The purpose of this study was to examine (1) if sociocultural factors that are known to influence gender gap in mathematics achievement are gender equitable for Singaporean eighth grade students, (2) if there is a higher level of gender equitability in students' attitudes towards mathematics and (3) how sociocultural factors influence mathematics achievement for Singaporean eighth grade students. This study is based on 5,923 Singaporean eighth grade students who participated in TIMSS 2011 assessment. The study found that there were no statistically significant gender differences in 'parental involvement in education' and 'teacher efficacy.' There were no statistically significant gender differences in students' attitudes of 'like learning mathematics,' and 'value learning mathematics'. A significant gender difference was identified for the attitude of 'confident with mathematics.' The boys displayed a higher level of confidence in mathematics than the girls consistent with other study findings for Asian students. The degree of effect from 'parental involvement in education,' 'teacher efficacy,' and 'confident with mathematics' on mathematics achievement are found to be stronger for girls than boys. The finding implies that girls' mathematics achievement can benefit from having more positive encouragement and involvement of parents and teachers and strengthening confidence in mathematics.

Objectives: This study examined the trends in gender disparity in the self-rated health of people aged 25 to 64 in South Korea, a rapidly changing society, with specific attention to socio-structural inequality. Methods: Representative sample data were obtained from six successive, nationwide Social Statistics Surveys of the Korean National Statistical Office performed during 1992 to 2010. Results: The results showed a convergent trend in poor self-rated health between genders since 1992, with a sharper decline in gender disparity observed in younger adults (aged 25 to 44) than in older adults (aged 45 to 64). The diminishing gender gap seemed to be attributable to an increase in women;s educational attainment levels and to their higher status in the labor market. Conclusions: The study indicated the importance of equitable social opportunities for both genders for understanding the historical trends in the gender gap in the self-reported health data from South Korea.

Based on water resources availability and development condition of the Lancang River, as well as considering the international river water resources characters, the paper put forwarded an integrated allocation way of the water resources of Lancang River Basin. According to the basic rules of equitable and suitable utilization of water resources of international rivers, water resources demand for domestic, industrial, irrigation and ecosystem system, and principles of society stabilities and the food safety etc, an index system of Lancang River water resources allocation was set up. Two levels scheme of Lancang River water allocation are proposed. First level is for an international water, which primarily to analysis the water quantity at the national boundary. Second level is for provincial water allocation among Qinghai, Yunnan provinces and Tibetan Autonomous Region. In the allocation schemes, the water resources development of Lancang River Basin at different scenarios and the related water allocation in different years and seasons were analyzed. A discharge to some cross sections of the river and a total amount water quantity for each district has been given as well.

도서관은 모든 이용자의 정보접근권을 보장해야 하는 사회적 기관이다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구에서는 도서관 웹사이트를 통한 평등한 정보접근에 대해 이론적 근거를 제공하기 위해 유니버설 디자인의 개념을 분석하고, 이를 바탕으로 도서관 웹사이트 평가기준을 개발하였다. 그리고 이 평가기준을 이용하여 7개의 지역대표도서관 웹사이트를 평가한 각 웹사이트의 유니버설 디자인 준수율을 측정하였다. 평가 결과, 대부분의 웹사이트가 웹 접근성과 사용성 영역에서는 높은 준수율을 보였으나, 유니버설 디자인의 본질적 속성인 평등한 이용이나 이용의 유연성 측면에서는 준수율이 매우 낮은 것으로 나타났다.

저작권법은 저작권 소유자의 권리와 이용자의 권리 간에 균형을 유지함으로써 지식정보에 대한 접근을 촉진하는 최선의 법적 도구이다. 이러한 측면에서 도서관을 위한 저작권의 제한 및 예외는 학습과 연구를 지원하고 정보의 흐름을 촉진하며, 대중에게 공정한 정보접근을 제공하고 지적 문화유산을 보존하는 데 중요하다. 이에 본 연구는 국내 저작권법의 도서관관련 권리제한조항을 축조분석하여 도서관 보관자료의 보존 및 제공용 복제, 도서관에서 인터넷 정보의 출력과 송신, 재생수단의 입수가 곤란한 자료 및 정부간행물의 보존용 복제와 제공, 장애인을 위한 도서관의 복제와 공중송신에 대한 개선방안을 제시하고 공정이용을 위한 일반규정의 도입방안을 제안하였다.

