The study was intended to explore the relevance of the variables below, assuming that the intolerance of uncertainty and dichotomous thinking would represent sequential serialized effects in the relationship between perfectionistic self-presentation and social anxiety. The data of this study were collected on questionnaire survey of 252 adult men and women in Seoul using perfectionistic self-presentation scale, social interaction anxiety scale, social phobia scale, intolerance of uncertainty scale and dichotomous thinkingI-30R as index, which results are as follow. First, intolerance of uncertainty and dichotomous thinking showed perfect mediation effects on the relationship between perfectionistic self-presentation and social anxiety. Intolerance of uncertainty and dichotomous thinking were identified as contributing factors to the development and preservation of social anxiety by perfectionistic self-presenters. Second, in the relationship between perfectionistic self-presentation and dichotomous thinking, intolerance of uncertainty showed mediation effect. And in the relationship between intolerance of uncertainty and social anxiety, dichotomous thinking showed mediation effect. This suggested that if tolerance of uncertainty was deficient, it was likely to lead to dichotomous thinking. And a dichotomous thinking has prompted or accelerated negative cognitive biases resulting from intolerance of uncertainty, triggering and deepening social anxiety. Lastly, the limitations of this study and future research direction were suggested.

The purpose of this study was to verify the effectiveness of the employee metacognition and it's positive effect on employee agility. Also it aims to investigate the mechanism through the cascading multi-mediating effect through the role breadth self-efficacy and learning agility in such a relationship. In order to solve the common-method bias, independent and dependent variables were measured with time lag, and the relationship between variables was clearly verified by applying the position and the length of time worked with the supervisor as control variables. In testing the hypothesis, 478 questionnaires collected from whom worked at the company has more than 300 office workers in various industries were analyzed. As the result, firstly metacognition had a significant positive(+) effect on employee agility. Second, role breadth self-efficacy was found to positively mediate the relationship between metacognition and employee agility. Third, learning agility was found to mediate metacognition and employee agility positively(+). Fourth, metacognition serially mediates role breadth self-efficacy and learning agility, and the positive(+) effect on employee agility was verified. In addition, metacognition had a greater effect on member agility when passing through role breadth self-efficacy and learning agility rather than the direct effect on employee agility.

The role of entrepreneurship has become important for the continuous growth (scale-up) of companies in a rapidly changing economic environment. However, research has focused mainly on business-oriented growth that emphasizes efficiency only.
