Purpose: This study was performed to identify workers' Job stress status and to analyse the influencing factors. Method: Data were collected from 456 workers with Korean Occupational Stress Questionnaire Short Form(KOSQ SF) and analysed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA. Results: Total job stress status of men was slightly lower than Korean workers' standard. In case of women, the score of total job stress was lower than Korean workers' standard. The most significant influencing factors to stressors were insufficient sleeping time and self cognitive bad health condition. Among seven domains of job stressors, job demand was affected by 8 characteristics. Conclusion: This study indicated that workers' job stress level were various by their characteristics except workplace size. The development of stress management programs by types of industry is required. On the base of the model program, planning of customized program for every company or employee is required. High job demand, insufficient job control, insufficient sleeping time, bad health condition are the key factors of workers' job stress in this study. The change of workers' health behavior with supportive environment is essential to stress management program. More researches for adding physical environment domain to KOSQ SF are expected.

Background and Objectives: Conflicting mechanisms have been reported about spontaneous reversal of positional nystagmus during head-roll maneuver in patients with benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). The objective of this study is to review the reports about the characteristics and possible mechanisms of reversing positional nystagmus and to present seven new cases. Subjects and Methods: Seven cases (5 males, 2 females; 4 left-sided, 3 right-sided) were recruited among 732 patients with BPPV seen outpatient clinic between 2009 and 2019. Diagnosis of lateral canal canalolithiasis was confirmed when transient geotropic nystagmus was documented during head-roll test. Reversing positional nystagmus was analyzed in each case and clinical characteristics of the patients were documented. Results: The age of patients was ranging between 30 to 64 years (46.44±10.91). Duration of symptoms was short (21.34±19.74). Six of them had a story of head trauma. Initial latency was short. First, intense geotropic nystagmus was observed following provocative head-roll position on the affected side. There was short "silent phase". Then, a longer second-phase of reversed nystagmus was noted. Total duration of nystagmus was 78.40±6.82 seconds. Maximal slow phase velocity was 24.05±6.34 deg/sec. All patients were cured with barbeque maneuver. Conclusions: Ipsilateral reversing positional nystagmus during head-roll maneuver is due to lateral canal canalolithiasis. Mechanism is likely to be due to endolymphatic double flow. Bilateral cases may be due to simultaneous co-existence of canalolithiasis and cupulolithiasis. Longer recording of nystagmus is recommended not to miss the cases with spontaneous direction-changing positional nystagmus.

DNA typing is the typical technology in the forensic science and plays a significant role in the personal identification of victims and suspects. Short tandem repeat (STR) is the short tandemly repeated DNA sequence consisting of 2~7 bp DNA units in specific loci. It is disseminated across the human genome and represents polymorphism among individuals. Because polymorphism is a key feature of the application of DNA typing STR analysis, STR analysis becomes the standard technology in forensics. Therefore, the DNA database (DNA-DB) was first introduced with 4 essential STR markers for the application of forensic science; however, the number of STR markers was expanded from 4 to 13 and 13 to 20 later to counteract the continuously increased DNA profile and other needed situations. After applying expanded STR markers to the South Korean DNA-DB system, it positively affected to low copy number analysis that had a high possibility of partial DNA profiles, and especially contributed to the theft cases due to the high portion of touch DNA evidence in the theft case. Furthermore, STR marker expansion not only contributed to the resolution of cold cases but also increased kinship index indicating the potential for improved kinship test accuracy using extended STR markers. Collectively, the expansion of the STR locus was considered to be necessary to keep pace with the continuously increasing DNA profile, and to improve the data integrity of the DNA-DB.

As information and business communication via Internet are growing up, web-based software is wide spread and more important on the viewpoint of software qualify than stand-alone. Research on verification of web content links and web-based Program was tried, but has short on covering various types of web based software and making experiments to be applied in real testing practice. This paper suggests a modeling technique to be applied to dynamic and various types of web-based software. First, it identifies each elements consisting of web-based software and then construct a model of Object Control Flow Graph and Object Relationship Diagram. We can generate test cases covering all test paths of ORD or invoking key points test route. Suggested modeling method and test case selection technique are verified by applying five types of web-based software and compared with other web-based test techniques.

