Purpose: This study was designed to find out the fact that the followership types of nurses would effect on job satisfaction, organizational commitment and nursing task performance. Methods: The sample consisted of 219 nurses working in 2 medical institutions. SPSS program was used for descriptive statistics, ANOVA, chi-square test, Duncan test, Pearson Correlation, and Multiple Regression. Results: In the followership type, effective follower was the largest as 47.0% and passive follower was 26.9%. Nurses who had a effective followership style had the highest level of organizational commitment, job satisfaction and those who had a passive followership style had the lowest level of organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and nursing performance. The followership was significantly related to the organizational commitment, job satisfaction and nursing task performance. The active involvement had a positive effect on the organizational commitment, job satisfaction and nursing task performance. The critical thinking had a positive effect on the job satisfaction. Conclusion: These results demonstrate that the most effective followership is effective follower. And organizational managers must take into account followership types when they develop the strategies for organizational effectiveness.

A noble model of the whole lumbar spine (L1~L5) considering all the passive elements, especially the ligaments of the lumbar spine was developed. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the shear stress of the AVB and the ALL and the effect of a compressive follower pre-load on all ligaments with various motions. The result shows that the shear stress at the AVB and the ALL are positively correlated. This indicates that the shear stress of the ligament can be used an index of low back pain. Regarding the effect of a follower pre-load, contrary to our expectation, the shear stress of the ligaments was not always reduced by applying follower pre-load; flexion was decreased and axial rotation did not change, while extension and lateral bending were increased.

The purpose of this study is to find out the operant factors, or types of skin care, and, more importantly, to propose the intervention for more effective skin care and marketing strategies in this business. That is the main reason that the study employes Q methodology which measures human subjectivity objectively and scientifically. This study finally revealed three distinctive factors : Type I, The Passive Follower, Type II, The Active Needs, and Type III, The Independent Judgment. The first type includes people who show passive recognition. They want to be put in charge of experts in the skin care center and to buy cosmetics recommended by experts, and are deep interest in the reaction of other people. The second type contains people who desire things actively. To live delightfully and fashionably, they think of the necessity of skin and body care as an important thing, and feel that it is necessary to take care of the skin beauty actively and regularly for the aging resistance. The third type includes people who judge independently. In general, they recognize and desire the necessity of the skin care, but they think of the skin care as a part of the health care more widely rather than a special thing. These three types are not fixed, but continuously changed in the accordance with the condition and interaction with the circumstance, the results will be utilized as basic materials for the skin and health care through the application according to the characteristic of each type they belong.

This paper deals with a uniform cantilever Euler-Bernoulli beam subjected to follower and transversal force at its free end as a model for a pipe conveying fluid under electromagnetic damper force. The electromagnetic damper is composed of a permanent-magnet DC motor, a ball screw and a nut. The main objective of the current work is to reduce the pipe vibration resulting from the fluid velocity and allow it to transform into electric energy. To pursue this goal, the stability and vibration of the beam model was studied using Ritz and Newmark methods. It was observed that increasing the fluid velocity results in a decrease in the motion of the free end of the pipe. The results of simulation showed that the designed semiactive electromagnetic damper controlled by on-off damping control strategy decreased the vibration amplitude of the pipe about 5.9% and regenerated energy nearly 1.9 (mJ/s). It was also revealed that the designed semi-active electromagnetic damper has better performance and more energy regeneration than the passive electromagnetic damper.

The purpose of this study is to identify the moderating effect of Internet lifestyle among relational benefits effect, customer satisfaction and customer loyalty on the Internet shopping mall. For the study, utilizing the convenient sampling method, the sample of study was composed of female and male adults aged between 20 and 30 living in Seoul metropolitan area who had experienced purchase of fashion products on the web. Of 350 distributed, 311 useful questionnaires were returned. The survey research design was employed with structured questionnaire. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, factor analysis, reliability analysis, cluster analysis and multiple-regression analysis were used. The results of this study are as follows: The results of Internet lifestyle were regarding 4 cluster of Internet lifestyle. 1) information seeking type, 2) shopping maniac type, 3) social gathering type and 4) passive follower type were obtained. The interaction of psychological benefits and the type of Internet lifestyle affected customer satisfaction positively. The interaction of customer satisfaction and Internet lifestyle reinforced customer loyalty. Especially interaction of shopping maniac type among Internet lifestyle types and customer satisfaction affected customer loyalty strongly.

The rapid growth and popularity of Twitter have been one of the most influential phenomena in the era of social network system and the mobile internet, which also opens up opportunities for new business strategies; in particular, PR and marketing area. This study analyzed use of Twitter in terms of user characteristics and message attributes. Actual field data from the Twitter for PR and Marketing of a representative Korean IT company (Company "K") was used for this analysis. Research findings show that overall corporate twitter users show passive attitude in retweet behavior. Also, users who have relatively small network size (less than 1,000) are more active in retweet than power twitterians that have big network size(over than 10,000). It is showed that the rate of retweet is higher in the order of recruiting, promotional event, IT information, and general PR message. In the conclusion section, practical implications based on the research finding are thoroughly discussed.

This study aims to extract the factors which constitute use tendency on digital product, and to devide korean generation. We surveyed to digital product users who are 15 through 49 years old, executed factor analysis, cluster analysis, and so on, The results of factor analysis, we selected 11 factors, named as interest, entertainment, simplicity, anxiety of mal-operation, practicality, personality, consistency, multi-functionality, learning style of how-to-use, responsibility of disorder, and lending degree. The results of cluster analysis, we classified subjects into following three types: positive acceptor, passive follower, and conservative indifference. And, we executed frequency analysis iteratively. We devide korean digital product users to 4 generations -1727G, 2834G, 3538G, 3949G- by means of synthesizing the results. It can be said that generation is strong factor effect to use tendency, but the other factors like sex, occupation, school career, income become weak factor or not matters. Finally, we considered the reason, 3538G takes a crossing point role through comparison the generation division with cohort research on product use experience.
