Providing care to the dementia elderly with behavioral problem is a major issue in nursing homes today. This study was aimed to explore the nursing staffs′ response to aggressive dementia patients, and the effect that the aggressive behavior had on Nsgstaff. The interviews used a semi-structured questionnaire are were carried out from May to July, 1999. The subjects were 23 nursing personnel working in the nursing homes for dementia elderly. The result are as follows; 1. The types of aggressive behavior cited by the subjects was "physical", "linguistic", and "sexual". 2. The factors that caused the behavior were "symptoms of disease", "under- conditioning", "context of nursing care", "unsatisfied need", "relationship to other patients", "change of outer environment", and "invasion of one′s own privacy". 3. The response of the subjects were "unhappiness", "stress", "anger", "exaggeration", "anxiety", and "fear". 4. The management strategies listed by nursing personnel used to alleviate aggressive behavior were "ignorance" "patience" "leaving the area" "soothing sounds" "verbal punishment" "restriction and isolation" and "various management skill appliance" "adaptation". 5. The effect that aggressive behavior and were "disturbance of relationship to elderly" "decline in the amount and quality of nursing care" "interruption of task performance" "job exhaustion" "desire to leave the job" "physical impact" "stress on the cognition of others" "anxiety about health and one own future" "interference to family life′. The findings of this study will be useful in understanding the difficulties of nursing personnel when confronting the aggressive behavior of dementia partients. It also is useful as basic data in preparing efficient intervention program for these difficulties.

The purpose of this study was to identify emotional responses, of stroke patients using Q analysis. From the data analysis, five types of emotional responses in stroke patients were classified as follows. 1. Acceptance and Overcoming : They attached to life strongly and had self-confidence of recovery. They were striving against their situation through using anything else good for their recovery. 2. Anger Type : They recognized a labile feeling and were angered easily. They had a self-confident and self-esteemed personality before they had a stroke. 3. Conflict Type : They wanted interaction with others. This individual recognized that no one knows their agonies. They were thankful to god or their family, while they could not control their minds. Their family supports were low. 4. Deficiency of self-esteem Type : They had a self-confidence of recovery, but they were in fear of interaction with others. Especially, they were ashamed of themselves. They have a high sense of responsibility and nigh self-esteem for themselves before they had a stroke. 5. Despair Type. : They were sorry to trouble their family. They felt depression, anxiety, darkness, uselessness of themselves, and they wanted to die. They recognized financial burden. for their family. The characteristics of the five types of stroke patient identified in this study will be used to assess emotional nursing needs for stroke patients. The findings of this study will provide practical guidelines for developing nursing interventions for stroke patients based on the characteristics of subjectivity types.

A fuzzy PID controller is proposed for the posture control of a two DOF robot vehicle inspecting the defects of the inner wall of sewage pipes. The main difficulty in controlling these kinds of vehicles lies in that the center of two mobile shafts does not coincide with the weight center of the vehicle due to its long and wide shape. In this case the previous controller, based on the assumption that the gap between these centers are small, can not guarantee satisfactory transient response characteristics. In this paper, this gap is included in the mathematical modelling of the robot kinematics, and in order to compensate the unsatisfactory transient response characteristics, the fuzzy PID controller is proposed. This controller tunes the PID control gains with respect to the current state of the errors between the reference and the current postures. A series of simulations has been performed to investigate the tracking performance of the proposed controller for the lane changing path and the robustness to the external disturbance. The simulation results show that the proposed controller has a satisfactory tracking performance in the transient state as compared with that of the backstepping control given in reference.

The flow ratio in the industrial process is usually accomplished by using PID controller with series type ratio. But always the large overshoot and a long rise time may be achieved from this conventional control. These problems are involved to the inexact flow ratio control. In order to avoid this poor performance. the paper presents a designing of the two controller modes for the flow ratio plants. This proposed controller combine the lookup table technique and the well-known PID controller to obtain the fast response and low overshoot of flow ratio control. The PID controller mode will be operated when the flow ratio reaches the preset value while the lookup table technique mode is applied for initial operation. The data in tile table is calculated by the valve sizing equation and convened to the valve position control signal. The experimental results show that the transient and steady state responses of the control systems using the proposed technique can be efficiently obtained when compared with tile conventional controller.