영국법상 선박 모게지 제도는 오랜 전통에 의하여 계승되었다. 고대로부터 대부는 해상 무역을 함에 있어서 자금이 부족한 선주로부터 요구되어졌다. 선박이라는 용어는 항해에 사용되는 모든 종류의 선박으로 정의되어지며 선박 모게지는 담보금융의 한 형태로서, 선박소유자는 대부를 위해 자기 선박을 저당 잡히고 선박의 소유권을 이전하므로 자금을 빌린다. 이 때 돈올 빌리는 선박소유자를 'mortgagor'(저당권설정자)라고 하고, 돈올 빌려주는 채권자를 'mortgagee'(저당권자)라고 말한다.

South Africa has developed a policy and law that calls and provides for the equitable and sustainable use of water resources. Sustainable resource use is dependent on effective resource protection. Rivers are the most important freshwater resources in the country, and there is a focus on developing and applying methods to quantify what rivers need in terms of flow and water quality. These quantified and descriptive objectives are then related to specified levels of ecological health in a classification system. This paper provides an overview of an integrated and systematic methodology, where, fer each river, and each river reach, the natural condition and the present ecological condition are described, and a level/class of ecosystem health is selected. The class will define long term management goals. This procedure requires each ecosystem component to be quantified, starting with the abiotic template. A modified flow regime is modelled for each ecosystem health class, and the resultant fluvial geomorphology and hydraulic habitats are described. Then the water chemistry is described, and the water quality changes that are likely to occur as a consequence of altered flows are predicted. Finally, the responses to the stress imposed on the biota (fish, invertebrates and vegetation) by modified flow and water quality are predicted. All of the predicted responses are translated into descriptive and/or quantitative management objectives. The paper concludes with the recognition of active method development, and the enormous challenge of applying the methods, implementing the law, and achieving river protection and sustainable resource-use.

Reduction of the under-5 mortality rate is a target of the Sustainable Development Goals. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate under-5 child mortality rates in 52 low-migration countries using population data. The study utilized population data from the US Census Bureau from 1990 to 2015. The method involved first estimating mortality rates for countries with negligible net migration and then applying these rates to countries with matching mortality profiles, where it is reasonable to assume that migration is negligible for children under the age of 5 years. The highest child mortality was concentrated in the African region, followed by Asia and the Western region. However, steady progress in child mortality trends was concentrated in low-income countries. This simple method demonstrated that child mortality has significantly improved in high-income countries, followed by middle- and low-income countries. To reduce the under-5 mortality rates even further in these 52 countries, there is a need to accelerate equitable plans and policies related to child health to promote children's longevity and survival.

Change is inevitable and is a reality of construction projects. Most construction contracts include change clauses and allowing contractors an equitable adjustment to the contract price and duration caused by change. However, the actions of a contractor can cause a loss of productivity and furthermore can result in disruption of the whole project because of a cumulative or ripple effect. Because of its complicated nature, it becomes a complex issue to determine the cumulative impact (ripple effect) caused by single or multiple change orders. Furthermore, owners and contractors do not always agree on the adjusted contract price for the cumulative impact of the changes. A number of studies have attempted to quantify the impact of change orders on project costs and schedule. Many of these attempted to develop regression models to quantify the loss. However, regression analysis has shortcomings in dealing with many qualitative or noisy input data. This study develops ANN models to classify and quantify the labor productivity losses that are caused by the cumulative impact of change orders. The results show that ANN models give significantly improved performance compared to traditional statistical models.
