Currently, development of environmental index has been an increasingly important issue to achieve sustainable development, providing critical information to policy-makers. In particular, marine environmental composite index for Korea is widely required to establish. This paper constructs a marine environmental composite index using the OECD pressure-state-response (PSR) framework and employing multi-attribute utility theory (MAUT). The PSR framework links human activities as a pressure to environmental state and policy response. Weights are calculated by the MAUT technique. The paper provides annual pressure, state, response indices, and state index by sea area from 1991 to 2001 in Korea. The implications of the results and application plan of the index are also discussed.

유역의 수자원 및 환경 상태에 관련된 문제를 파악하고 관리에 적극적인 참여를 유도하기 위해서는 객관적인 평가수단이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 지속가능한 유역관리를 위하여 수계의 중권역별 유역관리 상태를 평가할 수 있는 평가지수를 개발하고 지수의 적용성을 평가하였다. 본 연구에서는 유역조사 자료와 다변량 통계 기법의 하나인 요인분석을 이용하여 유역관리 평가지수를 개발하였다. 또한, 평가지수를 한강수계에 적용하여 중권역별 유역관리 상태를 상대적으로 비교하여 평가하였다. 유역관리 평가지수는 이수관리 평가 세부지수, 치수관리 평가 세부 지수, 수질 및 생태 관리 평가 세부 지수로 구성하였다. 각 평가지수는 요인분석을 통하여 추출된 3개의 지표로 구성이 되어 있으며, 각 지표들은 $3{\sim}5$개의 변수들로 구성되어 있다. 한강수계의 중권역별 유역관리 상태를 평가한 결과, 댐상류에 위치한 중권역에서 다른 중권역들 보다 유역관리지수가 높게 나타났으며, 수계의 최하류에 위치한 중권역에서 다른 유역들 보다 작은 값을 나타냈다.

Pavement evaluation is a fundamental component for rational pavement management. Optimal rehabilitation method and the priority of rehabilitation should be based on the evaluation data. Some types of pavement condition index are needed for objective evaluation of Pavement condition and management of road network. In this study a expressway concrete pavement condition index model is developed through regression analysis that correlates panel rating with distress measurement from the test sections. The derived condition index can be used for network level PMS for the expressway concrete pavement. Correlation coefficient of the model was 0.68. The selected independent variables were International Roughness Index, crack and area of patching.

콘크리트 교량을 저렴하고 신속하게 상태 평가를 하기 위하여 성능 지수(Performance Index)를 제안한다. 이 기법은 육안 검사에 의하여 발견된 결함의 범위와 심각도를 사용하여 콘크리트 교량의 전반적인 상태를 신속하게 등급화 하고 콘크리트 교량의 노출 조건을 고려하여 콘크리트 성능을 정량적으로 평가한다. 또한 본 연구에서는 상기한 성능 지수 기법의 타당성을 증명할 수 있는 정밀 안전 진단 시험결과를 활용하여 6개의 주요 노후화 원인을 고려하는 또 다른 성능 지수를 제안한다. 이러한 두 상태 평가 방법이 영국의 실제 교량 상태 평가 자료를 바탕으로 한 상태 평가 결과를 퍼지 집합 이론(fuzzy set theory)으로 분석한 결과와 비교하여 방법의 정당성 및 신뢰성을 논의한다.

Formulation of quasi-dynamic wetness index was derived to predict the spatial and temporal distribution of the soil moisture. The algorithm of dynamic wetness index was developed through introducing the convolution integral with the rainfall input. The spatial and temporal behaviors of the wetness index of the Sulmachun Watershed was calculated using the digital elevation model(DEM) and the rainfall data for two years. The spatial distribution of the dynamic wetness index shows most dispersive feature of flow generation among the three assumptions of steady, quasi-dynamic and dynamic. The statistical distribution of the quasi-dynamic wetness index and the dynamic wetness index approximate to the steady state wetness index as the time step is increased. The dynamic wetness index shows mixed distribution of the normalized probability density function.

To find out the effects of ginsenosides to some parameters of the haemodynamic and gas exchange depending to the autonomic nervous system - and to border it against the psychosomatic nervous ways was the idea of these studies. The lot of the effects are very differentiated, so that we have to find out the special ginsenoside receptors in that system.

The purpose of this study was to examine association between oral health status and perceived general health symptom. We analyzed 14,231 subjects who participated in Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2007~2009). All individuals were examined by a questionnaire about socioeconomic history, smoking and drinking habit, the frequency of daily tooth brushing, the presence of regular dental visit, and EuroQol-5D. Dental survey was conducted to find the decayed, missing, and filled teeth (DMFT) index and community periodontal index. Subjects with perceived problem with mobility had higher DMFT index (odds ratio, 1.18, p<0.001). Subjects with with perceived problem with pain/discomfort had higher DMFT index (odds ratio, 1.16, p<0.001). Self-rating general health symptom was not associated with periodontitis (p>0.05). Perceived general health was associated with DMFT index. It is recommendable that we can use the perceived general health to predict oral health status.

The purpose of this study was to verify the factors influencing the happiness index for elderly patients hospitalized in nursing hospitals with a structural model. A survey was conducted on 237 people in 6 nursing hospitals in G city from July 1 to August 15, 2018, and analyzed with SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 programs. As a result of the research, the direct effect on the happiness index is the greatest factor, Next, perceived health status, economic status, and nursing satisfaction are in order, and the explanatory power is 66%. Both direct and indirect economic conditions were found to have a significant effect, and hospitalization period only had indirect effects through helplessness and nursing satisfaction. Therefore, development and application of various programs that can reduce the feeling of helplessness and improve the perceived health status. It is believed that an integrated management system, such as support system support and nursing intervention, suitable for each individual situation is needed.

In Korea, Expressway and National Highway System has been continually managed by their own pavement management system. The pavement condition evaluation system has not been developed for the municipal roads except for Seoul city. Therefore, this study focuses on analyzing the characteristics of distress in major city's pavement and developing the pavement condition index for the municipal PMS. Panel rating and pavement condition survey for the selected pavement sections were conducted for developing pavement condition index. Municipal level pavement condition index(MPCI) was developed by statistical analysis. Also, a sensitivity analysis for each independent variable of the MPCI and comparison with other pavement condition indicies, such as SPI and HPCI, were performed.

군집 유효화 평가란 기본적으로 클래스 (Class)에 대한 정보가 주어지지 않은 상태에서 다양한 입력 변수에 의해 발생되는 군집화의 결과들을 평가하여 그들 중에서 주어진 데이터 집합의 자연적인 분할 상태에 가장 적합한 결과를 찾는 기법을 말한다. 군집 유효화 평가에서 그 척도로 사용되는 것이 군집 유효화 지수이다. 본 논문에서는 우선 현존하는 다양한 군집 유효화 지수들 중에서 합 형식을 가지는 지수들을 다룬다. 구체적으로 이 지수들의 설계 원리와 각 지수들의 부합성 (Compliance) 분석한다. 다음으로 분석을 통해 밝혀진 그들의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 새로운 군집 유효화 지수들을 제안한다. 마지막으로 기존의 군집 유효화 지수들을 포함한 새로이 제안한 지수들의 성능을 실험 학습을 통해 평가한다.
