An Emergency Diesel Generator (EDG) installed in a nuclear power plant is the primary power source, supplying AC power to Class 1E power systems when the main turbine generator and offsite power source are not available. Thus, reliability of the EGD is essential for plant safety and availability. In this paper, the EDG is selected for a Long Term Asset Management (LTAM) strategy and the results are summarized briefly. The LTAM strategy is intended to provide an effective long-term planning tool for minimizing unplanned capability loss and then optimizing maintenance programs and capital investments consistent with plant safety and an identified plant operating strategy. Such an operating strategy might include license renewal or retaining the option for license renewal.

Information is known to be a key element for the successful operation of a supply chain, which is required of the efficient ordering strategies and accurate predictions of demands. This study proposes a method to effectively utilize the meteorological forecast information in order to make decisions about ordering and prediction of demands by using the Taguchi experimental design. It is supposed that each echelon in a supply chain determines the order quantity with the prediction of precipitation in the next day based on probability forecast information. The precipitation event is predicted when the probability of the precipitation exceeds a chosen threshold. Accordingly, the choice of the threshold affect the performances of a supply chain. The Taguchi method is adopted to deduce a set of thresholds for echelons which is least sensitive to changes in environmental conditions, such as variability of demand distributions and production periods. A simulation of the beer distribution game was conducted to show that the set of thresholds found by the Taguchi method can reduce the cumulative chain cost, which consists of inventory and backlog costs.

The purpose of this study was to identify the determinants of decision-making confidence of clothing. As determinants, this study examined consumer susceptibility to interpersonal influence, vanity, and clothing knowledge. Data were collected through surveying university students in Seoul metropolitan area using convenience sampling method. Out of 324 distributed, 300 useful questionnaires were returned. The results showed that identical conformity among consumer susceptibility to interpersonal influence factors significantly influences, both directly and indirectly, decision making confidence through vanity. Although normative conformity does not influence decision-making confidence directly, it does significantly influence decision-making confidence indirectly through influencing vanity and clothing knowledge. The results suggest clothing is a manifestation tool for managing public self, which finally leads to increased clothing knowledge and decision-making confidence of clothing. These findings may be used by marketers in developing strategies for product development and promotion.

This paper analyzes the difference between theoretical cost of quality and real world cost. Examined are the theoretical cost structure of quality, it’s measurement styles, a process based improvement strategy of quality cost, and possible adaptation of d

A major purpose of management or occupational safety is a significant decrease in safety accidents. With this view, the establishment of occupational safety culture and the building of occupational communication network stand out as being more important than the past. This study has analysed the positive effects of occupational safety communication on safety consciousness and action of the employees in workplace. And it is confirmed that the occupational safety communication in workplace is the essential mechanism, through which the workers internalize safety consciousness and act safely. The safety consciousness and action of the employees are formed in safety culture, which is not only legal regulations, but a daily communication network in workplace. In these sense, the building of the occupational safety communication network is decisive for the establishment of safety culture. For these reasons, this study makes the proposition that a firm promotion of occupational communication network is necessary, which connects the safety culture and a effective safety management in workplace.

This paper analyzes the difference between theoretical cost of quality and real world cost. Examined are the theoretical cost structure of quality, it's measurement styles, a process based improvement strategy of quality cost, and possible adaptation of decision making concepts in enhancing the cost structure. This study will contribute to the literature in delineating an improvement process of quality cost by adjusting service policy.

개개인들의 유전적인 성향에 따라 금융투자 포트폴리오 양상은 다르게 나타나고 있다. 하지만 금융투자와 관련된 그동안의 연구결과에서는 이러한 연구가 거의 없는 상황이다. 기존 연구 중에서 개개인들의 유전적인 특성(trait)이 금융투자에 어떠한 영향을 주는가와 관련하여 스웨덴의 경우 유전적인 특성에 따라 투자패턴이 25% 정도 상이하였음을 나타내어 주고 있다.

본 연구에서는 기존의 전형성에서 긍정/부정이라는 정서적 방향성이 분명하게 이탈된 디자인을 활용한 제품에 대한 선호도와 구매의사에 성격이 어떤 영향을 미치는지를 알아보았다. 기존의 긍정적 전형성에서 부정적으로 이탈된 디자인 제품과 기존의 부정적 전형성에서 긍정적으로 이탈된 디자인 제품에 대한 참가자들의 선호도와 구매의사가 측정되었으며 여기에 미치는 개인 특성으로 외향성, 신경증, 심미적 성향이 측정되었다. 연구 결과, 참가자들은 부정적으로 이탈된 디자인 제품보다 긍정적으로 이탈된 디자인 제품을 훨씬 더 선호하였고 구매의사도 더 높았다. 부정적으로 이탈된 디자인 제품의 선호도에는 신경증이 유의미한 영향을 미쳐 신경증이 높을수록 부정이탈 디자인 제품을 더 선호하였다. 또한 부정이탈 디자인 제품의 구매의사에 대해서는 선호도와 외향성의 상호작용 효과가 나타났는데, 즉 내향적인 사람일수록 높은 선호도가 실제 구매의사로 이어질 가능성이 유의미하게 높았다. 반면 긍정이탈 디자인 제품에 대해서는 성격의 효과가 전혀 나타나지 않았다. 본 연구의 결과는 부정적인 정서를 유발하는 전형성 이탈 디자인 제품에 있어서는 개인의 성격적 특성이 선호도 및 구매의사에 중요한 역할을 함을 보여준다.

