As the number of foreign workers increases in Korea, people's interest in their adaptation to this society has also increased. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a forest-healing program on foreign workers' cultural adaptation stress and psychological wellbeing. The experiment was conducted in a recreation forest located in Hongcheon-gun, Gangwon-do. The subjects who participated in this study included 40 foreign workers (16 males, 24 females). The experiment was conducted for three days and two nights from June 26 to 28, 2019. The forest healing program was composed of activities that can enhance immunity and restore physical and mental health by utilizing various healing environmental factors such as landscapes, sunlight, anion and oxygen in forest. The independent sample t-test was conducted to examine changes in cultural adaptation stress and psychological well-being before and after the program. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 18.0 program. As a result, cultural adaptation stress was statistically significantly reduced in sub-factors including discrimination experience, language conflict and legal status. Psychological wellbeing improved in all the surveyed sub-factors such as self-confidence, ego, immersion, and joy. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for reducing the stress foreign workers experience from cultural adaptation and restoring their psychological wellbeing in the future.

기존의 연구들은 비정신장애인이 느끼는 정신장애인에 대한 위협감이 정신장애에 대한 편견 및 차별에 중요한 역할을 한다고 보고한다. 이에 본 연구는 비정신장애인이 느끼는 정신장애인에 대한 위협감(실질적 위협감/상징적 위협감)을 설명할 수 있는 요인으로 접촉경험과 공동체의식을 선정하여 그 관계를 살펴보았다. 이를 위해 대학생 465명(평균 22.87세)을 대상으로 접촉경험 유무, 접촉대상, 경험을 통해 받은 인상(경험의 질), 공동체의식, 그리고 위협감을 질문하였다. 분석결과, 실질적 위협감은 접촉경험 여부나 대상에 따라 차이가 나타나지 않았지만, 상징적 위협의 경우에는 접촉경험이 있다고 답한 응답자가 그렇지 않은 응답자보다 낮게 나타났다. 접촉경험이 있는 응답자를 대상으로 해당 경험의 질을 살펴본 결과, 거의 대부분의 경우에서 경험의 질이 실질적 위협감 및 상징적 위협감 모두에 유의미한 설명력을 가졌다. 마지막으로, 접촉경험 유무는 상징적 위협감만 설명하였지만, 공동체의식은 실질적 위협과 상징적 위협 모두에 유의미한 변인으로 분석되었다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 접촉과 공동체의식이 위협감에 미치는 영향에 대한 함의와 시사점을 논의하였다.

The purposes of this study is to classify retiree's job, leisure, and family attitude; to identify the characteristics of each attitude types; and to examine the retirement adaptation level of each attitude type. The major findings of the study are as follows: First, four attitude types can be categorized: 'the job involved attitude type', 'the total positive attitude type', 'the leisure positive attitude type', and 'the total negative attitude type'. Second, the result of the discriminant analysis shows that 'the job-family experience before retirement and number of unmarried children' element was the most crucial in classifying the retiree's attitude. And 'the retirement reception and individual resource element' was in orders of discrimination power Third, 'the total positive attitude type' is the highest level of retirement adaptation.

We have heard about several keywords of the fourth industrial revolution such as automation, artificial intelligence and connectivity. And electronic publishing systems and ebooks will enable us to experience a new industrial revolution without discrimination. On that level, it is necessary to study a method of automatic accessibility tool for electronic publishing. There are some studies on accessibility standard specifications, accessibility guidelines, and accessibility certificate criteria. but there is little research about automatic inspection tools in electronic publishing area. This paper proposed a library for accessibility inspector of EPUB and its components based on IDPF EPUB accessiblity guidelines and TTA accessibility certificate criteria for reading disabled people. After implementing the library that can be connected to SIGIL, which is the most widely used in Korea, we verified its functionality and its coverage with Korean commercial EPUB files.

