Digital Convergence means integration between industry, technology, and contents, and in marketing, it usually comes with creation of new types of product and service under the base of digital technology as digitalization progress in electro-communication industries including telecommunication, home appliance, and computer industries. One can see digital convergence not only in instruments such as PC, AV appliances, cellular phone, but also in contents, network, service that are required in production, modification, distribution, re-production of information. Convergence in contents started around 1990. Convergence in network and service begins as broadcasting and telecommunication integrates and DMB(digital multimedia broadcasting), born in May, 2005 is the symbolic icon in this trend. There are some positive and negative expectations about DMB. The reason why two opposite expectations exist is that DMB does not come out from customer's need but from technology development. Therefore, customers might have hard time to interpret the real meaning of DMB. Time is quite critical to a high tech product, like DMB because another product with same function from different technology can replace the existing product within short period of time. If DMB does not positioning well to customer's mind quickly, another products like Wibro, IPTV, or HSPDA could replace it before it even spreads out. Therefore, positioning strategy is critical for success of DMB product. To make correct positioning strategy, one needs to understand how consumer interprets DMB and how consumer's interpretation can be changed via communication strategy. In this study, we try to investigate how consumer perceives a new product, like DMB and how AD strategy change consumer's perception. More specifically, the paper segment consumers into sub-groups based on their DMB perceptions and compare their characteristics in order to understand how they perceive DMB. And, expose them different printed ADs that have messages guiding consumer think DMB in specific ways, either cellular phone or personal TV. Research Question 1: Segment consumers according to perceptions about DMB and compare characteristics of segmentations. Research Question 2: Compare perceptions about DMB after AD that induces categorization of DMB in direction for each segment. If one understand and predict a direction in which consumer perceive a new product, firm can select target customers easily. We segment consumers according to their perception and analyze characteristics in order to find some variables that can influence perceptions, like prior experience, usage, or habit. And then, marketing people can use this variables to identify target customers and predict their perceptions. If one knows how customer's perception is changed via AD message, communication strategy could be constructed properly. Specially, information from segmented customers helps to develop efficient AD strategy for segment who has prior perception. Research framework consists of two measurements and one treatment, O1 X O2. First observation is for collecting information about consumer's perception and their characteristics. Based on first observation, the paper segment consumers into two groups, one group perceives DMB similar to Cellular phone and the other group perceives DMB similar to TV. And compare characteristics of two segments in order to find reason why they perceive DMB differently. Next, we expose two kinds of AD to subjects. One AD describes DMB as Cellular phone and the other Ad describes DMB as personal TV. When two ADs are exposed to subjects, consumers don't know their prior perception of DMB, in other words, which subject belongs 'similar-to-Cellular phone' segment or 'similar-to-TV' segment? However, we analyze the AD's effect differently for each segment. In research design, final observation is for investigating AD effect. Perception before AD is compared with perception after AD. Comparisons are made for each segment and for each AD. For the segment who perceives DMB similar to TV, AD that describes DMB as cellular phone could change the prior perception. And AD that describes DMB as personal TV, could enforce the prior perception. For data collection, subjects are selected from undergraduate students because they have basic knowledge about most digital equipments and have open attitude about a new product and media. Total number of subjects is 240. In order to measure perception about DMB, we use indirect measurement, comparison with other similar digital products. To select similar digital products, we pre-survey students and then finally select PDA, Car-TV, Cellular Phone, MP3 player, TV, and PSP. Quasi experiment is done at several classes under instructor's allowance. After brief introduction, prior knowledge, awareness, and usage about DMB as well as other digital instruments is asked and their similarities and perceived characteristics are measured. And then, two kinds of manipulated color-printed AD are distributed and similarities and perceived characteristics for DMB are re-measured. Finally purchase intension, AD attitude, manipulation check, and demographic variables are asked. Subjects are given small gift for participation. Stimuli are color-printed advertising. Their actual size is A4 and made after several pre-test from AD professionals and students. As results, consumers are segmented into two subgroups based on their perceptions of DMB. Similarity measure between DMB and cellular phone and similarity measure between DMB and TV are used to classify consumers. If subject whose first measure is less than the second measure, she is classified into segment A and segment A is characterized as they perceive DMB like TV. Otherwise, they are classified as segment B, who perceives DMB like cellular phone. Discriminant analysis on these groups with their characteristics of usage and attitude shows that Segment A knows much about DMB and uses a lot of digital instrument. Segment B, who thinks DMB as cellular phone doesn't know well about DMB and not familiar with other digital instruments. So, consumers with higher knowledge perceive DMB similar to TV because launching DMB advertising lead consumer think DMB as TV. Consumers with less interest on digital products don't know