The Chinese counterfeits has begun to gain great attention recently because of the drastic increase in its volume. The consumption of counterfeit harms to manufacturer who spend millions of dollars to create and develop new product. The counterfeits in Chinese can cause international dispute and lower national reputation. The purpose of this study were to examine if the buyers of counterfeits tend to care more about interpersonal relationship than non-buyers among Chinese. Data were gathered by surveying Chinese consumer living in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou metropolitan area using convenient sampling, and 480 questionnaires were used in the statistical analysis. In analyzing data, descriptive statistics, factor analysis, structural equation modeling with AMOS were conducted. The results of this study were follows, first, attitude toward counterfeits was classified into three factors such as interpersonal relationship, perception, and involvement. It is general belief that attitudes toward counterfeits were correlated with on brand attachment, however this study show that the buyers of counterfeits tended to purchase counterfeit goods as more alternatives of genuine(original) product than non-buyers. Perhaps, the buyers of counterfeits tended to have lower consumer ethics than non-buyers because they value counterfeit high. It is generally accepted that both a producer and a buyer violate the laws, but they are rather generous for buyer. The results of this study suggest consumers' attitude towards counterfeit need to be changed, following consumer education and strict law enforcement. Based on these results, global brand marketing strategies for luxury goods were suggested.

The purposes of this study were to: a) provide evidence concerning the effects of emotional intelligence on job outcomes, b) examine the impacts of emotional intelligence on employee-related variables such as 'job satisfaction', 'organizational commitment', 'organizational performance', and 'turnover intention' c) identify the conceptual framework underlying emotional intelligence. A survey was conducted to collect data from foodservice managers (N=231). Statistical analyses were completed using SPSS Win (16.0) for descriptive analysis, reliability analysis, factor analysis, t-test, correlation analysis, cluster analysis and AMOS (16.0) for confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modeling. The concept of emotional intelligence (EI) has been on the radar screens of many leaders and managers over the last several decades. The emotional intelligence is generally accepted to be a combination of emotional and interpersonal competencies that influence behavior, thinking and interaction with others. The main results of this study were as follows. The four EI (Emotional Intelligence) dimensions correlated significantly with age. The means of job satisfaction score were above the midpoint (3.04 point) scale. The organizational commitment score was above the midpoint (3.41 point) scale and was higher at 'loyalty' factor than 'commitment' factor. The means of organizational performance score were above the midpoint (3.34) scale. The correlations among the four EI (emotional intelligence) factors were significant with job satisfaction; organizational commitment, organizational performance and turnover intention. The test of hypothesis using structural equation modeling found that emotional intelligence produced positive effects on job attitude and job performance. Emotional intelligence enhanced organizational commitment, and in turn, managers' attitude produced positive effects on organizational performance; emotional intelligence also had a direct impact on organizational performance. This study has identified the effect of emotional intelligence on organizational performance and attitudes toward one's job.

The purpose of this study is to explore students' epistemic goals and considerations in designing an experiment task and to investigate how a shift in the students' epistemology affected their argumentation. Four 7th grade students were selected as a focus group. According to the results, when they designed their own experiment, their epistemic goal was 'scientific sense-making' and their epistemic considerations - the perception of the nature of the knowledge product was 'this experiment should explain how something happened', the perception of the justification was 'we need to use our interpretation of the data' and the perception of the audience was 'constructor' - contributed to designing their experiment actively. When students tried to select one argument, their epistemic goal shifted to 'winning a debate', showing 'my experiment is better than the others' with the perception of the audience, 'competitor'. Consequently, students only deprecated the limits of different experiment so that they did not explore the meaning of each experiment design deeply. Eventually, student A's experiment design was selected due to time restrictions. When they elaborated upon their result, their epistemic goal shifted to 'scientific sensemaking', reviewing 'how this experiment design is scientifically valid' through scientific justification - we need justification to make members accept it - acting as 'cooperator'. Consequently, all members engaged in a productive argumentation that led to the development of the group result. This study lays the foundation for future work on understanding students' epistemic goals and considerations to prompt productive argumentation in science classrooms.

