The purpose of this research is to examine the effect EVE about culture & art education and social tendencies have on adult educatees eliminating controlled mechanisms. Quantitative research on those in their 40s and 50s was executed. The results show that there is a high correlation between GEVE and individualism, REVE and collectivism. GEVE has a higher influence on actualization of self-efficiency, FEVE on reignition of retained desires, REVE on substantialization of non-isolation, individualism on actualization of self-efficiency, and collectivism on substantialization of non-isolation. This research evokes the importance of an interdisciplinary and integrated understanding of EVE in culture & art education, educatees' social tendencies, and their psychological mechanisms. Also, it suggests the necessity of following research and practical adaptation related to developing programs, securing quantitative and qualitative appropriateness reflecting social requirements, and operation, evaluation, and management considering reciprocality.

Using Kohut's selfobject perspective as a foundation, this qualitative study explored the empathy with music and analyzed the empirical meanings in relation to 'Mirroring selfobject need', 'Idealized selfobject need', and 'Twinship selfobject need'. The participants included 13 music therapy graduate students who took part in individual interviews about their musical experiences. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed via content analysis. As a result, seven categories with 16 meaningful concepts emerged under three dimensions: Gratification of selfobject need for mirroring, gratification of selfobject need for idealization, and gratification of selfobject need for twinship. Participants described experiencing unconditional understanding and acceptance from music, feeling stronger and safer in music, and being identified with and connected to music. These findings suggest that participants continuously gratify their selfobject needs by expanding the self and empathizing themselves through music. This study in significant in that it is the first qualitative study to analyze participants' musical experiences from Kohut's selfobject perspective.

The purpose of this study was to verify relative effects of emotion and empathy on altruistic behavior. A survey including psychological well-being, depression, empathic concern, and perspective taking was conducted on 329 undergraduates. Results revealed that altruism was positively correlated with psychological well-being, empathy concern, and perspective taking but negatively correlated with depression. Test for relative effects of positive and negative emotional states on altruism revealed that psychological well-being, but not depression, significantly predicted altruism. Test for relative effects of emotional and cognitive empathy factors on altruism showed that empathic concern, but not perspective taking, significantly predicted altruism. Test for relative effects of all four factors on altruism revealed that the empathic concern was the strongest factor affecting altruism, followed by psychological well-being, while the remaining two factors did not have an effect on altruism. Implications and limitations of this study are also discussed in this study.

This study examined the effects of childcare teachers' empathy, teaching commitment, and feelings of happiness. The subjects were 111 childcare teachers in U city. The frequency, reliability, and correlation analysis were performed using the SPSS 22.0 program, and regression analysis was performed on the causal relationship between the variables. First, the childcare teacher's cognitive empathy factor had a positive effect on the sense of happiness. On the other hand, the emotional empathy factor, a sub-factor of the empathy ability, did not affect the feeling of happiness. Second, the childcare teacher's teaching commitment had a significant positive effect on happiness. This means that a higher cognitive empathy factor, a sub-factor of the childcare teacher's empathy ability, resulted in a higher sense of happiness. Moreover, a higher instructional commitment factor indicated a higher sense of happiness. This study provides basic data for preparing measures to improve the sense of happiness of childcare teachers by grasping the relationship between childcare teachers' empathy ability, teaching commitment, and feelings of happiness.

This study seeks to verify how empathic concern and perspective-taking predict happiness by investigating the mediating effects of cognitive reappraisal. Online surveys about empathic concern, perspective-taking, cognitive reappraisal, and happiness were conducted by 336 adult subjects. First, the correlation analysis indicated that empathic concern and perspective-taking significantly predicted cognitive reappraisal and happiness, respectively. Second, cognitive reappraisal also significantly predicted happiness. Third, the cognitive reappraisal mediated the association between empathic concern and happiness and between perspective-taking and happiness. Specifically, people who emotionally and cognitively empathize with others reported higher levels of cognitive reappraisal, which allowed them to experience higher levels of happiness. These findings have confirmed that people can increase their happiness by enhancing cognitive reappraisal through emotional and cognitive empathy. Finally, the implications and limitations of the present research are discussed.

본 연구는 '의도(Intention)는 행동을 예측할 수 있다'는 사회 심리학자들의 연구에 근간을 두고 사회적 기업가적 의도(Social Entrepreneurial Intention)에 영향을 미치는 요소들이 무엇인지를 규명하고자 하였다. 그동안 기업가적 의도(Entrepreneurial Intention)에 대한 많은 연구들에서 Ajzen의 계획된 행동이론(Theory of Planned Behavior: TPB)과 Shapero의 기업가정신행동모델(Shapero's Model of the Entrepreneurial Event: SEE)에 근간하여 이루어졌다. 이러한 연구에 기반하여 본 연구는 사회적 기업가정신 맥락에서 사회적 공감(Compassion), 도덕적 의무감(Moral Obligation), 사회적 지지에 대한 인식(Perceived Social Support)이 사회적 기업가적 의도에 영향을 미치는 요소임을 밝히고자 하였다. 본 연구는 자발적으로 사회적 기업가정신 및 기업가정신 과목 수강을 선택한 대학생 271명을 대상으로 하였으며 회귀분석을 통해 가설검증을 하였다. 공감능력(인지적 공감, 정서적 공감, 사회문제 공감)과 주관적 규범으로의 도덕적 의무감은 사회적 기업가적 의도에 영향을 미치며, 외부 환경에 대한 인식 즉 사회적 지지에 대한 인식의 정도에 따라 사회적 기업가적 의도는 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 기존의 사회적 기업가정신에 영향을 미치는 요소들을 규명하는 연구들이 주로 기존 기업가정신 연구에서 사용된 변수를 사용함으로써 사회적 기업가정신의 특성을 잘 설명하지 못한다는 한계를 가지고 있었다. 본 연구는 공감, 도덕적 의무감, 사회적 지지에 대한 인식이 의도(Intention)에 영향요소임을 밝힘으로써 사회적 기업가적 의도 연구 분야에 기여했다고 볼 수 있다. 그러나 사회적 기업가적 의도를 파악하는데 있어서 학생들만을 대상으로 한 것은 본 연구의 한계점이라고 할 수 있다.
