  • This study investigates the various statistical data and measures of coauthorship network in the Korean LIS Research Community such as patterns of coauthorship, structural properties, types of cluster, centrality & impact analysis. This issues are mostly addressed through a Social Network Analysis of articles published from 2000 to 2009(10 years) in Korean Library & Information Science major four Journals. The coauthorship network was constructed and various measures of four centralities, PageRank, Effect size were calculated. The results show three implications. 1) There presents a phenomenon of Pareto's law in the articles publishing counts. 2) The top authors based on publishing counts prefer co-work publishing than solo-publishing. 3) The counts of article publishing are significantly correlated with five measures of network and not correlated with the case of power centrality.

  • Air transport markets are composed of airlines' networks through their base airports. The analysis of an air transport market has been focusing on determining the efficiency or competitiveness of airports or airlines in the market using number of routes, number of passengers, transfer rates, revenues, costs, and other data. However, little work has been done in analyzing the airport network itself. Assuming the air transport markets of Korea, China, and Japan are integrated, this paper aims to analyze the characteristics of the resulting airport network. To that end, the degree of connectivity, the degree of closeness, and the betweenness of centrality are employed. The analysis shows that Incheon International Airport is better than most other airports in terms of the degree of connectivity and that of closeness. Airports in Japan, however, exhibit strong connectivity but weak closeness and betweenness of centrality. Although it has low connectivity, Shenyang Airport has a possibility of becoming an attractive point of the integrated market in the future due to its high degree of closeness.

  • With the advent of 5G communications, internet of vehicles technology has been widely used in vehicles. Then the dynamic spread of information between vehicles began to come into focus with more research. It is well known that the identification of nodes with great spread influence has always been a hot topic in the field of information spreading. Most of the existing work measures the propagation influence by degree centrality, betweenness centrality and closeness centrality. In this paper, we will identify influential vehicle nodes based on the mobility characteristics of vehicles to explore the information spreading between vehicles in VANETs. Different from the above methods, we mainly explore the influence of the radius of gyration and vehicle kilometers of travel on information spreading. We use a real vehicle trajectory data to simulate the information transmission process between vehicles based on the susceptible-infected-recovered SIR model. The experimental results show that the influence of information spreading does not enhance with increasing radius of gyration and vehicle kilometers of travel. The fact is that both the radius of gyration and the distance travelled have a significant influence on information spreading when they are close to the median. When the value of both is large or small, it has little influence on information spreading. In view of this results, we can use the radius of gyration and vehicle kilometers of travel to better facilitate the transmission of information between vehicles.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to identify the main keyword, network structure, and main topics of the national petition related to "nursing" in South Korea. Methods: Data were gathered from petitions related to the national petition in Korea Blue House related to the topic "nursing" or "nurse" from August 17, 2017, to May 9, 2022. A total of 5,154 petitions were searched, and 995 were selected for the final analysis. Text network analysis and topic modeling were analyzed using the Netminer 4.5.0 program. Results: Regarding network characteristics, a density of 0.03, an average degree of 144.483, and an average distance of 1.943 were found. Compared to results of degree centrality and betweenness centrality, keywords such as "work environment," "nursing university," "license," and "education" appeared typically in the eigenvector centrality analysis. Topic modeling derived four topics: (1) "Improving the working environment and dealing with nursing professionals," (2) "requesting investigation and punishment related to medical accidents," (3) "requiring clear role regulation and legislation of medical and nonmedical professions," and (4) "demanding improvement of healthcare-related systems and services." Conclusion: This is the first study to analyze Korea's national petitions in the field of nursing. This study's results confirmed both the internal needs and external demands for nurses in South Korea. Policies and laws that reflect these results should be developed.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this study was to identify the degree of work ethics of an occupational therapist and examine the correlation between work ethics and organizational commitment. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of occupational therapists' work ethics on organizational commitment. Through this study, we aim to determine the importance of work ethics and find a way to improve organizational commitment in occupational therapists. Methods : We conducted nationwide surveys on occupational therapists working in hospitals and other institutions from April 24, 2023 to May 30, 2023. We evaluated general characteristics, work ethics, and organizational commitment. General characteristics were analyzed using a frequency analysis. Work ethics and organizational commitment were examined using descriptive statistics. The correlation among work ethics and organizational commitment was analyzed using the Pearson correlation coefficient. Additionally, a multiple regression analysis was conducted to identify factors that affected organizational commitment. Results : The results of this study were as follows. First, the average score of work ethics was 3.32 ± .32. Second, a significant positive correlation was observed between work ethics and organizational commitment (p<.01). And as a result of the correlation between work ethics sub-factors and organizational commitment, wasted time (r=.261, p<.01), centrality of work (r=.366, p<.01), morality/ethics (r=.470, p<.01), leisure (r=.189, p<.05), delay of gratification (r=.410, p<.01), hard work (r=.437, p<.01), self-reliance (r=.233, p<.01) showed a statistically significant correlation. Third, the sub-factors of work ethics that influenced organizational commitment, including morality/ethics (𝛽=.302, p<.01), hard work (𝛽=.271, p<.01), and delay of gratification (𝛽=.205, p<.01) were identified. Conclusion : In conclusion, the results of this study underscore the importance of work ethics in influencing organizational commitment. Through this study, we recognized the importance of work ethics, which may serve as basic data to promote work ethics and improvement of organizational commitment.

