The study aims to examine the determinants that affect satisfaction, revisit intention, and recommendation intention with foreign tourists who visited Korea despite the threat of COVID-19. This study employs the survey data collected by the Korea Tourism Organization from 8,135 foreign tourists who visited Korea in 2020. As the survey data contains a mixture of continuous and categorical variables, decision tree analysis can ensure analytical validity for the research. According to the analytical results, the determinants affecting satisfaction are the purpose of the visit and acceptance of self-quarantine during their stay. The factors influencing revisit intention are the purpose of the visit, frequency of the visit, and acceptance of self-quarantine during their stay. The determinants affecting recommendation intention are the purpose of the visit, length of stay, and gender. Based on the results of this analysis, this study not only explains the relationship between these determinants and tourism satisfaction, revisit intention, and recommendation intention, but also suggests implications for revitalizing tourism activities.

Academic interest in the educational value of picturebooks for children and the narrative importance of peritexts have been increased. This study was conducted with the purpose of presenting the components for analyzing the picturebook peritext. To this end, the components of the peritext used in 11 previous studies that analyzed the peritext of picturebooks were comprehensively reviewed. Looking at the results of the study, the components used in previous studies were largely categorized into four categories, and according to the characteristics of the components within each category, they were classified into 'basic information', 'physical elements', 'positional elements', and 'content elements.' The first category, 'basic information,' includes the title, authors' name, publication information, award information, and dedication/acknowledgment, laudatory comment. The second category, 'physical elements,' includes the format, book binding, and quality of material. The third category, 'positional elements,' includes cover(front cover, back cover, spine), endpaper, title page, copyright page, dust jacket and belly band. The fourth category, 'content elements,' includes text, illustration, typography, layout and page shape. Through the results of this study, it is expected that research on the analysis and utilization of various picturebooks will be activated.

This study was conducted on the premise of the development of cultural products using relic assets of traditional culture in a knowledge and information society led by culture and soft power. It was conducted in the context of exploring the possibility of cultural content products of Wa-Dang relics excavated from traditional architecture in the Unified Silla Period and expanding the scalability of commercialization motifs that are highly useful in jewelry design. First, the original form, material, use, size, meaning, and formative aesthetics of Wa-Dang were identified through literature and media research. Among the considered Wa-Dang, 10 types of Wa-Dang which represent the category and have values in modules and patterns were selected, and, then, circular images were extracted and modularized with a "formal simplification technique." Based on the "mathematical symmetry analysis technique," which is a method of systematizing pattern composition arrangement format. we derived a planar formative element that can be used in the development of the cultural content industry and jewelry design. In order to expand its usability in the jewelry industry in the future, it was presented as a 2D digital image. In the future, we hope more studies on the various cultural content industry utilizing the traditional culture will be carried out.

This study examines the training effectiveness of airsoft guns that look and operate like real guns. Airsoft guns were developed in Japan in the late 1970s and are now popular for leisure sports and training, especially in countries where gun ownership is permitted. In particular, Taiwan has been promoting airsoft gun games to train citizen soldiers, and military leaders such as the United States have also utilized airsoft guns for live fire combat training and combat troops' live fire training. However, due to strict usage regulations and the perception that it is a toy, it is underutilized in Korea despite being a good training tool. Therefore, this study will prove the effectiveness of airsoft guns and improve the military's combat capabilities through practical training using airsoft guns. In addition, it will improve the negative perception of airsoft guns and foster a new sports industry.

Windows are essential and important architectural elements for the organization of architectural spaces, and they give character to the space and have a great impact on the reaction of users. Virtual windows are installed to activate architectural spaces such as underground spaces where windows cannot be installed, and to provide a sense of psychological security to users in hospital clinics, etc. In this study, we reviewed the literature and collected and analyzed the precedents of virtual windows to discuss the factors necessary to improve the realism of virtual windows. The factors that affect the realism of virtual windows are further grouped into five categories: 1. Use of reproduced images or videos for views, 2. Representation of temporality, 3. Responsiveness to changes in the observer's perspective, 4. Realistic reproduction of sunlight, and 5. Provision of non-visual sensory elements. Virtual windows are not just a replacement for traditional windows, but a way to realize a virtual environment using digital media, and it is necessary to expand the discussion to the realization of the virtual environment and the relationship with architectural elements.

This study was conducted to identify research trends on the integrated community care system in Korea and suggest future research directions. The scoping review method was conducted according to the JBI methodological guidelines. A literature search was conducted in 5 databases (RISS, DBpia, NDSL, KISS, NAL), and 34 papers were selected for the final analysis. The analysis was categorized into user and provider aspects related to community care, and the results from the user aspect showed that variables related to service satisfaction and physical health status were used the most and showed positive results. Provider aspect results mainly studied problems and improvements due to service provision, and many studies showed the need to revitalize inter-agency collaboration systems and the lack of manpower to perform services. Based on the results of this study, in the future expansion of the integrated community care system, it will be necessary to not only establish criteria for selecting subjects, but also secure the expertise of service providers, establish a collaboration system between regions and institutions, and prepare measures to resolve service differences.

Through the use and development of underground spaces, subways have become a representative means of transportation in the city center. Due to the extension of subway lines and the increase in the number of subway users, there is a risk that safety for evacuating human lives in case of fire will not be secured. Therefore, this study tried to identify citizens' perceptions of evacuation facilities through questionnaires and find alternatives. An online survey of 115 subway passengers was conducted to learn about citizens' awareness of subway evacuation facilities. As a result of the survey, awareness of evacuation facilities was high in the order of guidance lights, life-saving devices, emergency lights and portable lights, special evacuation stairs, and evacuation stairs. In addition, the majority of the respondents said they were not well aware of evacuation facilities, and people's indifference was the most common cause. As a solution to the lack of awareness, responses to active advertising and promotion, education and experience activities were the highest.

BIM was activated by applying it necessarily to the government ordered construction of more than a certain amount of money in architecture and construction field of Korea before and after 2010. An architectural education using BIM at college in Korea has been doing in accordance with this trend but is not too different from the existing interior design studio. Also, a new design curriculum based on BIM that provides a digital design concept and a digital working environment is increasingly being demanded in modern society. A digital-based design process is required not only in the field of architecture but also in the field of interior. Therefore, this study suggests the prototype of the interior design studio based on the field practice can apply BIM design, not the unfamiliar interior design studio pursued in the field practice to understand easily the environment of interior design process BIM is essentially seeking.

Drawing upon research in affect and social identity theory, this study examines when and how an individual's trait positive affect (TPA) exerts a significant effect on the person's organizational citizenship behavior directed toward individuals (OCBI). A moderated mediation model was tested by using the data of 293 employees nested in 66 work groups. Results demonstrate that the indirect effect of TPA on OCBI mediated by group identification (GI) is significantly positive only when perceived group positive affect (PGPA) is low, highlighting the substituting role of PGPA in the relationship between TPA and GI. The significant conditional indirect effects at the low level of PGPA suggest that TPA functions as significant, affective resources for enhancing GI and consequently increasing OCBI of the focal member when PGPA is low. By contrast, TPA's role in enhancing GI becomes redundant when PGPA is high. The current analysis reveals potential complementary functions of TPA and PGPA in explaining subsequent identity cognition and individual behavior.
