Recently, the interest among Korean broadcasters in the 'observation entertainment' genre has intensified. This study aims to analyze the genre and storytelling of observation entertainment programming from a narratological perspective. The origin of the Korean observation entertainment program began with the 'reality-variety show'. There was a 'real-life' debate in these reality-variety shows, and as an alternative, the observation entertainment program appeared. Documentary filming, omnibus composition, and spatialization of 'everyday' life have led to the recognition of observation entertainment as a single genre. In particular, 'observers' have become a key factor in the observation entertainment program. The subject of the program is determined by who the observer is. The variability of the program format is the same. The observer looks at the observation target on behalf of the viewer. At the same time, he or she serves as a narrator of the program. The observer functions as the most influential factor in the storytelling of the observation entertainment program. In the observation entertainment program, 'observation' is only a form. It is the observer who creates a narrative within this same format to make the difference between each program. Also, voyeurism has been considered a problem in reality shows such as observation entertainment programs. However, the form communicated by observers is not a direct peek, so much of the problem of voyeurism is mitigated. Such observation entertainment programs analyzed through observers are meaningful in that they make people understand the cultural meaning of "reality" in TV and the storytelling of contemporary Korean TV entertainment.

Even in our modern era, the projection of monsters in the recent literature contains the critical imagination of human existence for the posthuman age. The meaning of the monster-abject, especially as from the perspective of feministic criticism, contains criticism of the violent and oppressive patriarch as observed in the modern times. This article focuses on the gendered imagination of the discussions of the "abject" discussed by Julia Kristeva, and the "monstrous femine" discussed by Barbara Creed. Kim Eon-Hee's poems and Han Kang's novels, which have been examined extensively for analysis, show that the practical strategy of abject that goes beyond hate and sublime, wonder and joy through the imagination and concepts of monsters. The monster-abject strategy of Kim Eon-Hee's poem can be summarized by the narrative method of mirroring and the imagination of the truncated body. Mirroring falsification, which mimics the male speaker, is a method that some feminists strategically utilize in relation to the problem of female aversion in recent years as noted in the literature. In Kim Eon-Hee's poem, "becoming a man" and "imitating a man," through the method of mirroring appear as an image of cutting to dismantle the body. In that way, the narrative strategy of the abject that draws out abominations and bizarre effects which contains a strong critique of the patriarchal dominant ideology. The monster-abject strategy of Han-Kang's novel is embodied through the being of plants and the process of vegetarian-anorexia process. The world of the adject which was oppressed in the Han-Kang's novel, returns to the senses of the body through the symbol of the body. It is noted that the fictional characters who realize the repressed desire through the pathological symptom expressed by the female, go on to body perform active transformation. The sense of a body in a novel is not only a rejection of the world of animalman-civilization, but also a radically questioning of the noted and recognized boundaries between human beings and non-human being entities. The two writer's works show that the imagination of the monster-adject is not limited to rejecting the existing gender categories, but also goes in the direction of exploring the possibilities of various associated gender actions.

The purposes of this study were to understand how franchisor's influence strategies influenced franchisee's boundary spanning behaviors and how franchisor's entrepreneurship influenced franchisee's boundary spanning behaviors. This study also analyzed whether franchisor's entrepreneurship played a moderating role in the causal relationship between franchisor's influence strategies and franchisee's boundary spanning behaviors. Based on a total of 698 self-administered questionnaires obtained from franchisees(food-service unit owners or managers) in Korea, frequency analysis, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were conducted. The research findings showed results that firstly, promise (${\beta}$=0.292), threat (${\beta}$=-0.256), recommendation (${\beta}$=0.200), information exchange (${\beta}$=0.359), request(${\beta}$=-0.097) and legalistic plea(${\beta}$=-0.137) had a significant effect on franchisee's boundary spanning behaviors and secondly, franchisor's entrepreneurship had a significant positive effect on franchsee's boundary spanning behavior. In addition, the effects of franchisor's promise(${\beta}$=0.168) and threat(${\beta}$=-0.075) on franchisee's boundary spanning behaviors were found to be partially moderated by franchisor's entrepreneurship. Franchisees wanted franchisors to execute a high level of entrepreneurship and deliver a promise in an influence strategy. Limitations and future research directions were also discussed.

