주요어: Immune checkpoint Inhibitors, Symptom Burden, Anxiety, Needs Assessment|Abstract
Objective: This descriptive study aimed to assess the symptom experiences,anxiety, depression, and supportive care needs of lung cancer patients undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Additionally, the study sought to identify factors influencing the impact of symptom experiences,Anxiety, and depression on supportive care needs in these patients.
Methods: A structured questionnaire was administered to lung cancer patients undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for data collection. The study included 132 patients treated at A Hospital in Seoul from March 17, 2023, to September 18, 2023. Data were analyzed using SPSS 29.0. Symptom experiences were measured using the M. D. Anderson Symptom Inventory Lung Cancer (MDASI-LC), anxiety and depression were assessed using the Hospital Anxiety-Depression Scale (HADS), and supportive care needs were measured
using the Supportive Care Needs Survey 59.
Results: The key findings of the study are as follows:
1. The average score for symptom experiences was 2.33±1.89, with subcategories indicating an average severity of 2.63±2.01 for symptom
experiences and 2.05±1.88 for the interference of symptoms with daily life. The average anxiety and depression scores were 6.42 and 7.49,
respectively.
2. Supportive care needs were highest in the medical system and information domain, with a score of 54.47±20.60. Other domains included patient care and support needs (44.13±19.52), psychological needs (43.10±18.39), physical and daily life needs (42.90±18.28), other needs (40.61±16.89), and sexual needs (38.08±19.06).
3. Characteristics showing differences in supportive care needs included income level (F=3.263, p=.041), where those reporting income as very difficult had higher needs than others. Significant differences were also observed in financial burden (F=3.840, p=.024), but post hoc analysis revealed no significant differences. ECOG PS (F=16.147, p<.001) showed differences, with ECOG PS 0 being significantly lower than grades 1 and 2, and grades 1 and 2 being significantly lower than grade 3 or higher.
4. Significant positive correlations were found between supportive care needs and symptom experiences (r=.666, p<.001), anxiety (r=.648, p<.001), and depression (r=.564, p<.001). Symptom experiences also had significant positive correlations with anxiety (r=.531, p<.001) and depression (r=.527,p<.001).
5. Regression analysis revealed that the interference of symptoms and anxiety were significant factors influencing supportive care needs, with an explanatory power of 57.2%.
Conclusion: Higher levels of symptom interference and anxiety in lung cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy are associated with increased supportive care needs. Therefore, early prevention and appropriate interventions for symptom experiences and anxiety should be implemented to provide effective supportive care interventions.

좋아하는 일과 잘하는 일: 행복한 사람의 선택
학위논문 (석사)-- 서울대학교 대학원 : 사회과학대학 심리학과, 2018. 8. 최인철.When making career-related decisions, do you prefer pursuing work that you love or work that you do well? Four studies provide evidence that when two intrinsic characteristics—the feeling of liking work versus the feeling of doing it well—are pitted against each other, an individuals level of happiness plays an important role in the career decision-making process. The results of Studies 1 and 2 show that happy people are holding their job because they like doing their work compared to unhappy people and putting more efforts on what they like rather than on what they are competent at. The results of Studies 3 and 4 also show that happy people prioritize the work they love over the work at which they excel, even if they were told that they would perform it poorly. Together, these findings demonstrate that happiness leads people to value doing work they like best more than doing work they do best. Our discussion focuses on the implications of this dilemma for psychological well-being and career decision-making.Introduction 1

