This study aims to investigate how the social capital of middle school students is influenced by their grades, attitudes, and school interests, which are defined as school adjustment flexibility, and how they affect the social capital of middle school students. This study aims to provide a basis for policy discussions on how to shape the social capital of adolescents. The results of the analysis show that school adjustment flexibility has an impact on each factor of social capital. Trust is positively related to school attitudes, and norms are positively related to school compliance and school interest. Network has a positive effect on school attitude and a negative effect on school enjoyment. These results suggest that the higher the ability to follow the rules, the higher the norms of social capital, which suggests that social norms internalized at the individual level also affect group norms, which are the standards of behavior or rituals that members of a group follow when they want to behave as expected of them. We were able to find out that the normative domain of social capital is expanded by increasing the interest in school life of elementary and middle school students, and we confirmed that school class attitude is a major influencing factor in developing the network of social capital. Therefore, in order to increase the social capital capacity of elementary and middle school students, it is necessary to devise a plan to form various networks through multifaceted efforts to increase interest in school life and changes in school class attitude.

The purpose of this study is to examine how area characteristics influence the health of a population in a particular area by investigating how area deprivation and social capital influence self-rated health. For this study, a multi-level logistic regression was employed to analyze the data collected by Community Health Survey conducted on a target population of 229,186 living at 253 administrative areas of Korea in 2011. First, an analysis was conducted for subjects who have rated their self-health assessment as 'fair', 'poor', and 'very poor' in a 5 -item response survey. Then, a second analysis was conducted for the same subjects by excluding those with a rating of 'fair'. As a result, we found that area deprivation significantly influenced the population's health, according to our second analysis, while it was not significant according to our first analysis. Moreover, social capital was not significant in both analyses. Area deprivation-although the value of it was not so high-seems to explain the differences of individual self-rated health assessment as a contextual effect. In addition, influence of area characteristics is not limited to certain local areas, but to all local areas of Korea. Therefore, it is suggested that efforts to improve area characteristics are necessary to upgrade the individual's health level. A standardized classification system-distinguishing between good and poor self-rated health-is necessary through further comparative studies on self-rated health assessment.

기업활동의 범세계화(汎世界化), WTO 출범 등으로 세계경제(世界經濟)의 통합(統合)과 무국경화(無國境化)가 진행되고 있다. 이에 따라 자본 고급인력 등 국제이동성(國際移動性)이 높은 자원들이 유동화(流動化)할 것이고, 그 결과 토지, 사회간접자본, 미숙련 노동력, '경기규칙', 사회 전반적인 과학기술수준, 문화 등 국제이동성(國際移動性)이 낮은 광의(廣義)의 생산요소(生産要素)들이 한 나라의 경제적 특성을 결정하고 경제 기반을 이룰 것이다. 무국경시대(無國境時代)에는 자원배분뿐 아니라 자원유치(資源幽致)가 한 나라의 경제성과에 큰 영향을 미칠 것이며, 따라서 자원유치가 경제운영의 중요한 과제로 등장할 것으로 예상된다. 자원의 국제적(國際的) 유동화(流動化)는 국제이동성(國際移動性)이 높은 생산요소들이 국제이동성이 낮은 생산요소들을 찾아 경제활동의 근거지를 선택하는 것이므로, 무국경시대(無國境時代)에는 저이동성(低移動性) 생산요소(生産要素)들의 양적(量的) 확충(擴充)및 질적(質的) 수준(水準) 제고(提高)를 통한 자원유치(資源誘致)의 가능성이 커지며, 따라서 일부 첨단기술산업의 육성보다는 전반적인 과학기술(科學技術) 수준(水準) 제고(提高)가, 소수의 고급인력 확보보다는 다수(多數) 미숙련(未熟練) 인력(人力)의 질적(質的) 수준(水準) 제고(提高)가 경제성과를 높이는 데 상대적으로 더 중요해진다. 또한 경제적(經濟的) 무국경화(無國境化)는 국적에 관한 속인주의(屬人主義)의 퇴조와 속지주의(屬地主義)의 보편화, 한 나라 국경 안에 상이한 특성을 가진 지방경제(地方經濟)들의 부상, 국내 산업들 사이의 산업연관관계(産業聯關關係) 약화(弱化) 등의 변화를 수반할 것으로 예상된다. 이같은 변화로 개방주의(開放主義) 및 무차별주의(無差別主義)의 확대(擴大)가 불가피하게 되고 특정 산업에 대한 정부지원 및 보호의 근거가 약화되는 반면, 자원배분의 참고단위로서 개별(個別) 경제주체(經濟主體)들의 중요성이 높아지며 그만큼 시장경쟁을 지배하는 '경기규칙(鏡技規則)'의 올바른 정립이 중요해진다. 그러므로 정부는 자원배분에 대한 개업을 축소하고, 저이동성(低移動性) 생산요소(生産要素)들의 양적 질적 수준 제고, 특히 '경기규칙(競技規則)'의 공정성(公正性) 및 투명성(透明性)을 높여야 한다. 즉 정부가 폐쇄성 높은 경제의 지배인으로부터 개방(開放)된 시장경제(市場經濟)의 후견인으로 바뀌어야 한다. 이것이, 시장질서(市場秩序)가 우리를 먹여 살리는 손이라는 인식이나 국제분업(國際分業)이 살 길이라는 확신이 부족한 우리 사회에 무국경시대(無國境時代)가 던지는 어려운 도전(挑戰)이다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the moderating effect of social capital in regards to the influence that family income and job status have on the level of satisfaction with family relationships among married immigrant women. We conducted the second analysis of "2009 National Survey of Multicultural Family State" and used moderated regression analyses. Controlled variables included age, education level, offspring status, and Korean proficiency, while independent factors included family income and job status. Moderating variables of social capital included trust, participation, and network. The results showed that all the demographic variables, as well as family income and job status, had significant influences on married immigrant women's satisfaction with family relationships. In particular, when factors of social capital interacted with family income and job status, the study showed that it had a different influence on the satisfaction with family relationships. Moreover, the moderating effects have been shown to be more certified through its comparison of the increasing and decreasing trends of social capital. This research has been shown to be significant, based upon the findings on moderating effects of social capital in respect to married immigrant women's level of satisfaction with family relations. Practical implications of our results in the context of social welfare were discussed.

