We have long kept our Cartesian tradition in which Mind privileges over Body; the invention of printing technology has accelerated the tradition in which the intelligence and legibility of media were considered as a higher human value. However, the development of media and technology are supporting the multisensory mechanisms of the body as it was in preliterate era when we communicated with our whole bodily experiences. The development and spread of mass-media and new technologies have broaden the boundary of human sensory that are largely dominated by visual information and expanded it to auditory, olfactory and even gustatory sensation. Since 1960's, some philosophers and artists have recognized the human body as a subjective matter, starting the movement in which the body plays a role as an essential factor in study of human perception and cognition, aesthetics in art, and sociology, and the changed perspectives are practiced vigorously in the field of new media art; the theory of Maurice Merleau-Ponty who clarified the body as a general means for the body's possession of world, so that recognize the importance of cognition of one's body and approved the embodiment could be applied and practiced here. Therefore, we discuss how Merleau-Ponty's philosophical theory can be practiced and how McLuhan's perspective could be applied on the notion of body's extension in media by analysing some new media art cases.

A comparison was made between workers exposed to organic solvents and those not exposed to them regarding stress perception and psychopathology, using GARS scale and SCL-90-R. The exposed group scored significantly higher than the non-exposed group in stress perception relevant to job-wort changes in relationship, sickness or injury, financial, and overall global area. The exposed group was significantly higher in somatization scale than the non-exposed group. However, there was no significant correlation between duration of exposure and psychopathology. In each of the groups. female workers showed more psychopathology than male ones. Age showed significantly nagative correlation with psychopathology. These results suggest that the exposed group shows higher stress perception and more psychopathology than the non-exposed group. Thus. it is emphasized that health policy makers as well as employers should pay more attention to health. espcially mental health for the workers exposed to organic solvents.

The acting of physical action of the director Kang Yang Won's plays is mostly simple and repetitive. This acting induces the audience to sensuous perception and certain corporal emotions. In addition to semiotic meaning of dialogue a stimulus is given directly to sense of the audience. Therefore, the audience participate in creating a performative space with assistance of atmosphere. So, the feedback-loop of autopoiesis is made and the emergence of meaning is experienced due to felt perception. This emergent meaning springs unexpectedly by imagination, remembrance, and association etc. and is not produced on purpose. In addition, the audience participates in the performance together by the intersection of the perception for representation and perception for presence, and is especially affected by the presence of acting of physical action. In this paper, the study of four major performances of the theatre troupe Dong performed since the 2010s confirmed not only the individuality of each performance, but also the commonality that encompasses the entire performances. This led to discovering the discrimination power of the aesthetics of theater of the director Kang Yang Won and the theatre troupe Dong.

This study is on the constructive ways of body perception applied to architecture space. This research also has a purpose of extending the range of possibility of body perception's application. Research on the phenomenological method applied to architecture space was mainly focused on sensation, which made limited awareness on the range of body perception. The scope of body perception includes not only sensation, but also perception, cognition, and human behavior. Therefore this study explicate how operant features of body perception works together. Operant features of body perception are perception as cognition, synesthesia, and Interaction with others. Herzog & de Meuron, Sejima, and R. Koolhaas's works are reviewed to verify these features of body perception.

The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of children's perception of body shape and body image on their negative emotions. The subjects were 345 3rd and 6th graders. Questionnaires were used to investigate the children's perception of their body shape and body image, and negative emotions. Data analyzed by SPSS-WIN program included mean, standard deviation, ANOVA, Scheffe's test and regression. Results were as follows. (1) The 6th graders perceived their body image more negatively than the 3rd graders did. (2) The children who perceived themselves more obesely had more negative body image and more negative emotions than those who did not. (3) There were interaction effects among the children's grade, sex and body shape perception on their body image perception. (4) The regression analysis demonstrated that children's perception of appearance was more influential on the negative emotions than their body shape perception.

편측무시는 뇌졸중 환자에게서 나타나는 지각 손상중의 하나로 말초 운동 및 감각 신경의 손상과 상관없이 손상된 대뇌반구의 반대편의 공간과 신체의 지각이 감소된 상태로 양방향에서 동시에 주어지는 자극에 대해서 한쪽 자극만을 지각하며 뇌손상 반대편의 신체 움직임의 인식 부족과, 무시된 공간쪽으로의 적은 눈 움직임을 보인다. 이와 같은 편측무시를 측정하는 기존 방법으로는 Albert Test, Line bisection Test, Star Cancellation Test 등이 있다. 하지만, 기존 편측무시 평가 방식에는 여러 가지 단점들이 발생한다. 항상 새로운 평가용지가 필요, 검사시간이 오래 소모되고, 모든 작업을 수작업으로 진행, 종이로 데이터를 관리, 수작업이므로 인력낭비 발생한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 아날로그 방식에서 나오는 문제점들을 누구나 사용하고 있는 스마트 디바이스를 이용해 디지털방식으로 전환하여 기존의 비효율적이던 방식을 개선시키고자 평가시스템을 개발하고자 한다.

Though new body movement based input system immerged in Virtual Reality (VR), VR still has a visually induced motion sickness (VIMS) problem to be accepted for users. VIMS are caused by changes in visually perceived movement that discord with vestibular system's sense of movement. Not only Head-body movements, but also hand gestures to make commands and torso movement can affect visual movement perception by enhancing immersion and its psychological product; presence. The question arises does whole body movement and hand gesture to make commands are more dominant to arousal, presence, and VIMS? To address this question, we conducted "2 (IV1; head-body movements only vs. whole body movements) * 1" between subject design experiment. The results showed that significant effect on whole body movements and arousal, marginally significant effect on presence. Eyewear usage was a moderator between hand gesture and presence relationship.

This descriptive study looks into the levels of BMI, dietary habits, body image, and eating attitudes which have a major impact on the obesity management of female college students. A total of 173 female college students from the same school participated in this study by filling out a self-administered questionnaire investigating actual conditions. The average age of the participants was 19.5 years old and the average BMI was $21.8kg/m^2$. There were statistically significant differences in dietary habit at home (t=2.957, p=.004), eating attitudes BMI (F=5.324, p=.006), actual body image within perceived body esteem and BMI (F=36.979, p=.000), level of state body esteem BMI (F=11.539, p=.000), level of eating attitudes BMI(F=5.324, p=.006). Among the relationships between variables, the higher the BMI, the higher the score for perceived body esteem and problems concerning eating attitudes became prevalent. The higher the actual body image score, the lower the state body esteem and problems concerning eating attitudes became prevalent. Therefore, there is a need for education that enhances positive body image and eating attitudes in order for female college students to manage obesity due to dietary habits.
