The purpose of this study is to examine methodological issues of empirical research using survey methods in Journal of the Korean Society of Clothing and Textiles. We reviewed 95 articles from Journal of the Korean Society of Clothing and Textiles in 1996, 1998, and 2000. Methodological issues were categorized into four areas: questionnaire and scale development, sampling and collecting data, variable construction, and external validity(generalization). In each imp, a check list was made and 95 articles were reviewed based on this limit. Major findings were discussed and some suggestions were made for future research.

We compared the effectiveness of amidase (amano acylase, AA) and an endopeptidase, (trypsin, TR) in modifying the hydrophobicity of polyamide fabric. We evaluated the number of amino groups released into the reaction mixture in order to optimize the treatment conditions. We found that a large number of amino groups were released into the reaction mixture due to the cleavage of amide bonds by AA hydrolysis; however, the TR hydrolysis exhibited a relatively lower activity compared to AA hydrolysis. In AA and TR hydrolysis, significant differences were observed in the K/S values and moisture regain. Amide bonds in polyamide fabric were hydrolyzed by AA hydrolysis effectively. Compared to TR, AA formed more hydrolysis product (amino groups) on the fabric surface. Thus, the hydrophobicity of polyamide fabric was modified using AA hydrolysis (as verified by the wettability test) without any deterioration of fiber strength.

This study aimed to investigate the effect of design factors of woven textiles on the consumer's sensibility and emotion. 60 textile design pictures and 18 adjectives were prepared to get responses from 512 adult subjects. Textiles designs were analyzed into 9 design factors, such as, motif source, motif-background ratio, motif interpretation, motif arrangement, motif variation, motif articulation, hue contrast, value contrast, and chroma contrast. The results are followings: 1) The design factors of textiles were connected to other design factors, for example, the type of motif interpretation determined the type of chroma contrast, motif source, the ratio, and chroma contrast significantly. 2) The correlational coefficients of the ratio, motif variation, chroma contrast, hue contrast, articulation, and value contrast were positively signed significantly. 3) Consumer's sensibility was changed in urban, natural, graceful, mannish, young, dynamic, new, modem and etc, as the textile designs were changed in motif source, arrangement, hue contrast and etc.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences of clothing majors and non-majors in clothing knowledge and consumption behavior. Subjective and objective knowledge were compared and factors of clothing consumption behavior were analyzed across the two groups. The subjects of this study were female student who went to University in Seoul. Data from 150 college female students were analyzed using SPSS. Results indicated that clothing majors had significantly higher level of clothing knowledge. The differences were smaller for subjective knowledge levels than objective knowledge levels. Clothing majors tended to reform their clothes and coordinate their clothing items better than non-majors. They considered styles more importantly than brands but have some level of conformity. Among clothing consumption behavior factors, reform ability and coordination ability significantly affected clothing knowledge.

The purpose of this study was to examine fashion luxury brand purchasing behavior among young women, and to find variables which influenced on their behavior. 993 women living in Seoul and its suburb were surveyed for this study. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, factor analysis, ANOVA, and regression were used for this study. As the result, approximately 66.3% of respondents had purchased fashion luxury products before such as Burburry, DKNY, and Louis Vuitton. Generally, the frequencies of purchasing toward the luxury products were associated with materialism, conspicious consumption, reference group influence, and ethnocentrism. Also, results revealed that materialism and conspicuous consumption accounted for 43% of the explained variance in the frequency of purchasing products. Based on these results, fashion marketing strategies would be suggested.

This paper proposes a geometrical method for generating and draping the skirt 3D models. The method constructs a 3D basic skirt model using a truncated elliptical cone and generates the various skirt 3D models by controlling the elliptical cone. The B-Spline approximates the 3D drapes which change variously according to the angles and the textiles of the skirts. The mapping sources consist of the textile textures and the skirt 2D model. The 2D models are obtained by mapping the 3D skirt models to the 2D plane. The mapping sources allow us to map the textiles to the 3D skirts. We make the real skirts for the 6 kinds of angles and textiles. and investigate the data of their drape appearances. The investigated data are applied to the virtual skirts. Appearances of the virtual skirts are similar to those of the real.

The effect of padding solution on the microwave heat dyeing of polyester fabric was studied extensively. Polyester fabrics were impregnated in aqueous urea solution and aqueous sodium chloride solution for 10 min and then dyed for 7 min by microwave apparatus (2450 MHz, 700 W) under optimum conditions which provide good exhaustion. Aqueous solutions of urea and sodium chloride showed more effective than water as a padding solution for microwave heat dyeing. The type of solvent added in padding media and its concentration significantly affects the K/S values of dyed polyester fabric. Added solvents such as n-hexane, acetone, and dimethyl formamide were also more effective than 100 % water as padding media for the microwave heat dyeing. It is supposed that the effect of used solvents on dyeing property of polyester fabrics depends on the solubility parameter difference between solvent and polyester fabric.

In the 21st century, the lining design has been interpreted from diverse perspectives, as one of important elements in fashion design. The purpose of this study is to build up the foundation of elementary resources for Korean styled lining design. For this, it was understood through the theoretical research with respect to the history of lining. In order to preparing the standards to develop the lining design in a Korean image, the photos of women' swear collection taken from 2005 SIS to 2009 F/W and the results of marketing research on the women'swear industry were used for the analysis which are studied in three categories: brand symbolism, cultural identity and vogue. Based on these, the design was carried out.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the visual effect of stripe patterns in one-piece dress. The results of the visual effects are as follows; 1. Comparision with experimental stripe patterns; experimental stripe patterns are likely to appear to be fat and wide in shape, and to be rhythmic, active, modern, unstable, not beautiful and dislike in sense. 2. The correlation between terms; there is a considerable correlation between 'the whole body looks fat 'and' the upper body looks fat'(r=0.84) when experimental stripe patterns are compared with vertical stripe pattern. When experimental stripe patterns compared with horizontal stripe patterns, there is a considerable correlation between 'rhythmic' and 'active' (r=0.90). 3. The results of factor analysis: commonly, factor 1 resulted in character of bodily shape and factor 2 resulted in sensuous charactor.

Eco-friendly processing using enzymes has been focused in textile industry in order to reduce environmental pollutions. This paper was suggested to hydrolyze non-cellulose, such as fats and waxes in cotton fabrics by lipase treatment. Enzymatic treatment conditions were controlled according to pH, temperature, enzyme concentration, and treatment time. The physical properties of the lipase-treated cotton fabrics were evaluated by measuring weight loss, moisture regain and dyeing properties. The surface morphology of lipase-treated cotton fabrics were observed by SEM. As a result, the optimum conditions for the lipase treatment were at pH 4.2, temperature 50$^{\circ}C$, concentration 50%, and treatment time 90 minutes. Calcium chloride and Triton X-100 were effective auxiliaries in lipase treatment.
