Noise is defined to be unwanted (or undesirable) sounds, and it can be subdivided into occupational and environmental noises. The occupational noise is largely emitted from workplaces, but the environmental noise is produced from various sources such as transportation, construction, and even neighborhood. Transportation, particularly road vehicles, has been recognized to play a major role in emitting environmental noise and having adverse effects on urban communities. Considering this issue, this research investigated how severe the impacts of road traffic noise on a variety of land uses in a highly urbanized area, Fulton County, Georgia, United States. Daytime and nighttime road traffic noise maps were derived with Traffic Noise Model that was developed by Federal Highway Administration at United States Department of Transportation. Individual noise maps were overlaid on three-tiered land use type maps in order to evaluate the magnitude of noise impacts on the study area, as a noise exposure assessment. This study found that many land use parcels and buildings were exposed to noise levels exceeding the guideline values of the World Health Organization and the Atlanta Code of Ordinance. Therefore, it would be required to take an action that can protect many urban residents from ill effects of road traffic noise.

자료분석 결과 발견된 사실들을 정리해 보면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 직장에서 발생하는 성적 성가심에 대해 상대적으로 적극적으로 대응하는 여성들은 약 50.6%정도로 나타났다. 이 중에서도 성적 성가심에 대해서 불쾌하게 인식하는 정도도 상대적으로 높고, 불쾌감을 상대에게 표현하며 대응하는 정도도 상대적으로 높은 여성들은 전체 응답자(736명)중에서 약 40%(294명)정도 였다. 성적 성가심에 대하여 불쾌함을 인식하는 정도는 상대적으로 낮으나 상대에게 불쾌함을 표현하며 대응하는 수준은 상대적으로 높은 여성들이 약 10.7%(79명)로 나타났다. 반면에 성적 성가심에 대하여 불쾌하게 인식하는 정도도 상대적으로 낮고 불쾌함을 상대에게 표현하는 정도도 낮은 여성들이 약 32.8%(242명)나 되었다. 약 16.4%(121명)의 여성들은 성적 성가심 상황에서 불쾌하게 인식하는 정도가 상대적으로 높으면서도 상대에게 불쾌감을 표현하며 대응하는 정도는 상대적으로 낮았다. <표 4> 둘째, 직장에서 발생하는 성적 성가심 상황에서 여성이 상대에게 성적 성가심에 대한 자신의 불쾌함을 표현하며 대응하는 능력은 여성의 심리적 특성인 대인의존성과 밀접한 관계가 있다는 사실을 명백하게 확인하였다. 성적 성가심 상황에서 성적 성가심에 대해 상대적으로 불쾌하다고 인식하는 정도가 높으면서 불쾌감을 표현하고 대응하는 수준은 상대적으로 낮은 여성들은 대인 의존도가 상대적으로 높았고, 반대로 성적성가심에 대해 상대적으로 불쾌하게 인식하는 정도가 상대적으로 낮으면서 불쾌감을 표현하며 대응하는 수준은 상대적으로 높은 여성들은 대인 의존도가 상대적으로 높게 나타났는데 이는 주목할만한 사실이다. 세째, 성장시 부모의 상호작용 유형이 성적 성가심과 같은 이성과의 상황에서의 여성들의 대응 반응과 밀접한 관련성이 있음을 발견하였다. 성장시 아버지가 지배적이고 어머니가 순종적인 특성이 뚜렷한 가정에서 성장한 여성들은 부모의 상호작용 유형이 동등한 가정 분위기에서 양육된 여성들에 비해 성적 성가심 상황에서 불쾌함을 표현하며 상대에게 대응하는 수준(강도)자체가 훨씬 낮았고, 성적 성가심에 대해 자신이 불쾌하게 생각하는 정도보다 상대적으로 훨씬 약한 소극적인 대응반응을 보이는 사실도 확인되었다. 성적 성가심 상황에서 상대 남성에 대한 여성들의 대응 반응은 성장시 남성인 아버지에 대한 여성인 어머니의 태도 및 행동의 재현(reenactment)현상으로 나타났다고 해석할 수 있다. 이러한 발견은 특히 동성인 부모가 성역활 사회화의 가장 강력한 모델이라는 학습 이론가들의 주장을 거듭 뒷받침하여 준다.

This study investigates why some female workers come to decide to leave work after their taking parental leave and subsequently classifies their resignation backgrounds into four ideal types. The current debates on parental leave have mostly focused on clarifying the factors that influence on workers' usage of parental leave. But given that the final goal of parental leave is to help workers return to work after temporary rest for parenting, it is very important to inquire why some workers fail in reverting to their companies after parental leave. Based on in-depth interviews with 8 female workers who leave work after parental leave, this study analyses and compares their previous work-family conditions, reasons for taking parental leave and withdrawing from work, and behavioral patterns after resignation. This article then typifies four ideal types of resignation backgrounds (i.e. penalty by company, evasion from work, decision by family, choice for family). At the conclusion, this paper suggests policy alternatives to diminish female workers' resignation after parental leave and to heighten their work-family balance.

