This study investigated the cognitive process of 5-year-old children, with a particular focus on gender, monthly age, and their tendencies towards hyperactivity through the performance of the Cognitive Assessment System (CAS; Das & Naglieri, 1997). The children with tendencies towards hyperactivity were identified based on Conners Teachers' Rating Scale (CTRS). The subjects were 75 five-year-old children in Seoul and surrounding metropolitan areas. Data were analyzed by means of descriptive statistics, an independent sample t-test, Pearson's correlation coefficient, one-way ANOVA, and by K-mean cluster analysis. Our results were as follows : (1) The CAS and CTRS' sub-factors were correlated negatively, except the positive correlation between planning factor and hyperactivity factor. (2) Girls exhibited significantly higher CAS scores in planning & sequential processing than boys. (3) The upper monthly age group (68-71 months) showed significantly higher score in terms of planning than the lower monthly age group (60-63 months). (4) The CAS scores of the children with tendencies towards hyperactivity was lower than that of normal children. (5) The CAS profile of 5-year-old children was divided into 4 groups with distinctive characteristics by means of K-mean cluster analysis.

Purpose - Social media platforms have presented individuals with an opportunity to create and maintain their social relationship through the use of social media services. However, such social relationship has a negative influence on users' interest in social media. Design/methodology - Using structural equation modeling, this study seeks to examines the effects of different social media conflicts (individual and social conflicts) on users' psychological internal state, especially user apathetic behavior Findings - The findings confirm that, among social media conflicts, social-related conflict, especially social interaction overload has a negative effect on cognitive resonance, while individual conflict has the highest effect on cognitive dissonance. Also, cognitive dissonance has a much greater effect than cognitive resonance on user resistance, this means that users' negative perception of social media has a greater influence on their resistance. Lastly, user's resistance was found to have a positive influence on user's apathetic behavior. Originality/value - In other to capture social media Apathetic behavior, this study focus on social media conflict perspective, which includes social-related conflict and individual conflict, which are found to influence users' internal states towards social media and further induce social media behavior. This study is unique because it is among the first to explore social media apathetic behavior by focusing on the influence of both external social media conflict and internal state. Also, this study proposed that social related conflict has a higher negative influence on WeChat user than individual related conflict.

This study explores the applicability of social capital theory in IT project management. Specifically, an empirical model is developed using different types of leadership competencies (emotional, cognitive, and social) as independent constructs impacting IT project performance. Social capital shared among team members are measured and placed as a mediating construct between leadership competencies and performance. Using PLS analysis of 120 data points collected through a survey of IT project participants in two large electronic manufacturers, direct and indirect impacts of leadership competencies are explicated. Research results reveal that emotional leadership competency seems to directly influence the project performance but not through team social capital, while social leadership competency seems to indirectly influence the project performance through team social capital but not directly onto the project performance. Cognitive leadership competency is the only leadership competency that maintains direct and indirect influence on project performance. Total effect of cognitive competency on project performance is almost two times larger than the total effect of emotional leadership competency and six times larger than the total effect of social leadership competency. Implications of findings are discussed at the end, and further studies are suggested.

Background: Few studies have examined the effects of a forward rotating shift pattern on police employee performance and well-being. This study sought to compare sleep duration, cognitive performance, and vigilance at the start and end of each shift within a three-shift, forward rotating shift pattern, common in United Kingdom police forces. Methods: Twenty-three police employee participants were recruited from North Yorkshire Police (mean age, 43 years). The participants were all working the same, 10-day, forward rotating shift pattern. No other exclusion criteria were stipulated. Sleep data were gathered using both actigraphy and self-reported methods; cognitive performance and vigilance were assessed using a customized test battery, comprising five tests: motor praxis task, visual object learning task, NBACK, digital symbol substitution task, and psychomotor vigilance test. Statistical comparisons were conducted, taking into account the shift type, shift number, and the start and end of each shift worked. Results: Sleep duration was found to be significantly reduced after night shifts. Results showed a significant main effect of shift type in the visual object learning task and NBACK task and also a significant main effect of start/end in the digital symbol substitution task, along with a number of significant interactions. Conclusion: The results of the tests indicated that learning and practice effects may have an effect on results of some of the tests. However, it is also possible that due to the fast rotating nature of the shift pattern, participants did not adjust to any particular shift; hence, their performance in the cognitive and vigilance tests did not suffer significantly as a result of this particular shift pattern.

인지 보존능력(CR)이란 보완적 뇌 연결망을 통해 인지적 수행력을 최적화 또는 극대화시키는 능력이다. CR은 노화에 따른 인지-언어 능력의 저하를 완화 또는 지연시키는 데 기여한다. CR 및 정상 노년층의 인지-언어 능력 간 상관성을 체계적으로 살펴본 국내 메타분석 연구는 거의 드문 편이다. 본 연구에서는 2000년 이후 게재된 국내외 문헌 중 총 32개 논문을 대상으로 메타분석을 실시하여 상관성을 체계적으로 검증하고자 하였다. 그 결과, CR의 유형은 교육수준과 인지자극 활동, 다중언어 사용, 직업 순으로 많았고, 인지-언어의 하위 영역 중에는 기억력, 전반적 인지능력, 언어능력이 대다수를 차지하였다. 또한, CR과 인지-언어 능력 간 상관성은 '중간' 정도였으며, 기억력, 언어능력 등이 여러 CR 유형과 유의한 상관성을 보였다. 본 연구는 CR이 정상 노년층의 인지-언어 능력에 미치는 효과성을 체계적으로 분석함으로써 증거 기반적 자료를 제공할 수 있다는 점에서 의의가 있다.

