The subjects of this research were 384 men in the Chungbuk area and the effect of their attitude towards prostitution were analyzed. Subjects were divided into 3 age groups during the analysis and PASW Statistics 18.0 was used in material analysis. The main results of this study are as follows. First, the age group 'between 30 to 45 years of age' and 'between 45 to 60 years of age' displayed more positive attitude towards prostitution compared to the age group 'above 65 years of age'. Second, factors that effect the attitude towards prostitution were shown to be different depending on the group. In the age group 'between 30 to 45 years of age' and 'between 45 to 60 years of age', expressive coping behavior in sex coping behavior, official suppression, sexual equality awareness, work status, level of education were shown to have an effect. In the group 'above 60 years of age', controlled coping behavior in sex coping behavior, unofficial suppression, rate of satisfaction in conjugal relation, sexual equality awareness, physical condition were shown to have an effect. The significance of this research lies in the fact that it was the first to suggest prostitution prevention measure depending on the men's age group based on these objective analysis.

In order to examine the effects of circadian rhythm in subjective alertness on the occurrence of traffic accidents, the authors investigated the occurrence rate of traffic accidents adjusted to traffic volume in Seoul and the relative rate of fatal accidents versus total traffic accidents in Korea at different times of day in 1991. We analyzed these data in relation with the circadian rhythm in subjective alertness. The results were as follows. Both the occurrence rate of traffic accidents adjusted to traffic volume and the relative rate of fatal accidents versus total traffic accidents were the highest at 3-4 a.m., known as the time period of the lowest subjective alertness. They were negatively correlated with subjective alertness (p<0.05, p<0.001). In conclusion, it is suggested that the circadian rhythm of subjective alertness should have a significant effect on the occurrence of traffic accidents despite many confounding factors such as driving environments.

End-User Computing(EUC) is a rapidly growing phenomenon in organizations As EUC gets to be a major segment of information systems, it becomes more important to manage EUC effectively. This paper focuses on developing an integrative framework of EUC management in the contingent perspective. The characterstic of task for which EUC is implemented was considered as a contingent variable. Based on systematic review of previous research on success factors of EUC implementation, three generic variables for EUC management were identified theoretically, which were support, promotion and control. The contingent relationships between these three EUC management variables and EUC performance were reasoned and four hypotheses concerning these relationships were derived. A field study was undertaken to test the hypotheses. Data were collected from 83 End-Users belonging to Korean business organizations. Correlation analyses and Fisher's Z tests were employed to test the hypotheses. The results supported the hypotheses for the most part and gave implications and future research directions for the management for EUC.

The cloud service has become the significant factor to save the IT operation cost and to improve the productivities in companies. It was introduced to Korea for enterprise services of major companies in 2008. As the increase of recognition for its effect, more small businesses and public institutions plan to introduce the cloud computing services. The cloud computing researches have only focused on the security threats and response technologies to them. Therefore, this research analyzed the importances of responses to security threats in specific domains. The domains were divided into managerial, physical, and technical security. The specific factors in three domains were used for the analysis in this research as well. The ordered logit model was used for the analysis and the analysis results showed that physical security and managerial security are considered to be significantly important in the cloud computing security. The results also presented that the security policy, the control and surveillance to service infrastructure, and application security are highly important in the respect of specific factors. This research will contribute to enterprises or institutions in Korea, which want to introduce the cloud computing services, by aiding the establishment of effective security strategies.

This research aimed at identifying the influential factors on high school students' dress code compliance. Specifically, the relationship between the perceived strength and importance of dress codes and dress code compliance, and the relationship between dress code compliance and creativity, self esteem, and school adaptation were examined. For this purpose, reliability tests, multiple regressions, and t-tests were conducted using the data collected from 866 male and female students from six Co-Ed high schools located in Seoul. The results are as follows. First, the more students perceived the school dress codes to be stronger and more important, they were more likely to comply to the dress codes. Second, compared to the low-compliance group, the high-compliance group had higher self-esteem and creativity. Third, compared to the low-compliance group, the high-compliance group showed better adaptation to their teachers, classes, and school rules. However, the two groups were not significantly different in terms of their adaptation to peer groups.