Taste is associated with hedonic evaluation as well as recognition of quality and intensity. Taste information is sent to the cortical gustatory area in a chemotopical manner to be processed for discrimination of taste quality. It is also conveyed to the reward system and feeding center via the prefrontal cortices. The amygdala, which receives taste inputs, also influences reward and feeding. In terms of neuroactive substances, palatability is closely related to benzodiazepine derivatives and $\beta$-endorphin, both of which facilitate consumption of food and fluid. The reward system contains the ventral tegmental area, nucleus accumbens and ventral pallidum and finally sends information to the lateral hypothalamic area, the feeding center. The dopaminergic system originating from the ventral tegmental area mediates the motivation to consume palatable food. The actual ingestive behavior is promoted by the orexigenic neuropeptides from the hypothalamus. Even palatable food can become aversive and avoided as a consequence of postingestional unpleasant experience such as malaise. The brain mechanism of these aspects of taste is elucidated.

This paper is intended to suggest how to improve Korean high school students' awareness of the pronunciation in order to foster communicative effectiveness. Initially it is focused on the tasks of listening to the suprasegmental aspects. The strategies used in the listening process are (1)discerning intonation units, (2)recognizing rhythm pattern, and (3)identifying contraction and linking in connected speech. The tasks including in each process are listening discrimination, guided practice activity, and listening and speaking activity. The teacher should avoid methods which yield discouraging outcomes and try to help students enjoy experience of success in doing exercises and activities. So I suggested: students put the slash on the pause perceptible to chunk the stream of speech into the intonation units, and mark the content words to internalize English rhythm. And then I suggested that students listen to pop song English in order to improve the awareness of function words and connected speech in the intonation unit.

This study investigated small and medium-sized hospital workers' knowledge of COVID-19, the infection-control-related fatigue and stress levels, and the factors that impacted their performance during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a cross-sectional design, data were collected from 137 hospital workers from four small and medium-sized hospitals in S and C cities. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, a t-test, analysis of variance(ANOVA), Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple linear regression analysis. Small and medium-sized hospital workers' knowledge of COVID-19 revealed a correct answer rate of 66%. An average of 3.00 points out of 4 for infection control performance and 3.32 and 3.17 points out of 5 for infection-control-related fatigue and stress, respectively, were found. The level of knowledge regarding COVID-19 significantly differed by age and marriage (p<0.05), while infection control performance significantly differed by age, marriage, and infection control education experience (p<0.05). Infection-control-related fatigue and stress differed depending on the COVID-19 control education experience, economic and social prejudice, and fear of discrimination. There were positive correlations between knowledge and infection control performance, and infection control performance and infection-control-related fatigue and stress (p<0.001). This study showed that the factors that affected small and medium-sized hospital workers' performance included knowledge of "environmental management," "difficulties due to new role requirements," "presence or absence of infection education experience," "job type," and "age." These results suggest that practical and detailed education programs should be systematically developed and implemented for effective infection control.

Purpose : This describes our experience with a tenocutaneous free flap from the dorsum of the foot or radial forearm to reconstruct the dorsal skin and extensor tendons of the hand. Material and Methods : Between february 1987 and July 1998, we treated 9 patients with composite tissue loss on the dorsal hand caused by crushing injury. Nine men had an average age of 26.4 years(range, $19{\sim}47$). We treated 5 patients with the free dorsalis pedis flap including the extensor tendons and the superficial peroneal nerve and 4 patients with reverse forearm flap including the brachioradialis tendon and/or superficial radial nerve. Flap size was average 4.4(3,2cm. Evaluation of the results was based on the survived flap rate, the recovery rates for range of motion of the metacarpophalageal joints in the operated fingers. two-point discrimination. Results : All flaps were well vascularized and survived completely. Recovery rates for range of motion of the metacarpophalageal joints in operated fingers range from $78%{\sim}99%$(average, 90%). Two-point discrimination of the transferred flaps in 5 patients average $20{\pm}3.5mm$. Conclusion : The advantages of this procedure are mass action reconstruction with tendon, one-stage operation, faster healing with less adhesion formation, and early mobilization.
