The aim of this study was to evaluate the readability and suitability of patients' education materials on DM. A total of 34 materials on DM from public health centers, general hospitals, and internet web sites were evaluated for readability by 'graded system of vocabulary', and suitability by 'The Korean version of SAM(Suitability Assessment of Materials)'. On the average, 28.3% of 1st grade reading level words, 27.1% of 5th grade level and over were included in educational materials. For suitability, 6(17.6%) were judged superior, 20(58.8%) adequate, 8(23.6%) inadequate. The reading level of the materials was higher than the recommended reading level(6th grade reading level). For suitability, most of materials were inadequate in some of items such as 'summary or review included', 'context given', 'interaction used'. It is proposed that in the development of patients' educational materials, health literacy of target population should be considered.

본 연구는 비도시지역의 생물종 서식지 보전을 위해 반영할 수 있는 생물종 관련 지표의 개발과 관리지역 세분화 방안을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 생물종 서식분포를 예측한 후에 예측된 서식분포를 활용하여 종풍부도를 만들고 그 결과를 토지적성평가와 비교를 하였다. 종분포도는 59종을 대상으로 Maxent 모형을 사용하였고 15개의 모형변수(5개 지형변수, 4개 식생변수, 6개 거리변수)를 활용하였다. 예측된 생물종 서식분포를 출현/비출현으로 구분한 후 합산하여 종풍부도를 예측 하였다. 토지적성평가는 평가체계 I에 따라 보전, 농업, 개발적성을 물리적, 지역, 공간적 입지 특성별로 평가하였다. 종풍부도 등급과 토지적성평가 등급과의 비교결과는 1등급은 10.92%, 2등급은 37.10%, 3등급은 34.56%, 4등급은 20.89% 그리고 5등급은 1.73%의 면적 일치도가 나타났다. 보전관리지역으로 분류되는 1등급과 계획관리지역으로 분류되는 5등급의 일치도가 가장 낮았다. 이처럼 계획관리지역으로 분류되어도, 종풍부도를 고려해 보면 많은 계획관리지역이 상대적으로 높은 종풍부도 값을 보여주었다. 관리지역은 생물종 서식지의 핵심지역은 아니지만 경관생태학적 관점에서 주변 서식처, 이동통로 등을 제공하면서 생물다양성 보호에 기여 할 수 있다. 따라서 도시관리계획에서 잠재적 생물종 서식분포를 고려하는 노력이 보다 집중되어야 할 것이다.

The objectives of this study are to build up the concept of Environment-Oriented Land Suitability Assessment(EOLSA) and to develop the EOLSA mapping system by applying the EOLSA criteria to the case study area. In order to draw out the EOLSA critera, this study adopted the Delphi method including the experts' awareness survey to urban planners as well as environmental researchers in May and June 2001. As a result, the concept of EPLSA was defined as a process of land use planning to scientifically assess the physical and environmental value of land and to classify conservation aptitude into several grades for the sustainable management of environmental resources. With an outcome of applying the EOLSA criteria with five degrees to the Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA), Grade I, indicating the highest conservation value, accounted for 57.76% of the SMA. Then, Grade II reached up to 15.06%, Grade III 3.12%, Grade IV 15.92%, and Grade V, the lowest conservation value, 7.99% respectively. And also, the case analysis showed that the share of Grade I area was the highest in Gapyong county and Yangpyong county, Pochon county, Yeonchon county, Yongin city in the order and the lowest in Kwangmyong city, Osan city, Kunpo city, Kuri city, and Buchon city.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the suitability and readability of printed educational materials for patients with hypertension in Korea. Methods: A total of 33 written educational materials related to hypertension were collected from public health centers, hospitals, and internet web site. Among them, we analyzed 19 materials which fit the inclusion criteria: leaflets (n=9), booklets (n=3), and guide book (n=7). Two trained nurses evaluate the materials using suitability assessment tool (SAM; Doak, Doak, & Root, 1996) and graded lexical items for teaching Korean (Kim, 2003). Results: Overall, 14 (73.7%) of 19 materials scored adequate, and 5 (26.3%) scored inadequate. On the average, the education materials contained 36.1% to 50.5% of 1st grade reading level words and 12.9% to 21.6% of 4th grade level and over. Conclusion: The reading level of the materials was higher than a 6th grade reading level. It is proposed that the written educational materials should be developed by health professionals according to suitability and quality by taking the target group's literacy capacity into consideration.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess the readability and suitability of printed educational materials related to metabolic syndrome in South Korea. Methods: Data were collected on 15 educational materials on metabolic syndrome from public health centers in Seoul. The 9 Graded Korean Vocabulary Classification and Korean version of SAM (Suitability Assessment of Materials) were used for the readability evaluation and the suitability evaluation respectively. Results: Overall average of the readability was 3.0th grade level. The percentage of 1st to 4th grade words was 79.4%. The printed educational materials on metabolic syndrome were written according to recommended reading levels. In suitability assessment, 2 out of 15 materials(13.3%) were scored as superior, 12 materials(80.0%) were scored as adequate and only 1 (6.7%) was scored as inadequate. The total average score of suitability was adequate. However, there are limitations in "summary and review" and "context is given first" due to limited writing pages. Conclusion: Readability and suitability of educational materials for metabolic syndrome were evaluated as adequate level. However, future health educational materials should be evaluated for readability via different factors including length of sentences, numbers of sentences, and structure of sentences. In addition, for easier understanding and motivation of readers, materials should use summary & review, context and proper interaction.

