안구의 운동은 시각 환경에서의 진행중인 정보처리와 관련된 지각적, 인지적 과정을 밀접히 반영하는 중요한 지표로서, 특히 공간 지각과의 상관은 비교적 명확히 확립되어 있다. 본 연구는 공간지각에 관여하는 안구운동의 특성을 파악하여, 공간지각을 반영하는 안구운동 지표를 개발한다는 목표 아래, 피험자가 느끼는 공간의 확장과 축소의 특성을 이중도약과제(double-step paraeigm)를 사용하여 관찰한 것이다. 이중도약과제는 도약(saccadic)안구운동의 오차를 유발시키는 실험기법으로, 두개의 시각자극을 하나씩 연속적으로 보여주되, 두번째 자극은 안구운동이 일어나는 도중에 제시하는 것으로서, 인위적으로 왜곡된 공간에 대한 피험자의 공간적응을 관찰하는데 사용되었다. 이 과제는 다시 자극의 이차도약 방향에 따라 축소감 조건과 확장감 조건으로 나뉘었고, 머리운동의 역할을 판별하기 위해 머리를 고정한 조건과 머리를 자유롭게한 조건으로 분류되었다. 그 결과 머리가 고정된 상태에서는 축소감 조건에 대한 적응이 확장감 조건에서보다 더 빨리 일어나고, 그 적응후의 시선이동의 변화량에서도 축소감 조건이 더 크게 나타났다. 또한 머리를 자유롭게 할 공간 지각의 정확성이 증가하며, 축소감과 확장감 경험속도의 차이가 약 49.2%까지 해소되었으나, 여전히 축소감의 경험이 더 잘 일어났다.

The 120 participants of this study were 5- and 9-year-old children and their mothers. Children responded to 24 prosocial moral reasoning dilemmas and 8 prosocial decision-making tasks. Mothers' prosocial moral reasoning was assessed with questionnaires. Level of moral reasoning was higher in distant than in close relationships. 5-year-olds in preoperational stage used the complex situational cues in their reasoning, and prosocial moral reasoning of 9-year-olds was positively related to mothers' prosocial moral reasoning in the situation with conditions of distant relationship, low costs, and internal responsibility. Children made more helping decisions in close than in distant relationship situations, low rather than high cost situations, and external rather than internal responsibility situations. 5-year-olds whose mothers were high in level of prosocial moral reasoning were more helpful.

본 연구의 한계는 설문대상이 주로 대학생들로 나타나 표본선정에 있어 고루 분포되지 못한 직업군 등으로 연구결과의 대표성에 문제가 제기된다. 또한, 이용자들이 피자 배달 전문점에 어떠한 이미지를 가지고 있는지에 관한 부분들이 결여되어 있다. 따라서, 향후 연구 과제에 대한 제안으로 인구통계적 특성이나 라이프스타일에 따른 보다 구체적인 피자 배달 전문점의 서비스 품질 등을 가미한 연구가 필요할 것이며, 이용자들의 피자 배달 전문점의 서비스품질에 대한 정확한 지각을 측정하기 위해서는 지각된 품질을 구성하는 보다 심층적인 연구가 필요한 것으로 사료된다. 향후 과제로 이러한 부족한 점들을 보완한 연구가 요구되어진다고 사료된다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of developing and applying a program in the field of astronomy that can improve the spatial perception ability and task commitment of elementary science gifted students. The subjects of this study were 22 students in the advanced course in the elementary science gifted class affiliated with the Gifted and Talented Center of University B. In order to improve spatial perception ability and task attachment to students in elementary school science gifted class, a total of 12 educational learning programs were developed and applied. The results of this study were interpreted as quantitative analysis. The results of this study are as follows. First, the astronomy class had a positive effect on the spatial perception ability improvement of elementary science gifted students. Second, the astronomy class had a positive effect on improving the task commitment of elementary school science gifted students. Third, astronomy class of elementary school science gifted students was more effective in improving spatial perception than improving task commitment. Since elementary school science gifted students are selected with excellent intelligence, creativity, and task commitment, an Individualized Education Program (IEP) is developed and applied to better express their potential giftedness. In addition, in order to express more in-depth giftedness in gifted education, it is necessary to pay attention to the development of programs that can express individual gifted characteristics.

This study aimed to compare the prosodic characteristics of North Korean defectors and South Koreans in three types of sentences (declarative, interrogative, and negative) in two reading tasks (short and dialogue) through acoustic analysis and auditory-perceptual evaluation. In addition, this study examined the relationship between the auditory-perceptual evaluation scores and self-assessment questionnaires on intonation for North Korean defectors. The participants were 15 North Korean defectors and 15 Korean speakers with standard Seoul accents. For statistical analysis, three-way mixed ANOVA and multivariate analysis were performed within the three types of sentences in the reading tasks through acoustic analysis and the Mann-Whitney U Test for auditory-perceptual evaluation. Pearson's product-moment correlation coefficients were also used to identify the correlations between the results of the self-assessment questionnaire on intonation and the auditory-perceptual evaluation. The North Korean defectors were found to have a significantly lower pitch range and auditory-perceptual evaluation score than South Koreans in reading tasks. Moreover, there was a significant correlation between their auditory-perceptual evaluations and self-assessment questionnaires on intonation. The study findings suggest that North Korean defectors, who face many challenges with intonation, showed a tendency to think that their intonation differed from the standard Korean intonation and showed better auditory evaluation results for interrogative sentences.

