The feasibility of incorporating purple sweet potato concentrate (PSPC) as a value-added food ingredient in convenient food products, using a model system of jelly, was investigated. The pH and soluble solids content gradually increased with the increasing levels of PSPC added (p<0.05). The moisture content ranged from 82.03-83.82%. Lightness decreased, whereas redness and yellowness increased significantly with the higher amount of PSPC in the formulation (p<0.05). Turbidity and hardness also increased significantly (p<0.05). Total polyphenol content and DPPH radical scavenging activity increased significantly with the addition of PSPC (p<0.05). The consumer acceptance test indicated that the addition of PSPC had a favorable effect on consumer acceptances in all attributes. The jelly with 2% PSPC is recommended (with respect to the overall acceptance score) for taking advantage of the functional properties of PSPC without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

The effect of baking on the physicochemical and sensory properties was investigated using a model system of sponge cakes incorporated with pine leaf powder (PLP) as a value-added food ingredient. PLP was incorporated into cake batter at 5 levels (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8%, w/w) by adding an equivalent amount based on the weight of wheat flour. After appropriate mixing, sponge cakes were baked at $170^{\circ}C$ for 30 min in an oven. The baked cakes were cooled to room temperature for 1 h prior to all measurements. The pH, moisture content, specific volume, height, volume index, and symmetry index decreased significantly with the increase in PLP content (p<0.05). On the contrary, specific gravity of the batter and baking loss increased (p<0.05). The lightness of the cakes decreased, whereas redness increased significantly with the higher amount of PLP in the formulation (p<0.05). Hardness also increased significantly (p<0.05). Both total polyphenol content and DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl) radical scavenging activity increased significantly by the addition of PLP (p<0.05). The consumer acceptance test indicated that the addition of PLP up to 4% did not cause a significant unfavorable effect on the consumer acceptances in all attributes. The sponge cakes with 2-4% PLP would be recommended with respect to the overall acceptance score while taking advantage of the functional properties of PLP without sacrificing the consumer acceptability.

This study analyzes determinants of strategic marketing alliances' performance using 'continuous use intention' of consumers in the Korean credit card industry. Specifically, this study aims to provide comprehensive and synthetic understanding of these factors divided into firm- level and consumer- level variables. Thirty alliance cards were chosen randomly. For firm- level data, managers from the thirty selected cards were interviewed concerning their respective firm and alliance operation. For collection of consumer- level data, 610 card holders from these thirty cards were surveyed concerning card benefits, benefits information, brand image, and continuous use intention. The hierarchical linear model (HLM) was employed to analyze this multi-level data, yielding the following results: First, consumers identified three factors that positively influence continuous use intention. Second, with respect to firmlevel factors, alliance partner's marketing capability is not positively related to intention, whereas fit of alliance goal influences consumer's continuous use of card. Third, contrary to expectation, the positive interaction effects between consumer level variables and firm level variables were found to be not present.

Purpose - There have been local government systems since June 1955. Many local governments have made use of festivals for regional public relations and the achievement of competitiveness. This study analyzes effective components of local festivals. There has been extensive research in relation to variables such as participation motivation, satisfaction level, recall intention, royalty, and recommend purpose. However, as a variable factor, attachment to the participation motivation of a festival has been overlooked along with support level to a festival. This study has added new variables named "attachment to local society" and "support level," which are dependent variables. We will study the relationship of these two variables. Research design, data, and methodology - This study has devised a cause-and-effect relationship model, which deduces that local residents' participation motivation for the festival will have positive influence on the festival support level and satisfaction level. We circulated questionnaires to local residents to get the data required to prove the hypothesis. To analysis the data, we used SPSS 21.0, and accomplished basic analysis through the analysis of frequency as well as descriptive statistical analysis. Further, we verified our measurement tools through reliability analysis, and examined the research hypothesis through multiple regression analysis. Results - With regard to the festival satisfaction level, the variables of local society attachment, festival attraction, escaping from the daily life, and family harmony have influence upon a positive effect (+) in this order. Among them, the variable of local society attachment has the greatest influence. However, in respect of support level for the festival, only the variables of local society attachment and escaping from the daily life have a valid influence on the positive effect (+), and local society attachment has relatively greater influence. In addition, not only does the festival satisfaction level affect the support level for the festival in terms of positive effect, the influence is also far-reaching, which verifies the mediating effect. Conclusions - The result shows that the local residents' satisfaction level with the Yudalsan Mountain Spring Flower Festival is comparatively high, which is due to the local society attachment. It also shows that it is difficult to create support without local residents' attachment with their area. Consequently, this study insists that the Yudalsan Mountain Spring Flower Festival should exceed its limitation as just a village-level party, in order to become a remarkable and outstanding festival, and suggests three operational implications: macro-environmental development, task environment development, and internal operational environmental development. From the macro-environmental perspective, the constant development of local culture and local business is proposed. In the task environment perspective, a new functional development for the festival is proposed. From the internal operational environmental perspective, improvements in festival operation methods are proposed. If these weak points are addressed and resolved through a more detailed approach, it will be very helpful for local government systems to operate the festival.

