The current study investigated delinquent school- dropout adolescents and general dropouts' differences in individual, social factors and experiences after school dropout. Data was collected through a nationwide survey(N=209) from dropout adolescents. Findings reveal that gender, age, disabilities, work experience parent cohabitation, and residential area were significant in the individual factor. Dropout time, social agency, school return experience, and GED exam pass were significant in the social factors. Groups showed differences in experiences after dropout, and self evaluation while the general group had needs for vocational education. Dropouts wanted to go back to school. Implications such as focusing on differences of each group and developing various education system and policies are needed. Limitations and implications of the study are discussed.

종속 관측중단(dependent censoring)이 카이제곱 형태의 적합도 검정에 어떻게 영향을 미치고 종속도와 관측중단된 정도에 따라 검정의 오류와 검정력이 변화하는 형태를 시뮬레이션을 통해 경험적으로 알아보았다. Sakar(1987)가 제안한 이변량 지수분포로부터 종속 관측중단된 자료를 만들어 Kim(1993)이 제안한 방법과 Akritas(1988)가 제안한 적합도의 검정방법을 적용하였다. 전체적으로 Kim(1993)의 검정법이 더 효과적이었으며 관측 중단된 정도가 클 때는 중속도에 따라 검정의 오류와 검정력이 무척 크게 변하였다.

Individual donors that are the social and financial base of organization finance are divided into prospect, current donors and lapsed donors. This study might be the first efforts in Korea, to reveal the characteristics and behavior of lapsed donors. We found that major reasons of giving lapse were financial inabilities and interest of other cause. However, many lapsed donors didn't give any more but moved to another nonprofit organization for donation. Moreover, their trust of ex-nonprofit organization has effected their decision to donate to other nonprofit organizations again or not. Therefore, donor services that improve donors' trust is important to maintain nonprofit sector' donor basis.

This study is a descriptive research to measure the awareness and attitude toward withdrawal of life-sustaining medical treatment (WLSMT) among medical and nursing students. The data collection was conducted between 8 October and 15 November 2018, and the responses of 240 students were analyzed. The analysis results are as follows. More than 95 percent of medical and nursing students said the WLSMT was necessary. The medical students answered that 'patient's will' is important and nursing student answered that 'patient and family's will' is important. The nursing student showed that "family will and decision" was more important than the medical student in deciding to discontinue life care. Based on the results of the study, continuous discussion on the development and application of education programs to form attitudes and awareness of the discontinuation of life-saving treatments based on correct values is needed for prospective medical students and nursing students.

We empirically investigate the determinants of a firm's exit from exporting, using Korean manufacturing firm-level data for the period from 2006 to 2014. Specifically, we estimate the effects of not only firm-level and industry-level characteristics, but also macroeconomic variables on the probability that a firm stops exporting by applying a Complementary Log-Log Model analysis. The results of our estimation suggest that firm-level heterogeneity, such as workforce size, capital intensity, intangible assets and foreign ownership, industry-level variation, such as the labor displacement rate, and macroeconomic variables, such as domestic demand and world demand, significantly affect the possibility of a firm ceasing exports. Also, we show that market interest rates increase the possibility of an export cessation and that the effects of market interest rates are more pronounced on firms with a higher debt ratio. In the primary exporting industries, the probability of a firm ceasing exports decreases as productivity at the firm rises.

This study viewed schools as a cause of students dropping out and posited that dropping out of high school would vary depending on the characteristics and influencing factors of the school from which students were dropping out. Therefore, focusing on schools, we longitudinally investigated the change patterns of school dropout across high schools in the country, and the types of changes in dropping out of high school. In addition, we predicted the general characteristics of schools according to the type of school students were dropping out from, looked at the changes in the major factors (i.e., school violence and school counseling) affecting school dropout, and reviewed schools' long-term efforts and outcomes in relation to school dropout. For this purpose, KERIS EDSS's "Secondary School Information Disclosure Data" were used. The final model included data collected five years20122016) from high schools across the country. The results were as follows. First, in order to examine the longitudinal change patterns of dropping out of high schools, a latent growth models analysis was conducted, and it revealed that, as time passed, the dropout rate decreased. Second, growth mixture modeling was used to explore types according to the change patterns of the school students were dropping out from. The results showed three types: the "remaining in school" type, the "gradually decreasing school dropout" type, and the "increasing school dropping out". Third, the multinomial logistic regression was conducted to predict the general characteristics of schools by type. The results showed that public schools, vocational schools, and schools with a large number of students who have below the basic levels in Korean, English and mathematics were more likely to belong to the "increasing school dropout" type. Further, the larger the total number of students, the higher the probability of belonging to the "remaining in school" type or the "gradually decreasing school dropout" type. Lastly, growth mixture modeling was used to analyze the trend of school violence and school counseling according to the three types. The focus was on the "gradually decreasing school dropout" type. In the case of the "gradually decreasing school dropout" type, it was found that as time passed, the number of school violence cases and the number of offenders gradually decreased. In addition, in terms of change in school counseling the results revealed that the number of placement of professional counselors in schools increased every year and peer counseling was continuously promoted, which may account for the "gradually decreasing school dropout" type.

In life-testing experiments, in which the longest time an experimental unit is on test is not a failure time, but rather a censored observation. For the situation the Kaplan-Meier estimator is known to be a baised estimator of the survival function. Several modifications of the Kaplan-Meier estimator are examined and compared with bias and mean squared error.

최근 비전통적 성인 학습자가 새로운 입학자원으로 주목받고 있으며, 그중에서도 만학도의 대학 진학률은 급격히 상승하는 추세다. 이에 따라 이들이 대학생활을 무사히 마칠 수 있도록, 즉 학업중단이 발생하지 않도록 대학에서는 다양한 측면에서 방안을 골몰해야 하는 상황이다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제의식에 기반하여, 비전통적 학습자의 학업중단을 저지할 방안을 창업지원 측면에서 살펴보고자 하였다. 이는 학업능력, 성별, 교우관계 등을 중점적으로 살펴보는 기존 연구에서 더 나아가 창업지원이라는 새로운 요인과의 관계성을 만학도의 입장에서 심층적으로 살펴봄으로써 연구의 차별성을 강조한다. 본 연구는 대학 입학 이후 학교의 창업지원을 받은 경험이 있는 만 30세 이상의 만학도 총 10명을 대상으로 심층인터뷰를 진행하여, 학교의 창업지원이 학업중단을 저지하는 데 영향을 주었는지를 살펴보고자 한다. 또한 그 과정에서 이들이 느낀 감정과 태도, 가치 등을 근거이론을 통해 분석하여 학업중단을 저지할 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 만학도는 전통적 학습자와 달리 졸업 이후 인생2모작을 준비하는 경우가 상당수기에, 이들의 니즈를 명확하게 파악하는 일은 시대적 흐름을 반영한 기초연구로서 학교의 정책적 대안을 마련하기 위한 기반이 될 수 있다.