IT서비스는 지식서비스의 일종으로서 다른 분야의 전문가들이 모여서 함께 프로젝트를 수행하는 관계로, 제대로 된 성과를 내기 위해서는 구성원들간의 신뢰의 형성이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 기존 IT서비스 연구들에서 다루었던 신뢰의 내부구조를 좀 더 세분화하여 인지적 신뢰와 정서적 신뢰로 구분하여 프로젝트 성과에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 인지적 신뢰에 영향을 미치는 선행요인으로는 기술과 업무전문성을, 정서적 신뢰에 영향을 미치는 선행요인으로서는 사회적 유대감과 관계갈등을 선정하였다. 팀워크에서 중요한 커뮤니케이션으로는 두 가지 신뢰에 다 영향을 미치는 것으로 가설을 설정하였다. 연구모델의 실증을 위하여 IT프로젝트팀 리더를 대상으로 설문지법으로 자료를 수집하였고, 수집된 자료는 Smart PLS를 사용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 인지적 신뢰에 영향을 주는 요인으로 업무전문성이 기술전문성에 비해서 상대적으로 큰 영향력을 미쳤고, 갈등은 정서적 신뢰에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 커뮤니케이션은 인지적 신뢰와 정서적 신뢰에 각각 긍정적 영향을 미치고 있었으며, 더불어 인지적 신뢰가 정서적 신뢰형성의 선행요인으로 확인되었다. IT프로젝트 성과에는 인지적 신뢰뿐만 아니라 정서적 신뢰도 양(+)의 영향을 미치고 있으므로 성공적인 프로젝트를 위해서는 정서적 신뢰도 간과해서는 안 될 것이다. IT프로젝트의 성공요인으로의 인지적 신뢰와 정서적 신뢰가 각각 하나의 영향력을 가진 요인임을 알아냄으로서 향후 기업에서는 IT프로젝트 구성원들간의 신뢰형성에 노력을 기울이되 인지적 신뢰가 정서적 신뢰의 매개요인임을 고려하여 구체적인 커뮤니케이션을 진행하는 것이 바람직할 것이다.

Objective: Cognitive-motor trainings had a positive impact on cognitive function and dual-task trainings led to improvements of global cognitive function. The brain activity of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) is another indicator that can infer cognitive function. This study aims to confirm the usability of the interactive system cognitive-motor training program and the changes in the prefrontal cortex through training. Design: Cross-sectional study Methods: In this study, two cognitive tasks were randomly applied to 20 adults as cognitive-motor training using an interactive system, and the same task was performed using the original method. During all tasks, the brain activity of the prefrontal cortex was measured by the change in oxyhemoglobin (HbO) in real-time using Functional Near-Infrastructure. After performing the tasks, the usability of the developed interactive system was evaluated by a usability questionnaire which consists of five items, and each item consists of a 7-point Likert scale that responds from 1 point to 7 points. Results: The HbO levels were increased during cognitive task performance than at the resting phase. And evaluating the usefulness of the interactive system, a questionnaire result showed that it would be useful for cognitive-motor programs. Conclusions: The cognitive-motor training using the interactive system increased the activity of the prefrontal cortex, and the developed wearable sensor-based interactive system confirmed its usefulness.

Cooperative spectrum sensing has been considered as a promising approach to improve the sensing performance in distributed cognitive radio networks. However, there may exist some selfish secondary users (SUs) who are unwilling to cooperate. The presence of selfish SUs could cause catastrophic damage to the performance of cooperative spectrum sensing. Following the social perspective, we propose a Social Tie-based Incentive Scheme (STIS) to deal with the selfish problem for cooperative spectrum sensing in distributed cognitive radio networks. This scheme inspires SUs to contribute sensing information for the SUs who have social tie but not others, and such willingness varies with the strength of social tie value. The evaluation of each SU's social tie derives from its contribution for others. Finally, simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

The cognitive radio (CR) technique is a useful tool for improving spectrum utilization by detecting and using the vacant spectrum bands in which cooperative spectrum sensing is a key element, while avoiding interfering with the primary user. In this paper, we propose a novel cluster-based cooperative spectrum sensing scheme in cognitive radio with two solutions for the purpose of improving in sensing performance. First, for the cluster header, we use the double adaptive energy thresholds and a multi-bit quantization with different quantization interval for improving the cluster performance. Second, in the common receiver, the weighed HALF-voting rule will be applied to achieve a better combination of all cluster decisions into a global decision.
