With the advent of the metaverse era, understanding individuals who engage in metaverse activities has become an important task for businesses and marketing practitioners. This study aimed to compare the socio-demographic and personality factors of metaverse non-users and users, and to ascertain the impact of these individual characteristics on use of metaverse. Cross-sectional data from 9,686 respondents aged 13 and above that extracted from the 2022 Korean Media Panel Survey were analyzed, revealing significant differences between metaverse non-users and users in terms of gender, age, education level, income level, marital status, employment status, openness to experience, extraversion, and conscientiousness. Gender, age, openness to experience, and neuroticism influenced the possibility of metaverse use. Age, education level, and openness to experience were found to impact the extent of metaverse use. These findings are expected to serve as foundational insights for businesses and marketing practitioners aiming to formulate strategies in utilizing the metaverse.

The purpose of this paper is to examine some effects of four menu types: icon menu, icontext menu, pulldown menu, and bar selection menu. Each have been mainly used with hypermedia instruction, learners' metacognition on their errors, menu search time, and scholastic achievements. A further purpose of this paper is suggest some strategies for enabling each learner to select menus more efficiently in order to enhance the learner's own learning effectiveness in hypermedia instruction. There were 100 college students selected as subjects for This study. They had never had experience in Hanoi hypermedia instruction. They were required to use four menu types at random in this experiement. The results of this study are as follows. The menu types had a significant effect on the low metacognition regulation group. Icontext menu types, especially, had a significant effect on achievements. In constrast to this, the menu types did not have any significant effect on the high metacognition regulation group.

The purpose of this paper is to examine some effects of four menu types: icon menu, context menu, pulldown menu, and bar selection menu. In order to find whether there are some effects of menu types or learning stages (the first, intermediate and the last stage) on skill-based errors, each of the menus has been studied in relation to hyperemia instruction, menu search time, scholastic a chievements and learners' metacognitionon their errors. A further purpose of this paper is to suggest some strategies for enabling learner to select menus more efficiently in order to enhance the learner's own learning effectiveness in hypere mia instruction.The results of this study are as follows. The menu types had a significant effect on the low metacognition regulation group. The context menu types had a significant effect on achievements. In contrast, it was also noticed he the menu types did not have any significant effect on the high metacognition regulation group. The bar-selection menu type and the icon menu type had a relatively significant effect on skill-based errors in the first stage of learning.

In recent times, with the development of virtual convergence technologies, the market for the Metaverse, a digitally virtual space that combines virtuality and reality, is experiencing significant growth. These Metaverses are realizing new value in both reality and virtual spaces through the development of diverse services and content. However, existing research on the Metaverse mostly revolves around its conceptualization and categorization, with limited exploration of intentions to use the Metaverse. Consequently, this study examined the impact of Metaverse service characteristic factors on trust and intention to use within the Metaverse. The results of this study are as follows. First, among the service characteristic factors of the Metaverse, presence, interactivity, and playfulness were found to have a positive impact on Metaverse trust. On the other hand, informativeness was found not to have a significant influence on trust in the Metaverse. Second, Metaverse trust was found to have a positive impact on intention to use the Metaverse. Based on the research results above, this study aims to propose effective communication strategies for activating the Metaverse and developing services within the Metaverse platform.

Using Babinet's principle and generalized sheet transition conditions(GSTCs), an analysis method for metascreens is proposed. First, the relation of a complementary screen between a metafilm and metascreen with the same dimensions was confirmed using Babinet's principle. These properties were verified by comparing the reflection coefficient of the patch and the transmission coefficient of the mesh. The patch and mesh are the basic structures of metafilms and metascreens, respectively. Based on these findings, it is also confirmed that the reflection coefficient of the patch surface calculated by GSTCs has the same value as the transmission coefficient of the mesh surface. It is expected that the proposed analysis methods can be applied to the magnitude, phase, and polarization of electromagnetic waves in the various unit structures of a given metasurface.

As the concept of metaverse has received great attention, interest in metaverse related to landscape architecture is also increasing. The aim of this research is to understand the potential and tasks of applying metaverse in the field of landscape architecture by analyzing the user experience of a metaverse platform. The object of the research is Meta-Everland built in the Roblox platform, which has the most users among landscape architectural metaverses in Korea. NPS of 30 users who have been to Everalnd was investigated after using Meta-Everland with interviews. NPS before the metaverse experience was -16 and NPS after the experience was -24. This result means that the promotion level was lowered after the experience of the metaverse. There were three causes of lowered NPS: lack of users, low-quality graphics and interface, and lack of content. The factor of lack of users was the result of the other two problems. The factor of low technical quality is hard to be improved in a short period of time. Therefore, the main task to improve the metaverse is developing better metaverse content related to landscape architecture. It is more appropriate to develop metaverse-specific content rather than improve reality issues. Applying AR and VR devices, enhancing communication function, and developing potential as a simulation device are needed to be considered.

Metamaterials operating in the terahertz frequency range show promising potential for use in highly sensitive microbial sensors that are capable of effectively detecting microorganisms in the ambient environment. We were able to detect extremely small numbers of microorganisms by measuring the differential transmission spectra (DTS) of the metamaterial resonances. This was possible because their sizes are on the same scale as the microgaps of the terahertz metamaterials. DTS depend critically on the number of microorganisms placed in the gap area, and their dielectric constant. In addition, these metamaterial microbial sensors are reusable, because the microorganisms can be completely removed by fungicide solution. Finite-difference time-domain simulations successfully reproduce our experimental data.