  • The purpose of this research was analyzing pre-post change of concept recognition structure about happiness and activity in which medical school students feel happiness, in order to develop such curriculum accordingly. Research subjects included a total of 36 sophomores attending medical school, and a day reconstruction method and network analysis were applied. According to the research finding, while medical school students were experiencing a lot of happiness while eating/talking and doing leisure activities, the frequency of feeling happiness through learning activities was shown to be low. Words that expressed happiness before and after were similar in many parts and 'economy' showed the highest degree centrality before and 'work' showed the highest degree centrality after. Because the structure of the concept about happiness was divided from 1 group into 4 groups including one's work, positive self, health of family, value about life etc., perception of the concept about happiness was changed from the concept about superficial happiness to the concept about actual happiness. Therefore, in order for prospective doctors who will treat human health to establish the concept and value about happiness properly, education about happiness is necessary and for this, curriculum related to happiness must be developed systematically.

  • This study examined the antecedents of psychological empowerment at hospital organizations, and also examined their differential effects among occupational groups within hospitals: doctors, nurses, engineers, and administrative workers. Various variables for multi-level factors were examined as antecedents: tenure, income, work centrality, and career goal as personal factors, job variety, job clarity, job significance, and job fitness as job factors, and security, reward justice, and organizational support as organizational factors. Data were collected from 8 national university hospitals, and 1,289 data were used for final analysis. For the whole groups, all antecedents except reward justice had significant effects on, and explained large amount of variance of empowerment. Results from the analysis for each occupational group showed that income, career goal, and job significance had significant effects on empowerment at all occupational groups, while reward justice had not at any groups. The effects of other variables depended on occupational groups. 1bis study found some important antecedents of empowerment which have been less considered in previous research: career goal, work centrality, security, and organizational support. The finding that differential effects of antecedents on empowerment by occupational groups suggests that group characteristics should be considered for studying empowerment. In this study, for example, personal factors rather than both job factors and organizational factors were more effective for empowerment in the engineering group whose job is relatively simple and clear, while job factors were most effective in other groups. The differential effects of antecedents on empowerment by occupational groups also have practical implications for improvement of empowerment at hospitals. For empowerment, personnel management efforts would be more required for administrative workers than other occupational groups, because they perceived least job clarity, job significance, job fitness among the groups, all of which were found to be important determinants of empowerment for them.

  • A hot-issued research topic in the workflow intelligence arena is the emerging topic of "workflow-supported organizational social networks." These specialized social networks have been proposed to primarily represent the process-driven work-sharing and work-collaborating relationships among the workflow-performers fulfilling a series of workflow-related operations in a workflow-supported organization. We can discover those organizational social networks, and visualize its analysis results as organizational knowledge. In this paper, we are particularly interested in how to visualize the degrees of closeness centralities among workflow-performers by proposing a graphical representation schema based on the Graph Markup Language, which is named to ccWSSN-GraphML. Additionally, we expatiate on the functional expansion of the closeness centralization formulas so as for the visualization framework to handle a group of workflow procedures (or a workflow package) with organizational workflow-performers.

  • This study is purposed to find fundamental characteristics in Grassi's architecture which has architectural principles in architecture itself and in the general frame of the historical facts of architecture. His architectural theories can be explained for rationality, historicity, universality. The method of architectural composition can be divided into urban morphological characteristic and compositional characteristic of architecture. The characteristics of the former are the reconstruction of the urban structure by the readjustment of an urban axis which is based on historical continuity of the city, the open court which is a passage transformed from colonnade that is the historical vernacular type and the respect for the city-line which goes with historical context. The characteristics of the latter are the use transformed of nine square which gives consideration to centrality and typology at the same time and the hierarchic division of the principal space and the subordinate space for the functional typical purpose. This analysis shows that Grassi's architecture is on the base of historical continuity and urban reality and for him architectural work is mental work which conflict with the real world for the reconstruction of the city.

  • The purpose of this study is to compare and analyze the trend of reading research in Korea's LIS Fields in the past 20 years, divided into the 2000s and 2010s, by establishing a keyword network. To achieve this purpose, keywords were extracted from 489 related articles in the four major journals in the LIS field sourced from the Korean Journal Citation Index (KCI) and then analyzed using NetMiner4. The results of the study were as follows: First, in the case of the 2000s, 'Public Library', 'Bibliotherapy', 'Reading Education', and 'School Library' showed high values of Frequency Analysis, Degree Centrality, and Betweenness Centrality. In the 2010s, 'Reading Education', 'School Library', 'Children', 'Adolescents', and 'Public Library' showed high values of the aforementioned measures. Second, in the 2000s, the establishment of library infrastructure for reading and reading education, the improvement of policies and systems, and reading research through the reading movement were actively conducted. In the 2010s, based on the work and research done in the 2000s, customized user reading studies and various detailed reading research were conducted. Third, to meet the demands of the times for the restoration of humanity with creativity and imagination in the Fourth Industrial Revolution, reading research and professional in-depth research should be conducted in various environments beyond public and school libraries and interdisciplinary research and active joint research between the field and academia are needed.