With the spread of smartphones, services that want to use personalized data are increasing. In particular, healthcare-related services deal with a variety of data, and data visualization techniques are used to effectively show this. As data visualization techniques are used, interactions in visualization are also naturally emphasized. In the PC environment, since the interaction for data visualization is performed with a mouse, various filtering for data is provided. On the other hand, in the case of interaction in a mobile environment, the screen size is small and it is difficult to recognize whether or not the interaction is possible, so that only limited visualization provided by the app can be provided through a button touch method. In order to overcome the limitation of interaction in such a mobile environment, we intend to enable data visualization interactions through conversations with chatbots so that users can check individual data through various visualizations. To do this, it is necessary to convert the user's query into a query and retrieve the result data through the converted query in the database that is storing data periodically. There are many studies currently being done to convert natural language into queries, but research on converting user queries into queries based on visualization has not been done yet. Therefore, in this paper, we will focus on query generation in a situation where a data visualization technique has been determined in advance. Supported interactions are filtering on task x-axis values and comparison between two groups. The test scenario utilized data on the number of steps, and filtering for the x-axis period was shown as a bar graph, and a comparison between the two groups was shown as a line graph. In order to develop a natural language processing model that can receive requested information through visualization, about 15,800 training data were collected through a survey of 1,000 people. As a result of algorithm development and performance evaluation, about 89% accuracy in classification model and 99% accuracy in query generation model was obtained.

How does $CO_2$ affect on the stomatal mechanism? The mechanism of stomatal opening by $CO_2$ is not clear as it is difficult to see $CO_2$ effect on light-induced stomatal opening. Furthermore, stomata may react differently according to the concentration of $CO_2$. The significance of the possible endogenous rhythms must consider to understand on $CO_2$-related response. It is clear that $CO_2$ has an effect on the accumulation of osmotic materials which determines the degree of stomatal apertures because it is known that stomata open in the condition of the reduced $CO_2$ concentration. However, it is not fully understood how $CO_2$ leads to the stomatal opening. It has been thought that $CO_2$ can not affect on the ion fluxes which determines the increase of osmotic potential in guard cells. However, in this study, the changes of guard cell membrane permeability by $CO_2$ have been focused on. There are many reports that $CO_2$ related reactions are dominant when the leaf is exposed to certain a mount of $CO_2$. The hypothesis of the stomatal opening by light is based on the increase of osmotic materials in guard cells including $K^+$, $Cl^-$, sucrose and $malate^{2-}$. It was reported that $CO_2$ induced a big hyperpolarization indicating that $H^+$ was extruded to the cell outside. It was also found that $CO_2$ caused guard cell membrane hyperpolarization in the intact leaf up to 3 or 4 times higher than that of light induced membrane hyperpolarization. These results represent that $CO_2$ can affect on the change of physical characteristics which affects on the change of the membrane permeability.

