The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of individual cultural disposition on the perception of contextual information and attitude toward contextual material, and to provide the effective ways of delivering information. To investigate individual cultural disposition, this study employed Triandis(1988)'s cultural scale that classified people into four categories using individualism/collectivism and vertical/horizontal dimensions. The results revealed that Korean college students had higher horizontal collectivism than other cultural dispositions, but only a few Korean college students had vertical individualism. The results using regression analysis revealed that Korean college students with vertical collectivism significantly perceived more contextual information than other groups.

경기 침체와 더불어 고용 불안, 그에 따른 사회의 혼란 속에서 국가의 성장 동력의 대안 중 하나로 창업 활성화의 요구가 높아지고 있다. 우리나라를 비롯한 많은 국가에서 창업 활성화를 중장기 목표로 설정하고 다방면으로 노력하고 있다. 이에 따라 창업의도를 높일 수 있는 요인에 대한 연구가 진행되어 왔고, 특히 자기효능감과 창업기회인식 등의 개인적 역량 요소가 창업의도를 높인다는 연구 결과들이 지속적으로 제시되고 있다. 이러한 창업의도를 높일 수 있는 자기효능감, 창업기회인식을 고취시키기 위해 학계의 연구활동 뿐 아니라 정부의 정책적 접근 또한 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 창업교육 활성화부터 사회적 환경 조성을 위한 창업 롤모델 활용, 미디어를 통한 창업 활동 홍보 등 긍정적인 창업 경험을 공유하도록 하기 위한 연구 역시 계속되고 있다. 그러나 개인적 역량 요소와 사회적 환경 조성 외에 문화적 특성이 창업의도에 영향을 미치는지에 대한 연구는 부족하였다. 본 연구는 문화적 특성이 창업의도를 높일 수 있는 요인으로 개인적 역량 요소와 사회적 환경 조성과 함께 의미가 있을 것이라는 물음에서 시작하였다. 가설 검증을 위하여 SPSS 26버전을 활용하여 로지스틱 회귀분석 하였고 GEM KOREA의 2017년 데이터를 분석하였으며, 자기효능감과 창업기회인식은 창업의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 기존 연구 동일한 결과가 나왔다. 본 연구의 특징은 문화적 특성을 집단주의와 관계주의로 구분하여 자기효능감, 창업기회인식과 창업의도에 영향을 미치는 과정에서의 조절효과를 검증하였다는 것이다. 문화적 특성 중 집단주의 특성은 유의하지 않았으나 관계주의 특성이 유의하여 조절효과를 가진다는 결과를 얻어냈다. 이는 국가에 새로운 성장 동력이 필요한 상황에서 창업의도가 없거나 낮은 개인들도 관계주의 특성을 활용하여 창업의도를 높일 수 있다는 연구 결론으로 이어진다. 지금까지 알려진 바와 달리 한국은 집단주의 보다 관계주의가 강하기 때문에 관계주의 문화 특성을 고려하여 선배 창업가 또는 로컬 창업가들과의 관계를 만들고 유지할 수 있도록 하는 등의 정책을 수립할 필요가 있다는 것을 시사한다. 하지만 이미 설계된 GEM 데이터를 활용하였다는 점, 문화적 특성이 각기 다른 국가들과의 비교연구가 필요하다는 점 등은 본 연구의 한계라고 할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the causal relationship of related variables in order to promote entrepreneurship, which is one way to support the economic independence and stable settlement of North Korean defectors. This study is firstly to examine the influence of individualism and collectivism on entrepreneurial intentions, and secondly, to examine the mediating effect of social adaptability in the relationship between socialist value system and entrepreneurial intention. To this end, a survey was conducted on North Korean defectors, and the empirical analysis target was 223 North Korean defectors. For the verification of the causal relationship between personal disposition and entrepreneurial intention, and the causal relationship between value system and entrepreneurial intention PLS was used. And PROCESS for SPSS Macro was used to verify the mediating effect of social adaptation in the relationship between the value system and entrepreneurial intention. Looking at the results of the empirical analysis, the extraversion factor was found to have a positive effect on the entrepreneurial intention level of North Korean defectors, and the self-fulfillment desire factor was found to have a positive effect on the entrepreneurial intention. It was also found that individualist values have a positive effect on the entrepreneurial intentions of North Korean defectors, and collectivist values do not have a significant effect on the entrepreneurial intentions. As a result of examining the mediating effect of social adaptability between individualism/collectivism and entrepreneurial intention in this study, it was found that individualist value has a direct impact on entrepreneurial intention without engaging social adaptability.

