Classic cultivation theory and research has been noted for its failure to capture subtle variation in effects by genre and to consider tangible and practical dependent variables. Redressing these limitations, this study aimed at extending cultivation theory frame to incorporating fatalistic attitudes and reality television viewing, especially with the mediator of perceived realism. We first replicated the original cultivation effect by showing the significant effect of overall TV viewing. Even controlling for overall TV viewing, reality-based program use showed positive association with fatalistic beliefs; furthermore, the effect remained significant, additionally controlling for news(fact) use and drama(fiction) use. In a nutshell, the cultivation effect of reality-based TV program on fatalistic beliefs turns out quite stable even after controlling other competing genres.

While same-sex marriage is officially legal in 28 countries, widespread discrimination continues against people in the LGBTQ community in Confucian Asian countries. This study examines how media exposure affects attitudes towards gay men using the cultivation theory in China, where LGBTQ issues are still censored in media. Moreover, this study looks into the immediate effect of watching gay content on attitudes towards a friend's coming out. Based on the survey of 236 young adults aged 18-22, the study results showed that heavy viewers of gay content and female had a more favorable attitude towards gay men. Furthermore, while the participants favored non-gay content, those who viewed gay content were more supportive of a friend's coming out than those who watched non-gay content. The findings indicated the cultivation effect on attitude towards same-sex relationships in a Confucian Asian country that can be used to foster a more inclusive society.

Culture and arts education has various effects on the ego resilience of adolescents, so school culture arts education and social culture arts education use teaching and learning methods appropriate to the situation of adolescents.

Therefore, it is necessary to prepare a plan to provide opportunities for career exploration as a more practical program for adolescence to understand themselves and develop themselves. In addition, Culture and arts education should be conducted with convergence research that enables youths to maintain good relationships with others, have high self-confidence, and play a role in a wide range of stable and mature lives.

정부가 고령화, 인구감소, 경기침체의 대안으로 새로운 일자리 창출에 관심을 집중한지 이미 오래다. 오랜 취업난과 수명 증가로 인해 창업은 이제 선택이 아닌 필수가 되었다. 정책적으로 직업으로서 창업가가 대우받는 시대가 된 것이다. 하지만, 아직도 국민 의식 저변에는 창업에 대한 불안과 두려움이 깔려있다. 이러한 인식 제고를 위해 다양한 교육과 정책들이 끊임없이 나오고 있지만, 여전히 창업에 대해서는 망설이게 되는 부분이 크다. 이러한 창업에 대한 두려움과 어려움을 극복할 수 있는 가장 확실한 방법은 경험해 보는 것인데, 직접 경험하는 것 외에도 문화적으로 다양한 창업경험을 접할 수 있다면 막연한 창업에 대한 불안감과 두려움을 조금이나마 해소할 수 있지 않을까? 문화계발효과이론을 응용하여 드라마를 중심으로 연구해 보고자 한다. 본 연구는 드라마 선호도가 사업의지에 미치는 영향에 관한 것으로, 그 동안 많이 연구되어 온 기업가정신과, 사업동기, 경험을 중심으로 진행하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기업가정신과 사업동기가 사업의지에 미치는 영향을 재확인하면서, 창업에 대한 직·간접 경험이 실제 창업의지에 영향을 미치는지 검증하고, 거기에 더해 매스미디어의 하나인 드라마 선호도가 기업가정신과 사업동기, 경험에 조절효가가 있는지를 검증하고자 한다. 정부의 창업지원정책이 홍수처럼 쏟아지는 지금도 개인의 창업과 폐업은 꾸준히 수치를 늘려가고 있다. 과연 기존 정부의 창업지원정책만으로 계속 현 상황을 이어가야 할지, 아니면 창업지원과 더불어 사회 전반에 걸친 문화적 지원도 뒷받침된다면 실제 창업에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 사업의지를 보다 더 확실하게 키울 수 있으리라 생각된다.

This paper aims to examine systematically how audiences' exposure to crime news influences their multicultural acceptability. In particular, the analysis has focused on how the variance in the effects of contacts with crime news on foreigners takes place, according to the types of media and communication favored among the audiences. Also, with perceived risk toward crime as a mediating variable, this research scrutinizes the way crime news on foreigners comes to influence multicultural acceptability among the audiences. While various news sources and communication channels are influential in strengthening the perceived possibility of crime on the individual level, the results show, television seems to be particularly more effective with regards to the perceived prevalence of crime on the social level (RQ 1). Also, while contacts with crime news through 'dialogic' media rarely influence multicultural acceptability significantly, 'discursive' media and face-to-face contacts have negative impacts on the multicultural acceptability (RQ 2). Consequently, perceived risk on the social level seems to play the role of full mediation in the process where audiences' contact with crime news through discursive media influences their multicultural acceptability (RQ 3). Based on these findings, both theoretical and practical implications were discussed.

This study focused on the relationship between elderly's participation in lifelong education(participation availability, participating fields) and ego integrity. To verify the correlation of two variables, mediating model structured by life satisfaction was used. The data was Seoul Welfare Panel Data made by Seoul Welfare Foundation in 2010 and the total subject was 1,862 elderly aged over 60. When it comes to research methods, structured equation analysis for verifying the mediating effect was practiced. The findings are as follows: First, life satisfaction did function as partial mediator on relationship between elderly's participation in lifelong education and ego integrity. Second, elderly's life satisfaction increased as participating in field of language, not in field of culture and art. Ego integrity of elderly was increased as participating in field of culture and art, not in field of self-improvement and hobby. This study indicates theoretical and practical interventions to promote elderly's lifelong education based on the conclusion elderly's lifelong education participation in the aging society has positive effects on life satisfaction and ego integrity are meaningful for successful aging.
