Due to the increasing and intensifying competition in the Internet shopping market, it has been recognized as very important to develop an effective policy and strategy for acquiring loyal customers. For this reason, web site designers need to know if a new Internet shopping mall(ISM) will be accepted. Researchers have been working on identifying factors for explaining and predicting user acceptance of an ISM. Some studies, however, revealed inconsistent findings on the antecedents of user acceptance of a website. Lack of consideration for individual differences in user ability is believed to be one of the key reasons for the mixed findings. The elaboration likelihood model (ELM) and several studies have suggested that individual differences in ability plays an moderating role on the relationship between the antecedents and user acceptance. Despite the critical role of user ability, little research has examined the role of user ability in the Internet shopping mall context. The purpose of this study is to develop a user acceptance model that consider the moderating role of user ability in the context of Internet shopping. This study was initiated to see the ability of the technology acceptance model(TAM) to explain the acceptance of a specific ISM. According to TAM. which is one of the most influential models for explaining user acceptance of IT, an intention to use IT is determined by usefulness and ease of use. Given that interaction between user and website takes place through web interface, the decisions to accept and continue using an ISM depend on these beliefs. However, TAM neglects to consider the fact that many users would not stick to an ISM until they trust it although they may think it useful and easy to use. The importance of trust for user acceptance of ISM has been raised by the relational views. The relational view emphasizes the trust-building process between the user and ISM, and user's trust on the website is a major determinant of user acceptance. The proposed model extends and integrates the TAM and relational views on user acceptance of ISM by incorporating usefulness, ease of use, and trust. User acceptance is defined as a user's intention to reuse a specific ISM. And user ability is introduced into the model as moderating variable. Here, the user ability is defined as a degree of experiences, knowledge and skills regarding Internet shopping sites. The research model proposes that the ease of use, usefulness and trust of ISM are key determinants of user acceptance. In addition, this paper hypothesizes that the effects of the antecedents(i.e., ease of use, usefulness, and trust) on user acceptance may differ among users. In particular, this paper proposes a moderating effect of a user's ability on the relationship between antecedents with user's intention to reuse. The research model with eleven hypotheses was derived and tested through a survey that involved 470 university students. For each research variable, this paper used measurement items recognized for reliability and widely used in previous research. We slightly modified some items proper to the research context. The reliability and validity of the research variables were tested using the Crobnach's alpha and internal consistency reliability (ICR) values, standard factor loadings of the confirmative factor analysis, and average variance extracted (AVE) values. A LISREL method was used to test the suitability of the research model and its relating six hypotheses. Key findings of the results are summarized in the following. First, TAM's two constructs, ease of use and usefulness directly affect user acceptance. In addition, ease of use indirectly influences user acceptance by affecting trust. This implies that users tend to trust a shopping site and visit repeatedly when they perceive a specific ISM easy to use. Accordingly, designing a shopping site that allows users to navigate with heuristic and minimal clicks for finding information and products within the site is important for improving the site's trust and acceptance. Usefulness, however, was not found to influence trust. Second, among the three belief constructs(ease of use, usefulness, and trust), trust was empirically supported as the most important determinants of user acceptance. This implies that users require trustworthiness from an Internet shopping site to be repeat visitors of an ISM. Providing a sense of safety and eliminating the anxiety of online shoppers in relation to privacy, security, delivery, and product returns are critically important conditions for acquiring repeat visitors. Hence, in addition to usefulness and ease of use as in TAM, trust should be a fundamental determinants of user acceptance in the context of internet shopping. Third, the user's ability on using an Internet shopping site played a moderating role. For users with low ability, ease of use was found to be a more important factors in deciding to reuse the shopping mall, whereas usefulness and trust had more effects on users with high ability. Applying the EML theory to these findings, we can suggest that experienced and knowledgeable ISM users tend to elaborate on such usefulness aspects as efficient and effective shopping performance and trust factors as ability, benevolence, integrity, and predictability of a shopping site before they become repeat visitors of the site. In contrast, novice users tend to rely on the low elaborating features, such as the perceived ease of use. The existence of moderating effects suggests the fact that different individuals evaluate an ISM from different perspectives. The expert users are more interested in the outcome of the visit(usefulness) and trustworthiness(trust) than those novice visitors. The latter evaluate the ISM in a more superficial manner focusing on the novelty of the site and on other instrumental beliefs(ease of use). This is consistent with the insights proposed by the Heuristic-Systematic model. According to the Heuristic-Systematic model. a users act on the principle of minimum effort. Thus, the user considers an ISM heuristically, focusing on those aspects that are easy to process and evaluate(ease of use). When the user has sufficient experience and skills, the user will change to systematic processing, where they will evaluate more complex aspects of the site(its usefulness and trustworthiness). This implies that an ISM has to provide a minimum level of ease of use to make it possible for a user to evaluate its usefulness and trustworthiness. Ease of use is a necessary but not sufficient condition for the acceptance and use of an ISM. Overall, the empirical results generally support the proposed model and identify the moderating effect of the effects of user ability. More detailed interpretations and implications of the findings are discussed. The limitations of this study are also discussed to provide directions for future research.

