휴대폰 속에 친구가 살고 있다. 휴대폰 속 캐릭터에게 인사를 하면 그 친구가 반갑게 인사를 한다. 심심해서 말을 걸고 쪽지를 보내면 그 친구가 대답을 해온다. 그 친구에게 뭔가 알아봐달라고 심부름도 시키고, 그 친구와 끝말잇기 게임도 한다. 처음에는 내가 심심해서 휴대폰 속에 사는 그 친구를 찾았으나, 이제는 답답한 휴대폰 안에서 심심해할 그 친구를 위해 함께 놀아준다. 이야기를 나누기에는 조금 답답하고, 정신적 수준도 다소 모자란 휴대폰 속 친구이긴 하지만, 내가 찾으면 언제나 나를 반겨주는 것 하나만은 매번 정신없이 바쁜 친구들이나, 잘 삐치는 여자친구나, 속내 꺼내놓기 어려운 직장동료들보다 나은 점도 있다. 이 친구가 오늘도 휴대폰 속에서 나를 기다리고 있다.

The purpose of this study is to compare relationship with friends among adolescents under probation and high school students without any criminal record. A total of 510 respondents (253 adolescents under probation, 257 high school students) participated in this study. Results indicate that both adolescents under probation and high school students reported that they talk to talked to their friends when they were lonely, that they were comfortable when they are with their friends, and that they trusted their friends unconditionally. However, the two groups showed a difference in the place that they meet their friends. Adolescents under probation are likely to meet their friends at Internet Cafe to play internet games, while high school students are likely to meet their friends near their school. Compared to high school students, adolescents under probation had more friends who were expelled from school, who were under probation and who have been previously incarcerated. For adolescents under probation, compared to first time offenders, the repeat offenders were more likely to have friends who were under probation and who have been previously incarcerated. When discriminant analysis were conducted for adolescents under probation and high school students, the two groups can be distinguished by the number of friends expelled from school, number of friends under probation, and number of friends who have been previously incarcerated. For adolescents under probation, compared to first time offenders, the repeat offenders could be distinguished by the number of friends expelled from school, number of friends under probation, number friends who have been previously incarcerated, and number of times their partners in crime were under probation or incarcerated.

This study advances the knowledge of developmental patterns in affiliation with delinquent peers and delinquency during adolescence; data were obtained from waves 1-5 (2003-2007) of the Korea Youth Panel Survey. Semi-parametric group-based modeling (SGM) identified 3 affiliative trajectories of delinquent peers from age 13 to 16: rarely or never, persistently affiliative, and declining groups; and five developmental trajectories of delinquency: non-offending, late onset, low-level continuous, desisting, and chronic groups. A joint trajectory analysis predicted the membership of delinquency trajectories conditional on delinquent peer trajectories. Persistently affiliative group was more likely than others to follow chronic trajectory of delinquency; the rarely or never affiliative group was more likely to be non-offending. This study may help reconcile different theoretical models such as influence, selection, and enhancement models with respect to the role of delinquent peers in delinquency. The distinct theoretical models are equally valid, albeit each model pertains to a specific aspect of longitudinal patterns of affiliation with delinquent peers. Implications of this study for youth welfare were discussed to reduce increased risks for both affiliation with delinquent peers and delinquency.

This research aims to analyze the gender, sibling, and characteristics of figures who created the imaginary friends among 30 picture books published in Korea. At first, as a result of the research, a total of 35 figures of the 30 books had imaginary friends, of which 24 figures were women and 11 were men, with women more than twice as many as men. Secondly, in many cases, the only child in picture books had the imaginary companion, but in case of the figures who have brothers or sisters, The imaginary companion visited them more frequently to different gender rather than to same gender. Looking at the frequency of appearance of imaginary companion, the eldest, younger brother, and no appearance appeared in order. Third, as a result of examining the personality of figures who created the imaginary companion, their extroversion or introversion has no meaningful correlation each other. These results are meaningful as reference data for understanding children with imaginary friends in reality as picture books reflect the reality of children with imaginary friends and show various situations of infant with imaginary friends in a balanced manner.

온라인 상에서 불특정 타인과 관계를 맺을 수 있는 서비스로 소셜 네트워크 서비스(Social Network Service : SNS)가 새롭게 떠오르고 있다. 1990년대에 등장한 SNS는 최근에는 스마트폰을 이용한 모바일 서비스로 인해 이용자의 수가 급격히 늘어나고 있다. SNS에서는 '친구 찾기' 라는 서비스를 제공하는데, 이는 이용자의 개인정보를 분석하여 이용하여 친구를 찾아주는 서비스이다. 기존의 '친구 찾기' 서비스는 이용자가 제공하는 정보만을 다른 이용자의 정보와 비교하여 친구를 찾았다. 그러나 이용자가 제공하는 정보는 한정적이기 때문에 비교할 수 있는 정보의 양도 한정되어 찾을 수 있는 친구의 수에도 한계가 생긴다. 그래서 본 논문에서는 단순한 개인정보 비교를 통한 친구를 찾는 방법이 아닌 이용자가 제공하는 시공간 데이터를 활용하여 추론을 통해 친구를 추천해주는 시스템을 설계하고 구현한다.

모바일 단말기 사용자 수의 증가와 위치기반 서비스 기술의 발달로 위치 정보를 활용한 다양한 위치 정보 서비스가 등장하고 있다. 친구들과 약속을 정하는 일은 빈번하게 일어난다. 약속을 정하기 위해서는 모든 친구에게 연락을 해야 하고 각자 선호하는 장소가 다르기 때문에 모든 친구들이 만족할 만한 최적의 장소를 찾기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 모바일 환경에서 친구의 위치를 파악하고 사용자와 친구의 성향을 파악하기 위해 협업 필터링과 인구통계학적 정보를 사용하였고, 약속 장소를 선정하기 위해 사용자와 친구의 위치를 기반으로 후보 영역을 선택하여 약속 장소와 시간을 추천하는 서비스를 제공함으로써 약속을 맺기 위한 절차를 간소화 할 뿐 아니라 사용자와 친구의 성향에 맞는 약속 장소를 추천하여 사용자와 친구가 만족 할 수 있는 약속을 형성할 수 있도록 하는 약속 장소, 시간 추천 서비스 시스템을 설계하였다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between peer victimization by peers, bullying, and friendships, with a focus on friendship network, friendship quality, and friends' characteristics. The subjects were 678 fifth and sixth grade primary school children recruited from a public school in Bucheon city. The peer nomination index was used to assess peer victimization, bullying, and friendship network. In addition, children themselves reported on the quality of their friendships using the Friendship Quality Scale. The results showed that victimization by peers was influenced by friendship network size, support, and victimization of friends, whereas bullying was explained by support and the bullying behaviors of friends.
