When people feel powerless (with losing control), they show compensatory behaviors to get out of this state. The actions to compensate for powerlessness have been studied in the contexts of products or brands, but this study focuses on compensatory behaviors when using social media. Social media, which can express consumers' selves freely, has become a platform for self-expansion. It has been confirmed that the possibility of relieving psychological powerlessness through self-expression on social media exists. Therefore, we examined how people who felt powerless showed compensatory behaviors on social media. According to the analysis, consumer's powerlessness does not directly affect narcissistic self-expression on social media. However, it is derived as being fully mediated by the feeling of anxiety. The more anxious consumers feel, the more narcissistic they express themselves by posting photos of themselves with luxury brand objects that can show social power or authority. In other words, when consumers experience social powerlessness coupled with anxiety, they are likely to show compensatory consumption behaviors such as narcissistic self-expression in order to make their images cool and luxurious and draw others' attention on social media. We confirm that the compensatory consumption due to consumers' powerlessness, which leads to having anxiety, can appear in ways of presenting narcissistic selves on social media.

최근 신생창업가의 네트워킹 활동이 성공적인 창업을 좌우한다는 선진연구 가능성이 주목받는 가운데, 본 연구는 창업가의 인지적 특성인 자아효능감과 심리적 특성인 모호성 인내가 네트워킹 활동에, 그리고 네트워킹 활동의 구성요소들이 기업성과에 미치는 영향에 대해 탐색적으로 연구하는데 그 주된 목적으로했다. 창업한지 3년 미만의 신생벤처기업의 창업가 156명의 설문지 응답을 표본으로 검증하였다. 연구결과, 첫째, 창업가의 자아효능감은 네트워킹과 창업성과에 각각 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 모호성 인내는 네트워킹과 창업성과에 모두 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 분석되었다. 셋째, 네트워킹 활동은 창업성과에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 네트워킹 활동의 구성요소 중 네트워크 빈도와 신뢰는 창업성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는데 반해, 네트워크 범위는 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 창업기업의 성과향상을 위해서는 창업가의 심리적 특성 보다는 인지적 특성인 자아효능감이 더 중요하다고 볼 수 있다. 또한 신생벤처 창업가의 네트워킹 활동의 경우 네트워크의 범위를 무리하게 확장하는 것은 기업성과 향상에 부정적 영향을 초래할 수 있다는 실무적 시사점과 함께 연구한계 및 연구방향을 제시하고 있다

Mobile phone media have extended the terrain of human communication. Starting from the notion of McLuhan, this study suggests that the extension of human communication is a concept of multiple dimension, such as 'extension of function' and 'extension of ego' Mobile phone speed the pare and efficiency of life, but also allow more flexibility at business and professional levels as well as family and personal life. On the other hand, mobile phone is also conceived as a personality kit, that is as a symbol of user's identity. So we ran classify the mobile phone users as a typology of motivation. Group I, entitled 'hyper-coordination', has high instrumental and high expressive motivation. Group II(='instrumental') is high instrumental but low expressive. Group III(='expressive') is low instrumental and high expressive, and Group IV(='minimal') is low in both instrumentality and expressiveness of mobile phone use. Then would the hyper-coordination group have different usage pattern with the other groups? A sample of 482 university students completed survey questionnaire. , which states hyper-coordination group would most frequently make calls and text, and have largest extensity and variety of usage, is supported statistically. states that hyper-coordination group would have larger and deeper social network than the other groups. This hypothesis is also supported with statistics.

This study explores how social media influences individual's social development and well-being. Social media is discussed as an effective tool when individuals lacking social and psychological resources are trying to expand their social networks. This study focuses on the social media use of North Korean defectors, who, in general, have closed social media networks in the South Korean society. This study tries to analyze empirically the effect of social media use on North Korean defectors' satisfaction with our society. In particular, this study focuses on how the use of social media influences satisfaction with their life in South Korea at different levels of their emotional states. This study explores that the relationship between social media and satisfaction with their life in South Korea varies based upon the degree of self-esteem and anxiety. This study expects that social media might provide greater benefits for those who are experiencing low self-esteem and high anxiety. In addition, this study conducts the same analysis for the general public and then compares its results with the survey on North Korean defectors. According to the results of North Korean defectors' survey, the impact of social media use on satisfaction with their life in South Korea was greater for those with high anxiety than for those with low anxiety. Meanwhile, the impact was greater for those with high self-esteem than for those with low self-esteem.