This study was conducted to investigate the level of resilience and the factors affecting resilience in nursing students, and to provide basic data to develop a program that improves resilience of nursing students. Data were collected from 155 nursing students in D city from April 15 to May 30, 2018 using the Resilience Scale, College Life Stress Scale, Self-Efficacy Scale (SES), Multi-Dimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS), Positive Affect Scale, and Stress Coping Strategy Scale. Data were analyzed using t-tests, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficient, and multiple regression. The mean score for resilience in nursing students was 3.54 points. There was a significant difference in resilience according to academic score and satisfaction with major. Resilience was significantly correlated with self-efficacy, social support, and active stress coping strategy. Factors that impacted resilience in multiple regression were self-efficacy (${\beta}=0.39$, p<0.001), active stress coping strategy (${\beta}=0.26$, p<0.001), and social support (${\beta}=0.16$, p<0.001). These factors explained 51.0% of the variance in the resilience of nursing students. Therefore, it will be necessary to develop a program that can enhance resilience by strengthening protective factors such as self-efficacy, active stress coping strategies, and social support.

이 논문의 목적은 해군력 개량화를 소개하고 그 활용에 대하여 제안함에 있다. 어떻게 하면 여러 국가 간의 다양한 분쟁에 대한 해군력의 효과를 효과적으로 이해할 수 있을까? 혹은, 어떻게 하면 다양한 해군력의 나라별, 시간별 변화를 이해를 할 수 있을까? 지금까지 많은 학자들이 해군력의 변화와 그 변화에 따른 해군력이 분쟁에 미치는 영향을 규명하려고 많은 노력을 해왔다. 그 중의 한 방법이 정성적인 방법이나 아직 정량적인 시도는 매우 적다. 이 글은 해군력을 정량화하는 방법과 그 데이터를 이용하여 여러 기존 이론을 검증하고 여러 다른 연구주제를 연구하는데 어떻게 이용이 될 것인지를 소개를 하는 글이다. 본 논문의 주요 쟁점은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 계량화적 접근이란 무엇인가에 대해 논의 해 본다. 계량화란 무엇이며 정성적인 방법과의 차이는 무엇인지를 통해 정량화의 이용 가치에 대해 논의해 본다. 둘째, 해군력의 정량화이다. 해군력의 정량화를 위해 어떠한 기준들을 세우고, 그 기준에 따라 함정들을 코딩하고 톤수를 세는 과정을 설명한다. 셋째, 정량화된 해군력을 바탕으로 동북아시아 국가들의 해군력 변화를 서술적으로 분석한다. 이제 주어진 해군력 데이터(주요 함정의 톤수)를 가지고 각 동북아 국가별 시간별로 어떠한 변화를 거처 왔고, 각 분쟁들 (1,2차 세계대전 등)에는 어떠한 상관관계가 있는지를 단순통계적 방법을 이용하여 알아본다. 넷째, 해군력의 변화가 경쟁국가 간의 전쟁 발발에 있어서 어떤 영향을 미치는 지에 대하여 통계적인 방법을 이용하여 검증해 본다. 묘사적인 방법은 다른 요소들에 대한 통제가 이루어 지지 않아, 정확히 해군력과 경쟁국가 간의 전쟁에 대한 인과적인 관계를 증명하기에는 한계가 있다. 따라서, 다른 경쟁적 이론들을 (예를 들어 민주평화론 등) 통제하여 해군력이 숙적국가 간의 전쟁 발발에 미치는 영향을 검증하였다. 상호 해군력의 증가는 경쟁국가 간에는 전쟁을 덜 일으키는 요인으로 작용하였으며, 이는 해군력이 경쟁국가 간에는 억제력이 있다고 추론 할 수 있다. 궁극적으로 해군력의 영향에 대한 정량적인 접근은 기존 연구의 검증, 미래 예측, 국가의 정책결정자들에게 보다 신뢰가 가는 자료를 제공하는 장점들이 있다. 이러한 장점들을 바탕으로 해군력의 영향에 대한 연구는 분쟁분야에 있어서 학술적이나 실용적인 측면에서 많은 이점이 있다.

This study was conducted to identify the factors affecting nursing students' adjustment to college life. 364 students from six different nursing colleges were recruited into the study. The data were collected using questionnaires about bullying, peer support, ego-resilience and adjustment to college life and were analyzed using IBM SPSS 19.0 program. Data were collected from March 3rd, 2014 to December 12th, 2015. The results indicated that bullying(r=-.24, p<.001) had a significant negative association with nursing college adaptation. And adjustment to college life was positively correlated with peer support(r=.38, p<.001) and ego-resilience(r=.69, p<.001). The significant predictors of adjustment to college life were ego-resilience (F=334.33, p<.001), peer support(F=60.86, p<.001) and bullying(F=22.03, p<.001), explaining 47% of the variance. Based on the study results, we suggest that it is necessary to develop and apply the educational strategy to improve the peer support and ego-resilience for the adjustment to college life.
