This paper presents a series of path models that were developed to test whether financial risk tolerance mediates the association between the following four variables and investing behavior: (a) male and married, (b) female and married, (c) male and single, or (d) female and single. Data for this study were obtained from a proprietary consumer survey of risk-tolerance attitudes. Four path models were developed to test relationships among the variables in 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011. These years were chosen to represent the depth and recovery periods in the Great Recession. The total number of respondents was 29,641. Findings showed that financial risk tolerance was positively associated with risky investing behavior (i.e., equity ownership) in each of the four periods. The associations among the gender-marital status variables and investing behavior were mixed; however, findings did indicate that risk tolerance mediates these relationships by sometimes amplifying and occasionally attenuating risky behavior. Based on the findings, implications and limitation are presented.

Empirical analysis was based on the data of 692 hotel employees from Seoul and Gyung-gi province. To test the relationship between job characteristics and service quality, multiple regression analysis was applied, and hierarchial regression analysis(Cohen & Cohen, 1983) applied to test the moderating effects of gender and tenure. Multiple regressional analysis showed that job importance, job variety, and feedback had an positive impact on tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, but autonomy had a negative impact on tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance. Hierarchical regressional analysis showed that gender had moderating effects on 4 relationships between job characteristics and service quality, and tenure had moderating effects on 3 relationships.

Transsexual individuals with gender dysphoria or gender identity disorder are rare, with a prevalence reported to range from 0.002% to 0.014%. Studies have shown that mastectomy yields significant improvements in body image and self-esteem in female-to-male transsexual patients. In patients with grade III breast ptosis, mastectomy with a nipple-areolar complex (NAC) graft is the most commonly used technique, although it has several disadvantages. In the case described herein, a bilateral mastectomy preserving the NAC in an inferior pedicle was performed. Additionally, a thin superior thoracic dermal-fat flap was preserved and eventually sutured at the previous inframammary fold, preventing an inverted T scar. This case shows the advantage of this technique for preserving the blood supply and innervation of the NAC, with a low hypopigmentation risk. Furthermore, in this technique, the patch effect does not impair the results of the NAC graft, and there is no need to use an inverted T scar that may result in thoracic feminization.

얼굴 자극의 성별 및 종족과 라인업 절차에 따른 얼굴 인식에서의 차이를 알아보기 위해 두 편의 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 1에서 사용된 자극은 동남아시아인 및 동북아시아인 남성의 정면 얼굴 이미지였으며 얼굴 자극의 종족과 실험참가자의 종족이 동일할 때 얼굴 인식이 향상될 수 있는지(동종족 우세 효과)를 알아보았다. 실험 2에서는 동북아시아인 남성 및 여성의 정면 얼굴을 자극으로 사용하여 참가자와 얼굴 자극의 성별이 같을 때 얼굴 인식이 더 정확한지(동성별 우세효과) 알아보았다. 두 실험에서 실험참가자는 모두 동북아시아인이었으며 라인업 절차의 동시제시 조건과 순차제시 조건을 사용하여 얼굴 자극 제시 방법에 따른 차이도 비교하였다. 실험결과 동종족 우세 효과와 라인업 절차에 따른 얼굴 인식 정확도의 차이는 관찰되지 않았으나 표적이 동남아시아인 자극일 때 얼굴 인식 정확률이 높았다. 흥미롭게도, 동성별 우세 효과는 여성 실험참가자에 한해 관찰되었다. 이러한 결과를 통해 얼굴 인식이 주의에 의해 영향을 받을 수 있을 가능성에 대해 논의하였다.

