This study aimed to identifying the mediating effects of motivation on the relationship between parent attachment and eating habit among nursing students. The survey participants was 125 college students. The data were analyzed using the SPSS/WIN 26.0 and AMOS 26.0 version program, using descriptive statistics, Pearson's correlation, and path analysis. Eating habit, parent attachment and autonomous motivation were positive correlations. Controlled motivation was positive correlations with autonomous motivation. Parent attachment directly positive related to autonomous motivation and eating habit. Autonomous motivation directly positive related to eating habit. Autonomous motivation has a mediating effects between parent attachment and eating habit (𝛽=.09, p=.003, 95% CI: 0.29~0.19). Therefore, further research is needed to develop and evaluate programs that include strengthening parental attachment and autonomous motivation.

This study was conducted to find ways to improve people's perceptions to prevent and detect breast cancer. Health belief model(HBM) was used to examine the relationship between. risk perception of breast cancer, and benefit perception, and information seeking. In addition, the role of autonomous motives was included in the model. The results shows that the more people perceived cancer as dangerous, or perceived cancer screeing as beneficial, the more likely they seek relavant health information. Also, high autonomous motives showed positive effects on info seeking. Information seeking behaviors also had a positive impact on health screening intentions.

In the context of knowledge sharing, network position has been a controversial subject. A central position in the network provides access to non-redundant knowledge, leading to more opportunities of knowledge sharing. On the other hand, as "bridging" relationships, its characteristics as a "weak tie" suggest innate lack of trust and reciprocity which is considered an impediment to share knowledge. This paper attempts to enlighten the underlying dynamic by examining the interaction between network centrality, motivation and ability in knowledge sharing. Furthermore, this paper examines the concept of knowledge sharing ability in depth by operationalizing the construct into three aspects: extensive and diverse knowledge, social media utilization ability and self-efficacy. The results show a partially supported three-way interaction, where the highest level of knowledge provision is reported when the employee has low network centrality, high autonomous motivation and high knowledge sharing ability, i.e. extensive and diverse prior knowledge. Though all models indicate strong associations between network centrality and knowledge sharing, this suggests an even greater power of motivation and ability that gives the strength to overcome unfavorable environments of peripheral position. Therefore, this paper offers an alternative explanation to the existing debate whether network centrality positively or negatively influences knowledge sharing.

This study applied self-determination theory to investigate the relationships between volunteers' perception of supervisors' autonomy support, volunteering motivation, and persistence intentions among collegiate students. Collegiate volunteers(n=515) involved in volunteer activities completed measures of supervisors' autonomy support, 5 forms regulation, and persistence intentions. Bivariate correlations indicated that volunteer motivation demonstrated an ordered pattern of relationships, such that adjunct points along the regulatory continuum would be more positively associated with on another than distal points. Analyses using structural equation modeling revealed that supervisors' autonomy support was positively related to more autonomous motivation(intrinsic motivation and identified regulation), while was natively associated with amotivation. Amotivation was negatively related with persistence intentions, and more autonomous motivations(intrinsic and identified) predicted grater intentions to continue with volunteer activity for next 6 months. The findings are discussed in light of the self-determination theory.

This study is a descriptive study to understand the effect on the health behavior compliance of men who got coronary intervention, focusing on the elapsed period. The subjects of this study were 249 men who underwent coronary intervention at a university hospital, and the collected data were analyzed using Stepwise multiple regression. As a result of the study, the influencing factors the implementation of healthy behaviors were self-regulation(β=0.35, p<.001), risk factors among educational request(β=-0.26, p<.001), and the elapsed period(β=0.19, p<.001), marital status(β=0.15, p=.001), educational level(β=-0.12, p=.035), and the total explanatory power was 29.1%. IIn order to increase the health behavior performance of male patients who underwent coronary intervention, it is necessary to develop a program that can strengthen the autonomous motivation of subjects with high severity and elapsed time of less than 1 year and more than 1 year.

