There are many studies that intrinsic learning motivation and social support play an important role in the study of children and adolescents. However, studies examining the effects of intrinsic learning motivation and social support by measuring the actual academic performance of elementary school students are rare. This study attempted to verify the effect of intrinsic learning motivation on Korean language performance and moderating effect of social support in 5th and 6th graders in elementary school. 122 elementary school students in local county-level areas participated in this study. The Korean language test was conducted about 5 months after intrinsic learning motivation and social support of families and teachers were measured. The results revealed that Korean language performance showed a significant positive correlation with intrinsic learning motivation and social support, and also showed a significant correlation between learning motivation and social support. In the regression analysis with control variables, it was found that intrinsic learning motivation had a significant effect on Korean language performance. The moderating effect of social support was analyzed by dividing it into family support and teacher support. The interaction effect of learning motivation and social support was significant only in teacher support, not in family support. In specific, when teacher support was high, Korean language performance was high regardless of the student's learning motivation level, but when teacher support was low, the student's learning motivation mattered in the performance. Based on the results of this study, implications and limitations were discussed.

This study examined the involuntary retirement of executives in conglomerates based on Williams' need-threat temporal model of ostracism(2009), which explains the psychology of individuals facing social exclusion in the stages of reflexive, reflective and resignation. In-depth interviews were conducted on 15 retirees from conglomerates, and their contents were used for phenomenological method of analysis. As a result, in the reflexive stage of need-threat temporal model of ostracism, they experienced cognitive panic and emotional panic immediately following retirement. Due to an unexpected shocking experience of retirement notice, they experienced cognitive numbness first, and repressed the following negative feelings cognitively to hide them. In the reflective stage, retirees dream of 'a complete restoration to their best performance in the past', but as such expectation fails, they don't adjust to the reality more due to 'unrealistic thought', 'self-deception', and 'shift responsibility'. In resignation stage, a long-term failure to satisfy the desire led them to experience a sense of defeat and helplessness. Such results were reviewed and compared to Williams' need-threat temporal model of ostracism, and the implications of such result on the nation, companies and retirees in terms of the response to retirement.

Humanity has faced destruction(chaos) due to catastrophes (Covid-19, war, earthquake) and awaits a new restoration. For civilizations and individuals, creation or creativity is essential to psychic development. Creativity is the driving force that renews an individual when a new stance and attitude of consciousness or a new adaptation to reality is desperately needed in the depth of the human mind. This article is the result of an exploration of the nature and characteristics of creativity presented by a series of four dreams. First, the definition and form of creativity were explored in the context of religion, mythology, and history of Eastern and Western. While Western mythology refers to creation or creativity originating from God, ancient China viewed creativity as expressed through the interaction of yin and yang, the movement of Tao. In East and West, the form of creation is divided into creation from nothing, creation from matter, and creation through dissolution from the matrix, which psychologically suggests that creativity or creation originates from the unconscious, the seedbed of infinite potential and creative power. Next, with insights from the second dream, the characteristics of creativity were discussed. Creativity occurs through transcendent function and 'going beyond the frame of reference,' that is, 'transgressivity.' Third, the nature of creativity was explored as the creativity of the unconscious aims for regeneration and drives the renewal of Self archetypal images within the collective and individuals. Ultimately, the creativity of the unconscious is the goal of the whole psyche and aims for individuation to become the whole. Realizing the creativity of the unconscious is the fate of humans as the second creator.

인간은 누구나 자기 인생과정 중 우울한 때를 만날 수 있다. 실로 인생 그 자체가 참을 수 없는 우울의 연속인지도 모른다고 느끼는 사람도 있을 수 있다. 특히 대인관계의 실패나 인생목표의 좌절, 심지어 사소한 사건에서의 실망은 곧 잘 인간에게 여러 가지 감정반응을 일으킨다. 이는 정신건강이 건전한 사람에게는 문제가 될 수 없지만 신경증인 사람에게는 자신의 안정감을 보호하기 위해 현실과 환상의 세계에서 심각한 투쟁을 하고 있다. 그러므로 신경증적인 사람이 자신의 보호에 실패하였을때 불안이나 우울의 정도가 건강한 사람보다 그 농도가 짙게 되어진다고 말할 수 있다. 특히 신경증적 우울은 저하된 자기존중이나 자기의 무가치로 특징지어지며 여러 가지 신체증상도 있고 이러한 증상들은 독립성 강퇴나 죄의식 또는 흥미저하로 이끌어 종극에는 자살을 시도하려는 경향도 나타낸다. 바로 이리한 자살로까지 이끄는 우울의 현상이 저자로 하여금 증례를 찾아 연구해 보겠다는 의욕을 만들게 한 것이다. 이 증례에서 나타난 가정과 결론은 다음과 같다. \circled1 우울반응은 Separation파 loss의 한 반응이다. \circled2 연속된 긴장, 새로운 직장 또는 반복된 실직, 부모의 어린시절의 사별. 창녀생활. 새로운 문화의 적응모국어의 기억상실. 환자의 성격 그리고 환경 등이 우울로 이끌게 한 요인들이다. \circled3 자살은 개인의 양가감정을 나타내는 매우 복잡한 심리학적 반응이다. 즉 그것은 죽고싶은 비관적인 표현일수도 있고 동시에 살고싶은 욕망의 표현일수도 있다.

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine the relationships between cognitive coping, hope, depression, and life satisfaction of hemodialysis patients based on the stress-coping model. Methods: For this cross-sectional survey, 142 participants were recruited from 10 local clinics in Seoul and Daegu during 2012-2013. The data collection instruments included the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, the Herth Hope Index, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and the Satisfaction with Life Scale. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis, and stepwise multiple regression. Results: The cognitive coping scores were significantly related to hope, depression, and life satisfaction. The coping strategies explained 80%, 37%, and 38% of the variances in hope, depression, and life satisfaction, respectively. The most powerful coping strategy was positive refocusing, explaining 73% in hope, 25% in depression, and 25% in life satisfaction. Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that cognitive coping plays an essential role for psychological adaptation of hemodialysis patients. Thus, interventions integrating positive refocusing would help instilling hope of hemodialysis patients in Korea.
