The community health nursing process is essential in providing community health nursing service to the community. It helps to identify community health problems. to prioritize problems, to provide service. and to evaluate service results. However. it is very rare to find a study which applies the community health nursing process. This study intended to apply the community health nursing process to a urban community. The focus of the study was a community consisting of 533 families in a region of Seoul. The study process was as follows: 1) The data was collected by conducting interviews with community leaders and by collecting surveys from the people of the community. 2) The data was summarized and analyzed. 3) The community nursing diagnosis was identified. 4) The nursing diagnosis was prioritized. 5) The general and specific objectives for service were identified. 6) A specific nursing plan was set up. 7) A detailed evaluation plan was established. Four community nursing diagnoses were identified from the community. 1) The utilization rate of health center was found to be low due to lack of knowledge about the health center and low accessibility. 2) High trafic accident rate due to narrow roads. 3) High prevalence of chronic disease due to inappropriate health behavior. 4) High noise level and foul smell due to inappropriate waste management. Among the four community nursing diagnoses. 'High prevalence of chronic diseases was identified as a priority community nursing problem. The criteria for prioritizing community nursing problems were as follows: number of people involved, fragility of clients. severity of the problem. availability. of resources. concern of the people. readiness of nurses. relevance to the national policy. This study describes the general and specific objectives to solve the high prevalence of chronic health problems. nursing plans. and an evaluation plan.

The purpose of this study is to understand and analyze the satisfaction level of users regarding the search and search results of D College Library system implemented by Open API. For the study, 90 students of D College searched the library system with 4 subjects regarding on current affairs and assignments, and then evaluated the satisfaction on search functionality and contents usability. In results, they satisfied search expansion in general. Especially, the satisfaction levels for the convenience of search method and preview was the highest, but that of level for the arrangement and browsing of search results and the searching speed was the lowest. In terms of currentness, relevance, usefulness and utilizability aspects, Naver was the most highly evaluated, followed by library’s database, dissertation/academic journals, Youtube and Flikr. The cause of the unsatisfactory could be reduced when the library system implements the useful and attractive search interface.

The main objective of this research is to build a behavior prediction model of gameplay for MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) game using the GOMS analysis method. GOMS analysis is an observational approach to HCI(Human Computer Interaction) to model and predict behaviors of a human operator in a highly interactive task. In this research, a pilot experiment was previously conducted with three skilled gamers. The gamers were provided with the goals and operators through the user's guide book, and they found methods and selection rules while being observed. Based on the results obtained from the pilot study, this research was expanded and the model was further tested with 30 subjects (game experts). The new outcomes revealed that the relevance of GOMS analysis for predicting selection rules is 96.25% according to the degree of abstraction and 77.35% based on the degree of complexity. This research will provide game designers with a new testing mechanism in the early development stages, in order to improve the quality of the game product.

This study investigates Korean consumers' general perception on brand authenticity, tests the influences of authenticity determinants on the evaluation of fashion brand authenticity and compares the influences in terms of brand category (luxury/non-luxury). A three-stage methodological approach was adopted: (1) A literature review identifies authenticity determinants and generates measurement items. (2) A preliminary study uses a quantitative survey (n=50) to purify the determinants. (3) A quantitative consumer survey (n=150) identifies general perceptions on brand authenticity by measuring the perceived relevance of brand authenticity on determinants and explores the influence of determinants on authenticity evaluations using purified measurements of authenticity determinants. The results of general perception on brand authenticity show that Korean consumers deem authentic brands as honest, sincere and socially responsible. The results indicate obvious differences between luxury and non-luxury brands towards the influence of perceived authenticity determinants (genuine, consistent, original, traditional and authoritative) on authenticity evaluation of luxury/non-luxury brands. In non-luxury brands, only 'genuine' and 'consistent' have significant effects that are similar to the results of the general perception on brand authenticity. However, only 'consistent' and 'authoritative' have significant effects for luxury brands and are different from the general perception.

Objectives: This study examined the statistical relevance of whether the systemic predisposing factors affect the prognosis of surgical treatment of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ). All cases had undergone bone biopsies to determine the characteristics of the mechanisms of BRONJ by optical microscopy. Materials and Methods: The data included 54 BRONJ cases who underwent surgery and in whom bone biopsies were performed. The results of surgery were evaluated and the results were classified into 3 categories: normal recovery, delayed recovery, and recurrence after surgery. The medical history, such as diabetes mellitus, medication of steroids, malignancies on other sites was investigated for an evaluation of the systemic predisposing factors in relation to the prognosis. The three factors involved with the medication of bisphosphonate (BP) were the medication route, medication period, and drug holiday of BP before surgery. The serum C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide (CTX) value and presence of microorganism colony in bone biopsy specimens were also checked. Statistical analysis was then carried out to determine the relationship between these factors and the results of surgery. Results: The group of patients suffering from diabetes and on steroids tended to show poorer results after surgery. Parenteral medication of BP made the patients have a poorer prognosis after surgery than oral medication. In contrast, the medication period and drug holiday of BP before surgery did not have significance with the results of surgery nor did the serum CTX value and presence of microorganism colony. Necrotic bone specimens in this study typically showed disappearing new bone formation around the osteocytic lacunae and destroyed Howship's lacunae. Conclusion: Although many variables exist, this study could in part, predict the prognosis of surgical treatment of BRONJ by taking the patient's medical history.

