The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the time spent on violent internet games and game overindulgence on aggressive behavior exhibited by elementary school-aged boys and to investigate the mediating effects of self-control on the relationship between children's game overindulgence and their aggressive behavior. The subjects of this study were 118 fourth to sixth grade boys from five elementary schools. The instruments used were the aggression subscale of the Korean-Youth Self Report (Oh, Ha, Lee, & Hong, 2001), a questionnaire of the time spent playing violent internet games developed by the authors, the Internet Game Addiction Scale for Children (Kim, Lee, Kim, Kim, & Kim, 2006) and the Self-Control Scale (Nam, 1999). The data were analyzed by means of a Structural Equation Model (SEM). The results were as follows. First, children's self-control mediated the relationship between game overindulgence and aggressive behavior. Second, the amount of time spent playing violent internet games had no effect on children's aggressive behavior.

본 논문에서는 유아부터 노인까지 간단한 조작법으로 쉽게 즐길 수 있는 게임을 만들고자 한다. Space Bar를 주로 이용하는 One-Button방식의 게임으로 연타를 하는 미니게임들이지만 '순발력'과 '정확도'를 필요로 하는 게임이다. 다른 게임들은 화려한 이펙트와 다양한 조작법으로 흥미를 이끌어 내기는 하지만 저연령층과 고연령층이 다가서기엔 힘든 부분이 있다. 그래서 간단한 조작으로 게임을 즐길 수 있는 게임을 만들어 보고자 했다. 친근감 있는 시나리오와 캐릭터를 통해 남녀노소 누구나 쉽게 접할 수 있고, 오락적인 요소만 있는 것이 아니라 게임을 통한 성취감과 경쟁심을 유도함으로서 게임에 더욱 몰입 할 수 있다.

게임은 데카르트적 좌표(Cartesian coordinates)의 전통을 뒤흔들고 육체와 정신, 이성과 감성, 실재와 가상을 가로지르면서 진화하고 있다. 수많은 철학적 담론을 야기하는 사유의 대상이 되고 있는 게임은 "미학적 기술(Aesthetic Technology)의 철학화(Philosophizing)"로 새롭게 정의될 수 있다. 게임의 메타포적 특성은 철학화하는 게임을 규정하는 중요한 면이다. 메타포(Metaphor)는 '개념의 매핑'(Mapping of the Concept)이며, 분리된 정신과 육체, 내용들을 연결하는 게임 역시 개념의 매핑으로 메타포가 된다. 게임의 메타포적 특성은 몰입(Immersive)과 연결되며 게임 기술의 발달로 개념의 매핑은 '개념의 몰핑'(Morphing of the Concept)으로 나아간다. 게임과 서사 사이의 갈등 또한 철학화 하는 게임의 까다로움을 드러내는 것이다. 게임학(Ludology)과 서사학(Narratology)의 이론적 논쟁에도 불구하고, 게임의 서사와 문학의 서사 사이에는 분명한 존재론적 차이가 있다. 우리는 게임에서 단지 사물이 움직이는 것을 보는 것이 아니라, 우리는 '우리 자체가(우리 스스로가) 움직이기 때문에 움직이는 것들을 보는 것'이기 때문이다. 그러므로 게임의 앵글(보는 방식)은 의미와 행위자가 아니라 '사용과 사용자(Use and User)'로 이동되어야 하며, 이때 서사는 '규칙의 해석(Interpretation)' 과정에서 생기는 잉여물(Surplus)이 된다. 게임은 수적으로 재현되며, 수적 재현을 통해 만들어지는 생산물(Product)은 서사가 아니라 알고리즘(Algorithm)이라는 숨은 규칙을 지닌 데이터베이스(Database)이다.

