With the development of realistic content technology and related infrastructure, interest in the use of virtual reality content is growing. Accordingly, in the field of safety education, more and more cases of producing virtual reality-based safety education (VR safety education) contents such as experiencing disaster situations realistically by supplementing the shortcomings of existing lecture-style education. This study looked at the characteristics and effects of VR safety education compared to the existing safety education, and analyzed 104 VR safety education contents produced and disclosed to date into nine classifications based on content and form. Based on the degree of relevance between items and the two axes of 'interactionability' and 'vividness of the environment', VR safety education contents could be categorized into three types: tangible lecture type, simulation type, and game type. Through this study, we hope to contribute to the planning and production of quality VR safety education contents by considering the purpose of safety education and the characteristics of types with the expected effects.

The terminals of e-Book(electronic Book) are classified into two types which consist of special-purpose terminal equipment and general-purpose terminal equipment. Although the terminal products inr the two types have had a strong race in the e-Book market each other, both enterprises and consumers want the two type to remain persistently with competition in good faith. Therefore, it is necessary for each type camps to find blue ocean by establishing differentiation strategies of each type. In this paper, we designed the research model that independent variables consist of hardware quality and software quality, dependent variable is user satisfaction, moderator variable is the terminal type. Through the research model, we investigated factors having a influence on the user satisfaction of the e-Book terminal that consists of hardware and software. In particular, we investigated if the degree of the influence is different between the two types. As a result, we got conclusions as followings. First, the quality of hardware and software in the terminal had significant influences on the user satisfaction. Second, the degree which the hardware quality has influenced user satisfaction was not different between the two types, but the degree which the software quality has influence on user satisfaction was different between the two types. As a implication of this result, we found that special-purpose terminal provider need to establish a strategies for raising the quality of e-Book viewer to provide different product from general-purpose terminal.

Recently, gamification has garnered high attention in various fields outside the traditional game world through the adoption of game techniques. The introduction of gamification creates an alternate reality game. It appears virtually the same as other normal games, but is able to pull down the boundary between reality and imagination. At first, this was utilized by the entertainment industry for movies, advertisements, and drama publicity. We can see examples of gamification extending into the knowledge and information contents field. The purpose of knowledge and information contents is to pursue meaning and utility rather than fun, though the introduction of game methods remains interesting. In-depth examination of the conception of an alternate reality game via gamification will lead to the understanding of progression and quality of alternate reality games in the context of knowledge and information contents. As a result, we can effectively understand not only the immediate uses but also be able to measure the potential for utilization of gamification for various fields.

This study aims at analyzing what influences the menu quality of Italian restaurants in major five star hotels in Seoul have on satisfaction and revisit intention. The survey was conducted from 20st June to 26th June, 2009. The statistical data of the analysis were completed using the SPSS 12.0 program, and frequency analysis, reliability analysis, factor analysis, multiple regression analysis were conducted. The results of this study were as follows. First, the most significant factor in selecting Italian restaurants was found foods taste, and the factor analysis with 45 variables of the menu quality of the Italian restaurants came up with menu factor, foods quality factor, and menu service factor. Second, among the menu quality of the Italian restaurants, menu contents and menu services were found to have a significant effect on satisfaction. Third, satisfaction was found to have a significantly positive effect on revisit intention. Fourth, menu contents were identified to have a significantly positive on revisit intention while food quality and menu services didn't have a positive one. Thus more studies should be focused on a variety of menu quality regarding Italian restaurants in the future. Based on these results, there must be continuous supervision over the menu of Italian restaurants.

With increased complexity of product and market, the phenomenon that a consumer get paradoxical attitude toward marketing object has been increased. And this phenomenon eventually affects the relationship between consumer and product. In this study we tried to find more paradoxical phenomenon and understand consumer behavior confronting these situations when they buy agro-product based on ground theory methodology. According to the results, consumer's expectation and purchase experience can promote quality paradox experience during confronting various marketing activities such as price, product, promotion, place. Also these experience can cause quality paradox related interaction and communication even though there could be differences in their experience according to demographic characteristics, personal preference, and risk perception. Consumer will develop multiple strategies against quality paradox to manage the uncomfortable paradox experiences.

Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy(NIRS) is accepted as today's most versatile method for rapid chemical analysis. The technique offers rapid multicomponent analysis. This study was conducted to improve the efficiency of quality analysis in covered barley grain, and to search for the effects of chemical components variation in covered barley grain on NIRS. Among the three groups with different range in the contents, each equation for starch contents increased standard error of prediction(SEP) and increased correlation coefficient from 0.872 to 0.883. According as, $\beta$-glucan and protein contents decreased SEP and increased correlation coefficient by expanded chemical components variation. Effective equation for ash contents analysis was obtained from group 3. Among the covered barley chemical components, starch and ash contents were required to conduct futher studies in term of accuracy and variation of contents. It was concluded that NIRS method would be applicable for the rapid determination of $\beta$-glucan and protein contents in covered barley grains.
