This study was carried out to investigate the status of the utilization of internet and dietary information by elementary school dietitians (total = 201) The results were summarized as follows: All subjects used the internet regularly and the major purpose they mentioned for using it was ″data search″ (72.3％). Those having a frequency of using the internet 6 to 7 times per week were 46.7％ of the subjects and the majority indicated the duration of their use of the internet was ″〈 2 hours″ (68.5％). They mainly used the internet at ″school″ (81.8％) , and their favorite search engines were ″Daum″ (41.1％) and ″Yahoo″ (34.7％). They stated that the organization that offered reliable internet information were those ″related to society and organizations″ (36.9％) and ″educational institutions″ (33.8％). Ninety-five percent of the subjects searched for dietary information mainly ″for public affairs″ (80.0％) Their degree of satisfaction when searching for information was high (78.7％). Those dissatisfied with internet sites when searching for dietary information give the following reasons: ″poor information″ (39.1％) and ″slow updates″ (25.4％). They acquired information on nutrition and health management mainly through ″the internet″ (63.6％) The most frequently requested information about public affairs was on ″Materials for nutritional education″ (38.6％) and ″up-to-date nutritional information″ (16.0％) . The desirable update periods for websites was ″1 -3 months″ (51.8％) and ″ < 1 month″ (30.6％), and the favorite site colors were ″blue″ (37.8％) and ″green″ (37.8％). The results of this study showed that, although the internet usage was high, the dietitians were dissatisfied with the information obtained. Therefore, the information donors should find out what kind of dietary information is needed by elementary school dietitians. (Korean J Community Nutrition 8(4) : 595-602, 2003)

Community search aims at finding a meaningful community that contains the query node and also maximizes (minimizes) a goodness metric. This problem has recently drawn intense research interest. However, most metric-based algorithms tend to include irrelevant subgraphs in the identified community. Apart from the user-defined metric algorithm, how can we search the natural community that the query node belongs to? In this paper, we propose a novel community search algorithm based on the concept of the k-hop and local distance dynamics model, which can naturally capture a community that contains the query node. The basic idea is to envision the nodes that k-hop away from the query node as an adaptive local dynamical system, where each node only interacts with its local topological structure. Relying on a proposed local distance dynamics model, the distances among nodes change over time, where the nodes sharing the same community with the query node tend to gradually move together, while other nodes stay far away from each other. Such interplay eventually leads to a steady distribution of distances, and a meaningful community is naturally found. Extensive experiments show that our community search algorithm has good performance relative to several state-of-the-art algorithms.

Purpose: This study was conducted to analyze the exposure of female high school students to Internet pornography and its related factors. Methods: A total of 392 female high school students were selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using self-reported questionnaires from June 27 to July 8, 2005. Results: 1. As for exposure to Internet pornography, 61.0% of the respondents had been exposed to Internet pornography and 29.7% had their first exposure to Internet pornography when they were in the 3rd grade of middle school. In addition, 87.9% of the respondents spent less than 30 minutes each time to view Internet pornography. In 41.8% of the respondents, the reason for seeing Internet pornography was curiosity about sexuality. 2. Both the level of sexual knowledge (t=3.174, p=.002) and attitude (t=2.567, p=.011) were significantly different between the exposure group and the non-exposure group. 3. Grade, daily mean time to use computer, and sexual knowledge had statistically significant effects on exposure to Internet pornography. Conclusion: It is necessary to make repeated study to find other variables that affect students' exposure to Internet pornography and to develop education programs to enhance students' coping ability against Internet pornography. Also, parents' concern over youth is necessary to prevent them from being exposed to Internet pornography.

