It is frequently observed that consumers' behavior and performance in their weight control are greatly affected by the degree of self-control by the consumers themselves. In other words, effective weight control behavior is only possible when the consumers invest a substantial amount of endeavors and self-control. The present study empirically investigated the effect of the self-image congruence and subjective norm formed by self- concept reflected in weight control behavior on weight control attitude formation, actual behavior, and performance. For more in-depth research, rather than simply showing differences in performance based on self-control, the present study divided the subjects into high and low self-control groups for a comparative purpose. Based on empirical research employing general consumers and those who were engaged in an actual weight loss program at professional weight control centers as subjects, the study found the following results: First, for both high and low self-control groups, self-image congruence significantly affected attitude toward weight control, but not the actual weight control behavior. The results indicate that in weight control, the actual behavior must be preceded by the attitude. Second, subjective norm directly affected both attitude toward weight control, and behavior for the low self-control group while it affected the behavior only for the high self-control group. The results show that the lower self-control is, the more powerful the effect of referents is. Third, weight control attitude positively affected weight control behavior only for the high self-control group. Fourth, weight control behavior significantly affected the performance for both high and low self-control groups. Compared to the low group, the high self-control group showed more powerful effect of behavior, suggesting the crucial role of self-control in successful weight control. The results also imply that the role of referents is relatively more important for the low self-control group.

This research deals with expressive definition of visual contents by using the distance between a subject and a screen resolution, and what changes affect the emotion of those looking at the expressive definition. A visual image captured from a HDTV screen was shown to the 61 students attending a university in the Busan area and SAM evaluation method was used to measure 3 different emotions such as pleasant, arousal, and dominance. While comparing different resolution, looking at high resolution contents rather than low resolution resulted in a direction of pleasant, arousal, and dominance. Also showing a different resolution than consistently showing the same resolution had a more volatile emotional effect. Aftermath multiple comparison resulted in a tendency for emotions to become unpleasant and un-arousal when high resolution contents were shown and then switched to a low resolution contents. There was no result of any significance in the control variables. Also on the aftermath multiple comparison on short, medium and long distance between the subject and the screen resolution, short distance had a bigger pleasant, arousal, and dominance emotional numbers than the rest. In a multiple variable verification result, a resolution and the distance of happiness and excitement showed a positive correlation.

하천의 시간유량 혹은 일유량과 같은 연속유량을 획득하기 위해서는 각각 정해진 시각에 유량측정 시행해야한다. 그러나 매시각, 매일 유량측정을 시행하는 것은 경제적으로나 기술적으로 매우 어려운 일이다. 따라서 연속적인 유량자료를 획득하기 위해 수위-유량관계를 작성하고 이를 연속적으로 측정한 수위에 대입하여 유량으로 환산하다. 하상변동이 심하게 발생하지 않는 안정적인 하천에서는 수위-유량관계 또한 시간에 따라 변화하지 않고 안정적인 관계를 유지한다. 다만, 우리나라 대부분의 하천에서는 주요 홍수 전 후로 통제하도의 하상이 변화하기 때문에 일반적으로 2개 혹은 3개 기간으로 수위-유량관계를 분리하여 유량환산에 이용하고 있다. 통제하도가 모래하천인 경우에는 주요홍수 이외에도 지속적으로 세굴 혹은 퇴적이 발생하기 때문에 매 유량측정 마다 서로 다른 수위-유량관계를 나타낸다. 따라서 주요 홍수 전 후로 수위-유량관계를 기간 분리하여 작성한다고 해도 신뢰성 있는 유량자료를 확보하기 곤란하다. 이와같이 불안정한 하도 통제를 받는 지점에서는 매 유량측정시마다 수위-유량관계를 조정하여 유량을 환산하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 모래하천인 내성천의 향석 지점의 유량측정 성과를 이용하여 수위-유량관계를 개발하고, 매 유량측정시에 측정한 수위와 유량자를 이용하여 수위-유량관계 조정곡선을 작성하였다. 이를 이용하여 수위-유량관계를 조정하여 연속적인 유량환산을 시행하였다. 이 결과 기존 홍수 전 후로 기간 분리하여 작성한 수위-유량관계를 이용한 환산유량과 비교하여 신뢰성 있는 유량자료를 확보할 수 있었다.

