This paper deals with factors discriminating mathematically gifted and non-gifted students. Discussion of some characteristics of mathematically gifted students is done in the first session. Several factors distinguish mathematically gifted from the non-gifted students. High mathematical creativity, high intelligence and opinion of teachers are some of the key factors that can be used for discriminating mathematically gifted and non-gifted students. Research studies have revealed that cognitive as well as affective factors will enhance giftedness. In this study the investigator wishes to look in detail about the characteristics of mathematically gifted students and how they can be identified. Anyway, teachers can change environmental factors and maximum outcome of giftedness can be ensured."

The premise of the intentional model of split-ticket voting is that some voters split their tickets simply because they prefer divided government and believe in constant "checks and balances." This article examines whether this premise stands firm in an emerging democracy like Taiwan. That is, by using survey data in Taiwan, we explore whether one's attitude toward divided or unified government is "real." We hypothesize that a citizen's attitude toward "checks and balances" is subject to change, and conditional on whether her preferred party is in power. Specifically, we speculate that a citizen would tend to hold the balancing perspective or favor divided government, if her preferred party is in opposition. However, if her preferred party becomes the ruling party, she would be more likely to oppose (hold) the balancing (non-balancing) perspective or favor unified government. We then utilize panel survey data embedded in Taiwan's Election and Democratization Studies (TEDS) to verify our hypothesis.

Incentives are often included in survey design because they are known to improve response rates, at least moderately. This paper describes the changes in the response rates when incentives were introduced into a longitudinal survey. The National Survey of Student Engagement was conducted annually at Indiana University Bloomington from 2000 through 2012. In 2010, incentives were introduced in an attempt to reverse the declining response rates. The incentives performed as expected, raising the AAPOR Response Rate 3 from 24% in 2009 to 36% in 2010. From 2010 through 2012, different types of incentives were tried but the response rates did not change substantially. The results from the changes in incentives can help survey practitioners decide the number and types of incentives that might be used effectively to increase response rates.

The rise and fall of social research methods rely on how much a certain method is able to appropriately reflect the change of society. The present research proposes new mobile surveying methods, considering the current and future trends in Korea. In particular, this research focuses on environmental pressure (time constraints, the presence of others and the place) as one of the major factors influencing the effects of survey modes. For example, landline surveys are conducted in the respondent's home, which is a private and fixed space. On the other hand, surveys on mobile phones can be conducted in diverse places with other people around. After sampling 500 landline respondents and 500 mobile phone respondents using a quota method, the same questionnaire was used for both the mobile and landline interviews. The findings are generally consistent with the literature supporting the data quality and comparability of the mixed mode survey. These results are encouraging for researchers designing surveys that feature mobile phone data collection.

It is expected that the change of industrial structure of Knowledge based economy, and service based economy would affect on economic life of physically-challenged person with no exceptions. There have been some former studies which have been misunderstood the employment of disabled due to the declining employment of the disabled and prejudice to the disabled based on biased perspective and public opinion. This study have analyzed the employment conditions of the ordinary workers and disabled workers out of those prejudices and biased opinions. Wage, economic activity ratio, age, educational background and industry those 5 parameters are brought for analyzing the two comparison group. Each parameter have compared based on the statistical data of ordinary workers and disabled workers for past 7 years. Weight between each parameter have been drawn by collecting the experts' opinion using AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process), and utility of employment of two comparison groups have been estimated through progress inclination of each parameter. Through the estimated outcome, present condition and controversial issues and way of improvement of domestic employment of ordinary workers and the disabled is mentioned.

This article examines the shifts in discourse surrounding Korean dramas in Malaysia, a core market for the Korean Wave (Hallyu), to understand the evolving perceptions and reception of Hallyu as a role model. Employing a discourse analysis of 14 Malaysian newspapers available online from 2016 to 2022, a period marked by the rise of over-the-top (OTT) media, the study reveals a significant transition in the prevailing narrative. From 2016 to 2019, the dominant discourse was characterized by conservatism and "cultural protectionism," reflecting a tension in attitudes towards the Korean Wave. However, from 2020 onwards, there was a gradual change in perceptions and attitudes, with an increasing emphasis on the economic and cultural value of Hallyu. This shift towards an "economic discourse" illustrates a growing perception of Korean dramas as an opportunity and catalyst for regional economic development in the Malaysian context, rather than a crisis. The study highlights the dynamic nature of the Korean Wave discourse in Malaysia and its evolution in response to the changing media landscape and socio-economic factors.

