Since the revision of the ICD-11 of the WHO, the level of social discourse on internet game use disorders has been increasing. However, existing studies have mixed terms and causal relationships with game use disorder or game addiction. This study was conducted with high school students aged 16 to 18, focusing on internet game addiction. As a result of the analysis, the greater the obstacles to daily life and self-regulation, the higher the risk of falling into internet game addiction. This study has a significance in reestablishing the causal relationship of Internet game addiction.

VR 기술 및 활용에 대한 다양한 연구와 장밋빛 전망에도 불구하고, 현재 우리 법 제도는 VR 산업 활성화의 걸림돌이 되는 규제들을 완전히 제거하지 못한 상태이다. 특히, 의료 및 게임 분야에서 VR 콘텐츠의 특수성을 고려한 맞춤형 규제설계가 필요하다. 먼저, 현행 규제상 의료용 VR 콘텐츠 및 소프트웨어는 의료기기 수입 제조허가와 신의료기술평가를 모두 거쳐야 하는데, 특히 신의료기술평가의 경우에는 의료용 VR 콘텐츠 및 소프트웨어에 대한 대비가 충분하지 않아 이의 활용에 상당한 장애가 될 수 있다. 그러므로 정부가 가이드라인 등 적절한 해석기준을 통해 의료기기의 범위를 불필요하게 확대하지 않도록 하고, 아울러 신의료기술평가에 있어 '선 진입, 후 평가' 제도를 활용할 수 있도록 개선이 요구된다. 다음으로, 게임의 경우에는 현행 게임산업법상 게임물의 정의가 너무 광범위하여 양방향성이 있는 VR 콘텐츠들이 게임물로 분류되어 불필요한 규제를 받을 가능성이 있으며, 여기에 더하여 최근 세계보건기구에서 '게임 이용 장애'를 국제질병분류에 포함시킴으로써 추가 규제에 대한 우려까지 더해지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 법제처가 최근 발표한 "적극행정 법제 가이드라인"의 취지에 맞게 정부가 게임물 규제의 범위를 적극적으로 축소 해석하거나, 이러한 규제의 예외를 정하는 고시 또는 가이드라인을 제정할 필요가 있다. 또한, 현재 시행 중인 'ICT 규제 샌드박스' 제도를 잘 활용하고, 이와 별도로 국제질병분류의 국내 수용에 대해서도 보다 신중하게 접근할 필요가 있을 것이다.

The study conducted a meta analysis to identify the effects of physical activity programs for the elderly with disabilities. The 14 out of 177 studies, fulfilled the process and requirement, were selected for the Hedges'g, funnel plot, forest plot, Egger's regression test, trim-and-fill, fail-safe N. There were three conclusions based on the results. First, the physical activity was effective for the elderly with disabilities and showed good effects on the psychomotor, cognitive, and affective domains. Second, the physical activity programs of fundamental exercise skill, game and sport, and fitness exercise showed positive effects on the psychomotor, cognitive, and affective domains in the elderly with disabilities. Third, the fundamental exercise skill for the psychomotor domain, the game and sport for the cognitive domain, and the fitness exercise for the affective domain were the most effective for the elderly with disabilities.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of game play activities on EEG, social skills and self-control in the children with intellectual disabilities. Subjects with intellectual disabilties were divided by control group(n=3) and the experimental group(n=3). In a period of 6 weeks, they took game play activities for 50 minutes 2 times a week. As a result, in EEG(${\alpha}$-wave, ${\beta}$-wave), social skills and self-control before and after intervention, there were significant difference in experimental group(p<.05). And in ${\alpha}$-wave, social skills and self-control, there were significant difference in between group(p<.05). But, in ${\beta}$-wave there was no significant difference in between group(p>.05). These findings indicate that game play activities on the children with intellectual disabilities could improve EEG, social skills and self-control. Accordingly, game play activities are judged to be used for the children with intellectual disabilities to prevent problem and to intervention.

In this paper, we analyze the interaction features using eye-tracker and the characteristics of attention concentration of children with intellectual disabilities, and present gamification elements that can be used when designing digital contents for them. For children with quadriplegic cerebral palsy, eye-trackers will increase the accessibility of digital contents. Foreground gamification can be used for selective attention concentration, background gamification and intrinsic motivation to sustain attention concentration, and foreground gamification and extrinsic motivation for mobility.

Neuro-feedback is a technology that can identify your brain state and you can intentionally change your brain state. People with attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder need this technology but existing neuro-feedback training has a problem, which is not interesting and maintains a static state for a long time. In this paper, we proposed and implemented a neuro-feedback game that combines neuro-feedback and gun-shooting games to enhance concentration training. The neuro-feedback game has been implemented with the design of EEG measurement system, game controller and gamesoft. We hope that this study will be useful for people suffering from attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder.

Functional Games, which have developed in Korea until now, is only for the healthy people's education. There are less functional games for neglected people, specially for the disturbed's healing. I define 'Green Contents' as contents which is helpful to both of nature and human, especially to the week, and also they are not developed only for the commercial aim. Functional Games for the disturbed's healing should be developed as' Green Contents.' If functional games for the disturbed's healing will be developed as aspects of technology and contents development, they will have more effects to people, and also people will need them more. For this study, I analyze art therapy, which is a normal treatment to give a social nature and self respect to the disturbed. Also I developed a functional game program for the disturbed's healing as based on psychoanalyst's theories and suggest it's Road-map. This study will be useful for the developer who want to develop this kinds of games afterwards, and various functional games for the disturbed's healing as Green Contents should be more developed in the near future.

This study was conducted to classify college students using games based on the stress, satisfaction and balance of basic psychological needs and to identify how gaming behaviors differ according to the divided clusters. This study used data of 447 college students who used games with the support of JangHoon Scholarship Foundation. As a result, the college students using games were divided into four groups with different characteristics according to stress, satisfaction and balance of basic psychological needs. Also, the level of gaming behavior was different according to the degree of satisfaction of basic psychological needs. The lower the stress and the higher the balance when the level of satisfaction was similar, the lower the level of gaming behaviors was. This study confirmed the importance of satisfactory balance of basic psychological needs as well as satisfaction, and supported the biopsychological perspective by suggesting that there are significant differences in gaming behavior according to clusters.

In this paper, the causal relationships in Onward are compared and contrasted with the ones in Up. The characters in Up purposefully move to action for the given cause. The residents there accept the surreal beings as normal. Thus, the viewers understand such surreal beings in the scene as part of the fantasy world of Up. The protagonists in Onward also have purpose for the actions they take. For achieving their goal, they choose problem solving method from the magical world. However, there is no causal relationship between reality and their world. Thus, it fails to persuade its viewers.

본 논문에서 대 규모 네트워크 게임서버는 기능별로 분산화 되어야 하며, 분산되어 있는 여러 서버 중 특정기능을 수행하는 서버가 장애를 발생하여 전체 시스템에 영향을 주어서는 안 된다. 본 논문이 제시한 구조는 로그인 처리만 수행하는 서버로서 네트워크 게임은 물론 로그인 처리를 요구하는 다른 시스템들에도 적용 가능하다.
