  • The e-learning industry status survey statistic provides information about the actual conditions of supply and demand of the e-learning industries. NIPA (National IT Industry Promotion Agency) has published the annual report of the survey results since 2004. Due to the 9th version of the KSIC (Korean standard industrial classification) revised in 2008, a refinement of the sampling design for the survey becomes necessary, especially that for the business demand sector. This article, based on the 9th revision of the KSIC, constructs a stratification of the target population used for the e-learning industry status survey on the business demand sector. Classification of strata in the business population is based on the industrial type and employment scale of business. Under the stratified population, we design a sampling scheme by using the power allocation method that enables us to satisfy a target coefficient of variation of each industrial stratum. In order to secure an accurate survey results based on the proposed sampling design, we consider the problem of calculating the design weights, derivation of parameter estimators, and formulas of their standard errors.

  • A stratified sampling method is generally used with a sample selected using the same sample weight in each stratum in order to improve the accuracy of the sampling survey estimation. However, the weight should be adjusted to reflect the response rate if the response rate is affected by the value of the variable of interest. It may be also more effective to adjust the weights by subdividing the stratum rather than using the same weight if the variable of interest has a linear relationship with the continuous auxiliary variables. In this study, we propose a method to increase the accuracy of estimation using an informative sampling design technique when the response rate is an exponential function of the variable of interest and the variable of interest has a linear relationship with the auxiliary variable. Simulation results show the superiority of the proposed method.

  • Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality of the Second Korean Working Conditions Survey (KWCS), focusing on its validity and reliability. Methods: The external validity was evaluated by the assessment of sampling procedures and the response rate, in order to investigate the representativeness of the sample. The content validity was evaluated by the assessment of the development of the questionnaire, and the consistency of questions for the selected construct. The test-retest method was used to evaluate the reliability by means of a phone call survey of 30% of the respondents, who were randomly selected. The respondents' satisfaction regarding the survey procedures and interview time were analyzed to evaluate the quality of survey data. Results: The external validity was assured by an acceptable sampling procedure, rigid multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling. The content validity was also guaranteed by a reasonable procedure for the development of the questionnaire with a pretest. The internal consistency of the questions for work autonomy was maintained, with 0.738 of Cronbach's alpha. The response rate of 36% was lower than that of the European Working Conditions Survey (EWCS), with a contact rate of 66%, compared to 76% for the EWCS. The matching rates of the five retested questions were more than 98% reliable. Conclusion: The quality of the second KWCS was assured by the high external and content validity and reliability. The rigid sampling procedure and development of the questionnaire contributed to quality assurance. The high level of reliability may be guaranteed by the sophisticated field survey procedures and the development of a technical manual for interviewers. The technical strategies for a high response rate should be developed for future surveys.

  • Workplace Panel Survey(WPS) is the representative panel survey of workplace in Korea. WPS was newly sampled in 2005 and is to be used for the subsequent biennial survey. The main survey is divided into a questionnaire for human resources(HR) manager, a questionnaire for labor relations manager and a questionnaire for representatives of unions. The population of WPS 2005 included workplaces across the country with 30 or more employees. The WPS 2005 was composed of 1,905 workplaces including 290 workplaces in the public sector. The sample was selected by the stratified random sampling. Weighting process for the survey data was introduced to compensate for differential sampling and non-response rates. Personal interviews were conducted using the Computer Assisted Personal Interviewing(CAPI) system during visits by interviewers, along with survey via mail and e-mail concerning employment and financial issues. The CPAI system introduced for the WPS 2005 can by used for automatical detection for errors and inconsistencies which may occur during the survey process. The CAPI system played an important part in enhancing the reliability of the survey data.

  • The purpose of this study was to study the Relationships between Sport for All Participation and Physical and Mental Function affecting the Elderly's Self-perceived Health. For accomplishing this purpose of this study, the 308 subjects were selected by the multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method from the Seoul, in the years of 2008. presently. Out of the 360 questionnaires responded to, only 308 were used for data analysis because 52 were responded to incompletely or incorrectly. The survey questionaries were used to collect data. The questionary for physical function state were developed and standardized by kung-hee chung(1993), yang-lae Kim(2005). And mental function state were divided two parts; self-perceived scale and depress scale. The questionary for self-perceived scale were based on MMSE-K(Mini Mental State Examination-Korea). The questionary for Depression were based on Depression Scale developed by Beck(1978), adapted in Korean and standardization by Lee Young-ho & Song Jong-yong(1991), regulated by Jo Gyu-whang(2004). From the analysis of this study, the following conclusions were obtained: First, according to the elderly people's participation in leisure sport activities, it partially affected physical and mental function state. Second, according to the degree of elderly people's participation in leisure sport activities, it partially affected physical and mental function state.

  • Concept of the comfort and fitness becomes a major concern in the basic function of the ready-made clothes. Accordingly a more sophiscated classification of the human morphological characteristics is strongly required for the effective clothing construction. This research was performed to classify and characterize Korean adult males anthropometrically. Sample size was 1290 subjects and their age range was from 19 to 54 years old. Sampling was carried out by the stratified sampling method. Data were collected by the direct anthropometric measurement. 75 variables in total were applied to classify the bodytypes. Data were analyzed by the multivariate method, especially factor and cluster analysis. The high factor loading items extracted by factor analysis were based to determine the variables of the cluster analysis for the similar bodytypes respectively. In the part of the trunk, 19 variables from the data were applied to classify the bodytypes of trunk by Ward's minimum variance method. The groups forming a cluster were subdivided into 5 sets by cross-tabulation extracted by the hierarchical culster analysis. Type 3 and 4 in trunk were composed of the majority of 55.6% of the subjects. The Korean adult males had relatively well-balanced bodytypes in trunk.

  • The study investigates the relationship and influence between religiosity, reward, and engagement in the public administration sector, both directly and causally via moderation. This study involved one hundred and twenty-three respondents in three local government organizations in Malang City, East Java Province, Indonesia, namely, the Malang City General Hospital, the Population and Civil Registry Office, and the Investment Office. The sampling method uses stratified random sampling from the total population of civil servants in Malang in the three institutions. The data analysis model of this study uses a quantitative approach with a unit of data analysis using the path analysis method. The analytical tools used are smart-PLS and SPSS. The results reveal that the direct combined effect of reward and religiosity has a positive and significant influence on the engagement. However, moderation between reward and commitment, which is bridged by religiosity, does not show positive and significant results. The non-positive relationship shown by testing moderation concludes that there is a separation of purpose between the portion of religiosity in the world of work, where religiosity in this study is only described as part of the concept of worship, and the relationship between the person and his God.

  • In this paper, we discuss two fundamental issues of hybrid scene representation: constructing and rendering. A hybrid scene consists of triangular meshes and point-set models. Consider the maturity of modeling techniques of triangular meshes, we suggest that generate a point-set model from a triangular mesh might be an easier and more economical way. We improve stratified sampling by introducing the concept of priority. Our method has the flexibility that one may easily change the importance criteria by substituting priority functions. While many works were devoted to blend rendering results of point and triangle, our work tries to render point-set models and triangular meshes as individuals. We propose a novel way to eliminate depth occlusion artifacts and to texture a point-set model. Finally, we implement our rendering algorithm with the new features of the shader model 4.0 and turns out to be easily integrated with existing rendering techniques for triangular meshes.
