  • Internet communications have provoked new forms of online word-of-mouth(WOM) communication and it has become more powerful. At this point, this study analyses the effects of information characteristics(direction, consensus) of online WOM. Especially, quasi-experiment can systematically manipulate the direction and the consensus of online WOM information and it perceived the difference in the effects in this study. Female consumers who have purchased clothing at online shopping mall in past 6 months participated in the experiment by completing 4 type questionnaires(N=600). Data are analyzed using Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, t-test, one way ANOVA, two-way ANOVA, Duncan's multiple range test. The Results of this study are as follows: (1) The direction of online WOM information significantly influences consumer's reliability of information, attitude, and purchase intentions. These effects are more significant when negative WOM information than positive information and two-sided information was given. (2) Though there is the difference in reliability of information, the consensus of online WOM information does not have influences on consumer's attitude and purchase intentions. (3) Consumer's clothing involvement is related to WOM information searching. The highly involved consumer is more effected by online WOM information than the lowly one.

  • This paper deals with optimal mooring system to secure fish cage in a desired location, Through field investigation and paper works, we surveyed disasters by breakdown of cage frame and mooring system due to higher wave attack and selected compliant buoy mooring method for shallow water mooring system against severe coastal external forces. To analyze interaction between external forces and compliant buoy mooring system, theoretical model has developed as quasi-static nonlinear analysis. After verifying the feasibility of the numerical model compared with experiment, static analysis has tried for various mooring systems with different angle of array, number of mooring points, length of horizontal and inclined rope. Optimal mooring method using compliant buoy has selected for fish cage through numerical simulation. This results can apply for preliminary design for cage mooring system.

  • Compared to metal, CFRP has excellent mechanical characteristics in terms of intensity, hardness, and heat resistance as well as its light weight that it is used widely in various fields. Therefore, this material has been used recently in the aerospace field. On the other hand, the material has shortcomings in terms of its extreme vulnerability to damage occurring internally from an external impact. This study examined the intensity up to its destruction from repeated use with the internal impact of a CFRP laminated plate that had also been exposed to external impact obtain design data for the external plate of aircraft used in the aerospace field. For the experimental method, regarding the quasi-isotopic type CFRP specimen and orthotropic CFRP specimen that are produced with a different layer structure, steel spheres with a diameter of 5 mm were collided to observe the resulting impact damage. Through a 3-point flexural fatigue experiment, the progress of internal layer separation and impact damage was observed. Measurements of the flexural fatigue strength after the flexural fatigue experiment until internal damage occurs and the surface impacted by the steel spheres revealed the quasi-isotopic layer structure to have a higher intensity for both cases.

  • In this paper, gain enhancement of a double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna using a meanderline array structure was studied. A 4×1 meanderline array structure consisting of a meanderline conductor- shaped unit cell is located above the second dipole of the double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna. It was designed to have gain over 7 dBi in the frequency range between 1.70 and 2.70 GHz in order to compare the performance with the case using a conventional strip director. As a result of comparison, the average gain of the double dipole quasi-yagi antenna with the proposed meander line array structure was larger compared to the case with the conventional strip director. A double dipole quasi-Yagi antenna using the proposed meanderline array structure was fabricated on an FR4 substrate and its characteristics were compared with the simulation results. Experiment results show that the frequency band for a VSWR less than 2 was 1.55-2.82 GHz, and the frequency band for gain over 7 dBi was measured to be 1.54-2.83 GHz. The frequency bandwidth with gain over 7 dBi increased, and average gain also slightly increased, compared to the conventional case using a strip director.

  • Two-dimensional spin-up in a rectangular domain is analysed by the numerical computation of the Navier-Stokes equations. The cells are in most cases generated by the vorticity developed near the uper and lower surfaces. Moreover, the movement and interaction of those vortices play a key role in establishing the quasi-steady state. The critical phenomena observed in the previous experiment turns out to be caused by the critical movement of the vortices.

  • Melting and crystallization are not reversible because supercooling is always needed for crystal growth. But, recently reversible melting and crystallization phenomena in semi-crystalline polymers, based on modulated differential scanning calorimetry(MDSC) with quasi-isothermal experiment mode were observed in the melting range and continuously proved by others.

  • This paper evaluates the static and fatigue bending strengths of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) laminates subjected to hygrothermals. The specimens which had different stacking composition, orthotropic and quasi-isotropic laminated plates, were prepared for this experiment. A steel ball launched by the air gun collides against CFRP laminates to generate impact damages, and the 3-point fatigue bending test is carried out by using the impacted laminates to investigate the influence of hygrothermals on the effect on the residual bending fatigue strength of CFRP laminates.

  • The electronic behavior of a organic metal $(BEDT-TTE)_2$${Cu_5}{I_6}$ observed to be stable at low temperatures was examined by performing tight-binding band electronic structure calculations. The suppression of a metal-insulator tansition is likely to originate from its quasi-two-dimensional Fermi surface with no nesting, in agreement with experiment.

  • The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of analytic rubrics on learners' self-directed learning ability in information technology unit assessment. The experiment and control groups were 4 classes of the 2nd grade in B middle school located in Daejeon. The pretest was performed to check the group homogeneity. For the experiment design, the nonequivalent control group design as a type of quasi-experimental design was used. The experiment was composed of 5 sessions. Statistical significance was p < .05 to verify the hypothesis, and SPSS 12.0 for Windows was used for statistical treatment. The results from this study were as follows: (1) The application of analytic rubrics in information technology unit assessment affected learners' self-directed learning ability in a positive way in 4 factor's(openness, self-concept, intrinsic motivation, self-evaluation) but does not affected in 3 factor's(autonomy, creativity, problem solving). (2) The difference in sex was not a statistically significant factor in the application of analytic rubrics in information technology unit assessment. Based on the results of the experiment, two suggestions were made to promote the application of rubrics in technology education assessment. (1) Research and development of many types of rubrics for technology education are needed. (2) Systematic training of rubrics for technology teachers is needed.

This exploratory study was designed to a quasi-experiment of pretest-postest with a non equivalent control group. Subjects of 40 patients who were discharged from a mental hospital in Pusan were selected to be experiment and control group, with each group consisting of 20. The research period was from March, 6 to May, 29, 1999 and the pre-post test was given before and after implementing MSSE to the both experiment and control group. The results finding were summarized as follows ; 1. subjects who attended self-care education scored significantly higher than control group in quality of life.(Z=-2.06, P=0.034) 2. Those who were in the experiment group reported more significant higher scores than control group in item of quality of life, living situation(A=-2.62 P=0.012), relations with spouse (Z=-2.31 P=0.038) and children (Z=3.37, P=0.008), fear (Z=-1 95, P=0.049) and anger(Z=-2.07 P=0.041), work functioning (Z=-2.34, P=0.021), environmental adjustment.
