This paper is focused on the investigation of the negative factors from smart-phone as internal affecting the use of smartphone and found their relationship. For the validation of this study model, 300 university students randomly selected in Seoul and Gyeongnam province. The measurement model was evaluated by using SPSS 18.0, and the evaluated result was summarized as follows. First, it was found that the techno-stress of smartphone user significantly associated with the fun and pleasure felt from using smatphone. It was assumed that a higher techno-stress negatively affects fun and pleasure from using smartphone. Second, the techno-stress of smartphone users was found to affect smartphone addiction. This means that more techno-stress users feel as they use smartphone, the more tendency to smartphone addiction. Third, flow was significantly associated with the smartphone addiction. Forth, Flow was significantly associated with satisfaction of the smartphones use.

스마트폰의 등장은 컴퓨터를 손바닥 안으로 옮기는 혁명을 가져왔으며, 그 혁명은 생활의 편리함과 즐거움을 제공하는 스마트 사회를 선도하고 있지만, 스마트폰 증후군을 포함한 부작용 요소가 과거의 그 어떤 IT 기기들보다 더욱 폭넓고 다양한 형태로 나타나고 있다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰 이용 목적별로 위험 요인을 중심으로 부작용 유형과 유형별 핵심 이슈를 도출하고 이를 토대로 사회적 영향을 진단하였다. 그리고 진단 결과를 토대로 바람직한 스마트폰 활용에 대한 사회적 이해와 공감대가 형성될 수 있도록 부작용을 최소화하기 위한 대응 방안을 제시하였다. 제시한 대응 방안은 스마트 사회의 창의 협력 소통 오락통의 플랫폼인 스마트폰을 바람직하게 활용하게 함으로써 가시적이고 잠재적인 부작용에 대해 체계적으로 대응할 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구의 목적은 운동박탈이 운동중독자의 심리적 변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 EEG 대뇌반구의 비대칭 활성화 지표를 통해 검증하고, 그 연구결과를 바탕으로 운동중독자들이 운동박탈을 경험할 때 나타나는 정서적 변화에 대한 기전을 규명하는데 있다. 본 실험에 참여한 피험자들은 20명이며, 운동박탈 후 나타나는 정서변화를 알아보기 위해 집단(실험집단, 통제집단)에 따른 시점별(운동박탈 전, 운동박탈 3일 후, 운동박탈 5일 후) 긍정과 부정적 정서 그리고 집단에 따른 EEG 대뇌반구 비대칭 차이지표를 비교분석하기 위하여 반복측정이원분산분석을 실시했으며, 사후검증을 실시했다. 본 연구결과 운동중독자에 운동박탈이 발생할 경우 감정이 부정적으로 바뀐다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 본 연구는 기존의 운동박탈 연구에서 활용한 질적 연구 방식과 자기보고서 방식에서 벗어나 뇌 생리심리적 접근인 뇌파를 활용하여 좀 더 객관적이고 과학적으로 운동박탈에 대한 정서적 기전을 제시했다고 사료된다.
