This study identifies the limitations of the current medical training system for seafarers, which fails to account for the distinct accident characteristics of merchant and fishing vessels, and proposes practical improvements aligned with international conventions such as STCW and STCW-F. The research methodology involves a comparative analysis of domestic and international regulations alongside a review of 55 maritime accident written judgments from 2024 to 2025 to identify vessel-specific risk factors. Furthermore, a survey of 220 seafarers was conducted to empirically verify differences in first-aid competencies and perceptions using statistical analysis. The findings reveal a stark contrast in accident mechanisms: merchant vessels primarily experienced system-driven accidents, such as asphyxiation in enclosed spaces (63.6%) whereas fishing vessels showed an overwhelming prevalence of severe trauma, including entrapment and amputation caused by machinery (72.7%). Despite completing identical statutory training, fishing vessel personnel exhibited significantly lower proficiency in equipment utilization and basic first-aid skills compared to merchant seafarers (p < 0.001). Additionally, both groups demonstrated insufficient proficiency in advanced medical care and remote medical collaboration. The analysis further indicates that current domestic curricula omit several core subjects required by international standards and lack differentiation due to overlapping content. Based on these findings, this study proposes three key improvements: the introduction of customized curricula that emphasize professional equipment operation for merchant vessels and intensive practical trauma care for fishing vessels; the supplementation of missing subjects to align with international standards including the elevation of Radio Medical Advice (RMA) to a mandatory subject; and a transition from theory-oriented education toward a field-oriented practical training and qualification system. These measures are expected to solidify the maritime healthcare safety net by aligning training with empirical accident data and international standards.
Modern warfare demands a high level of coordination and interoperability among multiple combat vehicles and crew members operating in dynamic and complex environments. Traditional training methods are often limited in scalability, flexibility, and cost-efficiency, making it challenging to effectively prepare forces for future battlefield scenarios. To address these limitations, this study presents the development of a Multiple Combat Vehicle Integrated Training Device, a next-generation simulation-based training system. The MCITD integrates advanced technologies such as Extended Reality, Digital Twin modeling, and Artificial Intelligence to deliver immersive, interactive, and highly realistic training experiences. The system allows for simultaneous training of multiple crew members in a networked environment that replicates real-world combat conditions, including terrain, weather, and adversary behavior. Key system components, including the simulation module, network communication framework, battlefield environment generator, and performance analysis engine, are discussed in detail. Potential application scenarios such as large-scale land operations, urban warfare, and multinational joint training exercises are also explored. The MCITD aims to enhance combat readiness, mission success, and training efficiency by providing a cost-effective, scalable, and adaptable solution for future-oriented military training programs.

Background: Turtleneck posture has become increasingly common due to prolonged computer and smartphone use. Walking exercise has been reported to improve postural alignment; however, the effects of inclined backward treadmill walking on turtleneck posture remain unclear. Objectives: To determine whether backward treadmill walking with incline produces greater improvements in turtleneck posture compared with flat backward treadmill walking. Design: A randomized controlled trial. Methods: Thirty university students (20–29 years) with FHP were randomly assigned to two groups: inclined backward treadmill walking (n=20) and flat backward treadmill walking (n=20). Both groups performed 15 minutes of exercise, three times per week for 6 weeks. Outcome measures included Neck Disability Index (NDI), Craniovertebral Angle (CVA), and Cervical Apex (CA). Data were analyzed using paired t-tests and independent t-tests with α=.05. Results: Significant within-group improvements in NDI were observed in the incline group (P<.05), but not in the flat group. Both groups showed significant improvements in CVA (P<.05). Between-group comparisons revealed no statistically significant differences. Conclusion: Backward treadmill walking improved turtleneck posture regardless of incline, with inclined walking yielding greater within-group improvement in NDI. Further studies with larger sample sizes and longer intervention durations are warranted.
Background: Despite various treatment methods, many functional ankle instability (FAI) patients continue to experience functional deficits. Objectives: To investigate the effect of additional auditory feedback on balance and ankle function in task-oriented balance training for FAI patients. Design: Randomized controlled trial design. Methods: Forty FAI patients were randomly assigned to the auditory feedback task-oriented balance training (ATBT) group (n=20) and the task-oriented balance training (TBT) group (n=20). The training program was implemented for 4 weeks, 3 days a week. Results: After training, the COG movement area, speed, and distance significantly decreased in both the ATBT and TBT groups (P<.05). Additionally, the COG movement speed and distance in the ATBT group were significantly decreased compared to the TBT group (P<.05). The 6-meter crossover hop test time decreased in both the ATBT and TBT groups (P<.05). The ATBT group exhibited a significantly decreased 6-meter crossover hop test time compared to the TBT group (P<.05). Conclusion: Both ATBT and TBT enhanced balance and ankle function in FAI patients. ATBT was more effective in improving balance and ankle function than TBT.
Background: Weakness of the abdominal muscles reduces trunk control and impairs respiratory function in stroke patients. To strengthen the abdominal muscles, threshold expiratory muscle training and trunk FES can be used. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate whether a combined intervention of threshold expiratory muscle training and trunk FES is more effective in improving trunk control and respiratory function than threshold expiratory muscle training alone. Design: Randomized controlled trial. Methods: Thirty individuals with stroke were randomly assigned to either the experimental group (n=15) or the control group (n=15). The experimental group received threshold expiratory muscle training with trunk electrical stimulation, while the control group performed threshold expiratory muscle training only. Both groups underwent training three times per week for four weeks. Trunk control and respiratory function were assessed pre and post the intervention. Results: Both groups showed significant post-intervention improvement in respiratory function; however, the experimental group demonstrated a greater change than the control group. The control group showed significant improvement only in the total TIS score, whereas the experimental group showed significant improvement across all TIS subcomponents. Conclusion: Combining threshold expiratory muscle training with trunk FES is an effective approach for enhancing not only respiratory function but also trunk control. Synchronizing electrical stimulation with expiratory timing may increase efficiency and strengthen functional muscle contraction, suggesting meaningful clinical value.

