The purpose of this study was to develop and validate the "Authentic Parental Competence Scale" for mothers with school-age children. Based on a literature review, the study found that 'authentic parental competence' could be divided into parenting comperence, self-system competence, and social competence. In addition, the scale comprised three factors consisting of 43. The study collected data through behavior event interview(BEI), focus group interview(FGI), and three times Delphi investigation. The scale for mothers of school-age children consisted of a total of 129 items, which included three different dimensions (knowledge, skill, and attitude), and four factors were extracted from factor analysis following a survey of 362 mothers. The factors were labeled as "ability of developmental positive parenting," "ability of playing a role as a citizen and making social contributions," "ability of self-understanding and interpersonal relations," and "ability of self-growth and self-determination." In addition, the results revealed that the "Authentic Parental Competence Scale" showed an appropriate level of construct validity, reliability of the scales, distribution of item response, and item discrimination.

The recently developed Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) displays outstanding compressive strength and ductility but is also subjected to very large autogenous shrinkage. In addition, the use of forms and reinforcement to confine this autogenous shrinkage increases the risk of shrinkage cracking. Accordingly, this study adopts a combination of shrinkage reducing admixture and expansive admixture as a solution to reduce the shrinkage of UHPC and estimates its appropriateness by evaluating the compressive and flexural strengths as well as the autogenous shrinkage according to the age. Moreover, the coefficient of thermal expansion known to experience sudden variations at early age is measured in order to evaluate exactly the autogenous shrinkage and the thermal expansion is compensated considering these measurements. The experimental results show that the compressive and flexural strengths decreased slightly at early age when mixing 7.5% of expansive admixture and 1% of shrinkage reducing admixture but that this decrease becomes insignificant after 7 days. The use of expansive admixture tended to premature the setting of UHPC and the start of sudden increase of autogenous shrinkage. Finally, the combined use of shrinkage reducing admixture and expansive admixture appeared to reduce effectively the autogenous shrinkage by about 47% at 15 days.

It is known that the human stature and its related dimensions generally increase until the late teens or early twenties, remain relatively constant throughout early adulthood, and decline from early-to-middle adulthood into old age. However, there is exception that the length of the human ears, which continue to grow throughout life. In this study, 600 Korean male and female subjects aging from 17 to 89 were selected. Four different points of external ears including Pinna length, ear connection point length, Concha length, and Lobule thickness were measured along with other relative subjects' demographic data(e.g., age, stature, weight) to determine the relationship among these obtained data. The results showed that the age, sex, and different ethnic populations were functions of ear dimensions similar to the human stature. For example, the Pinna length increases as the age increases(r= 0.689, p<0.00l). The primary objective of this study was thus to provide anthropometric dimensions of Korean ear for the product designers and recommend the appropriate product design solutions in relation to human ear. Based on the results of this study, it is suggested that the continuing growth of the human body parts should be considered in the application of anthropometric data to the design of the things especially for human use.

We present a photometric study of galaxies in the central regions of six nearby galaxy clusters at redshift z=0.0231${\~}$0.0951. We have derived BVI photometry of the galaxies from the CCD images obtained at the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomical Observatory (BOAO) in Korea, and JHKs photometry of the bright galaxies from the 2MASS extended source catalog. Comparing the galaxy photometry results with the simple stellar population model of Bruzual & Charlot (2003) in the optical & NIR color-color diagrams, we have estimated the ages and metallicities of early type galaxies. We have found that the observed galaxies had recent star-formation mostly 5 ${\~}$ 7 Gyrs ago but the spread in age estimation is rather large. The average metallicities are [Fe/H]=0.l${\~}$0.5 dex. These results support the hypothesis that large early type galaxies in clusters are formed via hierarchical merging of smaller galaxies.

The objective of this study is to examine the fracture characteristics of concrete at early ages such as critical stress intensity factor, critical crack-tip opening displacement, fracture energy based on the concepts of the effective-elastic crack model and the cohesive crack model. A wedge splitting test for Mode I was performed on cubic wedge specimens with a notch at the edge. By varying strength and age, load-crack mouth opening displacement curves were obtained and the results were analyzed by linear elastic fracture mechanics. The results from the test and analysis showed that critical stress intensity factor and fracture energy increased, and critical crack-tip opening displacement decreased with concrete age from 1 day to 28 days. The obtained fracture parameters at early ages may be used as a fracture criterion and an input data for finite element analysis of concrete at early ages.

In this study, the influence of chemical admixture on early strength development of concrete is discussed. According to the results, fluidity with variation of kinds of chemical admixture is lower in the case of acceleration type than in the case of normal type. Setting time of naphthalene acceleration type is shortened by I hour, and that of melamine is nearly same, but that of polycarbonic acid is somewhat retarded in comparison with that of naphthalene normal type. Early compressive strength gains 5MPa in about 18hours regardless of the kinds of chemical admixture. But as time elapses, compressive strength is higher in order of polycarbonic acid, naphthalene and melamine type. The relativity between compressive strength and the rebound value of P-type schmidt hammer is also favorable at early age, and compressive strength of 5MPa is estimated at the rebound value of 22.