This study assesses the national AI competitiveness of 38 OECD countries with focus on AI human capital, AI infrastructure, and AI innovation capacity. Utilizing the fuzzy-set ideal type analysis method, these countries were categorized into eight distinct types based on their national AI competitiveness levels, leading to the derivation of pertinent implications. The analysis identified a category termed "AI Leading Country" consisting of North American, Western European, and Nordic countries, along with several Asian nations including South Korea. Remarkably, the United States demonstrated dominant global national AI competitiveness, achieving the highest fuzzy scores across all three evaluative factors. South Korea was classified as an "AI Leading Country" primarily due to its superior AI infrastructure, but its performance in AI human capital and AI innovation capacity was found to be moderate relative to other analyzed nations; thus highlighting the necessity of sustained focus on the accumulation of AI human capital and bolstering of AI innovation capacity.

This study aimed to investigate the relationship among positive psychology capital, social support and emotion regulation ability of nursing college students and to examine the effect of social support and emotion regulation ability on positive psychology capital. 157 nursing college students were participated in the study. Data were collected by structured questionnaire and analyzed by SPSS / Win 21.0 program. The results showed that the level of positive psychology capital among nursing college students was above middle level(3.68/5), and there was a significant positive correlation among positive psychology capital and social support and emotional regulation ability. The results showed that factors affecting positive psychological capital were gender (${\beta}=-.11$), teaching relationship (${\beta}=.16$), evaluation support (${\beta}=.40$) and self emotion regulation (${\beta}=.39$). The overall explanatory power of the model was 68%, and by emotional self control of the emotion regulation ability explanatory power of the positive psychological capital was 9%. In order to enhance positive psychology capital of nursing college students, it is an effective strategy to develop and provide an emotional regulation program.

The purpose of this study is to compare the perceptions of loneliness, death anxiety, and social capital among older adults living in urban and rural communities and to examine the moderating effects of social capital on the relationship between loneliness and death anxiety. Utilizing the survey data collected by the Aging Society and Social Capital Research Center in 2018, we analyzed 839 older adults living in urban areas and 322 rural older adults living in rural areas. We used descriptive statistics, results from t-tests, and χ² tests to compare the rates of loneliness, social capital, and death anxiety perceived by older adults across urban and rural areas. The moderating effects of social capital on the relationship between loneliness and death anxiety were tested by logistic regression analyses for each group of urban and rural older adults. Compared to older adults living in rural areas, a greater number of older adults in urban areas reported death anxiety and higher levels of loneliness. However, the perceived levels of social capital were higher among rural older adults. The moderating effects of social capital on the relationship between loneliness and death anxiety were not found among older adults living in urban area, but, for older adults living in rural areas, social capital including social cohesion and social support moderated the relationship between loneliness and death anxiety. The results of this study suggest that regional differences shown in the perceptions of loneliness, death anxiety, and social capital should be addressed, when considering extensions of social capital and related interventions to deal with loneliness and death anxiety among older adults.

A Volunteer Fire Brigade is a voluntary social services organization that performs various assistance works in fire fighting activities such as fire fighting and rescue of human lives on a part-time basis. Recently, it has also assumed an important role in the creation of security culture of local society. Besides, it provides diverse service activities related to security of local society. However, as this kind of volunteer fire brigade organization is not in a vigorous state, research for an improvement is being carried out in earnest. As part of a vitalization plan of the volunteer fire brigade, an attempt was made in this research to present an activation plan of the volunteer fire brigade through formation of social capital. Accordingly, efforts were made in this research to investigate and analyze an awareness of social capital among the volunteers and to present on this basis a plan for formation of social capital for the volunteer fire brigade of local society. As a result of the research, it turned out that social norm has the major effect on the formation of social capital for volunteer fire brigade. Therefore, it is our belief that an independent statute should be established to nurture and develop volunteer fire brigades. And when strong mutual trust among the volunteers are formed and efforts for devotion to local society are made on this basis, the security level of local society will be enhanced further.

필자는 국가 간 국민소득의 차이는 국민 개개인의 자질보다도 그 국가가 보유하고 있는 제도의 품질 차에서 비롯된다고 믿고 있다. 그러므로 이러한 제도들은 정부가 생산하여 국민에게 공급하여야 하는 공공재이고 눈에 보이는 도로, 항만보다도 훨씬 더 중요한 사회간접자본이다. 그래서 지금쯤이면 25년 이전의 공정거래법의 골격을 지금의 발전된 우리 국가와 경제의 수준에 맞추어서 전반적으로 한 단계 업그레이드 할 것을 진지하게 검토할 때가 되었다고 생각하는 것이다.

동북아 지역은 경제적으로 선진국과 신흥공업국, 개발도상국이란 서로 상이한 경제발전 수준을 가지고 있으며, 정치적으로는 자본주의와 사회주의라는 다른 체제가 공존하고 있다. 이러한 상황 속에서 한반도에는 남북정상회담 이후 남북 교류의 새로운 장을 열게된 경의선 복원사업이 실시됨과 동시에 러시아가 경원선 연결을 통하여 시베리아횡단철도와 한국철도의 연결을 제의하여 철도 연결을 둘러싼 동북아의 상황은 빠르게 변모하고 있다. (중략)