Background: Early recovery of cognitive function and lower-limb strength is critical for regaining mobility and independence after stroke. However, patients with cognitive impairment often have limited participation in conventional rehabilitation (CR). Objects: This study compared the effects of robotic tilt-table training (RT) group and CR group on cognitive function, lower-limb strength, balance, gait, and activities of daily living in patients with subacute stroke. Methods: In this retrospective study, 122 patients with subacute stroke were divided into two groups: the RT group and the CR group. The interventions were administered 5 times per week for a period of 4 weeks. Cognitive function was assessed using the Korean version of the Mini-Mental State Examination, muscle strength using Manual Muscle Test, spasticity using the Modified Ashworth Scale, balance using the Berg Balance Scale, gait using the Functional Ambulation Category, and activities of daily living using the Korean version of the Modified Barthel Index, both before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed-rank tests and Mann–Whitney U-tests. Between-group comparisons were performed on change scores (Δ = post − pre), and baseline differences were adjusted using ANCOVA or rank ANCOVA as appropriate (two-sided α = 0.05). Results: After 4 weeks of intervention, both groups showed within-group improvements in balance, gait, and activities of daily living (p < 0.05); however, the RT group demonstrated greater improvements in cognitive function and lower-limb muscle strength compared to the CR group. The two groups differed significantly in cognitive function and lower extremity muscle strength (p < 0.05) but not in spasticity, balance, gait, or activities of daily living (p > 0.05). Conclusion: RT may be effective in improving cognitive function and lower-limb strength in patients with subacute stroke, potentially serving as an adjunct rehabilitation strategy to promote early mobility and functional recovery. However, its effects on balance, gait, and spasticity were not significant, indicating the need for complementary task-specific training and further controlled studies.
This study verified the moderating effects of personality types (Ego-States) on the relationship between Training Attitude (TA), Training Environment (TE), and Training Performance (TP) among Work-Learning Dual program apprentices. Drawing from Transactional Analysis, personality types were classified into five Ego-States: Critical Parent (CP), Nurturing Parent (NP), Adult (A), Free Child (FC), and Adapted Child (AC). An analysis of 354 apprentices revealed significant differences in TP scores. The FC and A types demonstrated the highest performance (mean scores of 4.11 and 4.05 out of 5, respectively), whereas the CP and NP types recorded lower scores (3.25 and 3.30, respectively). Regarding the moderating effects, TA was found to have a significant effect on TP at the 5% significance level, and the interaction term between TA and personality type also showed a significant effect on TP at the 5% level. Consequently, personality type was identified as a quasi-moderator for TA. Specifically, the positive effect of TA was weakened for the AC type but strengthened for the FC type. In the case of TE, the analysis indicated no significant direct effect on TP at the 5% significance level. However, the interaction term between TE and personality type significantly influenced TP at the 5% level, thereby confirming personality type as a pure moderator for TE. This significant impact was observed specifically for the A and AC types. These findings demonstrate that the pathway to high training performance is not uniform. The results strongly suggest the need for differentiated training management and instructional design tailored to the specific personality profiles of apprentices to maximize program effectiveness.
The Republic of Korea Armed Forces are implementing various scientific training systems to prepare for future warfare and are seeking advanced integration with AI - driven scientific military innovation. This study proposes the Synthetic Training Environment (STE) as a future-oriented model designed to overcome current limitations in military training. STE provides the foundation for evolving into an integrated, combined arms training system. In addition, the study introduces a data integration framework based on the Defense Training Management System (DTMS). This framework aims to standardize and unify training data across service branches, thereby enabling effective AI interoperability. Future tasks include real-time integration of synthetic and live training, 24/7 data access via the Metaverse, and the establishment of a cyclic system of learning, operation, and evolution. To that end, this research ultimately proposes the CJDSW-MST model - a comprehensive framework linking STE, DTMS, and unmanned combat systems for future-ready, intelligent military training.
This study aims to propose improvement measures and curriculum development strategies to maximize the educational effectiveness of the workforce training program conducted within the Carbon Materials Specialized Materials-Parts-Equipment (MPE) Cluster. An analysis of the relationship between educational satisfaction and skill improvement rates, based on participants’ characteristics— such as age, educational background, and job position—revealed a significant positive correlation between these variables. In particular, program content, training facilities and environment, and operation time were found to have a statistically significant impact on skill improvement rates Based on these findings, the existing single-track program, which focused on skilled workers and managers, was restructured into a three-stage customized curriculum consisting of beginner, skilled worker, and executive management levels. Furthermore, the courses were subdivided by company type (common, material/intermediate goods, and product/ application companies) to strengthen field-oriented practical competencies. The proportion of theoretical and practical sessions was also adjusted according to each stage to simultaneously enhance satisfaction with training duration and maximize educational effectiveness. By differentiating the ratio of theoretical to practical hours at each training stage, the revised curriculum improved satisfaction with operation time while maximizing educational outcomes. This study provides empirical evidence to enhance the effectiveness of in-service training and offers both academic and practical implications by presenting a systematic approach to talent development policies within the carbon industry cluster.