Leading up to the 2019 presidential election in Indonesia, campaigns have emerged through social media, particularly Twitter, using various hashtags, such as #2019GantiPresiden (2019 Change President) and #TetapJokowi (Always Jokowi). This paper tries to understand the presidential candidates' power map in forming opinions and influencing voter behavior by analyzing Twitter from August 6, 2018 to September 15, 2018, just before the beginning of the official campaign period, by searching for the keyword "pemilihan presiden RI Tahun 2019" (RI presidential election in 2019). According to our NodeXL's analysis, there were 1,650 active Twitter users talking about the 2019 presidential election. The 1,650 Twitter users have formed a communication network of 46,750 relationships formed from messages in the form of tweets, comments, and retweets. Our analysis found that those mentioning "pilihan presiden 2019" form large communication networks around four clusters: one for each of the two candidates (Jokowi and Prabowo) and two for opinion leaders who are undecided about the election (Gus Mus and Mas Piyu). GusMus is a religious leader, as an official of the PBNU Rais Syuriah (an Islamic organization) and has a large following both on and off Twitter. "MasPiyu" is an unidentified Twitter user; he only has a large following on Twitter, but does not have support offline.

소셜 네트워크 서비스(SNS)의 이용이 확산되어 감에 따라, 경영학적 관점에서 SNS를 활용하기 위한 노력들이 다양하게 전개되고 있다. 특히, 구전효과와 같은 마케팅 분야에서의 연구가 활발히 진행되는 상황이다. 본 논문에서는 SNS에서 지인이 작성한 구전 정보가 SNS 사용자의 제품에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향에 대하여 살펴보았다. 또한, 지인의 오피니언 리더십이 이러한 구전효과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 연구하였다. 51명의 페이스북 사용자를 대상으로 자신들의 지인 4인에 대하여 각각 설문 응답을 받아 분석을 실시하였다. 회귀분석 결과, SNS 환경에서도 구전효과가 존재한다는 것이 검증되었으며, 구전 정보를 작성한 지인의 오피니언 리더십이 이러한 구전효과에 양의 조절효과가 있다는 것이 검증되었다.

정보를 전달하고 여론을 형성하는 전통적인 매스미디어의 기능이 ICT 기술의 발전으로 소셜미디어를 통해 정보와 의견을 공유하는 환경으로 급격하게 변해 왔으며, 그 영향력을 더욱 강화시키고 있다. 즉, 일반 대중들이 소셜미디어를 통해 정치 사회 경제 변화에 대한 여론을 생산하고 공유하는 여론의 영향력이 갈수록 커지고 있는 것이 확인되고 있으며, 그 변화는 선거활동과 같은 정치 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 소셜미디어를 활용해서 대중들의 의사를 파악하고, 반영하기 위한 노력은 정치 영역뿐만 아니라 공공 영역에서도 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문은 교육분야 정책과정에서 소셜미디어 기반 여론을 활용하기 위한 가능성을 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 교육정책 중 소프트웨어교육에 관한 키워드를 중심으로 데이터를 수집하고, 문서의 주요 토픽과 토픽별 출현 확률, 토픽 트렌드를 분석하였다. 그 결과 '국내 컴퓨터 교육 시간'토픽이 전체의 43.99%를 차지하였으며, '프라임 사업 선정' 토픽이 36.81%, '인공지능 프로그램'토픽이 7.94%의 출현 확률을 나타내어, 대중의 소프트웨어교육 정책에 대한 주요 관심도를 파악할 수 있었다. 또한, 시기별 토픽 추세 및 연관성 있는 토픽간의 트렌드 비교 분석을 통하여 동일한 주제의 정책이라도 교육과정의 시기와 정책의 대상에 따라 유연한 정책수립이 필요하다는 시사점을 도출할 수 있었다.
