The survey was conducted from January 10 to February 10, 2011 among the elderly women aged 60 or older in the Guri-si and its environs of Gyeonggi-do, and 380 responses were used in the data analysis. The statistical analysis methods were frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, t-test, ANOVA, and multiple regression analysis. As a result, the physical characteristics of elderly women were classified by the activities of daily living(ADL), physical function, and disease status.

Using open-ended questionnaires, two studies were conducted to explore social representations held by Korean undergraduates on children, adults and adolescents. Study 1 compared between children and adults with responses reported by 97 undergraduates(men: 28, women: 69). According to the results, characteristics of children distinctive from adults were basically personality-related and in particular, typical children were marked by high extroversion, low agreeableness, conscientiousness and culture. Further, happiness for both children and adults was determined mainly by interpersonal relationships, physical health and socio-economical status. However, good(or desirable) children characteristic of high agreeableness and conscientiousness were more similar to adults worthy of the name than to children worthy of the name. Using 57 undergraduates(men: 16, women: 41), Study 2 explored social representations of adolescents. The results indicated that overall adolescence were on the bridging state between childhood and adulthood. Happiness for adolescents, like both children and adults, was determined mainly by interpersonal relationships and socio-economical status. Finally, agreeableness, conscientiousness, self-, task- and relationship-related characteristics were involved in judging good(or desirable) adolescents. These findings were discussed in terms of features of Korean culture and human development.

사회적 커뮤니케이션 미디어는 기업 조직의 사회적 네크워크를 활발히 사용되고 있다. 각 커뮤니케이션 정보시스템은 매우 유용하게 사용되고 있지만, 업무적 특성과 사회적 영향 요인에 대한 연구는 매우 적은 편이다. 또한 새로운 정보기술의 도입, 예를 들면, 메신저와 무선 화상통신과 같은 발전은 매체 풍부성 이론으로 아직까지 적용 검증되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구는 업무적 특성과 미디어 활용 그리고 업무성과에 대한 검증을 실시하였다. 분석방법은 서베이를 통하여 소중대기업에서 근무하고 있는 280명을 대상으로 하였고 회귀분석으로 분석결과를 도출하였다. 연구결과로는 업무 특성은 미디어 사용에 긍정적인 영향요인이며 사회적 영향과 친분관계는 두 관계를 조절하고 있음을 발견하였다. 또한 커뮤니케이션 미디어의 활용은 각 업무성과에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있음을 발견하였다.

한국 사회에서 동영상 컨텐츠와 UCC는 새로운 문화 현상으로 그리고 새로운 광고 도구로써 많은 기대를 받고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 한국의 대표 동영상 컨텐츠 사이트인 아프리카 사용자들을 대상으로 하여, 사용 활동을 기준으로 사용자 유형을 구분하고, 각 유형별 주요 이용 특성을 탐색하고자 하였다. 동영상 이용 활동 및 동영상 컨텐츠 커뮤니티 활동에 있어서의 사회적 자본 특성 문항, 총 96문항을 도구로 하여, 총 39명의 동영상 컨텐츠 이용자 활동을 분석하였다. 분석결과 동영상 컨텐츠 이용자 행동은 '깍쟁이', '시청자', '휴머니스트'의 세가지 유형으로 구분되었다. 또한 이 세 유형은 사이버 공동체에서의 사회적 자본 특성으로 언급되는 유대감, 신뢰, 규범, 교환 및 호혜성, 혜택 등 다섯가지 사회적 자본 특성에서 서로 다른 특성을 보이는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구는 동영상 컨텐츠 사이트를 단순히 동영상 컨텐츠를 교환하거나 소비하는 공간이 아닌 새로운 사이버 공동체의 장으로 활용할 수 있는 단서를 제공했다는데 그 의의가 있다.

오늘날 학생들의 성적을 고려하는 중요한 요소로 사회적인 특성과 환경적인 특성이 매우 중요시 되고 있다. 이는 대인관계, 사회적인 관계, 학교에서의 관계 등이 중요한 요소가 되기 때문이다. 이러한 특징을 잘 표현해 주는 것으로 사상체질에 대한 분석이 있다. 우리가 알고 있는 MBTI를 이용한 분석에 대한 연구가 많이 있으나 이는 환경적인 특성과 사회적인 특성을 잘 반영하지 못하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 사상체질의 특성을 분석하여 세부적인 특징을 추출한 후 잘 알려진 MBTI의 요소와의 관계를 분석한다. 이를 통해 사상체질 분석을 통하여 추출된 내용을 MBTI의 연구된 내용에 접목시켜 학생의 학습방법을 지도할 수 있는 방안을 모색하도록 한다. 또한 사회적, 환경적 특성을 고려한 학습방법을 제시하는데 많은 도움을 줄 수 있다.

