The purpose of this paper is to explore the possibility of backwards causation. For study, this paper was divided into four views as follows: The first view was sometimes suggested by the people such as M. Dummett who distinguished observers from behaviors. According to observers' view, backwards causation is impossible, whereas behaviors' view possible. However, in a real or genuine sense, it is incorrect for us to argue for impossibility of backwards causation from the observer aspect. The second view was supported by J. H. Schmidt. He analyzed the possibility of backwards causation in terms of macro and micro level analysis about the causal events. According to micro level analysis, backwards causation is possible, but macro level analysis impossible. Usually the latter makes the former something miraculous. Under the macro level analysis, backwards causation, at first, seems to be miraculous phenomena which belongs to the micro level analysis. The third view had to do with physical equation, and the fourth view physical phenomena, respectively. John Earman argued for the backwards causation by the transformation from Lorentz­-Dirac equation to a second-order integro-differential one in the field of electrodynamic acceleration. His argument was criticized because of his misunderstanding about the relationship between two equations. On the other hand, Phil Dowe defended a version of Reichenbach's own theory about the direction of causation founded on the fork asymmetrical causal relation. However his view was different from Reichenbach's because the former defended the backwards causation model of Bell phenomena in quantum mechanics. On the contrary, Reichenbach put stressed on the priority of cause in the causal process. Subjectivism has recently been defended by H. Price, under the label of perspectivism. According to him, in a certain sense causal asymmetry is not in the world, but is rather a product of our own asymmetric perspective on the world. He also suggested causal net, the symmetry of microphysics, and so on. As mentioned above, there are many kind of suggestions of backwards causation. However none of them replaced objectively the main streams of the direction of causal process. The main stream has been usually defended by pragmatical ground. That is, effects do not precede their causes although causes cannot be without their effects.

다량의 점토 퇴적물로 구성된 연약지반은 대단히 큰 압축성과 낮은 강도, 높은 함수량등의 물리·역학적 특성을 갖는다. 이러한 기초지반으로서의 불리한 특성 때문에 이를 대상으로 하는 각종 토목건설공사에서는 지반개량이나 안정처리가 반드시 선행되어야 할 과제이다. 이를 위해 종래에는 샌드드레인, 페이퍼드레인 등의 물리적인 공법에 의한 지반개량이 주류를 이루었으나, 최근에는 생석회나 시멘트계 고화재를 이용한 화학적 안정 처리공법이 크게 주목을 받고 있어 이에 대한 연구가 활발한 상황이다. 본 연구는 연약 지반 안정처리에 대한 방안을 모색하기 위하여 김해 지역에 분포하는 점토 퇴적물을 대상으로 각종 광물재료를 이용한 반응실험을 통하여 반응생성물 조사와 압축강도시험 등을 행하여 그 결과를 검토하였다. 우선 연약지반의 고화에 이용 가능한 생석회, 석고, 플라이에쉬, 고분자폴리머, 시멘트 등을 사용하여 점토와 혼합한 고화실험을 행하였으며, 이에 대한 물성 및 반응생성물을 검토하였다. 이러한 각 재료를 점토에 혼합한 후 PVC관에 모울딩하여 양생시켜 실험하였다. 그 결과, 석고 및 소석회에 비하여 생석회의 경우가 비교적 큰 압축강도를 나타내고, 균열발생 빈도도 낮았다. 생석회의 경우에 Gehlenite, Hillebrandite 등의 생성물질이 검출되었다. 그러나 포틀란트 시멘트와 혼합한 경우가 강도가 가장 크게 나타났다. 반면에 고분자폴리머만 사용한 경우는 강도가 매우 낮았다. 따라서 시멘트를 일정 비율로 배합한 다른 재료를 첨가한 실험을 행하여 그 물성을 검토하였다 물질의 화학적인 특성을 고려하여 포졸란반응이 잘 일어날 수 있을 것으로 생각되는 여러 재료를 선정하여 많은 조합에 대한 실험을 행하였다. 생석회, 석고, 고령토, 규조토, 제올라이트 등의 여러 재료를 여러 조합으로 첨가하여 실험한 결과, 시멘트와 석고를 혼합한 것이 비교적으로 높은 압축강도를 나타내었다. 그리고 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 연약점도의 고화에 최적인 조합과 배합비를 위한 실험을 재차 실시하였으며, 실험 후의 물성과 함께 반응생성물에 대한 검토도 행하여 그 결과를 발표하고자 한다.

