A change request in design education is a phenomenon manifested by changes in the value of the industry and market demands. Changes in external requirements and internal values that affect the design industry today are shifting from consumer-centered design to stakeholder-centered design. At the center of these changes, design education should be transformed into an educational mechanism that conforms to the characteristics of each field and design specialization should coincide with the direction of the capitalist market. Design specialization must realize the policy of education in economic value first, and should be changed to a design process that enhances rationality and efficiency from the previous apprenticeship education.

The term "social marketing" was first introduced in 1971 to describe the use of marketing principles and techniques to advance a social cause, idea, or behavior. Social Marketing is a strategy for changing behavior. It utilizes concepts of market segmentation, consumer research, product concept development and testing, directed communication, facilitation, incentives, and exchange theory to maximize the target adopters' response. Social marketing requires knowledge of each target-adopter group, including its 1. social demographic characteristics, 2. psychological profile and 3. behavioral characteristics. To know the target adopters in these three related ways enables social marketer to make more accurate predictions. In addition to differentiating among and selecting target adopter groups, the social marketer will identify influence-holding groups, or influentials, who can affect a program's success. Great changes and opportunities exist to produce changes in the ways that individuals and groups think and behave and in meeting human needs. The balance of the scales of social change, we hope, will shift away from the use of force and violence to the use of persuasion and voluntary action. I trust that this dissertation will be useful highlighting the strategies and means of peaceful, planned social change designed to elevate the quality of life.

많은 사람들은 미래에 발생할 일에 대한 결정을 내리기 전 수 많은 생각과 심리적 변화를 겪게 된다. 특히 우리 삶에서 자신의 직업과 같은 경제적 및 사회적 측면에 대한 고려와 함께 중요한 선택을 하게 되는 상황에서 그 선택은 미래에 경험하게 될 후회의 정도에 따라 현재의 행동이 결정된다. 이러한 심리적 기제는 이미 심리학과 마케팅 분야에서는 감정 및 정서적 요인들이 의사결정 과정에 직접적이고 중요한 영향을 미친다는 사실에 공감하며 관련 연구들이 활발히 이루어져 왔다. 이처럼 창업 분야에서도 예비창업가들이 창업을 결정하기 위한 중요한 심리적 요인으로 후회라는 감정이 직접적으로 영향을 미치는지 확인할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 많은 창업가들의 의사결정에서 발생되는 예상되는 후회(anticipated regret)가 창업 행동(entrepreneurial behavior)에 영향을 미치는 가를 살펴보고자 하였다. 그리고 이와 아울러 창업가의 예상되는 후회가 창업 행동에 영향을 미칠 때, 창업가의 자기 충족적 예언(self fulfilling prophecy)과 창업가적 열정(entrepreneurial passion)의 수준이 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 알아보고자 한다. 이를 위해 창업가의 예상되는 후회와 목표지향성, 그리고 창업가적 열정에 대한 선행연구를 검토함으로써 가설을 설정하였다. 그리고 이를 검증하기 위해 창업가 145명을 대상으로 두 차례에 걸쳐 설문을 실시하여 연구를 진행하였다.

The rapidly evolving social platform marketing landscape has led businesses to increasingly rely on social platform influencers for brand and service promotion. Despite growing interest in these influencers, there remains a dearth of empirical research examining the impact of their characteristics on consumer attachment and brand loyalty. This study, therefore, investigates the relationships between social platform influencer characteristics, consumer attachment, and brand loyalty. An online survey targeting Chinese consumers was conducted, and a total of 360 responses were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS software. The findings reveal that among the various social platform influencer characteristics, reliability, professionalism, and intimacy significantly influence consumer attachment. Furthermore, it was confirmed that higher attachment to a social platform influencer leads to increased brand loyalty.
