The purpose of this study is to find out the factors that explain the sense of touch and preference of man-made leather. Date base of descriptors for man-made leather was collected by interviewing 50 consumers, 33 different kinds of commercial man-made leathers(synthetic leather and artificial leather) were assessed subjectively by 605 consumers using the 9-point scale of 34 pairs of bipolar descriptors based on the data base. Subjective ratings were analyzed by principal axis factoring with varimax rota-tion. The sense of touch of man-made leather is explained by five factors ; surface property stretchiness thickness& weight thermal property(warmth & coolness) and moisture property (sticky & clingy). The difference in the sense of touch of man-made leathers is mainly attributable to surface property and stretchiness. And the preference of man-made leathers is mainly attributable to surface property and stretchiness. And the preference of man-made leather is explained by three factors ; surface property stretchiness and quality. Higher preference is found in man-mad leather of better quality touch and softness.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between the spectator experience and satisfaction with a focus on attachment and a sense of community. The survey was given to random spectators who watched KBO (The Korea Baseball Organization) games in 2018. With 189 surveyed participants, this study used exploratory factor analysis and reliability analysis to verify the reliability and validity of the measured variables. The hierarchical multiple regression correlation was employed as a statistical method for the hypotheses of this study. The findings showed that spectators' experiences have influences on satisfaction. Among the experience factors, education and entertainment affect attachment, and education has the only significant influence on a sense of community. In addition, spectators' attachment and a sense of community positively influence satisfaction. Attachment and a sense of community have a relatively mediated effect on spectators' experiences and satisfaction.

Purpose: This study aimed to explore the influences of sense of ethics and attitude toward patient safety in confidence in patient safety in nursing students. Methods: This descriptive study was conducted with 198 students who had clinical practices in two nursing schools. Sense of ethics, attitude and confidence about patient safety were measured by a questionnaire. Data were analyzed with SPSS/WIN 19.0 using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression analysis. Results: There were significant differences in satisfaction with nursing major by grade. There were significant positive correlations among sense of ethics, attitude toward patient safety, confidence in patient safety, view on patient's safety, and satisfaction with nursing major. Confidence in patient safety was associated with sense of ethics, attitude toward patient safety, and view on patient's safety, with 37.6% of the variance. Conclusion: The findings suggest that we need to develop curriculums for undergraduate students to improve their sense of ethics and patient safety. Further research is needed to examine educational needs on patient safety in nursing students.

Purpose In the current environment of online shopping, the cost for consumers to obtain the information they need is decreasing, and the price of products is becoming more transparent, leading to increased price competition among enterprises for similar products. Given the widespread usage of limited-time promotion as a marketing method for enterprises in the context of e-commerce, it is great meaning to study and reveal the internal influence mechanism of limited-time promotion on consumers' impulsive consumption. Design/methodology/approach Based on the S-O-R theory, this study constructs a model of consumers' impulsive consumption in the context of e-commerce from the perspective of perceived price discount, with evoking sense and pleasure as mediating variables and perceived time pressure as moderating variables. Findings The results show that perceived price discount has a significant positive impact on evoking sense and pleasure. Evoking sense has a significant positive impact on pleasure. Both evoking sense and pleasure have a significant positive impact on consumers' impulsive consumption. Meanwhile, perceived time pressure plays a significant moderating role between perceived price discount and evoking sense, between perceived price discount and pleasure, and between evoking sense and consumers' impulsive consumption. Finally, based on the above findings, this study provides effective suggestions for e-commerce participants in the formulation of limited-time promotion strategies.

Purpose: This study was conducted to compare pain, sense, bleeding, and hematoma that patients feel depending on the process of eliminating air of pressure band that was applied to patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) through radial artery. Methods: It was a nonequivalent control group pretestposttest design to compare pain, sense, bleeding, and hematoma by amount and time of eliminating air of pressure band after PCI through radial artery. Results: On arrival at Coronary Care Unit, meaningful difference didn't exist between pain and sense, however, after two hours of starting eliminating air, the points of pain and sense were meaningfully low (p<.001). Also, there was meaningful difference in reciprocal action between group and time (p<.001). Conclusion: After PCI, the conclusion showed there is positive effect in decreasing wrist pain and sense without any influence of bleeding by eliminating air from patients' pressure bands.
