This paper is concerned with a standard size system and production proportion of combat boots. For the standard size system foot sizes of 327 soldiers were mesured by Martin type anthropometric equipment. 24 foot measurements were obtained on all individuals. The standard size system of which key measurements are foot length and joint girth are proposed on the basis of the statistically treated measurement data. The production (or purchasing) proportion of the proposed size system of combat boots are also proposed.

This study deals with the decision problem of sample size by the relative standard error of estimates derived from survey results in successive occasions. The population of the construction in business survey results is used to calculate quartile of the relative standard error of the 1,000 sample obtained from simple or stratified random sampling. The sample size at time t with a relative standard error of the point (t-1) in the successive occasions were calculated according to the sampling method. As a result, in terms of the sample size according to the size of the relative standard error of the (t-1), simple random sampling differs significantly from stratified sampling. In addition, we could see differences in sample size (depending on how the population is stratified) and that careful attention is required in the problem of sample size by the relative standard error of estimates derived from survey results in successive occasions.

This study suggest the size designation and standard nude size in relation to upper and lower garments for casual clothing brands targeting men aged 25 to 34. The nude size designation of upper garments was set at intervals of 5cm based on the bust (97cm). The clothing industry has used different nude size and designations; therefore, the following measurements were established to correspond to each other: bust 87cm- designation 90, bust 92cm- designation 95, bust 97 cm-designation 100, bust 102cm- designation 105, and bust 107cm- designation 110. The nude size designation of lower garments was set at intervals of 2cm based on the waist circumference (omphalion) and the nude size; the clothing designations were used equally. In addition, the standard nude size for upper and lower garments was set at intervals of bust (97cm) and of waist circumference (82cm), respectively, in order to suggest a detailed size.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the problems of consumer and producer in women's ready-made clothing through questionaires, and to solve the problems presented by questionaires. The point at problems of ready-made clothing indicated by the consumer and producer altogether focused on the size. Therefore this study on the size of ready-made clothing was carried out. The size selected for the research materials were producer's size, domestic researchers' measurement size, KS size in the '81, and foreign standard sizes. The results of this study were as follows: 1) As comparing three kinds of size the producers' size(A), domestic researchers' measurement size(B), and KS size(C) it follows that: ① To the same circumference of bust, the waist measurement showed in following order: B＞C＞A, and the hip measurement showed generally in following order: A＞B. ② The extent of bust measurement showed in following order: B＞C＞A. ③ The sort numbers of size showed in following order: C＞B＞A. 2) As Comparing with foreign standard sizes, the sort numbers of our standard size were much less than foreigns as following order: DOB(102)＞JIS(78)＞BS(39)＞PS(29)＞KS(15)FNOR(10). 3) The reasonable size was made by referring to the producer's size, researchers' measurement size, and KS size.

A critical assumption of the standard sample size calculation is that the response (outcome) for an individual patient is completely independent to that for any other patient. However, this assumption no longer holds when there is a lack of statistical independence across subjects seen in cluster randomized designs. In this setting, patients within a cluster are more likely to respond in a similar manner; patient outcomes may correlate strongly within clusters. Thus, direct use of standard sample size formulae for cluster design, ignoring the clustering effect, may result in sample size that are too small, resulting in a study that is under-powered for detecting the desired level of difference between groups. This paper revisit worked examples for sample size calculation provided in a previous paper using nomogram to easy to access. Then we present the concept of cluster design illustrated with worked examples, and introduce design effect that is a factor to inflate the standard sample size estimates.

This study was to carry out interview and survey of currently marketed foundation garment, focusing on manufacturers, on the basis of data of Year 2004 SIZE KOREA in 2004, to re-establish suitable age range and standard size, to simplify size interval scale and size system and to revise the standard for consumers' easy understanding and availability; The findings of this study are as follows. 1. Considering the age, in which a bra is worn, has reduced socially, the applicable age range was expanded into $8{\sim}80$ years old, which was divided into for junior and for adult. 2. For bra size, the standard title changed into the foundation garments size standard, in which girdle and bodysuit were included. 3. Basic physical parts for establishing for bra size are underbust and bust. Interval scale of under bust and bust was 5cm and 2.5cm, respectively. And basic physical parts are waist and hip girth for girdle, and underbust, bust, and hip girth for bodysuit. 4. For bra size, underbust girth was applied together with bra-cup size without 'cm' unit. For bra-cup size, difference between underbust and bust was represented as English alphabet. In other words, AAA means that difference between under bust and bust is 5cm. AA, A, B, C and D means that the difference are 7.5cm, 10cm, 12.5cm, 15cm and 17.5cm. 5. For girdle size, waist girth was applied together with hip girth without 'cm' unit. And for bodysuit size, underbust girth was applied together with cup size like bra size, and English alphabet represented hip girth range.

The standard of chair and desk is decided to design a science laboratory which would help students giving the chance to show their ability and participating spontaneously. The standard is come by the middle school students physical size of the 1986 national physical standard and they are classified into large, medium and small size. The size of laboratory is determined by the size of desk. the distance between desks and the number of students accommodated. By the middle school students physical standard, the heights of chair are 32, 34, 37cm and the widths of chair are 35, 37, 40cm. The desks heights are 53, 58, 63cm and the size is $110{\times}160cm$. The distance between rear and front of desk is 120cm and the left and right side of desk is 150cm. When 24, 36, 60 students are accommodated in laboratory, the size of laboratories are $9.6{\times}10.5m$, $12.7{\times}10.5m$ and $18.8{\times}10.5m$ respectively.

The purpose of this study is to suggest the standard size of a bench in the park. To obtain the basic shapes and size of a bench in the park, several parks are selected as a sample which is located in 6 major cities in Korea. Those obtained basic data of a bench are compared to standard size of a bench in United State and Japan and then human engineering concepts are applied to determine the optimal standard size. Furthermore the standard size of a bench is suggested in two classifications. One for the adults and the other for the children. This study is limited to a determining the standard size of a bench but in the future study, overall facilities in the park for the human being ha<> to be examined.

'Adolescence' is a critical period in the process of growing and aging but important in that an adolescent becomes aware of and begins to look about him or her self. Especially with girls in their late teens (15$\~$18), they pay more attention to their looks and clothes than the boys do, which affects to some extent the formation of their personality and their behavior. From this point .of view. it is significant to establish the standard size of high-school girls' clothes. This study aims to measure high-school girls in size and to establish the standard size of their clothes; furthermore. to enable them to lead a satisfactory living with more appropriate size of clothes. The results, analyzed by two different representing items which resulted in little difference, are as belows: 1) Stature had a significant correlation with posterior waist height; bust girth had the most significant correlation with weight. and also some considerable correlation with other representing items; 2) The F-test result showed significant difference on $1\%$ level over all the items between the measured (Y) and the estimated (Y); the correlation among the representing items was considerable also; 3) When the measurement increases in stature by 4cm, bust girth by 4cm. and posterior shoulder width by 2cm respectively, the increase or decrease in other items are as shown on Table 4. Since this study was carried out in girls' high-schools in Seoul, it is expected to extend its further study throughout the nation. thus contributing to comprehending the whole truth of people's body-size and promoting the fabrication and modelling of the original clothes for the nation by the strict standard size up to making ready-made clothes with no difficulty in setting the standard and model size.

Using panel data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study(KLlPS), we examine the wage differentials between standard and Don-standard workers. To control for unobserved individual heterogeneities, we estimate the fixed effect models. Our results show that the OLS estimates are upwardly biased. We also find that labor unions and firm size are important determinants of the wage differentials.
