본 연구의 목적은 대도시와 지방도시 기계경비시스템 이용자의 안전욕구충족과 생활만족에 대한 차이를 비교분석하는데 있다. 이 연구는 대도시(서울)와 지방도시(천안 아산)를 모집단으로 선정한 다음 유의 표집법을 이용하여 총 400명을 표집 하였다. 구체적으로 각 지역에서 은행 귀금속점 편의점 통신업체등의 4개 영업점을 대상으로 2차 분할하여 실시하였으며, 1차는 2008년 6월 서울 소재 기계경비시스템 이용자들을 한강기준으로 강동, 강서, 강남, 강북, 도심권 등의 5개 지역으로 분할하여 각 지역에 1개동을 추출 40명씩 총 200부를 표집 하였다. 2차는 2009년 1월 천안 아산 소재 기계경비시스템 이용자들을 대상으로 4개 지역에서 50명씩 200명을 표집 하였다. 설문지의 신뢰도는 Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ 값이 .812이상으로 나타났다. 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 도시크기에 따른 기계경비시스템 이용자들의 신체적 안전욕구충족은 차이가 있다. 즉, 대도시 이용자가 지방도시 이용자보다 환경적, 심리적, 정보적 안전욕구충족은 높다. 둘째, 도시크기에 따른 기계경비시스템 이용자들의 생활만족은 차이가 있다. 즉, 대도시 이용자가 지방도시 이용자보다 안전생활 만족은 높다. 셋째, 도시크기에 따른 기계경비시스템 이용자의 안전욕구충족은 생활만족에 영향을 미친다. 즉, 대도시 이용자들의 경우 신체적, 환경적, 정보적, 물리적 안전욕구충족이 높을수록 생활만족은 높다.

Background: Assessment of supportive needs is the requirement to plan any supportive care program for cancer patients. There is no evidence about supportive care needs of Iranian breast cancer patients. So, the aims of present study were to investigate this question and s predictive factors. Materials and Methods: A descriptive-correlational study was conducted, followed by logistic regression analyses. The Supportive Care Needs Survey was completed by 136 breast cancer patients residing in Iran following their initial treatment. This assessed needs in five domains: psychological, health system and information, physical and daily living, patient care and support, and sexuality. Results: Patient perceived needs were highest in the health systems and information (71%), and physical and daily living (68%) domains. Logistic regression modeling revealed that younger participants have more un-met needs in all domains and those with more children reported fewer un-met needs in patient care and support domains. In addition, married women had more un-met supportive care needs related to sexuality. Conclusions: The high rate of un-met supportive care needs in all domains suggests that supportive care services are desperately required for breast cancer patients in Iran. Moreover, services that address informational needs and physical and daily living needs ought to be the priority, with particular attention paid to younger women. Further research is clearly needed to fully understand supportive care needs in this cultural context.

As an alternative to the k-means clustering the k-spatial medians clustering has many good points because of advantages of spatial median. However, it has not been used a lot since it needs heavy computation. If the number of objects and the number of variables are large the computation time problem is getting serious. In this study we propose fast algorithm for the k-spatial medians clustering. Practical applicability of the algorithm is shown with some numerical studies.

Mobile fashion apps present much opportunity for marketers to engage consumers, however not all apps provide enough functions for their targeted audience. This study aims to determine how mobile fashion apps can be used to build brand community with consumer engagement. Qualitative data on fashion mobile apps were collected from the Apple app store and Android market during the spring and summer of 2015. A total of 110 fashion mobile apps were collected;, 50 apps were identified as apparel brands that either manufacture or sell apparel to consumers, which we categorized as "brand" fashion apps, and the remaining 60 were categorized as "non-brand" fashion apps. The result of the study can be summarized as below. The 60 non-brand fashion apps were grouped into 5 app types: shopping, searching, sharing, organizational, and informational. The main functions are for informational use and shopping needs, since at least half (31 apps) are used for either retrieving information or for shopping. However, in contrast, social networking and location were infrequent and not commonly utilized by these apps. The most common type of non-brand fashion apps available were shopping apps;, many shopping apps enable users to shop from several different websites and save their items into one universal shopping cart so that they only check out once. Most of these apps are informational and help consumers make more informed decisions on purchases;, in addition many offer location services to help consumers find these items in store. While these apps perform several functions, they do not link to social media. The 50 brand apps were grouped into 5 brand types: athletic, casual, fast fashion, luxury, and retailer. These apps were also checked for attributes to determine their functionality. The result shows that the main functions of brand fashion apps are for information (82% of the 50 apps) as well as location searching (72% of 50 apps). Conversely, these apps do not offer any photo sharing, and very few have organizational or community functions. Fashion mobile apps and m-marketing elements: To build brand community, mobile apps can be designed to motivate consumer's engagement with brands. The motivations of fashion mobile apps are useful in developing fashion mobile apps. Entertainment motives can be fulfilled with multimedia attributes, functionality motives are satisfied with organizational and location-based features, information motives with informational service, socialization with community and social network, learning and intellectual stimulation from informational attributes, and trend following through photo sharing. The 8 key attributes of mobile apps can correspond to the 4 m-marketing elements (i.e., Informative content, multimedia, interactions, and product promotions) that are further intertwined with m-branding elements. App Attributes and M-Marketing aim to Build Brand Community;, the eight key attributes can impact on 4 m-branding elements, which further contribute to building brand community by affecting consumers' perceptions of brands preference and advocacy, and their likelihood to be loyal.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the activities of daily living of the elderly in day and night care facilities and the nursing needs of the elderly and caregivers. Methods: The subjects of this study were 90 elderly people and their caregivers, who lived in B and G cities used day and night care facilities. The collected data were analyzed using frequency analysis, descriptive statistics, independent t-test, and Pearson's correlation coefficient using the SPSS 25.0 program.

Background: The study aimed to assess complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) use and their associated factors with breast cancer patients in Bandung, Indonesia. Materials and Methods: In total, 330 breast cancer patients were administered questionnaires on their CAM use and CAM predictive factors including socio-demographic parameters, clinical data and quality of life, trust in physicians, trust in hospitals, satisfaction and informational needs. Data were analyzed using univariate analysis and multivariate log regreesion analysis. Results: Overall 33.3% of patients reported use of CAM. Lower income, lower education, presence of metastasis, prolonged diagnosis, less trust in physician were found to be highly associated with CAM use. Conclusions: CAM use by breast cancer patients can be interpreted as an attempt to explore all possible options, an expression of an active coping style, or expression of unmet needs in the cancer care continuum. Physicians need to openly discuss the use of CAM with their patients and identify whether they have other unmet supportive needs.