Recently, domain-specific demands with respect to practical applications and analysis scheme using spatial thematic information are increasing. Accordingly, in this study, GIS-based application program is implemented to perform spatial analysis in transportation geography with base road layer data. Using this program, quantitative estimation of circuity and accessibility, which can be extracted from nodes composed of the graph-typed network structure, in a arbitrary analysis zone or administrative boundary zone is possible. Circuity is a concept to represent the difference extent between actual nodes and fully connected nodes in the analysis zone. While, accessibility can be used to find out extent of accessibility or connectivity between all nodes contained in the analysis zone, judging from inter-connecting status of the whole nodes. In put data of this program, which was implemented in AVX executable extension using AvenueTM of ArcView, is not transportation database information based on transportation data model, but layer data, directly obtaining from digital map sets. It is thought that computation of circuity and accessibility can be used as kinds of spatial analysis functions for GIS applications in the transportation field.

This research aimed at investigating Kim Gyoshin's recognition on Korean traditional ideology and harmony of Christian idea and traditional idea through the writing and diary in "Bible Joseon". Kim Gyoshin expressed positive interest in Korean traditional idea and traditional religion, and intended to localize Christian belief through communicating with them. He expressed infinite respect for national cultural asset of Buddhism, intending to research Korean Buddhism. He paid utmost attention to Confucianism among traditional ideas. He had a strong affection for learning(好學), benevolence(仁義), conscience(良心) of Confucianism as patriotic character. He calmly practiced caution and solitary(愼獨) of sincere(誠), solemnity(敬) of Confucianism through his life, however he chose Christian belief by accepting atonement belief realizing human sinful nature fundamentally inherent in human being. He personally respected Confucius and lived after the model of him, however he searched the spirit of life to renew the people from Christianity. Academically, he respected Confucius, and believed in Jesus in religion. He highly evaluated the attitude of patriot(志士), which highly regarded the academic attitude of learning(好學) and benevolence(仁義), in this regard, criticized blind and non-intellectual belief. He had an open attitude toward Korean traditional idea with no prejudice. As human individuals have their own inherent moral value, he viewed that each people would have their inherent ethnicity and mission. He considered that Korean Peninsula where contradiction and yoke of the world history are inherent is the center of East Asia that would purify injustice of the world. He viewed that Korean people had owned their original good heart[仁] even before Buddhism and Confucianism had been transmitted to the country. He determined that Korean people were good people, who received goodness from the heaven. However, while Uchimura created Japanese style Christianity by adapting Japanese knighthood to Christian idea, Kim Gyoshin lacked sharp critical mind regarding how to establish Korean style Christianity by adapting which of Korean traditional idea to Christian idea.