well about DMB AD and then think DMB as cellular phone. In order to investigate perceptions of DMB as well as other digital instruments, we apply Proxscal analysis, Multidimensional Scaling technique at SPSS statistical package. At first step, subjects are presented 21 pairs of 7 digital instruments and evaluate similarity judgments on 7 point scale. And for each segment, their similarity judgments are averaged and similarity matrix is made. Secondly, Proxscal analysis of segment A and B are done. At third stage, get similarity judgment between DMB and other digital instruments after AD exposure. Lastly, similarity judgments of group A-1, A-2, B-1, and B-2 are named as 'after DMB' and put them into matrix made at the first stage. Then apply Proxscal analysis on these matrixes and check the positional difference of DMB and after DMB. The results show that map of segment A, who perceives DMB similar as TV, shows that DMB position closer to TV than to Cellular phone as expected. Map of segment B, who perceive DMB similar as cellular phone shows that DMB position closer to Cellular phone than to TV as expected. Stress value and R-square is acceptable. And, change results after stimuli, manipulated Advertising show that AD makes DMB perception bent toward Cellular phone when Cellular phone-like AD is exposed, and that DMB positioning move towards Car-TV which is more personalized one when TV-like AD is exposed. It is true for both segment, A and B, consistently. Furthermore, the paper apply correspondence analysis to the same data and find almost the same results. The paper answers two main research questions. The first one is that perception about a new product is made mainly from prior experience. And the second one is that AD is effective in changing and enforcing perception. In addition to above, we extend perception change to purchase intention. Purchase intention is high when AD enforces original perception. AD that shows DMB like TV makes worst intention. This paper has limitations and issues to be pursed in near future. Methodologically, current methodology can't provide statistical test on the perceptual change, since classical MDS models, like Proxscal and correspondence analysis are not probability models. So, a new probability MDS model for testing hypothesis about configuration needs to be developed. Next, advertising message needs to be developed more rigorously from theoretical and managerial perspective. Also experimental procedure could be improved for more realistic data collection. For example, web-based experiment and real product stimuli and multimedia presentation could be employed. Or, one can display products together in simulated shop. In addition, demand and social desirability threats of internal validity could influence on the results. In order to handle the threats, results of the model-intended advertising and other "pseudo" advertising could be compared. Furthermore, one can try various level of innovativeness in order to check whether it make any different results (cf. Moon 2006). In addition, if one can create hypothetical product that is really innovative and new for research, it helps to make a vacant impression status and then to study how to form impression in more rigorous way.

We investigated what factors motivate gamers to participate in a guild and why they continue to be engaged as members of the guild. We find that, based on the result of focus group interviews with MMORPG gamers, social support and self-esteem factors play important roles. Considering both prior research and the focus group interviews we have conducted, we define social support and character control as independent variables. Character identity, guild identity, and self-esteem are proposed as mediating variables while guild flow and game loyalty as dependent variables. Accordingly, we develop the research model and hypotheses, and verify them empirically. Based on our experiences of playing the WoW game, we proposed a research model and conducted focus-group interviews (FGIs). FGIs involve formulating a hypothesis and then collecting some relevant data. FGIs were conducted face-to-face with students of C University in Korea. We formulated structured interview schedules, and the questions were based on our research variables and personal experiences. The questions for the interviews encompassed the following areas: (a) the demographic characteristics of the focus group; (b) the number of years for which respondents had played online games; (c) the motive for starting a game; (d) the number of game-characters assumed by each gamer; (e) the type of game played; and (f) other issues such as the reasons for involvement in the play, the willingness to reuse the game in case new versions were released, etc. On average, it took two hours to interview each of three groups. A primary set of FGIs was conducted with three groups on the premise that there would be some differences caused by character race (Horde vs. Alliance) or by playable server (Normal vs. Combat). With respect to the manner of playing, we found that guild members shared information, felt a sense of belonging, and played computer games for quite a long time through the guild; however, they did not undergo these experiences when playing alone. Gamers who belonged to a specific guild helped other players without expecting compensation for that, freely shared information about the game, gave away items for free, and more generous with other members who made mistakes. The guild members were aware of the existence other members and experienced a sense of belonging through interactions with, and evaluations from, other players. It was clear that social support was shown within the guild and that it played an important role as a major research variable. Based on the results of the first FGIs, a second set of in-depth FGIs was carried out with a focus on the psychology of the individual within the guild and the social community of the guild. The second set of FGIs also focused on the guild's offline meetings. Gamers, over all, recognize the necessity of joining a community, not only off-line but also online world of the guild. They admit that the guild is important for them to easily and conveniently enjoy playing online computer games. The active