Advent of the distributed computing has contributed to the rapid distribution of information technology throughout the organization. While powerful and user-friendly information technology are more available to end users, managing the distributed, heterogeneous IT environment has become a serious problem for corporate IT managers. Integrated Control Architecture (ICA) enables the monitoring and controlling of the dispersed information resources for effective enterprise-wide information resource management. This paper empirically examines the propositions that the level of information resource control is positively related to IS effectiveness measured in user satisfaction. Measures are developed and validated for the control of information resource object such as data, application, platform, and control of relationships among such objects. Results from a study of 130 organizations support that the organizations with high information resource control exhibit user satisfaction.

Naval Gun FCS(Fire Control System) is the most fundamental weapon system in Naval Combat System. Simulationbased verification of FCS is mandatory before sea trial since ballistic solution needs complicated process and uses almost all information produced by own ship sensors. The FCS simulation method is proposed for verification of naval gun FCS and applicable to the FCS design depending on combat system development phase based on available data in each design phase. Verified FCS through proposed simulation method is adapted in real naval combat system and the performance has been proven by sea trial.

Spyware is any software which employs a user's Internet connection in the background without their knowledge or explicit permission. The installation of spywares is generally done in a sneaky, misleading or unannounced manner. It does not only compromise the security and privacy of affected users but also be an obstruction to the digital convergence and ubiquitous computing environments. This paper provides a summary of the definition, status, risk analysis, and security controls of the spywares. Furthermore, this paper suggests additional controls which should be considered at an individual, organizational and national perspective.

This study investigates convergent influence on job seeking stress and its association with self esteem, hopelessness, depression, locus of control and type A behavior pattern among some college women. The survey was administered to 531 college women in Jeonbuk area from March 28th to April 29th, 2016. The structured self-administered questionaries were used. The results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis show the following. The job seeking stress of respondents turned out to be significantly higher in following groups: a group in which self esteem is lower and groups in which hopelessness, depression, external locus of control and type A behavior pattern are higher. Their explanatory power was 43.2%. With the analysis of covariance structure, we could confirm relationship among the four factors such as self esteem, hopelessness, depression, locus of control, type A behavior pattern and job seeking stress. The results of the study indicate that the efforts, to increase self esteem, and to decrease hopelessness, depression, locus of control and type A behavior pattern, are required to reduce the job seeking stress of the college women. The results are expected to be useful for the development of program and policy to decrease the job seeking stress of the college women. In the following study, the analysis about additional factors of influence on job seeking stress will be needed.

The propose of study is to examine the characteristics of companies with high possibility to form an internal control weakness using forecasting model. This study use the actual listed/unlisted companies' data from K_financial institution. The first conclusion is that discriminant model is more valid than logit model to predict internal control weak companies. A discriminant model for predicting the vulnerability of internal control has high classification accuracy and has low the Type II error that is incorrectly classifying vulnerable companies to normal companies. The second conclusion is that the characteristic of weak internal control companies have a low credit rating, low asset soundness assessment, high delinquency rates, lower operating cash flow, high debt ratios, and minus operating profit to the net sales ratio. As not only a case of listed companies but unlisted companies which did not occur in previous studies are extended in this study, research results including the forecasting model can be used as a predictive tool of financial institutions predicting companies with high potential internal control weakness to prevent asset losses.

The purpose of this study was to 1) explore the effectiveness of a college-level self-management (SM) course in improving a target behavior and reducing impulsivity, 2) investigate improvements in other non-target self-control behaviors(generalization of self-control), and 3) determine whether change in impulsivity could predict the generalization of self-control. A total of 128 College students who took the SM course were included. Participants completed the computerized delay-discounting task, self-report impulsiveness scale, and general self-control behavior questionnaire at the beginning and end of the course. After participants had defined their target behaviors, they self-monitored and recorded their behaviors everyday throughout the course. Results revealed that 63% of the participants successfully changed their target behaviors after the course. Although differing depending on the type of target behavior, thoes who successfully changed their target behaviors reported decreases in impulsivity and increases in other self-control behaviors such as physical exercise, healthy diet, study habits, and time management, after the course. Furthermore, the decrease of impulsivity significantly predicted the generalization of self-control in the exercise and diet groups. The results indicate that reduced impulsivity is related to improvements in a target behavior and general self-control behaviors in other spheres. Implications and limitations are also discussed.
