본 논문의 목적은 『생성소멸론』 1권 2장을 분석하여 ‘크기’ 혹은 ‘공간’의 구조와 관련된 아리스토텔레스의 입장을 밝히는 것이다. 크기는 모든 곳에서 분할되어 크기 아닌 것으로 분할되거나, 더 이상 분할이 불가능한 최소 크기를 갖는다. 『생성소멸론』 1권 2장에 따르면, 허무주의적 입장과 원자론적 입장은 모두 문제점을 노정하고 있다. 첫 번 째로 분할되지 않는 원자적 크기가 있다는 주장은 왜 분할이 저기서는 되는데 여기서는 안되는지를 설명할 수 없고, 둘째로 남김없이 모든 곳에서 분할되는 구조는 점들이 모여 크기를 구성하게 되거나, 실재하지 않는 것 들이 모여 크기를 구성하게 된다는 문제점을 갖는다. 그런데 이 두 입장을 종합해 나가는 과정이 단순하지 않다는 점이 『생성소멸론』 1권 2장에 대한 구체적인 분석을 요구한다. 분석을 거쳐 제 3의 입장으로 제시되는 아리스토텔레스의 연속적인 공간은 원자론과 달리 계속해서 분할할 수 있고, 허무주의와 달리 두 개의 점이 단독으로 선을 구성할 수 없는 공간임이 밝혀질 것이다. 그의 공간은 무한하게 분할될 수 있지만, 점과 점(경계와 경계) 사이에 항상 선(연장)이 전제되어 있는 공간이다.

This paper aims to present what the structure of 'space' or 'size' is through the Aristotle's viewpoint. And this explanation is clarified through studying De Generatione et Corruptione(=GC)Ⅰ 2. Space is divided everywhere into no size, or divided into minimum size which can not be divisible. According to GC Ⅰ 2, both 'nihilistic' position and 'atomistic' position have problems. First of all, the claim that there is indivisible atomic size can not explain why division is possible not here but there. Second, the structure that is divided into all places without leaving has the problem that the real thing is assembled by no real things. But the point is that these two problems require a detailed analysis of GC Ⅰ 2. Aristotle's continuous space which is presented through this analysis is divisible ad infinitum against atomism, and can not be space that one line can not be configured by solely two points unlike nihilistic position. His standpoint is that space is divisible ad infinitum, but there is always a line(extention) between two points(limits).

Purpose: This study aimed to utilize concept analysis to obtain a better understanding of the concept of "continuity of care" in chronic diseases. Methods: The concept of continuity of care was analyzed using the Walker and Avant method. Covering literature in English from 1930 to 2018, the data sources included CINAHL Complete, Academic Search Complete, MEDLINE, PsyARTICLES, Health Source: Nursing/Academic Edition, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and the Cochrane Library. Results: A comprehensive definition of concept of continuity of care was developed based on a systematic search and synthesis. The key defining attributes were identified as (a) care over time, (b) the relationship between an individual patient and a care team, (c) information transfer, (d) coordination, and (e) meeting changing needs. The antecedents of continuity of care were having a chronic disease, inexperienced with disease management, a poorly coordinated healthcare system, and medical care limitations. The consequences of continuity of care were decreasing hospital admissions, reducing costs, reducing emergency room visits, improving the quality of life, improving patient satisfaction, and delivering good healthcare. Conclusion: The thorough concept analysis provides insight into the nature of "continuity of care" in chronic diseases and also helps ground the concept in healthcare.

The primary function of an electronic records management system (ERMS) is to support organisations in providing effective records management services by enabling efficient remote access to the organisations' records. This helps the organisation to continue running during emergency events, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The need to study ERMS for accessing records remotely has increased dramatically, due to the increase in daily use. The situation arising from the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the need for implementing proper digital systems, such as ERMS, to enable efficient work processes and enhance business continuity. An ERMS has the potential to allow organisations to create records and workflows off-site. During a pandemic, the ability to structure processes digitally helps in maintaining operations remotely. This study aims to provide a narrative review of the ERMS literature with an emphasis on explaining the primary components of ERMS that act as enablers for the implementation of the system in the oil and gas sector of developing countries. The current study proposes ERMS roles and responsibilities that could enhance business continuity. The authors use a qualitative narrative review and analyse the literature related to this study and its findings. The results show that, in cases of risk or crises, staff members need to have easy access to their records and documents to remain productive. An ERMS allows professionals to remain active and work off-site. Thus, ERMS play a significant role in protecting an organisation's content through the monitoring and control over who has authorisation to access its records.

