This study began with the discovery of the concept of frequency density in Singapore textbooks and in a set of subject contents of the UK's General Certificate of Secondary Education. To understand the mathematical meaning of frequency density, the mathematical connection of frequency density was considered in terms of mathematics internal connections and mathematics external connections. In addition, the teaching method of frequency density was introduced. In terms of mathematical internal connections, the connections among the probability density function, relative frequency density, and frequency density in high school statistics were examined. Regarding mathematical external connections, the connection with the density concept in middle school science was analyzed. Based on the mathematical connection, the study suggested the need to introduce the frequency density concept. For the teaching method of frequency density, the Singapore secondary mathematics textbook was introduced. The Singapore textbook introduces frequency density to correctly represent and accurately interpret data in histograms with unequal class intervals. Therefore, by introducing frequency density, Korea can consistently teach probability density function, relative frequency density, and frequency density, emphasizing the mathematical internal connections among them and considering the external connections with the science subject. Furthermore, as a teaching method of frequency density, we can consider the method provided in the Singapore textbook.

본 연구에서는, 6년 전에 개발된 수학 창의적 문제 해결력 검사(MCPSAT; 한국교육개발원(김흥원 외, 1997))에 대한 현시점의 적합성여부를 알아보기 위하여 이 검사의 중학교 1-3학년용 A형 1부 검사와 고등학교 1-2학년용 A형 1부 검사를 해당 학년 학생들에게 적용하여 분석하였다. 검사도구의 양호도는 비교적 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 중학교와 고등학교 모두 문항 내적 일관성 신뢰도(Cronbach ${\alpha}$)의 계수가 약간 떨어져 있지만 비교적 양호한 것으로 볼 수 있으며 변별도는 점이연 상관 계수가 0에 가까운 문항이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 모든 문항이 학생들의 수학 창의적 문제 해결력을 변별해 줄 수 있을 것으로 생각한다. 내적 타당도는 중학교의 경우 관대하게 본다면 수용할 만 하고, 고등학교의 경우 아직은 우려할 수준은 아니다. 즉, 중학교 문항 1과 문항 4는 적합도 지수 1.2를 상회하였으나 Infit과 Outfit 모두 1.5를 넘는 문항은 없었다. 고등학교의 문항 4는 문항의 적합도 지수 1.2를 상회하는 것으로 나타나고 있으나 Infit과 Outfit 모두 1.2를 상회하지 않았다. 난이도 측면에서 볼 때, 이 검사의 계속 사용은 염려스러운 면이 있다. 즉, 중학교에서는 6년 전 보다 쉬운 것으로 나타나고 있는 바 이것은 현재의 학생들이 이러한 유형의 문항을 많이 접하였을 것으로 추측할 수 있다. 고등학교에서는 6년 전 보다 조금 더 어려워 졌다고 볼 수 있다. 위의 사항을 종합할 때, 수학 창의적 문제 해결력 검사에서 중학생용은 현재의 학생들의 수준을 고려하여 재 표준화하는 것이 바람직하고, 고등학생용은 개발 당시의 신뢰도, 난이도, 변별도 등에서 유사하므로 당분간 계속 사용하여도 될 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the validity and reliability of the Communication Skills Attitude Scale, which is used to examine communication learning attitudes for domestic nursing students. Study subjects were 401 nursing students at two nursing college who completed the CSAS scale consisting of 26 items from June 1 to 15. Data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, internal consistency with IBM Statistics SPSS 21.0, and the IBM Statistics AMOS 21.0 program. To verify the construction factor of the scale, exploratory factor analysis with varimax rotation was performed, resulting in four factors but confirmed positive and negative attitudes two factors with 19 items considering the construct of theory and interpretability. The internal structure of the scale was schematized using confirmatory factor analysis, and goodness of fit of the final research model was very appropriate as shown by ${\chi}^2=446.475$ (df=148, p<0.001), TLI=.90, CFI=.91, RMSEA=.07, SRMR=.05. The final scale consisted of 19 items and two factors based on the confirmatory factor analysis. Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ for final scale was .90, showing internal consistency. The CSAS is expected to be useful to monitor the effectiveness of multiple teaching strategies about communication for domestic nursing students.

The performance of organizational culture effectiveness has been supported by several researchers. Since Peters & Waterman acclaimed that the excellent companies have their unique culture type, the effectiveness of organization culture have been practically supported. Organization culture is closely related to employees' satisfaction and commitment and contributed to the subjective performance and financial performance in terms of individual and organizational level. Organizational culture is a valuable resources and competitive advantage for the successful growth. Thefore, I have proposed some proposition regarding the type and strength of organization culture and the interaction effect of internal consistency which should be studied for more fundamental study of the effectiveness of organizational culture.

Objectives：This study was designed for testing of Eating Attitude Test for Korean adolescents (EAT-26KA) on internal reliability and test-retest reliability and evaluation of each items through factor analysis. Methods：Total 1,160 middle and high school students were surveyed on June 1996. The questionnaire had been delivered by school teachers two weeks earlier before survey started. Among the 1,160 students, 114 students were selected by random. And then they were retested with same questionnaire on July 1996, four weeks later Result：Internal consistency of EAT-26KA was relatively good(Cronbach’s ${\alpha}$ =.83). There was statistically significance on test-retest reliability(r=.63 p<.01). But two items showed negative correlations(item No. 9, 17). and 5 items had low level correlation(p>.05, item No. 2, 6, 12, 21, 24). We performed factor analysis on whole items except No. 25 item. Result of factor analysis showed that the factor structure of EAT-26KA were different from that of EAT-26. Conclusion：The EAT-26KA is useful for the survey of the eating behavior and problems in Korean adolescents.
