본 논문은 한국노동패널(KLIPS) 자료를 활용하여 국내 노동시장에서의 인적 네트워크 활용의 효과성을 검증하고 임금근로자 개인의 구직 네트워크 가치를 추정하였다. 흔히 인적 네트워크를 활용한 이직을 '연줄' 혹은 '정실인사'라고 하여 부정적으로 보는 견해가 많으나, 본 연구는 인적 네트워크가 이직자와 구인자 사이의 정보전달기능을 수행함으로써 사회 전반의 일자리 매치(job match)의 적합성을 증대시키는 긍정적 기능을 수행하고 있음을 입증하고 있다. Propensity Score Matching 방법론을 활용하여 검증한 결과, 자발적 이직자들의 이직을 네트워크형 이직과 비네트워크형 이직으로 구분하여 보았을 때, 네트워크형 이직만이 교육수준 및 기술수준의 적합도를 각기 (100점 만점에서) 2.13점과 2.52점 개선시키는 것으로 확인되었으며, 이러한 적합도의 개선은 월 4.074만원(2010년 기준)의 임금상승효과로도 재확인되었다. 덧붙여, 이를 활용하여 임금근로자 개인의 구직 네트워크의 가치를 추정해 보면, 구직 네트워크의 생애 금전적 가치는 1,872.0만원으로 집계되었으며, 여기에 주관적 만족도에 대한 보상측면까지 고려하면, 만족도 1점의 현금가치를 n만원으로 환산할 때, 대략 (1,872.0+758.2n)만원에 이르는 것으로 집계되었다.

Objectives: This research has executed a new oral health promotion program among the elderly residents of a long-term care center, which purpose was to verify its effectiveness of oral health promotion through the improvement of their oral function. Methods: This study has selected the elderly over the age of 65, capable of communication, who use a long-term care center over the period of two months between July and September 2014. The subjects who remained until the final analysis numbered 50 excluding the dropouts during the program session (experimental: 33, control : 17). The oral stretching program was exercised two days a week, for total of two months. Each function was assessed by the standardized methods and measurement equipment. Also the sum of each function was converted into the oral health grade. Results: The oral function score of the experimental group also showed a statistically significant difference after the execution of the program, where the oral function score of experimental group increased $6.70{\pm}1.30$ from $4.95{\pm}0.89$ after the execution of the program (p<0.05), while the comparison group showed no valid statistical difference with the score result of $5.00{\pm}0.87$ down from $5.11{\pm}0.93$ after the execution of the program (p>0.05). Conclusions: Therefore if the oral health promotion program is reflected to the welfare policy in the future, it can be said that it contributes to the improved health status of the elderly who reside in the long-term care centers.

Objectives : Research on the effect and satisfaction between Acupuncture Treatment, Physical Treatment and contemporary Treatments of Acupuncture and Physical of lumbago patients Methods : We separated lumbago patients into three groups. A group with only Acupuncture Treatment and a group with only Physical Treatment and a group with contemporary treatments of Acupuncture and Physical. Questionnaire survey and score of Visual Analog Scale(VAS) and Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) were examined for comparison. Results & Conclusion : 1. Of the 54 patients Acupuncture Teatment group had 17 patients with similar ratio of gender and the average age was 39.5 years old. For the Physical Treatment group the ratio of male was 75% of the 8 patients and had the youngest average age which was 29.1 years old and the group with contemporary Treatments the ratio of female was 62% of 29 patients and had the oldest average age which was 46.7 years old. 2. The Acupuncture Treatment group had the shortest treatment period because of many acute stage caused by lumber sprain and the improvement score was the best. The group of contemporary treatments had the longest history day and treatment period by serious disease like HIVD and spinal stenosis but the improvement score of VAS and ODI was good similar to the Acupuncture Treatment group. For the Physical Treatment group there was many patients with degenerative change but not severe pain. The VAS, ODI and the improvement score was the lowest before and after the treatment.

