Y. R$\acute{e}$ball$\acute{e}$ [11] discussed the representation of necessity measure through the Choquet integral criterian. He also consider a decision maker who ranks necessity measures related with Choquet integral representation. In this paper, we consider a decision maker have an "ambiguity"(say, interval-valued) necessity measure according to their Choquet's expected utility. Furthermore, we prove two theorems which are weak Choquet integral representation of preferences with a monotone set function for interval-valued necessity measures and strong Choquet integral representation of preferences with an interval-valued utility function for necessity measures.

Y. R$\acute{e}$ball$\acute{e}$[Fuzzy Sets and Systems, vol.157, pp.3025-2039, 2006] discussed the representation of necessity measure through the Choquet integral criterian. He also considered a decision maker who ranks necessity measures related with Choquet integral representation. Our motivation of this paper is that a decision maker have an "ambiguity" necessity measure to present preferences. In this paper, we discuss the representation of interval-valued necessity measures through the Choquet integral criterian.

We examined an urban population's awareness of dietary guidelines to determine whether they perceived them to be necessary, and identified the factors affecting this awareness and perceived necessity. Data were collected via physical examinations and face-to-face interviews. Health indicators were collected from health examinations, and information on individual characteristics, including awareness, perceived necessity, and dietary status were obtained from the interviews. The subjects' sociodemographic, health and dietary status were examined as potential factors influencing awareness and perceived necessity. Descriptive statistics, contingency tables, and logistic regression modeling were used in the analysis. Low awareness of the dietary guidelines was displayed by the elderly and poorly educated individuals, and those without a spouse. Most people who were not aware of the dietary guidelines thought the guidelines unnecessary. Males with hypertension and lower hemoglobin levels, and females with less education had low awareness. Elderly females with lower bone density had less perceived necessity. Males and females with poor dietary status reported low perceived necessity.

We present here two Petri nets formalisms that can deal with uncertainty by the use of necessity-valued logic. The first and basic model, called necessity-valued Petri nets (NPN), can at the same time deal with uncertainty on markings are on transitions. The second model, called necessity-valued Petri nets (TNPN), is an extension of both NPN and timed Petri nets.

A semantics for logical necessity, based on Carnap's criterion of adequacy, is given with respect to the ontology of logical atomism. A calculus for sentential (propositional) modal logic is described and shown to be complete with respect to this semantics. The semantics is then modified in terms of a restricted notion of 'all possible worlds' in the interpretation of necessity and shown to yield a completeness theorem for the modal logic S5. Such a restricted notion introduces material content into the meaning of necessity so that, in addition to atomic facts, there are "modal facts" that distinguish one world from another.

The aim of this paper is to reject Graham's interpretation of bi (必) and xianzhi (先知) of Later Mohists' Mojing ("墨經") as logical necessity and a priori knowledge respectively. Graham's interpretations of them are based on his beliefs that Mojing distinguishes lun (論), the art of description from bian (辯), the art of inference in the Mohist disciplines and that the latter art should be seen as such a rigorous proof as Euclidean geometry even though it is not a Western formal logic. His beliefs also start from his distinguishing 'knowledge of names' from 'knowledge of conjunction of names and objects' according to the objects of knowledge. In my reading, the art of description and the art of inference, however, can't be sharply distinguished each other in Mojing and bi and xianzhi should be taken as suggesting both a normative necessity and an empirical necessity. A normative necessity is derived from 'normative theory of definition' which comes form the theory of rectification of names in China. The normative theory of definition, unlike the descriptive theory of definition, defines terms normatively rather than descriptively. For example, although such a definition of father, 'father is beneficient', has the form of being descriptive, but it actually is prescriptive and therefore means 'father should be beneficient'. Through this normative theory of definition, empirical knowledge, as long as it is a knowledge, is seen as necessary and so can't be wrong. To conclude, for Mohists an empirical knowledge is always a basis of an inferential knowledge or a priori knowledge, so Mohists' a priori knowledge is not really a fundamental knowledge and its necessity therefore is nothing but both a normative necessity and an empirical necessity.

This study was conducted to evaluate the necessity of clinical nutrition education in the medical school curriculum. One hundred and eighty five medical school students, residents, nurses, and forty undergraduate students majoring in food science and nutrition were involved in this study. The survey included questions about nutritional knowledge, necessity of nutrition counseling, necessity of clinical nutrition and nutritional attitudes. The nutritional knowledge scores of the subjects in medical school and residents were significantly lower than those of the students majoring in food science and nutrition. Subjects of 91.3% strongly agreed to the necessity of nutrition counseling for patients ; 78.9% agreed that the present nutrition education in medical schools was inadequate. Most subjects (94.1%) agreed that clinical nutrition was an important field in the treatment of diseases. The medical profession is facing the challenges of the 1990s with the shift to outpatient care and preventative services. Clinical nutrition is an essential element in the process of curriculum change. The nutrition educator will be expected to take a leading role in integrating clinical nutrition into medical school curriculum.

Purpose : The objective of this study was to investigate the basis for effective introduction of home visiting physical therapy to provide basic information. Thus in our study, we investigated awareness, necessity and operation plan of home visiting physical therapy for patients and guardian. Method : We conducted a survey 172 and guardian. The questionnaire consisted of items for general characteristics, awareness, necessity and operation plan. Data was collected from 2013 november 1 to november 30. Based on the collected data of self-administered questionnaires, we analyzed for frequency of each questionnaire about awareness, necessity and operation plan of home visiting physical therapy. Result : The awareness for home visiting physical therapy. The necessity for home visiting physical therapy indicated a high result. The result for operation plan indicated a national program. Conclusion : Improving on people's awareness is needed, because the awareness about home visiting physical therapy was low but the need was high. In addition, government institutional arrangements will be needed for advanced medical services as soon as possible.

Purpose: The purposes of this study were to examine the differences in need, necessity, performance, barriers, and effectiveness of workers' health promotion program and to determine the influencing factors in effectiveness of workers' health promotion program by business types. Methods: Subjects were participants of an education held by Korean association of occupational health nurses and a survey was self-reported. Survey items were developed by researchers through literature review. It included general characteristics of occupational health providers and worksites, need, necessity, performance, barriers and effectiveness of workers' health promotion (WHP) program. The total number of worksites was 168, manufacturing/construction was 76 (45.2%), other services were 52 (31.0%), and healthcare services were 40 (23.8%). We used ${\chi}^2test$, ANOVA test, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. Results: There were differences in need, necessity and performance of WHP by business types. In healthcare services, WHP had statistically significant effectiveness to reduce turnover rates. And the influencing factors of WHP's effectiveness were workers' need in manufacturing/construction, health provider's career in other services, and perceived necessity in healthcare services. Conclusion: Based on this result, we propose differentiated strategies depending on the business types for effective workers' health promotion program.
