Living culture, which is a pattern of peoples' everyday living, is influenced by the socio-economic conditions as well as ideology of the society. south and North Korean societies have been segregated during the past 50 years with different socio-those two societies share the same traditional culture. This project was developed to identify the differences in living cultures between South and North Korean societies, and to make suggestions for their successful integration. The first part of the project was concentrated on finding out the current living culture of North Korean families. References on North Korean living culture were reviewed, and North Korean movies related to family living were also analyzed. Besides, in depth interview was conducted with ten people who escaped from North Korean after 1990. The subjects with various demographic backgrounds were asked about lifestyles concerning food, clothing, housing, time management, consumption, child rearing, and family living that they experienced when they were in North Korea. The subjects were also asked to respond to the questionnaires measuring collectivism, materialism, and familism, which were developed for the study to find out the relationship between value orientation and lifestyles. This study revealed differences in many aspects of living cultures of South and North Korea, and relationships were suggested between value orientation and lifestyle. This exploratory study was intended to provided ground for more objective study with large number of subjects in the following year.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influential variables of impulse buying for jewelry. A survey questionnaire was developed from previous researches. Data were obtained from female consumers who have purchased jewelry products living in Busan. The results showed that impulse buying of jewelry was influenced by shopping orientation, consumption value, store attributes, store types, and demographic variables. The impulse-buyers of jewelry were more likely to be recreational and fashion-oriented shoppers and to have store/brand loyalty than unimpulse-buyers. Additionally, they perceived importantly the uniqueness, newness or fashionability of jewelry, kindness of salesperson, store atmosphere, various design and assortment, and special sales of the jewelry store. They were more likely to patronize the department store and franchise store to purchase jewelry products. They also tended to spend more for jewelry and more frequently visit the jewelry store. Findings should provide the informations to assist marketers and researchers in their understandings of the jewelry market.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether elementary children's time-use and self-regulated learning ability was different according to gender and whether children's gender and time-use effects self-regulated learning ability. Participants were 2,122 children who participated in KCYPS longitudinal study from their first grade to third grade. Time-use was reported by children's parents. Children's self-regulated learning is invented by Yang(2000). Components of self-regulated learning scale was achievement value, mastery goal orientation, action control, academic time management. The major findings were as follows. First, children's self-regulated learning was different according to chidren's gender. Girls' achievement value, mastery goal orientation, academic time management scores were higher than the boys'. Second, children's daily time was different according to their gender. Third, children's daily time-use affected their self-regulated leaning, however children's gender didn't.

Zinc Oxide(ZnO) thin films on Si (100) substrates were deposited by RF magnetron reactive sputtering. The characteristics of zinc oxide thin films with changing sputtering conditions such as argon/oxygen gas ratios, RF power, and substrate temperature, chamber pressure and target-substrate distance were investigated. To analyze a crystallographic properties of the films, $\theta/2{\theta}$ mode X -ray diffraction, SEM, and AFM analyses. C-axis preferred orientation, resistivity, and surface roughness highly depended on Ar/$O_2$ gas ratios. The resistivity of ZnO thin films rapidly increased with increasing oxygen ratio and the resistivity value of $9{\times}10^7\;{\Omega}cm$ was obtained at a working pressure of 10 mTorr with Ar/$O_2$=50/50. The surface roughness was also improved with increasing oxygen ratio and the ZnO films deposited with Ar/$O_2$=50/50 showed the excellent roughness value of $28.7{\AA}$.

To verify the cause of high productivity in Typha stand, leaf area index(LAI), leaf orientation and inclination, specific leaf area (SLA), and radiation interception profiles were determined in a natural Typha$\times$glauca stand. Throughout the growing season, the leaf inclination has been kept at near-right angle and leaf orientation has been random. These chracteristics were responsible for an uniform spatial arrangement of the leaves within the canopy and could be explained by the SLA value, which increased in their higher strata. The extinction coefficient (K) of the canopy, 0.12 to 0.20, was one of the smallest value out of terrestrial plant communities. At least more than 25% of full radiation penetrated into the lowest stratum of the canopy. High productivity of the Typha would be attributed to efficient penetration of the radiation in virtue of the stiff and straight leaves even though rather small LAI.