This study was performed to understanding on guidelines for using therapeutic modalities according to injury phases of soft tissue. Clinical decisions on how and when therapeutic modalities may be used should be based on recognition of signs and symptoms. as well as some awareness of the time frames associated with the various phases of the Healing process. The physical therapist must have a sound understanding of that process in terms of the sequence of the various process of healing stage. The results of this study are as follows: 1. Once an acute injury has occured, the healing process consists of the imflammatory response phase, the fibroblastic-repair phase, and the maturation-remodeling phase and can impede by various pathologic factors. 2. Modality use in the initial acute injury phase and the inflammatory response phase should be directed toward limiting the amount of swelling and reducing pain. 3. Modality use in the Fibroblastic repair phase may be change from cold to heat. The purpose of heat is to increase circulation to the injured area to promote healing. 4. During the Maturation-Remodeling phase, some type of heating modalities, ultrasound, or short wave and microwave diathermy should be used to increase circulation to the deeper tissue. In this phases, physical therapists must control training and conditioning habits to allow the injury to heal sufficiently.

In this present study, the correlation between subjective preference of essential odors and EEG response were investigated quantitatively. EEG signals were measured from 19 electrodes according to the International 10-20 system (Fpl, Fp2, F2/4, F7/8, Fz, C3/4, Cz, P3/4, Pz, T3/4, T5/6, Ol/2) from 8 healthy males subjects in four odor conditions. Four odor conditions (Rose oil bulgarian, Lemon oil misitano, Jasmin abs, Laverder iol france (KIMEX co. Ltd)) were applied for each subject in the experiment. Through the subjective evaluation, the most pleasant odor for each subject was determined. The power spectrum of ${\alpha}$/${\beta}$ of EEG signals from the most pleasant odor was compared with those from the control condition, which has no odor at all. It was observed that the power spectrum of ${\alpha}$/${\beta}$ of EEG from the most pleasant odor was increased significantly on F3, F3, F4,74 comparing to the control condition. This result indicates that the power spectrum of ai${\beta}$ could be a new index for measuring the levels of pleasantness of odors.

This study examined the categories and contents of technology that is recently influencing the fashion design. For this, the cases of global companies integrating fashion design and technology were examined, and the types of technology integration studies within the field of fashion design were analyzed through the trend of fashion-technology integration in domestic academic circles released since 2000. According to the case of global companies integrating fashion design and technology, various companies and fashion brands have released fashion products that are integrated with technology, and such integrations are developing up to the field of fashion shows and displays in addition to fashion products. The analysis of studies related with fashion and technology in the design field showed that domestic studies on fashion-technology integration were manifested as the types that applied various technologies to the fashion design. Such types were categorized into the studies that applied light-emitting technology, studies that focused on the integration of interaction and textile design, studies that applied response-perception, studies that used attached electronic devices, and studies that used autogenic bacteria. The fashion has less negative impact on body and environment compared with other areas, and therefore, is the best area for the experiments in IT, bio, and electronics areas and for the integration of fashion and technology. Moreover, studies on fashion that suggest the capability in developing and industrializing cases through the collaboration with other fields such as IT, bio, and electronics shall continue.

The purpose of this work was to investigate the induction of stress shock proteins (SSPs) in Burkholderia sp. YK-2 in response to 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), and Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12 to benzoate, 4-chlorobenzoate (4-CBA), 4-hydroxybenzoate, and biphenyl. The SSPs, which contribute to the resistance of the cytotoxic effect of the toxic aromatic compounds including 2,4-D and 4-CBA, were induced at different concentrations of the compounds in exponentially growing cultures of Burkholderia sp. YK-2 or Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12. This response involved the induction of a 43 kDa DnaK and 41 kDa GroEL proteins in Burkholderia sp. YK-2, characterized by SDS-PAGE and Western blot using the anti-DnaK and anti-GroEL monoclonal antibodies. In Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12, 70 kDa DnaK and 60 kDa GroEL proteins was induced as SSPs, respectively. The total SSPs were analyzed by 2-D PAGE. Survival of Burkholderia sp. YK-2 or Pseudomonas sp. DJ-12 with time in the presence of different concentrations of the compounds was monitored, and viable counts paralleled the induction of the SSPs in these strains. Cells treated with the increased concentrations of toxic compounds showed some destructive openings on the cell envelopes.
