이 연구는 동아시아 한중일 3개국을 대상으로, 낮은 출산율을 공통의 특징으로 하면서도 서구 선진사회들에 비해 저출산 문제를 해결하기 위한 일-가정 양립 지원 정책이 미비한 이유를 3개국에서 각기 다른 형태를 보이는 젠더레짐(gender regime) 개념을 통해 탐구하려고 하였다. 연구를 위한 분석대상 자료는 2012년 국제 사회조사(ISSP)의 '가족과 변화하는 젠더 역할 모듈(Family and Changing Gender Roles)'이다. 연구결과, 전통적 성역할 고정관념과 노동시간은 3개국 모두에서 일-가정 양립 갈등과 정적인 관계를 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 그런데 전통적 성역할 고정 관념과 노동시간, 연령대를 제외한 모든 영향요인은 한국에서만 차이를 보인 것도 특징이다. 한편 임금과 교육수준이 일-가정 갈등에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는다는 사실은 일-가정 갈등이 전체 사회 구성원들에게 보편적인 문제라는 점을 보여주었다. 연구의 결론에 따라 세 가지 정책 제안을 하였다. 일-가정 양립의 문제가 전통적 성역할 고정관념과 중요하게 연관된다는 점을 확인한 점은 이 연구의 중요한 의의이다. 연구의 역사가 긴 서구사회에 비해 관심의 주변부에 있던 동아시아 국가들 역시 젠더 레짐의 정책적 성격에 따라 분류될 수 있음을 밝힌 것도 의미가 있다.

First, the boys exhibited higher scorers on gender-role stereotype than the girls. Second, both boys and girls acquired higher masculine gender-role stereotype than feminine. Third, self-esteem, age, and mother's education influenced significantly boys' masculine and feminine gender-role stereotype. And self-esteem, age, mother's education, father's education and family structure influenced significantly girls' masculine and feminine gender-role stereotype, but mother's work status and income level did not.

In this article, we conducted a literature review about cognitive aging and social-psychological factors that influence cognitive function in old age. As getting older, cognitive function was mostly seen as declining, even though the effect of aging is differential across domains of cognitive ability. The negative view about cognitive aging might be reflecting social-psychological factors such as age stereotypes. Age stereotypes vary among different cultures, but appear to be negative in general. Negative age stereotypes are related to lower level of memory performances. Older adults who were experimentally presented with positive age stereotypes exhibited better memory performances than those with negative age stereotypes. Self-referent belief, appraisals of one's own cognitive abilities, could also affect actual performance in cognitive tasks. Older adults showed lower self-referent belief than younger adults, and it might explain memory decline in old age. Theoretical explanation and implication about the relationship between social-psychological factors and cognitive abilities were discussed.

본 연구의 목적은 19세기 이후 이성 중심의 인간주의적 운동의 전개로 갖게 되었던 신체에 대한 고정 관념이 20세기 중반 이후 사이버 사회가 도래하면서 어떠한 변화를 겪었으며, 이러한 변화가 남성 패션에 어떠한 형식으로 표출되었는가를 고찰하는 것이다. 이를 위해 다음과 같은 연구 문제를 설정하였다. 첫째, ‘사이버’라는 용어의 개념은 무엇인가? 둘째, 사이버 사회 도래 이후 남성의 신체에 대한 관념이 어떠한 변화를 겪게 되었는가? 셋째, 이러한 변화의 사회 심리적 배경은 무엇인가? (중략)

As e-commerce has led to profound changes in the way economic transactions are made and has spurred the rapid integration of global markets, governance of e-commerce has emerged as an important policy agenda around the globe. Given the broader social and economic implications of e-commerce, it is of no surprise that the rule-making process for global e-commerce has increasingly captured the attention of scholars. Despite the substantial contributions to understanding this process, a review of the literature reveals some weaknesses in the study of emerging forms of governance in global e-commerce. This paper addresses these weaknesses and proposes an alternative theoretical framework that underscores the role of ideas and discourse in the global rule-making process.

This study was conducted to explore how men's and women's self-construals do change according to gender-stereotype activation. The results showed that men have stronger gender-stereotypes and construe self more gender-stereotypic way than women. In general, women showed having less gender-stereotype but they construed self more stereotypic way. And the stereotype activation affected only on women to construe self less stereotypic way. Both men and women do accept physical appearance stereotypes more than other domains of gender-stereotype when they construe their selves. Gender-role stereotypes are more accepted by men than women, and gender-stereotypes of ability are more accepted by men but refused by women when stereotype was activated. And men accepted prescriptive gender-stereotype more than women. People of high gender-stereotype group construe self more stereotypic way than those of low stereotype group. But in low gender-stereotype group, women construe self less stereotypic way when stereotype is activated than when not. These results are taken to show, among others, that self-stereotyping of targets were different depending on whether the targets are man or woman, and that self stereotyping of an individual contributes to build a mechanism of maintaining gender-stereotype of a society to which he or she belongs.

As more and more males are participating in the female dominated nursing profession in Korea, they are facing a number of discriminations such as department assignment on the job because of male gender stereotype. The purpose of this study is to examine hospital workers's gender role identity, gender stereotype, and the relationship between those attitudes and gender prejudice against male nurses. The results showed that the androgynous group had lower gender stereotypes and lower prejudice against male nurses than those of the other groups. Hospital workers had a strong tendency to believe that male nurses should work mainly in special departments such as emergency rooms, intensive care units, operating rooms and they think that the male nurses are not fit for caring patients because of the patients' unfamiliarity with male nurses. Gender stereotypes were positively correlated to prejudice against male nurses. Therefore, hospitals should consider developing a detailed plan to encourage a culture of gender equality by tackling the existing prejudice against male nurses so that male nurses can get the same opportunities as female counterparts in terms of department assignment and job promotion.

우리 사회에서 표출되고 있는 젠더의 문제는 일상성의 문화로 고착되어지고 있다. 또한 미디어에서도 젠더의 표출은 명백하게 드러나고 있다. 미디어 문화에서 표현하고 있는 젠더의 문제 또한 고정관념으로 한국의 가부장제 중심의 남성 지배구조를 표출하고 있다. 물론 드라마에서 쉽게 볼 수 있는 젠더의 고정 관념이 변화하고 있으나 우리 사회는 여전히 남성 중심의 가부장제의 의식세계가 깊숙이 자리매김하고 있는 상황이다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 젠더와 미디어와의 연관성을 중심으로 사회문화적 현상을 고찰하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of North Korea defectors' living experiences in South Korea on their self-perceptions and perceptions of South Korea. For this purpose, a questionnaire was distributed to 66 defectors with no living experiences at all and 99 defectors with living experiences of an average of 2.7 years in South Korea. They were asked to rate their own as well as South Koreans' values, personality, attitudes toward sexual misbehavior, gender stereotypes. Also, they evaluated the society of South Korea and its political control. The results indicated that those defectors with living experiences tended to perceive more negatively their own and South Koreans as well, and yet that they were less negative for sexual misbehavior and weaker for gender stereotypes. Also, results suggested that living experiences led defectors to perceive South Korea in a more negative way. Those findings were discussed in terms of changes in culture.