This study examined the factors influencing volunteer activity continuity among young adults. Using data from 330 respondents collected through online surveys, we investigated the relationships between volunteer motivation, satisfaction, facilitating factors, and intention to continue volunteering. The research employed correlation analysis, generalized linear models (GLM), and dual mediation analysis using JASP. Results revealed that volunteer motivation had a strong direct effect on continuity intention. Additionally, motivation influenced continuity through two mediation pathways: (1) through satisfaction, and (2) through the dual mediation of satisfaction and facilitating factors. The dual mediation model demonstrated superior fit compared to alternative models, explaining that satisfaction with volunteer activities and facilitating factors both significantly contributed to continuity intention. These findings suggest that while motivation directly promotes volunteer continuity, organizational and psychological support systems play crucial mediating roles. Understanding volunteers' perceived needs for psychological and organizational conditions is essential for developing effective retention strategies in volunteer management, particularly for young adult volunteers.

The dynamic adaptation between various service environments using the application profiles for the service continuity is a key issue of the profile-based service continuity framework (PSCF) for N-screen service using next generation networks. PSCF offers an optimized service framework for providing continuous user services, which are multimedia video streaming, educational broadcasting, game, etc., using the various devices that are not restricted by the service environment of the user. This paper specifies the functional model of PSCF, service scenario and explains the experimental results of the service continuity for N-screen service using PSCF.

Purpose: This study aims to develop and test the psychometric properties of a scale for measuring the continuity of care specific tohome health care patients in the context of Korean long-term care insurance services. Methods: In phase 1, the initial item pool was created based on the concept analysis results using a literature review and in-depth interviews. Phase 2 evaluated the psychometric properties of the scale in the survey conducted in 2021 using a sample of 202 receiving longtermcare visiting nursing services. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used to examine the construct validity. An internal consistencywas examined using Cronbach’s α. Known group validity and criterion validity were assessed. Results: The EFA suggested five factors: therapeutic relationship, coordination of care, service availability, customized care plan, andconsistency in service provision. The internal consistency reliability of the continuity of care scale was satisfactory (Cronbach’s α=.96). Known-group validity was established by comparing the continuity of care scores for high utilizers of home-visiting nursing servicesand low utilizers of home-visiting nursing services. Criterion validity was confirmed through the correlation between the developedscale and the performance of the visiting nurse service scale. Conclusion: The developed scale was found to be reliable and relatively valid for measuring the patient’s perceived continuity of carewithin the Korean long-term care visiting nursing system.

Purpose: This study examined the impact of the depressive symptom severity on the treatment duration of patients undergoing physical therapy. Specifically, this study investigated whether variations in depressive symptoms were associated with differences in treatment participation and continuity, emphasizing the role of psychological factors in improving clinical outcomes. Methods: Thirty patients participated in this study. The depressive symptom severity was assessed using the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI), and the participants were categorized into three groups: normal, mild-to-moderate, and severe depression. Differences in the treatment duration across the three groups were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), with the level of statistical significance set to p<0.05. Post hoc analyses were conducted to identify the significant between-group differences. Results: The results revealed significant differences in the treatment duration among the three groups. In particular, significant differences were observed between the normal and mild-to-moderate groups, as well as between the mild-to-moderate and severe groups, suggesting that the treatment continuity does not necessarily follow a simple linear trend based solely on depressive symptom severity. Conclusion: These findings suggest that patients with higher depressive symptom levels do not inevitably exhibit shorter treatment durations when the appropriate psychological support and structured treatment management are provided. Therefore, incorporating psychological care into physical therapy may help maintain treatment adherence, minimize the risk of premature discontinuation, and ultimately enhance the long-term therapeutic outcomes across patients with varying levels of depressive symptoms.

최근 WLAN과 3G 이동통신의 결합 서비스와 관련하여 이종 네트워크의 연동에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 WLAN과 CDMA2000 이종 네트워크에서 MMS 서비스의 연속성을 제공하기 위해서 새로운 연동 방안을 제안한다. 기존의 표준 규격과 네트워크 구성 요소들을 재사용하며, loosely-coupled 접근 방식과 Mobile IP 접근 방식을 이용한다. 또한, CDMA2000에 제한적이었던 MMS 알림 서비스를 WLAN에서도 이용할 수 있도록 새로운 알림 서비스를 제시하며, WLAN과 CDMA2000 이종 네트워크를 이동하면서도 MMS 메시지들을 지속적으로 전송할 수 있는 새로운 핸드오버 절차들을 제시하고 시뮬레이션을 이용하여 성능을 분석한다.

