As reliance on information and communication becomes widespread, a variety of information dysfunctions such as hacking, viruses, and the infringement of personal information are also occurring. Korean adolescents are especially exposed to an environment in which they are experiencing information dysfunction. In addition, youth cybercrimes are steadily occurring. To prevent cybercrime and the damage caused by information dysfunction, information security practices are essential. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to discuss the factors affecting the information security practices of Korean youths, considering information security education, perceived severity, and perceived vulnerability as leading factors of the theory of planned behavior. A questionnaire survey was administered to 118 middle and high school students. Results of the hypothesis test show that information security education affects perceived behavior control, and perceived severity affects attitude. Subjective norms, information security attitudes, and perceived behavioral control were found to influence adolescents' practices of information security. However, perceived vulnerabilities did not affect youths' information security attitudes. This study confirms that information security education can help youths to practice information security. In other words, information security education is important, and it is a necessary element in the information curriculum of contemporary youth. However, perceived vulnerability to youth information security threats did not affect information security attitudes. Consequently, we suggest that it is necessary to strengthen the contents of the information security education for Korean youths.

신체적 억제대 사용은 많은 논란이 되고 있음에도 불구하고 여전히 임상실무에서 환자안전사고 예방을 위해 입원 중인 환자에게 흔히 사용되고 있다. 따라서 미래의 간호사가 될 간호대학생이 생각하는 신체적 억제대 사용과 관련된 지식, 태도, 인식 및 간호실무 정도를 확인하고, 신체적 억제대 사용 관련 간호실무 예측 요인을 확인하기 위해 서술적 조사연구를 시행하였다. 자료 수집은 2020년 1월 2일부터 1월 20일까지 2곳의 간호대학생 144명을 대상으로 자가 보고식 설문지를 통해 시행되었다. 자료 분석은 기술적 통계, t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson correlation coefficients, multiple regression을 사용하였다. 연구결과 간호대학생의 신체적 억제대 사용에 대한 지식점수는 평균 11.55±2.81점, 태도점수는 평균 60.01±7.24점, 인식점수는 평균 59.97±10.68점, 간호실무 점수는 평균 38.04±4.15점 이었으며, 간호실무와 지식, 태도, 인식 모두 유의한 양의 상관관계가 있었다. 다중 회귀분석을 통한 신체적 억제대 사용과 관련된 간호실무에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 인식(β=.23, p=.005), 태도(β=.21, p=.009) 순으로, 이들 전체 변수의 설명력은 13%였다. 본 연구에서 신체적 억제대 사용 관련 간호실무에 가장 중요한 예측 요인은 신체적 억제대 사용에 대한 인식으로, 간호대학생이 신체적 억제대를 올바르게 인식하여 추후 간호사가 되었을 때 임상실무에서 올바르게 사용할 수 있도록 하기 위한 근거기반의 교육 중재 프로그램의 개발과 적용이 필요하겠다.

Teachers' beliefs about teaching English are reflected in their practices in the classroom. They influence on the students' attitude to English learning. Any teacher training program expects the trainees to change or modify their existing beliefs and attitude through the new ideas and information introduced by the program toward a desired direction. The present study describes a teacher training program for elementary school English teachers and compares the beliefs of the teachers about teaching English before and after the training. The subjects are the elementary school English teachers around Chungnam area who get a special training of 120 hours during January 1997. The investigation of the subjects' beliefs on English teaching is conducted through examining two journals of each subject before and after the training. The journals show the teachers' inner flow of thought, so teacher trainers are expected to get insight on their general instructional considerations and have implications on the future teacher training program through examining these journals. In addition, the journal writing itself gives the teachers opportunity to reflect their practice and rethink about their beliefs, and develop themselves as professional English teachers.

Purpose This study discusses the contradictory behavior of smart-phone users who consider security is important, but they do not follow the security recommendations. We found through literature research that this contradictory behavior is resulted from a low level of efficacy. Design/methodology/approach Research hypotheses were set based on Extended Parallel Process Model, Control Theory, and Self Efficacy Mechanism. The data were collected from undergraduate students. Total of 178 data were used for the analysis. Findings Results of the analysis, first, showed that the relationship between threat and security attitude varies with the level of coping efficacy. Second, showed that the relationship between threat and fear does not vary with the level of coping efficacy. Both the groups with high coping efficacy and low coping efficacy had a statistically significant effect on the relationship between threat and fear.

The study set out to identify the number of types of parental attitude profiles and their characteristics, as perceived by adolescents. The study also examined whether predictor variables (parent life satisfaction and self-esteem) influence parenting attitude profiles and whether these profiles, in turn, influence adolescent academic engagement and academic helplessness. The sample consisted of data on 2,590 adolescents and their parents from the 2018 Korean Children and Youths Panel Survey (KCYPS). The adolescents were in the first grade of middle school. Using Mplus, the author applied latent profile analysis to identify the parenting attitude profiles and predictor and outcome variables associated with these profiles. Three profiles were identified based on major features: (1) coercion-inconsistency (8.3%), (2) general (47.3%), and (3) warmth-autonomy support (44.4%). Parent life satisfaction and self-esteem predicted the classification of the profiles. Also, the parental profiles identified the level of adolescent academic engagement and academic helplessness. The findings have important implications for family policies and practices given the significance of parent psychological status, particularly life satisfaction and self-esteem, on their adolescent children's academic engagement and academic helplessness.
