This study examines multi-level factors geographic proximities between elderly parents and their children in the United States and Japan. Despite their similar economies, the United States and Japan show a significant difference in their patterns of generational proximity. In 1993, half of US non-Hisapnic white parents aged 70 or over lived separately but within 10 miles of their nearest children and a majority of them lived far from their non-nearest children. The family geographic network for Japanese elderly parents is more hierarchial. In 1989, 74 percent of Japanese parents aged 70 and over lived with their nearest children but most of them lived far from their non-nearest children. To explain this distinctive pattern of inter- and intra-family differences in generational proximities in the two societies, this study employs a multi-level analysis which compares the relative importance of life course conditions of elderly parents and their children and economic and ecological characteristics of elderly parent's places of residence in influencing generational proximities.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate prospectively the effect of different bonding systems and retention grooves on the clinical performance of resin restorations in non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs). Thirty-nine healthy adults who had at least 2 NCCLs in their premolar areas were included in this study. One hundred and fifty teeth were equally assigned to six groups: (A) Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (SBMP, 3M ESPE, St. Paul, MN, USA, 4th generation bonding system) without retention grooves; (B) SBMP with retention grooves; (C) BC Plus (Vericom Co., Anyang, Gyeonggido, Korea, 5th generation bonding system) without retention grooves; (D) BC Plus with retention grooves; (E) Adper Prompt (3M ESPE, Seefeld, Germany, 6th generation bonding system) without retention grooves; (F) Adper Prompt with retention grooves. All cavities were filled with a hybrid composite resin. Denfil (Vericom Co., Anyang, Gyeonggido, Korea) by one operator. Restorations were evaluated at baseline and at 6-month recall, according to the modified USPHS (United States Public Health Service) criteria. Additionally, clinical photographs were taken and epoxy resin replicas were made for SEM evaluation. At 6-month recall, there were some differences in the number of alpha ratings among the experimental groups. But, despite the differences in the number of alpha ratings, there was no significant difference among the 3 adhesive systems (p < 0.05). There was also no significant difference between the groups with or without mechanical retention (p < 0.05). Follow-ups for longer periods than 6 months are needed to verify the clinical performance of different bonding systems and retention grooves.

This paper examines the changes in family values in Korea by examining values of children, socialization values, and social support of elderly parents with young and olders mothers. A total of 314 mothers of infants (young mothers) and 395 mothers of adolescents (older mothers) completed a questionnaire compiled by Schwarz, Chakkarath, Trommsdorff, Schwenk and Nauck(2001) comprising of values of children, cultural values, socialization values, interpersonal relationship, social support, stress, and life-satisfaction. In terms of values of children, the older mothers are more likely to emphasize social values, such as continuing the family line. Young mothers are more likely to emphasize psychological values, such as the pleasure of seeing a child grow. As for reasons for net wanting to have children, young mothers are more likely to point out personal constraints than older mothers, such as restriction of freedom. Second, older mothers are more likely than young mothers to express willingness to provide support for their children and even when their children become adults. Older mothers had a more lenient expectation of their children in terms developmental timetable and to expect support from their children when compared with young mothers. Young mothers are more likely to socialize their children with greater warmth and at the same time have higher child-rearing stress when compared to older mothers. Third, when compared with older mothers, young mothers are more likely to receive practical and emotional support from their parents. On the other hand, older mothers are more likely to provide greater practical and emotional support to their parents than the young mothers. Overall, compared to young mothers, older mothers are more likely to hold traditional and conservative values of children and socialization values. These contrasting values reflect the changes in family structure and social change that have been progressing rapidly in recent years.

In order to provide basic information for the application of tissue culture to a rice breeding program. experiments were carried out on the callus formation from seedings and anthers and organ differentiation from the callus of rice varieties and their hybrids. It appeared that in general the callus tissue was more easily induced in japonicas than in indicas with significant varietal differences. A highly significant positive correlation (r=0.896$^{**}$) was obtained between the fresh weight of callus induced in NAA medium and in 2, 4-D medium in the same variety. Callus formed on the medium with 2, 4-D was more friable than that formed on the medium with NAA. The callus formation from seedlings was better than from anthers in upland rice varieties. The easiness of the callus formation appeared to be a dominant character in crosses of rice varieties. Varietal difference was also noticed in the organ differentiation from the callus and the root differentiation seemed to be easier than the shoot differentiation. Most of the plants derived from the cal1us were albinos and the frequency of occurrence of albinos was greater in callus of seedlings than in that of anthers. Greater amount of callus tissue was formed from anthers of $F_1$ plants than anyone of their parents in remote-crosses but it was clear in close-crosses. A highly significant positive correlation (r=0.504$^{**}$) was found between the callus formation from seedlings and from anthers.

Seasonal occurrence of persimmon bark borer moth, Euzophera batangensis, and attractiveness of its sex pheromone gland components and trap types were studied at sweet (non-astringent) persimmon orchards of two southern provinces of Gyeongsangnam-do and Jeollanam-do, Korea, from 2014 to 2016. E. batangensis occurred three times a year. Occurrences of the moths of the over-wintered, the $1^{st}$ and the $2^{nd}$ generations were early April to late May, early June to late July, and early August to mid October, respectively. The (Z9,E12)-tetradeca-9,12-dien-1-ol (Z9,E12-14OH) was more attractive than (Z)-tetradec-9-en-1-ol (Z9-14OH). The Z9,E12-14OH was equally attractive to the 9:1 binary mixture of Z9,E12-14OH and Z9-14OH to the male moths. The three trap types of funnel, white and red delta traps had no effect on the attractiveness of the components.