behavior and positive attitudes of existing guild members can motivate new members of the guild to adapt themselves to the guild environment. They then adopt the same behaviors and attitudes of established guild members. In this manner, the new members of the guild strengthen the bonds with other gamers while feeling a sense of belonging, and developing social identity, thereby. It was discovered that the interaction among guild members and the social support encouraged new gamers to quickly develop a sense of social identity and increase their self-esteem. The guild seemed to play the role of socializing gamers. Sometimes, even in the real world, the guild members helped one another; therefore, the features of the guild also spilled over to the offline environment. We intend to use self-esteem, which was found through the second set of FGIs, as an important research variable. To collect data, an online survey was designed with a questionnaire to be completed by WoW gamers, who belong to a guild. The survey was registered on the best three domestic game-sites: 'WoW playforum,' 'WoW gamemeca,' and 'Wow invent.' The selected items to be measured in the questionnaire were decided based on prior research and data from FGIs. To verify the content of the questionnaire, we carried out a pilot test with the same participants to point out ambiguous questions as a way to ensure maximum accuracy of the survey result. A total of 244 responses were analyzed from the 250 completed questionnaires. The SEM analysis was used to test goodness-of-fit of the model. As a result, we found important results as follows: First, according to the statistics, social support had statistically significant impacts on character control, character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Second, character control had significant effects on character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Third, character identity shows its clear impact on self-esteem and game loyalty. Fourth, guild identity affected self-esteem, guild flow and game loyalty. Fifth, self-esteem had a positive influence on the guild flow. These days, the number of virtual community is rising along with its significance largely because of the nature of the online games. Accordingly, this study is designed to clarify the psychological relationship between gamers within the guild that has been generally established by gamers to play online games together. This study focuses on the relationships in which social support influences guild flow or game loyalty through character control, character identity, guild identity, and self-esteem, which are present within a guild in the MMORPG game environment. The study results are as follows. First, the effects of social support on character control, character identity, guild identity and self-esteem are proven to be statistically significant. It was found that character control improves character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Among the seven variables, social support, which is derived from FGIs, plays an important role in this study. With the active support of other guild members, gamers can improve their ability to develop good characters and to control them. Second, character identity has a positive effect on self-esteem and game loyalty, while guild identity has a significant effect on self-esteem, guild flow and game loyalty. Self-esteem affects guild flow. It was found that the higher the character and guild identities become, the greater the self-esteem is established. Contrary to the findings of prior research, our study results indicate that the relationship between character identity and guild flow is not significant. Rather, it was found that character identity directly affects game players' loyalty. Even though the character identity had no direct effect on increasing guild flow, it has indirectly affected guild flow through self-esteem. The significant relationship between self-esteem and guild flow indicates that gamers achieve flow, i.e., a feeling of pleasure and excitement through social support. Several important implications of this study should be noted. First, both qualitative and quantitative methods were used to conduct this study. Through FGIs, it was observed that both social support and self-esteem are important variables. Second, because guilds had been rarely studied, this research is expected to play an important role in the online community. Third, according to the result, six hypotheses (H1, H5, H6, H7, H8, and H11) setup based on FGIs, were statistically significant; thus, we can suggest the corresponding relationships among the variables as a guideline for follow-up research. Our research is significant as it has following implications: first, the social support of the guild members is important when establishing character control, character identity, guildidentity and self-esteem. It is also a major variable that affects guild flow and game loyalty. Second, character control when improved by social support shows notable influence on the development of character identity, guild identity and self-esteem. Third, character identity and guild identity are major factors to help establish gamers' own self-esteem. Fourth, character identity affects guild flow through self-esteem and game loyalty. The gamers usually express themselves through characters; the higher character identity is, the more loyalty a gamer has. Fifth, guild identity, established within the guild, has clear effects on self-esteem, guild flow and game loyalty. Sixth, qualitative and quantitative methods are employed to conduct this study. Based on the results of focus group interviews and SEM analysis, we find that the social support by guild members and psychological factors are significant in strengthening the flow of guild and loyalty to the game. As such, game developers should provide some extra functions for guild community, through which gamers can play online games in collaboration with one another. Also, we suggest that positive self-esteem which is built up through social support can help gamers achieve higher level of flow and satisfaction, which will consequently contribute to minimizing the possibility for the players to develop negative attitude toward the guild they belong to.

