  • Purpose: To investigate audiometery and characteristics related to tinnitus in tinnitus patients, and to understand the relationship between the discomfort of tinnitus and the quality of life. Methods: The subjects were 110 patients with tinnitus. The data were collected using tinnitus handicap questionnaire, quality of life, and pure tone audiometry, which measured hearing level in dB and frequency in Hz matching of tinnitus. Results: Majority of tinnitus patients (75.5%~81.8%) had normal auditory sensation. but 82.7% of patients indicated that they have heard tinnitus "frequently" or "always", and the major sounds of tinnitus were "wing, wung, wang". The matching sounds of tinnitus had various range in hearing level(dB) and frequency(Hz). Tinnitus patients reported moderate levels of the discomfort of tinnitus and the quality of life, and there were negative correlation between the discomfort of tinnitus and the quality of life(r=-.314, p<.001). Conclusion: These findings suggest that special attention is needed for tinnitus patients because the physical, psychological, and social impacts of tinnitus could be decrease their quality of life. Specialized nursing intervention considering specific conditions related to tinnitus is required to solve various health problems of tinnitus patients.

  • This study the awareness and the demands of the parents on the communication level for social participation of the youth with developmental disability were identified and investigated the relation on client's age, detection time of the condition, disability grades, handicapped types, speech therapy period. For the non-parametric test, Man-Whitney U test, and Kruskal-Wallis test were performed and for post-hoc test, Scheffe test was performed. The results of this study was that the significant difference was found in the awareness and the demand of the communication level of the youth with developmental disability according to the age of children, time of discovery, disability grade, type of disability and speech therapy period. In conclusion, the speech therapy for the youth with developmental disability should be made in the dimension of communication for the purpose of social participation. The follow-up research to emphasize the social support and the institutional backup will be required.

  • Private universities are going through difficulties in improving facilities for the disabled students due to financial reasons. Extension elevators, grips on both sides of the hallways for the visually disabled, handrails on the walls of ramps and stairs in the existing building, and improvement of the dormitory chambers are some items of such facilities in this analysis of MyongJi University. Hence, financial support based on the long-term plans and evaluations from the National Treasury to private universities with financial stringencies, will be a critical promotion in appropriating educational budgets and executing corresponding funds. This will eventually bring equal development of educational welfare for the disabled students among national, public, and private universities.

  • In this paper, a path restoration method independent of failure location in all-optical networks is proposed and its wavelength requirements are calculated. In the proposed method, since a single backup wavelength is used for any link failure, a node can consist of only fixed wavelength transmitters, resulting in the levels node cost. Hence, restoration process can be triggered just after the failure detection, if combined with edge-disjoint path restoration method. This feature and the parallel cross-connection message transfer technique proposed in this paper make the restoration process faster. Also, it is shown the wavelength requirements in the proposed method are similar to the ones in the method using tunable backup wavelength, resulting in little increment for transmission cost.

  • The author presents clinical study for 111 cases of tinnitus with pure tone audiometry from Jan. 1, 1978 to Dec. 31, 1980 in department of otolaryngology, Ewha Womans University Hospital. The results were as follows; 1) Male to Female ratio was as 1 : 1, and peak age incidence was in the age group of 21 to 30. 2) Most frequent duration was 1 month to 1 year in the cases of the tinnitus. 3) The patient who complained tinnitus only was 10.0% and the patient who complained tinnitus with hearing impairment was 72.0% in the cases of tinnitus. 4) The affected site in the tinnitus, in order of frequency were; Both ear 38.7% Left ear 32.4% Right ear 28.9% 5) The drum finding, in order frequency were; Normal 48.0% Retraction 33.1% Perforation 8.4% 6) The degree of hearing loss in the audiometry were; Normal 29.2% Moderate severe 22.7% 7) The shape of hearing impairments were; High tone loss 46.9% Flat 33.0% Low tone loss 11.9% 8) The occurrence of $C_{5}$ dip was 11.0% in cases of the tinnitus. 9) The classification of hearing loss were; Sensorineural hearing loss 46.9% Mixed hearing loss 33.1 % Conductive hearing loss 20.1%

  • Recently, as voluntary activity has become more widespread, there have been some voluntary activity movements in the provision of library services for people with disabilities. This study aimed to develop a model on voluntary activity in library services for disabled people in public libraries. Survey data collected through three data collection methods showed that volunteer activities in public library services for the disabled were very poor, and recommended the training of library staff and volunteers serving disabled people, the management of educational programs for librarians about the disabled and the dissemination of standardized manuals. From the results of the survey, a voluntary activity model, based on three factors, the aims of library services, the types of the disabilities, and volunteer services including specific sub areas of services, was developed. Finally, this voluntary activity model will contribute to the theory development of library services for the disabled

  • 전력계통을 감시하고 운영하는 핵심설비인 EMS는 다양한 서버들과 통신장치, 보안장치 및 환경설비 등으로 구성되어 있다. 이들 설비는 네트워크 망에서 데이터를 상호교환하면서 고유의 역할을 수행하며, 특정 설비의 장애는 시스템 전체에 혼란상황을 가져올 수 있다. 따라서 EMS를 구성하는 각종 설비들을 종합하여 실시간으로 감시하는 시스템이 필요하며, 이는 운용자에게 장애발생을 신속히 통보함으로서 시스템의 빠른 복구를 가능하게 한다. 아울러 실시간으로 감시한 시스템 성능데이터를 데이터베이스화함으로서 과거 성능을 분석하고 미래의 사용 추이를 예측할 수 있다. 이처럼 EMS 고유 특징을 고려한 감시시스템을 구축하기 위해서는 다양한 통신 프로토콜을 수용할 수 있는 통합 어댑터 모듈을 개발, 감시시스템에 수용하여야 한다.
