The earlier studies have analyzed theoretical links between nuclear energy and carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions concerning territorial (or production-based) emissions. Here using the latest available dataset, this study explores the impacts of nuclear energy on production-based and consumption-based CO₂ emission in the era of globalization for the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) countries. The Driscoll-Kraay regression method reveals that nuclear energy is beneficial for the reduction of production-based CO₂ emissions. However, it is revealed that nuclear energy does not reduce consumption-based CO₂ emissions that are traded internationally and hence not comprised in conventional production-based emissions (territory) inventories. Globalization tends to reduce both production-based and demand-based carbon emissions. Finally, Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) is validated for both kinds of CO₂ emissions. The findings may deliver practical policy implications related to nuclear energy and CO₂ emissions for selected countries.

The purpose of the study is to clarify red image in the modem fashion. 40 kinds of costume samples being visual power in red have been selected from photographs in fashion magazines and divided into tones: pale (Vp, Lgr, L), bright (P, B), vivid (S, B, Dp), dark (Gr, Dl, Dgr, Dk). The study was measured by using Semantic Differential method. The subjects were 50 students majoring in clothing and textile. The data were analyzed by factor analysis, ANOVA, discrimminant analysis, MDS and regression analysis. The results of analysis are as follow; 1. Factor analysis has extracted 5 factors of red image in the fashion. These factor are Attractiveness, Hardness and Softness, Emotion, Attention, Simplicity. 2. There were significant difference in visual evaluation of red tones. 3. The discrimination among 4 red tones was related to attention and weight of red. 4. Evaluative dimensions of red was classified as Soft-Hard, Lively-Decent. 5. The image effect on Preference, Buying needs, Pleasant and Riches was consist of complicated sensibility.

The purpose of this study is to investigate purple image and formative properties in contemporary fashion. For the study of formative properties 152 kinds of costume samples from photographs in fashion magazines. For the study of image 40 kinds of costume samples is used and divided into tones : pale(Vp, Lgr, L), bright(P, B), vivid(S, V, Dp), dark(Gr, Dl, Dgr, Dk). A total 24 pairs of abjective words were used to measure the semantic differential scale in this study. The data were analyzed by factor analysis, ANOVA, MDS and regression analysis. The results are as follows; 1. Factor analysis has extracted 5 factors which consist of purple image in contemporary fashion. The factors are high quality, hardness and softness, simplicity, temperature, maturity. 2. There were significant differences in visual evaluation of purple tones. 3. The discrimination among. 4 purple tones was related to weight of purple 4. The evaluative dimensions of purple image in modern fashion were identified by Light - Heavy and Pale - Strong. 5. The image effect on Preference, Buying needs, Pleasant and Riches was consist of complicated sensibility.
