Recently, attention has been drawn to a new form of a public library, that is, a public library in a complex facility constructed in the same building or site with another facility. To get active users' or local governments' supports in the public library in a complex facility, it is necessary to build library strategic plans based on the analysis of users' evaluation and demands. Thus, this study analyzed the user satisfaction and perception of the 28 public libraries in complex facilities in Seoul. As a result, it was found that most users overall satisfied with public libraries in complex facilities in terms of human resources, information resources, and the links among services and positively perceived their environments and services. In order to provide more satisfaction to the users in public libraries in complex facilities first, it is necessary to improve the accessibility of libraries, to secure the sufficient library space, to prevent the outside noise, to link the facilities which bring mutual synergistic effect, and to develop a program and service accompanying other facilities.

Prior research suggested that people generally show stronger intentions to help in-group members because people experience higher levels of empathy for those who are similar to themselves. The present research demonstrated that one's levels of cosmopolitanism would moderate the mediating role of empathy on the relationship between cultural similarities and helping intentions. In particular, it was examined how the mediator (empathy) affected the relation between cultural similarity and helping intention for participants with low to high levels of cosmopolitanism. Results indicated that participants with lower levels of cosmopolitanism showed stronger empathy as targets are more culturally similar to participants' own culture. Participants with higher levels of cosmopolitanism, however, reported the same levels of empathy regardless of targets' cultural similarity. The implications and limitations of the results were discussed.

The present study was carried out to investigate the effects of career identity and social support on the career decision-making self-efficacy of women who have experienced career interruption. Furthermore, the aim was to seek effective measures for making a career decision for the successful re-employment of women with a break in their career. From March $3^{rd}$ to April $2^{nd}$, 2018, a survey was conducted targeting 380 career-interrupted, married women with age between 30-50 years and with work experience of more than six months. The selected subjects had received 1-9 months of beauty education from various vocational training institutes, beauty academies, and women's center in Seoul and Gyeonggi region. A total of 361 questionnaires were used for final analysis. The SPSS Program for data analysis, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, exploratory factor analysis, factor analysis, frequency analysis, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis were employed for the study. The results of this study are as follows. It was apparent that the establishment of a career identity and social support could play important roles in creating a relation with new career decisions for re-employment. Thus, this study aims to provide basic data necessary for the successful career preparation in women with career interruption.

This study aims to conduct a music psychotherapy program on North Korean child defectors, who are experiencing acculturative stress, and to discover the effects of the program on the participants' acculturative stress. This study targeted four North Korean child defectors, who belonged to an H afterschool class in Seoul and performed the program in individual sessions for about 40 minutes per session, totaling 14 sessions. The research results include the following. First, after comparing the results of acculturative stress score that measured before and after the execution of the music psychotherapy program, the mean of the score was significantly decreased from 32.75 to 23 average. Furthermore, as a result of conducting a qualitative analysis of the lingual responses that the participants demonstrated in musical activity, in relation to acculturative stress, the participants were found to experience a positive change. These results imply that the music psychotherapy program offers consistent support through music to North Korean Child Defectors, who are cowering psychologically and experiencing difficulty in adaptation, and reinforces inner resources through their positive self-perception, which indicates that it can be an effective mediation in reducing their acculturative stress.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the ways to improve the performance of SVM (Support Vector Machines) text classifier using inter-document similarities. SVMs are powerful machine learning systems, which are considered as the state-of-the-art technique for automatic document classification. In this paper text categorization via SVMs approach based on feature representation with document vectors is suggested. In this approach, document vectors instead of index terms are used as features, and vector similarities instead of term weights are used as feature values. Experiments show that SVM classifier with document vector features can improve the document classification performance. For the sake of run-time efficiency, two methods are developed: One is to select document vector features, and the other is to use category centroid vector features instead. Experiments on these two methods show that we can get improved performance with small vector feature set than the performance of conventional methods with index term features.

