Ryff's(1989) psychological well-being measure is used to assess and sometimes compare Korean and American adults, however, there is no information regarding whether its dimensions are psychometrically invariant across, whether its items provide sufficient information for, and whether each item measures identical trait levels in, the two nations. Confirmatory factor analysis on response 1,696 Korean and 3,669 American adults, gave to the measure revealed lack of fit and absence of factorial invariance across the two nations. Item response theory revealed significant variance for items on each factor across two countries that most items yielded limited psychometric information. And that each item measure different trait levels, suggesting that in its present form, the measure might lead to misleading results for, and across the two nations.

A lens system for mobile phone cameras is comprised of various lenses and designed so as to satisfy design requirements for responses such as a modular transfer function (MTF). However, it is difficult to manufacture and assemble camera modules to maintain the same performance compared with the designed camera modules, because of uncertainty. We should always design a lens system by considering uncertainty that can be caused by errors in the manufacturing and assembly process of mobile phone cameras. The robust optimization offers tools of making robust decisions with the consideration of design parameters, uncontrollable parameters, and the variance of the system. Using an efficient reliability analysis method and an optimization algorithm, we obtained robust optimization results that maximize the mean of MTF and minimize the standard deviation and proposed a new robust design process for a lens system.

The Purpose of this study was to identify the constructing factors of female suit image. The questionnaire consisted of 69 words expressing suit image were developed, and six suit slides were selected for stimulus. Sixty-eight female university students majored in clothing and textiles were responded to each sledes, and then factor analysis was conducted. Six factors, such as attractiveness, peculiarity, grace, femininity, youthfullness, and comfort were found out as constructing factors of suit image(total vari-ance 60.5%) by the principal component analysis. The attractiveness factor which explained the largest variance included words such as countrified, refinement, and beautiful. Peculiarity factor included words such as peculiar, bold, complex, and decorative. Grace factor included words such as classic, grace, and elegant. Femininity factor included such as masculine, feminine, soft, and dressy. Youthfullness factor included words such as youth, bright, and charming. And comfort factor included words such as casual, comfort-able, active, and natural. The Cronbach's $\alpha$of the each factors were. 78~92.

Quite often normality assumptions are not satisfied in practical applications. In this paper, an estimated generalized least squares(EGLS) analysis are considered in two way mixed linear models with arbitrary types of distributions for random effects. We investigate the power performance of EGLS analysis based on Henderson's method III, ML, REML and MINQUE(1). The power performances depend on the imbalance of design, on the actual values of ratio of variance components, and on the skewness and kurtosis parameters of the underlying distributions slightly. Results of our limited simulation study suggest that the EGLS F-statistics using four estimators and arbitrary distributions produce similar type I error rates and power performance.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of financial attitudes and financial communication on financial satisfaction. For this study, in 2000, questionnaires developed by the researcher were given to 320 households in Kwangju. resulting in 262 households with usuable data. The data were analyzed by various statistical methods such as frequency, percentile, correlation analysis, t-test, Anova, Multiple Regression analysis. The major findings of this study were as follows; 1) Financial attitudes were significantly different according to age and monthly savings 2) Financial communication was significantly different according to age and financial subjective variables. 3) Financial satisfaction was significantly different according to monthly income, monthly savings, monthly living costs, debt, financial subjective variables and financial communication. The set of socio- economic characteristics variables accounted for 3% of the variance in the financial satisfaction. But the addition of subjective characteristics variables, financial attitude, financial communication resulted in an $R^2$ change of 20, 23, 26%.

This study examined the relationships between textile fiber preference(natural, synthetic, blended) and the perceived importance of textile properties, knowledge of textile fibers and demographic variables, focused on children's outdoor clothing. Subjects were 291 mothers with preschool children. Data were collected using a self-administered questionnaire and analyzed using analysis of variance and crosstabulation analysis. The results indicated that; (1)preference of fiber was significantly related to the perceived importance of textile fiber properties concerning flame resistance, absorbency, and hand. (2)blended fiber preference group had more knowledge on textile fibers than the other groups. (3)preference of fiber was significantly related to the perceived differences of textile performance characteristics in comfort. (4)None of demographic variables influenced textile fiber preference. (5)No difference in price consideration was found between the textile fiber preference groups.

The paper describes on the implementation of marine casualty prediction model that is one of the main part of Marine Casualty Forecasting System (MCFS). In this work, Cell Distributed Linear-In-the Parameter (CD-LIP) model is developed and compared with Baltic model using regression analysis of variance. As comparing, it is known that the proposed CD-LIP model has less residual than the Baltic model and, it gives best performance to the marine casualty numeric D/B of target area.

This paper presents an overview of position-based routing algorithms. We analyze performances of routing algorithms such as Hybrid Opportunistic Forwarding (HOF), Opportunistic multi-hop routing (ExOR), Location based Geocasting and Forwarding (LGF), and Greedy Forwarding in nearest with forward Progress (GFP) routing algorithms to find the best one in terms of packet error rate and throughput efficiency over effects of fading and noise variance in wireless networks. The analyses in closed form expressions are confirmed by the simulation results, which fully agree to analysis results. Additionally, the simulation results indicate significant differences among algorithms when varying the average SNR or the number of relays.

A typical unsteady internal ballistic analysis model was proposed to take account of the erosive burning with the variance of local velocity and pressure along the grain surface of a solid rocket combustor. To validate the model of concern in the study, both cases of non-erosive and erosive burning were compared with the previous researches with marginal accuracy. It was quantitatively investigated that the combustion pressure, grain length, initial temperature, and vaporization temperature of propellant affect the erosive burning characteristics.

Purpose: To study the perception and satisfaction of in-person and online classes for dental technology students. Methods: A total of 420 questionnaires were distributed to dental technology students between June 1 and June 30, 2021. Of these, 225 questionnaires were assessed using frequency analysis, one-way analysis of variance, Pearson's Chi-squared test, and independent t-tests via IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 22.0 (IBM). Results: For theory subjects, satisfaction was higher for online classes than in-person classes (p=0.001). For practical subjects, satisfaction was higher for in-person classes than online classes (p=0.002). Both the learning effect and motivation for learning were higher for in-person classes than online classes (p=0.001). Conclusion: When in-person and online classes become coexistent, there should be educational guidelines for improving the quality and effectiveness of learning in these different contexts.
