Objective: This study aimed to examine the effects of maternal monitoring, shared activities with children, maternal education-oriented behavior, and allowing children to own smart-phones on smart media usage patterns based on smart-phone usage time and purposes among elementary school children. Methods: The participants were 1,315 second-grade elementary school children from the 9th wave of PSKC. Latent profile analysis and the three-step estimation approach were used to examine the determinants of the latent profile and the effects of maternal parenting on the profile. Results: Four latent profiles were identified: 'High-level usage & Entertaining oriented,' 'Moderate-level usage & Social/entertaining oriented,' 'Moderate-level usage & Learning oriented,' and 'Low-level usage.' Additionally, results showed that each profile can be predicted by maternal monitoring, education-oriented behavior, and permitting children to own smart-phones. Conclusion/Implications: Our outcomes suggested that it would be necessary to understand the smart media usage patterns of elementary school children, considering both the amount of time spent with smart media and purposes of uses. Further, it is helpful for mothers to monitor children's daily activities, support their educational activities, and take the role of gatekeeper for smart media as a way of appropriate guidance for their children's use of smart media.

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signals cannot be counterfeited and can easily acquire signals from both wrists. In this paper, we propose a method of generating a coupling image using direction information of ECG signals as well as its usage in a personal recognition method. The proposed coupling image is generated by using forward ECG signal and rotated inverse ECG signal based on R-peak, and the generated coupling image shows a unique pattern and brightness. In addition, R-peak data is increased through the ECG signal calculation of the same beat, and it is thus possible to improve the recognition performance of the individual. The generated coupling image extracts characteristics of pattern and brightness by using the proposed convolutional neural network and reduces data size by using multiple pooling layers to improve network speed. The experiment uses public ECG data of 47 people and conducts comparative experiments using five networks with top 5 performance data among the public and the proposed networks. Experimental results show that the recognition performance of the proposed network is the highest with 99.28%, confirming potential of the personal recognition.

The emergence of social media and technical development of smart phone allows media users to produce, share and spread a variety of contents, which results in a big change in their media usage pattern. Among those changes, the most prominent one is Youtube's powerful growth. Creators' enthusiastic content productions and users' active sharing actions are caused of the growth. Recently, creators give a powerful effect on users as social media influencer, and the practice of influencer marketing has been focused. This current study is examined the effects of parasocial interaction and relationship on brand attitude and purchase intention. Specially, parasical interaction is divided into identification, interest, and experience parasocial interaction, and the divisions of relationship are trustworthy, friendship, understanding, and commitment. As a result, interest and trustworthy are significant predictors of brand attitude. Also, experience parasocial interaction is negative and friendship is positive predictors of purchase intention. Theoretical and practical implication are discussed.

Smartphone addiction and internet addiction cause a serious negative social problem due to the spread of the new media which is combined with the ubiquitous function. To evaluate the degree of Internet addiction and smartphone addiction of college students in the nearby areas, K-scale of internet addiction self-diagnosis scale and S-scale of smartphone addiction self-diagnosis scale for Korean adults were applied. This study aims to develop the survey questions, which get the basic internet patterns and access the web site, and to find the hidden addicts that is not found by general K-scale and S-scale using computers and smartphones. The result shows that a method of addiction diagnosis using the tolerance degree which is calculated by smart phone's internet main activities and using time(anticipated and real time) apart from K-scale and S-scale. So hidden internet and smartphone addicts could be found through the SPSS statistical analysis program.