This study aimed to investigate the interactive effects of individual's cultural disposition (individualism, collectivism, horizontal disposition and vertical disposition) and cognitive style (analytic vs. holistic thinking) combination on differences in global precedence. For this purpose, the participants were divided into 4 different cultural disposition groups based on Singelis et al.'s(1995) INDCOL scale, and 2 cognitive style groups based on Choi et al.'s(2007) AHS, and required to respond selectively to global or local property of two types of compound stimuli (compound figure and compound letter). Reaction time and error rates for both global or local property were analyzed and compared as the dependent measurement. The results can be summarized as followings. First, faster responses were observed in compound figure condition than in compound letter condition, and to global property than to local property. Second, contrasting to individualism-cognitive style or horizontal disposition-cognitive style combinations, significant interaction effects both between collectivism and cognitive style, and between vertical disposition and cognitive style on global/local processing were found. This result indicated that combinations of collectivism-holistic thinking and vertical disposition-holistic thinking can induced larger global precedence effect than other combinations of cultural disposition and cognitive style.

This study examined how drivers of different cultural orientations(individualism vs. collectivism) attribute the cause(dispositional vs. situational) of four simulated driving situations which were varied in types(cutting-in and sudden-stop by the other driver) and differential emphasis on other the other driver's driving attitude or situational factor. The results showed the followings. First, the drivers generally showed higher attribution scores on the dispositional factor than the situational factor, except for the 'sudden-stop: situation emphasis' scenario condition. Second, when drivers' cultural orientation and attribution styles were considered together, it was found that, except for the 'cutting-in: disposition emphasis' scenario condition. the drivers of collectivism tended to attribute more to situational factor than the drivers of individualism, In contrast, the drivers of individualism showed higher attribution scores on dispositional factor than situational factor in all driving scenario conditions. Implication and suggestion were discussed.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the reliability and validity of the Korean version of the zero-sum belief scale among a sample of Korean adults. The original scale was developed by Różycka-Tran, Boski, and Wojciszke (2015) based on the Belief in a Zero-Sum Game (BZSG) model. A total of 508 participants (252 college students and 256 non-student adults) completed an online survey comprised of the scales of zero-sum belief, social trust, subjective socioeconomic status, individualistic-collectivistic tendencies, and social comparison orientation. Results of the exploratory factor analysis and the confirmatory factor analysis indicated that zero-sum belief scale has one factor. The internal consistency of the zero-sum belief scale was good. The Zero-sum belief scale did not have a significant relationship with social trust and subjective socioeconomic status. However, the scale was positively associated with vertical individualistic and vertical collectivistic tendencies and negatively associated with horizontal collectivistic tendencies. There was no significant relationship between zero-sum belief and horizontal individualistic tendencies, but there was a significant positive relationship between zero-sum belief and social comparison orientation. However, the results from the college student sample and the non-student adult sample were different. Lastly, this study could facilitate future research on zero-sum belief in South Korea, and future studies are needed to reveal the predictors and effects of zero-sum belief.

The study examined moderating role of thinking style about causality in the relationship between the perceived brand globalness(PBG) and the brand evaluation. Thinking style about causality is divided into interactionism and dispositionism. Individualism culture shows a tendency of thinking style about causality to dispositionism, and collectivist cultures shows a tendency for interactionism. We conducted a survey on Korean college students who represent collectivist cultures and foreign students from countries of individualistic culture and analyzed data through structural equation modeling. Analysis result showed that the higher the respondents perceived PBG, the higher they perceived brand quality, brand quality, and brand price. However, it showed that PBG has greater positive effects on perceived brand quality and perceived brand reputation among Korean students than students from individualistic cultures. On the other hand, the effects of PBG on perceived brand price did not show any significant difference between Korean students and students from individualist cultures. Thus, we can conclude that thinking style about causality plays a moderating role in the relationship between PBG and perceived brand quality and brand reputation, while it does not do so between PBG and perceived brand price.
