User enjoyment is a key factor to understand online and mobile game users' behaviors. This study aims to understand the differences between mobile and online games, and the differences between Korean and Chinese game users in terms of the perceived importance of user enjoyment elements. To use AHP (Analytic Hierarchical Process), we decompose user enjoyment into sub-elements; sensory enjoyment, content enjoyment, enjoyment of the achievement, and enjoyment of interaction. Though the empirical study and independent t-test, we can find that there are the differences in the perceived importance of user enjoyment elements between Korean and Chinese game players, and between mobile and online games. Chinese users more stress on enjoyment of interaction and Korean users more emphasize on enjoyment of the achievement.

First, the effective user research method for the analysis of the Chinese small apartment kitchen users was studied through the literature investigation. Second, the 6 families of a research target were selected focused on the small apartments in Shanghai, China and the user research was performed using three methods of User observation, Video ethnography, and Contextual inquiry. Third, the research results were analyzed focused on the flow of human traffic in the kitchen area and user's behaviors. What were identified as a result take account of the human traffic movements in the kitchen areas around the sink-counter-cook top, cooking behaviors and meal areas outside of the kitchen. Through this, the need for the effective organization of the sink-counter-cook top, arrangement of meal area, and placement of storage by section for the kitchen space of China were drawn based on the understanding of the cooking process, and it was identified that such results require comprehensive understanding of Chinese housing culture.

본 연구의 목적은 최근 중국 게임시장에서 인기 있는 온라인게임의 전통예술 표현 특징을 분석하는 것이다. 전통 중국문화의 미적 특징에 대한 플레이어의 심리 선호도를 반영하는 MMORPG 캐릭터를 디자인함으로써 플레이어가 게임을 즐기는 동시에 시각적 만족감을 느낄 수 있도록 하는 것이다. 최근 전통문화를 배경으로 제작한 중국 온라인게임은 많은 플레이어들에게 인기를 끌고 있지만, 외국게임업계의 중국 게임시장 진입에 따라 더욱 다원화된 방식으로 진행되고 있다. 이러한 현재의 중국 온라인 게임 환경을 고려하여 중국 MMORPG 중에서 고유한 전통예술 표현을 활용하는 전통 신화 무협 게임을 선택하고, 개인 플레이어를 반영하는 이상적인 캐릭터 조작이나 사회성 등을 분석하여 전통인물의 형태, 복식, 색, 주거환경을 반영한 표현기법, 캐릭터의 이상적인 형태나 전통 신화의 제한된 주제의 재구성, 캐릭터의 독창성이나 개성이 강조된 집합체 캐릭터 특징을 파악하였다. 중국 MMORPG 역사가 길지 않지만 이러한 연구를 통해 중국의 전통 문화 예술과 관련된 신화 무협 MMORPG의 정체성을 파악하고 플레이어로 하여금 더욱 효과적인 온라인게임의 이해와 만족감을 증가시킬 수 있으리라 본다.

중국어 학습에 대한 사회적 관심과 시장이 확대되고 스마트폰 어플리케이션을 기반으로 한 스마트러닝이 교육의 새로운 패러다임으로 자리 잡으면서 중국어 교육을 위한 어플리케이션의 연구와 개발도 활발해지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰의 멀티미디어 구현 특성과 사용자 인터렉션 기능을 활용하여 기초적인 중국어 한자를 학습할 수 있는 '중국어 교육용 기능성 어플리케이션'을 설계하고 프로토타입을 구현하여 제시하였다. 중국어 한자 표현, 발음 청취, 음성 녹음 및 비교 청취, 관련 내용 학습, 테스트 등의 기능을 간편한 사용자 인터페이스로 구현하였다. 향후 연구에서는 중국어 회화에 적용될 수 있는 사용자 인터페이스와 학습자 개인별 평가 지수 등을 통해 추가적인 도구 없이도 효과적인 학습이 가능한 프로토타입을 개발할 것이다.

A great deal needs to be learned about why and how users participate and consume information on various online sites. The design of socio-technical systems especially for promoting engagement in terms of maximum user participation is both a theoretical and real-world challenge that researchers strive to understand. At present, most of the research on the motives of Internet video users' behavior focuses on the user's "viewing motivation" and "sharing motivation", and lacks the analysis of the factors affecting users' "subscription motivation". This study will attempt to compensate for this gap. Based on the YouTube platform, we take Chinese video users as the research object and uses the "Censydiam user motivation analysis model" to make assumptions about user subscription motivation from the two levels of social needs and personal needs, using regression analysis. Validate the hypothesis and get the influencing factors that may be available in the user's subscription motivation based on the assumptions. Built on survey data from 215 respondents, the study found that Enjoyment, Vitality, Power, and Conviviality are four factors that influence user motivation.

본 연구는 한국과 중국 소비자 간 스마트폰 사용에 있어 사용자경험에 대한 인식의 차이와 함께 제품태도 및 재구매의도에 관한 인식의 차이를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 한 중 소비자 간 스마트폰에 대한 사용만족경험, 유용적경험, 디자인만족경험, 주변경험에서 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 중국 소비자가 한국 소비자에 비해 UI경험에 대한 모든 경험 요소를 높게 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 스마트폰의 제품태도에 대한 차이를 알아본 결과, 중국 소비자가 한국 소비자에 비해 높게 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 한 중 소비자 간 스마트폰의 재구매의도에 대한 차이를 알아본 결과, 통계적으로 의미 있는 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났으나 중국 소비자의 평균값이 더 높게 나타난 것으로 볼 때, 재구매의도 또한 한국 소비자에 비해 높은 것으로 해석 할 수 있다. 본 연구결과는 중국에 진출해 있는 한국 스마트폰 관련 기업들에게 중국시장에서의 경쟁력 제고를 위한 유용한 시사점과 함께 스마트폰과 관련한 사용자경험에 대한 국가 간 비교 연구의 기초자료를 제공한다는 학술적 의의를 가질 것으로 기대한다.