Recently, the combination of WLAN and 3G wireless technologies will make MMS service more ubiquitous, bringing benefits to both service providers and their customers. To realize seamless MMS service over WLAN and CDMA2000 networks, we design novel seamless interworking architecture by reusing the existing standards and network elements at the same time. Based on the proposed seamless interworking architecture, we also present seamless notification architecture and seamless handover architecture that can't be possible within current MMS reference architecture. This paper will make a contribution for service providers to provide their customers with seamless MMS service over WLAN and CDMA2000 networks.

Purpose: This study examined sociodemographic, clinical, and symptom-related factors associated with current employment among cancer survivors and described sex-based differences in occupational continuity. Methods: This cross-sectional study used data from the 2019 and 2021 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The sample included cancer survivors aged 19 to 65 years who did not have multiple primary cancers or missing data (n=289). Employment status was categorized as employed or non-employed. Sociodemographic factors (age, sex, education, marital and household characteristics, household income, and private insurance), clinical factors (time since diagnosis, cancer type, current cancer status, and comorbidity), and symptom-related factors (pain, fatigue, depression, memory problems, and sleep difficulties) were evaluated using hierarchical logistic regression. Weighted descriptive analyses were performed to examine sex-based differences in occupational continuity.Results: Overall, 56.6% of participants were employed. In the final model, male sex was associated with higher odds of employment (odds ratio [OR], 4.69; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.21?9.94; p<.001), whereas monthly household income below 3 million Korean won was associated with lower odds of employment (OR, 0.41; 95% CI, 0.19?0.88; p<.05). Sleep difficulties were non-significantly associated with lower odds of employment (OR, 0.64; 95% CI, 0.41?1.00; p=.051). No clinical factor was significantly associated with employment. Male participants were more likely than female participants to retain their longest-held occupation (58.3% vs. 30.9%). Conclusion: Employment among cancer survivors was associated with sex and household income, and occupational continuity differed by sex. Although sleep difficulties were not statistically significant in the final model, sleep assessment and sex-sensitive vocational support may be useful components of survivorship nursing care.

본 연구는 한국과 일본의 ‘사업연속성계획’(BCP) 수립 촉진 및 관련 인증제에 대 한 인센티브 전략을 비교 분석하고, 한국 기업, 특히 중소기업을 대상으로 한 실효 성 있는 인센티브 전략을 제시하는 데 중점을 두었다. 문헌 분석을 통해 일본의 BCE 인증 시스템과 한국의 BCP 현황을 비교하고, 이를 바탕으로 효과적인 인센티 브 방안을 도출하고자 했다. 일본은 동일본 대지진 이후 중소기업을 위한 ‘사업계 속력강화계획’(BCE) 인증제를 도입하여, 저금리 융자, 세제 혜택, 보조금 우대 등 다양한 재정적 지원책을 통해 기업들의 자발적인 BCP 수립을 촉진하고 있다. 반면 에, 한국의 재해경감 우수기업 인증제는 상대적으로 미흡한 인센티브 제공으로 특 히 중소기업의 참여가 저조한 실정이다. 본 연구는 일본의 BCE 인증제를 벤치마킹하여 한국에도 ‘실효성 있는 인센티브 전략’을 도입할 필요성을 강조하였다. 또한, 저금리 융자, 보험료 할인, 세제 혜택 등의 재정적 지원 확대와 중소기업 맞춤형 교육 및 컨설팅 지원이 필요하며, 인증 절차의 간소화를 통해 중소기업의 BCP 인증 취득을 용이하게 해야 한다는 점을 제시했다. 본 연구는 제한된 자료와 기간으로 인해 결과를 전체 산업에 일반화하는 데 한계가 있을 수 있으며, 인센티브 전략이 기업의 재난 대응 능력에 미치는 영향 을 정량적으로 분석하지 못한 점이 제한점으로 남아 있다. 향후 연구에서는 이러한 제약을 해소하고, 산업별 맞춤형 인센티브 전략을 개발하여 한국의 재난 복원력과 기업의 지속 가능한 성장을 도모할 수 있는 정책 방안을 마련할 필요가 있다.

This study compares and analyzes incentive strategies for promoting Business Continuity Plans (BCP) and related certification systems in Korea and Japan, with a focus on deriving effective incentive strategies for Korean companies, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Through a literature review, the study examines Japan’s Business Continuity Enhancement (BCE) certification system in comparison with Korea’s current BCP status to identify actionable incentive measures. In response to the Great East Japan Earthquake, Japan introduced the BCE certification to encourage voluntary BCP adoption among SMEs, providing financial incentives such as low-interest loans, tax benefits, and subsidies. In contrast, Korea’s disaster reduction excellence certification system provides relatively limited incentives, resulting in low SMEs’ participation rates. The study emphasizes the need for Korea to benchmark Japan’s BCE certification by introducing practical incentive strategies, including expanded financial support through low-interest loans, insurance discounts, and tax benefits, as well as tailored education and consulting services for SMEs. Simplifying the certification process is also recommended to facilitate broader SME participation. Limitations of this study include restricted data and time scope, which may affect the generalizability of the findings. Additionally, a quantitative analysis of the impact of proposed incentives on companies’ disaster response capabilities was not conducted. Future research should address these limitations by developing industry-specific incentives that can enhance Korea’s disaster resilience and foster sustainable corporate growth.