This study examined the factors affecting the performance of automatic classification based on machine learning for domestic journal articles in the field of LIS. In particular, In view of the classification performance that assigning automatically the class labels to the articles in "Journal of the Korean Society for Information Management", I investigated the characteristics of the key factors(weighting schemes, training set size, classification algorithms, label assigning methods) through the diversified experiments. Consequently, It is effective to apply each element appropriately according to the classification environment and the characteristics of the document set, and a fairly good performance can be obtained by using a simpler model. In addition, the classification of domestic journals can be considered as a multi-label classification that assigns more than one category to a specific article. Therefore, I proposed an optimal classification model using simple and fast classification algorithm and small learning set considering this environment.

Purpose - The importance of customer experiences has been increasing in retail industry as wells as theme park industry. The purpose of this research is to investigate relationships among brand experience, customer perceived value and brand support behavior in theme park industry. Furthermore, we tried to examine the moderating effects of interaction with customers in the relationships between brand experience and customer perceived value. Besides, we provided some implications for not only the theme park industry but also other service industries such as retail industry. Research design, data, and methodology - The research model has nine hypotheses, and we examined them empirically in this study. Five hypotheses were about relationships among theme park brand experiences, customer perceived value, and brand support behavior. The other four hypotheses were about the moderating effects of customer interactions in the causal relationship between brand experiences and customer perceived value. A total of 167 samples who had visited the theme park were surveyed and the hypotheses were tested with the statistical package programs such as SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 21.0. Results - The results of this study are as follows. First, it was proved that theme park visitors' sensory experience, emotional experience, and cognitive experience have significant positive effects on perceived value, although the hypothesis about the causal relationship between behavioral experience and perceived value is not supported. Second, the customer perceived value has a positive effect on brand support behavior. Third, customer interaction has a positive moderating effect between brand experiences and perceived value, except for behavioral experience. Conclusions - Based on the results of this study, there can be following significances and implications from both theoretical and practical perspectives. First, we confirmed the importance of experiential marketing in other service industries such as retail industry as well as the theme park industry. The marketing managers in these industries need to design various experience programs considering the various characteristics of experiences such as sensory, emotional, and cognitive experiences. Second, it will be necessary for the theme park managers to encourage active participation of customers, and raise the level of interaction between employees and customers.

Two experiments were conducted to examine the role of Kulja and morpheme in processing two-syllable Sino-Korean words. In Experiment 1, the effects of morphemic frequency were not significant at the initial and final positions of a word while Kulja frequency and Kulja-morpheme correspondence at both positions in a word had a significant impact on the processing of nonwords. Lexical decision times were longer for nonwords with high frequency Kulja and for nonwords with ambiguous Kulja-morpheme correspondence whose Kulja can go with many different morphemes. In Experiment 2 Kulja-morpheme correspondence was examined for words as well as nonwords. Lexical decisions were slower for stimuli with ambiguous Kulja-morpheme correspondence. The effect was more stable for nonwords, which replicated the result of Experiment 1. In sum, the results of this study suggest that words with ambiguous Kulja-morpheme correspondence activate many different morphemes and competition among these morphemic candidates slows down the lexical selection process. Kulja frequency, Kulja neighborhood, morphemic frequency, morphological neighborhood, and Kulja-morpheme correspondence in Korean word recognition were also discussed.

This study examined the effects of emotional content on the encoding process of emotional stimuli and the effects of emotional context on those of neutral stimuli. It was examined whether the superior memory of emotional stimuli is due to attentional resource allocation. This study were performed an emotional picture and a neutral word were presented in succession at every trials. The results of recognition judgement showed superior memory of emotional pictures than neutral pictures, but showed poorer memory of neutral words in emotional context than those in neutral context. LPC(Late Positive Complex) of ERP results showed the similar pattern: higher amplitude by emotional pictures than neutral pictures, and lower amplitude by neutral words in emotional context than those in neutral context. This result is considered to support attention allocation hypothesis.
