본 연구는 주거환경과 행복의 관계를 살펴보고, 주거환경과 행복의 영향 관계에서 가구소득의 매개효과가 있는지를 분석하였다. 이를 위해 국회미래연구원의 ‘2023년 한국행복조사(3차 조사)’에 응답한 전국 일반 국민 15세 이상 16,305명을 대상으로 SPSS 25.0과 Process Macro 4.1를 사용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 첫째, 주거환경에 대한 긍정적 인식 수준이 높을수록 행복이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 가구소득 이 높을수록 행복이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 주거환경과 행복의 관 계에서 가구소득이 부분 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 행복을 높이기 위해서는 주거환경을 개선하고 가구소득을 증대 또는 안정을 위한 공공정책의 방향성과 정책적 함의를 제시하였다.

본 연구는 K-pop 팬의 개인주의-집단주의 성향과 팬 몰입도 간의 관 계를 중심으로 팬 커뮤니티 동일시의 조절효과를 실증 분석하였다. 본 연구의 대상은 한국에 거주하거나 K-pop 팬 커뮤니티에 활발히 참여하 는 10대 후반에서 30대 중반의 중국, 일본 및 동남아시아 출신 K-pop 팬 392명으로 구성하였다. 연구 결과, 집단주의 성향이 강한 팬들이 개 인주의 성향 팬보다 더 높은 몰입도를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 집 단주의 성향 팬의 경우, 팬 커뮤니티 동일시를 통해 몰입도가 더욱 강하 게 형성되었으며, 개인주의 성향 팬에게서도 긍정적인 영향이 발견되었 다. 본 연구는 집단주의 성향 팬에게는 협업 활동을, 개인주의 성향 팬에 게는 1인칭 시점의 창의적 콘텐츠를 지원하고, 팬덤 상징체계와 참여 의 례를 활용하여 팬 커뮤니티 동일시를 높일 수 있음을 시사한다. 또한 문 화권별 특성을 고려한 맞춤형 이벤트와 로컬 마케팅 전략을 마련함으로 써 팬들의 몰입도를 극대화할 수 있음을 보여준다.

본 연구는 국회도서관 광주 분관 설립의 필요성과 타당성을 규명하고, 본관 및 부산 분관과의 역할 분담을 통해 광주 분관의 차별화된 기능을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 현재 호남권역은 지방의정 지원과 정보서 비스에 있어 여전히 소외되어 있어, 균형 잡힌 국가적 지식정보 서비스 제공을 위해 광주 분관 설립이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 국회도서관법에 따른 직무 분석과 본관·부산 분관의 운영 현황을 검토한 후, 광주 분관이 수행할 수 있는 주요 역할로 호남권 지방의회에 대한 입법 지원과 사회 과학 분야 연구자 지원을 제시하였다. 또한 광주 분관은 한국형 국회 GLAM 모델을 기반으로 의회 자료 보존 및 문화 콘텐츠 제공 기능을 강 화함으로써 지역사회의 복합문화정보시설로서의 역할을 수행할 수 있다. 이를 통해 광주 분관은 국회도서관 서비스의 지역 불균형을 해소하고, 지역 균형 발전에 기여할 수 있는 핵심 거점으로 자리 잡을 수 있을 것 이다.

This study investigated the occurrence and morphological characteristics of Polyphylla laticollis manchurica adults in the Miho River, Cheongju, from June to August 2024. Surveys were conducted at five sites along a 14 km stretch from upstream of Palgyeol Bridge to downstream of Oksan Bridge, including three sites along the main river and two sites in tributaries. No P. laticollis manchurica adults were found at the tributary sites. A total of 107 adults were recorded at site C and D, with peak occurrence observed between June 20 and August 4, 2024. The first occurrence date was recorded in June 20, the peak occurrence on July 5, and the last observation on August 4. The morphological measurements of the adults attracted by light trap were as follows: body length 33.38±1.68 mm; body width 16.02±1.00 mm; and body weight 1.45±0.32 g. The sex ratio (male : female) was 7.14 : 2.86. While no significant differences were observed in body length and width between males and females, females were significantly heavier during the third survey period. Most adults attracted to artificial light were males, and several dead individuals were found near streetlights and bridge. This study provides fundamental data on the occurrence period, habitat distribution, and phototactic behavior of P. l. manchurica, contributing to a better ecological understanding and conservation efforts for this endangered species.

Microalgae are efficient fatty acid producers owing to their high photosynthetic activities. They can act as sources of biofuel, feed, and various bioactive compounds. This study aimed to determine optimal culture conditions, including culture medium, temperature, and light intensity, to enhance the biomass and fatty acid content of the indigenous freshwater microalga, Tetradesmus obliquus. Evaluation using a high-throughput photobioreactor revealed that the optimal culture temperature and light intensity were 25°C and 300 μmol m-2 s-1, respectively. Additionally, we optimized components (N, P, and Mg) of the BG-11 medium to enhance the microalgal biomass. Modified BG-11 medium increased the T. obliquus biomass by 37% compared to the standard BG-11 medium. Subsequently, the culture medium was replaced with N- and P-depleted media to determine the abiotic stress factor that could increase the cellular fatty acid content. Notably, fatty acid content was significantly increased from 8.5% up to 14.6% on day 7 of culture in N-deficient (N-P+ and N-P-) media. Sequential optimization effectively increased the biomass by 83% and fatty acid content by >76% in T. obliquus. Our optimization method can be used to enhance the biomass and fatty acid contents of various other microalgae.