본 연구는 OO 교도소에서 제공되는 집단프로그램에 참여하는 성폭력범죄자로서 교도소 담당자에 의해 의뢰된 대상으로 자아존중감과 성의식 및 의사소통 변화를 위한 효과성에 관한 연구이다. 프로그램 진행은 2***년 **월부터 **월까 지 주 1회씩 총 8회에 걸쳐 약 120분씩 교도소 내 집단 상담실에서 실시하였다. 본 연구의 효과를 검증하기 위해 객관적인 평가와 주관적인 평가를 하였다. 실험집단과 통제집단을 설정하여 프로그램 실시 전․후에 자아존중감과 성의식 및 의사소통 검사지를 실시 한 후 t-test를 실시하였다. 또한 주관적인 평가로서 연구자와 관찰자 중심기법을 사용하였다. 연구결과를 토대로 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 집단프로그램이 성폭력 범죄자의 자아존중감과 성의식 및 의사소통 변화에 효과가 있었다. 또한 프로그램 실시 구성단계에 따라 하위영역의 깊이에 변화를 주었다. 이것은 여러 가지 급변하는 어려운 한계 속에 교도소 실천현장에서 집단 프로그램의 활용가능성을 제시하는 데에 의의와 큰 성과가 있다고 하겠다.

본 연구의 목적은 응답자의 사회ㆍ경제적 상황에 따 른 산림경관에 대한 지불의사금액의 차이를 구명함에 있다. 이를 위해 통계적 기법을 활용하여 사회ㆍ경제적 상황에 따른 지불의사금액의 차이를 분석한 결과, 산림 을 접할 때 가장 높은 금액을 지불할 의사가 있는 것으 로 나타났다. 그리고 남자보다는 여자가 더 높은 지불 의사금액이 나타났으며, 전문직, 자영업 등 경제적 여 유가 있는 직업보다는 생산직, 공무원 등과 같이 시간 적 여유가 있는 직업에서 높은 지불의사금액이 나타났 다. 그리고 연령에서는 은퇴 후인 60대에서 산림경관에 대해 지불할 의사가 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 가구당 소 득에 있어서는 소득이 증가할수록 지불의사가 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있으나 1,000만 원 이상 고소득층에서는 오히려 지불의사가 가장 낮게 나타난 점이 흥미롭다.

The purpose of this study was to identify the competing values leadership of restaurant general managers and to investigate the impact of their competing values leadership on employee job satisfaction and turnover intention. A sample of full-time restaurant employees (n=360, 36% response) completed an e-mail survey. The results showed that among the eight sub-dimensions of competing values leadership roles, the monitor (4.04), producer (4.01), and director (3.99) roles were perceived as the most frequently used leadership styles of managers compared to broker (3.78), innovator (3.83), and mentor (3.91) roles (p <0.001). Additional T-test results suggested that an employees’ gender had an influence on how he/ she perceived the leadership style of their manager. Male employees were more likely to perceive that the director and mentor roles (4.19) were performed very well by their managers, while female employees perceived that their managers concentrated more on monitor (3.98) and producer (3.96) roles rather than on broker (3.73) and innovator (3.79) roles (p< 0.05). It was found that manager competing values leadership had a significant correlation with employee job satisfaction, and the mentor, coordinator, and innovator manager roles explained the relationship with 42.1% based on multiple regression analysis (p<0.001). In further findings, the manager competing values leadership roles had an effect on employee turnover intention. The results of the data were as follows: mentor and facilitator roles promoted a decrease in employee turnover intention and the director role caused employee turnover intention to increase. Ultimately, this study will be useful for restaurant managers to guide the application of appropriate competing values leadership roles in order to strengthen employee job satisfaction and to reduce turnover intention.

This paper observes how the third grade elementary English textbook does not provide target-like balanced language input. It proposes that the unbalance is attributed to the usefulness-based listing of communicative function expressions in the 7th National English Curriculum. The paper concludes that the problem is hard to resolve unless due and proper attention is paid to formal and structural aspects of the target language in designing national English curriculum and developing English textbooks.