Purpose: The pharyngeal flap is one of the popular surgical method to treat the problem of velopharyngeal dysfunction. This study evaluated speech outcomes of patients who underwent superiorly based pharyngeal flap surgery based on timing of surgery. Methods: A restrospective review of 50 patients who underwent pharyngeal flap surgery for velopharyngeal insufficiency between September 1996 and January 2008 was undertaken. Thirty patients with an available preoprative and postoperative speech assessments with at least 6 months of follow-up were included in this study. We checked out the significance of speech improvement after surgery analysing preoperative and postoperative scoring of speech assessment. We also investigated the direct relationship between the age at surgery and the degree of speech improvement, and the improvement score in different age groups. Results: The mean score of preoperative speech was $52.6{\pm}7.4points$ and postoperative speech was $58.6{\pm}6.5points$, which presented significant postoperative speech improvement with an average of 5.9 points(p<0.01). There was a significant inverse relationship between the age at operation and speech improvement degree(p<0.01, r = -0.54). Comparing the age groups, the age group of 4 to 5 years presented statistically significant speech improvement(p<0.01). Conclusion: we propose that all patients indicated should take pharyngeal flap irrespective of age. In this study, the younger the age at surgery, the higher degree of speech improvement, for which we suggest that surgical approach should be undertaken as early as possible, especially younger than age 5 years.

The purpose of this paper is to study the links between manufacturing strategy and change programs of manufacturing firms in Korea. The nature of our analysis is more descriptive than normative or confirmative. First, we investigate the linkage between manufacturing strategy, manufacturing capability, change programs and performance measurement systems. Secondly, we intend to explore an empirical typology of manufacturing strategy and change programs. The initial findings of the study are as follows: Linkage between manufacturing strategy and change programs of manufacturing firms was not apparent. Flexibility as a strategic priority is positively related to the innovative change programs. There are two distinctive strategies of manufacturing firms in Korea, namely, quality strategy and balanced strategy. We identified three types of change programs, which are incremental change, administrative innovation, and process innovation. Incremental change group has represented low factor score in the change program dimensions. The firms in administrative innovation group mainly depend on information systems and business reengineering. Korean manufacturing firms seem to pursue process improvement by trying simultaneously incremental change in the process, managerial process improvement, and a little bit of innovative change. Performance variable utilization of the firms are not significantly different along with manufacturing strategies and change programs. We found, however, learning and improvement performance dimension is significantly related to flexibility variables. Process innovation group marked high score in usage of learning and improvement indices. The findings of this study seem to have various implications on realigning the manufacturing strategy, change programs, and performance systems in Korean firms.

1. Objective: The aim of this study was to report significant improvement of tinnitus and insomnia after treatment with Cheongsimyeonja-tang in a Taeeumin patient with Idiopathic Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss(SSHL) that accompanied with Tinnitus. 2. Method: We measured the hearing recovery. For diagnosis on this case, pure tone audiometry was used. The degree of improvement was evaluated by Siegel's Criteria. Visual Analogue Scale(VAS) and Tinnitus Handicap Inventory(THI) were also used to assess tinnitus objectively. 3. Result: There was no improvement in pure tone audiometry by Siegel's Criteria. However, VAS score was decreased from 10 to 1 and THI score was also decreased from 74 to 48. 4. Conclusion: A patient with SSHL, who has little possibility of recovery of hearing loss, was treated with Cheongsimyeonja-tang in a short period and significant improvement in tinnitus and insomnia was observed. We consider that consistent treatment of Cheongsimyeonja-tang can contribute to improve the hearing loss.

The UK Met Office Unified Model at the KMA has been operationally utilized as the next generation numerical prediction system since 2010 after it was first introduced in May, 2008. Researches need to be carried out regarding various physical processes inside the model in order to improve the predictability of the newly introduced Unified Model. We first performed a preliminary experiment for the domain ($170{\times}170$, 10 km, 38 layers) smaller than that of the operating system using the version 7.4 of the UM local model to optimize its physical processes. The result showed that about 7~8% of the improvement ratio was found at each stage by integrating four factors (u, v, th, q), and the final improvement ratio was 25%. Verification was carried out for one month of August, 2008 by applying the optimized combination to the domain identical to the operating system, and the result showed that the precipitation verification score (ETS, equitable threat score) was improved by 9%, approximately.
