The purpose of this study is to identify the characteristics and differences in the perception of professionalism of workers in public and private social welfare institutions, and to understand the effect of professionalism perception on job commitment and performance. The main results and implications are as follows. First, there was a statistically significant difference in the perception of professionalism of public and private social workers. Specifically, private 3.26 and public 3.15 were higher in the recognition of professionalism of social workers working in the private sector than in the public sector. Second, both public and private social workers' perception of professionalism had an effect on job commitment and job performance. In other words, the higher the recognition of professionalism, the higher the job commitment and performance of both private and public sector workers. Third, workers in the private sector were higher in both job commitment and job performance than those in public institutions. In short, although professionalism perception affects the job commitment and performance of private and public workers, the job commitment and performance of private social welfare organizations with high professionalism awareness is high.

This study aims to analyze how the public perceive the climate change in South Korea. The climate change has been highlighted due to its social and environmental impact on future society during decades. In recent, the outbreak of COVID-19 alerted the causal relationship between diseases and the climate change and forced decision-makers to cope with possible future epidemics. Along with the social and political importance of the climate change, the perception and actions of the public also become significant. Thus, this study analyzes the trends in the public perception of climate change before and after the COVID-19, using social media big data from March 1, 2019 through February 28, 2022. The results show that the negative perception dominated the public's perception, but a little positive perception implies that numerous policies on the climate change may help the public convert their negative perception to the positive. This study may help the decision-makers develop future policies and strategies on the climate change and carbon neutrality by considering the demand-side perception, such as South Korean perception.

This study is focused on the causal relationship between children's intimate behavior and the level of perception towards their grandparents. Their perceptions are related to factors such as proximity, similarity, superiority, favorableness, and self-disclosure. We clarified the relation between intimate behavior and perception using effect factors of children's behavior regarding their grandparents so that this study could be used as an elementary material in developing a solution to improve grandparent-grandchild relationship where the grandparent actively encourages grandchildren's intimate behavior. Regression analysis was used as a hypothesis testing method. The results indicated the following three points. First, perception factors affect active intimate behavior in the order of favorableness, superiority, self-disclosure, and similarity. Second, perception factors affect intimate behavior will in the order of favorableness, superiority, and self-disclosure. Lastly, it was shown that a child's active intimate behavior has an influence on their intimate behavior will.

New media moved the place of social exchange to the Internet, allowing large groups to communicate in one place beyond the limits of time and space. Recent studies have also reported cases in which human social abilities do not keep up with the expansion of group scale through social media. In this context, current study investigated how human perception of social information is affected by the expansion of the group scale in the context of majority bias. Using Internet-based task, the psychological processes that group ratio and group size are perceived and affect majority-biased social information use were investigated, and whether group scale moderates those processes was examined. The group ratio has a positive effect on the majority bias, and the relationship was partially mediated by ratio perception. Group scale did not moderate the relationship between group ratio and ratio perception. On the other hand, the correlation between group size and majority-biased social information use was not significant. Group scale moderates group size perception. The group size and size perception showed positive correlation under the smaller group scale condition. However under the extended group scale condition, the perceived group size became significantly lower and lost its correlation with group size. These results provide evidence that the psychological mechanism related to group size perception was not properly responding to the expansion of the group scale. Furthermore, the possibility of a specific psychological mechanism for processing group size information and the form of information input specifically accepted by majority bias were discussed from perspective of evolutionary psychology.

The purposes of this study were to explore the perception of risk regarding an ageing society and to suggest the ways of preparation for an ageing society. Based on the social constructionist paradigm from Slovic as to the perception of risk and the perspectives of new social risks fromTaylor-Gooby, we observed risk perception of an ageing society in two ways: ordering of perceived risks and risk perception. Social survey research method was used for this study and data collected from 1,500 subjects aged 20 and over were analyzed. The results revealed that the risk perception of an ageing society was ranked 7th out of 11 social risks. 'Whether or not one perceived he/she lived in an ageing society', 'an ageing society's effects on one's lives', and 'educational background' were the significant variables influencing the ordering of perceived risks of an ageing society. Also, perception of risk regarding an ageing society was significantly associated with 'relation of ageing society with his/her own life', 'an ageing society's effects on one's lives', and 'educational background'. Further discussion for the preparation of an ageing society was provided based on these results.

The results showed that the impact is greatest on education and literacy with a mean score of 3.98, followed by their social impact with 3.67 and their economic impact with 3.46. When subordinate items were analyzed it was found that the librarians perceived that the role that libraries are playing in the education area is expanding and their impact on reading and literacy is becoming greater and greater. Libraries were viewed as essential elements for education and the education system. When the difference in perception related to the impact of libraries was compared by types of libraries, the librarians in public libraries tended to rate their facilities higher than the librarians working in universities on most of the items.

This study investigates aggressive children's perceptions of their social acceptance in conjunction with peer ratings of social acceptance. The subjects were 520 children in the fifth through sixth grades. Children completed questionnaires that assessed self-perceptions of social acceptance. In addition, they completed peer nominations that assessed peer victimization, aggression, and peer acceptance, while their teachers rated children's externalizing problems. The results suggest that aggressive children's self-perceived social acceptance is inflated in relation to the ratings of their peers. For aggressive-rejected children, a highly positive self-perception was shown to be not a protective factor, but rather a defensive posture that places the children at added risk.