In recent, mobile augmented reality game which has been attracting high attention is considered to be an good approach to increase immersion. In conventional augmented reality-based games that recognize target objects using a mobile camera and show the matching game characters, touch-based interaction is mainly used. In this paper, we propose an intuitive interaction method which manipulates a deformable game object by moving a target image of augmented reality in order to enhacne the immersion of the game. In the proposed method, the deformable object is intuitively manipulated by calculating the distance and direction between the target images and by adjusting the external force applied to the deformable object using them. In this paper, we focus on the cloth deformable object which is widely used for natural object animation in game contents and implement natural cloth simulation interacting with game objects represented by wind and rigid objects. In the experiments, we compare the previous commercial cloth model with the proposed method and show the proposed method can represent cloth animation more realistically.

본 논문에서는 유·아동의 독서활동을 돕고자 기존에 있는 동화책과 가상현실 기술을 결합한 몰입형 동화 콘텐츠를 제안한다. VR 환경은 3D 입체 환경을 통한 중다감각적 상호작용을 가능하게 하여 학습자로부터 동기를 유발시킨다. 프로그램이 시작되면 컨트롤러가 활성화되며 동화보기, 미니게임 등 동화에 직접적으로 참여하여 즐길 수 있는 콘텐츠로, 향후 유·아동의 교육적인 면에서도 더욱 효과적일 것으로 기대된다.

The development of technology has enabled users to customize avatars using various combinations and appearances in MMORPG. This study investigated the loyalty and user immersion factors of MMORPG avatar customization, which included personal factors (self-esteem, self-efficacy) and environmental factors (challenging spirit, sense of unity). immersion factors were extracted and a research model was established by observing precedent studies conducted on Flow theory and on the development and transformation of avatars. This study established a theory based on a developed research model and by surveying the users of AION, a MMORPG game, who actively enjoyed avatar customization, after determining measurement items based on precedent studies. The research results showed that self-esteem, a challenging spirit and sense of unity must be enhanced to increase the customization immersion. In addition, research results showed that the degree of loyalty increased with higher customization immersion.

The government enacted shutdown system in the fall of 2011. It was to secure a right to sleep for the youth and prevent them from being addicted to game. The opinion on the system was dichotomized: gamers were against it for the reason that shutdown system was not effective while non-gamers like parents thought that it was a measure to prevent game addiction. The trust of the public on the government is influenced by the factors of moral and competence. That is, if the policy chosen by the government is effective, the public come to trust their government more. Focusing on the factors of the government competence, this study examined to know how the effectiveness and efficiency of governmental policies have impact on the public trust on the government. Particularly this study looked carefully into what factors of political effectiveness have impact on the trust by group (group with and against the shutdown system). Through this study some implication could be obtained for the difference in trust between two groups.

This study looks at the social implications of gaming disorder by considering the situation in Korea. Focusing on specificity of game genres, this study analyzed two aspects of the game playing effect-positive(cognitive needs) and negative(game addiction)-and suggested directions for game regulation policies and game addiction studies, since game playing effects are closely related to game regulatory policy. To analyze game effects and attitudes to regulations, this study performed regression analysis based on the online survey. Results show that game playing effects and attitudes toward game regulation differ based on the nature of game genres. While longer gaming increased the effect of addiction, it also increased cognitive needs. Playing roleplaying, Aeon of Strife, and strategy game genres(RAS), which are subject to game regulation, increased game addiction levels but simultaneously contributed to increased cognitive needs. While playing augmented reality genres positively affected cognitive needs, it also showed favorable attitudes to general game regulation.

Using the TAM, this study investigates the impact of Perceived Usefulness(PU), Perceived Ease of Use(PEOU) of the Animal-Crossing users on game satisfaction(DOS), immersion(DOI), and the relationship between user's attitude and intention through the google online survey. The decorative elements of the game generate a healing effect and more than half of the survey participants share game activities with the online community in terms of PU. In the case of PEOU, the survey participants positively evaluate the technological advancement such as graphics and sounds of the game. In addition, both high degree of satisfaction and immersion in the game have significant correlations with the intention for replaying the game and intention for recommending the game to others.
