본 논문에서는 루브르박물관, 미국자연사박물관, 대영박물관, 아시아문명박물관, 국립미술관, 빌바오 구겐하임스마트폰 애플리케이션에 대한 사용자 평가를 통해 정보서비스에 대한 만족도를 비교하고, 사용성과 기능적 특성간의 상관관계를 검증했다. 사용자 평가에 대한 종합결과와 정보서비스의 총점을 비교한 결과, 빌바오 구겐하임, 미국자연사박물관, 루브르박물관에 대한 만족도가 높게 평가되었다. 또한 사용성은 개인화적 특성, 비간섭적 특성, 동기부여, UX/UI, 연결완전성이 내재한 관람모형, 정보서비스 등 모든 요인과 유의미한 상관관계에 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 도출된 하나의 중요한 시사점은 박물관 스마트 폰 애플리케이션에 대한 만족도는 하드웨어나 기술의 적용보다는 콘텐츠와 관람객 사이에서 발생하는 인터랙션에 따라 좌우된다는 것이다.

This research validates the correlation between usability and functional attributes whilst comparing the degree of satisfaction of information framework used in museum mobile apps via usability evaluation in pre-visit setting. In cases of Bilbao Guggenheim and American Natural History Museum apps, the degree of satisfaction measured for information service, functional attributes, motivation for actual museum visit and during-visit usability of the apps were all highly evaluated. Such evaluation data indicates the increased usability of apps when mobile applications take user-friendly design that intuitively reflect users' interests and needs. After thorough analysis of correlation between usability and fictional attributes, data pointed to more meaning relationships existed in non-intrusiveness and personalization than other functional attributes. In conclusion, we were able to acknowledge the usability of museum mobile apps depends upon the interaction between content and functional attributes rather than entertainment factor and technology.

This is a pilot study of multifaceted longitudinal research project to explore educational experiences of students with multicultural family backgrounds in Korea. Especially for this pilot study, I selected three foreign-born immigrant youths and tried to explore how these youths describe constraints of their learning experience in different culture. The data for this study were mainly collected through qualitative research methods. For a better understanding of the research participants' perceptions in this study, narrative inquiry and series of semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted for a period of four months which corresponds to one semester of school system in Korea. As a result, this study found that there is an urgent need to establish a systemic and developmentaly appropriate language education programs that ensure educating the language to the foreign-born immigrant youths because their academic achievement, interpersonal relationships, and future depend greatly on the fluency of Korean language. It was also found that it is necessary to take appropriate educational actions in supporting alternative schools where the foreign-born immigrant youths can fully and seriously considered as a whole person. Although this study has some limitations in examining every single aspect of the current state of education of students with multicultural backgrounds in Korea, it provides deep insight into some of their initial educational experiences and proposes several ways to improve these educational programs for them.

The purpose of this research is to critically analysis the applying trend of the successful aging research on the baby boomers Generation. Research method is qualitative content analysis and this study was analyzed by concepts, factors, heterogeneity and variety of generation. The results of the analysis on 124 domestic articles on the journals on the successful aging from 2000 to 2016 are as follows: most of concepts in researches are about economic problems. In a research model, social environmental factors are barely considered. Heterogeneity and a few studies showed identities and varieties of generation. Based on these results, several suggestions are presented; First, consideration about the concepts of successful aging On a broad range is required. Secondly, concepts and influence factors should be clearly identified. Third, factors related to life itself in aging and macro social environment than factors of individual unit focused on economic value should be used. In addition, new age-old cultual value should be discussed to understand the Inherent traits of baby boomers. Lastly, studies to discuss varieties which are caused by age and gender of the baby boomers are needs to proceed.

This study investigated the harmonic preference of children and adolescents depending on age and musical training. A total of 684 primary and secondary school students participated in this study. For this study, a four-measure melody was composed and constructed in four levels of harmonic complexity, determined by the rate of nonharmonic notes used and immediacy of harmonic resolution. Participants rated the degree of their perceived complexity and their preferences after listening to each musical stimulus. Ratings from the participants were analyzed in terms of the effect of age and the length of musical training. The results showed that younger students demonstrated little to no change in their preference regardless of the complexity level. Middle and high school students showed significantly decreased preference with increased harmonic complexity. High school students with more musical instrument training perceived changes in harmonic complexity more sensitively and showd higher level of optimal complexity. Younger students was affected by musical training relatively less than older students. This study presents the baseline data to be considered when determining the appropriate level of harmonic complexity for music appreciation of young population.
