This study investigated different individual, family, friend and school variables that affect adolescents' deviant behaviors. The sample consisted of 897 eleventh grade adolescents. Statistics and methods used for the data analysis were Cronbach's alpha, two-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and hierarchical regression. The major results were as follows. Male and female students' deviant behaviors had a positive correlation with sensation seeking traits, deviant behaviors by peer groups, school maladjustment, and maltreatment-experiences from parents, but a negative correlation with communications with parents. In female students', deviant behaviors had a negative correlation with self-esteem. The important variables predicting deviant behaviors were deviant behaviors of peer groups, sensation seeking traits, emotional maltreatment-experience, kind of high-school and school maladjustment for male students, compared to deviant behaviors of peer groups, kind of high-school, sensation seeking traits and school maladjustment for female students'.

The objectives of the present research are twofold. First, this research aims to compare the effect of trait characteristics(sensation seeking, social resistance and type-A behavior) with that of driving specific characteristics(driving anger and type-A driving) on problematic driving behavior. Second, the role of life stress as a mediator in the relationships between general trait characteristics and traffic safety index was examined. 1158 licensed commercial vehicle drivers were surveyed and their accident-related records were obtained in this research. Results showed that driving specific characteristics were significant indicators of traffic safety and life stress mediated the relationships between general trait characteristics and traffic safety index. These findings implicate that understanding drivers' driving specific characteristics and their levels of life stress is important to reduce problematic driving behaviors and enhance traffic safety.

Ideas regarding acting among new theater groups In the 1960s can be summarized in two major trends. The first trend was characterized with the pursuit of identity in a play. The second trend was characterized with the pursuit of creating a play that strongly and passionately explores internal human reality. In their pursuit of the goal of the second trend, they shockingly and strongly destroyed anything by rising in revolt against the existing spatial language. They believed that acting beyond acting as pursued by Stanislavski is not to implant a new type of human, but to develop the self hidden within the actor or to remove the actor's mask. Based on such recognition, the first thing that actors have to do is to remove or break free from the shell or skin that surrounds them. Accordingly, they sought a method that helped them act while taking off their shell or mask during acting and finally got the answer from "improvisation." One thing with improvisation is its way of stimulating the unconscious world of the actors in order to allow them to strongly express the hidden instinctive emotion from deep within them.

Prior research on consumer psychology has primarily focused on when and why consumers exhibit impulsive behavior, such as impulse buying. This study focuses on physical stimulation during an impulse purchase as another meaningful factor. Specifically, this study examines whether thirst depletes cognitive resources. The results of two experiments show that impulse purchase tendency increases when consumers are thirsty (Exp. 1), and that the loss of self-control is based on the relationship between thirst and impulse purchase tendency (Exp. 2). These findings suggest that physical stimulation, such as thirst, may be a useful indicator of impulsive behavior in consumers.

This study was conducted in order to explain the effect of driving behavior determinants such as drivers' personality and attitude that may induce risky driving behavior and to develop a valid method for discriminating risky drivers using the determinants. In the results of surveying 534 adult drivers, 5 driving behavior determinants (avoidance of problems, benefit/stimulus seeking, interpersonal anxiety, interpersonal anger, and aggression) were found to have a statistically significant effect on drivers' various risky driving behaviors. Using these factors, drivers were grouped according to risk levels (normal drivers, unintentionally risky drivers, and intentionally risky drivers). This result suggests that drivers' dangerous behavior level can be predicted using psychological factors such as their personality and attitude. Accordingly, if the driving behavior determinant model and the base score system used in this study are improved through further research, they are expected to be useful in predicting drivers' recklessness in advance, identifying problems, and providing differentiated safe driving education services based on the results.

This study is what I tried to know on a magnitude of Novelty in a tourist souvenir. A purpose of sightseeing development is to satisfy a sightseeing experience of various tourists. Novelty of a tourist souvenir is to make an experience with unique pleasure for only the sightseeing place that is not the place of residence to be able to feel. It must be a thing of the new level that it is not for a tourist to already know it, and it was not able to forecast. The tourist knew that I bought an emotional impulse than rational purchase through study. Therefore, you must take the Novelty element that a firm name works on in a perception of a customer as an important due in a souvenir plan. Reference wishes to work in tourist souvenir design development participants through this study result.

This study aims to redefine Vlog, ASMR, and Muk-bang contents as 'Need Fulfillment Video Contents,' which are emerging as major genres among the video contents. And this study explores the relationships between consumers' motives, viewing satisfaction, and consumers' characteristics such as demographic characteristics, big five personality traits, and individualism-collectivism tendencies in terms of uses and gratifications theory. Statistical analysis techniques such as factor analysis and hierarchical regression analysis were used to analyze 441 samples. As a result, age, income level, and collectivism were found to influence consumers' choice of Need Fulfillment Video Content genre. It was also found that the motivation of using Need Fulfillment Video Contents consisted of five factors: self-assessment and improvement, sensory stimulation and relaxation, entertainment, escapism and passing time, and following trends. Also, each usage motive influenced the viewing satisfaction in various ways. Based on the results of the analyses, the study concludes with discussion of the academic significance and practical implications for Need Fulfillment Video Contents industry development.

As public attention on Well-being culture increases, it is now considered to be a new trend of modern society. The purpose of this study is to publicize the necessity of design products which are advanced in quality and encourage the use of it. The researcher judged that study on design of lighting product to adopt well-being trend is in preliminary level and aims to research on the tendency of well-bing trend and lighting design which the consumer of this age is demanding. As the result of changes in modern consumption trend, design is considered to be a factor of capricious cultural phenomenon. In addition to this, as high technology such as ubiquitous develops with the degitalisation and informatization, the consumer are paying attention to dynamic products rather than static products or products which respond to external stimulus. Products which adopt well-being trend pursuing nature friendly life are particularly preferred It means that not only the basic function of products but also design which satisfy the five sense is required. Modern consumers use products in various way. However, the pro-environmental and human-centered tendency is tried only in very limited area and general study on this matter is extremely rare. This study analyzes the factors which intercepts the adoption of well-being trend to lighting products and seeks for an alternative to solve the problem. Interaction design with well-being trend was adopted to lighting design and the result presented that there is a possibility to differentiate existing lighting design by adding interaction design to the existing lighting design. Therefore, the need for further study on this matter is presented.