The Study on Ferroelectric Domain Patterns Controlled by Twin Stuctures of the Substrate
DoctorThis thesis is mainly consisted of two research topics: One is the film growth mechanism by PLD (Pulsed Laser Deposition) in terms of target-laser interaction and another is new ferroelectric domain patterns on highly elongated BiFeO3 film. Firstly, representative film growth conditions in PLD are temperature, gas partial pressure, and laser intensity. In addition, hidden growing parameter was discovered for LuFe2O4 film growth. The newly suggested growth condition is the process named as 'laser preconditioning', which is certainly necessary to be offered the proper target with component ratio of Lu and Fe closing that of original one. Dealing with the process, we have successfully fabricated epitaxial LuFe2O4 thin films of single phase on sapphire substrates from a stoichiometric target using PLD. This research reminds us of the fundamental principle of PLD in terms of the variation of the component ratio given by different volatility in elements of a target during a growth. Secondly, the strain field affects on the properties of ferroelectric which also regards as ferroelastic. Thin film form offers the strained environment to a ferroelectric bulk. The biaxial strain in between a film and a substrate is very common, here we suggest the newly type of strain on films. We demonstrate the effect of inhomogeneous strain by the buckling in highly elongated BiFeO3 film on LaAlO3 (001) substrate. In particular, the effect gives rise to huge and uniform ferroelectric domain patterns with a high regularity in contrast on those in typical FE films. The driving force for the pattern is thought to be generated from the twin structures of rhombohderal-LAO substrate. Our findings are considered as the very marvelous phenomenon showing the microscopic effect of twins of a substrate on ferroelectric film
Automatic pronunciation assessment of English produced by Korean learners using articulatory features
This paper aims to propose articulatory features as novel predictors for automatic pronunciation assessment of English produced by Korean learners. Based on the distinctive feature theory, where phonemes are represented as a set of articulatory/phonetic properties, we propose articulatory Goodness-Of-Pronunciation(aGOP) features in terms of the corresponding articulatory attributes, such as nasal, sonorant, anterior, etc. An English speech corpus spoken by Korean learners is used in the assessment modeling. In our system, learners speech is forced aligned and recognized by using the acoustic and pronunciation models derived from the WSJ corpus (native North American speech) and the CMU pronouncing dictionary, respectively. In order to compute aGOP features, articulatory models are trained for the corresponding articulatory attributes. In addition to the proposed features, various features which are divided into four categories such as RATE, SEGMENT, SILENCE, and GOP are applied as a baseline. In order to enhance the assessment modeling performance and investigate the weights of the salient features, relevant features are extracted by using Best Subset Selection(BSS). The results show that the proposed model using aGOP features outperform the baseline. In addition, analysis of relevant features extracted by BSS reveals that the selected aGOP features represent the salient variations of Korean learners of English. The results are expected to be effective for automatic pronunciation error detection, as well.N
Acoustic Emission Monitoring of Incipient in Journal Bearings - Part I : Detectability and measurement for bearing damages
일반적으로 구름 베어링 시스템에 비해 발전용 터어빈이나 내연기관 엔진과 같은 저어널 베어링을 가진 시스템은 상대적으로 대형 설비이거나 더 가혹한 운전조건에서 가동되는 경우가 많다. 이런 회전기계류에서의 베어링의 파손은 설비의 운전 중단 및 관련 설비의 파손까지도 초래할 수 있게 된다. 따라서 이로 인한 보수에 소비되는 시간 및 경제적인 손실등을 피하기 위해서는 저어널 베어링의 조기파손 감지의,역할은 매우 중요하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 음향방출 기술을 이용하여 베어링에서 발생할 수 있는 파손의 조기검출을 위해 실험실용으로 직접 제작한 저어널 베어링 시스템을 이용하여 여러 형태의 비정상 조건을 만들어 가며 실험을 행하였다. 베어링 손상 및 피로의 주 요인으로서는 윤활유 부족, 윤활층에의 이물질의 혼입, 조립 불량 등이 대표적인 원인으로서 알려져 있으며 이에 근거하여 실험 조건을 윤활유에의 이물질 혼입, 윤활유 부족, 그리고 축과 베어링간의 금속간 접촉등의 인위적인 형태로 구성하여 실험하였다. 그 결과로서 음향방출 기술이 저어널 베어링의 조기파손 감지에 매우 효과적인 도구라는 것을 입증하였다

Monitoring of Lubrication Conditions in Journal Bearing by Acoustic Emission
Systems with journal bearings generally operate in large scale and under severe loading conditions such as steam generator turbines and internal combustion engines, in contrast to the machineries using rolling element bearings. Failure of the bearings in these machineries can result in the system breakdown. To avoid the time consuming repair and considerable economic loss, the detection of incipient failure in journal bearings becomes very important. In this experimental approach, acoustic emission monitoring is employed to the detection of incipient failure caused by intervention of foreign particles most probable in the journal bearing systems. It has been known that the intervention of foreign materials, insufficient lubrication and misassembly etc. are principal factors to cause bearing failure and distress. The experiment was conducted under such designed conditions as inserting alumina particles to the lubrication layer in the simulated journal bearing system. The results showed that acoustic emission could be an effective tool to detect the incipient failure in journal bearings

학위논문(박사) - 한국과학기술원 : 테크노경영대학원, 1996.8, [ vi, 135 p. ]The auditor assignment planning process is regarded as a multi-agent multi-objective decision making problem that needs to balance between the "auditing firm``s profit and audit risk" and the "individual auditor``s preference". The balance between the firm``s profit to be optimized by linear programming model and the audit models are a highly useful forecasting method, but are deficient in the sense that they merely extrapolate past patterns in the data without taking into account the expected irregular future events. To overcome this limitation, forecasting experts in practice judgmentally adjust the statistical forecasts. Typical judgmental factors may be treated as outliers in statistical analysis. To automatic the judgmental adjustment process, neural network models are developed in this study. To collect the data for judgmental events, judgmental effects are filtered out of raw data. The main trend is captured by a neural network model using the filtered data, while judgmental effects are modeled by another neural network. Then the judgmental effects are additively adjusted. Performance of this architecture is tested in comparison with five other architectures:한국과학기술원 : 테크노경영대학원
