This paper proposes a systematic methodology that could be used to decide which one shows the best performance among space filling curves (SFCs) in applying lower-dimensional transformations to histogram sequences. A histogram sequence represents a time-series converted from an image by the given SFC. Due to the high-dimensionality nature, histogram sequences are very difficult to be stored and searched in their original form. To solve this problem, we generally use lower-dimensional transformations, which produce lower bounds among high dimensional sequences, but the tightness of those lower-bounds is highly affected by the types of SFC. In this paper, we attack a challenging problem of evaluating which SFC shows the better performance when we apply the lower-dimensional transformation to histogram sequences. For this, we first present a concept of spatial locality, which comes from an intuition of "if the entries are adjacent in a histogram sequence, their corresponding cells should also be adjacent in its original image." We also propose spatial locality preservation metric (slpm in short) that quantitatively evaluates spatial locality and present its formal computation method. We then evaluate five SFCs from the perspective of slpm and verify that this evaluation result concurs with the performance evaluation of lower-dimensional transformations in real image matching. Finally, we perform k-NN (k-nearest neighbors) search based on lower-dimensional transformations and validate accuracy of the proposed slpm by providing that the Hilbert-order with the highest slpm also shows the best performance in k-NN search.

This study developed the Place Attachment to Childhood Home Scale and evaluated its validity and reliability. Samples consisted of 418 college students of four universities. Data were collected by questionnaire based on retrospective questions about the childhood home. Factor analysis resulted in 5 dimensions of place attachment : affection, place identity, place rootedness, playfulness, and place dependence. Especially, playfulness was a unique finding. The result of confirmatory factor analysis supported the five-factor structure. There were also significant correlations among sub-factors. The reliability of the scale appeared high (Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ = .948). Criterion-related validity was confirmed by significant correlations of the present scale with Attachment Scale to Place (Hess, 1997) and the Inventory of Parent Attachment (Armsden & Greenberg, 1987).

Distances or dissimilarities among units are assumed to be symmetric in most cases of multidimensional scaling(MDS); consequently, it is not an easy task to deal with asymmetric distances. Current asymmetric MDS still face difficulties in the interpretation of results. This study proposes a simpler asymmetric MDS that utilizes the order statistic of an asymmetric matrix. The proposed Web method demonstrates that some influences among objects are visualized by direction, size and shape of arrow to ease the interpretability of users.

사회자본은 노인에게 있어 그들의 욕구 및 문제를 해결하는데 용이하게 작용을 할 뿐 만아니라, 나아가 지역사회에서 생활함에 있어 삶의 질을 향상시키는데 기능적 역할을 하기 때문에 중요한 요인이라 할 수 있다. 많은 선행연구들에서 노인의 사회자본 연구들이 진행되고는 있지만, 대부분의 연구에서 척도의 검증 없이 사용되어지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 선행연구를 토대로 사회자본의 개념 및 구성요소를 정의하고, 기존연구에서 제시된 사회자본 측정 문항들을 활용하여 우리나라 노인들이 인지하는 사회자본 척도를 개발한 후 타당도를 검증하고자 한다.

The purposes of this study are to describe the process for the instrument construction and the development of scales on rating college students' adaptability and to analyze the technical qualities of the test. The primary goal of this study is to inform students and institutions what is needed to college student's adjustment process into university and college life. The scales are tested by specialty group and statistical methods, and finally composed of 142 items, which measures 8 scales, the academic integration, the social integration into college, career identity, emotional stability, learning condition's stability, relationship with professors, satisfaction degree of educational service, satisfaction degree of college education. This study analyzed 1,959 students' responses from 4 colleges and universities. This study confirms that the scales which this study developed show high concurrent evidence with the college student's adaptability inventory for Korean university and college students based on various development process, specially rapid great change of college. The result of factor analysis shows the evidence based on internal structures of the scales. The Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ of the subscales is .965, from 742 to .937. The prediction model to determine the possibility of dropout by 7 scales is statistically significant in .05, except learning condition's stability. According to CFA Model, RMSEA= .08~.09. dependence factor variance are explained by this study's CFA model. In conclusion, this study confirms that the scales which this study developed are valid and reliable instrument for Korean university and college students to predict their adaptability to college.

