Currently, accreditation within medical education is a priority on the agenda for many countries worldwide. The World Federation for Medical Education's (WFME) launch of its first trilogy of standards in 2003 was a seminal event in promoting accreditation within basic medical education (BME) globally. Parallel to that, WFME also actively spearheaded a project to recognize the accrediting agencies within individual countries. The introduction of competency-based medical education (CBME) with the two key concepts of "entrusted professional activity" and milestones has enabled researchers to identify the relationship between patient outcomes and medical education. Recent data driven by CBME has been used for the continuous quality improvement of trainees and training programmes as well. The goal of accreditation has shifted from the single purpose of quality assurance to balancing quality assurance and quality improvement. Even though there are a plethora of types of postgraduate medical education (PGME), it may be possible to accredit resident programmes on a global scale by adopting the concept of CBME. In addition, the alignment of the accreditation for BME and PGME, which center on competency, will be achievable. This argument may extend the possibility of measuring the outcomes of the accreditation itself against patient outcomes as well. Therefore, evidence of the advantages of costly and labor-consuming accreditation processes will be available in the near future and quality improvement will be the driving force of the accreditation process.

This study examined the applicability of creative drama to a social competence program for poorly accepted(socially at-risk) elementary school children. The subjects were 40 $2^{nd}$(n=20) and $5^{th}$(n=20) grade children. The experimental group(n=20) participated in a social competence program that included 18 sessions of the creative drama activities during winter vacation. The Peer Rating Scale, the Peer Competence Scale, and the Quality of Friendship Scale were administered as pre- and post-test. Covariance analyses showed no differences between experimental and control groups on peer competence and quality of friendship, but the children who participated in the program showed some differences in total scores and sub-areas on quality of friendship by grade and level of peer pre-acceptance.

Two step growth of reduced pressure chemical vapor eposition has been successfully developed to achieve in-situ phosphorus-doped silicon epilayers, and the characteristic evolution on their microstructures has been investigated using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and secondary ion mass spectroscopy. The two step growth, which employs heavily in-situ P doped silicon buffer layer grown at low temperature, proposes crucial advantages in manipulating crystal structures of in-situ phosphorus doped silicon. In particular, our experimental results showed that with annealing of the heavily P doped silicon buffer layers, high-quality epitaxial silicon layers grew on it. the heavily doped phosphorus in buffer layers introduces into native oxide and plays an important role in promoting the dispersion of native oxides. Furthermore, the phosphorus doping concentration remains uniform depth distribution in high quality single crystalline Si films obtained by the two step growth.

This study attempted to identify the service satisfaction with the 119 emergency service and the factors that affect it based on the responses of subjects who used the service. Data collection was conducted from February 11 to March 11, 2021, using convenience sampling. A total of 1842 subjects who used emergency medical services using 119 ambulance in 2020 participated. For the collected data, frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation were calculated, and t-test, analysis of variance, and multiple regression analysis were performed using SPSS 23.0. Based on these results, to further enhance the satisfaction of users of the 119 emergency service and the quality of emergency medical services, it is important to improve the quality of paramedics through education and systems. In addition, to increase user satisfaction, efficient and systematic communication education is required. The quality of emergency medical services will increase only when communication skills required for explanations and promoting understanding are improved.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of patient's perceived medical quality of service on satisfaction, hospital reputation, and loyalty to provide a strategic way to increase profitability and competitiveness of hospitals by preventing the departure of existing customers and promoting reuse. AMOS 20.0 was used for structural model analysis and identification factor analysis and SPSS 21.0 program was used for empirical analysis. As a result, the quality of medical service had a significant effect on satisfaction and reputation, and the quality of medical service had the greatest effect on satisfaction. Satisfaction has a positive effect on reputation and loyalty and is an important factor in determining loyalty. Recognizing the importance of improving quality of service and building relationships with patients should be prepared for strengthening relationships.
