The present study assumes that active and voluntary actions of organizational members in domestic enterprises can improve organizational performance as they have to seek differentiated strategies and changes in the midst of infinite competition. Considering the nature of psychological empowerment and proactive behavior, the study conducted a survey on members of companies with 100 or more workers of a certain size and used 300 samples for the study. Accordingly, this study attempted to investigate the relationship between personal factors influencing overall organizational competitiveness, i. e. job engagement, proactive behavior and psychological empowerment. Also, the mediating effects of job engagement on the relationship between psychological empowerment and proactive behavior were also examined here. The analysis established the relationship between psychological empowerment, job engagement and proactive behavior. Also, psychological empowerment was found to exert positive influence on job engagement and proactive behavior to a significant extent. Likewise, job engagement proved to have positive influence on proactive behavior to a significant degree. In addition, the mediating effects of job engagement on the relationship between psychological empowerment and proactive behavior were confirmed. Based on these findings, this study suggested relevant theoretical rationales and practical implications.

The study has compared the effects in SNS-utilized instruction that each of self centric activities and social interaction added social activities affected self initiative, attitudes and self efficacy to information technology respectively. The research methods utilized the pre experimental design as nonequivalent experimental group. The data was analyzed by paired t-test and content analysis. The results showed that the SNS class utilized self-centric activities were effective in self-initiative and attitudes toward information technology, while social interaction added social activities were effective in not only self-initiative and the attitudes of information technology but also self efficacy of information technology. And content analysis of the effects of the education showed that information sharing, instancy and accessibility were advantageous but information security and privacy issues were problematic. That is, it was confirmed that when self-centric activities and social interaction activities were practised simultaneously in SNS-utilized instruction, the self initiative which learners planed and executed by themselves, the attitudes and self efficacy of information technology which were able to enhance learning ability and to show satisfaction to individual learning were improved.

The purpose of this study is to empirically verify the effects of positive psychological capital on participation in lifelong learning as well as the mediating effect of self-directedness of adult learners in Korea. The research model was constructed using positive psychological capital as an independent variable, lifelong learning participation performance as a dependent variable, and self-directedness as a mediating variable. The results of the study are as follows: First, positive psychological capital of adult learners has a significant effect on self-directedness and participation in lifelong learning. Second, self-directedness has a significant effect on participation in lifelong learning. Third, self-directedness plays a mediating role between positive psychological capital and participation in lifelong learning. The results of this study indicate that positive learning psychology and self-directedness are important factors for participation in lifelong learning. The results of this study are expected to contribute to the development of lifelong learning systems and the development and operation of programs that can enhance positive psychological capital and self-directedness of adult learners.

본 연구의 목적은 청소년기업가정신교육 효과성검증에 관련한 선행 연구에서 잘 다루어지지 않았던 4가지 변인(자기주도학습, 메타인지, 진로정체성, 기업가인식)이 청소년기업가정신교육 후에 통계적으로 유의미하게 상승하였는지 탐색적으로 분석해 보는데 있다. 이를 위하여 2020년 및 2021년 JA Korea-삼성 청소년기업가정신교육 프로그램에 참여한 고등학생 101명을 대상으로 자기주도학습능력, 메타인지, 진로정체성, 기업가인식 요소를 교육 사전-사후로 나누어 대응분석을 수행하였다. 연구 분석 결과, 2020년 및 2021년 JA Korea-삼성 청소년기업가정신교육에 참가한 학생들의 자기주도학습능력, 메타인지, 진로정체성, 기업가징신 요소는 모두 통계적으로 유의미하게 상승하였다. 이는 향후 청소년기업가정신교육 연구에 있어 교육대상자의 역량 변화와 성장에 미치는 요인을 파악하고 다양한 요소 간의 관계 분석을 하는데 있어 기반이 되는 연구로 활용될 것으로 기대한다.

The purpose of this study was to analysis the causal model between self-directedness, learning flow, career decision and self-efficacy, and career exploration behavior of undergraduate students. A survey was conducted on 604 undergraduate students, and Structural Equation Modeling was used to analyze. The major findings were as follows: First, learning flow and career decision self-efficacy were found to have positive impacts on career exploration behavior. However, self-directedness was found to have no significant direct impacts on career exploration behavior. Second, self-directedness was found to have positive impacts on learning flow and career decision self-efficacy. Finally, learning flow and career decision self-efficacy were found to have perfect mediating effects on the relationships between self-directedness and career exploration behavior. Considering the size of the specific indirect effect, the mediating effects of learning flow was relatively larger than those of career decision self-efficacy. Based on the results, discussions to increase career exploration behavior were made as well as suggestions for future research.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of income-led growth path induced by government and consumption expenditures. Six of Nordic countries, Latin American countries and South Korea are selected for this purpose due to the fact that these countries have been pursuing income-led growth policy for more than the last decade except South Korea. The structural equation is formulated based on the government and consumption expenditures with lagged variable, and the GLMs estimation is employed for empirical analysis. Although the impacts are not overwhelmingly effective, empirical evidence suggests that income-led growth path contributes to stimulate economic activities which are associated with increasing in national income in Nordic countries and South Korea. However, the income-led growth path is quite weakly operated. Furthermore, it is even unstable in Latin American countries. In addition to this, the policy target would rather be focused on middle consumption group than low consumption group. Overall, it would be concluded that the income-led growth policy should be implemented for complementary purpose. And, it also has to be mentioned that sustainable growth may not be achievable by this policy.

This study examined the impact of self-directed learning on job satisfaction, organizational commitment. Also, it verified moderating effects of organizational culture(centralization, decentralization) in the era of global competition. The results of this study are as followings: 1) self-directed learning(acceptance of responsibility for learning) is positively related to job satisfaction, organizational commitment, respectively. 2) centralization moderated on the relationship between self-directed learning(acceptance of responsibility for learning, self-confidence as a learner, future orientation) and organizational commitment. 3) decentralization moderated on the relationship between self-directed learning(future orientation) and organizational commitment. We discussed the implications of these of findings for both theory and practice.

The purpose of the study is to identify the relationship among the variables related learner's satisfaction, flow experience and self-directedness and verify the path model of causal relationship among those variables in web based computer e-learning. Based on the theoretical rationale, we hypothesized the path model including learner's satisfaction as outcome variable, flow experience and self-directedness as causal and mediating variables. A total of 193 students were participated in this study and the main results showed as follows: 1. Learner's self-directedness showed significant (p<.01), indirect effect on learner's satisfaction mediated by flow experience and the flow experience showed significant (p<.01), direct effect on learner's satisfaction; 2. Among 7 constructs of self-directedness, 'creative approach', 'love of learning', 'self-confidence as a learner' showed significant (p<.01), indirect effects on learner's satisfaction mediated by 'clear goals' construct among flow experience.