This study analyzed Korean university libraries' holdings of Western language books published in 2003 and 2013 using the KERIS union catalog with a view to investigating the changes in collection development of Western language books in the libraries. To do that, new collection indexes - holding h-index, CUI (Collection Uniqueness Index), and CCHR (Common Collection Holding Ratio) - were suggested, and they were used with basic indexes such as the number of titles, the number of books, and the number of books per title. The analysis reveals that compared to those published in 2003, the number of titles was decreased by 16.1% with those published in 2013, and the number of books dropped more sharply, by 42.2%. Also, in 2013, CCHR was decreased while CUI was increased. In terms of subject, among DDC main classes, 0XX (Generalities) showed the greatest decrease rate in both the number of titles and books because of the radical reduction of computer-related books. In terms of each library's holdings, the number of Western language books held by top libraries has been increased with those published in 2013.

종래에 많이 사용된 각양의 계측 방법을 일일이 설명하는 것은 본 해설의 목적이 아니기 때문에 개략적으로 분류하여 설명하면 다음과 같다. 1) 시간 평균유속은 주로 프로브(probe)를 경유하여 동압과 정압의 측정에 의하여 수행되어 왔다. 연소반응이 있으면 밀도의 변화가 있게 되는데 밀도는 후술하는 농도의 계측과 온도의 계측에 의하여 정해져 동압과 정압으로부터 유속으로 변환된다. 시간분해능이 높은 비접촉식(직접 프 로브를 측정부에 삽입하지 않는 방법) 유속측정이 가능한 방법으로는 레이저 도플러 유속계 (Laser Doppler Velocimetry, 이하 LDV로 표현)를 들 수 있다. LDV는 압력측정에 의한 유속 산출법에서와 같은 온도 및 농도 등의 부수적인 계측이 필요없이, 직접 유속을 검출할 수 있으며 또한 검정이 필요없는 절대유속 측정이 가능하며 현재 연소반응이 있는 흐름에 대한 대부분의 연구에 적용되고 있는 실정이다. 2) 시간평균 화학종 농도측정에 가장 많이 쓰이는 방법은, 연소가스를 채취하여 가스 크로마토 그라프(Gas Chromatograph)로 분석하는 것을 들 수 있다. 한편, 시간 분해능이 높은 화학종 농 도의 계측은 레이저를 사용하여 각 화학종의 발광, 산란 및 흡수성을 이용, 측정한다. 3) 온도측정은 대부분 열전대를 사용하고 있다. 그러나 이 방법은 직접 프로브를 삽입해야 하므로 사용한계의 범위가 지극히 좁으며, 연소반응이 일어나므로 프로브 자체의 촉매반응 및 복사 열전달에 의한 보정 등이 사용상 큰 문제로 제기된다. 그러나 최근 레이저 이용기술의 발달로 (2)항에서의 농도 계측과 같이 반응기체의 온도 및 성분의 동시측정이 가능한 방법도 점차 현 실화 되어가고 있다. 그 대표적인 예로 CARS법(Coherent Anti-Stokes Raman Spectroscopy)을 들 수 있다. 이상으로부터 연소반응이 일어나는 흐름에서의 각종 계측에서는, 비접촉 측정의 가능성과 시간 공간 분해능의 특징으로 미루어 앞으로는 레이저를 이용한 계측 방법이 그 주류를 이룰 것으로 사료된다. 우선 본 해설은 기체의 온도 및 농도의 광학적 측정방법중 Raman산란광 검출법에 대하여 실제로 측정하는 입장에서 간단히 소개한다.

