IT education can be summarized as persuading the educatee to accept IT. The persuasion is made by delivering the messages for how-to-use and where-to-use to the educatee, which leads formulation of a belief structure for using IT. Therefore, message based persuasion theory, as well as IT acceptance theories such as technology acceptance model(TAM), would play a very important role for explaining IT education. According to elaboration likelihood model(ELM) that has been considered as one of the most influential persuasion theories, people change attitude or perception by two routes, central route and peripheral route. In central route, people would think critically about issue-related arguments in an informational message. In peripheral route, subjects rely on cues regarding the target behavior with less cognitive efforts. Moreover, such persuasion process is not a one-shot program but continuous repetition with feedbacks, which leads to changing a belief structure for using IT. An educatee would get more knowledge and experiences of using IT as following an education program, and be more dependent on a central route than a peripheral route. Such change would reformulate a belief structure which is different from the intial one. The objectives of this study are the following two: First, an identification of the relationship between ELM and belief structures for using IT. Especially, we analyze the effects of message interpretation through both of central and peripheral routes on perceived usefulness which is an important explaining variable in TAM and perceived use control which have perceived ease of use and perceived controllability as sub-dimensions. Second, a longitudinal analysis of the above effects. In other words, change of the relationship between interpretation of message delivered by IT education and beliefs of IT using is analyzed longitudinally. For achievement of our objectives, we suggest a research model, which is constructed as three-layered. While first layer has a dependent variable, use intention, second one has perceived usefulness and perceived use control that has two sub-concepts, perceived ease of use and perceived controllability. Finally, third one is related with two routes in ELM, source credibility and argument quality which are operationalization of peripheral route and central route respectively. By these variables, we suggest five hypotheses. In addition to relationship among variables, we suggest two additional hypotheses, moderation effects of time in the relationships between perceived usefulness and two routes. That is, source credibility's influence on perceived usefulness is decreased as time flows, and argument quality's influence is increased. For validation of it, our research model is tested empirically. With measurements which have been validated in the other studies, we survey students in an Excel class two times for longitudinal analysis. Data Analysis is done by partial least square(PLS), which is known as an appropriate approach for multi-group comparison analysis with a small sized sample as like this study. In result. all hypotheses are statistically supported. One of theoretical contributions in this study is an analysis of IT education based on ELM and TAM which are considered as important theories in psychology and IS theories respectively. A longitudinal analysis by comparison between two surveys based on PLS is also considered as a methodological contribution. In practice, finding the importance of peripheral route in early stage of IT education should be notable.

Common belief in border regions holds that Mexican cross-border shoppers play a larger role in the regional economic base than they do and that NAFTA will provide a bigger stimulus to the regional economy than it is likely. In the regional economy than it is likely. In the first case, price elasticities are implicitly underestimated as highly inelastic and in the latter case, overestimated as highly elastic. This paper provides empirical evidence on the effects of distance and real exchange rates as price proxies on both field survey and population-imputed estimates of cross-border shopping. After estimating both distance-based and real exchange rate-based estimates of price elasticities of Mexican shopper demand for U.S. border-region goods, implications are obtained concerning the relative importance for U.S. border-regon economies of more distant Mexican markets, and the likely impacts of NAFTA.

In the past, management had been done over nurses rather than nursing and this brought the existence of general manager and as a result, nurse-manager's position and role are being threatend. For the up-bringing of nursing to firm professional recognition in the 21st century, it is firmly believed that nursing managers are to be in the position to play the role of general manager with professional qualifications; personal qualities and exact understandings on the role and function of each tier group under her/his management. 124 top(3 nursing superintendents), middle-range(23 supervisors) and unit managers(98 head-nurses) from 3 university hospitals in Seoul were interviewed in order to investigate their belief in the role, professional qualifications, personal qualities as well as the strategy for the development of their leadership qualities. The frame of reference for the interview were developed by the researcher in reference to relevant literatures. It was the common belief that qualifications o[ top-managers and mid-managers require an educational background of master's preparation or higher and clinical career for at least 15 years for top-managers and 5 -10 years for mid-managers. The personal qualities required by nurse managers include; leadership, initiative, judgement, self-confidence, flexibility, open-mindedness and strong motivation. Achievment-orientedness would greatly help them become excellent managers. On the other hand, [or more effective management, managers of each teir group are to fully understand their role and perform "their job responsibilities ie. Top managers are supposed to study with emphasis on organization, function and conceptual s~ill while mid-managers concentrate their effort on the development of skills for direction, guidance and human relationship. Unit managers also supposed to have abilities to manage their function with emphasis on development of clinical performance skill, for direction on operative aspects. The strategies for the development of leadership qualities include program-planning at individual instutional level as well as local, national and international level. Nurse-managers are to be motivated and encouraged to participate in the programs in order to effectively communicate within tier groups.oups.

The purpose of this study is to interpret the landscape meaning of village grove and then combines this interpretations with landscape planing if it is possible. So we chose four village groves among seven villlage interpretations with landscape planing if it is possible. So we chose four village groves among seven village groves in HAMPYUNG & YOUNGKWANG Province(CHONRANAMDO, KOREA). The reason why we did it is that the meaning of korean groves is divided into three types(Confucianism, Feng-shui, Native belief etc.) according to original planting reasons. This study was done mainly by both referring to the regional character of those types and examining the nature of grove meanings. As a result of this process, we are able to find three demensions which were explained by physical-ecological, user's behavioral and cultural meaning. 1. Physical landscape of village grove is composed with ecological meaning that is related with people's land use not only inside but outside of it. So this kind of ecological meaning is the mutual relation among physical elements of village groves, for example old high trees, surface, user's facilities, land use around a grove and soon. 2. User's behavior meaning of grove shows that it has high relation with physical dimension, for example distance and accessiblity to a grove, linkage with open space around a village and so on. User's behavior inside of grove is usually divided into three types(recreation, play, ritual services). Especially, we were able to find a tendency to have numerous people use in the case of a village grove well to preserve its ritual service. 3. Cultural meaning of grove has the holistic character which usually defines the regional theme of each village and village grove(Confucianism, Feng-shui, Native belief etc.). So, the Landscape meaning of village grove is not only a physical shape but a certain concept existing inside of village grove. This diversed meaning existing in a grove have a direct effect on good fortune or misfortune of a village and its dwellers.