One of the most common feelings in everyday life is anger. Anger plays an important role in activating emotional energy and increasing intolerance when confronted with hardships, frustration and improper treatments. And it provides us with controlling interpersonal behavior, organizing internal, physiological, psychological process and various adaptive functions. If anger is not properly expressed, it brings about offensive attitude, leading to not only physical impairment but also anxiety in interpersonal relations and maladaptive to everyday life. For elementary school students, frequent quarrels, abusive words and defiant attitude toward adults are also caused by students' anger. Therefore, students' anger is one of the most difficult problems to be dealt with not only psychologically but also in elementary schools. In this respect, after investigating frequently experienced anger- inducing situations and inventing anger-inducing situation questionnaire, we postulated specific situations changing irrational belief into rational one. Based on these situations, we accounted for how to cope with anger inducing factors and change irrational belief into rational one, introducing several strategies needed to control anger, invented cognitive behavioral anger control program and tried to clarify the relationship between anger inducing experience and anger regulation ability. In order to derive usual anger-inducing situations, we made 180 students with fifth and sixth grade to record the reason why he/she got angry, mood, thought, behavior and result. Through this process, we could derive 47 situations bringing about anger and prepared anger-inducing situation questionnaire. It can be divided into 3 anger inducing situations by using factor analysis into 500 elementary students of fifth and sixth grade. Cognitive behavioral anger control program used in this study consists of 13 sessions. From first to fifth session, it is composed of 10 anger control methods to make students be aware of and control their anger. From sixth through thirteenth session, the relationship between irrational belief and anger inducing is introduced is focused on how irrational belief is changed into rational one. To examine the effects of the program, high anger students and the students lacking anger control are selected. Thirty students through pre-test using anger-inducing questionnaire and anger control ability questionnaire are taught the goals and procedures. Volunteer students and students with parents' consent allocated to experimental group (12 students) and the rest of the students are control group (12 students). Cognitive Behavioral Anger Control Program are applied every 50 minutes twice a week for 7 weeks and 4 weeks before and after this program, anger-inducing situation questionnaire and anger control ability questionnaire are practiced. Data collected in this study analyzed by SPSS and Kwakstat. In the middle of this program, quarterly reports and satisfaction measuratings were evaluated to examine whether there is verbal and non-verbal behavior change and students feel satisfied with the program. The results of this study are as follows: First, Cognitive-behavioral anger control program used in this study effectively reduced anger experience and lasted for 4 weeks. Second, cognitive behavioral anger control program increased students' ability to control anger inducing situations and also effective for 4 weeks. And its effect on verbal and non-verbal behaviour was very impressive Students come to realize that irrational belief is the cause of their anger and actively apply cognitive-behavioral anger control technique to themselves as well. Students became improved in their peer relations and felt confident in everyday life. The overall evaluation of this program can be listed as follows; "very satisfactory (91.67%)", "satisfactory (8.33%)", "very helpful (91.67%)", "helpful (8.33%). In this study we first investigated several anger-inducing situations and invented anger-inducing situation questionnaire and then applied cognitive behavioral anger control program in order to control their. anger and not to experience it. By creating workbooks and manuals this method can easily be used in school education settings.