This study is aimed at identifying the relationship of transit accessibility types to its related travel frequency in the Seoul metropolitan area. A multi-level poisson regression model is employed after categorizing transit accessibility into 18 types based on locations of residential and work workplace. Analysis results offer three policy implications in improving transit use in the Seoul metropolitan area. First, increase in transit ridership can be more effectively attained when policies concerning both competitive and complementary relationships between bus and rail transit are incorporated. Second, transfer system needs to be focused on such two modal perspectives as one travels from Seoul to suburban area and residential areas given the fact that walking accessibility to bus transit is good but that to rail transit is poor. Third, it is more effective to emphasize rail transit priority rather than bus transit, especially for the travel from suburban area to the city of Seoul in order to increase transit ridership.

Hepatoid adenocarcinoma (HAC) is a rare form of adenocarcinoma that is diagnosed based on immuno-histochemical findings reminiscent of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The clinical characteristics of HAC include increased levels of serum alpha-fetoprotein and a poor prognosis due to early liver metastasis. In particular, diagnosing liver metastasis of HAC can be challenging owing to radiological findings similar to those of HCC. Although HAC can occur in various organs, the stomach is the most common site. We present the case of a 64-year-old femalewho presented with multiple tumors in the liver. During subsequent examination, rectal cancer was identified and diagnosed as HAC through a biopsy. Herein, we report this case along with a literature review.

This paper explores the how the disability type, severeness and economic activeness affects marital satisfaction, and seeks to improve marital satisfaction among disabled by clarifying mediating effects of discriminatory experiences in everyday experiences. This research was done with 3,463 married disabled who were prone to everyday discrimination, among whom were enrolled in research database of Employment Development Institute of Korea Employment Promotion Agency for the Disabled. The research showed positive effects between marital satisfaction and everyday discriminatory experience except for unemployed people and severe among all the disabled type (external disability, sensory disability, mental disability, internal disability), disability severeness (severe and light), and economic activeness (paid workers, self-employed, home-worker, unemployed, not economically active). Also, relationship between disability type, severeness, economical activeness and marital satisfaction was partly mediated through everyday discriminatory experiences. Therefore, active movements to reduce everyday discrimination are strongly advised.

Diagnosis and treatment of major reproductive failures were carried out for 836 dairy cows of 12 farms in Kimje area from May 1999 to May 2000. Reproductive failures were classified into four categories: uterine diseases, ovarian diseases, combination of uterine and ovarian diseases, and anestrus with corpus luteum (CL), based on the diagnosis by both rectal palpation and ultrasonography (SA 600, Medison, 5.OMHz transducer). 1. Of 102 cows examined, 15 cows were diagnosed as pregnant. Cows with real reproductive failures were therefore 87 cows and the rate of reproductive failures far all the cows of 12 farms was 10.4% (87/836). 2. Of 57 cows with reproductive failures, the cows with uterine diseases were 33 heads (37.9%), with ovarian diseases: 30 heads (34.5%), with combination form: 16 heads (18.4%), and with anestrus with CL: 8 heads (9.2%). 3. Of 87 cows with reproductive failures, 7 cows were slaughtered and 80 cows were treated by hormone or douche. The cows expressed estrus were 74 cows (92.5%, 74/80 heads) and 56 cows were pregnant (70.0%, 56/80 heads) following treatment. 4. The reproductive failures tended to be increased as the period proceeded from 30 days (2.3%, 2/87 heads) to over 120 days (56.3%, 49/87 heads) after parturition. 5. Associated other diseases to reproductive failures were foot diseases(5 cows), joint diseases (5 heads), urovagina (6 heads), and rectovaginal fistula (2 cows) and the rate of occurrence of associated diseases was 20.7% (18/87 heads). 6. No reproductive record was used in 7 farms of 12 farms and 5 farms had no play ground or not used for the cows. These results indicated that diagnosis fur reproductive failures by rectal palpation along with ultrasonography was more accurate than the conventional rectal palpation and brought better result of treatment for major types of reproductive failures. It was also indicated that non-uses of reproductive record and play ground were also important factors in occurrence of reproductive failures.

This study aims to find the best model to fit the number of insurance solicitor's turnovers of life insurance companies using count data regression models such as poisson regression, negative binomial regression, zero-inflated poisson regression, or zero-inflated negative binomial regression. Out of the four models, zero-inflated negative binomial model has been selected based on AIC and SBC criteria, which is due to over-dispersion and high proportion of zero-counts. The significant factors to affect insurance solicitor's turnover found to be a work period in current company, a total work period as financial planner, an affiliated corporation, and channel management satisfaction. We also have found that as the job satisfaction or the channel management satisfaction gets lower as channel management satisfaction, the number of insurance solicitor's turnovers increases. In addition, the total work period as financial planner has positive relationship with the number of insurance solicitor's turnovers, but the work period in current company has negative relationship with it.

The purpose of the study was to examine the vocational competency of students enrolled in vocational high schools including specialized vocational high school and meister vocational high school, and vocation program of general high school. We analyzed their vocational competency, based upon the vocational competency data of KCCI (Korea Chamber of Commerce & Industry). The results were as follow. First, latent profiles of subjects were categorized into four folds: general cognition-low adaption, cognition adaption general, pursuit of job adaption, low cognition-job mal-adaption. Each percentage of four groups was 39%, 30%, 11%, and 20%. Second, mainly, specialized vocational high school pattern is matched with vocational high schools' pattern. However, the cognitive competency of students in meister vocational high school was higher than that of student in vocation program of general high school. Third, latent profile group was clarified in terms of non-cognition aspect. Fourth, The higher the job adaption is, the higher the career decision level. We suggested some policy implications for improve the vocational competency.
