The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships among physical growth, body criticism from others, sociocultural attitude toward physical appearance, body image, self-esteem, and clothing attitudes. The data were collected from 439 junior high school girls living in Seoul, Korea, via a self-administered questionnaires, and were analyzed by factor analysis and LISREL models. The results of this study were as follows: 1) Among three sub-variables of physical growth, the height had a positive effect on the affective aspect of body image. 2) The body criticism from others had the effect neither on the sociocultural attitude toward physical appearance nor on the affective aspect of body image. 3) The sociocultural attitude toward physical appearance had a negative effect on the affective aspect of body image and a positive effect on the cognitive/behavioral aspect of body image. 4) The affective aspect of body image had a positive effect on the cognitive/behavioral aspect of body image, self-esteem, and clothing attitude. However, the cognitive/behavioral aspect of body image had the effect on clothing attitude. 5) The self-esteem had no significant effect on clothing attitudes.

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are used for many real-time applications. User authentication is an important security service for WSNs to ensure only legitimate users can access the sensor data within the network. In 2012, Yoo and others proposed a security-performance-balanced user authentication scheme for WSNs, which is an enhancement of existing schemes. In this paper, we show that Yoo and others' scheme has security flaws, and it is not efficient for real WSNs. In addition, this paper proposes a new strong authentication scheme with user privacy for WSNs. The proposed scheme not only achieves end-party mutual authentication (that is, between the user and the sensor node) but also establishes a dynamic session key. The proposed scheme preserves the security features of Yoo and others' scheme and other existing schemes and provides more practical security services. Additionally, the efficiency of the proposed scheme is more appropriate for real-world WSNs applications.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyzing the relationship between perceived health status, health locus of control, self-esteem, self-efficacy and HPB in patients with multiple myeloma to identify factors influencing health promoting behavior (HPB). Methods: One hundred patients were recruited into the study. The data were collected by personal interviews using questionnaires. Descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation coefficients and stepwise multiple regression analysis were used with SPSS program to were analyze the data. Results: There were significant relationships between self-esteem (r=.787, p<.001), self-efficacy (r=.681, p<.001), internal health locus of control (r=.557, p<.001), powerful others health locus of control (r=.517, p<.001), chance health locus of control (r=-.251, p=.012), perceived health status (r=.532, p<.001) and HPB. Significant factors in explaining HPB were self-esteem, powerful others health locus of control, self-efficacy and perceived health status and together they accounted for 71% of variance. Conclusion: The study findings indicate that self-esteem, powerful others health locus of control, self-efficacy, and perceived health status were important factors in explaining HPB in patients with multiple myeloma. As self-esteem was an important variable in HPB, health promotion program designed for this population should focus on self-esteem and these other factors to enhance effective health promotion behavior.

The purposes of this study is to identify the relationship between coping strategies and the nursing organizational effectiveness in hospital nurses and to provide the basic data concerning the development of job stress management program for hospital nurses. The subjects showed that the twenties and single nurses who had worked under one year used more frequently 'the avoid and the symptom coping strategies' better than 'the control'. Also, they showed significantly lower satisfaction and higher 'the intent to leave' than others. The main factors that affected the satisfaction and 'the intent to leave' were age and the control coping strategies.In conclusion, this study showed that the staff nurses who were twenties, single, and new employed used more frequently 'the avoid and symptom management coping strategies' than others. Also they showed lower satisfaction and higher 'the intent to leave' than others. So Age and the control coping strategies should be considered in the development of staff nurses' stress management program. Especially, it was needed to focused on the nurses who were twenties, single, and new employed.

The employment rate has become the standard for university values. This raises the need to investigate the antecedents of university students' career exploration. Focused on the hospitality majored students, this study aims to investigate both individual and relational factors that influence their career exploration behaviors. Differentiation of self has been chosen as the individual and the relational antecedents based on Bowen's theory. It was investigated whether each dimension(I-position, emotional reactivity, fusion with others, and emotional cutoff) explains the amount of self-exploration and the amount of environmental exploration. The university students majoring in hospitality were surveyed and a total of 269 cases out of 300 cases were analyzed employing descriptive statistics and multi-variate analysis of variance, and structural equation modeling(SEM). The study found that I-position positively influenced self-exploration and environmental exploration. Emotional reactivity made an influence on environmental exploration, while it failed to explain self-exploration. Fusion with others and emotional cutoff also significantly influenced environmental exploration, however, it didn't make any significant influence on self-exploration. This study implies that the college of hospitality majors needs to understand that differentiation of self forms through family relationship and needs to provide the students the programs of how to understand themselves and what to do for their career exploration.

