Objectives : This study was conducted to investigate differences in psychological characteristics between major depressive disorder (MDD) patients with and without suicide attempt using MMPI-2-RF. Methods : Subjects were 107 MDD patients who had visited the department of psychiatry of hallym university hospital and met the DSM-IV diagnostic criteria of MDD by the korean version of MINI-Plus 5.0.0. The patients were divided into suicidal attempters (n=43) and non-suicidal attempters (n=64) using C-SSRS. The one-way ANOVA was used to compare MMPI-2-RF scale scores between two groups. Additionally, ANCOVA was conducted considering the severity of depressive symptom and comorbidity as covariate. Results : Our results showed that Suicide/Death Ideation (SUI), Inefficacy (NFC) and Interpersonal Passivity (IPP) scales were significantly higher in the MDD patients with suicidal attempt compared to MDD patients without suicidal attempt (p<0.05). However, after controlling for the severity of depressive symptom and comorbidity, SUI scale showed a significant tendency (p<0.10). Conclusions : The result suggests that MMPI-2-RF scales could be a useful tool for identifying patients transitioning to actual suicidal attempts in the moderate or severe major depressive disorder group. Limitations of this study and directions for further research are also discussed.

The structure of universities needs to be adjusted and reformed to cope with the decrease in admission resources and the quality of education due to the low birth rate and aging population. Such a policy is receiving much attention. To analyze the relative efficiency of private universities in Korea from the perspective of resource and performance, this study evaluated the efficiency of private university operation by applying a DEA(Data Envelopment Analysis) technique. The DEA measurements were compared with the diagnosis results of the department of education (Government) in 2018. The input and output variables used in the research analysis were utilized by the university's notification materials (public disclosure information). An analysis of the operational efficiency showed that 48% (12 universities) of the 25 DMUs (Decision Making Unit) were efficient for DEA-BCC models and that some of the capacity-building universities were operating efficiently. In addition, the DEA analysis found ways to improve inefficient groups through DEA-Additive results. This paper can be meaningful because it confirmed the relative efficiency of private universities and suggested improvement directions through the DEA method, which is characterized by the simultaneous consideration of various input and output factors. This will help apply the limited resources related to the input and output elements of each university.

In this study, data on the study site for apartment construction was acquired, and the quantity of construction waste was calculated using a drone and mobile 3D laser scanner. The accuracy of the drone was 0.034 to 0.064m in the horizontal and vertical directions, respectively, and the mobile 3D Laser Scanner showed an accuracy of 0.018 to 0.049m in the horizontal direction, respectively. These results suggest that it is possible to construct spatial information using a drone and mobile 3D laser scanner with a value within the allowable accuracy of 1:1,000 digital terrain. The volume of construction waste calculated using the mobile 3D laser scanner data was 70,797㎥. It was possible to calculate the volume on the side of the building or some facilities that appeared as shaded areas in the drone outcomes. In addition, modeling was performed for view analysis of the apartments scheduled to be constructed and the terrain-based modeling results of the surrounding buildings. In the future, data construction and accuracy evaluation using mobile 3D laser scanners will be conducted. In addition, additional research comparing existing methods and work processes will be carried out, and the efficiency of mobile 3D laser scanners in the field of spatial information construction can be presented.

With the continuing development of the global economy, the scale of international production and management of companies is expanding rapidly nowadays. As a result, it is increasingly important for multinational companies to establish appropriate marketing strategies for products in order to successfully enter overseas markets. When consumers evaluate the quality of products from various countries, they depend heavily on the image of the product as well as the price of the product. Therefore, this study aim to find out how the price, country image, brand image and country of origin image affect on consumer product evaluation and purchase intention. Based on these concepts, the significance of this study is helping local companies make more appropriate marketing strategies by understanding the importance of price and image of a product to companies and knowing more accurate recognition in Korea and Korean-made products of Chinese consumers. The results of this study which used AMOS model showed that 1) The country image and country of origin image for a product had a positive effects on product quality, 2) The price and country image of a product had a positive effects on service quality, 3) And evaluation of product had a positive effects on purchase intention. Based on these results, we made some proposals and presented the future research directions according to the limitations.

This paper describes a method of building Korean conversational speech data in the emergency medical domain and proposes an annotation method for the collected data in order to improve speech recognition performance. To suggest future research directions, baseline speech recognition experiments were conducted by using partial data that were collected and annotated. All voices were recorded at 16-bit resolution at 16 kHz sampling rate. A total of 166 conversations were collected, amounting to 8 hours and 35 minutes. Various information was manually transcribed such as orthography, pronunciation, dialect, noise, and medical information using Praat. Baseline speech recognition experiments were used to depict problems related to speech recognition in the emergency medical domain. The Korean conversational speech data presented in this paper are first-stage data in the emergency medical domain and are expected to be used as training data for developing conversational systems for emergency medical applications.

