다양한 게임의 분야 중 온라인게임의 가장 큰 특징은 게임 속 캐릭터가 게이머 지시에 따라 역할을 수행하며 이를 통해 캐릭터가 성장하는 상호작용성을 갖는 것이다 온라인 게임에서의 캐릭터는 게이머 자신을 표현하는 대상이 되며 동시에, 현실의 자아와 게임의 세계관이 결합해서 나오는 하나의 인격체이기도 하다. 캐릭터 선정은 게이머가 게임을 시작하기 위해 진행하는 최초의 행위이기 때문에 게이머들은 각자 판단하는 기준을 사용하여 캐릭터를 선정하게 된다. 따라서 게이머의 캐릭터 선정 기준을 파악하는 것은 게임 캐릭터를 기획/디자인하는 과정에서 필수적인 사항이라고 말할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 게임캐릭터를 선정하는 과정에서 게이머의 결정에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하기 위해, WoW 여성 캐릭터의 성격과 호감도를 중심으로 가설을 설정하고 연구를 진행하였다. 캐릭터의 선정 과정과 호감도의 상관관계를 알아보기 위하여 피설문자의 캐릭터 선정 순위와 피설문자가 평가한 각각의 캐릭터의 호감도와 성격의 5요인을 분석하여 캐릭터의 선정 결과와 호강도의 관계를 도출하였다. 이를 통해 가설을 검증하고 게임 캐릭터의 기획 및 디자인 과정에서의 캐릭터 구성 방향을 제안한다.

A changed image that they feel through makeup manipulates impression by linking with cultural standards and will be able to direct a variety of makeup images. Makeup in modern society has been expanding into the area of prevention of diseases and health of skin due to the development of cosmetics and has beautifully changed a face into a someone else's face due to the development of makeup technique. Also, assuming that motivation of makeup act of men and women is related to sexual instincts, I tried to analyze what kind of association the gender roles and the function of makeup required by the society has with age and regional and social background. In particular, I tried to explain that makeup act of men not only represents cognitive change of gender roles that have been perceived differently in modern society but has been adopted by men for the pure purpose in a socially equitable competition.

This study contributes to understanding women's labor market behavior by focusing on a particular set of labor force transitions - labor force withdrawal and entry during the period surrounding the first birth of a child. In particular, this study provides a dynamic analyses, using longitudinal data and event history analysis, to conceptualize labor force behaviors in a straightforward way. The main research question addresses which factors increase or decrease the hazard rates of leaving and entering the labor market. This study used piecewise Gompertz model, following the guide of the non-parametric analysis on the hazard rates, which allowed relatively detailed description on the distribution of timing of leave and entry to the labor market as parameters of interest. The results show that preferences and structural variables, as well as economic considerations, are very important factors to explain the labor market behavior of women in the period surrounding childbirth.

This study explored the emotional and social implications of social media "like" behavior and examined the difference in this behavior across gender. Most studies on social media have analyzed the "like" behavior quantitatively and determined the number of "likes" produced and exchanged. The current study presented a different view by applying a social perspective and analyzing the user intrinsic motives embedded in the "like" behavior. Specifically, we identified empathy and social support as the "like" motivations and used relationship building and information sharing as the mediators. Furthermore, we hypothesized that empathy and social support exhibit different effects on the use of social media across gender: the female group shows strong empathy, and the male group shows strong social support. Validation was performed through a survey of 285 social media users. The results confirmed that empathy and social support have significant effects on the use of social media. However, gender difference in the use of social media was not evident and was only partially evident in the effects of empathy and social support.

TSexual violence is physical and mental violence that violates the sexual self-determination contrary to the intention of the other party such as rape, forced molestation, sexual harassment, caught hidden camera. It is one of the many criminal acts that male is perpetrators and female is victims. Sexual harassment, one of the sexual violence is forced sexual harassment. It is considered a color frame where each pixel has 3 color components such that RGB. The averaging the absolute difference between the current frame and te next frame is divided by the absolute difference between the current frame and the previous frame. If there was a difference between the frame pair before a scene change the discontinuity value indicating a scene change could be relatively small. Therefore, Thus, the use of the redefined equation and redefined algorithm can be seen as it is much more good via experiment.

Purpose: This study was to identify relationships between the levels of perceived stress, cancer-related knowledge, attitude and prevention behaviors, and to explore factors influencing cancer prevention behaviors of adult women in Korea. Methods: This study was a descriptive research, using a cross-sectional survey. A convenience sample of 314 women aged 20 to 64 was selected. A self-administered questionnaire was used to measure perceived stress, cancer-related knowledge, cancer-related attitude, and cancer prevention behaviors. The data were analyzed with the SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. Results: Cancer-related knowledge significantly differed according to age, marital status, education level, and occupation. While correlations between cancer-related knowledge, cancer-related attitude, and cancer prevention behaviors were positive, correlations between perceived stress and cancer prevention behaviors were negative. The hierarchical regression analyses revealed significant positive relations between cancer prevention behaviors and age (${\beta}=.18$, p=.003), perceived health status (${\beta}=.22$, p<.001), periodic checkup (${\beta}=.21$, p=.002), and cancer-related attitude (${\beta}=.25$, p<.001). Perceived stress on the other hand was negatively related to cancer prevention behaviors (${\beta}=-.23$, p<.001). Conclusion: Interventions targeting women, especially young adults should focus on enhancing cancer-related attitude in order to improve cancer prevention behaviors. Thus, there continues to be a need to reduce perceived stress in adult women.

As the fertility level in Korea continues to drop with detrimental implications for the society, it has regained much attention of academics and policy makers. This study, building on the previous research on fertility behavior, attempts to explore the plan of young married women to have an additional child. While such plan is not always put into practice, it is still closely related to fertility behavior. In addition, it can provide useful clues to understanding behavior in the future. Utilizing a recent nationwide survey on marriage and fertility, the study analyzes the plan of further birth among young married women according to the number of their children. The results show that the plan for first child is quite universal as no difference is found by their socioeconomic and demographic characteristics. However, having plan for second child differs by the work status of husbands, presence of mother of young married women, and the sex of first child. The effects of first two factors suggest that young married women take into consideration stability of home economics and availability of care sharing. As for the plan for the child, the present and ideal sex composition of children appear most important. The results indicate that the mechanism of fertility progression differs by the current number of children. Thus, consideration of such differential would help us deepen our understanding of fertility behaviors and need to reflect in the study. The study also argues that comprehensive and systematic qualitative research should be accompanied by to capture complexity of fertility decision making process.
