동아시아 경제권의 국가들 중에서도 한국과 중국의 잠재적 기업가정신을 측정하고 양국 잠재적 기업가정신에 영향을 미치는 문화적 요인에 대해 비교하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 잠재적 기업가라고 여길 수 있는 한국과 중국의 대학생들을 대상으로 하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 210명의 한국 대학생들과 157명의 중국 대학생들이 본 설문에 응하였다. 설문은 크게 두 가지 영역으로 구분되어 있는데, 개인의 기업가적 지향성을 측정하기 위한 질문과 개인의 기업가적 성향에 영향을 주는 문화적 요인들을 측정하는 질문으로 나누어져 있다. 개인의 기업가적 지향성을 측정하기 위하여 자기통제력(Locus of Control)과 혁신성(Innovativeness)을 묻는 세부 질문을 만들었고, 문화적 요인을 측정하기 위해서 대학생들이 느끼는 경제적자유(Economic Freedom), 개인주의(Individualism) 그리고 불확실성 회피성(Uncertatinty Avoidance)의 정도를 묻는 질문을 만들어 설문을 실시하였다. 첫 번째 연구가설은 '한국의 대학생들이 경제적 자유, 개인주의, 불확실성 회피성이 더 높다고 인식한다'이며, 두 번째 연구가설은 '경제적 자유가 보장되고 더 개인주의적인 문화에서 기업가적 성향이 더 높게 나타나며 확실성 회피성이 높을수록 기업가적 성향은 더 낮게 나타난다, 세 번째 연구가설은 '한국 대학생들의 기업가적 지향성 정도가 중국 대학생들의 그것보다 더 높다'이다. 설문조사는 가설과는 다른 결과를 보여주고 있다. 중국의 대학생들이 한국의 대학생들 보다 자국의 문화에 대해 더 경제적 자유가 보장되며 개인주의적이라는 인식을 가지고 있었다. 불확실성 회피성에 있어서는 가설과 동일하게 중국 대학생들보다 한국의 대학생들이 자국에 대해 불확실성 회피성이 더 높다고 인식하고 있다. 또한 양국의 대학생들은 기업가정신 형성에 있어서 각각 다른 문화적 변수에 의해서 영향을 받는다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 한국의 대학생들은 경제적 자유의 정도에 의해 영향을 받으며, 중국의 대학생들은 불확실성 회피성에 의해서 영향을 받는다. 마지막으로, 세 번째 가설과 달리 기업가적 지향성은 중국의 대학생들이 한국의 대학생들보다 더 높은 수치를 보인다. 혁신성에 있어서는 양국 대학생들 간의 유의한 차이를 발견하기 어려웠으나 내재적 통제력에 있어서 중국의 대학생들은 한국의 대학생들보다 높은 수치를 나타냈다.

This study aims to investigate the effects of socioscientific issues (SSI) instruction on promoting college students' character and values as citizens, and to compare the effects based on the psychological factor - idiocentrism and allocentrism. Thirty-one college students who enrolled in the SSI course participated in this study. The SSI course provided the students with opportunities to explore various aspects of five topics, to express and share their own opinions, and to identify reasonable alternatives. The students with distinct tendencies were classified into two groups (i.e. idiocentric and allocentric groups) based on the personal value orientation scores before the instruction, and they responded to the questionnaire to examine their character and values as citizens before and after the instruction. The results showed that the students' social and moral compassion and socioscientific accountability improved significantly after the SSI course. The overall effects of the SSI program on students' character and values were not significantly different between two groups. However, the post-mean score of the allocentric group in socioscientific accountability was higher than the one of the idiocentric group. This study shows that SSI instruction could positively affect character development regardless of psychological tendencies, and could be implemented in the science classroom as a good instructional approach to integrating science education and character education.

