Prior to the start of the general oral examination, this study was performed using the theory of planned behavior to provide data that would help not only increase intention of industrial workers' dental care utilization after their dental examination, but develop the follow-up oral health programs. As the first research group, 608 workers were selected from the 1016 workers while excluding both 53 workers who were currently undergoing dental treatment and 355 workers who had an opportunity to visit the dental clinic over the previous six months. Among the general characteristics that would influence the 608 workers' intention to utilize the dental clinic within one (1) month, their financial state showed that the higher their financial abundance level, the stronger their intention to visit the dental clinic(p<0.01). It was shown that the attitude toward the dental care utilization related behavior and subjective norm except the perceived behavioral control among the TPB variables had a significant effect on their intention(p<0.01). Among TPB variables, attitude toward the dental care utilization and subjective norm except the perceived behavioral control, were significant correlation with behavioral intention(p<0.01). The structure model's R-square of the attitude toward the behavior, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control having and effect on the intention accounted for 21%. In order to encourage the workers to have positive thoughts about the attitude toward their dental care utilization and subjective norm, therefore, it is required to perform the continued oral health programs, in addi1ion to oral health experts' regular education.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify cell phone addiction in school-age children and factors influencing addiction. Methods: The participants were 163 parents of elementary school students in the 1st to 4th grades. Data were collected through self-report questionnaires completed by the parents, and analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 19.0 IBM program. Results: Of the children, 86.5% were reported as being average users, 9.2%, at risk users, and 4.3%, at high risk users. Cell phone addiction in the children was significantly different according to games played by the children and parents' monthly income. Significant factors influencing cell phone addiction in the children were children's self-control, games played by the children, parents' cell phone addiction and parental control for children's cell phone use, explaining 24% of variance in cell phone addiction. Conclusion: The findings indicate that cell phone addiction in school-age children is influenced by parent-related factors as well as personal factors. Therefore approaches to education programs on cell phone use in school-age children should include parent-related factors as well as personal factors of the children.

The Brain Korea 21 (i.e., BK21) is a state-led higher education funding project that started in 2013. Previous literature investigating the effectiveness of the project mainly focused on massive quantitative outcomes of funded teams, and many studies reporting only self-reported data of graduate students who participated in the project. Therefore, there were not many BK21 studies that thoroughly examined the graduate students' performance, ability, satisfaction, etc. This study aims to determine the effect of the BK21 project participation on graduate students' academic performance, using objective (the number of published papers), self-rating (graduates' satisfaction), and other-rating (advisor's performance evaluation) data, which were sampled from 2013 to 2019 from a single funded team on a one-departmental-unit. The results showed that the participating graduate students had more published papers, and had higher performance evaluation scores in research, and overall abilities, than the non-participating graduate students. Further, participating students were largely satisfied with BK21 supports. This study has significance in that it demonstrates the positive influence of the BK21 project on graduate students' academic performance and satisfaction by the thorough investigation of a single social science funded team.

The purpose of this study is to provide some necessary baseline data to the information prodigy related research through the study on the brain left/right tendency of information prodigies. Subjects were 298 gifted students(59 information, 79 mathematics, 80 science, 40 invention, 40 social science) and 114 general students summing up 412 in the schools of Daejeon metropolitan area. 'Brain Tendency Test' developed by Torrance and modified by Ko in Korean was used as a tool to measure the prodigies' brain tendencies. Data analysis has been done with the $x^2$ test of frequency with the alpha = .05. The results of this study are as follows. 1) The information gifted students have tendencies of utilizing right brain hemisphere at the most, both left/right brain(whole brain) utilization at the second, and left brain utilization at the last. 2) There was statistically no difference between information prodigies and general students in the left/right brain tendency. 3) There was statistically mild evidence to support the notion that there are some differences in the brain tendency between the group of information prodigies and the group of other area of the prodigies. The degree of inclination to utilize the whole brain hemisphere for the prodigies of the other area was the highest compare to other left/right brain utilization while the information prodigies tend to utilize the right brain hemisphere at the most. 4) The female information prodigies have tendencies of utilizing while brain area at the most, right brain utilization at the second, and left brain utilization at the last contrary to the brain utilization tendencies in the male information prodigies which are the same as the brain utilization tendencies of the information prodigies. However there was no difference in brain tendencies statistically between the two groups since the female subjects were too small.