The study was originated from recognition that project participants' satisfaction should be Improved to raise project performance and to make progress of a successful project since the above dissatisfaction was operated as a danger factor of the project. The study selected one large-scale sample project and attempted measuring characteristics of the project, participants' satisfaction and project performance with the whole project participants. The study analyzed correlations between individual level (team members) and group level (development team), and examined what effect a sub project manager under complicated hierarchical organization of the large-scale project, namely PL (project leader)'s leadership style had on each individual project participant's satisfaction and what effect project uncertainty in organization/technology environment had on project participants' satisfaction and project performance. The study verified that development team (group) had an effect on team member (individual)-level project participants' satisfaction by disclosing that there was a significant dispersion among groups within project participants' satisfaction by each individual. It is analyzed that it is necessary to make improvement through approach by each pertinent team to raise individual-level project participants' satisfaction. The study also verified PL's ideal leadership under strict methodology and hierarchical control of the large-scale project. Based on the verification of the hypotheses, the results of the analysis were produced as follows. First, the development team affects the satisfaction level that an individual has when he/she participates in a project. This suggests that the satisfaction with project participation should be improved at the team level. In addition, the project management style and leadership orientation of the manager of a sub project who is mostly affected by the team proved to have a direct influence on the satisfaction with project participation and project performances. Second, both the performance-oriented leadership and the relationship-oriented leadership of the PL of the development team were verified to have a significant effect on the satisfaction of the team members associated with project participation. In other words, when the team members recognize that the PL of the development team shows both the performance-oriented leadership and the relationship-oriented leadership, their satisfaction with project participation increases accordingly. Third, it was verified that the uncertainty of the organizational environment significantly affects the satisfaction level when the PL of the development team exerts a relationship-oriented and performance-oriented leadership. The higher the uncertainty of the organizational environment is, the more the satisfaction with project participation decreases whereas the relationship-oriented leadership has a more positive effect on the satisfaction than the performance-oriented leadership style. Fourth, when the PL of the development team exerts the relationship-related and performance-related leadership, the uncertainty of the technological environment has a significant influence on the satisfaction level. The higher the uncertainty of the technological environment is, the more the satisfaction with project participation decreases whereas the performance-oriented leadership has a more positive effect on the satisfaction than the relationship-oriented leadership style. The result of the research on the uncertainty of the project environment suggests that when the development team leader exerts a relationship-oriented and performance-oriented leadership style, the uncertainty of the organizational environment has a significant effect on the satisfaction with project participation; the higher the uncertainty of the organizational environment, the more the satisfaction level decreases, and the relationship-oriented leadership style affects the satisfaction level more positively than the performance-oriented leadership style. In addition, when the development team leader displays a relationship-oriented and performance-oriented leadership style, the uncertainty of the technological environment has a significant effect on the satisfaction with project participation; the higher the uncertainty of the technological environment. the more the satisfaction level decreases. The performance-oriented leadership style as well affects the satisfaction level more positively than the relationship-oriented leadership style. Based on the above results, the research provides the following implications when handling multiple concurrent projects. First, the satisfaction with the participation in the multiple concurrent projects needs to be enhanced at the team (group) level. Second. the manager of the project team, particularly the middle managers should have both a performance-oriented and relationship (task and human)-oriented attitude and exert a consolidated leadership in order to improve the satisfaction of team members with project participation and their performances. Third, as the uncertainty factor of the technological and organizational environment among the characteristics factors of the project has room for methodological improvement depending on one's effort even though there are some complications, we need to continuously prevent and control the risks resulting from the uncertainties of the technological and organizational environment of the project in order to enhance the satisfaction of project participation and project performances. Fourth, the performance (task)-oriented leadership is required when there is uncertainty in a technological environment while the relationship (human)-oriented leadership is required when there is uncertainty in an organizational environment. This research has the following limitations. First, this research intended to select one large-sized sample project and measure the project characteristics, the satisfaction of all the participants associated with project participation, and their performances. Therefore, it is inappropriate to generalize and apply the result of this result onto other numerous projects. Second, as this case study entailed a survey to measure the characteristics factors and performance of the project, since the result value was based on the perception of project team members, the data may have insufficient objectivity. Third, though this research targeted on all the project participants, some development teams did not provide sufficient data and questionnaires were collected from some specific development teams among the 23 development teams, causing a significant deviation in the response rate among the development teams. Therefore, we need to continuously conduct the follow-up researches making comparisons among the multiple projects, and centering on the characteristics factors of the project and its satisfaction level.

