TFT Color LCD 가 보급화되면서 모바일 폰 뿐만 아니라 우리 생활에 친근하게 사용되고 있는 가전 제품 인터페이스 영역에도 점차 그 활용범위가 넓어지고 있는 추세이다. 또, 가전 제품의 역할이 단순히 식품을 보관하거나 집안의 온도를 시원하게 바꿔주는 기본 기능 중심에서, 가족간 커뮤니케이션을 돕는 역할 또는 다양한 정보를 전달해주는 엔터테인먼트 기능 중심으로 변화해 가고 있다. 최근 이러한 복잡한 기능을 편리하게 수행하면서도 동시에 가족 모두가 사용할 수 있는 친근한 인터페이스 디자인을 개발하는데 있어서 캐릭터라는 소재는 유용하게 활용 되고 있다. 가전 제품에서 캐릭터의 활용 부분은 첫 번째, 사용자에게 피드백 정보를 좀더 친근하게 전달하는 것이다. 제품의 상태나 어떤 동작에 대한 수행 결과를 텍스트 혹은 아이콘 위주의 전달 방법보다 좀더 친근하게 표현할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 두 번째는 프로그래스 애니메이션 부분이다. 제품이 어떤 기능을 수행하고 있는지 캐릭터의 동작을 통해 명확하게, 그리고 재미있게 전달해주는 기능이다. 세 번째는 메시지 전달 측면이다. 가족간의 메모 전달이나 생일, 기념일 등에 대한 축하 메시지를 캐릭터가 메신저 역할을 함으로써 좀더 밝고 경쾌한 환경을 만들어준다. 마지막으로, 대기화면이나 화면보호기 부분이다. 제품을 사용하지 않는 상태에서 사용자가 원하는 이미지로 설정이 가능하도록 하여 개인화 부분을 충족시킬 수 있다. 이와 같이, 멀티미디어 기기나 모바일 폰과 같은 개인 중심형 제품이 아닌 가족 중심형 가전 제품의 인터페이스 디자인에는 친근한 이미지가 부가된 캐릭터의 활용이 사용성은 물론 감성적 측면에서도 좀더 사용자 중심의 인터페이스 디자인을 완성해 가는데 긍정적인 역할을 수행할 것이다.

최근 급격한 사회발전으로 인한 인간소외, 과도한 업무 스트레스, 가족관계 등의 사회 문제가 야기되고 있으며, 이는 전문적인 심리상담 도움을 받아야 할 만큼 심각한 정신건강의 위기상태라 할 수 있다. 이에 따라 심리검사에 대한 중요성이 부각되고 있음에도 불구하고, 검사자의 전문적 훈련정도에 따른 해석 차이로 인하여 검사의 신뢰성 저하와 같은 다양한 문제점이 발생되고 있다. 또한 심리검사는 특성상 검사자와 피험자간의 커뮤니케이션을 통해 이루어지는 주관적인 검사이므로 의사소통에 문제가 있는 중증 장애우 및 외국인, 영유아 피험자들의 검사가 힘든 실정이다. 이에 본 논문에서는 사용자 뇌파 패턴분석을 통해 기존의 주관적인 심리검사 기법을 객관화함으로써 뇌파측정만으로도 심리검사가 가능한 BCI기반 심리검사 시스템을 구현한다.

This paper attempts to divide the narrative into three levels and review the approach methodology to understand Princess Bari as a narrative. If the stratification of the narrative, the analysis of each levels, and the integrated approach to them are made, this can contribute to suggesting new directions and ways to understand and study Princess Bari. The story level of Princess Bari, the surface structure, is shaped by the space movement and the chronological sequential structure of the life task that started from the birth of the main character. This story shows how a woman who was denied her existence by her father as soon as she was born finds an ontological transformation and identities through a process. Especially, the journey of finding identity is mainly formed through the events that occur through the relationship with family members. This structure, which can be found in the narrative level, forms a deep structure with the oppositional paradigm of family members' conflict and reconciliation, life and death. The thought structure revealed in this story is the problem of life is the problem of family composition, and the problem of death is also the same. In response to how to look at the unified world of coexistence of life and death, this tradition group of myths makes a relationship with man and God. This story is mainly communicated in the Korean shamanistic ritual(Gut) that sent the dead to the afterlife. Although the shaman is the sender and the participants in the ritual are the receivers, the story is well known a message that does not have new information repeated in certain situations. In gut, the patrons and participants do not simply accept the narrative as a message, but accept themselves as codes for reconstructing their lives and behavior through autocommunication. By accepting the characters and events of as a homeomorphism relationship with their lives, people accept the everyday life as an integrated view of life and death, disjunction and communication, conflict and reconciliation, and the present viewpoint. It can not change the real world, but it changes the attitude of 'I' about life. And it is a change and transformation that can be achieved through personal communication like the transformation of Princess Bari into god in myth. Thus, Princess Bari shows that each meaning and function in the story level, composition level, and communication level is related to each other. In addition, the structure revealed by this narrative on three levels is also effective in revealing the collective consciousness and cultural system of the transmission group.

