This Study attempted to comprehend difference between hiker and non-hiker's sense of place value at Namhansanseong Provincial Park. Especially, it was analyzed after visitors, who were divided into local residents & tourists and first time visitors & repeat visitors. Out of 600 visitors, who were over 19 years old, participated in the survey, 587 responses were used for data analysis. Consequently, Sense of place value at Namhansanseong Provincial Park were classified into three factors: Health Culture, Ecology Environment, and Connectedness. Hikers feel higher value on promotion of health, relaxation, environment than non-hikers. Among hikers, local residents feel higher value on ecology environment and connectedness than tourists. Among non-hikers, however, they have no difference between local residents and tourists, only repeat visitors and first time visitors. On this result, possibility of resident participation management on natural environment and trail was considered, and when the program, which is for raising cultural and traditional value, would develop, increasing number of repeat visitor should be considered as a high priority.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to analyze the general features of patients with idiopathic faical paralysis. Methods : We investigated the various features and HBGS (House-Brackmann Grading System) of 505 patients who were diagnosed with idiopathic facial paralysis. Results and Conclusions : 1. The sex distribution was 264 male cases, and 241 female cases, and the majority of them were in their 40s. 2. Overwork was the most frequent contributing factor to their paralysis. 3. The treatment of most patients was completed within 2 months. 4. Their recovery was faster if their first hospital visit was sooner and their paralysis was partial. On average, the patients recovered within 19.5 to 27.8 days and it took much less time than natural recovery. 5. When looking at the BMI of the selected patients for this study, 62.00% were obese while 14.37% were under-weight. Among the obese patients, there were more with Xu mai (虛脈) than Shi mai (實脈). For the under-weight patients, most had Shuo mai (數脈) while none had Chi mai (遲脈).

Purpose: In the Korean armed forces, vaccination against tetanus is done when personnel join the military service, but we do not know how many military personnel are vaccinated and how many soldiers have protection against tetanus. We performed a qualitative analysis of the tetanus antibody in Korean military personnel by using the TQS (Tetanus Quick Stick) Methods: This study used a prospective collection method for military personnel visiting to the emergency department of a tertiary armed forces hospital from July 2005 to January 2007. We performed an analysis by using the TQS and asked whether the personnel had been inoculated during military service. Results: The number of enrolled military personnel was 474. Among them, 412 had been vaccinated against tetanus after entering the military service. The positive rate of TQS was 91.3% (373 patients) after vaccination for tetanus. Conclusion: Many military personnel were inoculated with tetanus toxoid during military service and have protective antibodies for tetanus. According as TQS should be used for military personnel who visit the emergency department of an armed forces hospital. Also, anti-tetanus immunoglobulin should not normally be used a positive TQS for tetanus prophylaxis.

Purpose: This study was conducted to compare the level of health concern and the health practice of adult women depending on their experiences with cosmetic tattooing. Methods: The participants were 396 adult women in Jeonnam and Jeonbuk Provinces and G City. Their levels of health concern were measured using the 5-point-5-item scale designed by Kim. For measuring their health practice, the 5-point-12-item scale designed by Kwak was used. Results: The percentage of cosmetic tattooed women was 58.8%. The average score of their health concern was 3.12 and that of their health practice 3.54. As for their levels of health concern, no differences were observed between those with cosmetic tattoo experience and those without. However, the group with cosmetic tattoo experience exhibited a higher level of health practice. Also, most members of the cosmetic tattooed group decided to visit their tattoo shops based on the availability of tattoo shapes or prices rather than considering infection risks. Conclusion: Health education is necessary to increase people's sensitivity to infection. This study shows that urgent attention for the management and regulation of the relevant ministries is required. Also, this study provides foundational information that will serve health education.

Tourist Information Center has been played an important part of role in the promotion of tourism for both inbound and domestic market. The purpose of this paper is to examine the situation of our tourist information centers in context with information and personnel service. As a result we suggested some findings. According to studies, tourism information provided by TIC is critical and decisive for specific travel type and leisure travelers visit TIC more often than the other types of travelers. The specific aspects of tourism information is accuracy and currency which based on the characteristics of intangibility and perishability. According to this encouragement tourism information system should have to shifted to internet basis. This movement enabled tourism industry to make the atmosphere for portal or hub site for the effective operation of this system. The regionally networked system can make it possible to cope with some characteristics of tourism products. Reservations and information retrievals are major function of portal site. The data from suppliers (hotels, restaurants, event organizers, transportation, attractions etc) must be up-dated, controled by regional TIC and the connections should be extended among the regional TICs.