The objective of this research is to test the feasibility of developing a statewide truck traffic forecasting methodology for Wisconsin by using Origin-Destination surveys, traffic counts, classification counts, and other data that are routinely collected by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT). Development of a feasible model will permit estimation of future truck traffic for every major link in the network. This will provide the basis for improved estimation of future pavement deterioration. Pavement damage rises exponentially as axle weight increases, and trucks are responsible for most of the traffic-induced damage to pavement. Consequently, forecasts of truck traffic are critical to pavement management systems. The pavement Management Decision Supporting System (PMDSS) prepared by WisDOT in May 1990 combines pavement inventory and performance data with a knowledge base consisting of rules for evaluation, problem identification and rehabilitation recommendation. Without a r.easonable truck traffic forecasting methodology, PMDSS is not able to project pavement performance trends in order to make assessment and recommendations in the future years. However, none of WisDOT's existing forecasting methodologies has been designed specifically for predicting truck movements on a statewide highway network. For this research, the Origin-Destination survey data avaiiable from WisDOT, including two stateline areas, one county, and five cities, are analyzed and the zone-to'||'&'||'not;zone truck trip tables are developed. The resulting Origin-Destination Trip Length Frequency (00 TLF) distributions by trip type are applied to the Gravity Model (GM) for comparison with comparable TLFs from the GM. The gravity model is calibrated to obtain friction factor curves for the three trip types, Internal-Internal (I-I), Internal-External (I-E), and External-External (E-E). ~oth "macro-scale" calibration and "micro-scale" calibration are performed. The comparison of the statewide GM TLF with the 00 TLF for the macro-scale calibration does not provide suitable results because the available 00 survey data do not represent an unbiased sample of statewide truck trips. For the "micro-scale" calibration, "partial" GM trip tables that correspond to the 00 survey trip tables are extracted from the full statewide GM trip table. These "partial" GM trip tables are then merged and a partial GM TLF is created. The GM friction factor curves are adjusted until the partial GM TLF matches the 00 TLF. Three friction factor curves, one for each trip type, resulting from the micro-scale calibration produce a reasonable GM truck trip model. A key methodological issue for GM. calibration involves the use of multiple friction factor curves versus a single friction factor curve for each trip type in order to estimate truck trips with reasonable accuracy. A single friction factor curve for each of the three trip types was found to reproduce the 00 TLFs from the calibration data base. Given the very limited trip generation data available for this research, additional refinement of the gravity model using multiple mction factor curves for each trip type was not warranted. In the traditional urban transportation planning studies, the zonal trip productions and attractions and region-wide OD TLFs are available. However, for this research, the information available for the development .of the GM model is limited to Ground Counts (GC) and a limited set ofOD TLFs. The GM is calibrated using the limited OD data, but the OD data are not adequate to obtain good estimates of truck trip productions and attractions .. Consequently, zonal productions and attractions are estimated using zonal population as a first approximation. Then, Selected Link based (SELINK) analyses are used to adjust the productions and attractions and possibly recalibrate the GM. The SELINK adjustment process involves identifying the origins and destinations of all truck trips that are assigned to a specified "selected link" as the result of a standard traffic assignment. A link adjustment factor is computed as the ratio of the actual volume for the link (ground count) to the total assigned volume. This link adjustment factor is then applied to all of the origin and destination zones of the trips using that "selected link". Selected link based analyses are conducted by using both 16 selected links and 32 selected links. The result of SELINK analysis by u~ing 32 selected links provides the least %RMSE in the screenline volume analysis. In addition, the stability of the GM truck estimating model is preserved by using 32 selected links with three SELINK adjustments, that is, the GM remains calibrated despite substantial changes in the input productions and attractions. The coverage of zones provided by 32 selected links is satisfactory. Increasing the number of repetitions beyond four is not reasonable because the stability of GM model in reproducing the OD TLF reaches its limits. The total volume of truck traffic captured by 32 selected links is 107% of total trip productions. But more importantly, ~ELINK adjustment factors for all of the zones can be computed. Evaluation of the travel demand model resulting from the SELINK adjustments is conducted by using screenline volume analysis, functional class and route specific volume analysis, area specific volume analysis, production and attraction analysis, and Vehicle Miles of Travel (VMT) analysis. Screenline volume analysis by using four screenlines with 28 check points are used for evaluation of the adequacy of the overall model. The total trucks crossing the screenlines are compared to the ground count totals. L V/GC ratios of 0.958 by using 32 selected links and 1.001 by using 16 selected links are obtained. The %RM:SE for the four screenlines is inversely proportional to the average ground count totals by screenline .. The magnitude of %RM:SE for the four screenlines resulting from the fourth and last GM run by using 32 and 16 selected links is 22% and 31 % respectively. These results are similar to the overall %RMSE achieved for the 32 and 16 selected links themselves of 19% and 33% respectively. This implies that the SELINICanalysis results are reasonable for all sections of the state.Functional class and route specific volume analysis is possible by using the available 154 classification count check points. The truck traffic crossing the Interstate highways (ISH) with 37 check points, the US highways (USH) with 50 check points, and the State highways (STH) with 67 check points is compared to the actual ground count totals. The magnitude of the overall link volume to ground count ratio by route does not provide any specific pattern of over or underestimate. However, the %R11SE for the ISH shows the least value while that for the STH shows the largest value. This pattern is consistent with the screenline analysis and the overall relationship between %RMSE and ground count volume groups. Area specific volume analysis provides another broad statewide measure of the performance of the overall model. The truck traffic in the North area with 26 check points, the West area with 36 check points, the East area with 29 check points, and the South area with 64 check points are compared to the actual ground count totals. The four areas show similar results. No specific patterns in the L V/GC ratio by area are found. In addition, the %RMSE is computed for each of the four areas. The %RMSEs for the North, West, East, and South areas are 92%, 49%, 27%, and 35% respectively, whereas, the average ground counts are 481, 1383, 1532, and 3154 respectively. As for the screenline and volume range analyses, the %RMSE is inversely related to average link volume. 