This study is aimed to compare individualism and collectivism propensity of married immigrant women in a Korean rural area. By result of comparison on nationality, the level of collectivism was higher than it of individualism in every country, but the level of collectivism among the countries was no significant difference. The level of individualism among the countries was difference significantly, and the level of individualism of Chinese is most high but it of Japanese is most low. By logistic regression analysis the probability to be involved in the group that level of individualism is high was heightened as respondent have no religion or their's satisfaction on rural life increase. The level of horizontal propensity was higher than it of vertical propensity both individualism and collectivism. But the result of comparison on nationality, difference between horizontal and vertical propensity was no significant. Besides of these results, practical implications were discussed.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of mental similarity and internal locus of control, which are the characteristics of an organizational member, and individualism and power distance, which are an individual's sense of value, on mentoring function in an informal mentoring relationship of ROK army. For corroborative analysis, the sample was collected from 547 questionnaires, which contain validate data out of 1,000 questionnaires distributed to junior officers working at ROK army's division level unit. The data proved that, First, mental similarity and internal locus of control positively effected upon mentoring function. Second, individualism positively effected upon mentoring function while power distance had a negative effect on it. Thus in an informal mentoring relationship of ROK army, a mentee perceived as he or she gains more support from mentoring function when a mentee recognizes higher mental similarity, individualism, and is in an internal locus of control. On the other hand, a mentee who perceived higher power distance felt as he or she gets less support from mentoring function. Through this investigation, the significance of influential components of mentoring function in a mentoring relationship of ROK army was demonstrated, and these research results could be highly supportive for a future research based on mentoring relationship.

This paper aimed to investigate the difference of clothing behavior and desired image according to individualism-collectivism cultural tendency for women. A survey of 217 adult women was conducted from November to December 2006, mainly in Daegu. Reliability, frequency, percentage, factor analysis, ANOVA, t-test, Tukey test and an -analysis were used for data analysis by using SPSS WIN 11.0 package. The results were as follows: First, while the group with a higher tendency toward individualism valued personality and convenience above everything else, the group which has a higher tendency to collectivism disposition has a much greater interested in conformity and brand-orientation. Second, while the group with a higher tendency toward individualism pursued an bold image for their clothing, the group with a higher tendency toward collectivism preferred a feminine and plain image. Third, regarding the individualism-collectivism and demographic peculiarity, there were no significant differences between the two groups according to marital status and average monthly income.

The purpose of this study was to examine the importance of personal attributes as they related to developing first impressions and managing group acceptance in the context of sorority recruitment process. Specifically, we examined how certain personal characteristics of a sorority member were related to her use of a potential member's clothing and appearance as non-verbal cues during the member selection process. The characteristics identified through the literature review were materialism, fashion clothing involvement, and proximity of clothing to self. A questionnaire was distributed to members of two sorority houses at a southeastern university in the United States. A total of 140 US sorority members participated in the study. The results showed that a member's satisfaction with her chapter, her level of participation, and her length of membership in the chapter had no relation with her tendency to base her member selection on clothing and appearance. However, members' use of clothing and appearance as guiding their member selection decisions was related to other individual characteristics selected for the study(materialism, fashion clothing involvement, and proximity of clothing to self). Fashion clothing involvement and proximity of clothing to self(clothing for acceptance) were most significantly related to clothing-based member selection. Partial correlations were also produced to examine the mediating role of clothing-based impression formation.

The recent findings proposed and found that people from Eastern cultures could experience strong cognitive dissonance only when certain conditions, such as other-related choices, normative attitudes, were fulfilled. Even though such interesting findings are intuitively convincing on the basis of common understanding of individualist and collectivist cultures, the psychological mechanisms underlying the cultural variations of cognitive dissonance remain untested. The present study examined the role of attitude importance in cognitive dissonance by using the free-choice paradigm. After completing a pretest of individualism-collectivism scales, 60 college students ranked their preference to 10 items of either beverage or traffic regulations twice. Between the two ranking tasks, they were asked to engage in behavioral selection among their 5^th and 6^th preferred items. They also rated the personal importance of the preference. The results showed that attitude importance was positively correlated with attitude change and it could play a major role in experiencing cognitive dissonance beyond cultural orientation and situational factors. The current findings were discussed in universality of cognitive dissonance across cultures.
