This study investigated the relationships of the self-regulated learning strategies used in both science and English classes and motivation to academic performance of science-gifted high school students. Participants of this study were 144 freshmen of Korea Science Academy It was found out that the use of self-regulation learning strategies and motivation exerts differential influence on the academic performance of science-gifted students, depending on the subjects they study. Results showed that they used more vigorously in science class those self-regulated strategies which consist of cognition, metacognition, and resource management strategies than in English class. In addition, their motivation level in science class was significantly higher than that in English class. Self-regulated strategies did not explain any variance in physics GPA. Task value among the motivation variables accounted for 2 percent of variance in physics GPA. Metacognition and time and study environment variables explained 8 percent and 15 percent of variance in English GPA, respectively. Self-efficacy in motivation accounted for 30 percent of variance in English GPA, These results were discussed in the light of instruction for science-gifted high students.

This study aims to provide basic data for the development of teaching methods to improve the performance confidence of performing core basic nursing skills in nursing students while availing of online education owing to COVID-19. Data were collected from 146 students in the Department of Nursing at N University located in C city. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, difference, correlation analysis, and multiple regression by using SPSS 23.0 program.. The subjects' performance confidence of core basic nursing skills was dependent on self-directed learning readiness (r=.368, p<.001), intrinsic goal motivation (r=.232, p=.005), extrinsic goal motivation (r=.344, p<.001), task value (r=.237, p=<.001), control of learning beliefs (r=.262, p=<.001), and self-efficacy for learning and performance (r=.443), p<.001) with a significant positive correlation. The results indicate that the factors influencing the subjects' performance confidence of core basic nursing skills were the 4th grade (β=0.413, p<.001), extrinsic goal motivation (β=0.307, p<.001), and self-efficacy for learning and performance (β=0.316, p=.005), and the explanatory power was 35.8% (F=8.354, p<.001). The research results showed that it is necessary to develop and apply various online-centered teaching and learning methods to increase the extrinsic goal motivation and self-efficacy for learning and performance of nursing students to enhance their performance confidence of core basic nursing skills. This will serve as a basis for preparing effective online centered nursing education strategies to improve performance confidence of core basic nursing skills.

Recently, interest in online teaching·learning and evaluation tools has increased in the context of Covid-19. In order to use tools effectively, it is necessary to identify the structural influence and causal relationship between the learner's affective and cognitive variables. In this study, to identify a causal relationship between motivation and thinking while using online judge, research and competing model were established and model fit/path analysis were performed. It was found that there was a linear causal relationship from tool usage, self-efficacy, flow, logical thinking, to computational thinking. It was confirmed that 'self-efficacy → flow', or 'flow' had mediating effect on the path from tool usage to thinking, and tool usage was not exerted to thinking through 'flow → self-efficacy'. The causality of 'logical thinking → computational thinking' was identified on the path where tool usage affects thinking ability through learning motivation, but the causality of 'computational thinking → logical thinking' was not identified.

This study aimed to check the role of SNS upward comparison and SNS usage motivation in the effect of contingent self-esteem on inferiority feelings by verifying the link between each variable in young adults. Depending on passed studies, a study model for the relationship of each variable was founded and the moderated mediation effect was checked. We performed a survey on 400 young adults using SNS through an online survey, and finally, a total of 351 data were employed for analysis. The outcome of the analysis was as follows. First, contingent self-esteem, SNS upward comparison, SNS usage motivation, and inferiority feelings were all affirmed to reveal a positive correlation. Second, contingent self-esteem had an important impact on inferiority feelings, which was mediated by SNS upward comparison. Third, the relationship between SNS upward comparison and inferiority feelings was moderated by SNS usage motivation. Finally, SNS usage motivation moderated the indirect effect of contingent self-esteem on inferiority feelings via SNS upward comparison. Based on the results of this study, we presented the psychological and emotional implications that can experience the inferiority feelings in young adults.

This study looked at what factors lead to continuous participatory intention of online childrearing community. Trust, reciprocity and perceived security from the perspectives of community attributes and reputation motivation, information motivation, enjoyment motivation and self-monitoring from the users' perspectives were conceived as determinants that might have influences on continuous participatory intention of online childrearing community. It were also empirically tested whether they affect continuous participatory intention of online childrearing community. The moderating effect of self-monitoring was examined, too. In order to collect data, online questionnaires were conducted to women whose ages were 20-49 years old and joined online childrearing community. Their responses were analyzed with a regression analysis. The findings showed that trust, reciprocity and information motivation have influences on continuous participatory intention of online childrearing community. The moderating effect of self-monitoring between reciprocity and continuous participatory intention was also found.

