We have named the sea surrounded by the Korean Peninsula, Primorye of Russia, and Japanese Islands as the East Sea. Historically this region has been variously named the East Sea, Chosun Sea, and, more recently, Japan Sea and Sea of Japan. Since the scientific research papers can play important roles on the naming the sea, the status of naming the East Sea in international scientific journals was investigated. Among 472 papers in 46 international journals that we assessed, Japan Sea (or Sea of Japan) was used in 322 papers (68.2%), East Sea was used in 21 papers (4.4%), and parallel usage of East Sea and Japan Sea accounted for 27.3% (129 papers). In all scientific papers before the early 1980s, East Sea was not used. Since the first parallel usage of East Sea and Japan Sea in 1985, these designations has been increasingly used. After 2004, the parallel usage has replaced the single designation of Japan Sea.

The criteria of operating anchorage and the unit of anchorage capacity have not been unified and the different terms have been used in same matters in each regulations related to the anchorages provided in major domestic ports. The competent authorities and vessels which are going to use anchorages are confused due to those situations. This paper suggests the schemes to unify criteria of operating anchorage, the unit of anchorage capacity and terms used in same matters through reviewing the anchorage operating regulations provided in major domestic ports. In addition, this paper suggests that the principles of anchorage naming, the unit of anchorage capacity and the number of vessels that can be accommodated should be established at the next revision of regulations through reviewing the status of anchorages in major foreign ports to minimize the confusion on operating anchorages.

The cumulative registration status of dogs is from 1.07 million in 2016 to 2.32 million in 2020. Animal registration is increasing by more than 10% every year, and accordingly, a name must be decided when registering a dog. We want to give a name that fits the characteristics of a dog's appearance, but there are many difficulties in naming it. This paper explains the development of a system for recognizing dog images and recommends dog names based on similar objects or food. This system extracts similarities with dogs' images through models that learn images of various objects and foods, and recommends dog names based on similarities. In addition, by recommending additional related words based on the image data of the result value, it was possible to provide users with various options, increase convenience, and increase interest and fun. Through this system, it is expected that users will be able to solve their concerns about naming their dogs, check names that suit their dogs comfortably, and give them various options through various recommended names to increase satisfaction.

Current brand strategies applied for name brand apartments seem to have no product differentiation but merely function as a convenient instrument for product image change through naming only. Since proliferating brand names don't have much relevance to their brand concepts at present, long-range brand strategies are definitely needed. We'll inquire, first, the success and failure cases in the brand strategies of other industry. Next, through questionnaire survey, we'll look into the brand concepts of construction firms and their customer satisfaction. Finally we'll present the necessity of indigenous brand culture by use of macroscopic contents development.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Reality Orientation Therapy and Spaced Retrieval Therapy of the applied of CERAD-K type cognitive rehabilitation program for mild Alzheimer's patients. The tool used to this study was CERAD-K neuropsychological test consists of Boston Naming, a simple mental status, the word list recall, and configure behavior. A non-equivalent control group pretest-posttest design was used. The participants were 85 mild Alzheimer's patients (experimental group: 32, control group: 53) who registered G Health Center, in Gyeonggi province. Those Data were collected from 10:00 to 11:00, 14:00 to 15:00, twice a week on Tuesday and Friday, 8 session, from September 1 to September 30, 2014. Control group was participated daily routine program only in the G public health center.The data were analyzed using SPSS WIN 21.0 program. The results of this study were as follows;Boston Naming(F=3.22, p<.001), simple mental status(F=5.92, p<.001), and configure behavior(F=4.67, p<.001) were accepted, but word list recall(F=.75 p>.05) was not accepted. The study findings indicate that the Reality Orientation Therapy and Spaced Retrieval Therapy of the applied of CERAD-K type cognitive rehabilitation program is effective and can be recommended as intervention for mild Alzheimer's patients.

