This article examines the distributional characteristics of the return of Chinese stock market indices. The majority of previous empirical researches have tended to focus upon the simple stock market index. However, this study focuses on the four indices which represent the characteristics of each stock market index. The empirical findings indicate that the returns of the four chinese indices are not normally distributed at conventional levels. The Ljimg-Box -statistics indicate the returns of the index of A shares are not serially autocorrelated. However, the returns of the index of B shares are serially autocorrelated. The empirical findings also indicate returns of the four chinese indices are not serially autocorrelated. The statistics of Regression Specification Error Test and ARCH indicate the returns of all four indices are not serially linear. The findings also indicate that E- GARCH model is the most fittest model for the returns of the four chinese indices and the forecast error can be reduced by using student t distribution rather normal distribution.

This paper measures and analyzes the performance of insurance companies in Korea in respect to sustainable development and suggest strategic implications based on the analysis. The correlation, regression, ANOVA, and t-test are employed. The results of this study are summarized as follows. First, it shows tat social index is important in the life insurance industry; however, the environmental index, is important in the non-life insurance industry. Second, the result gained by regressing the size and financial soundness on the performance of sustainable development demonstrates that the size variable is statistically significant. It suggests that size is a necessary condition for sustainable development. Finally, ANOVA shows that the small and medium sized companies have a significantly poor performance compared to the large companies concerning the social index and reputation index in the life insurance industry. The small and medium sized companies in the non-life insurance industry exhibit a significantly poor performance compared to the large companies in respect to all the indexes, except for the social index. Therefore, the small and medium sized companies make every endeavor in the poor indexes to improve performance.

Falls are one of the most serious problem that threatens the health of the elderly. This study was conducted twice a week for six weeks from May to June 2014 to evaluate the effectiveness of fall prevention exercises for rural seniors. This study analyzed the effects by comparing before and after exercise on the TUG, FRT, BBS, ADL, fear of falls, fall efficacy, and depression. The results of this study was as follows: Hypothesis1, "a TUG of post-test will improve more than the pre-test", was supported. Hypothesis3, "BBS of the post-test would improve more than the pre-test" was supported. In addition, the FRT, ADL, fear of fall, fall efficacy, and depression of post-test would improve more than the pre-test. Accordingly this study showed that fall prevention exercises are effective in improving the physical function (TUG, FRT, BBS, and ADL) and emotional function (fear of fall, fall efficacy, and depression) in rural seniors.

The health status of workers in a foundry was analyzed in a study which consisted of evaluations of respiratory health together with environmental measurements. The results from environmental measurements showed values exceeding permissible exposure limits. A t-test was done with log transformed and untransformed data to examine the statistical significance for the noncompliance with exposure standards. For the analysis of categorical health outcomes, $\chi$-square test with 2 $\times$ 2 tables and logistic regression analysis were employed. For continuous variables, multiple linear regression was done against assessed risk factors. Pros and cons of different parameters in the compliance (or noncompliance) testing were presented. Respiratory function did not show any relation with occupational exposures, which may be due to the healthy worker effects. Strategies for controlling time dependent covariates were discussed in relation to the healthy worker effect. The scope of statistical analysis in occupational health studies is still limited in Korea without a suitable external comparison group such as credible vital statistics for the whole nation. Internal comparisons between different exposure status often result in unstable estimates of effect, and proportional morbidity study is discussed as an alternative potential research tool.

The purpose of this study, which was conducted as a part of investigations for vitalizing the School Sheriff system proposed as a means to prevent school violence and promote school safety, was to survey recognition of elementary school parents toward the School Sheriff system and present an improvement scheme for the system. For the study, we selected as the research object a set of parents whose children attended schools with School Sheriffs and then sampled 200 parents out of them with cluster random sampling, before analyzing 189 finally. Validity of the questionnaire is verified by expert council and factorial analysis, and reliability by reliability analysis. Statistical means including chi-square test, t-test and F-test are used. The result of the study as follows : First, necessity of the School Sheriff system varies by individual characteristics. Second, recognition toward the system itself varies by individual characteristics. Third, recognition toward the role that should be played by School Sheriffs varies by individual characteristics. Fourth, there is a difference in perceiving the role and activity of School Sheriffs, Fifth, whether the system helped improving school safety varies by individual characteristics. Sixth, the satisfaction from the School Sheriffs.

This study aims to investigate the relationship among public service motivation, hospital organizational culture type, job-esteem, and turnover intention of public hospital nurses. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 124 nurses at four public hospitals in the Gyeonggi Province (Icheon, Anseong, Suwon, Paju). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-tests, ANOVA, and Pearson correlation coefficient. Mann-Whitney U test and the Kruskal-Wallis test were used with the Bonferroni test for post hoc comparison when the data were not normally distributed. The turnover intention of the subjects was public service motivation (r=-.30, p<.001), affiliative culture (r=-.28, p=.002), innovative culture (r=-.34, p< .001) and task culture (r=-.30, p=.001) were negatively correlated. Study findings suggest that public service motivation must be increased to reduce the turnover intention of nurses in public hospitals.

In this study, For assessment of triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury, we acquired images by fat suppressed 3D fast spoiled gradient recalled T1 and fat suppressed Isotropic 3D fast spin echo T1 techniques. For quantitative evaluation, measured signal to noise ratio and contrast to noise ratio and verified statistical significance between two imaging techniques by Mann-Whitney U verification. And for qualitative evaluation, marked 4-grade scoring (0: non diagnostic, 1: poor, 2: adequate, 3: good) on shape of TFCC, artifacts by partial volumes, description of the lesions by two radiologist, verified coincidence between 2 observer using Kappa-value verification. We used 3.0 Tesla MR equipment and 8-channel RF coil for imaging acquisition. As quantitative evaluation results, signal to noise ratio and contrast to noise ratio value of Isotropic 3D fast spin echo T1 technique is higher in every image sections, also between two imaging techniques by Mann-Whitney U verification was statistically significant (p < 0.05). As qualitative results, observer 1, 2 marked a higher grade on Isotropic 3D FSE T1 technique, coincidence verification of evaluation results between two observers by Kappa-value verification was statistically significant (p < 0.05). As a result, during MRI examination on TFCC injury, fat suppressed Isotropic 3D fast spin echo T1 technique is considered offering more useful information about abnormal lesion of TFCC.