An algorithm was developed to estimate stability indices (SI) over the Korean peninsula using Terra Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) infrared brightness temperatures (TBs). The SI is defined as the stability of the atmosphere in the hydrostatic equilibrium with respect to the vertical displacements and is used as an index for the potential severe storm development. Using atmosphere temperature and moisture profiles from Regional Data Assimilation and Prediction System (RDAPS) as initial guess data for a nonlinear physical relaxation method, K index (KI), KO Index (KO), lifted index (LI), and maximum buoyancy (MB) were estimated. A fast radiative transfer model, RTTOV-7, is utilized for reducing the computational burden related to the physical relaxation method. The estimated TBs from the radiative transfer simulation are in good agreement with observed MODIS TBs. To test usefulness for the short-term forecast of severe storms, the algorithm is applied to the rapidly developed convective storms. Compared with the SIs from the RDAPS forecasts and NASA products, the MODIS SI obtained in this research predicts the instability better over the pre-convection areas. Thus, it is expected that the nowcasting and short-term forecast can be improved by utilizing the algorithms developed in this study.

Purpose: To analyze the ridge profile of the anterior maxilla using cone-beam computed tomography and to assess the clinical significance of the ridge profile by performing virtual implant placement. Methods: Thirty-two cone-beam computed tomography scans of anterior maxillae were included. For each tooth, a vertical line was made along the longitudinal axis, and 3 horizontal lines at 1-, 3-, and 5-mm levels below the labial bone crest were drawn perpendicularly to the vertical reference. At these levels, the thickness of the alveolar ridge (RT), and the labial (LT) and palatal bone plate (PT) were measured. Then, virtual implant placement using standard and tapered implants was performed. A generalized linear mixed model was used for statistical analysis. Results: The teeth were located labially based on the proportion of LT and PT with respect to RT. At the 1-mm level, the value of LT was between $1.0{\pm}0.4mm$ for central incisors and $1.3{\pm}0.6mm$ for canines. A large number of teeth had area(s) with less than 1-mm-thick labial bone between the 1- and 5-mm levels below the crest. The mean PT was generally thicker than the LT in all tooth types. The greatest mean value of labial concavity was observed for canines, compared to other tooth types. Men had a greater RT than did women, but had a comparable LT. Less apical fenestration was observed when tapered implants were used. Conclusions: Most teeth in the anterior maxilla had a thin labial bone plate, with no significant difference between sexes. Tapered implants may be advantageous for the anterior maxilla.

The purpose of this study is to classify national ships into passenger ships, cargo ships, oil tankers, tugboats, barges, and other ships by use, and compare the rate of change and direction respectively. In this study, a total of 123 monthly data were searched from January 2011 to March 2021 in Statistics Korea's KOSIS "Traffic Logistics => Operating Vessel Statistics => Possesion State of National Vessels". To this end, we calculated the rate of change from the previous month for each ship and performed numerical analysis and model analysis. In the correlation analysis, the Total showed a high relationship in the order of Towing, Barge, Oil, Cargo and Ferry. In the regression analysis, each ship was found to be statistically significant and varied independently of each other. The increase rate was highest in the order of Ferry, Oil, Towing, Barge and Cargo during the last analysis period. In the analysis of Scatter Charts, Towing and Barge showed more than a certain level of synchronization with respect to the Total. The synchronization phenomenon for each ships was calculated to be rather low, indicating that the correlation between each ships was low. However, the correlation between Oil and Towing, Oil and Barge and Towing and Barge is relatively high, indicating a relatively large correlation.

The baking performance of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder as a value-added food ingredient was investigated in a model system of sponge cakes. Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder was incorporated into cake batter at 5 levels (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%, w/w) by adding equivalent amount based on total weight of wheat flour. The specific volume, height, moisture content, volume index, and symmetry index of sponge cakes decreased significantly with the increase in Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder content (p < 0.05). Sponge cakes became darker and firmer with increase in Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder content (p < 0.05), as indicated by decrease in the $L^*$ and increase in the firmness measured by the texture measuring instrument. Total polyphenol content also increased gradually as the Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder content increased. Finally, the consumer acceptance test indicated that addition of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder up to 10% in the formulation of sponge cakes did not significantly influence the consumers' acceptability with respect to taste and flavor. In addition, the overall acceptability was not different from each other for control and 5% sample (p > 0.05).
