Survey consisted of questions about body discomfort, satisfaction and purchasing criteria of ready-to-wear, the inconvenience of clothing. The results of this study are as follows: Physical discomforts were generally associated with the ability to regulate body temperature. The biggest complaint of ready-to-wear was the price, and the next were the size and activity.

Data analysis were done with spss 12.0 for the frequency analysis, cross tab analysis, t-test, and ANOVA. The findings are as follows. 1. The survey subjects were diverse in their age from 20s to 60s and 18.5% of them have need of other's assistance at the time of getting dressed or undressed of clothing. The knee part was felt to be the most uncomfortable, causing the inconveniences in wearing pants or panties. 2. The investigation into the inconvenience levels at the time of dressing or undressing of clothing was indicated that the wearing of pants was the hardest movement to arthritis patients, as the items relating to the movements for putting feet into or pulling them out of pants and those for raising pants over the hip were also accompanied by the feeling of pains. In addition, the aged arthritis patients felt the clothes-wearing movements more difficult. 3. The survey on the kind and inconvenience levels for the clothes currently being worn showed the highest wearing ratio for the pants, which were pointed out to be the most inconvenient. 4. As for the clothing improvement, the needs were located as a whole in the sufficiency in measures of pants crotch and circumference items, the flexibility in materials, the short length of pants, or the front clearance.

Product replacement (PPL) is used widely in marketing and plays crucial roles but the effects of the PPL attributes on a restaurant brand are not well known. Therefore, this study examined the effects of PPL attributes on brand awareness and brand credibility. In addition, the relationship among brand awareness, brand credibility, and brand loyalty was investigated. The study found that the characteristics of PPL, such as information and entertainment, affected brand awareness. On the other hand, inconvenience did not have any impact on brand awareness. In addition, information, entertainment, and inconvenience affected brand credibility. Furthermore, brand awareness and credibility influenced brand loyalty significantly. These results suggest that PPL can be a very effective way to advertise. Hence, PPL should be done with a sense of information and entertainment than simply with more frequent exposure to consumers, which that might cause inconvenience.

이 연구의 목적은 노인의 장애여부에 따른 정보화기기의 사용과 불편함을 알아보는 것이다. 노인실태 조사 자료에서 총 10,097명의 자료를 활용하여 장애 여부에 따른 정보화기기 보유와 사용, 사용역량, 불v편함의 차이를 분석하였다. 일반적 특성과 장애관련 특성을 알아보기 위해 기술통계를 시행하였다. 장애 여부에 따른 정보통신기기 사용능력, 정보화기기 이용시 불편함의 차이를 알아보기 위해 카이제곱검정을 실시하였다. p값은 0.001로 정하였다. 연구 결과 국내 장애 노인은 비장애 노인에 비해 스마트폰, 태블릿 PC보유율과 사용률이 더 낮았고, 일상생활에서 메시지 받기, 메시지 보내기, 정보검색 및 조회, 사진 또는 동영상 촬영, 동영상 보기에서 활용능력이 저조하였다. 일상에서의 정보화기기 사용불편함을 조사하였을 때 장애 노인은 기차/고속버스/시외버스 온라인 예매, 식당 등에서 키오스크 주문, ATM사용 또는 은행점포 감소로 느끼는 불편함에 대해 비장애 노인에 비해 경험이 없거나 모른다고 응답하는 경우가 많았고 불편함 없이 이용하는 경우는 적었다. 결과를 종합하여 보면 국내 장애 노인의 정보화기기 보유, 사용능력은 비장애 노인에 비해 저조하며 일상에서는 정보화기기 사용에 더 큰 불편을 느끼고 있다. 급격히 진행되고 있는 장애인의 고령화와 우리 사회의 정보화의 상황에서 장애 노인들의 소외를 막고 알맞은 교육과 지원을 통해 정보화기기의 사용능력 증진과 불편함 개선이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study is to develop and examine an in-line skating uniform that is also suitable for everyday wear, through research on the dressing needs of skaters. The results of this research are as follows: when asked about the garment, ordinary clothes were more inconvenient than professional uniform. In the case of the upper garment, the skaters who dressed in ordinary clothes felt the most inconvenience in the part of sleeve, back side of bottom and width. The skaters who dressed in professional in-line uniforms felt the most inconvenience in the part of neck girth, of sleeve, back side of bottom. In the case of the lower garment, the skaters who dressed in ordinary clothes felt the most inconvenience in the knee, crotch and hip. The skaters who dressed in professional in-line uniforms felt the most inconvenience in the hip and crotch. Damage due to wear was shown up the hip, knee, side of thigh and shoulder. The answer rate was high that the ordinary clothes usually wore out and the uniform used to tear out in the form of clothes damage. An appropriate sample pattern was made up, based on the problems revealed in the results of the questionnaire analysis. Evaluation of samples was used linear Measurement (5 point preference scale) by organized with 15 male and female's subjects group and 12 observer group.

본 연구는 암환우들의 탈모용 가발 착용 시 불편 사항에 따른 개선 방안을 분석한 결과로, 60대 전후의 여성 암환우를 대상으로 조사 분석을 실시하였다. 탈모를 인지하게 된 시기는 항암제 또는 방사선 치료 1회 직후가 가장 높았고, 두번째로 2회 후부터가 23.9% 순으로 나타났으며, 암환우들의 가발 착용에 따른 불편 수준으로는 대체로 편리한 편이지만 두피트러블, 밀착성, 조화성, 등에 있어 불편을 겪는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 암환우들의 일반적 특성에 따른 가발 착용 시의 불편 요소 분석 결과 직업에 따라 편리성에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났고 다른 요인에서는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 대졸이나 고졸 혹은 대학원 졸업인 경우 현재 재학 중인 학생에 비해 높은 편리성을 보이며 졸업생과 재학생 간의 연령차에 의한 차이일 것으로 추측된다. 이러한 불편요소를 개선하기 위해 가발의 기술 개발과 연구가 끊임없이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

CISG articles 34 and 37 clearly allow the seller to cure any nonconformity in documents of sale or performance prior to the date for delivery if it does not cause the buyer unreasonable inconvenience or unreasonable expense. CISG article 48 allows a seller to cure the performance even after the date for delivery if it does not cause the buyer unreasonable delay, unreasonable inconvenience or unreasonable uncertainty of reimbursement by the seller of expenses advanced by the buyer. The wording any failure to perform is broad enough to include a delay. The seller's right to cure relates to all his obligations. The seller may remedy 'any failure to perform his obligations'. This language is broad enough to include a defect in documents. In some cases the fact that the seller is able and willing to remedy the non-conformity of the goods without inconvenience to the buyer, may mean that there would be no fundamental breach unless the seller failed to remedy the non-conformity within an appropriate time. It cannot generally be said what unreasonable inconvenience means. This can only be decided on a case-by-case basis. The seller must bear the costs involved in remedying a failure to perform. The curing of a failure to perform may have influence on the amount of the damage claimed. Insofar as the seller has the right to cure, the buyer is in that case obliged to accept the cure. If he refuses to do so, he can neither avoid the contract nor declare a reduction in price. This rule clearly shows the underlying concept of the CISG, to keep to the contract, if possible. Should the buyer requires delivery of substitute goods and the seller offers repair, it depends on the expense each case. The buyer must receive the request or notice by the seller. The relationship between the seller's right to cure and the buyer's right to avoid the contract is unclear. The buyer's right to avoid the contract should not nullify the seller's right to cure if the offer is reasonable. In addition, whether a breach is fundamental should be decided in the right of the seller's offer to cure.