Inspired by the synchronization phenomena observed in the Nature, we propose an autonomous load balancing method for a wireless network. We model the load balancing problem of cells providing wireless access services as a synchronization problem in the Nature and design an algorithm for each cell to distribute loads in a self-determining way based on the load differences among its neighbor cells. Through simulations, we verify the feasibility of the proposed method in that cell loads can be balanced efficiently eve if cells make decision autonomously using their local information.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate the difference of health behavior modification between male and female patients with cardiovascular disease; and to compare the predictors of health behavior between the male and female subjects. Methods: A comparative study design was used in the study. A total of 228 patients(male 114, female 114) with cardiovascular disease were recruited from outpatients clinics in 2 university hospitals in Korea. Data were analyzed using t-test, $X^2$, ANOVA, ANCOVA, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression with SPSS 20.0. Results: There was significant difference of health behavior between male and female patients with cardiovascular disease (F=9.45, p=0.002). The significant predictors of health behavior among male subjects were self-efficacy, perceived barriers, perceived susceptibility, medical support and autonomous motivation, accounting for 45%; the significant predictors of health behavior among female subjects were self-efficacy, medical support and autonomous motivation, accounting for 51%. Conclusions: It is suggested to take different health promotions strategies to maintain the performance of health behaviors among male and female patients with cardiovascular diseases.

Measured media education uses motivation, studies own effect academic self-efficacy, media competence and school achievement for this research. As analysis result, priority media education uses motive was 'teaching convenience/help sought', 'Information/education method picking up sought', 'new teaching/communication thoroughgoing sought', 'ability elevation pursuit', 'self-regulating education sought', 'up-to-dateness sought', 'New knowledge/education sought' of order. By next time, only 'new knowl edge/education sought' motive caused positive effect in studies own effect among media education uses motive. Among media education uses motive, 'teaching convenience/help sought', 'Information/education method picking up sought', 'New study/communication thoroughgoing sought', 'self-regulating education sought', 'up-to-dateness sought' motive caused positive effect in media competence. Also, it caused positive effect among media education uses motive 'self-regulating education sought' and 'new knowledge/education sought' in students' school achievement. Finally, 'academic self-efficacy' is 'media competence' more in school achievement influence. Media education influenced new teaching method and ability elevation to some students. But, academic self-efficacy and school achievement did not cause big effect students. However, media education influenced in some students' media competence elevation.

This paper investigates a synchronization algorithm for a distributed network which does not have a centralized infrastructure. In order to operate a distributed network, synchronization across distributed terminals should be acquired in advance, and hence, a plenty of distributed synchronization algorithms have been studied extensively in the past. However, most of the previous studies focus on the synchronization only in fault-free networks. Thus, if there are some malfunctioning terminals in the network, the synchronization can not be guaranteed with conventional distributed synchronization methods. In this paper, we propose a reliability-based adaptive consensus algorithm which can effectively acquire the synchronization across distributed terminals and confirm performance of the proposed algorithm by conducting numerical simulations.

In this article, a fairly extensive literature review was conducted to depict the current status of academic motivation and its developmental trend among Korean adolescents. The focal factors were perceived competence and autonomy which have been considered as major determinants of academic motivation. Theoretical frameworks adopted were self-efficacy theory, expectancy-value theory, and self-determination theory. Empirical studies conducted in Korean educational settings during the past decade were the target of the literature review. Results of the literature analysis revealed that, in general, there was a decreasing tendency in perceived competence from elementary to middle school which followed by a slight increase after entering high school. Similar trend revealed in the development of autonomous motivation, in that middle and high school students' intrinsic motivation levels were lower than that of the elementary groups. The amotivational tendency was increased as the grade level proceeded toward high school, which requires attention from educators. Discussion was followed in an attempt to provide plausible interpretations for this undesirable current status of Korean adolescents' academic motivation and to suggest implications for possible remedial actions both in pedagogical perspectives and students' well-being.
