluated for 4 expert groups; children's librarians, people majoring in early childhood education, elementary school's librarians, people in charge of architecture, etc. and 3 groups; infants, elementary school's lower grades, elementary school's high grades, etc. The evaluation results are as follows. First, the expert groups approved an importance of indexes by evaluating all of the 12 evaluation areas and 120 indexes of 127 detailed indexes as more than 3.0. Second, the user groups also approved an importance of indexes by evaluating all of 12 evaluation areas and 125 detailed indexes of 127 detailed indexes as more than 3.0. Third, as the result of evaluating an importance between expert groups and user groups, there was a difference between two groups in 2 areas among the 12 evaluation areas.

In this paper, we compute the images of homotopy groups of various classical Lie groups under the homomorphisms induced by the natural projections from those groups to irreducible symmetric spaces of classical type. We identify that those computations are certain lower bounds of Gottlieb groups of irreducible symmetric spaces. We use the lower bounds to compute some Gottlieb groups.

Background: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Mulligan's bent leg raise (BLR), two leg rotation (TLR) and straight leg raise with traction (traction SLR) technique on the change of shortened hamstring length. Methods: Sixty subjects participated in this study. The subjects were randomly assigned to either the BLR group (n=20) or TLR group (n=20) or traction SLR group (n=20). 90-90 SLR test was performed for evaluation of hamstring shortening at initial time of study. After intervention, immediate effect(immediately after intervention) and effect of maintenance (after 60 minutes from intervention) were assessed. Results: All three groups showed significant differences in the immediate evaluation and the post evaluation after 60 minutes on the change of shortened hamstring length compared to the initial evaluation. When three groups were compared, in the immediate effect, BLR and traction SLR groups were higher than TLR group (p<.05). And the effect after 60 minutes, BLR group was higher than the other two groups (p<.05). Conclusion: In the results of this study, three groups showed immediately and lasting effectiveness in flexibility of shortened hamstring. In addition, BLR and traction SLR groups were more flexible than TLR group in the immediate evaluation and BLR group had better maintenance of flexibility than the other two groups in the post evaluation after 60 minutes.

In this paper, we extend the Gottlieb groups of a space to the Gottlieb groups of a map and show some properties of those groups. Especially, We show the 2nd Gottlieb group of a map is contained in the center of the homotopy group of the map and show $G_n(F) = \pi_n(f)$ for an H-map f between H-spaces. We also show the Gottlieb subgroups $G_n(A), G_n(X) and G_n(f)$ make a sequence if the map $f : A \to X$ has a right homotopy inverse.

This research examines performance evaluatees' opinions regarding the current institutional performance evaluation systems of Government S&T Research Institutes (GRIs). Under the current evaluation systems, twenty GRIs are grouped into three Research Groups and each Group has its own evaluation systems. One problem of the current institutional evaluation systems is that the systems cannot reflect individual GRIs' characteristics. The following methods are used. First, based on four perspectives of Kaplan & Norton(1992)'s Balanced Scorecard(BSC) model, six perspectives appropriate to GRUs' characteristics are derived. Second, experts classify current performance evaluation measures into the six perspectives. This enables different evaluation systems of three GRI Research Groups to be compared under the same evaluation measures. Third, GRIs' evaluatees are asked to allocate appropriate weights on the performance measures. Evaluatees' weights of a GRI are compared with average weights of the related Group. Finally in every BSC's perspective, GRIs that have extraordinarily over-scored or under-scored weights are analyzed in terms of GRIs' missions, customers, capability of human resources, etc. In the Basic Research Group, the Korea Basic Science Institute is deviated in the financial perspective and the strategic direction perspectives. In the Public Research Group, Korea Institute of Construction Technology is significantly different from other GRIs in three perspectives. Five out of eight GRIs in the Industrial Research Group, GRIs are significantly different each other in several perspectives. It could be concluded that the current institutional evaluation systems are least appropriate in measuring performance of the GRIs of the Industrial Research Group.

The purpose of this study is to identify the effect not of therapeutic behavior but of the balance evaluation process itself on the balance ability of the elderly. For this, 36 elderly people over 65 age belonging to two elderly welfare centers in Jeonju city were divided into 3 groups of 12 each. All participants were divided into three groups, one was the daily evaluation, another was weekly, and the other group was twice at the beginning and the end of the study. And this study conducted for 4 weeks totally. The balance scale that we used one was Berg Balance Scale and for comparison within groups and between groups, Paired t-test and one-way ANOVA methods were used. The post-hoc test was used 'Scheffe test', and the significance level was α = .05. The results showed that the balance ability was significantly improved after 4 weeks in all three groups. Among all groups, the highest improvement was observed in the daily evaluation group and the lowest improvement was observed in the general evaluation group. In the comparison between the groups, it was confirmed between the daily evaluation group and the weekly evaluation group, between the daily evaluation group and the general evaluation group. These results show that the evaluation process using the balance function scale, rather than the therapeutic behavior, can affect the balance ability of the elderly. I would like to be able to utilize this basic research data that just evaluation of balance function using balance scale in the social facilities and institutions for the elderly can positively influence the improvement of the balance function and strengthen the postural controling ability necessary for the independent daily life practice.

This study examined the shop selection standards and preferred shops depending on the clothing attitudes identified by the psychological characteristics of consumers. To this end, this study selected the Korean Chinese college women in Yanbian. The study was conducted against 300 college students from May to June, 2002. Questionnaire was used for studying the subject of the thesis. Each question was rate4 in 5 point scale, where 1 means 'not at all' and 5 means 'definitely'. The data of this study was statistically analyzed using the SAS PC program. The t-test and $X^{2}$ were conducted to identify the evaluation criteria for clothing store and the preferred shops depending on clothing attitude groups and the factor analysis was carried out to analyze the clothing behavior factors. The results of study are summarized as described below. The clothing attitude of college women was classified into four factors: fashionable, brand-oriented, aesthetic and modest. The subjects were divided into two groups with higher average score and that with lower average score by factor, respectively. As a result of study on the evaluation standards of shop selection and preferred shops depending on the clothing attitude, for the evaluation standards of shop selection, three factors, fashionable, brand-oriented and modest factors, showed the significant difference between two groups. There was a significant difference between two groups in fashionable and brand-oriented factor and the preferred shops.

The Purpose of the current study is to investigate the differences in cosmetics attribute evaluation, purchase motivation, and brand re-purchase intention with respect to shopping orientations of Korean female university students. Questionnaires were distributed to 250 female students at Kyungpook National University and 220 completed questionnaires were analyzed. The results were as follows. First, shopping orientations and cosmetics attribute evaluation each generated four factor solutions, whereas cosmetics purchase motivations produced three factors. Second, three consumer groups - Efficiency Shopper Group, Indifference Shopper Group Ambivalence Shopper Group - with different shopping orientations were identified. Third, the study found significant differences in consumers' attribute evaluation such as function and price among the groups. The study also revealed a significant difference in contingent purchase motivations and brand re-purchase intention among the groups. From these results, we could identify that cosmetics re-purchase intention was significantly different among three different groups with different shopping orientations. Furthermore, consumer classification according to shopping orientations in cosmetics product purchase can be used by cosmetics marketers and managers to establish product plan and marketing strategy development. Additionally, the current study has originality and value that the relationship between shopping orientation and re-purchase intention has not been studied very much in the cosmetics product domain.