The importance of performance management has been on the rise, which led to public sectors utilizing BSC performance management system as a tool for adaptability, effectiveness, efficiency, and reorganizational abilities by the public sectors. However, due to lack of fairness of evaluation of performance management, it is difficult to expect high level of acceptance by organizations. Therefore, the purpose of the research is to analyze the acceptance of performance management system by organizations via stabilizing the system within the organization group. The research will utilize BSC performance management system of private sectors to introduce the system to public sectors to show the correlation between fairness of performance management and acceptance of performance management. Theoretical background for correlation between fairness of performance management and acceptance of performance management was created through reviews of documents and theories focusing on performance management. The methodology of the research was shaped through surveying members of organizations of public sectors. To analyze the findings of the data SPSS was exploited to find the statistics regarding frequency, degree of reliability, relevance, and recurrence. To summarize the research findings, the perception of performance management by organization members of public sectors shows positive correlation between fairness and acceptance of performance management, also acceptance of performance management shows positive correlation regards to organization performance. In spite of the findings of the research, the fairness and distribution of performance management was not great. Limitation occurred due to lack of perception and knowledge of performance management of respondents of the survey.

This study was performed to examine how intrinsic acceptance for happenstance(IAH) affects evaluation of the means to achieve additional goals when the additional goals are happened to be added to the original means-goal link. Specifically, participants were asked to evaluate the effectiveness of means(e.g., exercise and saving) to achieve additional goals which are either more or less relevant to the means. The result showed that participants with high IAH were more likely to think that the original means is effective to accomplish additional goals than those with low IAH. This pattern, however, was found only when the additional goals are relevant to the means. When the relevance of the additional goals to the means was low, there was no difference in evaluation of the effectiveness of the means to achieve additional goals between participants with high and low IAH. Future research and implications of this study for goal-systems theory and intrinsic acceptance for happenstance were discussed.

Recent changes in educational paradigms that emphasize the performance or outcomes of education are redefining how learning objectives are being described as 'learning outcomes' in various academic disciplines. Medical education is not an exception to this trend. However, it has come to our attention that the key concepts and appropriate descriptions of learning outcomes have not been well understood among educators and that this lack of understanding has hindered our efforts to implement the practice in the field. This study aims to provide a direction to establish and describe learning outcomes by examining previous studies that have focused on setting learning objectives as well as learning outcomes. Setting and describing learning outcomes starts from reflection on the approach of behavioral learning objectives, which overemphasizes learner's acquired knowledge, skills, and attitude in each classroom rather than actual performance. On the other hand, the learning outcome approach focuses on what the learner is able to do as a result of a learning experience. This approach is more learner-friendly and encourages students to lead and be responsible for their learning process. Learning outcomes can best be described when the relevance of actual contexts and the hierarchy of learning objectives are considered. In addition, they should be in the form of context, task, performance, and level, as well as be planned with proper assessment and feedback procedures. When these conditions are met, the learning outcome approach is beneficial to students as it presents a curriculum that is more open to learners. Despite these advantages of the learning outcome approach, there is a possible concern that setting the learning outcomes and describing them can restrict evaluation to lower cognitive skills if the concept of learning outcome is narrowly interpreted or is set too low. To avoid such narrow applications, it is important for educators to understand the comprehensiveness of the learning outcome setting and to consider long-term outcomes embedded in an organizational vision rather than only short-term behavioral outcomes.

The purpose of this study is to assess residents' perception of the revitalization projects of the rural center and to evaluate their views of the projects' importance and their levels of satisfaction with how they have been carried out. In this study, we measured the residents' perceptions and preferences regarding these projects by using Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA). Results showed that residents' perceptions and satisfaction were the highest for the projects providing welfare facilities, even though this project has little relevance to the overall project goal. Residents were dissatisfied with construction projects such as the building of cultural facilities and urban parks, even while recognizing their importance. It is necessary to establish what problem the people perceive and to manage them appropriately. Next, the residents did not appreciate the community empowerment projects, nor did they evaluate the contents of the program positively. It can therefore be seen that the community empowerment projects have not been carried out well. Finally, the street landscape improvement project was not successfully implemented compared to other projects. The residents have negatively perceived the installation of facilities that they do not want, rarely use, or are poorly operated. this shows that the evaluation of residents is significant. They become the users of the revitalization project for the rural center. It is necessary to overcome problems such as project items chosen by professionals without local consultation and obvious design in the revitalization project of the local center. There is a need to ascertain the residents' opinion of each project and to encourage them to participate directly in the management operation.