가맹사업에 있어 배타적 영업지역보호정책의 문제는 경제학 및 경영학 분야뿐만 아니라 사회 정치적으로 매우 중요한 쟁점이다. 본 연구는 배타적 영업지역과 관련한 기존 문헌을 토대로 가맹사업에서의 효율성 관점에서 배타적 영업지역보호에 영향을 미치는 변수와 배타적 영업지역 보호가 가맹본부 및 가맹점의 성과에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 있다. 가맹점의 대부분이 중소상인들이란 점을 감안하면 유통정책적으로도 중요한 의미가 있다고 할 수 있다. 본연구는 사회적으로도 잇슈가 될 수 있는 기업의 전략을 타당성과 당위성, 그리고 논리성으로만 평가하는 것이 아니라 실제 자료를 근거로 분석하였다. 또, 정책연구들이 가지고 있는 자료와 이론의 한계를 감안한 탐색적 방법론을 활용하여 보다 실질적이고 현실적용성이 뛰어난 분석을 제안하였다. 분석 결과, 배타적 영업지역보호는 긍정적인 효과가 있기는 하지만 통계적으로 유의하지 못하였으며, 가맹점과 가맹본부간의 로얄티가 많아서 위험공유성향이 클때에는 배타적 영업지역보호를 하지 않는 것이 효과적이었고, 가맹점을 모집하기 위해 배타적 영업지역보호를 해주거나 배타적 영업지역보호를 통해서 가맹사업본부내의 효율성을 키우기 위한 경우에는 긍정적인 효과가 유의하게 나타나는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 하지만 외부경쟁으로부터 직영점을 보호하기 위하거나 시장성장을 활용하기 위한 배타적 영업지역보호는 좋은 성과를 내지 못하였다. 또한 쉽게 배타적 영업지역보호를 할 수 있기에 이런 제도를 도입하는 것도 역시 좋은 성과를 내지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 결과적으로 배타적 영업지역보호가 기업의 운영효율을 증대시키기 위하여 하는 경우는 성과가 좋으나 다른 목적을 위하여 배타적 영업지역보호를 활용하는 것은 바람직한 결과를 못내는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 분석결과를 토대로 영업지역 보호를 획일적으로 활용하거나 법으로 강제하기 보다는 가맹사업본부와 가맹점의 관계 및 상황, 또 동기에 맞추어 탄력적으로 적용하는 것이 바람직하다는 제안을 하고 있으며, 이를 근거로 몇 가지 정책적 시사점을 제시하였다.

이 논문은 '만남'과 '설레임'에서 비롯되었다. 본 논문의 저자는 2013년 2월 중순 경 만나 6월 초에 예정되어있던 원내 학술발표 주제에 대해 상의하였다. "현금(現今) 대중들의 강한 호응을 얻으며 많은 관객들의 발길을 끌어당기고 있는 개봉관 영화들 중에 어린 시절 들었던 옛날이야기들과 유사한 내용의 영화들이 유난히 많이 눈에 띈다. 그런 현상이 신기하다." 라는 대화를 하며 이런 저런 이야기들을 나누다가, 영화 '드라큘라', '트와일라잇 시리즈', '웜바디스(Warm bodies)'에로 자연스럽게 주제가 흘러가게 되고, 저자 공히 이 영화들을 모두 보았으며 또한 매우 인상 깊게 보았다는 사실을 발견하게 되었다. 