The second group of respondents consisting of the fourth-year students showed a slight but effective improvement. The Leadership Skills of this group were found at a sufficient level. Positive dynamics was revealed for all criteria of leadership skills as a result of applying objective diagnostic methods: decreased percentage of students with negative and relatively low markers of Leadership Skills Level and corresponding increase in percentage of applicants with positive markers of Leadership Skills Level. Further research can be organized in the direction of identifying and developing successful universal and professionally-oriented tactics for leadership development in students as part of attitude development.

This study examines the relationships between visitors' environmental attitudes as measured by the new environmental paradigm (NEP) and their recreational motivations based on data collected from a national park in South Korea. The data analysis indicated that visitors' environmental attitudes and motivation were multi-dimensional structures. The NEP composed of three factors named 'Humans over Nature', 'Balance of Nature', and Limit to Growth'. Visitors' motivation also composed of four factors representing 'Achievement and Stimulation', 'Escape and Enjoying Nature', 'Social and Leadership', and 'Family'. However, there were significant correlations among the factors, suggesting they were independent each other. There were also significant differences in visitors' motivation due to their level of environmental attitudes.

Purpose: Despite the fact that the majority of domestic firms are small in size, there have been few studies conducted to understand the leadership effectiveness of small firm CEOs. Based on the upper echelon theory, this study attempts to demonstrate empirically that transformational leadership of small firm CEOs can increase the innovative behavior of employees. In addition, the present study examines mediating effects of CEO trust perceived by employees when transformational leadership affects employees' innovative behavior. Methods: The survey data of CEOs'transformational leadership, innovative behavior of employees, and perceived CEO trust were collected from 176 employees working in domestic small firms. Hierarchical regression analyses were performed to examine the main effects between transformation leadership and innovative behavior and mediating effects of CEO trust perceived by employees. Results: The results show that CEOs' transformational leadership is significantly related to the innovative behavior of employees in the current sample. Results also indicate that CEO trust perceived by employees reveals a mediating effect in the process of transformational leadership affecting innovative behavior. Conclusion: The results show that as suggested by the upper echelon theory, the leadership of small firm CEOs can have a significant impact on positive job-related behaviors and attitudes of employees. The results also contribute to expand on the understanding of the relationship between transformational leadership and innovative behavior by explaining that transformational leadership can mediate trust in CEOs in enhancing employees'innovative behavior. Theoretical and practical implications are reviewed, and limitations of the study and suggestions for future research are addressed.

Purpose: This study is a comparative study conducted to examine the differences in attitudes toward COVID-19 prevention, self-leadership, and infection prevention behaviors among nursing students based on their experience in community volunteer related to infection disease prevention. Method: A total of 286 nursing students (146 in the experimental group and 140 in the control group) from 14 regions across the country were conveniently sampled from November 1 to 30, 2021, and the average difference in each variable according to participation in volunteer activities was analyzed using a t-test. Results: The comparison of differences based on participation in volunteer activities showed that the group with volunteer experience had a statistically significantly higher score in all variables: attitudes toward COVID-19 prevention (42.25±5.35 points) compared to those without experience (40.02±6.30 points)(p=.001), self-leadership (72.04±13.18 points) compared to those without experience (66.58±10.85 points)(p<.000), and infectious disease prevention behavior (44.31±7.62 points) compared to those without experience (39.38±7.20 points)(p<.000). Conclusion: This study provides practical and educational implications by suggesting a direction for educating nursing students who will need to provide actual care in future infectious disease outbreaks. These results suggest that nursing students could carry out volunteer service related infection diseases prevention through customized education and promotion programs for different target groups, which could be supported by school budgets, club activities, or incorporated into regular courses. Furthermore, it can be utilized as foundational data for the development of future nursing education programs

The results of analysis show that employee's agility is a driving force leading to individual work performance, that employee's absorptive capacity, IT resource use, readiness to change, and knowledge-oriented leadership are the significant influential factors of employee's agility, and that knowledge-oriented leadership strengthens the link between employee's absorptive capacity and agility. For theoretical and practical contributions, the research presents the grounds for arguments that employee's agility is employee's dynamic capability for individual work performance under work environment change, and that organizations trying to improve employee's agility need to explore employee's behavioral attitudes under individual, leader, and organizational dimensions. Limitations arisen in the course of the research and suggestions for future research directions are also discussed.
