This study investigated the psychosocial characteristics of children and adolescents who were addicted to internet. 1107 children and adolescents were administered several self-report inventories assessing internet addiction, internet expectancy, self-control, parent-adolescent communication, parent control of internet, peer relation, and loneliness. Results indicated that internet addicted adolescents had more expectancy for internet, less self-control, more dysfunctional communication with parents, and more withdrawn from peers than non-addicted. To determine relative contributions of these variables, multiple regression was conducted. It was demonstrated that internet expectancy, self-control, dysfunctional parentadolescent communication, and parent control of internet explained adolescent internet addiction.

Among many other factors associated with anger expressions and problem behaviors, the effect of temperament has not been much investigated in adolescents. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between temperament and problem behaviors in adolescents, and whether dysfunctional anger expressions mediated this relation. A total of 360 students in either middle or high school participated but only data from 354 surveys were analyzed. We found that temperament was associated with dysfunctional anger expressions and problem behaviors, and the relationship between temperament and problem behaviors was mediated by dysfunctional anger expressions. Temperament adaptability was shown to be negatively related with dysfunctional anger expressions and problem behaviors, while temperament approach was shown to be positively related with anger-out expression and externalized problem behaviors. This study suggests that appropriate intervention of anger related issues in adolescents considering their temperament should is needed.

The information society is greatly contributing to the improvement of our standard of living by the providing various types of information and facilitating communication. However, the excessive use of the internet and consequent physical and psychological damages are emerging as serious adverse effects or social problems of the information society. It is urgently required to reduce damages caused by adverse effects of information and to establish correct value systems and behavioral modes fit for social members in the information society. This study shows the process of understanding between the inhabitants of a rural community and a school equipped with information infrastructure. As an organ of education, information education by school, whose goal is forming the sense of school-inhabitants unity, is expected to be helpful in preventing negative phenomena resulting from the adverse effects of information by responding activity to them and in developing inhabitants' ability to accept and utilize the favorable effects of the information society. This info-education experience can provide better ideas for the next learners.

본 연구의 목적은 건강한 결혼생활을 예견할 수 있는 사회인구학적 변인 및 심리적 변인들을 규명하여 부부의 행복유지 및 증진에 방향을 제시하고자 함에 있다. 우리나라 대도시에 거주하는 부부 550쌍을 대상으로 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 결혼 유형을 건강한 결혼, 형식적 결혼, 유약한 결혼, 상황적 결혼으로 구분하여 조사한바, 도시부부의 52%가 건강한 결혼 즉 순기능 결혼 범주에 속하고 48%가 정도의 차이는 있지만 역기능 결혼의 범주에 속하였다. 2) 남편들의 결혼관계 건강지수가 아내들보다 의미있게 높게 나타나 결혼관계에 대한 부부간의 차이를 알수 있었다. 3) 건강한 결혼을 예견하는 변인으로 남편에게는 존경과 대화가, 아내에게는 애정, 문제해결능력, 성생활이 더 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 밝혀졌으며, 이는 곧 심리적 변인이 사회인구학적 변인보다 더 큰 영향을 주는 것임을 의미하는 것이라 하겠다.

The present study explored psychosocial characteristics of infants with genital anomalies (GA) and their caregivers against normal controls. Participants were female caregivers and infants between the ages of 6to38months diagnosed with hypospadias(HS;n=103) or cryptorchidism (CR;n=49). Normalcontrols(n=131) were recruited and selected via Internet. Caregivers completed measures on parenting stress, coping style, social support, and infant temperament. Within the GAgroups, HScaregivers reported their greatest parental concerns as infant urination/bodily functioning difficulties whereas CRcaregivers reported worries related to surgical anesthesia issues. Both groups reported concern about their children's potential reproductive problems. Per caregiver report, infants with GA had lower ability to self-soothe. HS infants in particular were perceived as exhibiting greater negative emotion. Compared with controls, HS and CRcaregivers overall employed coping strategies more frequently and had lower interpersonal sensitivity and parental distress. However, HScaregivers emerged as experiencing higher stress when compared to the CRgroup. There were no differences in to tal parenting stress and social support scores between groups. Further, CRcaregivers reported lower levels of family discord than controls. Despite temperament-related differences between infants with GA and normal controls, HS and CRcaregivers reported lower parental distress and greater use of coping skills as compared to controls. Clinical implications are discussed.

To study the effect of perceived service quality on the repurchasing intention of customers, multi regression analysis was executed and, in the personnel service as well as in the physical service, it showed a plus (+) effect on the result. 2. To study the effect of perceived service quality on the perceived risk, multi regression analysis was executed and, in the part of performance risk and socio-psychological risk of the personnel service, it showed a negative(-) effect on the result; however, in the physical service, it doesn't give any statistical meaningful influence on the result. And, on the physical risk, those two service quality showed a negative(-) effect in the meaningful level. 3. To study the effect of perceived Risk on the repurchasing intention of customers, a multi regression analysis was also executed and, in the parts of all risks of performance, socio-psychological and physical, it showed a negative(-) effect on the result in the meaningful level.
