The prognosis of the laryngeal diseases is highly dependent on the early diagnosis and treatment. The biopsy finding is inevitable for the cofirmed diagnosis. A clinico-statistical survey of the biopsy result of the larynx in 142 cases was done at the Department of the Otolaryngology Seoul National University Hospital during a period of 3 yrs from 1973 to 1975. Results are as follows 1. Of the 142 cases, 109 cases (76.8%) were males and 33 cases (23.2%) females. Sex ratio was 3.3 : 1. 2. Age distribution shows 41 cases (28.8%) in 5th decade, 41 cases (28.9%) in 6th decade. 3. Chief complaint was hoarseness 127 cases (89.4 %), dysphagia 7 cases (4.9%) and sore throat, dyspnea etc. The time lag from the onset of hoarseness to the hospital was 2∼6 Months, 56 cases (44.0%), 6 Months∼l yrs, 34 cases (24%), within 2 Months, 17 cases (13.4%) and 15 cases (11.8%) were over 3yrs. Average time lag was 8.1 Months. 4. The site of laryngeal biopsy was 76 cases (53.3 %) from ture vocal cord, 23 cases (16.2%) from false vocal cord, and 19 cases (13.3%) from epiglottis. 5. Biopsy result was carcinoma in 69 cases (48.6%), laryngeal nodule in 20 cases (14.0%), laryngeal tuberculosis in 12 cases (8.4%) and non specific inflamation in 7 cases (5.0%). 6. 13.4% of the clinically impressed laryngeal carcinoma proved to be laryngeal tuberculosis, nonspecific inflammation etc.

This paper explored consumers' LoHAS purchasing behavior and factors influencing the behavior, including' self-construal, and LoHAS values, attitudes and behavior. First, this study investigated how self-construal affected LoHAS values, and then analyzed how LoHAS values influenced LoHAS attitude and behavior. Last, this study is to examine how the relationships among LoHAS values, LoHAS attitude and behavior are moderated by consumers' gender. We administerd a survey with undergraduates attending a university located in the metropolitan area. The analysis results indicate that interdependent self-construal affects LoHAS values. According to the analysis, both environmentalism and sustainability of LoHAS values also affect LoHAS attitude, and then the attitude influences LoHAS behavior. In addition, the results show that the relationships among LoHAS values, LoHAS attitude and behavior are not moderated by consumers' gender. This study shows the casual relationship between variables including self-construal, LoHAS values, attitude and behavior. In particular, this finding confirms that self-construal as one of psychological factors affects LoHAS consumers' values and behavior. Finally, based in the findings of this study, theoretical contribution and managerial implications are discussed.

This Research focuses on the effect of location-based mobile advertisement considering both of product involvement and advertising expression. The product involvement is classified as high and low involvement and forms of text and picture advertising, which are commonly used in mobile advertising, are chose in this research. To verify the advertising effect for location-based mobile advertisement, advertising attitude, brand attitude, and purchase intention are assessed by conducting survey experiment, which is stimulated for the location-based mobile advertisement including product involvement and advertising expressions. The results presented in this research indicate that the low-involvement product shows lower advertising effect rather than high-involvement product, because consumers recognize the mobile advertisement with low-involvement. The Second finding is that the effect of picture mobile advertising is more effective than that of text mobile advertising and this result is consistent with previous researchers. Finally, the favorable effects for location-based mobile advertisement is more effective than that of non-location-based mobile advertisement, because location-based mobile advertising can cause the immediate response for consumer to react with given advertising.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the level of mother's caregiving satisfaction of a person with mental disorder and factors influencing to it as a positive aspect of caregiving experience. A survey conducted upon 231 mothers who live together with their adult-children with mental disorder through community mental health centers, social rehabilitation facilities and day hospitals. Collected data were analysed by t-test, Oneway-ANOVA, hierachical multiple regression analysis, and so on. The results are as follows: 1) The mean of mother's caregiving satisfaction is 3.06 in 5 point scale. Among the total items of the caregiving satisfaction scale, the means of the items 'finding strength through caregiving' and 'personal growth through caregiving' are higher than any others. 2) In the final regression model, statistically significant factors influencing to the caregiving satisfaction are 'the relationship quality between mothers and the mentally disordered', 'perceived social support from family, significant others, and friends', 'marital status of mothers', and 'family income'. Better relationship quality between mothers and the adult children with mental disorder and higher social support from family, significant others, and friends explained higher caregiving satisfaction of mothers. The level of a widow or divorced mother's caregiving satisfaction is higher than married one. The less family income affected to higher caregiving satisfaction. Variables related to mental disorder of adult-children, such as social function, years of mental disorder and frequency of hospitalization were not statistically significant influencing factors to mother's caregiving satisfaction. Through this research, the implications of social work practice were suggested in many ways.

In order to create value for maritime tourism industry, new port infrastructures have been planned, improvements in passenger terminal services have been designed, and new maritime transport technologies have been applied, so that ports improve their efficiency and the quality of their service more than their national and international competitors. Thus, the purpose of this study is to verify the dimensions of the service quality of ocean passenger terminal. Based on a survey of 260 customers in port of Busan and Inchon, terminal service quality's five main dimensions have been checked regarding their fit with the use of Confirmatory Factor Analysis. Empirical results support that this is a valid instrument for measuring service quality of a ocean passenger terminal. The interactive sequence of computing Cronbach's alpha, corrected item-to-total correlation, and factor analysis was repeated a few times and resulted in a final set of 19 items representing five distinct dimensions-tangibles, responsiveness, knowledge, reliability, and accessibility. This finding provides the more appropriate instrument to evaluate the customers perception as well as to measure the service quality of ocean passenger terminal.

This study establishes the research model and sets up the hypothesis in order to analyze the effect of the type of mixed manning and the ratio of foreign crew on the group cohesiveness, job satisfaction and organizational commitment in ship organizations and the moderating effect of the acceptance and adaptation of cross-culture. For statistical hypothesis testing, it conducts a questionnaire survey targeting mixed manning ships and examines empirically the inter-variables relation through the regression. The result of empirical research is that the group cohesiveness, job satisfaction and organizational commitment in the ship organization of Korean master(chief engineer) and foreign officers is higher than that of Korean master and officers. Moreover, it is found that the group cohesiveness of 31~50% foreign crew group is less than that of the others. However, There is no moderating effects of the acceptance and adaptation of cross-culture. Additionally, it demonstrates the higher job satisfaction and organizational commitment in the stronger cohesiveness groups. The finding suggests the rationale that shipping and ship management companies could raise the group cohesiveness, job satisfaction and organizational commitment by moderating the type of mixed manning and the ratio of foreign crew.
