This paper aims to examine the effects of perceived social fairness and upward social mobility on the individual emotional depression. Specifically, this study investigates the conditions under which the effects are more or less pronounced for the sake of shedding more light on the relationship between social-cognitive and psychological factors. The key proposition of this study is that as one holds more favorable beliefs about the fairness of the society to which (s)he belong, (s)he would have more optimistic expectations for the possibility of his or her own upward social mobility. Moreover, the decrease of this expectation could exacerbate his or her emotional depression with the expectation that (s)he might not get what (s)he deserves despite his or her time and effort put into achieving such goals. This study also adds further boundary conditions to these effects, such that the decrease of emotional depression is more pronounced when (1)social capital and (2)economic resources are scarce (versus abundant). To test these predictions, this study used the survey data on a total of 8000 people collected by Gallup Korea at the request of the Korea Institute of Public Administration. The analyses provided support for the proposed model of the present study. These results should contribute to laying the theoretical foundation for the establishment of policies and research models on the enhancement of fairness and prevention of depression in the future.

This study examined the effects of the risk generation factors on the public service motivation and a vocational calling of fire service officers during their work. This is based on the assumption that the risk generation factors of firefighters in their organization should be related to the effectiveness of the organization by affecting the psychological capital of the individual. For this study, the survey was conducted on fire service officers who participated the official training session in Kyuunggi and Seoul area and analyzed the data collected by the regression analysis and t-test analysis. As a result, the higher the perception of generation factors, the higher the level of public service motivation and vocational calling. In addition, there was a significant difference between a high risk generation factor perception group and low risk group regarding the perception level of public service motivations and vocational callings. These results show that there is a need to provide more field-based training opportunities for firefighters who can recognize the risk generation factors better.