'The SELINK adjustments of productions and attractions resulted in a very substantial reduction in the total in-state zonal productions and attractions. The initial in-state zonal trip generation model can now be revised with a new trip production's trip rate (total adjusted productions/total population) and a new trip attraction's trip rate. Revised zonal production and attraction adjustment factors can then be developed that only reflect the impact of the SELINK adjustments that cause mcreases or , decreases from the revised zonal estimate of productions and attractions. Analysis of the revised production adjustment factors is conducted by plotting the factors on the state map. The east area of the state including the counties of Brown, Outagamie, Shawano, Wmnebago, Fond du Lac, Marathon shows comparatively large values of the revised adjustment factors. Overall, both small and large values of the revised adjustment factors are scattered around Wisconsin. This suggests that more independent variables beyond just 226; population are needed for the development of the heavy truck trip generation model. More independent variables including zonal employment data (office employees and manufacturing employees) by industry type, zonal private trucks 226; owned and zonal income data which are not available currently should be considered. A plot of frequency distribution of the in-state zones as a function of the revised production and attraction adjustment factors shows the overall " adjustment resulting from the SELINK analysis process. Overall, the revised SELINK adjustments show that the productions for many zones are reduced by, a factor of 0.5 to 0.8 while the productions for ~ relatively few zones are increased by factors from 1.1 to 4 with most of the factors in the 3.0 range. No obvious explanation for the frequency distribution could be found. The revised SELINK adjustments overall appear to be reasonable. The heavy truck VMT analysis is conducted by comparing the 1990 heavy truck VMT that is forecasted by the GM truck forecasting model, 2.975 billions, with the WisDOT computed data. This gives an estimate that is 18.3% less than the WisDOT computation of 3.642 billions of VMT. The WisDOT estimates are based on the sampling the link volumes for USH, 8TH, and CTH. This implies potential error in sampling the average link volume. The WisDOT estimate of heavy truck VMT cannot be tabulated by the three trip types, I-I, I-E ('||'&'||'pound;-I), and E-E. In contrast, the GM forecasting model shows that the proportion ofE-E VMT out of total VMT is 21.24%. In addition, tabulation of heavy truck VMT by route functional class shows that the proportion of truck traffic traversing the freeways and expressways is 76.5%. Only 14.1% of total freeway truck traffic is I-I trips, while 80% of total collector truck traffic is I-I trips. This implies that freeways are traversed mainly by I-E and E-E truck traffic while collectors are used mainly by I-I truck traffic. Other tabulations such as average heavy truck speed by trip type, average travel distance by trip type and the VMT distribution by trip type, route functional class and travel speed are useful information for highway planners to understand the characteristics of statewide heavy truck trip patternS. Heavy truck volumes for the target year 2010 are forecasted by using the GM truck forecasting model. Four scenarios are used. Fo~ better forecasting, ground count- based segment adjustment factors are developed and applied. ISH 90 '||'&'||' 94 and USH 41 are used as example routes. The forecasting results by using the ground count-based segment adjustment factors are satisfactory for long range planning purposes, but additional ground counts would be useful for USH 41. Sensitivity analysis provides estimates of the impacts of the alternative growth rates including information about changes in the trip types using key routes. The network'||'&'||'not;based GMcan easily model scenarios with different rates of growth in rural versus . . urban areas, small versus large cities, and in-state zones versus external stations. cities, and in-state zones versus external stations.

This project was a service-cum-research effort with a quasi-experimental study design to examine the health benefits of an integrated Family Planning (FP)/Maternal & Child health (MCH) Service approach that provides crucial factors missing in the present on-going programs. The specific objectives were: 1) To test the effectiveness of trained nurse/midwives (MW) assigned as change agents in the Health Sub-Center (HSC) to bring about the changes in the eight FP/MCH indicators, namely; (i)FP/MCH contacts between field workers and their clients (ii) the use of effective FP methods, (iii) the inter-birth interval and/or open interval, (iv) prenatal care by medically qualified personnel, (v) medically supervised deliveries, (vi) the rate of induced abortion, (vii) maternal and infant morbidity, and (viii) preinatal & infant mortality. 2) To measure the integrative linkage (contacts) between MW & HSC workers and between HSC and clients. 3) To examine the organizational or administrative factors influencing integrative linkage between health workers. Study design; The above objectives called for quasi-experimental design setting up a study and control area with and without a midwife. An active intervention program (FP/MCH minimum 'package' program) was conducted for a 2 year period from June 1982-July 1984 in Seosan County and 'before and after' surveys were conducted to measure the change. Service input; This study was undertaken by the Soonchunhyang University in collaboration with WHO. After a baseline survery in 1981, trained nurses/midwives were introduced into two health sub-centers in a rural setting (Seosan county) for a 2 year period from 1982 to 1984. A major service input was the establishment of midwifery services in the existing health delivery system with emphasis on nurse/midwife's role as the link between health workers (nurse aids) and village health workers, and the referral of risk patients to the private physician (OBGY specialist). An evaluation survey was made in August 1984 to assess the effectiveness of this alternative integrated approach in the study areas in comparison with the control area which had normal government services. Method of evaluation; a. In this study, the primary objective was first to examine to what extent the FP/MCH package program brought about changes in the pre-determined eight indicators (outcome and impact measures) and the following relationship was first analyzed; b. Nevertheless, this project did not automatically accept the assumption that if two or more activities were integrated, the results would automatically be better than a non-integrated or categorical program. There is a need to assess the 'integration process' itself within the package program. The process of integration was measured in terms of interactive linkages, or the quantity & quality of contacts between workers & clients and among workers. Intergrative linkages were hypothesized to be influenced by organizational factors at the HSC clinic level including HSC goals, sltrurture, authority, leadership style, resources, and personal characteristics of HSC staff. The extent or degree of integration, as measured by the intensity of integrative linkages, was in turn presumed to influence programme performance. Thus as indicated diagrammatically below, organizational factors constituted the independent variables, integration as the intervening variable and programme performance with respect to family planning and health services as the dependent variable: Concerning organizational factors, however, due to the limited number of HSCs (2 in the study area and 3 in the control area), they were studied by participatory observation of an anthropologist who was independent of the project. In this observation, we examined whether the assumed integration process actually occurred or not. If not, what were the constraints in producing an effective integration process. Summary of Findings; A) Program effects and impact 