This study aims to explore and understand better how consumers' value orientation relates to consumer's intention to use and Word-of-Mouth behaviors in using Web sites. Consumers have perceptions of the shopping value they acquire during their experiences in navigating Web sites. This consumer's shopping value is considered as utilitarian shopping value, information shopping value, and hedonic shopping value. The current paper proposes that value orientation of consumers in Web sites would consequently affect consumer attitude such as intention to use and Word-of-Mouth. In addition, the research investigates the moderating effect of consumer's personality between consumer's shopping value and consumers' attitude in Web sites. For testing the hypothesized research model, survey and Lisrel analysis are conducted. The findings emphasize that online providers need to focus on the perceived values most salient to consumers in order to improve their profitability. Furthermore, providers may also identify the reason why consumers perceive these values much lower when using the Web sites.

The purpose of this study is to analyze work values of undergraduates according to major and gender. The result of this research is following. First, undergraduates from engineering and social science department took a very serious view of achievement and leasure of body and mind in work values. Second, undergraduates made much of achievement, job stability, leasure of body and mind, economic compensation and reputation. And undergraduates thought that internal value orientation was more important than external value orientation. Third, two groups had significant difference in service, knowledge pursuit, patriotism, economic compensation, reputation, and indoor activity. Fourth, the result of this analysis according to gender is following. Male undergraduates made much of leasure of body and mind, achievement, job stability, knowledge pursuit, and economic compensation in order. But female undergrduates made much of economic compesation, leasure of body and mind, achievement, and job stability in order. Fifth, that undergraduates make little of domain of service and patriotism gives a suggestion as to improvement of course education. As a result, this study is suggestive of instruction and advice in course search curriculum.

Three-dimensional heat transfer characteristics for natural convection flows are numerically investigated in the doubly-inclined cubical-cavity according to the variation of a newly defined orientation angle �� of the hot wall surface from horizontal plane at moderate Rayleigh numbers. Numerical simulations of laminar flows are conducted in the range of Rayleigh numbers($10^4{\leq}Ra{\leq}10^5$) and $0^{\circ}{\leq}{\alpha}90^{circ}$ with a solution code(PowerCFD) employing unstructured cell-centered method. Comparisons of the average Nusselt number at the cold face are made with benchmark solutions and experimental results found in the literature. It is found that the average Nusselt number at the cold wall has a maximum value around the specified orientation ${\alpha}$ at each Rayleigh number. Special attention is also paid to three-dimensional thermal characteristics in natural convection according to new orientation angles at Ra��= $1{\times}10^5$, in order to investigate a new additional heat transfer characteristic found in the range of above Ra = $6{\times}10^4$.

In this study, in order to measure energy-absorbing characteristics in impact test of CFRP thin-walled laminates and interpret the cause of decreasing age when collapse test is carried out under the environments of high temperatures and hygrothermals, the moisture absorbing behavior according to the variety of orientation angle is observed and impact collapse characteristics of no moisture absorbing status is compared with that under the environments of high temperatures and hygrothermals. Especially, we try to obtain quantitative design data to develop CFRP thin-walled laminates with energy characteristics of optimum impact absorbing. The value of the maximum loading, mean loading, rate of energy absorption energy per unit volume and mass in CFRP thin-walled laminates on the high temperatures and hygrothermals is measured much lower than under no moisture absorbing. The maximum collapse loading in dynamic impact test is taken measurements lower than in static collapse test CFRP circular laminates in high temperatures and hygrothermals. But the absorbed energy per unit mass and volume is almost same each other and the biggest amount of energy is shown in CFRP circular laminates with orientation angle of $15^{\circ}$. Therefore, in the case of using CFRP circular laminates with axisymmetric mode, CFRP thin-walled structural members with orientation angle of $10^{\circ}$, $15^{\circ}$ has generally best condition.
