The purpose of this study is to look into the effect of wearing color lenses on one's image and was based on 221 college students in Gyeonggi-do and Gangwon-do. I examined how it appears as the evaluation factor visually. After by looking in the different image effect and relevance as to the classified evaluating factors, I tried to look into what effect the color lenses has on woman eye and image. The result is as follows. It appears that wearing color lenses makes one look fancier, more attractive, sophisticated, and favorable, whereas not wearing color lenses makes one look softer, weaker, more innocent, and comfortable. Analyzing these evaluations showed that wearing color lenses has most to do with attractiveness followed by pureness, familiarity, and decorativeness in order, whereas not wearing color lenses has most to do with familiarity followed by attractiveness, pureness, and decorativeness. It is considered that eyes with color lenses on them make the person seem decorative, attractive, and pure, which brings effect of improving one's eye and face image. Analyzing the correlation between each color lenses-wearing factor and one's image showed that when a person is wearing color lenses, the more the person is considered decorative, pure, and attractive, the more it has to do with improving the person's eye and face image. The result, therefore, shows that wearing color lenses makes one's eye and face image attractive, pure, and decorative, and wearing them is an important means to improve one's eye and face image.

Virtual community, which is formed on the internet, is expected to serve the needs of members for communication, information, and knowledge sharing. The executives of organizations should consider operating strategy of virtual community as a new innovation or knowledge pool since members share knowledge. However, many virtual community have failed due to members' low willingness to engage and furthermore to share knowledge with other members. Thus, there is a need to understand and foster the determinants of members' loyalty in virtual community. The objective of this study is to develop an integrated model designed to investigate and explain the relationships between contextual factors, personal perceptions of virtual community, usefulness, ease of use, familiarity, members' trust, reputation, community trust, attitude, satisfaction and loyalty. Empirical data was collected from 286 internet users and tested using structural equation modeling to verify the fit of the hypothetical model. The results show that the usefulness, familiarity significantly influences attitude and members' trust is significantly influence the community trust. And I confirmed that ease of use and attitude play the role of determinants in making the satisfaction, community trust and reputation influence the satisfaction that have the direct effect to making the loyalty. The results of the study can be used to identify the loyalty in virtual community. By investigating the impacts of contextual factors and personal perceptions on virtual community, the integrated model better explains behavior than other proposed models. This study might help executives of virtual communities and organizations to manage and promote community trust, attitude, satisfaction to stimulate members' willingness to revisit the community and futhermore enhance their virtual community loyalty.

This study surveyed visitors' perceptions of Mudeungsan National Park's Seoseokdae Trail Section (STS) on the visitor reservation system (VRS). Data were collected from 248 visitors to STS selected through convenient sampling in May 2019. The majority (86.9%) of the respondents rated their overall experience in STS as either "no problem at all" or "little problem". Moreover, 43.0% of the respondents were aware of the VRS. The most popular information source for VRS was the Internet (49.7%), followed by other people (18.4%) and broadcasting media, e.g., TV (17.7%). While 69.9% of the respondents thought that implementation of VRS would be effective in improving managerial conditions of the STS, respondents perceived that "cumbersome reservation procedures" (79.3%) of the VRS operation was the most important problem, followed by "unfairness associated with Internet familiarity gap" (78.7%) and "deprivation of the opportunities to visit freely" (76.3%). The support for VRS implementation was higher among higher-aged, married, higher-educated, more frequent STS visitors, Gwangju residents, and solo visitors than the other groups. The "knowledge level about VRS" and "the awareness level about potential problems associated with VRS operation" negatively influenced the support for the implementation of VRS, while "the perceived managerial effectiveness of VRS" positively influenced it.

Icon is a small graphic which represents a particular function in computer interface. Comprehension and learning of icons are needed for using them because they represent some meanings. This study was conducted to examine which were more important factors in using icons. First, representational characteristics of icons were examined. Second, using a eyetracker, the way of coding of redundant display was examined which removed obscurity of display and gave more meaning to a user. Icons using attribute of object and direct discription of action were more efficient than icons of other representational form in comprehension. Redundant display was proved to have some advantages, especially when the icons had low familarity. Visual information processing of icons were discussed according to familarity and learning.
