This study investigates the effects of the purpose of fishery firms' social contributions on consumers' purchase intention as a mediator or their fishery firms' brand evaluation. We surveyed 300 consumers in order to empirically test the suggested relationship. The purpose of fishery firms' social contributions was divided into social contribution activities and public interest marketing strategies. Fishery firms' brand evaluation was divided into three aspects including brand awareness, brand image, and brand loyalty. The results showed that the purpose of fishery firms' social contributions significantly affect consumers' purchase intention, brand loyalty as well as brand image except brand awareness. Fishery firms' brand evaluation significantly affect consumers' purchase intention. This study suggests that social contribution activities and public interest marketing strategies are essential for the positive brand evaluation of fishery firms.

본 논문에서는 퍼블릭 워터마킹(public watermarking)에서 영상 블록의 유효성에 기반을 둔 상호연관성(cross-correlation property)과 관련기법을 제안하였다. 이 과정에서 워터마크의 비인식성(imperceptibility)과 깨지기 쉬운 워터마크(fragile watermark)를 보장하기 위하여 DCT(Discrete Cosine Transformation) 도메인의 고주파 영역을 사용하였다. 여러 가지 실험을 통하여 에러가 보정된 원본 영상(original image)들과 워터마크된 이미지(watermarked image)들 사이에 유효한 블록들이 동일함을 확인하였다. 그리고 이러한 상호연관성이 추후의 퍼블릭 워터마킹을 위한 응용들에 적용될 수 있음을 입증하였다.

The differentiation of this study is largely based on the above discussion. First, I would like to examine the main factors that affect the image of the local government's special transport agencies in terms of users and suggest strategic options for promoting the local government's special traffic. Second, a public service approach is very necessary considering the concept of new public transport such as local government special transport, individual use experience and social impact. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the characteristics of local government special traffic through the five important factors of the service quality which are not capable of objectively measuring the characteristics of the service.

In the glocal era, the competition becomes more intense in regional development centered around cities rather than countries. This suggests that increasing the city's unique charms through a positive city image can allow the city to gain a competitive edge in the competition for regional development. In this background, this study would contribute to improving the positive image of Pyeongtaek City, presenting the value and development direction of the image it would pursue, aiming to develop a promotional design for the improvement of the city image. As the details of the research, this study recognized the city image as an efficient means of public relations of the city from its concept and necessity. Thus, this study conducted a survey on the analysis of status and image of Pyeongtaek City. This study would contribute to improving the positive image of Pyeongtaek City, presenting the results of the development of a promotional design of its administration and a plan for utilization in the manual, proceeding by stages.

Chungcheoungnam-do public relation office remodeling in Hangdam-do resting place is transpotation hub. But many people are not using because discrepancy between the lack of publicity surrounding. public relation office unique role is racking with limited content and mixing operations. Thus, in public relation office to inform the development of new content items in conjunction with the development of advertisements is required. Regional branding can be the basis of the active region by unique region image to define regional identity to create regional image to secure sustainable competitiveness. The purpose of study predict remodeling aspect through analysis of existing public relation office and similar research on domestic and international facilities management practices and success factors for other public relation office. The basic design plan through a feasibility study, the first floor is specialties dealership and the second floor is cafe, public relation office and therapy space.

A fast image encryption system based on substitution and diffusion was proposed, which includes one covering process, one substitution process and two diffusion processes. At first, Chen's chaotic system together with an external 256-bit long secret key was used to generate the key streams for image encryption, in which the initial values of Chen's chaotic system were regarded as the public key. Then the plain image was masked by the covering process. After that the resulting image was substituted with the disturbed S-Box of AES. Finally, the substituted image was diffused twice with the add-modulo operations as the core to obtain the cipher image. Simulation analysis and comparison results with AES and some existing image cryptosystems show that the proposed image cryptosystem possesses the merits of fast encryption/decryption speed, good statistical characteristics, strong sensitivity and etc., and can be used as a candidate system of network security communication.

Objectives: Mental health disorders and suicide are an important and growing public health concern in Korea. Evidence has shown that both globally and in Korea, obesity is associated with an increased risk of developing some psychiatric disorders. Therefore, we examined the association between distorted body weight perception (BWP) and suicidal ideation. Methods: Data were obtained from the 2007-2012 Korea National Health and Nutritional Evaluation Survey (KNHANES), an annual cross-sectional nationwide survey that included 14 276 men and 19 428 women. Multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to investigate the associations between nine BWP categories, which combined body image (BI) and body mass index (BMI) categories, and suicidal ideation. Moreover, the fitness of our models was verified using the Akaike information criterion. Results: Consistent with previous studies, suicidal ideation was associated with marital status, household income, education level, and perceived health status in both genders. Only women were significantly more likely to have distorted BWP; there was no relationship among men. In category B1 (low BMI and normal BI), women (odds ratio [OR], 2.25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.48 to 3.42) were more likely to express suicidal ideation than women in category B2 (normal BMI and normal BI) were. Women in overweight BWP category C2 (normal BMI and fat BI) also had an increased OR for suicidal ideation (OR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.48 to 3.42). Those in normal BWP categories were not likely to have suicidal ideation. Among women in the underweight BWP categories, only the OR for those in category A2 (normal BMI and thin BI) was significant (OR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.13 to 1.59). Conclusions: Distorted BWP should be considered an important factor in the prevention of suicide and for the improvement of mental health among Korean adults, especially Korean women with distorted BWPs.
