The purpose of this . study is to examine the unsatisfactory factors of the physical therapists and to obtain the materials necessary to comply with these factors by analysing their service performance and job satisfaction, To accomplish these purposes, this study was carried out by using the questionnaires 206 physical therapists registered in the Korean Physical Therapists Association, for 35 days from January 7 to February 10, 1990. The result of this study is summarized as follows. 1. Of total respondents, the male accounted for 54.4 percent, while the female for 45.6 percent. Their age showed that 20s accounted for 65.0 percent, while the service period less than 3 years accounted for 66.5 percent. In addition, 63.6 percent of them served at the general clinics. 2. The general clinics caused the physical therapists to serve for 10 hours or more per day, where their therapy room located in the underground accounted for 41.3 percent. Their health diagnosis status indicated that nondiagnosis accounted for 63.2 percent. The number of the served patients fer a day showed that 20-30 accounted for 37.4 percent, while 30 persons or more for 25.7 percent. 53.4 percent of total subjects was unsatisfied with their duty quantity. And, the monthly salary indicated that 500,000 or less accounted for 72.3 percent. 3. The average marks by their job satisfaction factors indicated 4.42 for duty importance, 4.02 for recognization of specialized job, 3.98 for ability exercise, 1.99 for promotion possibility, 2.28 for reasonable salary, and 2.41 for welfare system, respectively, based on 5 full marks. 4. The summarized job satisfaction by factors indicated that the relation with the doctor accounted for 57.8 percent, the satisfaction status with the existing job for 53.4 percent, the ability development for 41.8 percent, respectively, and the salary for 10.2 percent. Then, the satisfaction by sex showed that the male was generally satisfied with the ability development (p<0.05), the relation with the doctor (p<0.01), and the satisfaction with the existing job, while the female was satisfied with the duty quantity(p<0.05), salary, and the situation guarantee (p<0.05). On the other hand, the satisfaction by age indicated that the subject of the lower age were satisfied with the ability development (p<0.01), the relation with the doctor(p<0.05), the salary, and the situation guarantee. Also, the satisfaction by the service section showed that the physical therapists serving at the general hospital were satisfied with the ability development (p<0.01), the duty quantity (p<0.01), the salary(p<0.01), the situation guarantee(p<0.01), and the satisfaction with the existing duty (p<0.05), while the physical therapists at the hospital and the rehabilitation center were unsatisfied with the salary (p<0.01). In addition, The satisfaction with the service period at the existing section indicated that the physical therapists less than 3 years were highly satisfied with the ability development, the relation with the doctor, the situation guarantee, and the existing duty(p<0.05), while the physical therapists more than 6 years tended to show the lower satisfaction, And the satisfaction with the monthly salary indicated that the higher the monthly salary, the higher the satisfaction with the relation to the doctor(p<0.05), the duty quantity(p<0.01), the salary(p<0.01), and the situation guarantee (p<0.01). 5. The correlation between general characteristics and job satisfaction factors indicated that the sex was directly correlated to the marital status (r=-0.442), while it was reversely correlated to the age (r=-0.564) , total career (r=-0.229), and the relation with the doctor (r=-0.233). Additionally, the age was directly correlated to the total carreer (r=-0.677), and the service period at the existing section (r=0.491), while the age was reversely correlated to the marital status (r=-0.678). Accordingly, the higher job satisfaction of the physical therapists was related to factors such as their duty importance, recognization of specialized occupation, ability exercise, autonomy, relation to colleagues, decision-making's consideration, and relation with the doctor, while the lower job satisfaction includes the opportunity of promotion, salary, welfare system, service time, duty quantity, and situation guarantee. For this reason, if the factors of the lower job satisfaction are solved, then it will be possible to encourage the motive of these physical therapists, and the acyivate their duties. More over, it is also possible to improve the medical service, Additionally, if the general physical therapy room in the hospital and in the public health center are established, more development should be accomplished in the physical therapy.

Recently changes in the technological environment of marine transportation and the increase of traffic volume have fostered a revolution in the design and operation of port and also playing a major role in the development of new types of port in Asian. These changes are dynamic and will continue to influence port physical distribution system. The port of Pusan has been hardly able to handle the traffic increases in recent years by expansion increased mechanization and other operational and institutional improvements but, further traffic increases bring about critical congestion and such congestion is an economic cost to the country in terms of cost of physical distribution. This paper treats the development of entirely new port of Pusan and related transportation system by considering the existing or expected need for improved port capacity and services. The western part of GADUK island is selected as the optimum port site through the detailed analysis of the physical requirement and careful consideration of regional development and since the lead time of the national development plan including the port project from initial planning to implementation is considered as long as 7 to 10 years the aggregated master plan for port development is made and implemented in the year of 2012.

A survey was conducted on 2,321 Chung Rhang Middle School boys to check out their physical growth, development and the number of parasite carriers during the period from June 16. to June 23. 1970 As the results of this study, the following conclusions were revealed. A) Physical Growth and Development State. 1. Direct curve in physical growth and development was observed during the period from 13 to 16 years of age. 2. The age and quantity of maximum growth and development. Height; 13~14 years of age 6.1cm Body weight; 14~15 years of age 5.1kg Chest circumference; 13~14 years of age 9.9cm Sitting height; 14~15 years of age 3.4cm 3. Comparison with Japanese students Most Korean students are shorter than Japanese students, though the standard of height became higher than before. The standard of body weight is visibly lower than Japanese students. The standard of chest circumference of the students of age 14 is higher than counter part of Japanese students and the all boys are lower than Japanese students except at the age of 14. The standard of the sitting heights of the Korean students are growing steadily, but every students are shorter than Japanese students. 4. The greatest differences in physical growth and development were shown in 13~14 years of age. 5. The students of 13~15 years of age developed their bodies most highly according to index of Rohrer. 6. Body weight and chest circumference have not grown enough compared with height. The development of sitting height was made highly and the development is steadily growing as they grow old. B. The Number of Parasite Carriers The number of parasite carriers was shown 79.4 per cent among all the student checked out. The number of trichuris was shown 79.7 per cent.
