  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the attachment of middle school students to their parents, their self-control, problem behavior, and the mediating effect of self-control on the relationship between parent-adolescent attachment and problem behavior. Method: Data were collected by questionnaires from 467 students in middle schools from May 19 to 30, 2008. Data were analyzed by Pearson's correlation coefficient and multiple regression procedures. Result: 1. The students investigated received a mean score of 2.76 and 3.01 on attachment for fathers and mothers respectively. They received a mean score of 3.32 on self-control. The most prevalent self-perceived problem behavior among the students was going home late at night without permission followed by bullying friends for no reason and drinking. 2. Among parent-adolescent attachment, self-control and problem behavior, parent-adolescent attachment had a positive correlation to self-control and a negative correlation to problem behavior. 3. Self-control had a mediating effect on the relationship between parent-adolescent attachment and problem behavior. Conclusion: Parent-adolescent attachment influenced problem behavior through the mediating effect of self-control, and is expected to lay the foundation for the prevention of adolescent problem behavior.

  • In this paper, a specified number of actuators are selected from a given set of admissible actuators. The selected set of actuators is likely to use minimum control energy while required output variance constraints are guaranteed to be satisfied. The actuator selection procedure is an iterative algorithm composed of two parts; an output variance constrained control and an input variance constrained control algorithm. The idea behind this algorithm is that the solution to the first control problem provides the necessary weighting matrix in the objective function of the second optimization problem, and the sensitivity information from the second problem is utilized to delete one actuator. For variance constrained control problems, by considering a dual version of each control problem an efficient algorithm is provided, whose convergence properties turn out to be better than an existing algorithm. Numerical examples with a simple beam are given for both the input/output variance constrained control problem and the actuator selection problem.

  • This paper is concerned with a motion control of a manipulator under parametric uncertainties and external disturbances. The parametric uncertainties are regarded as internally generated disturbances in the manipulator. Based on this idea, we formulate a model reference control problem with desired disturbance attenuation. The solution of this control problem not only reduces the worst-case effect on tracking error due to internal and external disturbances (combined disturbances) as much as possible, but also achieve optimal tracking when perturbations are absent. In order to solve the control problem which is formulated in this paper we reduce it to a constrained minmax cost control problem. A differential game theory is used to treat this constrained minmax cost control problem. The differential game theory leads to a sufficient condition for the global solvability of the model reference control problem with desired disturbance attenuation.

  • The main purpose of this study was to examine pathways from interparental conflict to adolescents' problem behavior through maternal support and control and/or quality of peer relationship. A sample of 340 high school students (166 boys and 174 girls) in Incheon completed questionnaires on interparental conflict, maternal support and control, quality of peer relationship, and problem behavior. Data were analyzed by means of structural equation modeling. The results demonstrated that interparental conflict had a direct influence in both internalizing and externalizing problem behaviors, indicating that adolescents who perceived higher levels of interparental conflict had more problem behaviors. Regarding pathways from interparental conflict to problem behavior through maternal support and control and/or quality of peer relationships, adolescents perceiving higher levels of interparental conflict reported higher maternal psychological control and lower support and behavioral control. This was followed by a lower level of quality in terms of their peer relationships; the lower quality of peer relationships resulted in more adolescent problem behaviors. These results indicate that interparental conflict and maternal support and control play crucial roles in the development of internalizing and externalizing problem behavior, respectively.

  • In this paper we consider an optimal control system described by n-dimensional heat equation with a thermal source. Thus problem is to find an optimal control which puts the system in a finite time T, into a stationary regime and to minimize a general objective function. Here we assume there is no constraints on control. This problem is reduced to a moment problem. We modify the moment problem into one consisting of the minimization of a positive linear functional over a set of Radon measures and we show that there is an optimal measure corresponding to the optimal control. The above optimal measure approximated by a finite combination of atomic measures. This construction gives rise to a finite dimensional linear programming problem, where its solution can be used to determine the optimal combination of atomic measures. Then by using the solution of the above linear programming problem we find a piecewise-constant optimal control function which is an approximate control for the original optimal control problem. Finally we obtain piecewise-constant optimal control for two examples of heat equations with a thermal source in one-dimensional.

  • The Purpose of this study was to examine the direct or indirect effects of psychological family environment self-control, and friends characteristics of middle school students on their problem behaviors. Data were corrected from 520 senior students of middle school (266 boys and 254 girls) who reside in Inchon. The level of problem behaviors was directly influenced positively by closeness with friends and negatively by self-control and open communication with mothers. And the level of problem behaviors was indirectly influenced positively by intrafamily conflicts and negatively by self-control, parental monitoring and open communication with parents. Self-control was the most powerful predicator of problem behaviors of middle school students. Self-control was directly influenced positively by open communication with fathers and negatively by intrafamily conflicts. Closeness with friends was directly influenced positively by parental monitoring and negatively by self-control and open communication with mothers.

  • In this paper, we consider the problem of a stochastic optimal switching control, which can be applied to the control of a system with uncertain demand such as a control problem of a power plant. The dynamic programming method is applied for the formulation of the optimal control problem. We solve the system of Quasi-Variational Inequalities(QVI) using an algoritlim which involves the finite difference approximation and contraction mapping method. A mathematical example of the optimal switching control is constructed. The actual performance of the algorithm is also tested through the solution of the constructed example.

  • In this paper, the authors propose a new approach to control problem of the marine vessels which are moored or controlled by actuators. The vessel control problem in the specified area is called a DPS (Dynamic Positioning System). The main objective of this paper is to obtain more useful control design method for DPS. In this problem, a complicate fact is control allocation which is a numerical method for distributing the control signal to the controlled system. For this, many results have been given and verified by other researchers using two individual processes. It means that the controller design and control allocation design process are carried out individually. In this paper, the authors give more sophisticated design solution on this issue. In which the controller design and control allocation problem are unified by a robust controller design problem. In other word, the stability of the closed-loop system, control performance and allocation problem are unified by an LMI (Linear Matrix Inequality) constraint based on $H_2/H_{\infty}$ mixed design framework. The usefulness of proposed approach is verified by simulation with a supply vessel model and found works well.