본 연구는 남성 노인의 성역할태도와 우울의 관계를 확인하고, 두 변수의 관계에서 가족갈등대처방식의 매개효과를 검증하고자 하였다. 분석에는 한국복지패널(KoWePS) 9차년도 자료의 65세 이상 남성 노인 1,955명의 응답을 최종 분석에 활용하였으며 빈도분석, 기술통계, 상관분석, 다중회귀분석을 통한 매개효과 분석을 실시하였다. 또한 가족갈등대처방식의 매개효과의 유의성을 검증하고자 부트스트래핑을 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 남성노인의 전통적인 가부장적 성역할태도는 우울에 정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 가족갈등 대처방식은 성역할태도와 우울의 관계를 매개하는 변인으로 확인되었다. 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 남성 노인의 우울을 경감시키기 위한 방안으로 성역할태도의 재구조화와 가족갈등대처방식의 개선을 제시하였고, 이에 대한 학문적, 실천적 함의를 논의하였다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze children's clothing preference on animated character color. The experimental materials developed for this study were a set of stimulus and response scales. The stimuli were 30 color pictures, in which gender (boy, girl), type of character (Mickey Mouse, Mini Mouse), hue of character (red, yellow, green, blue, purple), and tone of character (vivid, light, dark) were manipulated. The 5-point scale was used to evaluate children's clothing preferences. Data were obtained from 300 boys and 300 girls living in Seoul, Busan, Jinju, and Changwon in April 2010. For data analysis, ANOVA and Duncan-test were used by using SPSS program. Results of this study were as follows. Tone of character had an independent effect on children's clothing preference. Interaction effects of gender and hue of the character were found. Interaction effects of gender and tone of the character were found. Interaction effects of type and tone of the character were found.

This study examines the accounting students' level of moral development at the university. In this study, we focused on the effects of ethics subject and gender on moral development. Therefore, we compare the moral development of male and female students. We evaluated 216 students in Cognitive Moral Development (CMD) from 17 universities in Indonesia. We measured CMD with the Defining Issues Test (DIT) model developed by Rest in 1986. The findings show that there is no difference in DIT scores between students who have taken the ethics subject and who have not taken. We also confirm female students have a higher DIT score than male students. Our study results show that gender plays an important role in the ethics issue. Our study strengthens the previous research about the effect of ethics study and ethics courses on CMD. This study has an implication for ethics education in university wherein the curriculum or the system should be prepared carefully. Although the results of this study did not show that ethics subject has a strong impact on students' CMD, we still believe that the ethics course plays a significant role in the accountants' morals. For that reason, we argue that morals need time to be developed, and cannot be taught in a short-term course. Future research is needed to explore more about this issue.

This study examines the relationship between gender diversity (women on the board and women on the audit committee) and a firm's financial stability. The ordinary least square analysis was used to determine the relationship. To measure the financial stability of Malaysian suspect firms, i.e., firms with the lowest positive earnings, the Altman (1993) Z-Score measurement was utilized. The results indicate that women on the board are significantly and negatively associated with the firm's financial stability. That is, they are related to low financial stability, which contradicts the agency and resource dependence theories. Regarding women directors on the audit committee, there is no significant relationship with financial stability, meaning that they cannot protect the company against financial distress. These results are robust and do not change when using different measurements of gender diversity, one-year lag of independent variables, and other methods of analysis, namely random effect panel data. This study is the first to alert policymakers, stakeholders, researchers, and society in general to the need to re-evaluate and strengthen the role of women directors in improving firms' financial stability, particularly in emerging economies like Malaysia.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the statistical differences and the correlation between eco-friendly attitudes and clothing selection criteria according to gender and age. 150 people in their 20s to 50s were surveyed for this study. The results were as follows. The factors to eco-friendly attitudes were drawn as seven factors. The difference analysis result for eco-friendly attitude according to gender and age showed a significant difference. The results of factor analysis showed that there were four factors in clothing selection criteria. The difference analysis result of clothing selection criteria according to gender showed a significant difference. The analysis results for the effect of eco-friendly attitude on clothing selection criteria showed that the eco-friendly group recognized health and eco-friendly property as more important clothing selection criteria, but the non-eco-friendly group recognized aesthetic as more important one. The result of this study will help product planners in the clothing product development and the market segmentation according to eco-friendly attitude.

Objectives: This study was to examine the association between structural and functional characteristics of social network and self-rated health in middle-aged Korea population. We also explored gender difference in the relationship between social network and health. Methods: Data were collected from individuals aged 40-69 years old participating in the 2005 survey for the Korean Genome & Epidemiology Study. We examined the association between social network, social support, social conflict and self-rated health using multiple logistic regression analysis stratified by gender. Results: The extent and contact frequency of close people, and social participations were associated by not only the positive function but also the negative function of social network. Both the positive and negative functions of social network affected self-rated health. The relationship between the function of social network and health showed a gender difference: only positive function was significantly associated with health in men while only negative function had significant relationship with health in women. Conclusions: Social support and social conflict affected the health in both genders through different ways. The ambivalent effect of social network on health should be explored further.