Purpose : This study examines the relationship between the Mini Mental State Examination-Korean Version(MMSE-K) and the Neuro-behavioral Cognitive Status Examination(NCSE) in Stroke Patients. Methods : We studied sixteen people with stroke(7 males, 9 females) who were admitted to occupational therapy a participants were tested with the MMSE-K, the NCSE. Results : Correlation between the NCSE and the MMSE-K was significant in p<.05, p<.01. The result was orientation r=.652, memory r=.514, attention r=.417, calculation r=.839, comprehension r=.676, repetition r=.960, naming r=.683, construction r=.961, judgement r=.616. Conclusion : The MMSE-K and the NCSE are valid and useful measurement tools evaluating cognitive function of persons with stroke in Korea.

This study investigated a mechanism of naming a disease, as examining how obesity attain a status of disease. WHO(World Health Organization) warned 'The obesity is definitely a disease to need medical treatment' in 1996 and 1997. However, before then, obesity was classified as unusual or nonstandard body status but it was not categorized as a disease. In order to examine a mechanism how obesity attain the status of disease, this study examined the historical process of construction to obesity in discourse of disease and ontological reality of pathological epidemiological to obesity. As a result of this research, it was found that the medical community manipulated BMI(Body Mass Index) and deliberately narrowed the range of person's normal weight, and institutionalized sizism. Especially, it was found that as the medical community associated the body state of obesity with high blood pressure, diabetes, and etc that causes burden of medical expenses to patients, that was fatphobia. And it tried to from a medical control mechanism to assign obesity to an independent status of a disease. Based on this examination, this study found an entailment: the noninfectious disease such as obesity attains the status of disease not because of the pathologic reason but because of cultural or socio-economical reason which han nothing to do with any medical source.

Background and Purpose: Facial emotion recognition deficits impact the daily life, particularly of Alzheimer's disease patients. We aimed to assess these deficits in the following three groups: subjective cognitive decline (SCD), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and mild Alzheimer's dementia (AD). Additionally, we explored the associations between facial emotion recognition and cognitive performance. Methods: We used the Korean version of the Florida Facial Affect Battery (K-FAB) in 72 SCD, 76 MCI, and 76 mild AD subjects. The comparison was conducted using the analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), with adjustments being made for age and sex. The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) was utilized to gauge the overall cognitive status, while the Seoul Neuropsychological Screening Battery (SNSB) was employed to evaluate the performance in the following five cognitive domains: attention, language, visuospatial abilities, memory, and frontal executive functions. Results: The ANCOVA results showed significant differences in K-FAB subtests 3, 4, and 5 (p=0.001, p=0.003, and p=0.004, respectively), especially for anger and fearful emotions. Recognition of 'anger' in the FAB subtest 5 declined from SCD to MCI to mild AD. Correlations were observed with age and education, and after controlling for these factors, MMSE and frontal executive function were associated with FAB tests, particularly in the FAB subtest 5 (r=0.507, p<0.001 and r=-0.288, p=0.026, respectively). Conclusions: Emotion recognition deficits worsened from SCD to MCI to mild AD, especially for negative emotions. Complex tasks, such as matching, selection, and naming, showed greater deficits, with a connection to cognitive impairment, especially frontal executive dysfunction.

This study examined how the meaning of news stories covering the split of national opinion was constructed in the media to represent social conflicts. To clarify the function of the term 'split of national opinion' as an ultimate term, this study examined the meaning of the term in the context of both text and society. Ten newspapers were included in the content analysis. The frequency of words used for the purpose of metaphor and equivalent in describing the split of national opinion was calculated to determine their meaning in the textual context. The frequency of incidents and subjects involved in allegedly causing the split of national opinion was calculated to determine their meaning in the social context. The results of this study are summarized as follows: First, the term 'split of national opinion' was coined by the newspapers as a metaphor of disease, disaster, and cost. The attitudes or the ways in which the split of national opinion was dealt with were generally negative and passive. Second, the term 'split of national opinion' was dealt with an equivalent status of such terms as national policy, national loss, societal problems, and ideology. Third, each newspaper reported that the split of national opinion had been caused by certain subjects, which indicates that each newspaper had its own position of viewing who was the key player in splitting the national opinion. The implication was also discussed that the use of the ultimate term would incur the unbalance of power between participants and the existing players, which would make individuals or groups who were involved in the social actions excluded and make the newspapers exercise the rhetorical power as news media.
