This study investigates the effects of appearance management behaviors on job search efficacy among female college students. Based on previous studies on appearance management behaviors and job search efficacy, the questionnaire items were developed. For the study, we conducted a questionnaire survey among 312 students from women's university in Seoul. The statistical analyses were performed using SPSS 23. The results were as follows. First, three types of appearance management factors have been identified: 'fashion & hair,' 'skin care & plastic surgery,' and 'body shape'; the reliability and validity of these factors were proved. Second, the appearance management behavior of female college students found to have a partially significant effect on job search efficacy: fashion & hair factor had a positive effect on job search strength; fashion & hair factor and body shape factor had a positive effect on job search skills. While skin care & plastic surgery factor had a negative effect on job search strength and job search skill. Third, between academic years, there were differences in job search efficacy but not in appearance management behavior. By majors, there were differences among skin care & plastic surgery factor, body shape factor, and job search strength factor. These results suggest that to improve the job search efficacy, proper appearance management through fashion and hair, and body shape management is necessary. In addition, it suggests that it is important to improve the effectiveness of employment by establishing the appearance management strategy that matches the characteristics of each major.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of multiple cooling systems and different drinking water temperatures (DWT) on the performance of sows and their hair cortisol levels during heat stress. In this study, the effect of four different cooling systems: air conditioner (AC), cooling pad (CP), snout cooling (SC), and mist spray (MS), and two DWT, namely low water temperature (LWT) and high water temperature (HWT) on 48 multiparous sows (Landrace × Yorkshire; 242.84 ± 2.89 kg) was tested. The experiment is based on the use of eight replicas during a 21-days test. Different behaviors were recorded under different cooling treatments in sows. As a result, behaviors such as drinking, standing, and position change were found to be lower in sows under the AC and CP treatments than in those under the SC and MS treatments. Lying behavior increased under the AC and CP systems as compared with that under the SC and MS, systems. The average daily feed intake (ADFI) in sows and weight at weaning in piglets was higher under the AC, CP, and LWT treatments than under the SC, MS and HWT treatments. Sows subjected to SC and MS treatment showed higher hair cortisol levels, rectal temperature, and respiratory rate during lactation than those under AC and CP treatments. Hair cortisol levels, rectal temperature, and respiratory rate were also higher under the HWT than under the LWT treatment. As per the results of this study, the LWT has no significant effect on any of the behavioral factors. Taken together, the use of AC and CP cooling treatment is highly recommended to improve the behavior and to reduce the stress levels in lactating sows.

본 연구에서는 소아정신과에서 자폐로 진단받은 아동을 대상으로 항산화비타민을 공급하기 전후를 비교하여 신체 계측과 모발 내 유해 무기질 함량, 혈장 내 항산화 체계를 관찰하였고 혈장 지질 및 간 기능에 미치는 영향, 자폐성향 측정 및 사회성숙도를 비교하였다. 항산화비타민 섭취 전과 후의 영양소 섭취량을 조사한 결과 섭취량에는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 자폐아동에게 3개월간 항산화 비타민을 공급한 후 유해중금속 함량을 측정한 결과는 As, Pb 및 Al의 경우에는 항산화 비타민 공급 후 유의적인 차이를 나타내지 않았으나 감소하는 경향이었다. 그러나 Cd와 Hg은 항산화 비타민 공급 후 유의적으로 감소함을 관찰할 수 있었다. 학습장애에 영향을 미치는 미네랄인 Na, Cr도 항산화 공급 후 감소되어지는 것을 관찰하였으며 여러 항산화 효소들의 구성요소인 Fe, Zn, Mn 및 Se을 관찰한 결과 항산화비타민 공급 후 함량이 증가되었으나 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 혈중 serotonin을 측정한 결과는 항산화 비타민 섭취 전에 비해 섭취 후 serotonin 함량이 다소 증가하였으나 유의적인 차이는 없었으며 free radical 함량은 항산화비타민 섭취 전에 비해 섭취 후 free radical 함량이 23% 유의적으로 감소하였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 항산화 비타민이 모발 내 미네랄함량, 중금속 함량, free radical 함량 및 자폐성향 및 사회성숙도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 보아 자폐아동에게 항산화비타민의 보충이 자폐아동의 행동 및 발달장애를 개선시킨 것이라고 사료되어진다.
