Machine translation (MT) system, especially Korean-Mongolian MT system, has recently attracted much attention due to its necessary for the globalization generation. Korean and Mongolian have the same sentence structure SOV and the arbitrarily changing of their words order does not change the meaning of sentences due to postpositional particles. The particles that are attached behind words to indicate their grammatical relationship to the clause or make them more specific in meaning. Hence, the particles play an important role in the translation between Korean and Mongolian. However, one Korean particle can be translated into several Mongolian particles. This is a major issue of the Korean-Mongolian MT systems. In this paper, to address this issue, we propose a method to use the combination of UTagger and a Korean-Mongolian particles table. UTagger is a system that can analyze morphologies, tag POS, and disambiguate homographs for Korean texts. The Korean-Mongolian particles table was manually constructed for matching Korean particles with those of Mongolian. The experiment on the test set extracted from the National Institute of Korean Language's Korean-Mongolian Learner's Dictionary shows that our method achieved the accuracy of 88.38% and it improved the result of using only UTagger by 41.48%.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the prevalence of social anxiety among late School-aged Children and identify factors influencing the tendency to social anxiety. A self-report survey was conducted with primary school children who were in the 6th grades. Two hundred and seventy eight children were included in the study. The instruments utilized in this study were SASCA-K (Korean Social Anxiety Scale for children and adolescents), SES(Self-esteem Scale), CAPS(Child and Adolescent Perfectionism Scale), DSRS-C(Depression Self-Rating Scale for Children), and IPPA-R(Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment-Revised version). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, One-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation and multiple regression with SPSS WIN 23.0 program. Social anxiety for the schoolchildren was positively correlated with perfectionism and depression, whereas self-esteem and attachment security was negatively correlated with social anxiety. Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that 38.0% of the variance for social anxiety was significantly accounted for by self-esteem, self-oriented perfectionism, depression, attachment security (Father-communication). The most significant factor influencing social anxiety was self-esteem. Findings suggest that expanding health education, counseling and school-based health education programs is necessary to prevent and intervention mental problems of late School-aged Children through integrated intervention by schools, families and communities.

The purpose of this study was to identify correlation among social support, recovery resilience, and self-care behavior among the elderly with hypertension, as well as to clarify factors that affect self-care behavior. This was a descriptive study conducted with 183 hypertensive seniors over age 65 from three different senior welfare centers in C region. Data of this study were collected from Aug 20-31, 2018. T-test, ANOVA, Pearson's coefficient, and stepwise multiple regression were used for analysis. As a result, the mean score of social support was $3.79{\pm}0.78$ out of 5, recovery resilience was $4.10{\pm}0.71$ out of 5, and self-care behavior was $3.93{\pm}0.51$ out of 5. Self-care behavior had a statistically significant positive correlation with social support(r=.204, p<.001) and recovery resilience(r=.405, p<.001). Factors influencing Self-care behavior were recovery resilience(${\beta}=.36$, p<.001) and regularity of exercise(${\beta}=.17$, p=.019). These factors explained 18.9% of self-care behavior(F=21.02, p<.001). The study results indicate that recovery resilience and regularity of exercise are critical factors affecting self-care behavior among the elderly with of hypertension. Therefore, to promote self-care behavior among the hypertensive seniors, regular exercise must be advised and the development and evaluation of nursing interventions that can improve recovery resilience may be necessary.

This study is a descriptive survey study to investigate the quality of sleep and to compare the factors relating quality of sleep in the young-old people and the old-old people. The subjects of the study were 200 elderly people who live in the G-region applying convenient expression method. Using a structured questionnaire, sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle and health-related characteristics, depression, and quality of sleep were examined. We analyzed ${\chi}^2-test$, t-test, ANOVA(scheffe's test), Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression using IBM SPSS WIN/21.0. The results of the study were as follows. The quality of sleep was significantly worse in the old-old people than in the young-old people. In young-old people, only depression (r=-.22, p=.038) showed a significant negative correlation with sleep quality. Old-old people was a significant negative correlation between sleep quality and depression (r=-.19, p=.045) and subjective health status (r=-.29, p=.002). In the young-old people, job, chronic illness, and economic level were significant influencing factors in the quality of sleep. In the old-old people, chronic disease, subjective health status, and smoking were significant influencing factors. The results of this study can be used as basic data for establishing tailored strategy for ages that can improve health of the elderly.
