Intimate friendships and a sense of belonging have positive effects on adolescent's psychological adaptation. Belongingness orientation is the motivation to belong. It is divided into growth orientation and deficit-reduction orientation, both of which have different effects on psychological adaptation and interpersonal characteristics. This study was conducted to determine how adolescents' belongingness orientation affected their psychological adaptation and friend networks. Students in their second year of middle school were surveyed both at the beginning and end of the spring semester. Friend networks were measured through network centrality analysis. Multilevel regression analysis produced three major results. The first major result was that the correlations between growth orientation and loneliness and between growth orientation and stress at the beginning of the spring semester was statistically significant even when friend network centrality was included in the analysis model, but the correlation between deficit-reduction orientation and loneliness and between deficit-reduction orientation and stress were not statistically significant. The second major result was that growth orientation significantly predicted friend network centrality at the end of the spring semester. This effect was significant even when friend network centrality at the beginning of the semester and psychological adaptation level at the end of the spring semester were added to the analysis model. The third major result was that the correlation between friend network centrality at the end of the semester and psychological adaptation level was statistically significant even when psychological adaptation levels at the beginning and the end of the semester were included in the analysis model. This study is meaningful in that it had a short-term longitudinal design and empirically demonstrated the relationship between belongingness orientation and psychological adaptation level of adolescents and between belongingness orientation and the development of friend networks. Lastly, we discussed limitations of this study and provided suggestions for future research.

With the development of information technologies and the wide spread of smart devices, the number of users of social network services has increased exponentially. Studies that identify user preferences and recommend similar users in these social network services have been actively done. In this paper, we propose a new scheme to recommend social network friends with similar preferences through the moving pattern analysis of mobile users. The proposed scheme removes the meaningless trajectories via companions, short time trajectories, and repeated trajectories to determine the correct user preference. The proposed scheme calculates user similarity using the meaningful trajectories and recommends users with similar preferences as friends. It is shown through performance evaluation that the proposed scheme outperforms the existing schemes.

The purpose of this study is to suggest reading education plan by exploring the characteristics of peer-relationship networks of elementary school students, and grasping the effects of those characteristics on the reading competencies. Social network analysis method was used, and centrality analysis, QAP correlation and QAP multiple regression analyses were conducted to examine the relationship between peers and reading competencies. The findings show that the help relationship rather than peer characteristics and friend relationship was related to reading competencies. However, since the friend relationship has an effect on the help relationship, it is also found that the relationship between the friend and the help relationship network should be considered in order to improve the reading competencies. This network analysis results are meaningful in reading education plan in the sense that they suggest a useful guideline for the formation of members ranging from individuals, small groups, to a whole class, and for periodical activities considering situation and learning purposes such as before, during, and after reading activities.

온라인 상에서 불특정 타인과 관계를 맺을 수 있는 서비스로 소셜 네트워크 서비스(Social Network Service : SNS)가 새롭게 떠오르고 있다. 1990년대에 등장한 SNS는 최근에는 스마트폰을 이용한 모바일 서비스로 인해 이용자의 수가 급격히 늘어나고 있다. SNS에서는 '친구 찾기' 라는 서비스를 제공하는데, 이는 이용자의 개인정보를 분석하여 이용하여 친구를 찾아주는 서비스이다. 기존의 '친구 찾기' 서비스는 이용자가 제공하는 정보만을 다른 이용자의 정보와 비교하여 친구를 찾았다. 그러나 이용자가 제공하는 정보는 한정적이기 때문에 비교할 수 있는 정보의 양도 한정되어 찾을 수 있는 친구의 수에도 한계가 생긴다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 단순한 개인정보 비교를 통한 친구를 찾는 방법이 아닌 이용자가 제공하는 시공간 데이터를 활용하여 추론을 통해 친구를 추천해주는 시스템을 설계하고 구현한다.

The purpose of the study is to structure the friendship network by the social network analysis and investigate the effects of social network centrality and learners' performances in college students. Both the in-degree centrality of 1st grade class study-network(t=2.722, P<.005) and the in-degree centrality of and $2^{nd}$ grade class study-network(t=2.708, P<.005)are predicted the individual student's learning performances. But there is no correlation between the in-degree centrality of $1^{st}$ and $2^{nd}$ grade class entertainment-network and the individual student's learning performances. Results of the study suggested the significant effect of social network analysis measures on learners' performance in the friendship networks. Based on the results, implication to the teaching strategy and future research direction were discussed.

The purpose of this study is to empirically compare statistical models for pre-service teachers' help networks. We identified similarities and differences based on the results of the binary and valued ERGM. Research questions are as follows: First, what are the similarities of factors influencing the binary/valued help network for pre-service teachers? Second, what are differences of factors influencing the binary/valued help network for pre-service teachers? We measured 42 pre-service teachers with focus on their help and friend networks, happiness, and personal characteristics. Results indicated that, first, the similar factors influencing the binary and valued help network of pre-service teachers were local dependencies (reciprocity, transitivity), similarity (major, gender), activity (early childhood education, negative emotion), popularity (early childhood education) and multiplicity (friend network). Second, the difference between factors affecting pre-service teacher's binary and valued help network was the effect of activity (physical education) and popularity (GPA, negative emotion). Based on these findings, we presented implications.

본 연구는 소셜 네트워크에서 사용자간의 친밀도에 기반하여 보여주는 '친구추천' 이라는 방법을 그래프 클러스터링을 이용하여 접근하고자 한다. 기존의 방법과는 다르게 사용자에게 개인화된 선별 정보를 제공하는데 목적이 있다. 또한 일반적 클러스터링이 아닌 그래프 이론에 근거한 거리 계산을 기반으로 친화력 전파 모델(Affinity Propagation) 클러스터링 기법을 적용하는 방법을 제안한다. 이 방법으로 클러스터링을 진행하여 선별된 같은 그룹 안에 있는 개인화된 친구 추천을 효과적으로 수행할 수 있음을 입증하였다.

오피니언 마이닝은 웹에 있는 문서를 분석하여 작성자의 의견을 요약된 형태로 보여주는 기술이다. 오피니언 마이닝을 이용해 문서 작성자의 주관적 의견을 알 수 있고 이를 통해 작성자의 성향이나 관심사와 같은 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 많은 네티즌들은 소셜 네트워크 서비스를 통해 자신의 의견이 담긴 글을 타인과 공유 하며 네트워크상의 인맥을 넓혀 나간다. 오피니언 마이닝을 통해 개인이 작성한 글들을 분석하여 관심사를 파악하고 비슷한 관심사를 가진 친구를 추천하는 친구 추천 시스템을 제안한다.

Companies see a new business opportunity in the increased popularity of social network services and the related studies are also gaining more attention. This study attempted to analyze the social networks and thereby find a pattern in the use of social network services. Network users' pattern has been categorized by their purpose of use. Among various social network services, we selected the Facebook and its users were analyzed by a network analysis tool called NodeXL. In the end, several subgroups have been identified in a seemingly homogeneous network. Furthermore, the network shape differences according to the usage of social network services has been studied by comparing "friends" of an individual Facebook user with those of the K University Facebook page.