In this study, investigated the effects of four strains belonging to Aspergillus oryzae on the quality of Kochujang. In the Koji and Kochujang making, investigated the difference of enzyme production of each strain, the change of each component and color during the aging, and tested the sensory taste. The results obtained were as follows; 1. Protease activity (acid, neutral) in wheat flour Koji was high in the case of Aspergillus $oryzae-S_1$ and Aspergillus oryzae - M of short stalked type. The strain Aspergillus $oryzae-S_1$ showed maximum activity after two days of Koji making, while the strain Aspergillus oryzae - M showed low activity till two days, but showed maximum activity after three days-four days of Koji making. 2. In $\alpha$-amylase activity, strain Aspergillus $oryzae-S_1$, Aspergillus $oryzae-S_2$ and Aspergillus oryzae - M showed high activity after two days of Koji making. Aspergillus oryzae-NB strain showed slower ${\alpha}$ - amylase activity than that strains. 3. In glucoamylase activity, all strain tested showed high activity after three days of Koji making, but st rain Aspergillus oryzae - NB showed slower activity than ot - hers. 4. In protease activity (acid, neutral) during the aging of Kochujang, strain Aspergillus $oryzae-S_1$ and Aspergillus oryzae - M of short stalked type showed higher activity than that of long stalked type. 5. Amino type nitrogen contents during the aging of Kochujang was very higher in the case of strains Aspergillus $oryzae-S_1$ and Aspergillus oryzae - M of short stalked type than other strains, and each contents was 315mg% and 337mg% after aged for ninty days. 6. The results that analysed free sugar of Kochujang aged for ninty days with HPLC were; glucose 5.84~7.13%, fructose 4.13~5.00%, rhamnose 0.91~1.04%, maltose 0.72~0.92% and presence of xylose was recognized. 7. The results that analysed alcohols of Kochujang aged for ninty days with gas chromatography were; ethanol 1.51~1.78%, n-propyl alcohol 1.13~1.20mg%, iso-amyl alcohol 3.5~4.4mg%. 8. In the sensory test of Kochujang aged for sixty days and for ninty days, the case of strains Aspergillus oryzae-M and Aspergillus $oryzae-S_1$ of short stalked type showed good taste, while the case of strains Aspergillus $oryzae-S_2$ and Aspergillus oryzae-NB of long stalked type showed good flavor and color.

The purpose of this study is to define the shear reinforcing effect of Near-Surface-Mounted (NSM) FRP strips in reinforced concrete (RC) member through a test. Three T shaped RC beams were made and two of them were strengthened with NSM FRP strips for increase shear strength. And those were tested to find the shear strengthening effect. In the test, two case of shear strengthening methods were considered such as 1) with NSM FRP strips having full embedded length and 2) with NSM FRP strips having some what short embedded length and additional externally bonded FRP sheet. As a result, the shear strengthening effect could be obtained when the NSM FRP strips are embedded to have full length up to the bottom of slab. However the shear strength was not increased in the case of having somewhat short embedded length of NSM FRP strips even additional EB sheet was enhanced.

This study attempted to: (1) operate a Strengths-based case management program; (2) determine the effectiveness of strengths-based case management for the elderly; (3) evaluate the effect of the coordinating program on the capabilities of ADL, IADL, and life-satisfaction of the elderly. The subject of this study was 8 home-bound elderly in lowest income class in Gwang-ju City. The program was practiced from November 2008 to April 2009 for 6 months period. The outcome of study has shown that strengths-based case management has determined a fair of amount of effectiveness in carrying out their short-term tasks. The program tried to assess the strengths of the elderly, and evaluate the outcomes of the program using ADL, IADl items and life-satisfaction developed for the study. The data collected by pre-test and post-test of the program showed that the scores of life-satisfaction were improved statistically significantly. But capabilities of ADL, IADL items were slightly improved, but not statistically significant. Successive effort to operate strengths-based case management must be required for the improvement of capabilities of ADL, IADL, and quality of life of the elderly.
