This study attempts to identify the problems in applying the deliberative polling method within the Korean cultural context. The deliberative polling method uses information distribution and group discussion to encourage the poll participants to be informed on and deliberate the issues, so that they may express their elaborate informed opinions when surveyed after discussion. One of the criticisms is that having all the poll participants assemble in one location may result in lower level of poll participation and accordingly a less representative sample. Also, the assumption that group discussion will bring about deliberation has not been tested. Some research suggests that in certain Asian cultures, group discussion is not widely used for conflict resolution or consensus building. Thus this study proposes that the mere utilization of a group discussion method does not necessarily imply that the participants have actually deliberated the issues. A telephone survey of one thousand Koreans over the age of 20 was conducted. The survey results show that group discussion is not a common way to discuss controversial issues in Korea, and would contribute to a low participation rate. It is the conclusion of this study that alternative deliberation methods need to be developed.

In this study, the vertical distribution of giant jellyfish analyzed echo counting method and such survey methods as sighting and trawl were used to compare its density estimates. In May and July 2021, surveys were conducted in the East China Sea and the coastal waters of Korea. As a result, Nemopilema nomurai were evenly distributed in all water layers in East China Sea in May and July. When considered the correlation by each survey methods, it is possible to identify jellyfish in the surface area by sighting method and using sampling net; however, it has a low correlation with acoustic estimates due to marine environmental factor such as weather condition, wind and atmospheric pressure. Therefore, the result can be utilized by basic data when estimating jellyfish's distribution patterns and density estimates from each survey methods hereafter.

This study derived the success factors of youth enterprises by applying the Delphi Method to start-up experts. Through this, it aims to improve understanding of youth enterprises in entrepreneurship education and start-up support projects and contribute to the development of education and support programs suitable for youth enterprises. Also The purpose of this study is to help youth entrepreneurs solve their curiosity about the success factors of youth enterprises, identify the factors that youth entrepreneurs should first secure or perform among the factors they need to consider during start-ups, and use limited resources efficiently and effectively to succeed. In this study, the Delphi Survey was conducted twice in total. The first Delphi Survey utilized the Modified Delphi Method using structured closed-ended questions, and a pilot test was conducted on youth entrepreneurs and start-up experts to compensate for the problem of the Modified Delphi Method. In the first Delphi Survey, IBM SPSS Statistics 22 and Microsoft Office Excel 2016 were used to calculate the mean, standard deviation, median, interquartile range, and content validity ratio. In the Delphi 2nd survey, the same statistical values in the 1st survey and additionally cronbach's alpha were calculated. As a result of the Delphi Survey, four factors, such as the entrepreneurial characteristics, entrepreneurial preparation, entrepreneurial strategy, and entrepreneurial environment, and 22 sub-factors were derived as success factors for youth enterprises.

This paper discusses the central issues of election studies and in this contort, suggests the panel survey method as an alternative to general opinion surveys. In doing so, it also explains the advantages and benefits that a panel survey provides, and discusses the weakness of the 2006 panel survey. East Asia Institutes, constructing the consortium which includes JoongAng Ilbo, SBS, and Hankook Research, traces the change in voting decisions during the 2006 Korean Local Elections. Four regional panels, focusing on the gubernatorial elections in Seoul, Pusan, Kwangju, and Chungnam, enable researchers to study the critical issues of election studies such as the causal relations among a set of voting determinants, the impact of campaigns, and the characteristics of floating voters.

Electromagnetic and electric surveys were performed to reveal the deep structure of the Yangsan fault in the Bong-gye and Unyang areas, Kyeongnam Province, Korea. Especially, high-frequency magnetotelluric (HFMT) method of EM survey was mainly employed to study the deep subsurface configuration of Yangsan fault. HFMT survey was performed at 25 points of spacing 50 m, making 1.3 km survey line in Unyang area and 13 points of spacing 50 m, making 0.6 km survey line in Bong-gye area. Two 2-D cross-sections (Unyang and Bong-gye areas) were achieved as results. Electric survey by dipole-dipole array was performed to study the structure of shallow subsurface and compare the results with HFMT surveys. The results of HFMT and electric surveys show that Yangsan fault is a geologic boundary. It is very narrow and steep (about $80^{\circ}C$), and extends to 1~1.5 km depth.

To examine the current states of community survey performance with its contents and methods, a questionnaire survey was made for 92 public libraries in Seoul, Gyeonggi, and Incheon area. 47 libraries(70%) have conducted community survey during last 5 years. The frequency has increased since 2001. Considering the content item as separate entity, the average is 1.7 times per library. The main purpose of the survey was to understand the resident's need and a questionnaire survey method was applied dominantly. Problems involved with the lack of budget, time, and the librarian's ability are identified as obstacles. Based on the analysis, recommendations such as acknowledgement, administrations and financial support, establishment of standards, education and train information are suggested to promote the community survey.

In the analysis of categorical data subject to misclassification errors, the observed cell proportions are adjusted by a misclassification probabilities and estimates of variances are adjusted accordingly. In this case, it is important to determine the extent to which misclassification probabilities are homogeneous within a population. This paper considers methods to evaluate the power of chi-squared tests for homogeneity with complex survey data subject to misclassification errors. Two cases are considered: adjustment with homogeneous misclassification probabilities; adjustment with heterogeneous misclassification probabilities. To estimate misclassification probabilities, logistic regression method is considered.

Most of national-wide surveys are summarized by some statistical tables and graphs. In spite of high costs to get statistical results from surveys, we often find some statistical problems in the statistical reports. In this paper, we point out some statistical problems for the Korean Anthropometric Survey report. Also, we suggest some alternatives which may avoid the illustrated problems.