African Americans in the United States suffer from many health disparities such as obesity, diabetes or hypertension. Lifestyle factors including diet and physical activity play an important role in prevention of these health conditions. The purpose of this research project was to assess beliefs, barriers and self-efficacy of eating a healthy diet and self efficacy of shopping for foods such as whole grains or foods designated as low fat or low sodium. Additionally, the objective was to assess beliefs about healthfulness, appropriate consumption, and protective aspect of specific foods including fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. The assessment was done using a survey instrument developed for this study. Data collection took place at two church locations. Data were obtained from 57 African Americans, mean age 50 years old (SD 12.70) completed the survey. The majority of respondents (58.1%) were females and most (75%) had at least some college education. Generally, benefits of eating healthy foods received considerably higher scores compared to barriers of eating healthy. A belief that healthy foods would help to take care of one's body received the highest mean score while a belief that healthy foods are too expensive had the highest score from all barriers. The results showed high self-efficacy of eating and purchasing healthy foods, high awareness of knowledge regarding foods associated with disease prevention but low awareness of recommendations for fruits and vegetables. The high scores for benefits, self-efficacy and knowledge regarding eating healthy foods did not translate into the perception of intake of such foods. Most participants believed that they do not eat enough of healthy foods. Interventions design to help African Americans make dietary changes should be culturally relevant and should involved working on a community level utilizing messages that are familiar and relevant to African Americans.

일반교육에서와 마찬가지로 영재교육이 성공적으로 이루어지기 위하여서는 영재학생들을 담당하고 있는 교사의 역할이 무엇보다도 중요하다. 현재 각급 학교에서 영재교육을 담당하고 있는 대부분의 교사들은 단 기간의 영재교육연수를 받은 후 영재학생들을 가르치고 있다. 이런 단기간의 영재교육연수만으로도 그동안 일반 학생들을 담당하고 있던 교사가 영재교육에 대한 나름대로의 철학을 정립하고 영재학생들을 효과적으로 가르칠 수 있을지는 의문이다. 최근 교사의 신념이 교수활동에 중요한 역할을 한다는 것을 시사하는 연구 결과가 많이 발표되고 있다. 이 논문은 현재 과학영재학교에서 과학과목을 가르치고 있는 교사들을 대상으로 사례연구를 수행하여, 영재교육에 대한 교사의 개인적 신념과 교수활동과의 관계를 파악하는데 그 목적이 있다. 이 연구에서 구체적 으로 다루고자 하는 문제는 다음과 같아. 첫째, 연구에 참여한 교사들의 영재교육에 대한 신념은 무엇인가? 둘째, 이들의 신념은 교수활동에 어떤 방식으로 반영 되고 있는가? 본 연구에 참여한 교사들은 과학영재학교 물리교사 2명, 생물교사2명, 기구과학교사1명으로 총 5명이다. 자료는 참여교사 당 4차시의 수업 관찰 및 녹화, 심층면담을 통해서 수집하였고, 모든수업과 면담자료를 전사 후에 분석하였다. 이외에 추가적인 자료는 이메일을 통해서 수집하였다. 참여교사들의 사례 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 참여 교사들의 영재교육에 대한 신념은 독립적으로 존재하는 것이 아니라 교수학습관과 교과목에 대한 신념이 서로 맞물려 하나의 신념체계를 형성하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 참여교사들의 신념체계는 '학생 중심', '교사 중심', '갈등 혼돈', 이 세 가지 형태로 나눌 수 있었다. '학생 중심' 신념체계를 가진 교사들은 수업진행 시 학생들의 질문이나 의견이 중요한 역할을 하게 하며, 학생들이 교사의 지적권위에 의지하지 않고 학생들 스스로 문제를 해결하도록 함으로써, 학생들이 수업에 주체가 되어 적극적으로 수업에 동참하게 하는 교실 참여구조를 보이고 있었다. '교사 중심' 신념체계를 가진 교사들은 주어진 시간 내에 많은 지식을 가르치는데 치중하고, 수업진행에서 학생보다 교사가 절대적인 역할을 수항하여 학생들이 주체적으로 수업을 이끌어나가기 보다는 교사의 지적권위에 학생들이 의존하는 수동적인 교실 참여구조를 보이고 있었다. '갈등 혼돈' 신념체계를 가진 교사는 자신만의 확고한 신념체계가 아직 형성되어 있지 않으며, 교수활동에서 전통주의 교수학습관이 많이 반영되고 있었다. 이 연구의 결과는 교사의 신념이 교수활동에 중요한 영향을 미친다는 사실을 다시 확인시켜준다. 특히, 영재학생 담당교사의 경우는 영재교육에 관한 신념뿐 아니라 교수학습관과 교과목에 대한 개인적 신념이 교수활동에 크게 영향을 미친다는 것을 보여준다. 이에 더하여 연구자는 본 연구결과를 바탕으로 영재교사교육에 대한 몇 가지 개선점을 제안하였다.