Taking note of growing tendency of academic interests and policy applications with regard to social economy, this study aims to suggest economic geographical agenda for social economy. It is presumed that the orientation of social economy toward pursuing social value will exhibit unique spatial characteristics. Elements containing spatial implications have been identified through a review of hierarchial concepts including social innovation, social economy organization and social enterprise. Three approached are suggested as tools of understanding the spatial context of social economy: spatial characteristics inspiring social entrepreneurship, place-based context of decision-making by social economy organizations, and spaces formulated by interactions between the demand for solving social problems and the supply of economic resources. The investigation of social innovation clusters is required to focus on the differentiated characteristics from normal industrial clusters. It is also suggested that the concept of embeddedness be applied in the search of the essence and elements of social economy's ties with local community.

This study focuses on adolescent prosocial behavior as one of the necessary elements for youth to grow as a healthy member of the society. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of peer group on adolescent prosocial behavior by comparing the peer influence model and the individual characteristics model. For the study, we conducted hierarchical multiple regression analyses using the data from the Korean Youth General Survey 2008, administered by the Ministry of Health and Welfare. Results show that friends' prosocial behavior had a positive impact, but friends' antisocial behavior had a negative impact on adolescent prosocial behavior. When individual characteristics including self-esteem and empathy were analyzed simultaneously, empathy, self-esteem, friends' prosocial behavior, and friends' antisocial behavior were found to be statistically significant. The strength of association between individual characteristics and adolescent prosocial behavior was greater than that of friends' behaviors. Also, significant moderating effects of individual characteristics on the relationships between adolescent prosocial behavior and friends' behaviors were found. For example, the positive effect of friends' prosocial behavior on adolescent prosocial behavior increased as adolescent's level of self-esteem increased. On the other hand, the negative effect of friends' antisocial behavior on adolescent prosocial behavior decreased as adolescent's level of empathy increased. Based on the findings, both the peer influence model and the individual characteristics model were considered valid in explaining prosocial behavior of Korean adolescents. Finally, implications of this study for positive youth development were discussed.

This study examined the influence of social support (social support from family, social support from friends), psychological behavioral characteristics (self-esteem, interpersonal dependency, locus of control), and stress on the depression levels of college students. The study subjects were 546 college students in D city. The survey was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire in October 2015. As a result, the depression levels were significantly higher in the group showing lower family and friends' social support, self-esteem, and locus of control, while it was significantly higher in the group showing higher interpersonal dependency and stress. The depression levels of the subjects showed a negative correlation with family and friends' social support, self-esteem, and locus of control, but a positive correlation with interpersonal dependency and stress. Covariance structure analysis revealed an increase in the depression levels of college students when the awareness of the stress source was higher, and when the awareness of social support or psychological behavioral characteristics was lower. These results suggest that the depression levels of college students would be increased when the social support and psychological behavioral characteristics are low, and when stress is high. In particular, it was influenced much more by stress than other factors. Therefore, to decrease the depression levels of college students, it would be necessary to put efforts to understand their main stress sources and then reduce them.

기업 뿐 아니라 사회의 개별 구성원에게 있어서도 컴퓨터 통신 기술의 활용이 급속히 확산됨에 따라 이러한 가상 공간상에서의 활동에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 특히, 가상사회에서의 상거래를 다루는 전자상거래에 대한 연구는 기업과 기업간 전자상거래에 대한 연구를 넘어 기업과 고객간의 전자상거래에 대한 연구로 확대되고 있다. 그러나 전자상거래를 이용하는 소비자에 대한 연구와 이해는 아직도 여러 가치 측면에서 매우 미흡한 실정에 있다. 실물 공간에서의 소비자에 대한 마케팅 분야에서의 연구가 새로운 거래 패러다임인 전자상거래에 대한 설명으로 확대될 수 있는 범위와 논리도 아직 충분하지 않으며, 소비자이며 동시에 기술 사용자라는 특성이 어떻게 통합될 수 있는지에 대한 연구도 미흡한 실정이다. 전자상거래를 추진하고 있는 사업자에게 있어서는 가상사회의 이용자에 대한 심도 있는 분석과 이해가 필수적인 요건이 될 것이다. 본 연구에서는 가상사회에서의 기술 이용자의 개인적인 심리적 특성이 매체와 기술의 이용패턴과 어떤 관련성을 가지고 있는지를 분석함으로써 가상사회 구성원의 행태적 특성을 파악해 보고자 하였다.