1. Effects on FP use: During this 2 year action period, FP acceptance increased from 58% in 1981 to 78% in 1984 in both the study and control areas. This increase in both areas was mainly due to the new family planning campaign driven by the Government for the same study period. Therefore, there was no increment of FP acceptance rate due to additional input of MW to the on-going FP program. But in the study area, quality aspects of FP were somewhat improved, having a better continuation rate of IUDs & pills and more use of effective Contraceptive methods in comparison with the control area. 2. Effects of use of MCH services: Between the study and control areas, however, there was a significant difference in maternal and child health care. For example, the coverage of prenatal care was increased from 53% for 1981 birth cohort to 75% for 1984 birth cohort in the study area. In the control area, the same increased from 41% (1981) to 65% (1984). It is noteworthy that almost two thirds of the recent birth cohort received prenatal care even in the control area, indicating that there is a growing demand of MCH care as the size of family norm becomes smaller 3. There has been a substantive increase in delivery care by medical professions in the study area, with an annual increase rate of 10% due to midwives input in the study areas. The project had about two times greater effect on postnatal care (68% vs. 33%) at delivery care(45.2% vs. 26.1%). 4. The study area had better reproductive efficiency (wanted pregancies with FP practice & healthy live births survived by one year old) than the control area, especially among women under 30 (14.1% vs. 9.6%). The proportion of women who preferred the 1st trimester for their first prenatal care rose significantly in the study area as compared to the control area (24% vs 13%). B) Effects on Interactive Linkage 1. This project made a contribution in making several useful steps in the direction of service integration, namely; i) The health workers have become familiar with procedures on how to work together with each other (especially with a midwife) in carrying out their work in FP/MCH and, ii) The health workers have gotten a feeling of the usefulness of family health records (statistical integration) in identifying targets in their own work and their usefulness in caring for family health. 2. On the other hand, because of a lack of required organizational factors, complete linkage was not obtained as the project intended. i) In regards to the government health worker's activities in terms of home visiting there was not much difference between the study & control areas though the MW did more home visiting than Government health workers. ii) In assessing the service performance of MW & health workers, the midwives balanced their workload between 40% FP, 40% MCH & 20% other activities (mainly immunization). However, $85{\sim}90%$ of the services provided by the health workers were other than FP/MCH, mainly for immunizations such as the encephalitis campaign. In the control area, a similar pattern was observed. Over 75% of their service was other than FP/MCH. Therefore, the pattern shows the health workers are a long way from becoming multipurpose workers even though the government is pushing in this direction. 3. Villagers were much more likely to visit the health sub-center clinic in the study area than in the control area (58% vs.31%) and for more combined care (45% vs.23%). C) Organization factors (admistrative integrative issues) 1. When MW (new workers with higher qualification) were introduced to HSC, it was noted that there were conflicts between the existing HSC workers (Nurse aids with less qualification than MW) and the MW for the beginning period of the project. The cause of the conflict was studied by an anthropologist and it was pointed out that these functional integration problems stemmed from the structural inadequacies of the health subcenter organization as indicated below; i) There is still no general consensus about the objectives and goals of the project between the project staff and the existing health workers. ii) There is no formal linkage between the responsibility of each member's job in the health sub-center. iii) There is still little chance for midwives to play a catalytic role or to establish communicative networks between workers in order to link various knowledge and skills to provide better FP/MCH services in the health sub-center. 2. Based on the above findings the project recommended to the County Chief (who has power to control the administrative staff and the technical staff in his county) the following ; i) In order to solve the conflicts between the individual roles and functions in performing health care activities, there must be goals agreed upon by both. ii) The health sub·center must function as an autonomous organization to undertake the integration health project. In order to do that, it is necessary to support administrative considerations, and to establish a communication system for supervision and to control of the health sub-centers. iii) The administrative organization, tentatively, must be organized to bind the health worker's midwive's and director's jobs by an organic relationship in order to achieve the integrative system under the leadership of health sub-center director. After submitting this observation report, there has been better understanding from frequent meetings & communication between HW/MW in FP/MCH work as the program developed. Lessons learned from the Seosan Project (on issues of FP/MCH integration in Korea); 1) A majority or about 80% of the couples are now practicing FP. As indicated by the study, there is a growing demand from clients for the health system to provide more MCH services than FP in order to maintain the achieved small size of family through FP practice. It is fortunate to see that the government is now formulating a MCH policy for the year 2,000 and revising MCH laws and regulations to emphasize more MCH care for achieving a small size family through family planning practice. 2) Goal consensus in FP/MCH shouBd be made among the health workers It administrators, especially to emphasize the need of care of 'wanted' child. But there is a long way to go to realize the 'real' integration of FP into MCH in Korea, unless there is a structural integration FP/MCH because a categorical FP is still first priority to reduce the rate of population growth for economic reasons but not yet for health/welfare reasons in practice. 3) There should be more financial allocation: (i) a midwife should be made available to help to promote the MCH program and coordinate services, (in) there should be a health sub·center director who can provide leadership training for managing the integrated program. There is a need for 'organizational support', if the decision of integration is made to obtain benefit from both FP & MCH. In other words, costs should be paid equally to both FP/MCH. The integration slogan itself, without the commitment of paying such costs, is powerless to advocate it. 4) Need of management training for middle level health personnel is more acute as the Government has already constructed 90 MCH centers attached to the County Health Center but without adequate manpower, facilities, and guidelines for integrating the work of both FP and MCH. 5) The local government still considers these MCH centers only as delivery centers to take care only of those visiting maternity cases. The MCH center should be a center for the managment of all pregnancies occurring in the community and the promotion of FP with a systematic and effective linkage of resources available in the county such as i.e. Village Health Worker, Community Health Practitioner, Health Sub-center Physicians & Health workers, Doctors and Midwives in MCH center, OBGY Specialists in clinics & hospitals as practiced by the Seosan project at primary health care level.

