In Korea, telephone surveys have been used in election forecasting since 1992. In some elections, predictions were excellent, but in some elections, the predictions based on telephone surveys were not good. So, exit polls have been used along with the telephone surveys in predicting election outcomes since 2001 by the major broadcasting networks. Though telephone surveys, in general, have been less accurate than exit polls in election forecasting from 2000 to 2003, they were more accurate in the 2004 General Election than the exit polls. All predictions on the winners by the telephone surveys turned out to be accurate. But such success has not persisted. In the 2008 General Election, the telephone surveys was less accurate than the exit polls and actually its accuracy fell clown to the level of the 2000 General Election. This paper tried to find out. the factors responsible for the fluctuation of the accuracy of telephone polls.

세계의 인구증가와 경제성장에 따라 필연적으로 에너지 소비량도 증가하게 될것이다. 1989년 10월 유엔(UN) 총회에서 국제원자력기구 사무총장인 Hans Blix박사가 연설한 [세계 경제 발전과 전반적인 에너지 소요증가에 따른 원자력의 역할에 대한 재평가]에 의하면 앞으로의 20년간 2차에너지의 소비량은 지금보다 50%-70% 증가할 것으로 예상되며 이로 인한 이산화탄소의 발생량을 감소시키기 위해서는 화석연료의 사용억제가 필요한데 완전한 해결책은 없으나 그래도 원자력발전이 산성비나 기상변화에 영향을 주지 않으면서 세계 에너지 수급 균형에 크게 기여할 수 있다는 점을 강조하고 있다. 또한 최근에는 원자력발전에 대한 세계각국의 여론동향도 원전의 긍정적 역할을 재인식하면서 필요성에 대한 찬성여론이 증가하고 있는 추세이며 특히 안전성에 역점을 두고 개발되고 있는 신형안전로에 대해서는 더욱 좋은 반응을 보이고 있는 것으로 조사되고 있다. 자원빈국이며 비산유국인 우리나라의 경우 앞으로의 에너지 위기에 대처하기 위해서는 고갈성 화석연료의 대체가 가능한 태양에너지, 해양에너지 및 연료전지와 같은 신.재생에너지의 개발이 시급하나 아직 실용화가 요원한 상태이고 보면 앞에서 서술한 여러가지 원자력발전의 필요성을 고려할때 기술집약형 대체에너지인 원자력발전사업의 지속적인 추진만이 에너지 문제의 현실적 해결책이라고 믿어진다.

The advancement of information technologies including the Internet has affected the way of social information processing as well as brought about the paradigm shift to the information society. Accordingly, it is very important to study the process of social information processing over the digital media through which social information is generated, distributed, and led to social consensus. In this study, we analyze the mechanism of social information processing, identify a process model of social consensus and institutionalization of the results, and finally propose a set of information processing characteristics on the internet media. We deploy the ethnographic approach to analyze the meaning of group behavior in the context of society to analyze two major events which happened in Korean society. The formation process of social consensus is found to consist of 5 steps: suggestion of social issues, selective reflection on public opinion, acceptance of the issues and diffusion, social consensus, and institutionalization and feedback. The key characteristics of information processing in the Internet is grouped into proactive response to an event, the changes in the role of opinion leader, the flexibility of proposal and analysis, greater scalability, relevance to consensus making, institutionalization and interaction. This study contributes to the literature by proposing a process model of social information processing which can be used as the basis for analyzing the social consensus making process from the social network perspective. In addition, this study suggests a new perspective where the utility of the Internet media can be understood from the social information processing so that other disciplines including politics, communications, and management can improve the decision making performance in utilizing the Internet media.

인터넷의 대중화로 커뮤니티에 콘텐츠가 대량으로 생성되고 있고, 이들은 또 다른 측면의 여론으로 그 비중이 커져가고 있다. 이러한 변화에 기존에 구축된 웹 데이터베이스를 기준으로 생성된 인터넷 커뮤니티 콘텐츠를 처리하고자 할 경우, 새로이 생성된 언어와 패턴으로 인하여 분류 및 관리에 어려움이 많다. 본 연구는 이를 해결하기 위해서 실시간으로 웹로봇을 활용하여 새로운 사례와 데이터를 수집하고, 이를 사례별로 분류한 사례베이스를 구축하여 대량의 커뮤니티 콘텐츠 분석이 가능하다.
