From the point of view of Uses and Gratification Theory intentions for using webtoon and human sociocultural behavior intention are already predicted but with the usefulness of Theory of Planned Behavior Integrated Model this study extended the explanation power of prediction about webtoon related behavioral intention. Results found 5 motivational factors for webtoon usage i.e. 'seeking information', 'entertainment and access availability', 'webtoon genre characteristics', 'influence from a friend or acquaintance', and 'escapism and tension release'. Among them the ones that influenced the intention for viewing movies, based on webtoon, were found to be 'webtoon genre characteristics', 'escapism and tension release' and the 3 variables from Theory of Planned Behavior. 'Seeking information', 'entertainment and access availability', 'webtoon genre characteristics', and all the 3 variables from Theory of Planned Behavior were found to influence the intention for switching to paid webtoon content.

1990년대 이후 인터넷을 비롯한 각종 기술의 발달로 TV 홈쇼핑, 인터넷 쇼핑, 카탈로그 쇼핑, 모바일 쇼핑 등과 같은 새로운 소매업태가 등장함에 따라 각기 다른 소매업태, 즉 각기 다른 쇼핑 환경들이 어떻게 소비자의 가치지각에 영향을 미치는 가에 대한 연구가 필요성이 제기되었다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 인지 심리학의 한 이론인 인지 연속성 이론의 동태적 과업시스템을 소비자의 쇼핑 행동에 적용하였다. 즉 소비자의 쇼핑 경험을 소비자와 쇼핑 환경이 상호작용하는 동태적 과업으로 간주하였으며 이에 따른 가치지각을 연구하고자 한 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 본 연구에서는 동태적 쇼핑 경험의 구성요소로서 내ㆍ외면적 특성인 소비자의 쇼핑성향과 쇼핑 환경을 정의하였으며 소비자의 경험가치에 있어서는 Holbrook의 경험가치 척도를 적용하여 소비자의 동태적 쇼핑경험이 쇼핑가치지각에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 가를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 적용한 경험가치척도는 경제적 가치, 효율성, 내면적 즐거움, 현실도피성과 같은 추구 가치와, 시각적 매력, 엔터테인먼트 가치, 서비스 우수성과 같은 수동적 가치로 구분되며 실증분석 결과 이러한 경험가치들은 각각 동태적 쇼핑 경험의 내ㆍ외면적 특성에 따라 서로 다른 영향을 받는 것이 검증되었다.

Phantasy is the psychic reality in which drive, sadism and anxiety are represented and constructed. It is one of important metapsychological concepts of the psychoanalysis which explains the formations of symptoms, internal psychic structure, and the mutual relationship between internal subjective world of man and external world. Through the understanding of phantasy we can approach the man's unconsciousness and fathom the structure of the subject itself. Especially S. Freud and M. Klein's psychoanalysis give us the deep insight into the phantasy, on the basis of which we can investigate the cause and structure of the pathological phenomena of the man.

This study is conducted to analyse the process and the pattern of motivation for musical expression in clinical music therapy for the adults in the mental health center. The participant were 8 adults purposive sampling who had more than one year music therapy experience in the mental health center and their age ranged from 27 to 53. A major category derived and analysed from the grounded theory method by Strauss and Corbin. The qualitative analysis indicated that motivation for musical expression in music therapy, which was the central phenomenon in this study, was determined by the music therapist and songs used in the sessions. The central phenomenon was caused by the therapist's friendly attitude, high musical capacity, the familarity of the selected songs and the significancy of the lyrics of selected songs. The levels of reliability about the therapist's personality and musical ability as a professional music therapist and the positive arousal of the songs used in sessions affected as the contextual condition. Spontaneous musical expression in music therapy brought the escape from reality, release of stress and sharing by the intervening condition 'empathy' and this resulted in mood regulation, the instillation of hope and group cohesion. It has been found that there were three types of motivation in music therapy: intrinsic motivation, relationship dependent extrinsic motivation and evasive motivation.