The study intends to systematically arrange and classify the museum layouts in terms of their structure of exhibition space. The exhibition space, here, means the whole area where visitors are allowed to move and visit in museums. Through this, I tied to understand the characteristics and trends comparing and analyzing international and national exhibition space layout, and then grope the standard in case of establishing museum. The first criteria is based on the point of view that the typical museum experience is made in the exhibition space. Accordingly, the exhibition space can be grouped into two categories; one is 'room type' consisting mostly of individual rooms as in classical museums, and the other is 'open plan type' consisting free standing walls as in miesian free plan. The second criteria is dependent on the way how visitors move about in exhibition spaces. In other words, museum layouts can be categorized in terms of mutual connection between individual spaces including exhibition spaces and corridor spaces designated for the purpose of moving. consequently, the layouts can be categorized into five groups such as 'free plan', 'linear type', 'room to room', 'room & corridor' and 'composition type'. The third criteria is about the overall structure of museum layouts including such elements as whether it contains a certain type of central major space or not and whether and how the exhibition spaces are connected to it. By applying these classificatory criteria, the study analyzed and classified 90 sample of museum layouts in order to understand clearly and succintly the spatial characteristics and implications contained in them.

When people visit other countries, the first place to go would be either a museum or an art gallery because it might be the most effective way that people could understand culture and history of the place in a short time. It can be alleged that a museum must be an important cultural space because people can experience their life, history and art there. According to these cultural importance, the purpose of this study is to suggest the environmental design of $\boxDr$Design Museum$\boxUl$ through the Transparency of the Cubism. The Transparency means a capability of transmitting light so that objects on the other side can be seen clearly. The Concept of the Transparency could be taken effects in architecture by overlapping facets or space. By understanding formative properties of the Cubism, which especially focused on Transparency, 1 would like to propose the environment as an art and the exhibition-environment as a way of communication. As it were, the study can be valued as a new approach on condition that formative feature is interpreted with modern terms and the ‘Digital technology’ is not used a tool of representation but a tool of thought in terms of design. Moreover, it has a great significance that formative language of the Cubism will be able to be applied to the environmental design through the experimental and creative design process.

Purpose: This study was conducted to measure adiposity and to investigate related factors in preschoolers born prematurely. Methods: A longitudinal follow-up study was conducted with 52 preschoolers at 5 years of corrected age among 343 preterm infants. Their adiposity status was evaluated based on measurements of body mass index, subscapular and triceps skin fold thickness (SFT), waist circumference, waist-to-height ratio, and mid-arm circumference at a home visit. Results: The findings showed that SFT measurements, particularly at the triceps, reflected the degree of adiposity more accurately than other conventional measures. A shorter gestation, older maternal age, and the mother having more years of formal education were associated with higher levels of adiposity in the preschoolers. Conclusion: The adiposity of children born prematurely needs to be thoroughly monitored with additional SFT measurements, considering the risk of accelerated growth patterns overriding regular catch-up growth in children born prematurely.

The purpose of Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) is to design the least costly (distance, time) routes for a fleet of identically capacitated vehicles to serve geographically scattered customers. There may be some restrictions such as the maximal capacity for each vehicle, maximal distance for each vehicle, time window to visit the specific customers, and so forth. This paper is concerned with VRP to minimize the sum of elapsed time from departure, where the elapsed time is defined as the time taken in a moving vehicle from the depot to each customer. It is important to control the time taken from departure in the delivery of perishable products or foods, whose freshness may deteriorate during the delivery time. An integer linear programming formulation is suggested and a heuristic for practical use is constructed. The heuristic is based on the set partitioning problem whose performances are compared with those of ILOG dispatcher. It is shown that the suggested heuristic gave good solutions within a short computation time by computational experiments.

The purpose of this study was to provide useful information which would help web-site planning and design, product composition, and service of internet shopping malls. The sample consisted of 693 university students who had visited(Ed- in this case 'visit' means to enter an internet site; note also that the past perfect tense already conveys the meaning of 'experience') internet fashion shopping malls or purchased clothing through internet. Data were analyzed by factor analysis, frequency, t-test, and ANOVA(LSD) using SPSSWIN. The results were as follows： 1) The evaluative criteria of internet fashion shopping malls could be categorized by 4 factors： product presentation method, design, product information, sales promotion ＆ additional service; the first of which was found to be the most important. These criteria showed significant differences according to the period and time of access. Furthermore, the degree of consideration for these criteria was high, whereas the degree of satisfaction was low. 2) The evaluative criteria of clothing could be categorized by 6 factors： general characteristics of products, wearing comfort ＆ ease of management, popularity ＆ status symbolism, service, aesthetics, and textiles materials; the first of which was found to be the most important. These criteria were significantly different according to the periods, time, and purposes of access, and purchase experiences.
