South Korea's state health insurer, the National Health Insurance Service (NHIS), is in the process of a compensation suit against tobacco industry. The tobacco companies have habitually endeavored to ensure favorable outcomes in litigation by misusing scientific evidence or recruiting scientists to support its interests. This study analyzed strategies that tobacco companies have used during the NHIS litigation, which has been receiving world-wide attention. To understand the litigation strategies of tobacco companies, the present study reviewed the existing literature and carried out content analysis of petitions, preparatory documents, and supporting evidence submitted to the court by the NHIS and the tobacco companies during the suit. Tobacco companies misrepresented the World Health Organization (WHO) report's argument and misused scientific evidence, and removed the word "deadly" from the title of the citation. Tobacco companies submitted the research results of scientists who had worked as a consultant for the tobacco industry as evidence. Such litigation strategies employed by the tobacco companies internationally were applied similarly in Korean lawsuits. Results of tobacco litigation have a huge influence on tobacco control policies. For desirable outcomes of the suits, healthcare professionals need to pay a great deal of attention to the enormous volume of written opinions and supporting evidence that tobacco companies submit. They also need to face the fact that the companies engage in recruitment of scientists. Healthcare professionals should refuse to partner with tobacco industry, as recommended by Article 5.3 of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

The purpose of this study was to analysis characteristics and changes of epistemic thinking in middle school students on class-argument activities in an argument-based inquiry(ABI) science class. Data was collected from class recording video and activity worksheets of five subjects argument-based inquiry. Results of the analysis of student epistemic cognition characteristics show that experimental data was presented the most as evidence, and depending on the ABI activity, personal experience-based evidence and evidence based on scientific principles were used. As a result of analyzing the changes between claims made before and after class argumentations on five ABI activities in an argument-based inquiry science class, student claim modifications could be classified, according to reasons for the modification, into three types: correcting incorrect claims, clarifying unclear content, and expanding the concept.

Smart Phone with domestic demand increasing rapidly, the utilization of multimedia services have become diverse. Smart Phone users use the copyrighted multimedia contents illegally from hacking their Smart Phone with Jail Breaking and Rooting. Legal issues according to the Korea-U.S. FTA. and high relevance with crime as mobile communication terminal, the utilization of created and saved digital evidence is high, the mobile forensic evidence study is required. This paper studied method and notice of legal seizure and search assuming the Smart Phone copyright violation. Research the status of Smart Phone copyright violation and related violation by category as broadcasting, movies, music, e-book etc. Research the method of submit a report to the court by applying techniques to forensic. The results of this research will contribute to the provide of Smart Phone crime evidence and mobile forensic technology.

According to the capacity of hard disk drive is increasing day by day, the amount of data that forensic investigators should analyze is also increasing. This trend need tremendous time and effort in determining which files are important as evidence on computers. Using the file system APIs provided by Windows system is the easy way to identify those files. This method, however, requires a large amount of time as the number of files increase and changes the access time of files. Moreover, some files cannot be accessed due to the use of operating system. To resolve these problems, forensic analysis should be conducted by using the Master File Table (MFT). In this paper, We implement the file access program which interprets the MFT information in NTFS file system. We also extensibly compare the program with the previous method. Experimental results show that the presented program reduces the file access time then others. As a result, The file access method using MFT information is forensically sound and also alleviates the investigation time.

Currently, crimes are becoming increasingly dense, the technique is also very tricky. Pickpocket, the theft of crime, is occurred at the most crowded or congested places. However, nowadays occurs more commonly at the rare and secluded place in the human. In this paper, we investigate the techniques and types of pickpockets. And realistically to submit classified video, to standing, sitting, and lying to the classification. Target for pickpockets, we classify it to submit a video forensic evidence. This paper will be needed in order to prevent and cope with pickpockets crimes.

본 연구는 한국주가지수선물시장에 있어서 1996년 5월부터 1998년 6월까지의 기간동안에 상장되어 실질적으로 거래된 각 주가지수선물 종목별 가격 및 거래량자료를 이용하여 만기까지의 기간, 거래량 그리고 가격변동성간의 체계적인 관계를 검증하였다. 즉, 주가지수선물의 종목들이 만기일에 접근함에 따라 거래량은 어떻게 변동하는가, 그리고 변동성은 어떻게 변동하는가를 실증적으로 검증한 것이다. 검증된 실증결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 주가지수선물시장에 있어서 거래되는 종목들은 만기까지의 기간과 거래량간에 유의적인 음(-)의 관계가 확인되었고, 이는 만기일에 정근함에 따라 거래량은 증가하는 행태를 갖는다는 것이 일반적인 현상임을 알 수 있었다. 둘째, 주가지수선물시장에서 거래된 종목들에 있어서 동시적 거래량과 변동성간에는 유의적인 양(+)의 관계가 성립함에 따라 혼합분포가설을 주장한 Clark(1973)의 연구결과를 어느 정도 지지하는 증거를 발견하였다. 셋째, 주가지수선물시장에 있어서 만기까지의 기간과 변동성간에는 유의적인 음(-)의 관계가 존재한다는 것을 확인할 수 없었다 즉, 만기일에 접근함에 따라 가격변동성이 증가한다는 만기 효과가설을 지지하는 증거를 한국주가지수선물시장에서는 발견할 수 없었다.

Geomagnetic depth sounding (GDS) was performed to analyze the characteristics of deep resistivity structure in and around the Korean Peninsula. The data that have 0.01 nT precision were collected from 5 geomagnetic observatories and measured every one or five second. In this study, amount of 16 days of geomagnetic data were used for analyzing. Generally the sea affects the GDS data seriously due to its high conductivity. However, though the Korean peninsula is surrounded by seas in three sides, the results given by induction arrow strongly show that the trend of electrical conductivity at neighborhood of the Korean Peninsula is reigned by some geological features. Also it is believed that observation in Jeju island is related with the electrical structure around the East China Sea.

In order for data obtained through all stages of digital crime investigation to be recognized as evidence capability, it must satisfy legal / technical requirements. In this paper, we propose a mechanism and implement software to provide digital forensic evidence by automatically recovering files by scanning / inspecting the unallocated area inside the storage disk block without relying on information provided by the file system. The proposed technique checks / analyzes the RAW disk data of the system under analysis in 512-byte block units based on information on the storage format / file structure of various files stored on the disk without referring to the file system-related information provided by the operating system. The file carving process was implemented, and a smart carving mechanism was proposed to intelligently restore deleted or damaged files in the storage device. As a result, we have provided a block based smart carving method to intelligently identify fragmented and damaged files in storage efficiently for forgery analysis on digital forensic investigation.

This paper examines the effect of private tutoring expenditures on academic performance of middle school students in South Korea, using data from "Analysis of the Level of School Education and Its Actual condition: Middle School". In the face of endogeneity of private tutoring expenditures, the paper employs an instrumental variable (IV) method and a nonparametric bounding method. Using both methods we show that the true effect of private tutoring on middle school students remains at most modest in Korea. The IV results suggest that a 10 percent increase in tutoring expenditure for Korean, English and math raises a student's test score of the subject at the largest by 1.24, 1.28, and 0.75 percent, respectively. The bounding results also fail to show evidence that an increase in tutoring expenditure leads to economically and statistically significant improvements in test score.