산업현장의 변화와 요구에 부응할 수 있는 인력을 체계적으로 양성하기 위하여 2001년에 국무조정실을 중심으로 NCS(National Competency Standards, 이하 NCS)와 국가자격체제(National Qualification Frameworks, 이하 NQF)의 도입이 결정되었다. 건설분야 내 조경 역시 2008년 "국가직무능력표준(NCS) -조경"이 시범 개발되어 2009년부터 3년간 시범운영되었다. 특히 2013년 출범한 박근혜 정부의 주요 국정과제 중 하나로 '학벌이 아닌 능력 중심의 사회 구현'이 채택되면서, 이를 실천하기 위한 구체적인 수단으로 NCS 체제 구축이 전국적으로 확산되고 있는 시점이다. 그러나 국가에서 개발한 NCS의 경우, 이상적인 직무수행능력을 명시하였기 때문에 각 대학의 학생수준의 차이, 기자재와 교수들의 확보문제, 현행교육과정의 시수 문제 등 실질적인 운영상의 문제점을 반영하지 못한 단점이 있으므로, 이를 현실적인 교육과정에 연착륙시키기 위해서는 현재의 교육과정과 NCS와의 차이 즉 갭(gap)을 명확히 분석하는 과정이 선행되어야 한다. 갭분석은 기존의 교육과정을 NCS 기반 교육과정으로 개편하기 위한 초기 단계의 방법론으로 NCS 능력단위별 능력단위요소와 수행준거를 기준으로 학과 내 기존 교육과정과의 괴리도 혹은 일치 정도를 1에서 5까지 리커트 척도를 활용하여 기입한 후 분석하는 방법이다. 이처럼 현재의 대학 내 교육과정과 NCS와의 일치 및 괴리 정도를 측정함으로써 향후 NCS 운영을 희망하는 대학에서는 NCS의 적용 가능성과 개발 운영 이후의 효과성을 검증할 수 있는 기초 도구를 확보할 수 있다. 갭분석을 통한 교육과정 개편의 장점으로는 첫째, 정부의 재정지원 사업과 연계하여 정성적인 학과별 NCS 도입률에 대한 정량적 지표를 제공할 수 있으며, 둘째, NCS 기반 교육과정 개편 시 부족한 혹은 포화상태인 부분에 대한 객관적인 기준을 제공해 준다. 즉, 해당 NCS 세분류 도입 시 부족한 능력단위 및 능력단위요소를 추출할 수 있으며, 기존 과목별 능력단위요소별로 보완 사항도 추출할 수 있는 동시에, 이를 통한 상세 강의계획서 및 기초 교과목 개설을 위한 방향성을 제시해 주는 장점이 있다. 다만, 현재까지 개발된 갭분석의 이론을 보완하여 보다 체계적으로 정비해야 하는 과제는 남아 있다. 교육부, 고용노동부는 산업현장의 요구를 교육훈련 및 자격에 체계적으로 반영하기 위해 관련 산업계 인사들이 모여 실무적인 차원에서 NCS 표준을 적극적으로 개발하고 보급하여야 하며, NCS 적용을 희망하는 대학에서는 일과 자격이 연계될 수 있는 교육과정을 NCS 기반으로 개편하여야 할 것이다. 이를 위해 대학에서는 관련 산업 전망 및 대학 내 교수자원과 지역 산업과의 관련성을 고려하여 적용하고자 하는 NCS 세분류를 명확히 선정하여야 할 것이다. 이후 NCS 기반 교육과정 개편을 위해 갭분석을 사용하여 개편의 방향과 기준을 보다 객관적이고 합리적으로 수립하여 교육과정명세서에 대한 명확한 논리적 근거를 확보하고 있어야 과정이수형 자격제도에 효율적으로 동참할 수 있을 것이다.

유이지방산함량이 높은 동물성지방을 육계사료의 지방원으로 첨가 급여하여 그 이용성과 육질에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 사양시험과 육질평가시험을 실시하였다. 사양시험은 갓 부화된 육계 수평아리 108수를 3개처리, 3반복으로 12수씩 나누어 8주간 시험사료를 급여하였다. 유이지방산함량이 각각 15 및 38.6%인 Yellow grease와 Animal fat(상품명)를 전기(0-4주)와 후기(5-8주) 사료에 각각 3 및 5%씩 첨가 급여하여 격주의 간격으로 사료섭취량과 증체량을 조사하였고 시험종료시 Shank color를 측정하였다. 사료의 단백질과 대사에너지함량은 처리간에 비슷하도록 하였다. 육질을 평가하기 위해 사양시험이 끝난후 각 처리구당 7수씩을 선발, 도살하여 복부지방의 함량과 가슴살과 다리살에 대한 관능검사와 가슴살에서 총지방함량, 유리지방산함량, 옥도가 및 과산화물가의 화학적 성질을 측정하였다. 지방을 첨가하지 않은 사료를 급여한 대조구와 Yellow grease나 Animal fat 첨가구는 전기사료 급여기간동안 세 처리구간에 사료섭취량, 증체량, 사료효율에서 아무런 유의차가 나타나지 않았다. 후기사료 급여기간동안에는 대조구에 비하여 지방처리구에서 사료섭취량은 평균 10.8%, 증체량은 25.0%, 그리고 사료효율은 11.3%, 개선효과가 있었다. 전체기간(0-8주)으로 보면 사료섭취량은 8.8%, 증체량은 16.2%, 사료효율은 6.8%의 개선효과가 있는 것으로 나타났으나 두가지 지방 급원간에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 정갱이의 차색정도는 전반적으로 6.9-7.7정도의 범위였고 지방첨가구들이 약간 떨어지는 경향이 보였으나 세 처리간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 다리살과 가슴살에 대한 관능검사 결과는 지방을 첨가하지 않은 대조구와 지방을 첨가 급여한 처리구들사이에 아무런 유의차가 나타나지 않았다. 가슴살에 축적된 지방의 화학적 성질은 대조구에 비해 Yellow grease나 Animal fat를 첨가 급여한 처리구에 총 지방함량이 각각 7.77, 6.66 및 6.32였고 유이지방산함량은 9.23, 9.73 및 9.31mg/g fat, 옥도가는 65.36, 66.89 및 59.25g/100g fat, 그리고 과산화물가는 9.62, 10.46 및 8.79meq/kg fat이어서 각 처리간에 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 10일간의 냉장저장(4$^{\circ}C$)에 따른 가슴살이의 유이지방산함량의 변화상태는 모두 처리구에서 비슷한 경향을 보여 5일만에 거의 3배 정도로 증가하였고 그후 10일째까지는 더 이상 변화하지 않았다. 이상의 결과를 종합할 때 본 시험에 사용한 Animal fat는 유이지방산함량이 38.6% 정도로 높을지라도 육계에서의 사료적 가치나 육질에 미치는 영향에서 Yellow grease와 조금도 차이가 없이 안전하게 사용될 수 있다고 판단된다.