This study aims to analyze a case of a short-term Korean language training program for learners from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and to derive its implications. The program was structured in the following sequence: student recruitment by the UAEU (United Arab Emirates University) coordinator, pre-program preparation by the coordinator at University B, joint operation of the program by coordinators from both institutions, and the preparation and sharing of a final report by the University B coordinator. This study focuses on training programs conducted from 2023 to 2025 and employs qualitative analysis based on responses to surveys administered after the program. The analysis revealed that while learners generally expressed high satisfaction with the Korean language classes and cultural experiences, some reported lower satisfaction in aspects related to daily living, such as food and accommodation, due to cultural differences. These findings suggest areas for improvement in future program design. By presenting a practical case of short-term Korean language training for UAE learners, this study serves as foundational data for the development of Korean language education programs and related research targeting learners from the Middle East.

This study aimed to empirically varify the effectiveness of a pre-traumatic cognitive learning program for new firefighters from a preventive perspective. A quasi-experimental study using a single-group pre-post design was conducted with 380 newly recruited firefighters who had completed the fire academy's initial training program. A measurement tool comprising 28 severe trauma scenarios and 7 educational effectiveness evaluation items was developed through structured interviews with 37 experienced firefighters. After implementing the two-session severe trauma cognitive restructuring program, the educational effects were comprehensively evaluated using exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, paired-sample t-tests, and analysis of variance. The results confirmed that firefighters' severe trauma experiences comprise four factors: ‘Trauma from Mass Casualty and Complex Disaster Sites’, ‘Trauma Related to Firefighter Duties and Colleagues’, ‘General Trauma from Fire and Accident Sites’, and ‘Trauma Related to Handling Distressed and Damaged Bodies’. Statistically significant improvement effects were verified across all trauma factors before and after the training, and overall perceptions of training effectiveness improved. This study holds theoretical and practical significance as it empirically verified the effectiveness of preventive training for enhancing the severe trauma response capabilities of newly appointed firefighters.

This study developed a patient-specific cardiac motion-based virtual reality cardiovascular intervention simulator for training purposes. Personalized 3D cardiac models were generated from medical images using AI-based nnU-Net segmentation, and ECG-synchronized motion was integrated to reproduce physiological cardiac cycles through P-QRS-T waveform analysis. In particular, this study went beyond simple simulation by designing and implementing serious game elements including difficulty adjustment by user skill level, real-time haptic feedback, and a quantitative scoring system to maximize educational effectiveness. Real-time stent insertion was implemented at performance exceeding 60fps through the Extended Position-Based Dynamics (XPBD) algorithm. Experimental results showed that the segmentation model achieved high accuracy with an average Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) above 0.90, and the dynamic model demonstrated biomechanical behavior similar to clinical data, showing 12.3% coronary artery diameter change and 3.2mm positional displacement during the cardiac cycle.
In 2015, the safety refresher training system for seafarers was reformed with the aim of strengthening practical skills. However, a failure to forecast demand led to a chronic backlog of trainees. Furthermore, the uniform application of merchant vessel standards (STCW) to fishing vessels (STCW-F) created a qualitative problem, undermining the effectiveness of the education. This study aims to diagnose these issues and propose effective improvement measures. This research employed a mixed-methods approach. First, a comparative analysis was conducted between international conventions (STCW and STCW-F) and domestic regulations, institutional standards, and curricula. Second, an empirical analysis was performed through a survey of 220 merchant and fishing vessel seafarers, which was supplemented by in-depth interviews. The analysis revealed several critical gaps. The domestic legal framework does not distinguish between STCW and STCW-F and the curriculum is heavily biased toward theory, failing to meet international practice-oriented competency standards. The survey and interview results confirmed that the current fits all training is severely misaligned with the operational realities of fishing vessels, which have different equipment and environments. Based on these findings, this study proposes three prolonged improvement plans. First, the curriculum should be dualized to reflect the distinct characteristics of merchant and fishing vessels. Second, a hybrid training model that combines mandatory shore-based training for high-risk drills with flexible onboard training for basic skills should be introduced. Third, facility standards for training institutions should be converted from rigid mandates to flexible guidelines. These measures are expected to resolve the chronic training backlog and enhance the practical emergency response capabilities of all seafarers.
