The purpose of this paper is twofold: (1) to investigate how the online communities of restaurants affect the members and create the value by exploring some desirable member behaviors related to the membership, and (2) to examine the possible moderating effect of topic involvement on a member behavior paradigm. The sense of membership was proposed as a prerequisite determinant of two basic member behavior (i.e., purchase-related behavior and group-related behavior). Results of this study confirmed that the level of a member's sense of membership had a positive effect on his/her member behavior. The topic involvement levels of a member was further revealed to strengthen the magnitudes of the proposed relationships. Highly involved members were more likely to engage in both purchase-related behavior and group-related behavior when they were attached to their communities.

We have been analyzed by research on the characteristics of professional consciousness, professional preparation, employment, and career life aimed at Chinese students. There is a tendency that overall trend is almost the same, even though there might be a small difference according to the characteristics of Chinese students' gender and scholastic year. Especially, a drift to the economic aspect of professional consciousness is a reflection of increasing hardship on our society. In spite of now is the era of disappearing permanent job and being changed to the concept of lifelong career, there is exceedingly rare places for getting education of professional consciousness or related information. It is needed to inform upright professional consciousness and to educate the Chinese students.

This study examines the effect of national identity and threat awareness on the multi-cultural acceptability and whether contact theory actually work. For the analysis, this study used '2013 Korea General Social Survey' data and compared two groups divided according to whether or not they live in ethnic places using structural equation modeling. The empirical analysis shows that national identity does not have a direct effect on multi-cultural acceptability, and threat awareness has a full mediating effect between national identity and multi-cultural acceptability. In addition, the negative effect of the threat awareness on multi-cultural acceptability was greater in groups living in ethnic places. The findings suggest that multi-cultural awareness education is necessary to reduce the threat awareness toward foreigners, and that community-level programs are needed to prevent and coordinate conflicts arising from contact between foreigners and Koreans.
