An Soomin,Kim Youn-Jung,Han Ga Young,Eo Wankyu 한국기초간호학회 2022 Journal of korean biological nursing science Vol.24 No.1

Purpose: To determine the prognostic role of muscle area and muscle radiation attenuation in the erector spinae (ES) and multifidus (MF) muscles in patients undergoing gastrectomy. Methods: Patients with stage I-III gastric cancer undergoing gastrectomy were retrospectively enrolled in this study. Clinicopathologic characteristics were collected and analyzed. Both paraspinal muscle index of ES/MF muscles (PMIEM) and paraspinal muscle radiation attenuation in the same muscles (PMRAEM) were analyzed at the 3rd lumbar level using axial computed tomographic images. Cox regression analysis was applied to estimate overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Results: There was only a weak correlation between PMIEM and PMRAEM (r=0.28). Multivariate Cox regression revealed that PMRAEM, but not PMIEM, was an important determinant of survival. PMRAEM along with age, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage, perineural invasion, and serum albumin level were significant determinants of both OS and DFS that constituted Model 1. Harrell’s concordance index and integrated area under receiver operating characteristic curve were greater for Model 1 than for Model 2 (consisting of the same covariates as Model 1 except PMRAEM) or Model 3 (consisting of only TNM stage). Conclusion: PMRAEM, but not PMIEM, was an important determinant of survival. Because there was only a weak correlation between PMIEM and PMRAEM in this study, it was presumed that they were mutually exclusive. Model 1 consisting of age, TNM stage, perineural invasion, serum albumin level, and PMRAEM was greater than nested models (i.e., Model 2 or Model 3) in predicting survival outcomes.

Theoretical Interdisciplinarity between Psychological Marketing Practice and Woman’s Narcissism in Distribution Channels

Soomin HAN 한국유통과학회 2020 유통과학연구 Vol.18 No.12

Purpose: This study points out that psychological marketing practice can align to narcissism among women through showing urgency and scarcity. While women are competitive, jealous, and attention seeking, marketers can offer limited-time offers to increase the urge of customers to purchase. Research design, data, and methodology: To conduct a content analysis, the present author obtained data from various databases such as ABI/INFORM, EBSCO/ EBSCO, ProQuest, and EBSCO. Ultimately, this study investigated both latent and manifest themes of narcissism and psychological marketing concepts to find solutions that leaders can use to initiate change in organizations. Results: The current study suggests that narcissistic women insist on having the best things but still have the inability to acknowledge other people’s feelings. Therefore, psychological marketing can utilize such traits to ensure that the quality of their commodities matches their promises during marketing and that their customer’s needs are not infringed at the expense of another customer’s needs Conclusions: One of the implications of narcissism in marketing provides is that brands can easily gravitate towards litigations especially amidst unhealthy competitions. In the process of getting customers to acknowledge another brand as a better option, the competition may stir corporate conflict.

한수민 ( Soomin Han ),임병노 ( Byungro Lim ) 한국교육공학회 2016 교육공학연구 Vol.32 No.4

실천적 지식은 가정생활, 직업생활 등 개인이 위치한 삶의 모든 영역에서 자신의 최선의 역량을 발휘하도록 하는 지식으로서 매우 중요하지만 그동안 단편적인 행동 수행이나 성과 도출을 위한 지식으로 왜곡되어 왔다. 이에, 본 연구는 실천적 지식에 대한 본질적 개념을 정립하고, 실천적 지식 구성을 위한 효과적인 교수-학습 모형을 개발하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위해 문헌연구에 기반한 형성적 연구방법론에 따라 ① 문헌연구 및 이론적 탐색을 통한 실천적 지식의 개념 정립, 이를 토대로 한 실천적 지식 구성을 위한 교수-학습 원리 도출 ② 도출한 원리를 중심으로 모형의 설계 요소 및 설계 전략을 구체화하여 원형 모형 개발, 전문가 타당화 실시 ③ 전문가 의견을 반영하여 수정·보완된 원형 모형에 따라 수업사례 개발 및 적용, 결과 자료 분석 및 이를 반영한 원형 모형을 수정 및 보완 ④ 최종 도출된 모형에 대한 전문가 타당화 실시의 절차로 개발하였다. 연구 결과로 개발된 실천적 지식 구성을 위한 교수-학습 모형(PKC 모형)은 ① 사전학습활동(수업소개, 학습주제와 관련한 이론, 가치, 실천경험 측면의 선지식 활성화 및 동기유발(전체 맥락 조망, 학습주제 조망), 팀구성, 가치규명 및 성찰) ② 본학습활동(학습자 분석 및 요구에 따른 실제 문제를 활용한 문제해결활동(팀별 실천경험활동, 개별 실천계획수립활동), 학습정리) ③ 사후학습활동(실천계획수립에 따른 실천 및 지속적인 성찰적 실천을 통한 지식 재구성)으로 이루어진다. 모형에 대한 평가 결과 실천적 지식 구성을 위한 교수-학습 모형으로 타당한 것으로 나타났다. PKC 모형은 실천적 지식에 대한 개념 정립을 바탕으로 실천적 지식이 효과적으로 구성될 수 있는 지식 구성 과정을 모형화한 것으로서 실천적 지식에 대한 올바른 이해와 실천적 지식 구성을 돕는 효과적인 모형이라는 점에서 의의가 있다. The purpose of this study is to develop an instructional model for practical knowledge construction (PKC Model). Practical knowledge helps learners to exert one`s competencies in many areas of life such as family life and vocational life. The purposes of this study are 1) to define practical knowledge and identify its components, 2) to draw knowledge construction principles, and 3) to develop a practical model for the knowledge. Based on formative research methodology, this study took four steps: 1) Based on the literature review, `practical knowledge` and its elements were defined, 2) after instructional principles, design elements and strategies were identified, a model prototype was developed, 3) the model prototype was applied in the real setting in a college, and 4) the model was revised based on the collected data, and finally validated. As a result, stages and components of the model are as follow: 1) Pre-learning activity stage: Introduction, activity of prior knowledge and motivation, team organization, value identification and reflection. 2) Main-learning activity stage: Learning to solve problem based on real problems, review. 3) Post-learning activity stage: Practice by planning detailed practice in a context, and practical knowledge construction through continuous reflection-in-action. The PCK model helps students to learn how to construct practical knowledge and to construct practical knowledge on real problems related to subjects through the activities. The model is expected to efficiently facilitate practical knowledge building.

