Purpose: The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of the physical properties of RGP lens induced by lens polishing on the actual wearer's subjective comfort, the tear film break-up time and the blinking rate as a follow-up study that revealed the relationship between the lens physical properties during lens manufacturing and lens wearer's factors. Methods: RGP lenses made from the three different polishing conditions (25, 50 and 100 seconds) were applied on 28 eyes of 17 subjects, aged 20 to 29 years, without any known disease and surgical history in the eyes. While the subjects were asked to wear the RGP lenses longer than a week, the questionnaire for the comfortability was administered everyday. Subjective and objective tear break-up time and blinking rate of the wearers were further measured. Results: The wearer's subjective comfortability showed some difference in the type of discomfort and satisfaction score according to the polishing status when wearing RGP lenses made from different polishing conditions longer than a week, and a bigger difference in satisfaction score induced by polishing condition was especially shown in experienced RGP lens wearer rather than un-experienced wearer. In the case of RGP lens wearer compared with the ones without the wearing experience, as the wearing time increased subjective and objective tear break-up time were increased and the blinking rate was decreased. However, subjective and objective tear break-up time were tended to decrease with even longer wearing time when wearing the RGP lens made from the polishment for 100 seconds. Conclusions: These results confirmed that the optimization of physical properties of the lens may not give the same effect on the wearer's subjective and objective symptoms and other factors when actual wearing. From the results, it can suggest that the success rate of RGP lens wear may be changed by physiological factors such as the stabilization of wearer's tear film, comfortability and lens wearing experience when wearing RGP lens based on 'The manufacturing standard for soft contact lens/hard contact lens' provided by Korea Food and Drug Administration.

This quasi-experimental study examined the experience of simulation clothes and its effects among undergraduate nursing students. Method: The experimental group consisted of 44 sophomore students in a diploma nursing program, while 41 students comprised the comparison group. Only the experimental group experienced the functional decline of aging after taking on simulation clothes. Homogeneity between the groups was analyzed using t-test, and Fisher's exact test. Paired t-test and t-test were adopted for testing changes of attitudes and awareness of supporting elders. In addition, contents of students' reports of the aging simulation experience were analyzed. Results: No significant quantitative effect was observed in attitudes toward elders and awareness of supporting elders. However, the simulation experience seemed to have enhanced students' understanding of elders and of basic elder care as well. Furthermore, the students could think of preparing for their later lives. Conclusion: The experience of simulation clothes is a meaningful learning opportunity in gerontological nursing curriculum. Students' experiences need to be shared and reinforced in a discussion session. Safety should be secured in the process of the experience. The simulation experience can be further developed to raise its quality.

This study investigated the status of soft contact lens wear in college students. The results were as follows: 1. The most prevalent age of initial contact lens wear was 19 years or 20 years, with an age distribution in females from as early as 10 years to 20 years. 2. For almost all subjects, the test clinic for the contact lens wear assessment and purchase of the contact lenses was an optical shop. 3. The main advantage for most male subjects was use for sports, whereas most female subjects used contact lenses for cosmetic reasons. 4. The most common side-effects experienced due to contact lens wear were red eye, foreign body sensation, and eye pain. 5. The most frequently reported eye disease caused by contact lens wear was conjunctivitis, with only few subjects experiencing keratitis. 6. Following treatment for the side effects of contact lens wear, most subjects hoped to re-use the previous contact lenses, some subjects wanted to change to new contact lenses, and others subjects refused further contact lens wear.

사람들은 자신이 선호하는 스타일의 의복을 착용하기를 원한다. 하지만 다수의 사람들이 자신의 체형 부위별로 본인이 생각하기에 만족하지 못하는 경우가 많아 실제로는 선호하는 스타일이 아닌 자신의 체형을 커버하는 디자인의 의복을 착용하는 경우가 많다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 정장류 착용 경험이 많고 사회 활동을 많이 하는 성인 여성을 대상으로 신체인지도 및 만족도에 따른 아이템(재킷, 팬츠, 스커트)별 선호스타일과 착용스타일에 어떠한 차이점이 있는가를 살펴보고, 이러한 차이가 나타나는 요인을 분석해 보고자 한다. (중략)

The purposes of this study were to identify the effects of women's attitudes, selection, and wearing experience on purchasing intention of underwears made of smart fibers. Most women wore brassieres when going out and preferred moulded cup brassieres, but neglected wearing corsets. Age and marital status of women affected on women's attitudes toward underwear. Younger women in 20's preferred underwears made of smart fibers such as high hygroscopic and older women in 40's preferred conservative underwear. Most women had experienced stretchy underwear and wearing experiences of smart fiber underwears were positively related to purchasing intention. Underwear wearing experiences affected positively on purchasing intention of smart fiber underwears but some functions such as design and comfort affected negatively.

