Diet quality index DQI) offers a new way of comparing eating habits across populations and across countries. Nutrients and food consumption data from 100 elderly Korean women aged 65 and older were collected in Seoul or Kyunggi-do, Korea by the 24 hour recall method. Diet quality index (DQI) was computed for 1049 elderly women (65 and older) from the 1994-1996 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals (CSFII) in the US according to US dietary guidelines, and applied to the diet of elderly Korean women for purposes of comparison. A modified 16-point DQI awarded 2 points each for moderate consumption of fat ($\leq$ 30% energy), saturated fat ($\leq$ 10%), cholesterol ($\leq$ 300 mg/day), sodium ($\leq$ 2400 mg/day), and protein ($\leq$ 100% RDA), adequate intakes of carbohydrate ($\qeq$50% energy) and calcium ($\qeq$ 100% RDA), and plenty of fruits and vegetables ($\qeq$ 5 servings). Criteria were based on US dietary guidelines. Partial scores were given if subjects were close to meeting these cutoff points. Diets with $\leq$ 300 mg cholesterol/day were reported by 97% or the Korean sample and 82% of the American sample, while 90% of the Koreans and 42% of the Americans met the goal of $\leq$ 30% of energy from fat, and 98% of the Koreans and 47% of American met the recommendation of $\leq$ 10% of energy from saturated fat. In contrast, only 8% of the Korean sample met the sodium recommendation of $\leq$ 2400 mg sodium per day, whereas 54% of the American subjects met this goal. The mean DQI scores were 10.1 for the elderly American women and 11.3 for the elderly Korean women. Overall, the elderly Korean diet was more consistent with the US dietary guidelines than the elderly American diet.

미국수학사에서 가장 중요한 시기로 여겨지는 1890년에서 1950년 사이의 미국수학계의 발전과정을 당시의 미국수학 연구에 있어서 혁신적 발전의 계기를 제공한 시카고 대학의 초대 수학과장 E.H. Moore 의 역할을 중심으로 고찰한다. 19세기말 아직 낙후되었던 미국 수학계는 시카고 대학의 핵심 학과였던 수학과는 총장의 비전을 같이 할 우수교수를 확보하고, 새로운 제도 하에서 선발된 우수 대학원 학생들을 탐구지향 교수법으로 지도하며 미국 수학연구의 초장기에 우수한 인재를 공급하기 시작한다. 이를 통하여 미국은 인재양성과 새로운 연구 분야 및 연구방법의 개척에 성공하고, 1950년 국제수학자대회(ICM)를 미국에서 개최하며, 당당히 세계수학의 주류에 진입한다. 본 원고는 위의 발전과정이 현재 한국에 주는 의미를 분석한다.

The purpose of this research was to understand the process of American women's adoption of knickerbockers from the mid-nineteenth to the early twentieth century. Articles and advertisements related to women's knickerbockers found from The New York Times were used as primary sources. Before 1920, women wore knickerbockers when they participated in sports including gymnasium, bicycling, and swimming. Knickerbockers were mostly worn with overskirts when women appeared in the public. Therefore, knickerbockers were categorized as underwear in the advertisements until the late 1910s. However, knickerbockers were even worn on the streets and in offices after American women gained suffrage in 1920. As more women adopted knickerbockers during the 1920s, the public criticisms and regulations on women's knickerbockers intensified. However, the articles on women's knickerbockers gradually disappeared from The New York Times, as they went out of fashion by the end of the 1920s. Considering the social situation and the change in womanhood during the period, I concluded that American women's adoption process of knickerbockers reflected the increase in women's mobility, and the change in gender roles and the definition of femininity.

This study explored elderly American women's body satisfaction and clothing consciousness with the methods of survey and body measurement. To that end, I first investigated their self-perception of body size and body satisfaction and also the relationships between those, along with the relationships between body measurements and body satisfaction. Then, I analyzed the differences in elderly women's body satisfaction and clothing consciousness among different body type groups. For the last, I examined the degree of their body thinness or obesity and ideal body size in order to explore the standard for ideal body shape among elderly women. Elderly American women were satisfied with most of their body parts except waist circumference and weight. Body satisfaction with stature, weight, and hip circumference was correlated to both size perception and body measurement. Body satisfaction with thigh circumference and leg length was correlated to size perception, and also that with waist circumference and neck length to body measurement. Size perception showed differences among body types, but body satisfaction did not show notable differences among body types. There were significant differences between real size and ideal one. Elderly American women thought that clothing was important in their everyday life.

This study, on the American hippies and their fashion, is composed of an examination of the following; the social and cultural circumstances of America in the late 1960's, the charac? teristics of the hippies that appeared in the midst of the foresaid background, how those factors materialized in the hippies' distinctive fashion and how they influenced tahion to come. The hippies were composed of the young generation that revolted against all general conventional values of American society and seceded from it, seeking for the ideas of love and freedom. They expressed their newly defined culture-rock music based on drug culture, psychedelic art, rejection of an established society and ethnic tastes that sprang up from nostalgia concerning nature-by means of their own distinctive fashion. And as a revival of the hippies' fashion, neo-hippie and grunge fashions newly appeared in the F /W season of 1992 and afterwards, adding fresher and more abundant sensibility to the original image and layered look of the hippies. The hippies' fashion has not only played a significant part in modem fashion history but will continue to exert its influence in the 1990's as the hippies generation are presently the center of American culture and leaders of world culture. In conclusion, various sorts of "individ- uality" and "the pleasure in the wearing itself" expressed by the original layering of the hippies' fashion presents new promise in the coming development at fashion.