FDI가 국내기업 생산성에 미치는 이질적 파급효과 분석

韓秀旼 ( Soomin Han ),金成炫 ( Sunghyun Kim ) 한국국제경제학회 2021 국제경제연구 Vol.27 No.1

본 논문은 2006-2017년 우리나라 제조업 데이터를 사용하여 외국인직접투자(FDI)의 생산성 파급효과를 국내기업의 특성과 투자 원천국 특성을 고려하여 분석한다. 전체 FDI를 대상으로 보면 부정적인 동일산업 내 수평적 파급효과와 긍정적인 연관산업 간 수직적 파급효과가 나타났다. 국내기업 특성 중 수출지향성 정도는 생산성 파급효과에 영향이 없지만, 기존 생산성 수준이 높은 기업만을 따로 보면 파급효과 정도는 더욱 커진다. FDI를 원천국별로 구분하여 분석한 결과 일본과 영국발 FDI의 경우 전체 FDI를 대상으로 분석한 결과와 같으나, 미국발 FDI의 경우 반대로 긍정적인 수평적 파급효과와 부정적인 수직적 파급효과가 나타났다. 미국발 FDI기업은 상대적으로 한국내 현지기업에서 중간재를 조달하기보다는 본국의 모기업과의 거래가 많기 때문인것으로 파악된다. 또한 기술 흡수능력이 높은 국내기업들은 그렇지 않은 기업들에 비해 FDI 생산성 파급효과가 증가함을 알수있다. 이와 같이 FDI의 생산성 파급효과가 투자 원천국이나 국내기업의 특성에 따라 다르다는 결과는 FDI 유치정책을 수립하는데 중요한 정책적 시사점을 제공한다. This study uses firm-level data from 2007 to 2017 to analyze whether domestic firms' characteristics and FDI source countries affect the degree of FDI spillover effects in Korea. Regression results from the whole sample present negative intra-industry horizontal and positive inter-industry vertical spillover effects, similar to previous studies. Consideration of domestic firms' characteristics reveals that domestic firms' export-orientedness does not affect the spillover effects, while domestic firms' productivity matters for the FDI spillover effects. In particular, domestic firms with higher productivity shows more positive vertical FDI spillover effects. Spillover effects from Japan and U.K FDI firms present a consistent sign with the whole sample results, while the US FDI shows positive horizontal and negative vertical spillover effects. US FDI firms have more intra-firm transactions with the parent company, which generates weaker vertical spillover effects. Absorption capacity plays a role in capturing the positive spillover effects. In conclusion, it is important to consider source countries and domestic firms' characteristics when establishing FDI related policies.

공서양속에 반하는 중재판결

한수민(Soomin Han),김진비(Jinbi Kim),이재혁(Jaehyuk Lee) 한국중재학회 2024 중재연구 Vol.34 No.1

This paper examines issues concerning conflicts between arbitral awards and public interests, particularly with respect to economic sanctions. Sanctions have been widely used by political entities, such as States and organizations, as means to promote public interests and to resolve cross-border disputes. In particular, economic sanctions have been increasingly more visible in recent years due to the accelerating fragmentation of the international communities, and their magnitude and range of the impacts have grown accordingly. For example, the U.S. and the EU have imposed economic sanctions on Russia and related persons in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The U.S. recently re-introduced a comprehensive economic sanction on Iran. One of the notable impacts of the sanctions, particularly economic sanctions, is that on international arbitration. Sanctions are essentially built on the notion of the protection of public interests, and public interests are some of the few grounds upon which recognition and enforceability or arbitral awards may be rejected. However, jurisprudence on such conflict between sanctions and arbitral awards have not been sufficiently addressed in Korea because court case and administrative decision records on this conflict have not been sufficiently accumulated. In this regard, this paper begins with offering a survey of the concept of public interests, economic and trade sanctions, arbitral awards and their enforceability, and the relationships between them. It then examines the mechanism upon which public interests, trade and economic sanctions may lead certain arbitral awards unenforceable. Next, the paper suggests judiciaries’ balanced approach toward the public interests protected by trade and economic sanctions and the predictability and fairness in the enforcement of arbitral awards. Finally, this paper concludes with the methods of the implementation of such balanced approach.