Natural populations of numerous species have decreased sharply in recent years, and a number of mammalian species are also now at elevated risk of extinction globally. The long-tailed goral Naemorhedus caudatus, a vulnerable and protected species designated by IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) and CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora), is distributed in Northeast Asia including the Korean Peninsula. In South Korea, the Seoraksan National Park is known as the largest core habitat for the long-tailed goral population. In this study, phylogenetic relationships and population genetic features of the Seoraksan goral population were analyzed using fecal samples with both mitochondrial DNA and microsatellite markers. We found that Seoraksan gorals were the most closely related to Russian population, and also found that a unique Seoraksan lineage evolved there. In addition, the Seoraksan goral population showed higher genetic diversity than other South Korean populations, suggesting that this population might represent the most ecologically and evolutionarily important remnants of the long-tailed goral in South Korea. The Seoraksan goral population had a low level of genetic differentiation and a rather single genetic structure, suggesting that non-negligible levels of gene flow might have occurred across populations. Moreover, microsatellite genotype-based individual identification estimated that the population size was ≥81 in the Seoraksan National Park. Findings of our study suggest that effective conservation and restoration actions are needed for long-term conservation of N. caudatus in this protected area.

복숭아혹진딧물(Myzus persicae Sulzer, Hemiptera: Aphididae)은 채소작물, 과수작물과 화훼작물에 발생하여 농업과 원예작물에 경제적 피해를 주는 주요 해충이다. 복숭아혹진딧물과 기주내부 미생물간의 상호작용을 이해하기 위해, 격리된 사육시설에서 약 2년간 누대사육된 복숭아 혹진딧물 내의 미생물 군집구조는 16S rRNA gene을 이용하여 분석하였다. 복숭아혹진딧물에 우점하는 미생물은 γ-proteobacteria에 속하는 Buchnera sp., Pseudomonas sp., Propionibacterium sp. 등이 주요 우점하는 것을 확인되었다. 미생물 군집크기분석은 정량 PCR을 통해 분석하였 으며, 박테리아 군집의 크기가 곰팡이 군집보다 약 4,300배 큰 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 복숭아혹진딧물 내부에는 γ-proteobacteria 에 속하는 Buchnera sp.가 기주와 매우 밀접한 상호관계가가 이루어진다고 판단되어진다. 본 연구의 결과는 복숭아혹진딧물과 기주내부 미생물간 의 상호작용을 이해하는데 기초자료로 제공될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Purpose: This study explored emergency nurses’ perception of and experiences with infection control in the emergency department (ED). Methods: This qualitative study employed focus group interviews and conventional content analysis. The participants were 19 nurses working in the ED of three general hospitals in the metropolitan area, and the data collection period was from July 1, 2024, to August 30, 2024. Four focus group interviews were conducted with each group consisting of 4~5 participants. Interviews were conducted for approximately 80 minutes per group. The interviews were audio-recorded and transcribed verbatim immediately afterward. Data were analyzed using conventional content analysis. Results: A total of 167 meaningful statements were extracted from the interviews. Five main themes and 15 subthemes were identified through interview analysis. 1) Limited information with “Limited information at the entrance of the ED” and “Challenges in sharing information”; 2) The gap between guidelines and reality with “Difficulty in adhering to guidelines due to a shortage of isolation rooms”, “Underestimating protective isolation”, “Skepticism due to practical limitations” and, “The need for infection control guidelines to fit ED circumstances”; 3) Application of guidelines that deviated from the principles with “Different nursing practice based on visual judgment”, “Guidelines that were overlooked in emergency situations” and, “Justifying the avoidance of tedious work by claiming to help prevent infection”; 4) Insensitivity to infection with “Performing only pretended infection control”, “Overlooking the importance of protective equipment”, and “Being became insensitive to infection”; and 5) The need to strengthen the organizational culture of infection control with “Interpreting the same guideline differently by individuals”, “The need for support from senior nurses to comply with the guidelines”, and “The need for practical training that reflects the reality of the ED”. Conclusion: ED nurses faced challenges in complying with infection control guidelines in the ED. These challenges were attributed to a combination of physical, structural, and personal factors. A unique feature of this study is its emphasis on the organizational culture of infection control. To improve compliance with infection control guidelines among emergency nurses, it is imperative to improve their physical and structural environment and provide regular practical training. This approach aims to foster an organizational culture that places a strong emphasis on infection control.
