This study has its purpose on improving mathematic education by analyzing the effects of the teaching and learning process which adopted 'FOCUS Problem Solving Steps' on student's mathematical problem solving ability and their mathematical attitude. The result is as follows. First, activities through FOCUS Problem Solving Steps showed positive effect on students' problem solving ability. Second, among mathematical attitudes, mathematical curiosity, reflection and value are proved to have statistically meaningful effect and from the result that analyzed changes of subject students, we could suppose that all 6 elements of mathematical attitude had positive effect. Third, by solving questions through FOCUS steps, students felt satisfaction when they success by themselves. If projects which adopted FOCUS Problem Solving Steps take effect continuously by happiness from the process of reviewing and reflecting their own fallacy and solving that, we might expect meaningful effect on students' problem solving ability. Through this study, FOCUS Problem Solving Steps had positive effect not only on students' mathematical problem solving ability but also on formation of mathematical attitude. As a result, it implies that FOCUS Problem Solving Steps need to be applied to other grades and fields and then studied more.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Vietnamese consumers' perception of Korean Wave brand on consumer attitude toward Korean products and purchase intention. Based on the existing research, the authors tried to consider two sub-concepts of globalness and localness in perceived Korean Wave brands. In addition, as surveyed in Vietnam research institutes and previous researches, Korean cosmetics were selected as representative Korean products in view of the fact that Korean cosmetics best reflect Korea and Korean Wave. To test hypotheses, the on-line survey was conducted to the Vietnamese consumers and total of 212 questionnaires were returned as valid sample. Research findings suggest that the globalness and localness of Korean Wave brand that Vietnamese consumers perceive have a positive effect on attitude toward Korean products. In addition, the favorable attitude toward these products has a positive effect on the intention to purchase the Korean products.

In order to examine the effects of self-congruity on functional congruity, brand attitude and behavioral intention in name-brand coffee shops, this study attempted to examine the self-congruity in two types which are nonsocial-type SC and social-type SC. The results showed that self-congruity had positive significant effects on functional congruity and nonsocial-type SC influenced to functional congruity more than social-type SC. Also, these two types of self-congruity didn't have direct significant effects on brand attitude. But it had significant effects on brand attitude through the functional congruity. Finally, brand attitude positively impacted on behavioral intention. These findings provide managers in name-brand coffee shops with strategies for implementing more effective brand image building as well as focusing on satisfying customer's functional congruity.

The purpose of the research is to propose ways to activate package tours through active promotion by verifying the motives and constraints pursued by customers of package tours, highlighting the advantages of content development and package tours that are revived in their needs. This study verified empirical analysis using SPSS 25.0 for 481 adults aged 19 or older who experienced package tours. The results of the research analysis are as follows. First, the daily escape, external activities, and service appeal of the tourist motivation were all verified with a positive impact on attitude. Second, it was found that the inherent constraints of tourism constraints had a negative effect on the relationship with attitudes, but the structural constraints were not significantly affected. Third, attitudes have shown to have a positive effect on satisfaction. Based on these results, I have described what factors tourists feel important when participating in package tour products, and hope that The factors will be useful in exploring the development of customized products required by tourists. It will need to be expanded to realistic comparative studies needed to revitalize package tours in the future.

They were confirmed as a homogeneous group at the significance level of 0.05 during a pre-test. The findings are as follows. First, math class with clip-type contents had positive influence on the academic achievement. Second, math class with clip-type contents had positive influence on the attitude towards learning. Furthermore, proper clip-type contents for class boost their understanding and enhance their mathematical thinking with multiple views. It led to their self-confidence in learning math, developing a positive attitude towards math. The benefits of the present research can be summarized as follows. First, the math class with clip-type contents benefited both teachers and students. For teachers, it helped them boost the quality of their teaching.

This research examines the effects of perceived design personality on consumer responses such as attitude toward products and purchase intention. Furthermore, the study analyzes if the design typicality moderates the effects of design personality on consumer responses. The research results found that when consumers are exposed to a typical design, they are more likely to perceive sincerity and ruggedness at a higher level. On the other hand, consumers tend to perceive a higher level of excitement and sophistication, as they are exposed to the atypical design. Besides, competence and ruggedness have positive effects on buying intention in the case of a typical design, while sincerity, excitement, and sophistication have positive impacts on buying intention in the case of an atypical design. Lastly, competence and ruggedness are found to have positive impacts on design attitude more in the typical design than in the atypical design, whereas sophistication showed positive impacts on design attitude more in the atypical design than in the typical design. Additionally, competence has more influence on product buying intention in the typical design and excitement has more effect on it in the atypical design.