이 연구는 국가적 위기 상황에서도 공직선거 관리의 연속성을 확보하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 한국 현대사 에서 중요한 세 가지 사례(한국전쟁 시 선거, 비상계엄 상황 시 선거, 감염병 팬데믹 시 선거)를 들어 분석하였다. 선거관리업무와 BCP가 정부구성과 기능유지에 필수적인 요소임을 알 수 있다. 문헌 분석과 사례 연구를 연구 방법으로 활용하여, 위기 상황에서의 선거관리 경험과 대응 방안을 살펴보았다. 주요 연구 결과로, 전쟁이나 계엄과 같은 국가 비상사태부터 감염병과 같은 재난 상황에 이르기까지 선거관리 업무의 연속성을 유지하기 위해서는 법적·제도적 보완과 사전 준비가 필수적임이 확인되었다. 본 연구는 법·제도적 정비(예: 비상 시 선거 연기 요건 규정 보완, 우편 및 전자투표 도입 검토), 선거관리위원회의 체계적인 연속성 관리체계 구축, 정보기술을 활용한 비대면 투표 및 시스템 백업 등 행정적·기술적 대안을 제시하였다. 이러한 정책적 시사점은 향후 유사한 위기 상황에서 공정한 선거를 보장하고 국민 신뢰를 확보하는 데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

This study aims to ensure the continuity of public election management during national crises. It analyzes three critical cases in modern Korean history: elections during the Korean War, under martial law, and amid a pandemic. Findings highlight that election management and Business Continuity Planning (BCP) are essential for sustaining government functions. Using literature review and case study methods, the research examines experiences and responses in crisis election management. Results show that legal and institutional preparedness is vital to maintaining electoral continuity in emergencies. Key recommendations include revising emergency election laws, exploring postal and electronic voting, and establishing a continuity framework within the National Election Commission. Administrative and technological measures-such as remote voting and system backups-are also proposed. These strategies aim to ensure fair elections and maintain public trust during future crises.

This study explores the nexus of discontinuities and continuities in the Korean judicial system between the traditional court system before the 1894 reform and the allegedly modern post-reform judicial system. Despite the 1894 reform’s obvious achievements such as centralization of judicial hierarchy, institutionalization of modern penal system, and separation of civil and criminal court, the 1894 reform did not succeed in making the break with the past that the reformers had purported to achieve. Rather, the post-reform judicial system still featured strong continuity with the traditional institutions and practices. This continuity of traditional legal system not only posed serious obstacle to the judicial reform undertaken by Korean themselves, but also gave rise to an expectation for the Japanese rule on the part of many Korean reform intellectuals after the protectorate treaty of 1905, paving the way to the emergence of colonial modernity in Korea.

This paper aims at tracing trans-pacific historical continuity, as it is demonstrated in the faith of second-generation Korean Christians. Second-generation Korean Christians are the children of Korean immigrants who went to the U.S.A., following the liberalization of the immigration laws in 1965 that removed the national origins quota system and ended the exclusion of Asians from immigration. About eighty percent of them are Protestants or Catholics, which corresponds with the Protestant or Catholic percentage of first generation Koreans. Spending their childhood and adolescence in Korean ethnic churches, second-generation Koreans acquire the evangelical religiosity of their parents which originated from Korea. Furthermore, being born or raised in the U.S.A., they also obtain American evangelical religiosity. Exploring the aforementioned socio-religious reality, this article claims that Korean Christianity, Korean ethnic churches and American evangelical Christianity are not very different from one another, and that, in fact, they are almost identical. While second-generation Korean Christians are socialized into the conservative Christianity of Korean ethnic churches brought from Korea, they identify with and are influenced by American evangelical Christianity. Thus, the faith of second-generation Koreans shows the trans-pacific continuity between Korea and America.