본 연구는 두 집단지성의 가장 대표적인 서비스인 네이버 지식iN과 위키피디아의 구조적, 경험적 차이를 바탕으로 생산의 차원에서 생산 주기, 생산 참여자, 생산물의 모델을 설정하고, 새롭게 탄생하는 지식을 중심으로 검증함으로써 최종 지식 소비 행위를 반영한 각각의 종합모델을 도출하였다. 우리는 웹에서 집단지성의 일상화를 확인할 수 있다. 지식 획득 매체가 매스미디어에서 인터넷으로 변화하는 과정에서 등장한 포털 및 검색사이트는 지식의 생산이 전문가패러다임에서 소비자 중심으로 재편될 수 있는 가능성을 열어주었다. 그리고 이러한 생산 방식의 변화는 '지식'의 개념 역시 변화시키고 있다. 즉, 집단지성이라는 새로운 웹2.0의 현상이 지식생산방식을 변화시키고 변화된 지식생산방식은 '지식'자체를 변화시킨다는 이론적 가설을 도출할 수 있는 것이다. 본 연구는 이러한 새로운 현상들을 분석하기 위해서는 먼저 보다 엄밀하게 집단지성의 개념을 규정할 필요성에 출발하였다. 현재 집단지성이라는 이름으로 불리면서 급격히 성장하고 있는 위키 방식의 인터넷 서비스와 지식검색 방식의 인터넷 서비스를 비교함으로써 보다 정교한 집단지성의 모델을 구축하고자 하였다. 위키형 집단지성과 지식검색형 집단지성의 차이점은 경험적으로도 뚜렷하게 확인할 수 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 경험적 차이와 기존의 문헌에서 밝혀진 사실들을 바탕으로 두 서비스의 지식생산 방식을 생산플로우, 생산참여자 성향, 생산물(지식)의 성향과 같이 세 영역으로 나누어 각각의 가설 모델을 설정하고 이 모델을 선정된 질의어를 바탕으로 검증한 뒤에 최종적인 모델을 도출하는 방식으로 진행되었다. 지식검색형 집단지성은 '질문-답변-채택'의 구조이고, 그 구조 속에서 '질문기-답변기-순서화기'를 거쳐 하나의 지식 덩어리인 'K-let'을 생산한다. 생산된 'K-let'들은 지식검색서비스의 데이터베이스에 축적되고, 이는 공통된 질의어를 기준으로 소비자들에 의해서 검색되어 소비된다. 하나의 질문에 대해 여러 개의 답변들이 존재하고, 답변자의 성향은 크게 전문성과 체계성을 바탕으로 한 전문가형 답변자와 경험적이고 의견지향적인 대화형 답변자로 나눠진다. 다수의 네티즌들의 참여에 의해서 지식의 생산이 진행되므로 질문의 성향 역시 사실, 의견, 경험 등 다양한 스펙트럼을 가지는 모델로 설정하였다. 반면에 위키형 집단지성은 개방형 플랫폼을 바탕으로 한 백과사전의 형식이며, 이러한 형식 속에서 최초의 개념어 등록과 다수의 편집활동을 거치면서 완성되지 않는 하나의 아티클인 'W-let'을 생산한다. 이러한 'W-let'은 생성 초기에 소수에 의한 활발한 내용 입력 활동으로 어느 정도의 안정화를 거친 후에는 꾸준한 다수의 수정활동을 통해서 'W-let'의 생명력을 유지함으로써 지식의 실제적인 변화를 반영한다. 생산된 'W-let'들은 위키형 집단지성 서비스의 데이터베이스에 축적되고, 이것들은 내부링크를 통해서 모두 연결되어 있다. 백과사전 형식으로 하나의 개념어를 설명하는 하나의 아티클은 오로지 사실적인 지식들로만 구성되나 내부링크와 외부링크를 통해서 다양한 스펙트럼을 가지는 모델로 설정하였다. 위와 같이 설정된 모델을 바탕으로 공통된 질의어 및 개념어를 선정하여 각각의 서비스에 노출시켰다. 이를 통해서 얻어진 각 서비스의 데이터베이스에 축적된 모든 데이터들 중에서 일정한 기간을 기준으로 각각의 모델 검증에 필요한 데이터를 추출하여 분석하는 방식으로 진행되었다. 그 결과 지식검색형 집단지성에서는 '질문-답변-채택'의 생산 구조 속에 다수가 참여하여 질문-채택답변-기타답변으로 배열되어 있는 완성된 형태의 K-let들을 지속적으로 생산하며 비슷한 성향을 가진 K-let들이 반복적으로 생산되어 지식검색 데이터베이스에 누적된다. 지식 소비자들은 질의어 검색을 통해서 다양한 K-let들을 선택하여 비교, 검토한 후에 선택된 K-let들의 배열은 해체되어 소비자들에 의해서 재배열됨을 발견할 수 있었다. 이에 지식검색형 집단지성이란 다수의 의해서 생산되고 누적된 지식들이 소비자의 검색과 선택에 의해 해체되어 재배열되는 지식의 맞춤화 과정이라고 정의내릴 수 있었다. 반면에 위키형 집단지성에서는 '내용입력-미세수정' 구조 속에서 생명력 있는 W-let을 생성한다. W-let은 백과사전처럼 정리되어 내부링크를 통해서 서로 연결되고, 외부링크를 통해 확장되고, 지식소비자들은 검색을 통해 최초의 W-let에 도달한 후에 링크를 선택함으로써 지식을 확장시킴을 검증할 수 있었다. 따라서 위키형 집단지성이란 다수의 의해서 생산되고 정리된 지식들이 소비자의 검색과 링크에 의해 무한히 확장되는 지식의 확대 재생산되는 과정이라고 정의 내릴 수 있다. 결국, 현재의 집단지성이란 지식이 다수의 참여로 생산됨으로써 개인에게 맞춤화되고, 끊임없이 확대 재생산되는 과정을 의미한다. 그리고 이러한 집단지성의 방식은 지식이라는 현재의 차원을 넘어서 정치, 경제를 비롯한 사회의 전 영역으로 점차적으로 확대되어갈 것이다. 앞으로 연구들은 두 가지 모델이 혼재되어 있는 현재의 집단지성이 어떠한 새로운 모델을 만들면서 다른 영역으로 확장되어갈 것인지에 대해서 초점을 맞춰 나가야할 것이다.