To evaluate the effect of feeding time and high fat diet on weight gain and blood components in rats, the classification of groups were night(P.M. 8:00-next day A.M. 8:00), day(A.M. 8:00 P.M. 8:00) and ad-libitum(24 hours)group as feeding time. Each group has also 2 groups by fat level(high-fat diet, standard diet). Therefore, the 36 experimental animals were divided into 6 groups. The results of this study can be summarized as follows. Food intake of SA(standard diet / ad-libitum) and SN(standard diet/night) groups was significantly higher than the others, and HA(high fat diet /ad-libitum) and HD(high fat diet /day) groups was significantly lower than the others. Body weight gains of HN group and SA group were significantly higher than the others in 5 weeks. The blood contents of total cholesterol, triglyceride, protein and albumin were no significant difference among experimental groups, but the blood contents of glucose were higher in HN and SD groups than SN and HA groups. Accordingly, eating before asleep and high fat diet bring about one's overweight and abnormal blood concentration.

Recently, self-efficacy is one of the critical constructs that have been found to influence human decisions about behavior selection and the performance associated with the selected behavior. The construct has been widely adopted and tested In the fields of social psychology and/or other behavioral sciences. In information systems field, however, it has been hardly studied, although computer self-efficacy could have been an important factor explaining and predicting human computer usage behaviors. From this perspective, main purposes of the study is to understand causal relation among the factors influencing computer self- efficacy, computer usage behavior and computer self-efficacy. The research reported in this study have several objectives; 1) to develop a measure of computer self-efficacy, 2) to Identify the factors influencing self-efficacy, and 3) to reveal the relationship between self-efficacy and computer usage behavior and then 4) to explain the causal model of computer self-efficacy. By reviewing the literature, past experience, others' use, encouragement by others, and anxiety are selected as the factors influencing computer self-efficacy. Four hypotheses concerning the relationship between each of the variables and computer self-efficacy are tested by LISREL. One more hypothesis about the relationship between computer self-efficacy and computer usage is also tested. The results show that computer self-efficacy is significantly influence by computer anxiety, encouragement by others, and computer experience, and that it is closely correlated with computer usage behavior.

In this study, dldctronic identification system of individual dairy cow was developed for autocatization of stoxkvreeding management. To automize the breeding management, it is necessary to obtain and analyze the individual information distinguished from others perferentially. Electronic identification system can distinguish individual livestock from others with electromagnetic wave signal recognition system. Electoronic identification system consists of transmitter transmitting the oscillated signal and receiver set. The transmitted signal from transmitter clung to individual livestock is received from the receiving antenna and the signal in different according to the established value of the register. By distinct signal recieved from the reciever, wi can distinguish the identity of a livestock from others clearly. This system can manage $2^{12}$ individuals with a reciever theoretically. However in order to reduce the errors by analogous signal, this system uses only triple number and can manage 1365 individuals with a reciever practically. This system can be connevtted to Max 232 and microcomputer for the breeding management efficiently.

Caring is being rediscovered as a central and unifying concept of the nursing. Traditionally, nursing profession has emphasized spirit and activities of caring. But there is little efforts to study the caring phenomena scientifically and systematically in nursing, and then the concept of caring is still remained unclear and ambiguous. Changes of social, and health care environment are threatening the philosophy and practice of caring, so it is urgent to identify caring more scientifically and to rediscover the nature of nursing discipline. Knowledge of the caring is essential component for the development of nursing as a science and a profession. The first thing to study a concept is thought to be the analysis of the concept. So in this study, concept analysis of caring was performed to clarify the concept of caring as a basis for the study of caring afterward. The approach used for the concept analysis of caring was the approach presented by Walker and Avant. The defining(or critical) attributes of caring identified in this study were (1) a series of activities for helping others, (2) concern and devotion. (3) interpersonal relationship, and (4) scientific and systematic process. The identified antecedents of caring were (1) awareness of other's needs for help, and (2) moral and cognitive motivation for helping others. The identified consequences of caring were (1) healing, (2) satisfaction, and (3) growth. And the consequences of caring were revealed to both of the care giver and the care receiver. The empirical referents of caring could be the behaviors of interpersonal relationship through scientific and systematic process with concern and devotion for others.

The risk of temporomandibular joint disorder (TMD) can be increased during dental treatment due to excessive mouth opening and change of occlusion. The aim of this study is to find the relationship between dental treatment and TMD in the patients who developed TMD after dental treatment. The subjects of this study were 21 patients, who developed TMD after dental treatment and were treated with active TMD therapy in Seoul National University Bundang Hospital from June 2003 to February 2007. The subjects were examined with preceding dental treatment, symptom, diagnosis, treatment method of TMD and prognosis of TMD. The obtained results were as follows. 1. Preceding dental treatments were : Implant treatment, 14 cases ; Tooth extraction, 3 cases and others. 2. TMD symptoms were : pain on TMJ, 12cases : Sound on TMJ, 3cases ; Mouth opening limitation, Headache and others. 3. Diagnoses of TMD were : Synovitis and/or capsulitis, 10 cases ; 8 cases of Internal derangement and others. 4. Most TMD were treated by stabilization splint. 5. Prognoses of TMD were : Improvement, 6cases ; sustained 11 cases. In conclusion, the risk of TMD is increased during implant treatment. Prognoses of TMD after dental treatment were bad. It might be that these patients were non-cooperative and have distrust of dental treatment. Because the overloading on TMJ is possible in dental treatment of patients with underlying TMD, prior explanation and knowledge TMJ treatment are very important in these cases.
