Kim, Younhee. 2018. “Private Speech and Mutual Engagement in Preschoolers Playtime Interaction: Talk and Embodiment”. The Sociolinguistic Journal of Korea 26(2), 119~165. Preschoolers playtime interaction presents a unique context where private speech/self-talk and mutual conversation are co-present as well as within and out-of-(pretend play) frame talk. Preliminary observation of the data from the larger project revealed an overall pattern where the two children would play together and soon one child or both of them wander off to his/her own private speech/play mode, and then mutual engagement is achieved again. The current study examines this phenomenon from a conversation analytic perspective by showing what types of sequential resources are employed by the children to manage the transition. The resources include making an announcement, a noticing comment about the shared environment, repetition, code-switching, and embodied resources such as gaze, postural orientation, and spatial positioning in the play space (Kendon 1990). The transition from mutual conversation to private speech often accompanies transition from reality to pretend play talk, though not exclusively so. Making a meta-pretend play comment and making a reference to the theme of the joint play also served as an effective way to achieve re-engagement. Based on detailed interactional analysis, the study suggests that the playtime interaction of preschoolers affords more self-oriented speech (self-repair, private speech) and is characterized by rather loosened expectation for responsivity while “playing together” takes close orientation to the other child s behavior as they co-ordinate moments of mutual engagement and separate play throughout their co-presence.

Fisetin-Mediated Perturbations of Membrane Permeability and Intracellular pH in Candida albicans

( Younhee Kim ) 한국미생물생명공학회 2024 Journal of microbiology and biotechnology Vol.34 No.4

The antifungal activity of fisetin against Candida albicans is explored, elucidating a mechanism centered on membrane permeabilization and ensuing disruption of pH homeostasis. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of fisetin, indicative of its interaction with the fungal membrane, increases in the presence of ergosterol. Hoechst 33342 and propidium-iodide staining reveal substantial propidium-iodide accumulation in fisetin-treated C. albicans cells at their MIC, with crystal violet uptake assays confirming fisetin-induced membrane permeabilization. Leakage analysis demonstrates a significant release of DNA and proteins in fisetin-treated cells compared to controls, underscoring the antifungal effect through membrane disruption. Green fluorescence, evident in both the cytoplasm and vacuoles of fisetin-treated cells under BCECF, AM staining, stands in contrast to controls where only acidic vacuoles exhibit staining. Ratiometric pH measurements using BCECF, AM reveal a noteworthy reduction in intracellular pH in fisetin-treated cells, emphasizing its impact on pH homeostasis. DiBAC₄(3) uptake assays demonstrate membrane hyperpolarization in fisetintreated cells, suggesting potential disruptions in ion flux and cellular homeostasis. These results provide comprehensive insights into the antifungal mechanisms of fisetin, positioning it as a promising therapeutic agent against Candida infections.

The Syntheses of p-Acylcalix[4]arenes

Kim, Younhee No, Kwanghyun 숙명여자대학교 자연과학연구소 1989 자연과학논문집 Vol.- No.1

Starting with readily available p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene 3 tert-butyl groups are removed by AlCl₃-catalyzed de-alkylation reaction, and the calix[4]arene 4 formed is converted into the tetraacyl esters. These compounds undergo Fries rearrangement to yield p-acylcalix[4]arenes. p-Acetyl, p-propionyl, p-butyryl, and p-benzoylcalix[4]arene 10, 11, 12 and 14 are synthesized in 70-80% yields by treatment of the corresponding esters 5, 6. 7 and 9 with AlCl₃ in nitrobenzene. When the tetraisobutyryl ester 8 was treated with the same condition, only two isobutyryl groups were rearranged to the para-positions of calix[4]arene, and remaining two groups were simply cleaved.