The effect of spatial attention gradually decreases as a function of the distance between the locus of attention and a target. According to this hypothesis, we tested the spatial-effect profile of visual attention when it operates on perception and memory. Experiment 1 measured accuracy of discriminating the color of a simultaneously masked target after presenting a pre-cue to either at the target location or away from the target (perception-intensive task). Experiment 2 measured accuracy of recognizing the color of several items at and around the pre-cued location (memory-intensive task). In the perception-intensive condition, the accuracy gradually dropped as the distance between the cue and target location increases. However, in the memory-intensive condition, subjects remembered only the item at the cued location. This suggests spatial attention in a memory-intensive process would operate on object-based representations. Experiment 2 showed the object-based effect observed in Experiment 1 can be also present in perception under a special circumstance. The results indicate that spatial attention can operate on object-based representations in a memory-intensive process whereas it flexibly can operate either on location-based or object-based representations in a perception-intensive process.

The prosody of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) has several abnormal features, including monotonous speech. The purpose of this study was to compare acoustic features between an ASD group and a typically developing (TD) group and within the ASD group. The study also examined audience perceptions of the lengthening effect of increasing the number of syllables. 50 participants were divided into two groups (20 with ASD and 30 TD), and they were asked to imitate a total of 28 sentences. In the auditory-perceptual evaluation, seven participants chose sentence types in 115 sentences. Pitch, intensity, speech rate, and pitch slope were used to analyze the significant differences. In conclusion, the ASD group showed higher pitch and intensity and a lower overall speaking rate than the TD group. Moreover, there were significant differences in s2 slope of interrogative sentences. Finally, based on the auditory-perceptual evaluation, only 4.3% of interrogative sentences produced by participants with ASD were perceived as declarative sentences. The cause of this abnormal prosody has not been clearly identified; however, pragmatic ability and other characteristics of autism are related to ASD prosody. This study identified prosodic ASD patterns and suggested the need to develop treatments to improve prosody.

This study aimed to investigate the correlation between speaker's chronological age (CA) and perceived age (PA) and to specify the effect of pitch and speech rate as acoustic cue on judging age, using perceptual testing and acoustic analysis. Three tasks were conducted to identify the degree of listener's accuracy about age estimation. Three perception tasks were conducted to measure the accuracy of 80 Korean listeners when presented with different types of speech. In all the tasks, participants listened to speech samples and gave their estimate of the speaker's age in figures. It was found that Korean listeners are able to gauge the age of a speaker fairly precisely. CA and mean PA were positively correlated in all three tasks. It is clear that the amount and type of information included in the voice samples affected the accuracy of a listener's judgement. Moreover, the result revealed that listeners make use of acoustic information such as pitch and speech rate to estimate speaker's age.

열 두 명의 피험자가 안정상태 일 때, 백색 소음에 노출되었을 때, 백색 소음 하에서 기억과제에 주의를 기울일 때, 백색 소음 하에서 기억 검사를 받을 때, 기록된 뇌파에 대해 relative power spectrum 분석을 하였다. 뇌파는 전두, 측두, 후두 영역에서 단극 유도법으로 기록되었다. 분석 결과, 백색 소음에만 노출되었을 때나, 백색 소음 하에서 기억과제에 주의를 기울일 때나 비슷한 전기피질(electrocortical) 반응이 나타났다. 즉, delta power의 증가, 알파 blocking, fast beta power의 증가, 스트레스를 일으킨다고 피험자들이 평정한 배색 소음 하에서 기억검사를 받을 때에도 동일한 뇌파 패턴이 나타났지만 그 크기가 유의하게 컸다. 정보를 지각할 때 전형적으로 나타나는 반응을 유발하는 스트레스원에 수동적으로 노출되었을 때("intaki"상황)의 생리 반응과 스트레스 상황에 적극적으로 대처할 때("rejection")의 생리 반응을 구분하는 이론 틀 아래서 데이터를 해석하였다. 스트레스 후 기간에 대부분의 뇌파 변수들이 기저선 수준으로 회복된 것으로 보아 사용한 스트레스 유발 모델은 단기적 스트레스 반응만을 유발한 것으로 보인다. 이는, 더 장기적으로 지속되는 스트레스원을 사용하게 되면, tonic상태의 전기피질 반응이 나타날 것을 시사한다.기피질 반응이 나타날 것을 시사한다.

It is well known that visual objects belonging to the same perceptual category compete for category-specific, limited-capacity attentional resource. However, it remains to be seen how perceptually identical objects interact with each other during visual analyses. Perceptually identical objects might suppress each other as much as categorically identical objects do. Alternatively, they might cooperate to generate a perceptual representation which is long lasting and robust to noise. Such possibilities were tested in the current research with three behavioral experiments using the Stroop task. As results, relative to a single distractor, Stroop interference was diluted by two different distractors of a category while it was enhanced by two perceptually identical distractors (Experiment 1). This redundancy effect disappeared when two different distractors associated with the same response were presented (Experiment 2), and it was not affected by the between- vs. within-hemisphere distractor presentations (Experiment 3). These findings indicate that the redundancy effect of distractors may be mediated by perceptual representations based on hemisphere-independent attentional resources. Overall, the current study supports the hypothesis that Stroop interference is constrained by category-specific attentional resources and further suggests that redundant presentations of a stimulus overcome such attentional constraints by facilitating perceptual processing.