The purpose of this study was to find the effect of intuitive free association and systematic free association on the creativity of high school students group in the conceptual design process. Based on this study result, the conclusion can be summarized as follows. 1. There was meaningful relation between intuitive free association and creativity factor of high school students. Mean value of experimental group A 's creativity and it's factor originality, practicality, elaboration, and fluency which treated intuitive free association was increased. 2. There was meaningful relation between systematic free association and creativity factor of high school students. Mean value of experimental group B 's creativity and it's sub factors: originality, problem solving, elaboration, and fluency which was treated systematic free association was increased. 3. It was found that two different divergent thinking does not show any meaningful difference in creativities of two groups. However, the meaningful difference was found in post creativity test in each groups sub-factors. There was meaningful difference in practicality factor, though there was no meaningful difference in originality, elaboration, fluency factors. Using the obtained results, it was concluded that intuitive thinking and systematic thinking play different roles in practicality which is one of sub-factors of the creativity of high school students. Consequently, it can be concluded that systematic thinking which leads students to take a step to solve a given problem can elicit more scientific thinking, and helps students create more practical solution in problem solving than intuitive thinking that emphasize the quantitative aspect of ideas.

The main purpose of this study is to provide the necessary information for educational intervention by discovering the components and factors related to the adaptation experience of male students in the department of nursing. The participants were seven male nursing students. Data were collected from in-depth interviews, and the results were analyzed by the Giorgi's phenomenological analysis method. The main components of adaptation experience of participants were summarized into four categories: 'hopes and expectations for the future careers,' 'conflicts and wandering under realistic issues,' 'compromise and emotion management,' and 'efforts for self-growth.' Causative, accelerative, and recursive characteristics were shown among these components. The adaptation process was structured in the temporal context. The results suggest that for amicable adaptation, internal controls, such as 'improving willpower,' 'inspiring solid career awareness,' and 'selecting adaptation strategy' were all critical. Moreover, the support of families, relatives, college seniors, and department professors were revealed as the factors that help in the adaptation experiences. Based on the results, further studies are required to identify the dropout rates by maladaptation of male nursing students, and analyze possible factors that contribute to dropout and maladaptation. In addition, it is necessary to construct various coping methods and practical support systems, as well as to develop appropriate educational programs.

This study constructs independent potential variables that are variables expected to affect child abuse reporting intention of child care teachers. In addition, this study establishes a research model based on the relationships between potential variables according to the results of previous studies and planning behavior theory. The purpose of this study was to examine what factors affect and how reporting intention is determined. The subjects of this study included a convenience sample of nursery teachers working in 67 daycare centers in the C region. The following results were obtained. First, the research model proposed in this study was found to be a suitable model to explain the child abuse teacher's intention to report child abuse through the analysis of the measurement and structural models. Second, the child abuse teacher's knowledge of child abuse is an important factor explaining the reporting intention and has an indirect effect through the mediation. Third, attitudes toward reporting of child care teachers were found to be the most direct factor that predicts reporting intentions. Fourth, subjective norms and reporting intentions of child care teachers were not statistically significant. Bsead on these results, basic data for improving child abuse reporting rate of childcare teachers were presented.

Based on a comprehensive literature review on Theory of Planned Behavior and Social Cognitive Theory, this study proposes and empirically examines a structural model consisting of factors affecting voluntary information security compliance behavior. To test the proposed research model, the study analyzes survey results from employees of a major Korean energy company, which employs an enterprise compliance support system. Results indicate three factors: compliance behavioral belief and compliance knowledge affect compliance behavior; compliance knowledge works as a mediator in the relationship between compliance behavioral belief and compliance behavior; and the more relevant the compliance is to an employee's job, the more the employee prioritizes compliance knowledge. This study suggests methods for encouraging employees to embrace voluntary, positive information security compliance standards. By doing so, this article aims to promote a more effective corporate compliance system for information security and enhance sustainable management practices.
