  • In modern society, the importance of leisure has been already recognized widely. Recently, interest in participation in more active leisure activities is growing. Furthermore, environmental concerns stemmed from global warming came to the fore. Thus, the purpose of the current study was to examine the effect of recreation specialization representing people who are participating in more active leisure activities on environmental attitudes. A total of 393 college students participating in physically active club activities were selected for this study. Main findings were as follows; First, overall recreation specialization had strong positive effect on environmental attitude. Second, out of sub-factors of recreation specialization, affective specialization had positive influence on environmental attitude. Finally, out of sub-factors of affective specialization, attraction positively affected environmental attitude. This study suggests that individuals who participate in leisure activities more actively are more conscious of environmental problems.

  • The purpose of this study to compare the muscle performances (peak torque (PT), relative strength (RS), average power (AP), and total work (TW)) between taping group and non-taping group after 1 hour extensive exercise. Twenty healthy male subjects were evaluated in this study. Each subject was divided with taping(n=10) and non-taping group (n=10) randomly. Muscle performances were measured at 60 degree/sec and 180 degree/sec on the Cybex 770. The PT, RS, AP, and TW were measured before and after 1 hour extensive exercise. The results showed that taping group demonstrated significantly higher PT, RS, AP, and TW during ankle dorsiflexion and plantar flexion at 60 degree/sec than those of non-taping group, except for total work during ankle plantar flexion. At the 180 degree/sec, PT and RS was significantly higher during ankle dorsiflexion and plantar flexion in taping group than in non-taping group. This results suggest that lower leg taping could be useful to maintain muscle performances during sport activities.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the consumer buying behavior on rash guard for marine sports. Survey data collected from 105 men in activities of marin sports were analyzed by descriptive statistics, chi-square test, correlation analysis. The results of this study were as follows. First, the age showed a positive correlation in activity carrier. The 64.8% of subject enjoyed primarily the marin windsurfing sport. Second, the buying place was different according to the age group and activity carrier. Domestic brands were lower preference than foreign brands. And there was difference between the domestic and foreign brands in design and wearable sense. The coordinates of rash guard were to pursuit the overall beauty, considering the functional and physical protection. Therefore, it is necessary for the domestic brands to develop the products competing with the foreign brands.

  • The purpose of this study is to identify the types of injuries and the protective behaviors of soccer club members to prevent injuries, and promote health. Data was collected from 395 soccer club members from thirteen football clubs in Seoul and Gyeonggi province using question tool developed by researchers. Data analysis was performed using SPSS 23 for descriptive analysis and Chi-square test. The results showed that sport for soccer injuries was serious and medical expenses was significant. The demographic information showed that 50-year-old and over adults were vulnerable and had a disproportionate number of injuries. Those employees who helded administrative positions, white-collar and specialized jobs also experienced the high level of injury experience. Despite this many injuries, many respondents appeared to be lacking a protective actions, such as not wearing protective gear. It was critical for the club members to improve their knowledge and awareness of safe sports activities.

  • Since hundreds thousands of pedestrians are killed or injured in car accidents every year, a variety of research efforts have been performed to protect pedestrians in pedestrian-vehicle crashes. The IHRA reports that injuries on the child head, the adult head, and the adult lower leg/knee are the most critical in the crashes. Identifying the current status of international activities on pedestrian protection, this study, in particular, carries out headform impact test using selected domestic vehicles categorized by three groups - Sedan, SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle), and 1 Box (One Box) Vehicle. According to the valuable findings from the test results, this paper proposes a methodology under which the Korean Technical Regulation for protecting pedestrians in pedestrian-vehicle crashes will be developed.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this study was to examine immediate effects of 15 minutes plantarflexor static stretching in quite stance. Methods : Twenty-nine subjects were measured static balance during 1 minute in quite stance with eye closed condition before and after 15 minutes plantarflexor static stretching. Static stretching range was limited from $15^{\circ}$ to $20^{\circ}$ dorsiflexion within comfortable range. Results : The result of this study showed that postural sway significantly increased during 1 minute quiet stance after 15 minutes static stretching(p<.05). Before stretching, postural sway significantly decreased during 41-60 seconds compared to 0-20, 21-40 seconds(p<.05). After stretching, postural sway was decreased significantly over time 0-20, 21-40, and 41-60 seconds(p<.05). Conclusion : The prolong plantarflexor static stretching may require biomechanical, neurological adaptations prior to walking or sport activities for safety.

  • The mechanical study on the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament(ACL, PCL) is of importance because the recent increase of outdoor and indoor activities is directly related to causing sport injuries on the knee joints. Constitutive models for many biological tissues have been known as hyperelasticitic models. The elastic behavior of ACL and PCL may be described by the free energy function which accounts for the matrix and the collagen fibers. This paper addresses a comparison of different types of the free energy function to the existing results.

In other words, it was intended to investigate how the disabled people's intention to purchase products is formed by acting on various sports product advertisements that are seen during SNS activities. Accordingly, a survey was conducted on 300 people with disabilities participating in sports for the disabled. As a result, it was found that functional engagement had a positive effect on both advertising attitude and product trust, and advertising attitude and product trust had a positive effect on purchase intention. However, emotion engineering and communal engineering were found to have a negative effect on advertising attitudes and not on product trust.
