To estimate the usability of resident register for the statistical purpose this study compares resident register with census data. The comparison shows that the differences between resident register and census data are closely related with life cycle. Among the aged the incorrect registration is supposed as the main cause for the difference, while among the other age groups the problems rise mainly from their social and economic activities. Especially among the age group between 15 and 24 level of the difference is very high, which results from university entrance and employment. This result confirms the importance of the comparison between these data according to age groups. The structural character of this difference suggests that the difference can be explained and reduced through policies.

Using the 1st and 7th waves of KEEP(Korea Education and Employment Panel), this study explores the relationships among 212 participants' characteristics during high school, experience of taking English-mediated subject courses(EMSC) during college, career decision types, and employment status. These students' high school experiences and college experiences were used to predict the log-odds of taking and the understanding EMSC. Results of the analysis showed that none of high school characteristics such as career decision, English private education experience, interest in English, and their scholastic aptitude test score in English were associated with taking and understanding EMSC. Among college experience variables, only female students' level of understanding English subject courses was statistically significantly higher than that of male students. There were statistically significant positive associations between the understanding the EMSC and the number of the EMSC taken and also between the understanding of the EMSC and perceived usefulness of the EMSC. There was also a statistically significant relationship between career types (continuing with graduate studies vs. working) and taking EMSC, but the relationship between career types and understanding the EMSC was not statistically significant. In addition, the relationship between the experience of taking EMSC and employment status was not statistically significant.

In order to analyze the experience of women from the provinces settling in Seoul, the current study conducts in-depth interviews on seven women who are working in Seoul after coming up to Seoul to attend and graduate from university. The results of the interview were analyzed using grounded theory methodology, under which the open coding extracted one hundred ten concepts, twenty-one sub-categories, and eleven categories encompassing them all. Causal condition is 'difficulty of settling in Seoul' and contextual conditions are 'intensification of psychological anxiety', 'reduction in quality of life', and 'continuation of economic instability'. The central phenomenon is 'dilemma of continuing life in Seoul' and intervening condition is 'diagnosis of ten years after coming up to Seoul'. Action/interaction strategies are 'changes in personal life', 'securing economic abilities through a stable job', and 'finding ways to participate in the society', while the result was 'choosing whether to continue living in Seoul'. The paradigm of experience of women from the provinces settling in Seoul proceed from coming up to Seoul for university to becoming independent, adapting to life in the city, experiencing growth and failures, facing challenge and searching for solutions, and conducting self-evaluation and making new choices. The participants reported that they were aware of differences and experienced anxieties as a stranger in Seoul even after living in the city for ten years; the problems they face have become more complex and diverse since when they were in university, and while they launched a career and making money, the gap between them and their peers from Seoul has not closed. The women also express desperation that they may need to leave Seoul to find alternatives to problems caused by accumulated stress and social problems that cannot be solved by an individual. In conclusion, the current study confirmed that efforts by individuals can only have limited effects in helping women from the provinces to settle in Seoul, indicating that detailed policy plans are required to solve social issues in the overall Korean society.

This study analyzes how the satisfaction of nursing students with their chosen major affected the outcome of their future engagement in the major. The survey included 127 nursing students at two nursing colleges, each located in Busan and Gyeongsangbuk-do, and results were analyzed using SPSS 22.0. Our results indicate that scores achieved for level of satisfaction in the major and engagement in the major were both higher than the mid value on a 5 point Likert Scale, being 3.91 and 3.61, respectively. Moreover, satisfaction with school life resulted in good health of the student. The student was self-motivated when applying to enter the school when level of satisfaction and engagement in the major was high. Engagement in the major was also predicted to be affected by other factors (accounting for 26%), in the following order: being satisfied with school life, self-motivated when applying to the school, and having a high average grade. Based on the results of analysis obtained by adding sub-variables pertaining to major satisfaction, 65.4% factors predicted to have an effect were general satisfaction as well curricular and relational satisfaction.

Using SPSS package, there was no significant difference between freshmen, sophomore and junior students in any category Male students responded more positively than female students in all the categories. To explore survey results deeply, we selected 3 students from sophomore and junior levels and 2 extra senior students to conduct interviews. The interpretation of the data described how their academic problems unfold partly because they seek another major and how their professional development take place carrying out practicum activities. Most of the interviewees felt that their academic lives were affected motivations of entering college of education and difficulties of studying subject matter knowledge.

This study was to investigate the factors affecting the learning strategies of the students in the Department of Health Science. The data collection was conducted through a self-reporting questionnaire to 373 college students majoring in health and health care at two universities in J.do. and the collected data was analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 23.0 program. The study found that there were significant differences in learning strategies depending on Motive of application and major satisfaction level, and there were significant differences in academic stress with the grade, gender, Motive of application, major satisfaction, and academic self-efficiency, and self-directed learning depending on the grade, motive of application, and major satisfaction level. The results showed that the correlation between learning strategy and academic self-efficacy(r=.478, p<.001) and self-directed learning(r=645, p<.001), academic stress(r=-.193, p<.001). Self-directed learning(${\beta}=0.61$), major satisfaction (satisfaction) (${\beta}=0.31$), and major satisfaction (usually)(${\beta}=0.24$) affect the learning strategy, with 42.6% overall explanation. Based on the results of the study, the search for ways to improve major satisfaction levels and self-directed learning skills could have a positive impact on improving the learning strategy of college students in the health sector.