대부분의 농약은 인간에게 해를 미치는 화학물질로 구성되어 있어서 반복 노출된 살포자는 다양한 종류의 상해를 받게 된다. 많은 연구결과들에 의하면 농약살포자가 농약에 노출되는 이유로 방제복의 미착용이 가장 중요한 것으로 보고되고 있다. 세계적으로 적지 않은 농민이 경미하든 심각하든 간에 농약중독으로 추정되는 자각증상을 경험한 바가 있다고 답하고 있다. (중략)

Purpose: This study was to compare the habitual soft contact lens wear to recommended wearing schedule for subjects and suggest a clinical guideline for prescribing contact lens. Methods: 611 adults (39 men and 572 women) with contact lens experience took part in this study. The survey collected information about current wearing schedule (hours/day and days/week), types of lenses worn and awareness of recommended wear schedule. Results: The subjects wore the daily contact lens for $7.97{\pm}3.60$ hours/day in average. Of these, 247 subjects (40.4%) exceeded the recommended wear schedule and 36 (5.9%) wore for over 15 hours. It turned out that subjects with 3-month extended contact lenses and the ones with the conventional daily wear wore for $9.79{\pm}2.68$ hours and $8.98{\pm}3.30$ hours/day, respectively. For subjects wearing contact lenses longer than five days/week it tended to wear for over 9 hours. Those who were aware of the wear schedule were 293 (48.0%), and those not were 318 (52.0%). 56.7% of subjects who were aware of the wear schedule respected the recommendation whereas only 22.3% of those unaware of it were found to respect it. The possibility to respect the wear schedule was 4.55 times higher when wearers were aware of it. Conclusions: Korean office workers wearing contact lenses wore for $7.97{\pm}3.60$ hours/day. 247 (40.4%) of subjects wore contact lens longer than recommended wear schedule. This implies that it will need to educate contact lens wearer about recommended wear schedule and advice for the long time wearer.

본 연구의 목적은 최근 미국 내에서 교육 개혁의 한 방편으로 공립학교 학생들에게 교복을 착용하도록 하는 도시가 증가함에 따라 교복 정책에 대한 여론은 찬반론이 교차하고 있고, 이를 뒷받침 할 연구는 부족하여 교복 착용에 관련된 요인들간의 관계를 알아보아 교육정책에 제안하기 위하여 시도되었다. 연구 대상자는 미국 미네소타 주, 도심 지역의 세 남녀 공학 고등학교를 대상으로 조사되었다. 세 고등학교는 학교 의복 착용에 대한 서로 다른 규율을 갖고 있었다. School R은 학교에서 지정한 교복만을 착용 해야 하는 규율을 갖고 있고 School F는 학생들에게 학교가 선정한 색상에 일치하는 의복을 통학복 으로 입을 수 있도록 한 매우 유동적인 교복 정책을 갖고 있었다. School N은 특정한 학교 교복은 없고 학생들에게 통학복 착용에 대한 규율은 있었다. 세 학교의 학부모, 교사, 학생을 대상으로 한 연구 결과는 부모, 교사는 교복 착용이 학생들의 행동에 영향을 미칠 것이라고 인지한 반면 학생들은 전체적으로 그렇지 않다는 태도를 보였다. 학생들에게 선호도가 높은 교복은 School F의 교복처럼 통학복에 색상 제한을 하는 약간은 자유로운 형태로 나타났으며 해당 학교 학생들의 교복에 대한 만족도 또한 높게 나타났다. 교복을 입지 않는 School N의 학부모들은 학생들 통학복에 대한 지출이 다른 두 학교 부모 보다 많은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 교복을 착용한 경험이 오래된 학생일수록 교복 착용에 더 긍정적인 관점을 보인 것으로 보아 미국 내에서의 교복 정책은 초등학교부터 실시하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 받아 들여 진다.