현재 디스플레이 시장은 LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), PDP (Plasma Display Panel) 등과 같이 평판 디스플레이가 주류를 이루고 있으며 현재에는 기존의 디스플레이와는 달리 잘 휘어지고 높은 투과성을 가지는 플렉시블 디스플레이에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 하지만 이러한 플렉시블 디스플레이에 사용되는 플라스틱 기판의 경우 용제에 대한 화학적 저항성 및 기계적인 안정성이 취약한 점과 대기중의 수분이나 산소가 플라스틱 기판을 통하여 소자내로 침투하게 되어 금속전극을 산화시키거나 기포 또는 흑점 등과 같은 비 발광 영역이 확산되어 소자의 수명을 단축시키는 치명적인 단점을 가진다. 이에 본 실험에서는 고밀도 플라즈마 형성이 가능하고 저온공정이 가능한 FTS (Facing Target Sputtering) 장비를 이용하여 Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) 기판위에 낮은 수분 투과율 또는 산소 투과율을 갖는 양질의 무기 산화막을 적층하기 위해 저 투습도 및 기계적인 경도 향상을 위한 비 반응성 박막으로 $Al_20_3$층을 Ar분위기에서 증착하였고 그 위에 박막의 stress 감소, 유연성 향상을 위한 반응성 박막으로 Al을 Ar과 $O_2$를 비율별로 증착하여 비교 실험하였다. 이와 같이 제작된 무기산화막들을 Uv- spectrophotometer를 이용하여 광학적 특성을 조사한 결과 가시광 영역에서 모두 80% 이상의 높은 투과율을 나타내었으며, 그 외 XRD (X-ray Diffraction)를 사용하여 결정성을 확인, SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), AFM (Atomic Force Microscope)을 이용하여 박막의 구조와 표면향상 및 표면조도를 측정한 결과 모든 박막에서 밀집도가 좋으며 거칠기가 작은 것으로 확인되었다. 마지막으로 수분 투과율(WVTR)을 알아보기 위해 Mocon (Permatran W3/31)장비를 이용하여 측정한 결과 $1.0{\sim}3.0{\times}10^{-3}g/m{\cdot}day$의 낮은 수분 투과율을 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 측정 결과로 볼 때 향후 FTS 장비를 이용하여 양질의 플라즈마를 형성하여 알루미늄 무기산화막을 이용한 고밀도 다층막을 형성하면 더욱 낮은 수분투과율을 갖는 가스차단막을 제작할 수 있을 것으로 보여지며 반도체 소자 및 디바이스의 Pachaging으로도 사용가능 할 것이라 사료된다. 본 연구는 한국산업기술진흥원에서 지원하는 2011년도 지역산업기술개발사업의 연구수행으로 인한 결과물임을 밝힙니다.

In archival discourse, social memory has been discussed for some time. Despite this, however, theoretical studies have not been prolific at all in the Korean archival community. Many Western scholars have argued that archivists should consider memory rather than records for archival preservation because the inclusiveness of the former will fill the gaps in the latter. Social memory that is shared and transmitted across generations in society would include the stories of marginalized groups of people who are often neglected in official documents. Archivists can reconstruct the diverse narratives of a variety of social groups based on social memory, and this would be their social responsibility. In this sense, it is archivists who exercise power regarding how history will be written in the future because they determine what would be preserved in archives: mainstream culture with official records or a broader spectrum of diverse stories of people in society. From this perspective, this paper intends to understand how memory is discussed in archival discourse and to review how archives and history are associated with memory in theories and practices.

This study explores legislation process of Disability Discrimination Act in S. Korea focusing on social exclusion and participation through social action approach. I can find a thing in common in that both of disability and social exclusion are concerned with the relationship between majority and minority. Therefore we need to lay emphasis on the social model of disability to overcome social exclusion. When we explore the legislation process of Disability Discrimination Act, we recognize that the legislation is mainly due to a great deal of effort of the disabled, especially the Disability Discrimination Act Solidarity of Korea. So researchers need to focus on the social action approach to overcome social exclusion. In addition social workers have to analyze the macrosystem as well as microsystem to overcome the social exclusion of the disabled. Besides the course of macro practice should include the community organization skills focused on the social action approach.