Objectives : Recent neuroimaging studies focus on dysfunctions in connectivity between cognitive circuits and emotional circuits: anterior cingulate cortex that connects dorsolateral orbitofrontal cortex and prefrontal cortex to limbic system. Previous studies on pediatric depression using DTI have reported decreased neural connectivity in several brain regions, including the amygdala, anterior cingulate cortex, superior longitudinal fasciculus. We compared the neural connectivity of psychotropic drug naïve adolescent patients with a first onset of major depressive episode with healthy controls using DTI. Methods : Adolescent psychotropic drug naïve patients(n=26, 10 men, 16 women; age range, 13-18 years) who visited the Korea University Guro Hospital and were diagnosed with first onset major depressive disorder were registered. Healthy controls(n=27, 5 males, 22 females; age range, 12-17 years) were recruited. Psychiatric interviews, complete psychometrics including IQ and HAM-D, MRI including diffusion weighted image acquisition were conducted prior to antidepressant administration to the patients. Fractional anisotropy(FA), radial, mean, and axial diffusivity were estimated using DTI. FMRIB Software Library-Tract Based Spatial Statistics was used for statistical analysis. Results : We did not observe any significant difference in whole brain analysis. However, ROI analysis on right superior longitudinal fasciculus resulted in 3 clusters with significant decrease of FA in patients group. Conclusions : The patients with adolescent major depressive disorder showed statistically significant FA decrease in the DTI-based structure compared with healthy control. Therefore we suppose DTI can be used as a bio-marker in psychotropic drug-naïve adolescent patients with first onset major depressive disorder.

The Swedish welfare state has been the model for others to emulate the archetypical example of state intervention. The state interventions are presented in the form of legal acts. These social welfare acts can be classified according to the demographic transition theory. According to the Bogue's theory, the demographic transition in Sweden took place in four stages : the pre-transitional stage before 1810; the early transitional stage from 1810 to 1860; the mid-transitional stage from 1860 to 1930; the late transitional stage from 1930 to now. As we look into the social welfare acts in Sweden, the relief of the poor was the major concern of the early transitional stage, the care of workers was the major concerns of the mid-transitional stage and the care of the families was the major concerns in the late transitional stage. The Korea's transition period can be devided as follows; the pre-transitional stage before 1960; the early transitional stage from 1960 to 1969; the mid-transitional stage from 1970 to 1987; and the late transitional stage from 1987 to now. In Korea, the major concern of the early transitional stage was the care of the officials and the workers; in the mid-transitional stage the care of the aged and the handicapped were the major concerns. And in the late transitional stage the expanding of the welfare clients was the major concern. If we compare the results of both countries, the relief of the poor, the care of the workers and the care of the families will be the major concerns in Korea, because the social welfare acts in Korea are extended to specific groups and not to the whole population. The acts related to these social issues have been arranged in 120 years in Sweden. But Korea had to do the same work in 27 years. So the burden of making those social acts will be four times heavier. If we want to extend the benefits of the social system to the general population, we need to look at the design and approach of the swedish model. The reason why swedish social acts constitute an international model has more to do with the uniqueness of its design and approach. First of all, it is characteristic by its universalism, secondly by its emphasis on social services and thirdly by its productivitism. Also the swedish welfare state supported by a high-tax system called the earnings-related welfare system. In order to achieve an effective welfare state, we Koreans should pay attention to the relief of the poor, the care of the worker and the families. We should also focus on a good system design and prepare appropriate budgets.

This study explored how media and interpersonal communication affected voters in Busan mayoral by-election, focusing on the mutual relations among media use and attentive use of political campaign, interpersonal communication, and voting participation. Also, comparative analysis between image factor and the factor of political party influencing the decision of a candidate were examined. Additionally, it was analysed differential media effects on candidates' image. According to the results, the local media use and attentive use of political campaign had the influence on the increase of interpersonal communication about the election. Voters who had much interpersonal discussion with others participated more than voters who had less interpersonal discussion. Media use did not directly affect the participation of voting, but indirectly contributed to participation of voting through interpersonal discussion. The assumption of differential media effects on candidates image was partly proved. There were statistically significant differences in the factor of competence of candidates' image among three experimental groups (attentive use of TV discussion program, Internet web sites of two candidates, and printing materials of political advertisement). Furthermore, with three main vote variables, issues, candidates image, party identification, the results of comparative analysis between image factor and the factor of political party influencing the choice of a candidate suggested that a sense of oneness with a party was highly related to the choice of the candidates of the party, however, candidates' image was not related to the decision of a candidate. Political party had more impact on for whom to vote than candidates' image in this study.