초창기의 컴퓨터 교육에서 사용된 데이터의 대부분은 텍스트와 간단한 그래픽이 전부를 차지하고 있었다. 컴퓨터의 발전과 인터넷의 사용자의 증가는 점진적으로 교육에도 변화를 가져왔으며, 멀티미디어 환경과 교육의 접목을 통한 가상교육이 시도되었다. 기존의 HTML기반의 웹환경의 단점을 극복하고자 1998년에 발표된 SMIL 1.0은 멀티미디어 요소들간의 동기화를 목적으로 개발되었다. 기존의 멀티미디어 요소들에 시간과 이벤트간의 연결관계를 표현이 가능하도록 하여, 실행시에 각 요소들간의 시간과 이벤트의 작용에 따라 실행이 가능하도록 하였다. 하지만, 통신망의 보급과 활용의 증가로 인해 실시간처리의 필요성을 가진 멀티미디어 요소들도 증가를 가져왔다. SMIL은 현재 기존의 멀티미디어 요소들간의 동기화를 위주로 설계되어서 실시간 처리에 미흡한 점을 가지고 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서 이러한 SMIL을 확장함으로써 기존의 SMIL의 기능을 모두 가지고 있으면서, 각 실시간으로 실행되는 멀티미디어 요소들 동기화 가능하도록 하는 실시간 영상강의 시스템을 설계하였다.

The current study attempts to empirically identify a theoretical background that effectively explains Korean pop-culture consumption in the Asian Pacific region; particularly, in China. Specifically, this study investigates how globalism, proximity, and modernity, which have been suggested in literature as key theoretical backgrounds for the Korean wave, influence China's motivation to consume the Korean wave and its subsequent consumption of Korean TV programs (e.g., dramas, variety shows, etc.). The findings suggest that the motivation to consume the Korean wave is positively related to globalism and proximity. Modernity, however, is found to have a negative influence on the motivation to consume the Korean wave. That is, the more one holds international values, the more one perceives Korea as similar to China, and the more one holds traditional values, the more motivation one shows to consume the Korean wave. The study also finds that the motivation to consume the Korean wave has a significant impact on the consumption of Korean TV programs. In the revised model, the study suggests that proximity, followed by globalism, has the strongest positive relationship with motivation. Such a finding suggests that a proximity approach could serve as a better theoretical perspective to explain the phenomenon of the Korean wave in China. Regarding the relationships of the demographic/socio-economic variables and the motivation to consume the Korean wave, females, rather than males, the higher the family income one gains, and the lower education level one has had, the more motivation one will show to consume the Korean wave.

Background: Binaural beats frequencies, measured in Hertz (Hz), are applied to induce optimal brainwave states and activate mental and physical relaxation through brainwave entrainment. Therefore, an exploration of the interrelation between binaural beats, brain synchronization, and the tranquility of mind and body, including meditative brainwaves, is necessary. Purposes: This study aims to investigate the mechanisms of binaural beats and brainwave resonance, along with brain synchronicity, and how sound frequencies (Hz) relate to relaxation, meditative brainwaves, and overall mental and physical tranquility. Methods: Through a literature review of existing research and materials, this study examines: first, binaural beats and the Brain-Sync process; second, the induction of relaxation through resonance and brainwaves; third, the stabilization of brainwaves and entrainment phenomena with binaural beats and sound; fourth, the relationship between binaural beats and meditative music. Results: Binaural beats facilitate the synchronization of brainwaves through the Brain-Sync process, particularly activating relaxation-related brainwaves such as alpha (α), theta (θ), and delta (δ), thereby inducing a meditative state. This is based on the mechanism where brainwaves synchronize with specific frequency vibrations, leading to deep meditation or relaxation states. Thus, specific sound frequencies play a significant intermediary role in inducing a sustained and stable meditative brainwave state, beyond mere psychological and physiological relaxation responses. Conclusion: This study explores the characteristics of binaural beats through the interaction between brainwave resonance and synchronization, examining the role of sound frequency vibrations as a significant intervention method contributing to mental and physical comfort and brainwave stability. It suggests the need for systematic intermediary processes in the healthcare domain and various research areas to verify the short-term/long-term effects and the necessity for extensive research on meditative frequency sound interventions.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the determinants of employees' knowledge contribution to 'Easysam', the Defense Knowledge Sharing System(DKSS), and provide managers and system designers with implications for enhancing the usage of the DKSS. Although the system seems to be helpful for employees to conduct their tasks by sharing and applying knowledge from the system, use of the system is confined to restricted employees and little empirical, systematic research has been done for this area. Therefore, using the motivation opportunity ability theory of behavior, this study hypothesizes that motivation factors(enjoy helping, reward confirmation), opportunity factor(system accessibility), and ability factor(self-rated expertise, tenure in the field) increase the level of employees' knowledge contribution to the DKSS. This research also includes hypotheses which address the effect of system use voluntariness, a moderator, on the relationship between predictors described above and knowledge provision. Survey results show that the effect of enjoy helping, reward confirmation, self-rated expertise and system accessibility is significant on employees knowledge provision. However, tenure in the field has no influence on its contribution of knowledge to the system. Theoretical and practical implications are provided.