토지적성평가는 토지가 가진 물리적 특성, 공간입지적 특성, 주변환경 특성들을 토대로 토지의 이용가능성과 보전 필요성에 따라 등급을 평가$\cdot$구분하는 것이다. 따라서 적성값의 산정과 등급 부여 기준 등의 평가방법이 얼마나 합리적인가에 따라서 평가결과의 신뢰성이 좌우된다고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구는 현행 토지적성평가의 평가방법을 비평적으로 검토하여 평가방법의 문제점을 도출하고, 보다 적정한 종합적성값 산정방법과 적성등급 부여방법에 대한 개선방안을 모색하는 데 목적을 두었다. 각 평가지표에 대한 임계치 설정과 가중치를 적용하는 대신에 선형변환법을 적용하여 지표들을 점수화하고, 모든 평가지표 점수를 합산하여 종합적성값을 산정한 후, 이를 서열화하여 면적비율을 기준으로 적성등급을 구분하는 방법을 대안으로 제시하였다. 사례지역을 대상으로 현행 지침에 따른 평가방법과 대안에 따른 평가방법 결과를 비교해 본 결과 대안에 따른 결과가 현행 지침에 의한 결과보다 평가지표 의 측정치 분포패턴을 보다 잘 반영해주는 점수로 변환하며, 종합적성값 산정 결과도 현실성을 더 잘 나타내는 것으로 검증되었다. 무엇보다도 위성영상을 통해 판독된 현지의 토지이용 현황을 참조해본 결과 대안적 평가방법에 따른 적성등급 부여가 칠씬 더 적정한 것으로 판정되었다. 뿐만 아니라 대안에 따른 적성등급 부여방식이 표준화지수로 변환시켜서 등급을 부여하는 현행 지침의 문제점을 개선해주고 보다 유연성을 부여해주는 합리적인 방법이라고 평가될 수 있다.

