With recognition of the self-leadership and creative personality for developing student competitive capability, this study examines the relationships among self-leadership, creative personality, innovative behaviour and learning satisfaction based on survey data from university students. The main findings of the study are as follows: first, the study found that self-leadership was positively associated with creative personality while there was also a positive relationship between self-leadership and innovative behaviour as well as learning satisfaction. Second, the empirical analysis of the paper also shows that creative personality partially mediated the relationship of self-leadership and innovative behaviour, but not for the relationship between self-leadership and learning satisfaction. In addition, the hypothesis on the positive association between learning satisfaction and innovative behaviour was not supported. This paper contributes to our understanding of self-leadership and innovative behaviour research by expanding to university student context and highlighting the role of creative personality. This study proposes that developing the self-leadership and creative personality of student are required for better innovative behaviour and thereby, learning performance.

This paper investigates the relationship between R&D professionals' career plateau and organizational commitment in which career plateau's sub-dimensions consist of structural and job-content plateau. Further, it aims to examine the moderating effect of age and creative behavior of R&D professionals on the relationship between career plateau and organizational commitment. Empirical data were collected from 418 R&D professionals who work for Government sponsored research institutions. The results showed that the relationship between structural plateau and organizational commitment is differently related depending on age level. That is, the negative relationship between structural plateau and organizational commitment is stronger for junior R&D professionals. Furthermore, the relationship between job-content plateau and organizational commitment is negatively related, and differs in the strength depending on the creative behavior level of R&D professionals. For one with stronger characteristics of creative behavior, job-content plateau is more negatively related to organizational commitment. Based on the results, some implications are suggested on the career plateau issues of R&D professionals who work for government sponsored research institutions. Finally, it is discussed on the limitations of this study and further research directions.

In this study, a research model was established and analyzed in order to examine how the characteristics of organizational culture affect the innovation behavior of employees. This study divided the characteristics of organizational culture into development, stability, and rationality as sub-factors, and conducted a study on the relationship between characteristics of organizational culture and innovation behavior. This study also attempted to confirm whether creative efficacy mediates between the characteristics of organizational culture and innovation behavior. To this end, the data collection was targeted to 80 members of the organization in the company, and the SPSS and PLS programs were used to analyze the collected data. As a result of hypothesis testing, only stability among the characteristics of organizational culture had a significant direct effect on innovation behavior. These results can be interpreted as meaningful results in a study between the characteristics of organizational culture and the innovation behavior of employees. In addition, creative efficacy was found to significantly mediate the influence of organizational cultural characteristics (development, stability, and rationality) on employees' innovation behavior. We suggest that companies should focus on forming an organizational culture in terms of internal stability perceived by employees, and lead employees' innovation behavior to create organizational performance. We propose that companies should create an organizational culture so that the characteristics of the organizational culture (development, stability, rationality) increase the creative efficacy of the employees and lead to the innovation behavior of the employees.

The purpose of this study were to develop a rating scale for screening preschoolers' creative characteristics and to examine the validity and reliability of this scale. The subjects were 85 4-5 year olds, their mothers, and teachers in Seoul. The preliminary scale of the Rating Scale for Creative Characteristics of Preschoolers(RSCCP)'was developed as a 47-item 5-point rating scale and consisted of 5 factors. 5 factors. 5 factors were 'uniqueness=-curiosity', 'openness-humor', 'sensitivity-many interest', 'imagination-playfulness', and 'independence-perseverance'. The inter-correlations among the 5 factors ranged from .31-.71. For the criterion validity, Wallach & Kogan's Creativity Test(Foster, 1971) and children's drawing were used, and for the convergence validity, the scores rated by mothers and the scores rated by leachers were compared. Test-retest reliability was .69 and Cronbach's ${\alpha}$ ranged from .76-.90. There found no significant correlations between the RSCCP scale and the 2 criterion tests, and the paired t-test for the total scores of the scale rated by the mothers and the teachers showed no differences.

본 연구에서는 종사자의 핵심자기평가가 창의적 행동 및 서비스생산성에 미치는 영향에 대하여 분석해 보았으며 실제 대표적 서비스기업인 항공운송업 종사자들을 대상으로 한 실증분석으로 시행하였다. 연구 결과를 요약해 보자면 신경증을 제외한 핵심자기평가는 창의적 행동에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있으며, 창의적 행동은 또한 서비스생산성에 유의한 양(+)의 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있다. 한편 인구통계학적 특성에 기한 차이는 자아효능감의 경우 나이가 적을수록 평균값이 높게 나타나고 있으며 나이가 많아질수록 적어지는 것을 볼 수 있다. 이러한 현상은 통상적인 것이라 볼 수 있겠으나 요는 이러한 현상을 극복할 수 있는 방안에 대해 강구할 필요가 있으며 주로 임금인상이나 복지증진 등의 유인책을 활용해 보는 것이 바람직하다 할 것이다. 한편 신경증과의 관계에서 봤을 때 26-30세 정도에 급격히 증가하는 점을 볼 때 이 시기에 업무 관련 시행착오 혹은 업무에 대한 과오 등에 대한 중압감이 작용하는 것으로 볼 수 있으며 이러한 중압감에 기하여 업무에 소극적이 되지 않도록 할 필요성이 제기된다고 하겠다.

In this study, we investigated students' behavioral characteristics in the process of and their responses to scientific creativity activities developed based on the three steps of learning model (Park, Park, & Lee, 2008) and scientific creativity model (Park, 2004). Students' responses were obtained by questionnaire, effectiveness of learning materials was explored by comparing students activities before and after the second step, 'Guide', and various characteristic behaviors were obtained through video-recording of their activities. As results, students answered that even though the activities were a little difficult, the activities were nonetheless interesting to them, and they wanted to do the activities more completely, and wanted them in future courses. It was also found that the second step activity was helpful in improving students' divergent thinking. Finally, from the findings about various students' behavioral characteristics, some practical recommendations for more effective teaching of scientific creativity were suggested.

The purpose of the study was to verify validity of Creative School Environment Perceptions (CSEP) scale developed based on the scale developed in 2010 by Mayfield and Mayfield. Factor analysis was used to assess construct validity. Another purpose of the study was to investigate factors related to students' perception of creative school environment through use of the group differences. The research participants were 203 elementary school students and all of them were 5th and 6th grade students. Factor analysis indicated that CSEP scale consist of three factors: creativity support, work characteristics, and creativity blocks. In addition the correlation between CSEP scale and the previous scale were investigated to verify the validity of CSEP scale. The results showed that the convergent validity were obtained. Independent-sample t test was performed to test for specific loci of significant between group differences in gender, grade, and the level of ideational behavior. The finding showed that 6th grade students said that their environment hinder creativity. Students with the high level of ideational behavior perceived their school environment was supportive while students with the low level of ideational behavior perceived their school environment was obstructive. Therefore teachers should understand students' perception of creative school environment using CSEP scale and should change students' perception of creative school environment through considering grade and the level of ideational behavior.
