This study attempts to create a longitudinal dataset by linking tdata on the identical individuals across the monthly sample household management lists of the Economically Active Population Survey(EAPS) and the Household Income and Expenditure Survey(HIES). Using the data constructed through such process, the study also tryies to analyze the duration of longitudinal responses and the characteristics of nonrespondents. Between 1998 and 2002, longitudinal response rates had declined to 46% of total EAPS and 34% of total HIES. The fact that nonresponse was not a random phenomenon leads to concerns about the representativeness of the remaining sample. Using Cox's proportional hazard model the study revealed that the duration of longitudinal responses is affected by the ownership of house and the age of the respondent.

Recently, as part of the crime prevention measures that focus on spatial characteristics on the determinants of crime-causing, interest in crime prevention (CPTED) through environmental design has been increasing. This study analyzed crime vulnerabilities in Ulju-gun for the purpose of establishing a master plan for crime prevention urban design (CPTED). The 12 indicators, including demographic, socioeconomic, and physical factors, were sampled from prior studies. As a next step, statistical analysis resulted in criminal vulnerability indexes. According to the analysis, districts with a high demographic crime vulnerability indexes were concentrated on apartment complexes, while districts with high socio-economic crime vulnerability indexes have low land prices and high proportion of female population. Also, the districts with high physical crime vulnerability indexes were found to be heavily distributed commercial ones with a large number of entertainment places. However, there was a limit to generalizing the indicators of previous studies to local governments with different regional characteristics. Therefore, further studies should be carried out by establishing additional indicators considering regional characteristics in the future.