학술발표의 주제를 이와 관련하여 정하면 좋겠다는 생각이 떠오르고 그것이 말로 표현되는 순간, 가슴 두근거리는 설레임과 두려움과 망설임이 동시에 느껴졌으며, 이렇게 하여 학술발표의 주제가 결정되었다. 학술발표를 준비하고 강연발표하고 청중들과 토론하는 과정 내내 설레임과 열정이 저자와 함께 하였으며, 학술발표집담회에 참석한 청중들 역시 긍정적으로 혹은 부정적으로 강한 감정반응을 보이며 시간이 지나도록 열띤 토론을 한 후 학술발표를 마치게 되었다. 구연된 발표내용을 그냥 덮어버리려 했으나 웬지 모를 아쉬움이 남고 그 여운이 가시지 않고 있던 중에, 청중들 중 한 분의 조언과 권고에 따라, 논문으로 완성하여 투고하기로 결심하게 되었다. 이 논문은 저자가 만나 설레임과 열정을 공유하며 설레임과 열정이 이끄는 곳으로 동반하던 길 위에서 시도하게 된 하나의 작은 '창조적 글쓰기'이다. 본 논문의 제 l장에서는 '창조적 글쓰기'로 이어진 31세 여성의 꿈을 소개하고 그 꿈 이전과 이후의 여성 개인의 삶이 어떠한지에 대해 조명해 보았으며, 제 2장에서는 개인의 무의식(꿈, 환상)에 나타나거나 체험되는 '창조적 충동'의 귀결(실현 방향) 및 의미에 대해 고찰하였다. 개인에서 보이는 '창조적 충동'은, '내향화' 과정을 통해 개인의 인격의 창조적 변환을 가져오게 되기도 하며, '환상적 창작' 혹은 '외향화' 과정을 통해 '작품'으로 출산되기도 함을 볼 수 있었다. 때로는 두 방향의 귀결이 동시에 함께 일어나기도 하였다. 후일 처녀작 '트와일라잇'이라는 작품으로 완성됨으로써 '작가'로서의 새로운 자신을 발견하게 한, 스테프니 메이어(Stephenie Meyer)의 '원형적 꿈'을 분석심리학적으로 고찰하고 그 해석을 시도해보았다. 제 3장에서는 개인의 꿈들과 영화 '드라큘라' '트와일라잇 시리즈' '웜바디스' 등을 조명해 보면서, 개인의 꿈들과 대중들의 뜨거운 호응을 얻고 있는 소설, 영화 등의 일부 예술작품에서 '어둠의 남자(뱀파이어, 좀비)'의 모습(像)에 변환이 있으며, 인간인 여성과 사랑에 빠지게 되고 사랑이 결실을 맺기도 하며, 또한 어둠의 남자(뱀파이어)에 대한 의식의 자아의 태도와 상호 관계양상에 있어서도 매우 인상적인 어떤 변화가 일어나고 있음을 볼 수 있었다. 현금의 이와 같은 현상에 대해, 왜 이런 변화가 일어나고 있는 것인지 이와 같은 변화는 그 개인 및 이 시대와 어떤 관련이 있으며 개인 및 시대에 어떤 영향을 미치게 되는 것인지 등에 대해 숙고해 보았다. 인간의 마음 심층(深層)으로부터 솟아오르는 '창조적 충동'은 '개인의 인격의 창조적 변환'으로 실현되거나 예술적 창조를 통해 '작품'으로 출산되기도 하며 시대의 인연과 닿을 경우 그 시대의 많은 사람들과 공유하게 됨으로써, 개인과 시대를 새롭게 할 수 있는 치유와 구원의 작용을 가져오게 되기도 함을 볼 수 있었다. 본 논문에서는 개인의 '창조적 충동'의 긍정적이고 치유적인 측면에 대해 주로 조명해 보았으며, '창조적 충동'이 초래할 수 있는 부정적인 귀결 및 그 원인에 대한 고찰은 후일 기회가 되면 새로운 논문을 통해 다시 다루고자 한다.