The information security disclosure system (ISDS) has been implemented since 2016 to ensure the protection of stakeholders and the right to know, and to promote voluntary investment in information protection by companies. Regarding the information security disclosure system, there have been studies that urge the implementation of the system, but studies that analyze the contents disclosed after the implementation of the system or suggest improvement directions are few. In this study, the contents of the information security disclosure system that had been announced on the information security industry promotion portal until 2019 were analyzed, the current status was summarized, and the direction of system improvement was suggested. In some cases, companies that disclosed information through the disclosure system increased the number of personnel in charge and obtained certifications related to information security, but did not find any effect on the increase/decrease in investment. The current disclosure system has not been activated because it has difficulty in giving individual companies incentives to disclose. Thus, this study suggests the inclusion of ISDS to information security management system (ISMS), which is currently mandatory for certain companies. In the current disclosure system, it is difficult for the company's stakeholders or customers to check the contents of the disclosure. As a way to do this, a method of including in the contents of the personal information processing policy or the notification of the use of personal information was suggested.

It has already been a few years since the word Fintech in Korea started to attract attention. These days, they believed that Fintech was just a boom, but these days it is recognized as a catalyst for financial transformation. Large venture companies are also launching demonstration experiments by creating new organizations that can respond to Fintech. It feels like a big tide is coming to the cautious and conservative financial industry. Finance is made up of digital information. Fintech is an evolutionary process in which finance, expressed by digital information, is transformed into information technology (IT) and human economic activities are reorganized. It is FinTech. You won't be able to understand the real effects of Fintech by sticking to individual applications like remittance payments or household account book services. Fintech is an innovation that changes the structure of economic activity itself. In fact, it is from now on that a big impact will come. In other words, now is the time when we are thinking of a dream that we have not yet dreamed of. In this paper, I will examine how fintech originated, spread to Korea, and how it intends to change Korea's finance in the future. Financial institutions have used the fruits of information technology advances in the direction of pursuing stability and stability, without major changes in the way they work. However, the movement of Fintech that started in Silicon Valley in the United States shows that the fruit can be used in other directions. The fruit of technological progress is expected to expand year by year in the future. It is a request of the times to use it to improve user convenience and to pursue innovation that is beneficial to society. We expect the flow of Fintech to accelerate innovation in the Korean financial industry.

The selective public-benefit direct payment is a system that provides subsidies to farmers that improve the public benefit of agriculture. However, there are limits in improving the public benefit since the current system simply integrates the prior direct payment system. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the public benefit of agriculture by reorganizing the implementation framework. This study uses the analytic hierarchy process and analytic network process to set the priority of the system and propose an implementation framework. A survey was conducted targeting 51 experts for about two months from August 2020. Study results show that the most important goal of the system is its effectiveness. The public beneficial implementation framework of the selective public-benefit direct payment is bundle type. Meanwhile, the effects of the subcategories of the bundle type lack research. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct a pilot project for the bundled type system and systematically establish policies by analyzing the effects of the pilot project. This study provided indicators about policy directions through the evaluation of the selective public-benefit direct payment (plan). The results of this study are expected to provide an objective basis for government policies related to the reform of selective public-benefit direct payment systems in the future.

The shift in the perspective on learning as participation draws attention to learners' identity work. This manuscript foregrounds the ongoing and fluid processes of identity, and focuses on the structure surrounding learners where identity work occurs and the expression of individual agency. From the perspective of learning as participation, we introduce Holland et al. (1998) identity-in-practice theory, as the theoretical lens that dialectically describes structure, agency and identity. The concepts representing this theory are 'figured world', 'positionality' and 'authoring self'. The figured world is a web of meaning encompassing the continuous construct/reconstruct through human actions and also exerts as the social force that shapes human actions. 'Positionality' on the other hand, means an understanding of one's social position in the world. The notion of 'authoring self', is a dimension that synthesizes the above two concepts, which describes the improvisation of one's self through the orchestration and collaboration of various social voices. Next, we analyzed and described various cases of this theory that we found within the scope of science education. However, due to the nature of this theory, which takes a sociocultural approach, international research studies cannot be simply applied to the Korean context. Therefore, we sought to expand the applicability of this theory as a methodological tool, by discussing the directions in which this theory can be used in a domestic context. It is intended that the introduction of this theory, which emphasizes multi-layered, continuous and cumulative identity work, will be used as a resource to further expand the horizon of science education reform that is required for the times.