건국대학교본 연구는 쑥의 추출물을 이용해 생체내에서 에탄올의 분해효능, 간기능 및 Cd 독성 저하작용에 미치는 효과를 알아보기 위하여 실시하였다. 본 실험에서 에탄올 분해효능은 Rat 1kg 당 25% 에탄을 5g을 경구투여한 후 쑥추출물의 카테킨 농도를 측정하여 이를 기준으로 일일 사료섭취량의 2% 원료수준으로 각각 미정맥주사를 하였다. 에탄올만 경구투여한 대조군과 에탄올을 경구투여한 후 쑥추출물을 미정맥주사한 실험군은 시간별(0, 1, 2, 3시간)로 미정맥에서 혈액을 채취해 3000rpm에서 10분간 원심분리하여 혈장을 분리시킨 후 GC(Gas Chromatography)로 혈중 에탄올 농도를 측정하였다. 또한 같은 방법으로 시간만 달리해 (0시간, 5시간) 혈장을 취해 GOT, GPT의 활성치를 측정하여 간손상정도를 측정하였다. 간기능에 미치는 효과는 간실질세포를 기본배지에 배양한 대조군과 쑥추출물을 배지의 1% 및 2% 원료수준으로 기본배지에 첨가하여 간실질세포를 배양한 실험군으로 나누어 36시간 배양한 후 현미경으로 형태를 관찰하고 생존 세포수와 GOT, GPT의 활성치를 함께 측정하였다. Cd 독성 저하작용은 4주령의 Sprague-Dawley 수컷 흰쥐를 구입하여 대조군(CON,0.85% saline 10ml/kg B.W.)과 Cd단독 투여군(CD, 0.4mg $CdCl_2/kg$ B.W.), Cd과 쑥추출물을 복강내 투여한 군(IP, 쑥 추출물은 일일사료섭취량의 1% 수준) 그리고 쑥추출물을 구강내 투여한 군(PO, 쑥 추출물은 일일사료섭취량의 1%수준)으로 분류하여 4주간 사육하였다. 사육 후 각종 장기 및 혈액을 채취하여 장기에서의 GSH 농도, GSH-Px 및 GR의 활성과 혈장 GOT, GPT 활성을 측정하였고 더불어 각 조직에서 Cd축적량을 조사하였다. 실험결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 쑥추출물의 카테킨의 함량을 Iwasa와 Torri의 방법을 변형하여 측정한 결과 네 가지의 추출물중에서 카테킨의 함량은 쑥의 열수추출물이 $8{\sim}10mg/100g$으로 가장 많았으며 쑥의 에탄올 추출물은 $3{\sim}4mg/100g$인 것으로 나타났다. (2) 쑥 추출물을 HPLC를 이용해 주요 카테킨의 성분을 비교한 결과 쑥의 열수추출물 및 에탄올추출물은 (-)-Epigallocatechin (EGC)의 함량이 가장 높았다. (3) 시간에 따른 혈중 에탄올 농도를 GC로 측정한 결과 각각 에탄올을 투여한지 1시간 후의 에탄올 농도에서는 CON-E의 경우가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났고 MDW-E, MOH-E군은 CON-E에 비해 유의하게(p<0.05) 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. (4) 간실질세포 배양 36시간 후 배지를 걷어내고 밑면에 모인 세포를 모아 현미경으로 수를 측정하여 평균을 낸 결과는 2% MDW-L가 가장 많았으며 2% MOH-L을 제외하고는 CON-L의 세포수가 가장 적었다. 또한 배양 후 취한 세포내의 GOT, GPT의 활성치는 실험군간의 유의한 차이는 없었다. (6) 간 조직중의 GSH 함량수준은 쑥추출물 투여군들(IP, PO)이 CD군에 비해 유의적으로 증가(p<0.05)하여 대조군과 같은 정상수준으로 되었다. (7) 간 신장에서의 GSH-Px 활성은 저농도의 Cd에 의해서는 영향을 받지 않은 것으로 나타났다. (8) 혈장 GOT활성은 IP군이 대조군에 비해 증가하였으나 CD군에 비해 유의적으로 감소(p<0.05)하였다. 이상의 결과에서 쑥추출물이 체내에서 에탄올 분해를 촉진시키고 간기능을 개선시킴은 물론 GSH농도의 정상회복과 GR의 증가 및 혈장에서의 GOT활성의 감소 등으로 보아 Cd의 간독성도 감소시키는 작용이 있는 것으로 사료되었다.

본 연구에서는 잔디밭 잡초방제를 합리적이고 체계적으로 행하기 위한 선택성(選擇性) 제초제(除草劑)의 개발과 약제제초방법(藥劑除草方法)을 추구할 목적으로 신규(新規)제초제와 기존(旣存) 제초제의 단제(單劑), 혼합(混合) 또는 조합(組合)하여 21종의 제초제에 대하여 한지형(寒地型) 잔디 2 종과 난지형(暖地型) 잔디 1종 그리고 잔디밭 우점초종(優占草種) 18 종을 대상으로 잔디 이식후 4 일 후 및 25 일 후 잡초발아전 처리를 행하였고 또한 잡초 발생 후 경엽처리를 실시하였으며, 계절에 따라 발생하는 잡초를 방제하기 위해 봄, 가을 및 잔디 휴면기(休眠期)에 제초제룰 처리하였고 아울러 포장적응성 실험을 행하여 잔디에 대한 생육 혹은 약해와 제초효과를 검토하였던 바 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 잔디 이식 후 4 일 후 및 25 일 후 처리에서 한국잔디와 2 종의 벤트그래스에 안정성이 인정되는 약제 및 약량은 napropamide 200 - 400 g /10 a prod., napropamide + triclopyr 100 + 200 g, 150 + 150g 및 200 + 100g, triclopyr 300 - 500 g, benefin 1500 - 2500 g 이었다. Simazine, lenacil, bentazon은 벤트그래스에는 다소(多少)의 생육 감소가 있었으나 한국잔디에는 안전하였다. 