We conducted to investigate citizen's attitude to the treatment of food waste in Yongin city. The respondent of $41.81\%$ throws the food waste eliminate from home and store less than 1l in Yongin. When they dump the food waste, they speak out the inconvenience of damaged envelope by animals in case of home and store. This caused troubles for reason of sanitary. So a local autonomous entity must carefully consider of expand use specially designed container as like apartment house. They give an answer that the collecting time of food waste is suitable form dawn till morning. This answer shows the satisfaction of the period time to collect the food waste. They prefer to be appointed the exclusive place to collect food waste. The service interval of collect is suitable 1 time a day. They want to increase the number of washing of the collecting container. This is good method for sanitary condition, but the care of the period time to collect the food waste is more efficient than the care of the number of washing the collecting container. The care of the period time minimizes to incur the enmity of the people and to pollute in environment. The major of respondent handled the food waste after keeping the basket or a kit. This fact shows to us almost citizen doesn't feel the seriousness to remove the moisture of the food waste. Recently, many solutions which can be disposal efficiently are getting magnified and improved owing to increase utilities channel to loss in quantities and dry the food waste. We expect the reduction of food waste is solved getting easily step by step. The results of the awareness about the facility of food waste show citizen prefer recycling facility to the other facilities. If recycle facility and incineration facility are constructed, they were worried about bed smell. When some facility of the food waste is constructed, they have to maintain and to handle not to incur the enmity of the people. The spread rate of specially designed container already increased, the citizen set a high value on the use of specially designed container more than amount-rate vinyl envelope that people have used for several years. In the cost treatment about food waste, the major respondent answered the use cost of specially designed container is suitable price. So we can know the use charge is proper level. The majority of citizen more prefer autonomous plan which voluntary atmosphere creation and public information by mass media than levy system and rising treatment cost which forced plan. The citizens have pretty positive thinking of incineration, so the government needs more efforts for a public notice, which includes the incineration is no more than abandoned thing. Each of local self government has to sort the food waste and make kind of resource system related to collecting and carrying, constructing a suitable facility, proper disposal of the food waste and producing harmless in our surrounding in order to solve the invisible problems. To do above mentioned things, we have to analyze referred several problems till now. Also, to minimize the side effect, the government will have to improve through enforce the system.

