Purpose: This study aimed to determine the correlation between uncertainty, self efficacy, social support, and self-care performance among liver transplant recipients. Methods: Participants comprised 111 liver transplant recipients who visited the outpatient clinic at the hepatobiliary and pancreatic surgery department of a hospital in D city. Data were collected from September to October 2021 using self-report questionnaires, and were analyzed by the SPSS 23.0 program. Results: Self-care performance was correlated with uncertainty (r=-.31, p=.001), self efficacy (r=.22, p=.023), and social support (r=.38, p<.001). Conclusion: To improve self-care performance in liver transplant recipients, it is necessary to develop nursing interventions that can reduce uncertainty and enhance self efficacy and social support.

The purpose of this study Is to investigate what types of internal capabilities are mainly supported by information system applications that have been introduced in organizations during the last three years, and to examine the relationships between information systems' support on internal capabilities and organizational performance are differed with the organizational size and the type of industry. This study is also to suggest a few research propositions that can be applied to empirical studies dealing with the relationship between organizational performance and information systems' support on organizational capabilities in the future. To accomplish these research purposes, this study performed a survey and 101 responses were used for statistical analysis. The research results are as follows: First information systems' applications introduced into organizations during the most recent 3-year period, were mainly used to support the production/service capability, leading to an improvement of both the product and the service and reinforcement of task efficiency in the organizations. Second the support of information systems' applications on the production and service capability of organizations influenced organizational performance in a positive manner. Third, the relationship between organizational performance and support of information systems on organizational capabilities was partially differed by organizational size and the type of industry, the organization is involved in. Fourth, two research propositions that can be applied for empirical studies in the future were suggested with regard to the relationship between organizational performance and support of information systems on organizational capabilities, based on the statistical analysis.

The main purpose of this study is to analyze the relationships between the R&D characteristics and R&D performance for Korean enterprises. We divided R&D performance into technological and business launching performance and analyzed four R&D characteristics' effect on the performance. The empirical analysis results can be summarized as follows: First, R&D characteristics of enterprises show a strong relationship with R&D performance in the case of R&D process control. Second, firm capability and information routine positively affect to technological performance at 0.1 significant level but not showing significance in the case of business launching performance. Third, managerial support negatively affects to technological performance but dose not show statistical significance. Its effect on business launching performance, however, shows positive and significant effect.

The behavior of an opening and the performance of support system depend upon the load-deformation characteristics of ground and support as well as of the manner and of timing of support installation. The load-deformation characteristics of ground and support are derived by the interaction between ground and support. The interaction between ground and support is qualitatively illustrated by a ground response curve. The behavior of an opening and the performance of support system depend upon the load-deformation characteristics of ground and support as well as of the manner and of timing of support installation. The interaction between ground and support is qualitatively illustrated by a ground response curve. The convergence-confinement method don't need the basic assumptions for a mathematical model. Also This is applicable to general tunnel. Consequently the stability of tunnel must be qualitatively investigated by a ground response curve and quantitatively adjudged by a numerical analysis for the reasonable design of tunnel.