2. Simazine, benefin, napropamid + simazine의 토양겸(土壤兼) 경엽처리(莖葉處理)에 의한 제초효과는 바랭이, 방동사니, 명아주, 쇠비름, 중대가리풀 등 공시 초종 모두에 대해서 우수하였다. Lenacil은 명아주에 대해서 전혀 효과가 없었고, napropamide는 광엽에 대해서, triclopyr는 방동사니와 쇠비름에 대해서, bentazon은 바랭이에 대해서 약간의 잔초(殘草)가 있었고 각 약제 모두 가타 공시초종에 대한 방제효과는 우수하였다. Napropamide 또는 triclopyr에 simazine을 조합처리(組合處理)했을 때 제초효과는 상승되었다. 3. 경엽처리제(莖葉處理劑) 중 mecoprop, bentazon, benefin + dicamba, benefin + mecoprop는 벤트그래스에 대하여 안정성이 있었다. 한국잔디에 대한 생육억제는 simazine + atrazine을 제외한 공시경엽처리제 모두 인정할 수 없었다. 4. 경엽처리제(莖葉處理劑) 중 피에 대한 효과는 mecoprop과 triclopyr를 제외한 공시약제 모두 85~100%의 높은 방제율이었다. 바랭이에 대해서는 공시약제 모두 60 - 85% 범위의 방제율을 나타내고, 방동산이에 대해서는 bentazon만 100%의 방제율을 보였다. 매듭풀에 대해서는 benefin + mecoprop가 저조(低調)한 효과를 나타냈을 뿐 기타 약제 모두 90-100%의 우수한 효과를 나타냈다. 5. 봄철 토양겸(土壤兼) 경엽처리(莖葉處理)를 한 잔디의 생육은 simazine, lenacil, napropamide + simazine 처리에서 벤트그래스가 감소되었고 기타 처리에서는 공시잔디 3 종 모두 좋은 생육율을 나타냈다. 제초효과는 lenacil과 bentazon이 피에 대해서, bensulide가 망초에 대해서, napropamide와 bentazon이 매듭풀에 대해서 각각 저조(低調)하였을 뿐 기타 처리에서는 85~100%의 우수한 방제율을 나타냈다. 6. 가을철 토양겸 경엽처리에서의 잔디생육은 봄에 처리한 결과와 유사하였다. 제초효과는 triclopyr가 피에 대해서, bentazon 과 pendimethalin이 새포아풀에 대해서 다소 떨어진 결과였다. 광엽(廣葉)의 제초효과는 냉 이가 napropamide, benefin, bensulide에 대해서 매우 내성(耐性)을 보였고 별꽃에 대해서 napropamide, bentazon, napropamide + triclopyr, benefin의 효과가 낮았다. 벼룩나물과 점 나도나물은 공시약제 모두에 80 - 100%가 방제되었다. 7. 한국잔디 휴면기(休眠期) 처리(處理)에서 paraquat나 glyphosate의 잔디에 대한 약해는 없었다. 一年生인 새포아풀의 방제효과는 우수하였으나 다년생(多年生)은 토끼풀>억새>메꽃${\geq}$쑥의 순으로 다소(多少)의 억제효과가 있었다. 8. 공시약제 19 종 모두 한국잔디 포장에서의 약해는 없었다. 잡초 발아전 토양겸 경엽처리제 10 종 모두 다년생에 대해서는 효과가 거의 없거나 미약(微弱)하였으나 1년생 잡초에는 우수한 방제효과를 나타냈다. 잡초 발생 후 2 - 3 엽기 처리에서 공시약제 모두 광엽잡초에 대하여 우수한 살초효과를 나타냈고 기타 다년생 및 일년생 화본과와 방동사니에 대한 살초효과는 미약(微弱)하거나 거의 없었다.

우리나라에 유통업체상표(Private Label)가 도입된 지 10년이 넘었음에도 불구하고 유통업체 상표에 대한 대부분의 연구는 소비자 관점에서 진행되어져 왔다. 본 연구는 유통업체상표를 소비자 관점이 아닌 제조업체의 관점에서 바라본 연구로, 제조업체의 유통업체상표 생산에 영향을 미치는 내외부적 요인들에 대해서 자원기반이론과 S-C-P Paradigm의 통합적인 연구모형인 전략적 시장관리 관점을 제시하였다. 연구결과를 보면, 제조업체의 마케팅 역량이 높을수록 전체 매출에서 유통업체상표가 차지하는 매출이 적은 것으로 나타났으며, 마케팅 역량에는 제조업체 브랜드명성, 마케팅 투자, 제품포트폴리오 등이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 제조업체의 마케팅 역량과 유통업체 상표 생산 간의 관계에는 제조업체의 경쟁강도가 조절효과를 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 일반적으로 마케팅 역량이 높은(낮은) 기업일수록 전체 매출에서 유통업체상표가 차지하는 비율이 낮지만(높지만), 이러한 기업들 중 경쟁강도를 낮게 지각하는 제조업체의 전체매출 중 유통업체상표가 차지하는 매출은 경쟁강도를 높게 지각하는 제조업체들에 비해 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로, 본 연구는 유통업체상표 생산에 대한 이론 및 실무적인 시사점을 제시하고 있다.