임신기 구강관리와 영아의 구강관리에 대한 지식은 구강병을 예방하기 위하여 가장 기본이 되는 것이며, 구강관리는 습관화 되는 과정이라는 점을 감안할 때 이 시기의 관리가 무엇보다도 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 그러므로 연구자들은 임부들의 영아구강관리에 대한 지식을 살펴보고, 영유아기 우식증에 대한 인식정도를 파악하며, 임부들의 구강관리지식에 대한 잘못된 내용 포함정도를 살펴보기 위해 서울시 보건소와 유관업체에서 주관하는 임산부 건강교실에 참가한 임부 330명을 무작위 표본추출하여 개별면접방식으로 진행한 연구를 통해 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 임부들이 구강병을 중대한 문제로 생각하고 있는 비율은 82% 이었고, 잇솔질의 중요성을 인식하고 있는 비율은 94% 이었다. 2. 영유아기 우식증을 인지하고 있는 비율은 42% 이었고, 임신경험별로 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 인정되었다(p<0.05). 3. 영유아기 우식증 원인 중 잘못된 수유습관을 인지하고 있는 비율은 58% 이었고, 잘못된 모유습관에 의한 우식발생 가능성에 대한 인지율은 43% 이었으며, 임신경험별로 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 인정되었다(p<0.05). 4. 임신 중 태아는 모체의 치아로부터 칼슘을 빼앗아 간다고 인지하는 비율이 82% 이었다. 5. 임신 중 치과치료를 금하는 것이 안전하다고 인지하는 비율은 71% 이었다. 영아구강관리 및 임신기 구강관리에 대한 정확한 지식을 습득하고 있는 비율이 상대적으로 낮았고, 임신기 구강건강증진을 위한 프로그램의 개발과 정확한 구강관리 정보를 체계적으로 제공해 줄 수 있는 기회의 마련이 시급하다고 검토되었다.

본 연구는 초등학교의 당 관련 영양교육이 당 섭취에 관한 영양지식과 영양태도, 식행동에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 평가하기 위해 당 섭취에 관한 설문조사를 실시하였고, 당 교육인지군과 비인지군으로 나누어 영양지식과 식행동에 어떠한 차이가 있는지를 분석함으로써 초등학생들의 당류 섭취에 영향을 미치는 요인을 평가하고자 하였으며, 본 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 본 조사 대상자 중 당 교육을 받았다고 인지한 교육 인지군은 270명 (49.8%) 이었고, 비인지군은 302명 (50.2%) 이었다. 당 교육 인지 여부에 따른 이론적 지식 점수를 보면 교육 인지군 3.67점, 비인지군 3.55점으로 교육 인지군이 비인지군에 비해 유의적으로 높았으나, 바른 행동에 대한 지식 점수는 두 군간에 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 당류 섭취 관련식행동 점수, 음료 선택 및 간식 구매 빈도는 당 교육 인지 여부에 따른 두 군 간에 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 영양표시에서 당류 함량을 확인하는 비율은 교육 인지군이 31.2%로 비인지군 15.4%에 비해 유의적으로 높았다. 아이들이 즐겨 섭취하는 식품군별 섭취 빈도를 보면 교육 인지군이 비인지군에 비해 무가당 캔디나 젤리류, 생과일류의 섭취 빈도가 유의적으로 높았으며, 식품군별 당류 섭취량은 달지 않은 빵류, 흰 우유 및 생과일을 통한 당류 섭취량이 비인지군에 비해 교육 인지군에서 유의적으로 높았다. 당 관련 지식 점수와 식행동 사이의 상관성을 보면 교육 인지군의 경우 식행동 점수, 아이스크림, 초콜릿, 탄산음료를 덜 먹으려는 행동과는 양의 상관성을, 방과 후 간식 구입 빈도, 평균 당류 섭취량과는 음의 상관성을 보였으며, 비인지군의 경우 식행동 점수, 아이스크림, 빵을 먹을 때 잼을 덜 먹는 행동 및 과일 섭취 시 설탕을 덜 먹으려는 식행동과 양의 상관성을, 방과 후 간식구입 빈도 및 당류 섭취량과는 음의 상관성을 보였으나, 비인지군에 비해 교육 인지군에 좀더 높은 상관계수 값을 보였다. 또한 하루 총 당류 섭취량에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석한 결과 교육 인지군에서만 영양(교)사의 교육 여부가 총 당류 섭취량을 감소시키는 요인으로 분석되었다. 본 연구결과 당 교육을 인지한 대상자들이 비인지군에 비해 당류 함량이 낮은 식품을 섭취하려고 노력하는 것으로 나타나고 있으며, 영양교사의 교육 여부가 당류 섭취량에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요인으로 분석되고 있다. 그러므로 초등학생들의 당류 섭취량 감소를 위해서는 학교의 영양 전문가인 영양(교)사에 의해 지속적이고, 행동으로 실천할 수 있는 실천 중심의 영양교육이 수행될 필요가 있으며, 학교 현장에서 손쉽게 활용할 수 있는 다양한 형태의 당 관련 영양교육 자료의 개발 및 보급이 수행되어야 할 것이다.

대학생은 소득활동을 준비하는 잠재적인 소득계층으로 매우 중요한 미래의 주된 소비자이다. 본 연구는 대학생 소비자의 인삼 관련 소비문화의 현황을 파악하고 앞으로 인삼 제품과 서비스의 확대를 위하여 그들의 인삼 제품에 대한 태도를 알아보고, 구매현황 및 만족도, 그리고 구매의도를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 통하여 구매의도에 영향을 미치는 관련 변수의 상대적 영향력을 살펴보았다. 그 결과, 대학생 소비자의 인삼 제품 구매의도에 영향을 미치는 변수는 인삼에 대한 신뢰성, 경제성, 구매 경험, 주관적 관심도, 월평균 소득(아르바이트 포함), 월평균 용돈, 인삼에 대한 자부심, 그리고 연령 등의 순으로 나타났다. 이 중에서 대부분의 변수가 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤으나, 월평균 소득, 월평균 용돈, 연령은 부(-)의 영향을 미쳤다. 즉, 인삼에 대한 신뢰성, 경제성, 자부심이 높을수록 구매의도가 높았으며, 구매 경험이 많을수록, 인삼에 대한 주관적 관심도가 높을수록 구매의도 역시 높았으나, 연령, 월평균 용돈, 소득 등은 높을수록 오히려 구매의도가 낮았다. 대학생의 인삼 제품 소비 촉진을 위해서는 젊은 층을 위한 가격 인하, 질적인 측면에서의 고급화, 그리고 젊은 세대를 위한 제품의 다양화, 떫고 쓴 맛을 거부하는 부정적인 측면을 극복할 수 있는 맛 개선, 그리고 무엇보다 소비자의 관심을 유도할 수 있는 면이 필요하다. 또한, 젊은 층이 편리하고 쉽게 먹을 수 있는 제품 개발과 판매처의 증설 등을 통한 접근성 확대도 필요하다. 최근 젊은 소비자들은 이전에 경험해 보지 못한 새로운 제품, 디자인이나 포장이 독특하여 인증하기 좋은 제품, 과거의 향수를 자극하는 레트로 제품 등에 관심이 많으므로 이러한 관점에서 인삼 제품 소비와 관련된 홍보 및 정보제공을 할 필요가 있다. 소비자의 실용성과 편리성을 고려하고 다양한 생활환경에 맞추어 휴대가 편리한 제품 선호를 반영하며 다른 제품과 시너지 효과를 발휘할 수 있는 개인 소비자의 취향 큐레이션 서비스 등의 고려를 제안한다.
