This study seeks to verify how empathic concern and perspective-taking predict happiness by investigating the mediating effects of cognitive reappraisal. Online surveys about empathic concern, perspective-taking, cognitive reappraisal, and happiness were conducted by 336 adult subjects. First, the correlation analysis indicated that empathic concern and perspective-taking significantly predicted cognitive reappraisal and happiness, respectively. Second, cognitive reappraisal also significantly predicted happiness. Third, the cognitive reappraisal mediated the association between empathic concern and happiness and between perspective-taking and happiness. Specifically, people who emotionally and cognitively empathize with others reported higher levels of cognitive reappraisal, which allowed them to experience higher levels of happiness. These findings have confirmed that people can increase their happiness by enhancing cognitive reappraisal through emotional and cognitive empathy. Finally, the implications and limitations of the present research are discussed.

The Metaverse as a combination of physical and digital space, provides many consumers with a different process of search, evaluation, consumption, and disposal than before, based on hyper-connected and hyper-realistic services. Therefore, it is necessary to examine what kind of sensory experiences customers feel when performing various activities in the Metaverse and how these experiences affect customers' behavioral responses. This study measured the temporal and emotional experience of the Metaverse service environment felt during the Metaverse experience journey of customers experiencing medical tourism services. The results of the study showed that the emotional experience through Metaverse had a more positive impact on customer satisfaction and customer loyalty as the intensity of the Metaverse experience deepened. In particular, it was confirmed that the emotional experience at the end of the Metaverse service had a positive influence on repurchase behavior. These results show that, just as in the real world, customer experience in the Metaverse can provide important insight into understanding customers' post purchase behavior and how service providers can develop and implement effective customer experience strategies in the Metaverse environment.

우리 춤은 우리 고유의 정서를 담고 있는 종합예술이므로 우리 춤을 분석하고 이해하는 것은 큰 의미가 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 춤 동작의 정량적인 분석을 통한 감정인식 기술을 이용하여 우리 춤에 내포된 감정 패턴의 변화를 살펴본다. 먼저 한국 전통춤으로부터 무용전문가들의 정성적 분석에 기반하여 추출된 우리 춤사위를 정해진 각 감정별로 재구성하여 창작하고 창작된 우리 춤을 무용전문가가 시연한다. 이를 카메라를 이용하여 획득하고, 영상처리를 통해서 시연자의 실루엣을 뽑아낸 후, 정량적 특징량들을 추출한다. 이어 신경회로망을 이용하여 각 감정별 춤사위를 학습 시킨 후, 임의의 춤사위에 내포된 감정을 인식 한다. 본 논문에서는 정면, 좌, 우 세 시점에서 획득된 다시점 영상을 이용하여 학습시킴으로써 보다 안정적으로 동작하는 인식 시스템을 제안한다. 그리고, 시스템에 의해 인식된 감정 패턴과 변화의 정성적 의미를 이해하기 위해 무용전문가들에 의해 정립된 정성적 분석 결과와 비교, 분석한다. 이는 정성적인 분석에만 국한되던 우리 춤의 특성에 대한 이해를 객관적이고 정량화된 분석을 통한 이해의 차원으로 확장시키는 것으로, 우리 춤의 특성을 새롭게 정의하는 계기를 마련할 수 있다. 다양한 장르의 한국 전통춤 가운데 우리 춤을 대표할 수 있는 춤사위를 선정하고, 정성적/정량적으로 분석함으로써 우리 춤의 특성을 이해하기 위한 체계적인 틀을 제공하고자 한다.

A self-sufficiency service has worked as a typical workfare policy combined with public assistance in Korea since 2000. Despite of its long history, three core pillars in administrating the self-sufficiency service, policy, research, and practice, have respectively understood the meaning of self-sufficiency in terms of their own interests. As a result, the self-sufficiency service has recently faced with its own identity issues by showing failures to its environmental changes. The current situation makes it necessary to reconceptualize the definition of self-sufficiency by exploring its in-depth understanding perceived by service providers. Specifically, we analyzed practical reflections on 35 service providers' experiences which were collected via focus group interviews for two hours. The study findings presented that service providers had two antithetical approaches towards self-sufficiency. While a dominant approach to self-sufficiency has been concentrated on improving clients' economic outcomes such as employment, job retention, the escape from welfare trap, and increasing earnings and assets, the other approach has been extended to empower clients and achieve their well-being and quality of life. Yet, these contrary perspectives have led to suffer from their role confusions and identity crisis between the work-ready process and the employment-oriented outcomes. Specifically, they described self-sufficiency in terms of psychological, social, and integrated aspects. The psychological aspect included a process of developing inner strengths, intensifying job motivation, and coping with barriers of employment. The social aspect meant a path toward social integration through recovering human relationships. The integrated aspect covered more comprehensive support for their recovery of daily life and autonomy to make a decision for their own life. In conclusion, the study findings suggest that self-sufficiency should be more extensively considered as a stepwise process towards work-ready preparations beyond ultimate economic outcomes. Such an extended concept of self-sufficiency could contribute to restructuring the whole practice of self-sufficiency including organizational and program changes in the fields.