The purpose of this study was to provide information to prevent and manage the risk factors of adolescent health behavior by identifying the relationship between smartphone use and the intake of sugar-sweetened beverages of Korean adolescents. Data from the 2017 Korean Youth Risk Behavior Survey of 54,603 adolescents was used for this study. The study examined the variables related to general characteristics, smartphone use, and intake of sugar-sweetened beverages. Complex sample analysis was done by performing multivariate logistic regression analysis. Smartphone usage time (aOR = 2.19, 95%CI = 2.05-2.34) and smartphone use for communication (aOR = 1.51, 95%CI = 1.43-1.60) were associated with three or more times per week of SODA beverage intake. In addition, adolescents who experienced conflicts with family were associated with SODA beverage intake (aOR = 1.42, 95%CI = 1.33-1.51), conflict with friends was associated with sweet beverage intake (aOR = 1.39, 95%CI = 1.30-1.49), and study problems were associated with SODA beverage intake (aOR = 1.79, 95%CI = 1.54-2.07). Therefore, controlling the use of Smartphones in schools and homes and creating an environment in which communication skills can be learned can help adolescents reduce the intake of sugar-sweetened beverages. Positive relationships with family and friends, and appropriate management of academic stress can help reduce inappropriate health behaviors associated with smartphone use by adolescents.

The current study explored the relative effects of reciprocal/empathic type on messages appealing to help patients with Lou Gehrig's disease and their family. By this, we attempted to examine the applicable scope of the reciprocal type, a way of appealing rationally in the delivery of helping messages. The focus was on the moderation of empathic concern trait, a representative altruistic personality. Conducted as the online experiment, empathic concern trait was measured in the first stage, and the helping messages presented each by reciprocal/empathic type were shown and evaluated in the second stage after about 7 days. The data of 134 people were finally analyzed, excluding insincere participants. As a result, the relative advantage of empathic type was shown, but it was only limited to the subject attitude. In the result of the interaction, the reciprocal type were as much or more influential as the empathic type for the individuals high in empathic concern trait.

Amid growing social interest in child abuse, and announced the seriousness of child abuse crimes and aroused public interest in related issues. Based on true stories and characters, both films created unique narratives about child abuse cases, but drew on the traditional representation and discursive construction of child abuse news articles. By setting the stepmother as the perpetrator and the father as the neglecter, the gender role of women as primary caregiver was reconfirmed and the stereotypical image of the 'evil stepmother' in popular narratives was exploited. The cinematic reenactment of the evil stepmother not only highlighted the normative family discourse, but also reinforced the maternal myth by emphasizing the binary opposition between the evil stepmother and the lost birth mother.

As our current society is increasingly demanding a Home Economics Education curriculum that projects the recent changes around us, in this study we hope to present which fundamental materials would be needed in Home Economics Education to satisfy the needs of learners in schools and to Provide actual practice and information crucial to live in the future society. A reform of the present Home Economics regime is needed, and as a result of critical analysis on the subject we found that it did not portray the plurality of family relations and cultures owing to the sudden changes in society, nor did it present an active curriculum that could be applied to the changes in social environments. This was partly because of the matter of establishing a proper academic identity of Home Economics Education, the matter of specializing curriculums and general methods of applying them, the academic conservatism in the field of Home Economics, and ineffectiveness of teacher reeducation as well as a lack of leadership on the part of administrative departments. The objective and content structure of Home Economics Education should be reformed to adjust to the current society by taking an approach focused on family and the consumer. In the family part, curriculums should include the formations of various family structures and home cultures to portray a more open concept of family, which should promote gender equality in matters of child upbringing and housework. From a humanitive perspective, Home Education should he dealing with the mediation and decision-making of individuals caught between social advancement and household functions. their communication skills in choosing and deciding, and furthermore their participation in their living communities which may present more material basis of critical scientific philosophies to be discussed in class. Additional themes such as sustainable consumption for earth environment and resource preservation and ways of application to rebuild our diminishing society must also be included in the education curriculum. We should look to find a more integrated approach to Home Economics Education rather than the present field based and specialized regime.