Philp Lim, Alexander Wang and Jason Wu are the American fashion designers as descendants of Chinese immigrants. They had the honor of being given the Swarovski Awards- new premier fashion designer- from CFDA(Council of Fashion Designers of America). The purpose of this study were to investigate the characteristics of their collection, and offered the informations for Korean designers entering the American market. This research categorized characteristics of these designers'- whole characteristics and the characteristics of details such as formal characteristics, optimistic characteristics, tactile characteristics-, and fashion styles from the S/S season of 2009 to the F/W season of 2010 were analyzed. These young and male designers being received attention as a star, didn't make creative art pieces. But they made pragmatic, commercial, and con-temporary works in whole characteristics and succeeded in their fashion business like other American designers. On the other hand they oriented high fashion clearly in terms of the detail characteristics - their own accent color, tiny change in variety, unique material, delicate ornaments. Therefore Lim created chic and stylish, Wang made a sporty street style, Wu made a luxury style with mannish and casual through work characteristics suitable for their costumer.

Background: Asian ginseng and American ginseng are functional foods that share a close genetic relationship and are well-known worldwide. This article aims to investigate the correlation between morphological characteristics and the inherent quality of Asian and American ginsengs. Methods: In this study, an ultra-HPLC-quadrupole/time-of-flight MS (UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS) method was established for the quantitative analysis of 45 ginseng samples. The method developed for determination was precise and accurate. Results: The results showed that Asian ginseng samples with the same growing time (with the same or similar number of stem scars) that had a thinner main root, a longer rhizome and more branch roots contained greater amounts of ginsenosides. For American ginseng, two tendencies were observed in the relationship between the diameter of the main root and contents of ginsenosides. One tendency was that samples with thinner main roots tended to contain higher levels of ginsenosides, which was observed in the samples sold under the commercial name pao-shen. Another tendency was that samples with thicker main roots contained higher contents of ginsenosides, which was observed in the samples sold under the commercial name pao-mian, as well as in samples of American ginseng cultivated in Jilin, China. Conclusion: An approach using ultra-HPLC-quadrupole/time-of-flight MS was successfully established to link morphology and active components for evaluating the quality of Asian and American ginsengs. Clear correlation between visible morphological features and quality of Asian and American ginsengs was found. People can see the difference; this means consumers and vendors can evaluate ginseng by themselves.

본 논문은 캘리포니아의 중국계와 한국계의 양 소수민족은행을 비교하여 한국계 민족은행과 한국계 이민사회의 경제적 관계를 해명하고자 한다. 통상 미국 내 소수민족경제권의 경제적 성과 차이는 문화적 차이 또는 비공식금융의 기여로 설명되는 경우가 많으나 우리는 공식금융제도의 적극적 역할에 주목하여 금융제도와 소수민족경제의 관련성을 강조한다. 동시에 한국계 미국은행은 성장, 수익성, 은행전략 면에서 중국계 소수민족은행과 구분된다는 점을 중시하여, 은행전략 측면에서, 중국계와 한국계가 고객과의 장기적 거래를 중시하는 유사한 관계은행전략을 구사하지만, 은행의 대출분포와 예금분포는 서로 다르다는 점을 지적하였다. 이는 각 소수민족은행이 다른 경영성과를 낳는 이유가 된다. 한국계은행의 경우 대출구조가 사업대출 중심이며, 이자 낳지 않는 예금의 비중이 중국계 민족은행보다 상대적으로 높은 사실이 한국계 소수민족은행이 높은 성장을 하게 된 배경이다. 따라서 관계은행전략이라는 개념만으로는 다수의 소수민족은행의 차이를 설명할 수 없으므로, 본 연구는 한국계와 중국계의 이민사회 그 자체의 특수성에 주목하였다. 중국계 미국인의 경우 인구구성의 이질성과 해외자본의 영향이, 한국계 미국인의 경우 동질적 인구 및 사업구성과 착 한국계 미국인 금융기관의 경쟁력이 특징적이다.

이 논문은 한국 미국 대학의 지리학과 학부과정 교과목을 비교하고 분석하는 연구이다. <지리학 개론>은 학부과정 교과목으로 개설하는 경우가 매우 드문데, 이는 지리학의 네 분야(인문지리 분야, 자연지리 분야, 지역지리학 분야, 기타 분야)를 한 과목으로 통합하여 개설하기 어렵기 때문일 것이다. 한국 대학 지리학과에서는 인문지리학 분야의 교과목 비율(39.4%)이 자연지리학 분야의 교과목 비율(24.5%)보다 크지만, 미국 대학 지리학과에서는 자연지리학 분야의 교과목 비율(32.8%)이 인문지리학 분야의 교과목 비율(29.4%)보다 조금 더 큰 것으로 나타난다. 지역지리학 분야의 교과목 비율을 비교하면, 미국의 비율(18.1%)이 한국의 비율(13.8%)보다 크다. 이는 미국 대학 지리학과에서 지역지리학 분야가 보다 더 강조되고 있다는 사실을 말해준다. 한국 대학 지리학과 교과과정은 미국 대학 지리학과 교과과정을 수용하여 정착시킨 것이기 때문에 양자는 매우 유사한 면을 많이 갖고 있다. 그렇지만 지리학의 네 분야가 차지하는 몫에서는 약간의 상이성이 나타나는데, 이러한 상이성은 지난 반세기 동안에 한국 지리학과가 놓여있던 역사적 맥락으로 설명할 수 있을 것이다.