Understanding individuals who consume content on OTT platforms is crucial for media operators and marketers due to the dominance of OTT services in the global media market. This study compared socio-demographic and personality characteristics of OTT non-users and users, and tested these characteristics impact on usage time of OTT services. Cross-sectional data from 9,686 respondents aged 13 and above that extracted from the 2022 Korean Media Panel Survey were analyzed, revealing significant differences between the groups in gender, age, education level, income level, employment status, openness to experience, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism. Moreover, gender, age, education level, income level, employment status, conscientiousness, extraversion, and agreeableness influenced usage time of OTT service. The findings expected to be valuable data that media operators and marketing practitioners can refer to when formulating strategies that consider the characteristics of users.

Developments of radioprotective agents are important issues for minimizing the troubles and the effective treatments in radiotherapy. But few agents are useful in clinical and practical fields. It was shown that trace elements in alcohol beverages might have radioprotective effect. In this study, the types of cell death of lymphocytes according to the commercial alcohol beverage was investigated. Normal healthy volunteers ingested distilled water, beer or soju containing $81.5mg{\cdot}dl^{-1}$ ethyl ahcohol, respectively. After 2 hours, their blood were sampled with their consents. Fraction of lymphocytes was isolated by density gradient method with Histopaque-1077 (Sigma) and irradiated with dose from 0.5 to 5 Gy. After 60 hour incubation, the cells were harvested and analysed by flow cytometry. Cell viability was decreased by dose dependent manner. Cell viability of beer group was reduced about 15% compared with control group. Apoptosis in soju group was reduced about 20% compared with control group. Apoptosis of beer and control groups are similar. Necrosis of soju group significantly increased about 35% compared with control group. Early apoptosis of beer group was increased compared with control group. Early apoptosis of soju group was decreased about 25% compared with control group. Late apoptosis of beer and control group was increased by dose dependent manner. Late apoptosis of soju group was increased about 20-30% compared with control group. Late apoptosis of soju was increased and the radioprotective effect of soju was minimal because late apoptosis induced the cell necrosis. In case of soju trace elements, total cell apoptosis was decreased about 20% and early cell apoptosis was remarkably low. In this case, mitotic cells death may be dominant mechanism. Therefore, trace elements in soju may not be effective radioprotective agents.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the alcohol volume consumed and alcohol dependancy according to multiple rounds of drinking. Sectional data collected in 2012 as part of an International Alcohol Control Study were used, and 855 of 1,789 drinker aged 19 to 64 were conducted. The proportion of multiple rounds drinking were significantly higher in males(χ²=37.607, p<.001), students(χ²=52.466, p<.001), single(χ²=34.205, p<.001), smoking experience and stressed(χ²=40,09, p<.001; χ²=21.66, p<.001) among drinkers. In particular, the alcohol volume consumed of unmarried people, smokers, and stress groups were significantly higher than married people, non-smokers and no-stress group. The highest alcohol intake in the first, 2nd and third rounds was found in bars in the liquor trade (F=67.8g, p<0.001). The total alcohol intake increased as the number of rounds increased (F=209.993, p=0.001) and the number of drinkers who tested positive for alcohol dependency increased, using the tests RAPS4 and DSM-IV(F=129.836, p<0.001; F=94.669, p<0.001). The OR of alcohol dependancy in males was 2.3(95% CI: 1.745-3.057), unemployed was 3.2(95% CI: 1.053-9.838), smokers was 3.9(95% CI: 1.230-12.292), and stress group was 2.1(95% CI: 1.561-2.768) compared to females, employed, non-smokers, and no-stress group respectively. In conclusion, it suggests that those consuming multiple rounds drinking can become more vulnerable to alcohol harms due to its relation to smoking, stress and increased dependence on alcohol.