국내 거주 외국인의 재난안전 취약성에 관한 연구 : 정보요구 사항에 대한 심층인터뷰 내용을 중심으로

Younhee Kim,Hyeon-Suk Lyu 위기관리 이론과 실천 2015 Crisisonomy Vol.11 No.3

국내 거주 외국인의 수는 2014년 현재 이미 150만 명을 넘어섰다. 국내 거주 외국인의 정착 및 생활환경 개선을 위한 각종 정책이 시행되고 있지만, 국내 거주 외국인 대상 재난안전에 관련된 연구는 거의 없다. 본 논문은 국내 거주 외국인을 대상으로 심층인터뷰를 실시하여, 한국에서 거주하는 동안 겪었던 재난 경험, 재난 및 안전사고 대비를 위해 필요한 정보유형, 그리고 관련 정보를 제공받고자 하는 방식에 대해 심층인터뷰를 실시하였다. 이를 위해 우선 선행연구를 참조하여 국내 거주 외국인의 범위를 설정하고, 면접 대상자를 선정하여 심층인터뷰 방법을 통해 자료를 수집하였다. 이후 수집된 자료를 토대로 네 가지 영역에 걸쳐 핵심주제를 도출하고, 관련된 이슈와 쟁점을 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 향후 국내 거주 외국인 대상 재난안전정보 정책 및 콘텐츠 개발, 그리고 서비스 제공방안 마련에 도움이 될 뿐만 아니라 해당 분야 후속연구를 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이라 기대한다. Recently South Korea has experienced a number of catastrophic disasters. These ever-increasing disaster threats reflect not only a lack of government disaster capacity but also it reveals the vulnerability of certain groups of the South Korean populations whose demographic or socioeconomic characteristics may place them at greater risk of harm before, during, and after a disaster. These groups are often called ‘disaster vulnerable groups’. The total number of foreign residents in South Korea has reached over 1.5 million and is rapidly increasing. However, due to the language barrier and socio-cultural unfamiliarity, these foreigners are also regarded as a disaster vulnerable group, yet, the Korean disaster and safety policies and considerations for foreign immigrant families and migrant workers have just begun to be developed. As a result, they seem to be by and large excluded from the disaster and safety information provision and other disaster prevention education and training activities altogether. The purpose of this study is to explore what kind of disaster and safety information these foreign settlers would require and in which ways and channels they prefer to access it. It then further explores to what extent they are willing to participate in education and training for disaster prevention and safety prevention activities often organized and initiated by the central and local governments. For these purposes, this study adopts an intensive interview method. Based upon the findings, the study identifies the key problems and policy issues according to four themes. These findings can be used as basic resources to inform future government disaster and safety policies for foreign immigrant families and migrant workers. Additionally, it contributes to the nascent academic literature of migrant populations and disaster management.

Kim, Changhwan,Kim, Younhee,Yang, Dong-Wook,Rhee, Chin Kook,Kim, Sung Kyoung,Hwang, Yong-Il,Park, Yong Bum,Lee, Young Mok,Jin, Seonglim,Park, Jinkyeong,Hahm, Cho-Rom,Park, Chang-Han,Park, So Yeon,Jung The Korean Academy of Tuberculosis and Respiratory 2019 Tuberculosis and Respiratory Diseases Vol.82 No.1

Background: Understanding the burden of disease is important to establish cost-effective treatment strategies and to allocate healthcare resources appropriately. However, little reliable information is available regarding the overall economic burden imposed by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Korea. Methods: This study is a multicenter observational research on the COPD burden in Korea. Total COPD costs were comprised of three categories: direct medical, direct non-medical, and indirect costs. For direct medical costs, institutional investigation was performed at 13 medical facilities mainly based on the claims data. For direct non-medical and indirect costs, site-based surveys were administered to the COPD patients during routine visits. Total costs were estimated using the COPD population defined in the recent report. Results: The estimated total costs were approximately 1,245 million US dollar (1,408 billion Korean won). Direct medical costs comprised approximately 20% of the total estimated costs. Of these, formal medical costs held more than 80%. As direct non-medical costs, nursing costs made up the largest percentage (39%) of the total estimated costs. Costs for COPD-related loss of productivity formed four fifths of indirect costs, and accounted for up to 33% of the total costs. Conclusion: This study shows for the first time the direct and indirect costs of COPD in Korea. The total costs were enormous, and the costs of nursing and lost productivity comprised approximately 70% of total costs. The results provide insight for an effective allocation of healthcare resources and to inform establishment of strategies to reduce national burden of COPD.

Improving Korea’s Societal Security by Preparing for Unforeseen Disasters : Focused on the Horizontal Collaboration Approach

Younhee Kim,Hakkyong Kim 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of Security and Its Applicat Vol.10 No.3

Recently, unforeseen disasters have occurred, such as the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan and the tragic Sewol ferry incident in Korea. These unforeseen disasters challenged national emergency management capacities in many ways. We are living in a very complex and ever-changing society, and so, improving social security against these disasters is critically important. This paper discusses changes to emergency management to bring contemporary response standards into the aging system. Particular focus is on Korea’s emergency management systems and preparing for the unforeseen events in Korea. Finally, this paper suggests the horizontal collaboration approach at the local level, and further suggests three practical ways of horizontal collaboration to promote effective and efficient response against unforeseen disasters in Korea.
