  • A common fallacy found at opera works is to lean either toward 'opera as drama' or toward 'opera as music'. One of the historical examples of opera creation to overcome this fallacy is Puccini's $\grave{e}$me>. The composer Puccini and the librettists, Illica and Giacossa, found balance between these two extreme poles, which was made possible by keeping the color of the original novel "scenes de la vie de boh$\grave{e}$me" and simultaneously by reconstructing the most operatic characters and story. Their strategies, which can be summerized as 'simplification', 'romanticization and re-creation of characters', and 'realistic description of original atmosphere'. There strategy of adaptation and the 'episodic' feature as the outcome can be a good example for creators of new opera works.

  • Hans Kelsen, one of prominent advocators of legal positivism, insisted that every theory of natural law try to show that it is possible to deduce from the nature, that is to say from the nature of man certain rules which provide an altogether adequate prescription for human behavior. But it is impossible to deduce from the nature certain ethical rules. The purpose of this study is to show his insistence false. Firstly, He is based on false assumption that 'nature' in theory of nature law is 'nature' in natural science. Secondary, He is based on false assumption that the entire systems of natural law are deduced from only one first natural law. Thirdly, He makes logical fallacies, that is, straw man, false dichotomy and so on. Fourthly, in spite of his critique of every theory of natural theory, this study tries to certify that theories of natural law of I. Kant and J. Maritain and so on are very excellent.

New Approaches for Calibrating Material Factors of Reinforced Concrete Members in Korean Highway Bridge Design Code (Limit State Design) and Reliability Analysis (도로교설계기준(한계상태설계법)의 콘크리트부재 설계를 위한 재료계수 결정법 및 신뢰도 분석)

  • This paper brings up fallacy of material factors specified for the design of concrete members in the current Korean limit state design code for highway bridges, and proposes new material factors based on a robust optimization scheme to overcome the fallacy. It is shown that the current load factors in the code and the proposed material factors lead to a much higher reliability index than the target index. The load factors are adjusted to yield the target reliability index using the inverse reliability analysis. A reliability-based approach following the basic concept of Eurocode is formulated to determine material factors as well as load factors. The load-material factors obtained by the proposed reliability-based approach yield a lower reliability level than the target index. Drawbacks of the basic concept of Eurocode are discussed. It is pointed out that differences in the uncertainties between materials and members may cause the lower reliability index of concrete member than the target.

A Qualitative Study on the Use of Fallacies in the 2022 Korean Presidential Debates (20대 대선 후보 TV토론에서의 오류 사용에 관한 질적 연구)

  • The present study aims to explore how fallacies, arguments that seem valid but are not, appear in 2022 South Korean presidential debates. It qualitatively analyzes the candidates' remarks in the first and last presidential debates (240 minutes) using 20 formal and informal fallacy concepts as a theoretical framework. Results show that the three candidates used 23 informal fallacies from 15 categories, including the straw man, red herring, begging the question, complex question, hasty generalization, appeal to the masses, and you too. The candidates relied on fallacies to defend their image and electoral agenda from adversary attacks and to contaminate their opponent's image and agenda. The arguers, who struggled with tough questions, frequently made fallacies as pseudo-arguments to avoid the situation without lying and violating election laws. This study indicates that the fallacy system can be a framework for analyzing crucial political content. Moreover, it warns against the abuse of fallacies in TV debates.

  • INDUSTRIAL DESIGN(1.D) has been recognized as an independent subject for 30 years 10 KOREA and 70 years in the worldwide. Though the beginning of the 1.D is extended to the commercialization of the art, history of 1.D is still 150 years, and very short compared to the those of other subject. The scientific identity of 1.D has to be established to prepare the role of 1.0 for the information society and industrial society of the 21 century. 1.D contains the essence such as integrated and $$\mu$titude character and two lineaments( Analytic science and Synthetic science-objective and subjective) 1.D has undergone confusion and fallacy in society and educational system. To develop achieve the goal of design education and to the competItIve design country in the world market, the scientific status of I.O has to be established as a integrated and independent subject. This study generally reviewed 1.0 to find the essence and scientific status of subject to determine the direction foward the next century in the view of intellectual structure and system.

  • There are many problems in evaluating study results by p value in null hypothesis testing for dental research. It is a logical fallacy to conclude that the null hypothesis is true when the it is not rejected. There are much serious misunderstanding about p value, and researchers should be cautious about interpreting p value in writing papers. As alternatives to complement or replace the null hypothesis significance testing, effect size, confidence interval, and Bayesian statistics are introduced.

  • Jang Gyung Ak thought the Yang Gi was the basis of life. This is why he said doctors should emphasize on preserving Yang Gi. Before his emphasis on Yang Gi he had to study and criticize the medical concept of HaGan, DanGye and DongWon. By criticizing and overcoming their medical concept's fallacy and limitations, he made his own medicine. JangGyungAk found the importance of YangGi in the theory of changes. In the "the Book of Changes" it is said the rising movement of YangGi is expressed by recipricals and propels heaven and earth, yin and yang to change. The phenomenon of life is also a reciprocal and is lead by YangGi, and so medicine should value Yang Gi. Because the phenomenon of life is lead by this Yang Gi, it is right to base changes of diseases and organize pattern identification. The pattern identification JangGyungAk presented as two Gang six Byun sets its base on YangGi.

  • A fundamental problem in analyzing complex multilevel-structured periodontal data is the violation of independency among the observations, which is an assumption in traditional statistical models (e.g., analysis of variance and ordinary least squares regression). In many cases, aggregation (i.e., mean or sum scores) has been employed to overcome this problem. However, the aggregation approach still exhibits certain limitations, such as a loss of power and detailed information, no cross-level relationship analysis, and the potential for creating an ecological fallacy. In order to handle multilevel-structured data appropriately, mixed effects models have been introduced and employed in dental research using periodontal data. The use of mixed effects models might account for the potential bias due to the violation of the independency assumption as well as provide accurate estimates.

  • This paper aims at the examination on the fallacy of the name of 'Dadaepo-gaeksa'. The results are as follow: The so called 'Dadaepo-gaeksa' was one of the official buildings of Dadaejin, the naval forces in the late period of J osun dynasty. The building was moved to Molundae near the original site in 1970. And two years later, it was designated as a cultural asset. However it's real name is 'Dadaejin-dongheon', because Dadae-jin gaeksa was demolished about the time of the foundation of Dadaepo-elementary school. Otherwise, Dadae-jin donheon was used as a school building from 1904 to 1970. Futhermore, the architectural style of the existing building is different from the general gaeksa's in the period of J osun dynasty. Therefore, the name of Dadaepo-gaeksa needs to change into Dadaejin-gaeksa and to restore as its original style.

  • In their recent paper published in this journal Shin Kim and Jinyong Lee have attacked some previous studies on the counterexample to modus ponens. Among their arguments I would like to discuss the following two; first, those attempts to explain van McGee's example by reference to conditional probability do not accord with van McGee's position, second, van McGee'e example is to be best seen as an argument containing the fallacy of equivocation. I show that the first argument is not correct, the second one is not so persuasive as it seemed first.