Objective: The aim of this study is to develop management guidelines and a procedure for an anthropometric suitability assessment of the main control room (MCR) in nuclear power plants (NPPs). Background: The condition of the MCR should be suitable for the work crews in NPPs. The suitability of the MCR depends closely on the anthropometric dimensions and ergonomic factors of the users. In particular, the MCR workspace design in NPPs is important due to the close relationship with operating crews and their work failures. Many documents and criteria have recommended that anthropometry dimensions and their studies are one of the foremost processes of the MCR design in NPPs. If these factors are not properly considered, users can feel burdened about their work and the human errors that might occur. Method: The procedure for the anthropometric suitability assessment consists of 5 phases: 1) selection of the anthropometric suitability evaluation dimensions, 2) establishment of a measurement method according to the evaluation dimensions, 3) establishment of criteria for suitability evaluation dimensions, 4) establishment of rating scale and improvement methods according to the evaluation dimensions, and 5) assessment of the final grade for evaluation dimensions. The management guidelines for an anthropometric suitability assessment were completed using 10 factors: 1) director, 2) subject, 3) evaluation period, 4) measurement method and criteria, 5) selection of equipment, 6) measurement and evaluation, 7) suitability evaluation, 8) data sharing, 9) data storage, and 10) management according to the suitability grade. Results: We propose a set of 17 anthropometric dimensions for the size, cognition/perception action/behavior, and their relationships with human errors regarding the MCR design variables through a case study. The 17 selected dimensions are height, sitting height, eye height from floor, eye height above seat, arm length, functional reach, extended functional reach, radius reach, visual field, peripheral perception, hyperopia/myopia/astigmatism, color blindness, auditory acuity, finger dexterity, hand function, body angle, and manual muscle test. We proposed criteria on these 17 anthropometric dimensions for a suitability evaluation and suggested an improvement method according to the evaluation dimensions. Conclusion: The results of this study can improve the human performance of the crew in an MCR. These management guidelines and a procedure for an anthropometric suitability assessment will be able to prevent human errors due to inadequate anthropometric dimensions. Application: The proposed set of anthropometric dimensions can be integrated into a managerial index for the anthropometric suitability of the operating crews for more careful countermeasures to human errors in NPPs.

1980년대 후반 GIS분석 기법이 소개되면서 GIS를 활용한 토지이용에 관한 연구가 다양한 측면에서 진행되었으며, 2003년 이후에는 국토의 난개발 방지를 위해 환경 친화적인 녹색성장 측면에서의 국토관리를 계획하고자 토지적성평가제도가 도입되었다. 특히 용도지역의 지정 및 변경, 도시계획시설 설치 및 정비 등의 계획을 입안하기 위해 지형분석, 중첩분석, 거리분석 등 다양한 GIS분석 기법을 기반으로 한 토지적성평가 평가체계II가 도입되었다. 그러나 기초자료의 부정확, 평가지표상의 문제, 지역실정에 부합되지 않는 임계치, 평가체계간 평가결과 상충 등 많은 문제점들이 지적되었으며, 평가기준에 적합하지 않더라도 지표별 점수분포를 20점부터 적용하고 있어 개발위주의 평가결과를 제공하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 현행 지침에서 지표별 점수를 20점부터 100점까지 제시하고 있는 점수분포 체계를 0점에서부터 100점까지 변경함으로써 적성값과 적성등급의 변화를 살펴보았다. 그 결과, 일부 필지에 대해서 등급변화가 나타났으며, 적성값의 경우 87%에 해당되는 필지들 의 값이 최소 1점에서 최대 70점까지 하락하는 변화를 보였다. 이는 평가체계II의 점수분포 체계의 변화가 적성등급과 적성값에 많은 영향을 미치게 되는 동시에 개발과 보전의 양면성을 모두 고려하였다는 측면에서 그리고 실증적 분석을 하였다는데 그 의의가 있다.

The purpose of this study was to provide basic information on the propriety of the ready to wear garment sizes of Tween Generation(ages from 5th grade to 8th grade) who has different clothing preferences in color, styles, and design and also different body sizes and shapes from younger and older students. The objectives of the study were to ascertain (a) the body figure changes occurring during Tween Generation; (b) the coverage of manufactures'garment sizes. The body measurements of elementary school students(5th & 6th grades) and junior high school students(7th & 8th grades) provide the basic statistics for this study. The mean differences of each size within each figure type are compared by using t-teats. The differences in various manufacturers'apparel sizing and figure size are investigated. Also the body measurements and the apparel sizes of the manufacturers are compared in order to evaluate the suitability of the garment size. Results indicate that the body type factors are different in each age group. And manufactures'sizes come out to be much smaller than the actual body measurements. Young casual wear can cover junior high school students satisfactorily but for elementary school students, because of low drop-value, the overall satisfaction with filling is low.
