This study compared and analyzed parental leave and child allowance, two major policies among solutions to the current serious low fertility rate problem, using unstructured data, and sought future directions and implications for related response policies based on this. The collection keywords were "low fertility + parental leave" and "low fertility + child allowance", and data analysis was conducted in the following order: text frequency analysis, centrality analysis, network visualization, and CONCOR analysis. As a result of the analysis, first, parental leave was found to be a realistic and practical policy in response to low fertility rates, as data analysis showed more diverse and systematic discussions than child allowance. Second, in terms of child allowance, data analysis showed that there was a high level of information and interest in the cash grant benefit system, including child allowance, but there were no other unique features or active discussions. As a future improvement plan, both policies need to utilize the existing system. First, parental leave requires improvement in the working environment and blind spots in order to expand the system, and second, child allowance requires a change in the form of payment that deviates from the uniform and biased system. should be sought, and it was proposed to expand the target age.

This study aims to investigate the relationship between service recovery justice, residual emotions, and customer behavior. It empirically verifies that low justice in service recovery affects residual emotions and, in turn, has an impact on customers' negative behaviors. Furthermore, this research distinguishes customer-brand relationship quality into emotional relationship quality and cognitive relationship quality and seeks to validate that the type of relationship quality may influence the extent to which the justice of recovery processes affects residual emotions. Data was collected through surveys, and hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling. The research findings indicate that among the dimensions of service recovery justice, procedural justice and interactional justice significantly influence residual emotions. Moreover, residual emotions have a significant impact on both the intention to revisit and the intention to engage in negative word-of-mouth. In addition, the impact of distributive justice and procedural justice on residual emotions was found to be higher for cognitive relationship quality than emotional relationship quality, and the impact of interactional justice on residual emotions was found to be higher for emotional relationship quality than cognitive relationship quality.

This study aimed to analyze the impact of mental strength on the competitive performance of student Taekwondo sparring athletes. A total of 343 middle school, high school, and university students registered as Taekwondo sparring athletes with the Korea Taekwondo Association were conveniently sampled. The Mental Toughness Test developed by Loehr was utilized after expert consultations. Data analysis involved t-tests and one-way ANOVA to assess the levels of mental strength sub-factors based on general characteristics, followed by post hoc tests using the Schéffe method for intergroup comparisons. Correlation analysis and multiple regression were conducted to examine the relationship between sub-factors of mental strength and competitive ability. The results indicated significant differences in mental strength sub-factors-confidence, level of awakening regulation, visualization and mental imagery regulation, motivation level, positive energy, and attitude control-based on gender and age among Taekwondo sparring student athletes. In terms of perceived competitive ability, significant differences were found based on age and sports experience. Consequently, beyond psychological training, the study revealed that age and diverse experiences positively influence specific aspects of mental strength among Taekwondo sparring student athletes. Therefore, coaching and training for these athletes, particularly during middle and high school years, should incorporate psychological aspects alongside diverse competition experiences and training to help overcome performance evaluation anxieties during matches.

Hemitripterus villosus, a promising aquaculture fish species, is facing declining stocks. This study aims to provide normative standards for skeletal development to address persistent skeletal deformities in farmed fish. Specimens utilized in the study underwent artificial insemination with captured fish, and the resulting larvae and fry were preserved in a formalin solution. The skeletal ossification process commenced immediately after hatching, affecting the parasphenoid, premaxillary, maxillary, and dentary structures at an average total length of 13.65±0.71 mm (n=5). By sixty-five days post-hatching, ossification extended to the ethmoid and supraorbital, completing the head's development at an average total length of 21.24±0.50 mm (n=5). Clavicle ossification occurred at seven days post-hatching, corresponding to an average total length of 14.61±0.52 mm (n=5). At forty-four days post-hatching, the ossification of 4 actinosts took place, completing the shoulder girdle, with an average total length of 18.15±0.61 mm (n=5). Vertebral ossification initiated at ten days post-hatching, with an average total length of 14.80±0.65 mm (n=5). By fifty-four days post-hatching, 39 vertebral columns were ossified, reaching an average total length of 18.67±0.54 mm (n=5). Vertebral development was complete at sixty days post-hatching, with an average total length of 20.25±0.45 mm (n=5). This study sheds light on the skeletal development of H. villosus, providing valuable standards and fundamental data for understanding skeletal deformities in this species.