This paper tries to extend the conventional conceptual framework of the Internet of Things (IoT) so as to reify an advanced pervasive IoT-community collaboration concept, which is called the process-aware Internet of Things. The extended conceptual framework is embodied as a referential architecture that can be a standardized reference model supporting the conceptual integration of the Internet of Things and the process awareness. The extended referential architecture covers the full range of the architectural details from abstracting the process-aware behavioral semantics to reifying the IoT-process enactments. These extended framework and architecture ought to be the theoretical basis for implementing a process-aware IoT-community computing system supporting process-aware collaborations of Things in pervasive computing environments. In particular, we do point up that the proposed framework of the process-aware Internet of Things is revised from the Internet of Things framework announced in ITU-T SG13³ Y.2060 [26] by integrating the novel concept of process awareness. We strongly believe that the extended conceptual framework and its referential architecture are able to deliver the novel and meaningful insight as a standardized platform for describing and achieving the goals of IoT-communities and societies.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine teenagers' Internet addiction and to find factors influencing it. Methods: Data were collected from 596 middle and high school students between June 1 and June 20, 2009 with a self-rating questionnaire. The data were processed with SPSS/WIN 12.0. Results: (1) 20.3% of the students were spending over three hours a day in Internet use. The percentages of mild and serious Internet addiction were 22.3 and 2.1, respectively. (2) The stronger Internet addiction was, the higher stress was and the lower social support was. There was a negative correlation between stress and social support (r=-.296, p<.01). There was also a positive correlation between Internet addiction and stress (r=.264, p<.01) while a negative correlation between Internet addiction and social support (r=-.127, p<.01). (3) Among the subjects' characteristics, sex, school and family type, frequency of processed food intake, average daily Internet use hour and sleeping hour, subjective health perception, and satisfaction level with parents and family made difference in the Internet addiction level. Conclusion: The result of this study will provide useful background data for the selection of target population, stress management and social support promotion programs to prevent teenagers' Internet addiction.

The purposes of the study are to examine the relationship amongst adolescents' internet usage, fandom activities, sense of community and their mental health in the digital era and to probe into the effect of internet usage, fandom activities, sense of community on adolescents' mental health. The results are as follows: First, there were statistically significant correlations among those four factors. Secondly, it shows that the effect of internet usage, fandom activities and sense of community on the adolescents' mental health have a difference by gender. In the case of female adolescents, there is no effect of internet usage on their mental health. But, the study reveals that adolescents' internet usage and fandom activities which now are accepted as a part of their culture, could be combined with the sense of community and could have an effect on the adolescents' mental health. Furthermore, the study casts a light on the possibility to build a strong point on adolescents' activities, education, counseling and policy making for the purpose to enhance adolescents' mental health in the future.

Purpose: Previous studies focused on the negative effects of Internet use such as obesity, depression, and addiction. However, few studies investigated whether the Internet use for an appropriate time has positive effects on adolescents' health. Thus, the purpose of the study was to examine the dose-response relationship between Internet use for non-academic purposes (NAP) and happiness/stress in adolescents. Methods: This study used data from the 2013 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey. A total of 72,435 adolescents were included. Rao-Scott ${\chi}^2$ and multiple logistic regression were conducted. To test the dose-response relationship, this study examined how happiness/stress changed with increase in the time of Internet use for NAP. Results: After controlling for general characteristics, the odds ratios for being unhappy and stressful were lowest in adolescents using the Internet for NAP for more than 0 hour and less than an hour a day. Interestingly, students who did not use the Internet for NAP had a significantly higher risk of being unhappy/stressful than those using for more than 0 hour and less than an hour a day. Conclusion: Internet use for NAP for more than 0 hour and less than an hour a day has positive effects on happiness/stress in adolescents.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relation between adolescents' internet addiction and mental health. Methods: The Internet addiction level was measured with K-Scale developed for Korean adolescents by Korea Agency Digital Opportunity & Promotion (2006) and the mental health level was measured with SCL-90-R developed by Derogatis (1977) and adapted for Korean adolescents by Kim, Kim. & Won (1984). Collected data was analyzed by the mean${\pm}$SD, t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe and Pearson correlation coefficient (SPSS 12.0) Results: 1. The Internet addiction level appeared to be 'Addiction' in 19%, 'Latency addiction' in 27% and 'Normal' in 54%. 2. The Internet addiction level was different according to sex, use, frequency and using time per day. The mental health level was different according to grade, sex, the father's education, the mother's education, frequency and using time per day. 3. The correlation between Internet addiction and mental health was found significant. Conclusion: The Internet addiction level was confirmed to have an influence on mental health. We offered basis data for preventing and treating Internet addiction in adolescents.