This study was designed to determine whether non-violent criminal and normal control on the basis of concentration of levels of trace mineral and toxic metal by analysis of human scalp hair. The subjects were selected 87 nonviolent criminal from a prison population and 120 normal control from periodic health checks for study. Hair samples were taken from the napes and Minnesota Multiple Personality Inventory (MMPI) was performed also. Five trace mineral (Zn, Cu, Mg, Fe, Na) and two toxic metal (lead, cadmium) contents were determined by an atomic absorption spectrometer. The contents of zinc and magnesium in hair of non-violent criminal were significantly lower than the control group (p<0.01). In the case of lead and cadimum, mean value of criminal group was significantly higher than control group. Significantly higher T-score of MMPI was seen in non-violent criminal group fur psychopathic deviate (Pd), paranoia scale (Pa), and Mania scale (Ma) than control group, but T-score of depression scale (D) was significantly higher in the control group. In the non-violent criminal group, the content of copper inversely proportion to T-score of Hs, D, Hy, Pd, Mf, Pa, Pt, Sc, Si except Ma, also Zinc inversely proportion to T-score of Hy, Mf, Pa, Pt. These results suggest that difference of some hair mineral contents exist between criminal and normal control group. Thus further studies are necessary to determine whether violent and nonviolent criminal group attributed biochemical imbalance with carefully constructed and controlled studies.

최근 스마트폰의 과다 사용과 관련한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 스마트폰 디톡스라는 새로운 개입방법이 소개되고 있다. 스마트폰 디톡스는 마치 단식을 통해 몸에 있는 독소와 노페물을 제거하듯이 스마트폰 사용을 잠시라도 중단하고 내면의 모습을 돌아봄으로써 스마트폰을 건강하게 활용하여 신체적 정신적 사회적 건강을 실천하자는 취지이다. 이러한 흐름에 발을 맞추어 본 연구에서는 대학생들의 과다한 스마트 폰 사용을 개선하고 전인적인 건강(well-being)을 실천하기 위하여 "스마트폰 디톡스 프로그램"을 개발하고 그 효과를 확인하였다. 서울의 S대학교 16명의 대학생이 전체 프로그램을 완료하였으며, 각 회기별 자기평가보고서와 사전-사후 설문조사(스마트폰 중독척도 정신건강척도 긍정심리자본척도 자기생활관리척도)를 완성하였다. SPSS 23을 이용하여, 사전검사와 사후검사에서 변수 간의 차이를 확인하기 위해 Wilcoxon 부호순위검정을 시행하고, 각 척도들 사이의 관계는 피어슨 상관분석을 이루어졌다. 그리고 자기평가보고서는 각 회기 참여에 대한 질적 자료로 분석되었다. 그 결과, 개입 프로그램을 통해 스마트 폰 중독 및 정신 건강 점수가 유의미하게 감소하였으며, 자기 관리 및 긍정심리자본의 평균 점수가 증가하였다. 더불어 프로그램이 진행되는 동안이라도 스마트폰 사용을 중단하고 건강한 신체, 긍정적인 정신, 역동적인 대인관계를 경험하면서 스마트폰을 지혜롭게 사용하고 주변을 여유롭게 돌아보는 변화가 생겼으며, 대학생들의 생활에서 스마트폰을 건강하게 사용할 수 있는 모습이 확인되었다.

The purpose of this study was to develop the Resilience Scale for Children(RSC) and to evaluate its reliability and validity. The RSC was administered to 482 children in grades 4 through 6. Factor analysis of the 30 item scale demonstrated Cronbach's ${\alpha}=.89$ for internal consistency of total items. The results of the confirmatory factor analysis supported a five-factor structure. Retest stability was acceptable for the five-factors. Tests of the present scale for criterion-related validity compared favorably with Self-Perception Profile for Children (Lee, et al., 1992) and the Stress Coping Behavior Scale for Children (Kim and Kang, 2003) confirming its applicability to elementary school students for assessment of resilience.
