Objectives: The purpose of this study is to test the reliability of the Korean version of self-compassion scale (K-SCS). Methods: The total of 484 participants were included in this study. Reliability studies were conducted and internal consistency were examined. Results: The internal consistency of the K-SCS was 0.76, and test-retest reliability was 0.53. Conclusion: The K-SCS appeared to be a reliable instrument for assessing self-compassion in Korean population. If supplements further studies of the validity, this scale may be applicable in clinical trials, research, clinical practice.

Loving-kindness & compassion meditation (LCM) is one of the popular intervention on clinical setting to cultivate loving-kindness & compassion for self and other. Shame is known for unconscious and implicit emotion including negative self-concept. Some researchers suggest that people with high shame have difficulty in cultivating loving-kindness & compassion toward oneself because of shame including the negative self-critic. In this research, it is explored the influence of shame for the object of LCM. There are 2 experiments to find out the answer to this question. In experiment 1, participants (N = 108) are randomly assigned to two conditions. The one condition is loving-kindness meditation for self, and the other is loving-kindness meditation for positive others. Dislike and engagement from participants about loving-kindness meditation instruction are measured after meditation for 8 minutes. From the experiment 2, loving-kindness meditation is replaced with compassion meditation from the design of experiment 1. This experiment is conducted because of psychological differences between loving-kindness and compassion. Participants (N = 116) are randomly assigned to two conditions, compassion meditation for self and positive others, respectively. The results of experiment 1 show that dislike of loving-kindness meditation for self seems to high when people have high shame, but shame does not have an influence on engagement. For loving-kindness meditation for positive others, shame seems to not affect on dislike and engagement about loving-kindness meditation instruction. The results of experiment 2 show that dislike is higher for self than for positive others about compassion meditation for people with high shame, but shame does not affect on engagement. For discussion, it is suggested that shame has special features of emotion. For the future, we discuss the therapeutic strategy for people with negative self-concept.

송배전용 설비에 사용되는 애자의 신뢰성은 전기적인 절연성질과 기계적인 내구성 뿐만 아니라 애자가 설치된 송전선로의 오손에 의한 내환경성에 의해서도 결정될 수 있다. 지금까지 염분 및 분진이 심한 지역에서 오손물이 애자에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구는 전기적, 기계적 신뢰성에 영향을 미치는 오손물질의 성분 분석 등을 통해 저압과 고압의 환경에서 진행되어 왔다.[1] 본 논문에서는 2003년부터 우리나라에서 운전해 오고 있는 765kV 애자오손 신뢰성 검토와 미국 전력연구원(EPRI)에서 수탁받은 765kV 고분자애자 특성연구의 일환으로, 765kV 상용선로에 사용되는 애자류에 대한 장기열화특성을 연구하기 위해 765kV 실증 시험설비를 구축하였다. 아울러, 765kV 애자 장기열화특성 분석을 위한 기초연구로 염분 및 분진 오손도를 측정하여 765kV 환경에서 애자종류에 따른 오손 특성을 검토하였다. 그 결과, RTV 실리콘고무 코팅 애자가 자기 및 유리재 애자에 비해 염분 오손도 면에서 비교적 우수한 특성을 지님을 확인 할 수 있었다.