The growth characteristics of Paecilomyces tenuipes according to the passage in the two kind of liquid media were investigated by comparing the mycelium and conidium formation degrees. The potato dextrose broth medium and the silkworm larvae medium containing the silkworm powder were used as the liquid media, and the potato dextrose agar medium and the brown rice medium containing the powder of silkworm pupa were used as the solid media. The conidium formation degree in liquid media differed by the passages but that in solid media was not. This suggested that the passage in liquid media did not affect significantly the conidium formation in solid media. When the brown rice media were inoculated with the concentration of $1{\times}10^{10}$ conidia/ml, $1{\times}10^8$ conidia/ml and $1{\times}10^6$ conidia/ml, respectively, the conidium formation degrees were similar. This indicated that the optimal inoculation concentration of conidium to the brown rice media is $1{\times}10^6$ conidia/ml.

Since the Korean retail industry was made accessible to the big conglomerates and foreign retail companies, local traditional markets have faced serious problems. To sustain the local traditional markets' survival, the Korean government established various remedial policies for addressing, and many scholars published articles to suggest how to find solutions to, the problem. Unfortunately, the results have not been satisfactory. The purpose of this study is to find another way to help the Korean traditional retail market, from the view point of the Green Growth Policy, an initiative designed to address environmentally balanced economic growth in Korea. In order to survive and to maintain sustainable growth, it is incumbent upon retailers in the traditional market to understand the concept of the Green Growth Policy. A survey was conducted as a means of testing the degree of awareness of the Green Growth Policy, as well as determining the relationship between the degree of awareness and the degree of organizational commitment by the retailers in the local traditional markets. Interestingly, we were able to detect some of the features (e.g., they were distinguished by the elderly and the young, as well as low level of education and high level of education) in the traditional market retailers' demographic characteristics. We utilized the analysis of variance (ANOVA) statistical method to simultaneously compare the differences in retailers' demographic characteristics; the results were as follows: Overall, the results showed that the awareness of the Green Growth Policy, the degree of trust in the government's policy, levels of self-efficacy, and levels of organizational commitment were higher with the older traditional market retailers than the younger traditional market retailers. Specifically, the degree of trust in government policies (F=9.964,p < .05), levels of self-efficacy (F=5.532,p < .05), and levels of organizational commitment (F=5.697,p < .05) were statistically significant. Moreover, in the portion of the study that addressed the difference between education levels, all the variables were averaged in the higher education category of the traditional market retailers. Specifically, awareness levels of the Green Growth Policy (F=8.564,p < .005) and levels of self-efficacy (F=6.754,p < .005) were statistically significant. These results revealed that the traditional market retailers' demographic characteristics should be considered important factors in order to realize their policy. The results of the study showed the following: 1) The degree of awareness of the government's Green Growth Policy was statistically significant as it related to traditional market retailers' organizational commitment. 2) The degree of trust of the government's policy was significantly moderated between the awareness of the government's Green Growth Policy and the traditional market retailers' organizational commitment. This result demonstrates that the traditional market retailers' awareness of the government's Green Growth Policy will show more organizational commitment with higher levels of trust of the government's policy. 3) It also revealed that traditional market retailers' self-efficacy was fully mediated between the awareness of the Green Growth Policy of the government and traditional market retailers' organizational commitment. The results suggest that the government should show an interest in showing traditional market retailers how to enhance their traditional markets. Implications and future research directions are also discussed.

These experiments were conducted to study the relationship among agronomic traits, varietal variation of grain-filling periods and the effect of environmental conditions on the grain-filling in the ten selected barley cultivars. The varietal variation of grain-filling periods was of significance: Tokak had the similar increment in both greenhouse and field plot, Suweon two row was believed to be an cultivar with short grainfilling period. Cultivars with higher grain-filling rates tended to. have significantly lower ash content. Ash content of a cultivar tended to be lower when grown under favorable condition. At maturity, the time of development of yellow or dark pigment at the crease base could be a possible criterion for physiological maturity determination. However, this requires further study. Average grain-filling period in the different conditions was constant, but varietal differences were 9 days in the greenhouse and 5 days in the field. The grain moisture content was not constant in accordance to both cultivars and growing conditions. Average accelerated days for heading and ripening periods were very constant in comparision with field and vinyl mulching suggests that the selected materials will be useful for genetic study on grain-filling periods. The cultivars and grown conditions with higher accumulated temperature per $100^{\circ}C$ from early grain-filling had larger grain-filling rates and heavier 1000 grain weight. This study showed that if the variation among and within cultivars is to be minimized, the greenhouse and vinyl mulching plots could be useful for genetic study on grain-filling periods in $BC_1$ and $F_2$ segregation.

The regulation of the game industry by the Korean government is closely related to the specific regulatory behavior from their parents' generation regarding gaming behavior of their children. This is because there exists a gap in terms of digital culture experience between parents and children. This study examined the differences in how moral values affect the awareness or perceptions of the game users. In the results, the norm conformity was found to have a negative influence on the fondness for game users. Age was also shown to have a negative influence on the fondness for the game users. Based on these findings, we also found the mediating effect of age existed specifically with regard to the relation of norm conformity and the fondness for the game users. The results suggest that the game industry promotion policies of Korea should change their existing targets from focusing on everyone to just the elderly.