오늘날 우리사회가 맞고 있는 가치관의 변화, 도덕성의 불괴와 더불어 가정폭력은 중대한 사회문제로 대두되고 있는 실정이다. 흔히 문제가 되는 가정 폭력으로는 배우자학대, 아동학대, 노인학대, 근친상간등을 들수있는데 특히 근친상간은 그 문제의 은폐성으로 인하여 정확한 발생빈도조차 파악되지 않고 있다는점이 그 심각성을 더해주고 있다. 그러나 아동에 대한 성적학대의 한 형태인 근친상간이 높은 빈도로 발생하고 있다는 사실은 여러문헌을 통하여 간접적으로 알려진 사실이다. 근친상간은 매우 역기능적인 가족관계에서 유발되며 이러한 환경에서 성장한 자녀가 성인이 된후 그들의 자녀를 성적으로 학대하는 경향이 높다는 악순환성에서 그 심각성을 엿볼수 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 근친상간 경험청소년의 성격적특성, 근친상간 발생 가정내 가족원의 성격적특성과 정신병력 유무 및 근친상간발생 가정의 가족역동을 알아보기 위함이다. 연구방법은 설문지와 면담을 통한 측정조사연구로써 조사대상자는 중학교 1학년에서 고등학교 3학년까지 재학중인 학생청소년 1,237명과 소년원, 분류심사원에 재원중인 비행분류심사원, 범죄 청소년 601명중 불충분한 응답자 142명을 제외한 1,696명을 대상으로 하였다. 조사결과 전체 연구대상자중 근친상간경험비율은 3.7%였으며 근친상간유형별로는 형제-자매간 근친상간유형이 1.6%로 가장 높았다. 근친상간경험 청소년의 성격특성은 근친상간비경험 청소년에 비해 미숙하고, 융통서이 적으며, 의사표현력의 결여, 충동적, 학업성적의 저조와 긴장, 불안 및 의존적 성향을 보여주었으며 가족원중에도 우울증환자, 알코올중독자, 정신병력자 및 범법행위자등이 많았다. 또한 근친상간발생 가정의 가족역동은 근친상간이 발생하지 않은 가정의 가족역동에 비해 매우 역기능적이었음을 알수 있었다. 즉 근친상간 발생 가정의 가정분위기는 매우 불안정하였으며, 자녀에 대한 부모의 거부적 태도, 가족원간의 불화, 원만하지 않은 부부관계등을 보여주었다.로 나타났으며, 특히 LNNB-C의 지적 과정 척도(C11)와 FSIQ간에 가장 높은 부적 상관을 보여주었다. 이러한 절과들은 모두 뇌손상을 진단하는 신경심리 검사로서 한국판 LNNB-C의 타당도 및 진단 변별력이 우수함을 입증해주는 결과라 할 수 있다.形 父母平定尺度)(CAPRS), 아동행동조사표(兒童行動調査表) 및 연속과제수행(連續課題遂行)에서 호전을 보였고, 투여 2개월후에서도 같은 양상의 호전을 보였으며, 또한 아동행동조사표(兒童行動調査表)에서 외향성(外向性)은 물론 소통불능(疏通不能)${\cdot}$사회적위축(社會的萎縮)${\cdot}$과잉행동(過剩行動)${\cdot}$공격성(攻擊性)${\cdot}$비행요인(非行要因)에서도 호전양상을 보였다. 이와같은 결과는 이 두 약물이 모두 주의력(注意力)과 인지기능(認知機能)을 증진시키기는 하였으나, 보다 뚜렷한 변화는 methylphenidate 투여후에 볼 수 있었다. 특히 methylphenidate투여후 연속과제수행(連續課題遂行)에서 민감도(敏感度)와 반응오류수(反應誤謬數)의 호전이 있었으나 반응기준(反應基準)에는 변화가 없었다는 소견, 그리고 단기기억수행(短期記憶遂行)에서의 호전과 '같은 그림 찾기' 검사의 오류수(誤謬數)에서 변화가 없었다는 소견은 methylphenidate가 훈기요인(勳機要因)의 호전에 의한 이차적인 변화에 의한 것이 아니라 주의집중력(注意集中力)에 직접적으로 효과를 나타내는 것으로 해석할 수 있었다. 또한 이같은 소견으로 주의력결핍(注意力缺乏)${\cdot}$과잉운동장애환아(過剩運動障碍患兒)에서의 충동성(衝動性)은 이 장애의 중심증상이 아니거나, 이들 약물투여에 의해 호전되지 않거나, 호전의 측정에 문제가 있을 수도 있겠다. 마지막으로 주의력결핍(注意力缺乏)${\cdot}$과잉운동장애(過剩運動障碍)에서 과잉행동(過剩行動)과

방사선치료 중 내부 장기의 움직임을 확인하고 이를 보정하는 것은 움직이는 종양에 정확히 방사선을 조사하는데 매우 중요한 역할을 한다. 실제 치료 중 획득한 연속촬영 전자조사 문(cine EPID) 영상을 이용해 치료 중 내부 장기 움직임을 추적하는 오프라인 기반 분석 시스템(IMVS, Internal-organ Motion Verification System using cine EPID)을 개발하였고 모형을 이용하여 개발된 시스템의 정확도와 유용성을 평가했다. IMVS는 cine EPID영상을 이용한 내부 장기 움직임 추적을 위해 내부 표지자를 이용한 유형 정합 알고리즘을 이용했다. 시스템의 성능평가를 위해 폐와 폐 종양을 묘사한 인체 모형과 이를 상하(SI, superior-inferior)방향으로 직선 운동시키는 구동 장치와 제어 프로그램을 고안했다. 모형을 4초 주기로 2 cm 직선 운동 시키면서 10 MV X선으로 3.3 fps, 6.6 fps속도로 cine EPID 영상($1,024{\times}768$ 해상도)를 획득했다. 획득된 cine EPID 영상은 IMVS를 이용하여 표적의 움직임을 추적하고 기존 외부 표지자를 이용한 비디오 영상 기반 추적시스템(RPM, Real-time Position Management, Varian, USA)으로부터 얻은 결과와 비교했다. 정량적 평가를 위해 두 시스템으로부터 움직임의 평균 주기(Peak-To-Peak), 진폭과 패턴(RMS, Root Mean Square)을 측정하여 비교했다. RPM과 IMVS로 측정한 폐 종양 모형의 움직임 주기는 각각 $3.95{\pm}0.02$ (RPM), $3.98{\pm}0.11$ (IMVS 3.3 fps), $4.005{\pm}0.001$ (IMVS 6.6 fps) 초로 실제움직임 주기인 4초와 잘 일치했다. IMVS로 획득한 모형 내부장기의 평균 움직임 진폭은 3.3 fps에서 $1.85{\pm}0.02$ cm, 6.6 fps에서 $1.94{\pm}0.02$ cm으로 실제 진폭 2 cm에 비해 각각 0.15 cm (오차 7.5%) 및 0.06 cm (오차 3%)의 차를 보였다. 움직임 신호의 일치성 평가를 위해 측정한 RMS는 0.1044 (IMVS 3.3 fps), 0.0480 (IMVS 6.6 fps)로 계획된 신호와 잘 일치 했다. cine EPID 영상을 이용하여 내부 표지자의 움직임을 추적하는 IMVS는 모형 실험에서 내부 장기의 움직임을 3% 오차 내에서 확인 가능했다. IMVS는 치료 중 내부장기 움직임을 측정하고 이를 사차원 방사선 치료계획과 비교하여 오차를 보정하는데 기여할 것으로 생각된다.