본 연구에서는 중소 제조기업을 대상으로 사업연속성계획(Business Continuity Planning; BCP)을 구축 하기 위한 개념모델을 제시한다. 이를 위해, 선행 연구와 국내외 BCP 구축 지침 및 사례를 분석하여 4개 그룹 29개의 중소 제조기업을 위한 BCP 개발방향을 도출하였다. 이후, 전문가 설문조사를 통해 중 요도-구축 용이성 평가를 수행한 후, 4분면 분석을 통해 도출된 개발방향에 대한 우선순위를 설정 하였다. 우선순위가 높은 개발방향을 6단계로 구성된 BCP 프레임워크에 적용하여 중소 제조기업의 BCP 구축을 위한 개념모델을 수립하고, 국내 기업의 재해경감활동계획 수립기준 및 표준을 바탕으로 프로세스, 정보시스템, 조직에 대한 구축방안을 정의하였다. 특히, 핵심 업무로의 집중, 절차의 간소화, 그리고 경영자 주도의 접근 방식을 강조하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 BCP 구축을 위한 개념모델을 이용한 다면, 중소 제조기업이 보다 효율적이고 실용적으로 BCP를 구축할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

We propose a conceptual model to establish a Business Continuity Planning (BCP) for small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises (SMEs). To achieve this, we analyzed previous research and domestic and international BCP guidelines, resulting in the identification of 29 BCP development directions for SMEs categorized into four groups. Subsequently, an importance-ease of implementation analysis was conducted through expert surveys, and priorities were set for the identified development directions using a quadrant analysis. The high-priority development directions were applied to a six-phased BCP framework to develop a conceptual model for BCP establishment in SMEs. Then implementation strategies for processes, information systems, and organizational structures were further defined on the basis of domestic standards and guidelines for disaster mitigation planning. Notably, the proposed model emphasizes a focus on core functions, simplification of procedures, and a management-led approach. The proposed model is expected to enable SMEs for developing BCPs more efficiently and practically.

The decade of the 1960s in Korea is normally regarded as a transitional period, but this transition has been consistently viewed in either economic or political terms. In this paper I examine the 1960s and the 1970s as a period of cultural transition―from a neo-Confucian emphasis on “high” art to a broader, more inclusive acceptance of “popular” forms of cultural expression. Although these two realms of cultural production are often viewed as fundamentally antithetical, I argue that there is actually significant continuity in terms of both artistic expression and cultural engagement. In particular, I look at the trajectories of Korean national literature and cinema and their areas of confluence. I examine the career of Kim Sŭng-ok, who in the 1960s was the preeminent literary voice of a new generation and who in the 1970s was the screenwriter for some of the most popular films of that era, and I show how Kim’s career changes track parallel changes in both literature and cinema. Artistically, Kim continued his literary expressions of a new sensibility in his screenplays, bringing to cinema a new infusion of seriousness and respectability. Culturally, Kim continued his explorations of the ways in which rapid changes in Korean politics and the booming economy led to miscommunication and chaos in society. By consistently exploring processes of national identity formation and re-formation, Kim’s 1960s literature can be seen as crucial instances of Korean national literature (minjok munhak). In the same manner, Kim’s 1970s screenplays can be seen as foundational moments in a Korean national cinema.

본 연구는 인수합병 과정에서 다양한 인수합병 전략이 구성원 인식 변화에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 인수합병의 성공여부는 종업원들의 업무만족도 및 조직몰입도에 달려있다. 기존의 연구들과 유사하게, 본 연구에서도 인수합병 과정에서 원활한 의사소통(communication)이 구성원들의 불확실성을 감소시키는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 고용 안정성은 인수합병 이후 조직 동일시(Organizational Identification)에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나, 기존 연구들과는 달리 본 연구에서 조직 연속성(Sense of Continuity)의 효과는 확인할 수 없었다. 이는 조직이 급변하는 상황에서 고용안정성이 연속성을 대체할 수 있으며, 고용안정성이 확보될 경우, 구성원들은 변화에 적극적으로 대처하며 새로운 조직과의 동일시가 용이해 질 수 있기 때문이다. 본 연구 결과는 인수합병 과정에서 연속성이 확보되지 못하더라도 고용 안정성이 보장된다면, 주요한 인적자원의 손실을 막을 수 있음을 시사하고 있다.

Merger and acquisition(M&A) brings significant changes in organizational life and positive employee outcome is critical for the success of M&A. Similar to previous research, we found that communication has a positive influence on reducing uncertainty. In addition, job security is also found to have a significant impact on post-merger organizational identification. However, contrary existing research, sense of continuity did not have any significant impact on organizational identification. One possible explanation may be that sense of continuity serves as a proxy measure for job security under organizational change, and when employees perceive high level of job security, they will more willingly cope with changes and identify with the new organization even if sense of continuity is missing. An important implication for managers is that offering job security may compensate for lack of continuity when merging organizations want to avoid the loss of human capital and expertise.