동절기 콘크리트 시공에 있어서 낮은 외기온에 따른 콘크리트의 강도발현이 저하되며, 동결 및 융해에 따른 콘크리트의 내부조직의 이상으로 인해 내구성이 저하하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 한중콘크리트 제조시 조기강도를 확보하기 위해 혼화재의 사용을 경시하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구는 한중콘크리트의 제조시 혼화재의 사용에 따른 초기동해의 영향을 평가하기 위한 실험을 실시한 것으로서, 초기동해를 입히기 위한 실험 조건으로서, 본 연구는 초기 재령에서 콘크리트에 영향을 미치는 동결온도 및 동결지속시간, 초기양생시간에 따른 혼화재를 사용한 콘크리트의 강도발현특성을 검토하였으며, 실험조건으로서 초기양생기간을 비빔 직후, 12, 24, 48시간, 동결시간을 12, 24, 48시간, 동결온도는 -1, -10, $-15^{\circ}C$로 설정하여 실험을 실시하였다. 본 연구의 실험결과 고로슬래그 미분말의 대체율이 증가할수록 초기재령에서의 강도발현은 지연되는 것으로 나타났으나, 응결을 고려할 경우 고로슬래그 미분말 대체율 20%까지는 거의 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 동결에 따른 강도발현특성을 살펴보면, 비빔 직후 동결시킨 경우에서는 동결온도와 상관없이 재령 28일에 있어서 동결 받지 않은 경우의 80%를 발현하는 것으로 나타났으나, 12시간 이상 양생을 실시한 후 동결시킨 경우에 있어서는 동결온도 및 동결시간과 상관없이 동결시키지 않은 경우와 거의 유사한 강도를 발현하는 것으로 나타났으며, 모든 실험조건에서 혼화재를 사용한 경우에 있어서는 고로슬래그 미분말에 의한 강도회복효과가 매우 큰 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 동절기 초기재령에서 적절한 양생을 실시한다면, 한중콘크리트 제조시 고로슬래그 및 플라이애시와 같은 혼화재의 사용에 따른 콘크리트의 성능향상 효과가 매우 클 것으로 사료된다.

급속경화 콘크리트의 가장 큰 단점은 단시간 내에 발생하는 급격한 수화발열 반응으로 인해 초기팽창이나 수축이 매우 크게 일어나 균열이 발생할 가능성이 높다는 것이다. 그러나 플라이 애시가 사용되면 콘크리트의 수화열을 낮출 수 있으므로 초기팽창과 수축을 현저히 줄일 수 있어 균열발생 억제에 효과적일 수 있다. 초속경 라텍스개질 콘크리트(VES-LMC)는 우수한 재료특성에도 불구하고, 재료 자체의 높은 수화열로 인해 균열이 발생하는 사례가 보고되고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 플라이 애시를 VES-LMC에 적용할 수 있는 방법을 고안하여, 균열에 대한 안정성을 확보하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 울트라파인 플라이 애시(Ultra-Fine Fly Ash ; UFFA)를 사용하여 조기강도 저하의 단점이 극복된 조건에서, 초기 수화열을 낮추고 수축을 저감하여 균열안정성을 확보할 수 있도록 하였다. 실험결과 조기 압축강도는 UFFA 혼입률이 증가함에 따라 다소 감소하지만, 재령 28일 강도는 통계학적으로 유사한 것으로 나타났다. 초기수축 실험결과 UFFA가 단위시멘트량대비 15%에서 20%까지 치환되면 최대수축을 43~47%까지 줄일 수 있어 초기수축 억제에 매우 효과적이므로 균열에 대한 안정성을 확보할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This study sought to examine the impact of reading ability and vocabulary at age 5, as well as analyzing the impact which children's gender, parental education level and family income level has on reading comprehension ability and vocabulary at the first grade level in primary school. The study also sought to compare the characteristics of the results obtained in Korea and Japan on this particular research topic. For the Korean part of the study, 328 first grade Korean children, who had participated in the initial testing as five-year olds and agreed to participate in the longitudinal study were tested; whereas in Japan, 215 students were tested. The study results indicated that, in the case of Korea, reading comprehension ability in the first grade was affected by vocabulary and reading abilities at age 5, gender, as well as the mother's education level, in that order. In Japan, it was affected in the order of vocabulary, gender, and father's education level. In terms of first grade vocabulary, in the case of Korea, it was affected in the order of vocabulary and reading ability at age 5 and father's education level; whereas in Japan, it was affected in the order of vocabulary, gender, and reading ability. In both Korea and Japan, at age 5, vocabulary was shown to have a more significant impact than reading ability on both of language ability and vocabulary in the subsequent primary school period. As such, it can be seen that more interest should be shown not only in the ability to read at age 5 but also in expanding the vocabulary of children at this age through appropriate interaction and support.

Gindai (Pristipomoides zonatus) is one of six snappers in a management complex called the Deep 7 of the Hawaiian Islands. Little is known about its life history and a preliminary analysis of otolith thin sections indicated the species may exhibit moderate growth with a lifespan approaching 40 years. Preliminary age estimates from the previous study were reinvestigated using the same otolith sections in an attempt to validate those ages with bomb radiocarbon (¹⁴C) dating. From the misalignment of birth years for the otolith ¹⁴C measurements with regional references - the post-peak bomb ¹⁴C decline period - it was concluded that previous ages were inflated from overcounting of the earliest growth zone structure in otolith sections. The oldest gindai was re-aged to 26 years once the age reading was adjusted for early overcounting, 13 years younger than the original estimate of 39 years for this fish. In general, the earliest otolith growth of gindai was massive and complicated by numerous subannual checks. The approach of lumping the early growth structures was supported by the alignment of ¹⁴C measurements from otolith core material (first year of growth). The result was greater consistency of calculated birthdates with the ¹⁴C decline reference, along with minor offsets that may indicate age estimation was imprecise by a few years for some individuals. The revised von Bertalanffy growth function applied to the validated age-at-length estimates revealed more rapid growth (k = 0.378 cf. 0.113) and a lifespan of approximately 30 years. The findings presented here are a case study of how the bomb ¹⁴C decline period can be used as a tool in the refinement of age reading protocols.
