Courtship behavior of the sweet potato leaf worm, Aedia leucomelas L. (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) was observed under laboratory condition. Behavior of antennal Probing and wing fanning in presence of opposite sex was observed in dark room. Both male and female exhibited similar behavior, fanning wing and raising antenna before male flew toward female. Some of moths began raising antenna 20 minutes into scotophase, and 20 minutes later both sexes started to exhibit spectacular behavior, fanning the wings intermittently in high frequency as if producing sound for attracting opposite sexes. They began mating about one day after emergence and mating activity was peaked from 4 to 6 days after emergence. Multiple mating was observed and the copulation lasted 207 minutes in average. There was an evidence that female emit sexual communication signal and male respond to it, and it seemed that the sound production is possibly a part of the courtship behavior of sweet potato leaf worm.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of an increase in self - determination experience on the behavior of young children with autism spectrum disorder by telepresence robot. As for research method, the study used AB design, two selected children engaged in activities with a telepresence robot in free play time in the morning. The activities were conducted in 19 sessions, twice a week, 15 to 40 minutes each. To investigate the effect of the activity on the child's behavior was observed using the behaviors of free play time and work time in the afternoon. All the process was recorded by a camera and then analyzed by frequency recording. The results of the study are as follows. First, the participation of young children with autism spectrum disorder in free play time increased. Second, choice-making or preference behavior of young children with autistic spectrum disorder were increased. This study suggests that increasing the self-determination experience of young children with autism spectrum disorders using telepresence robots increases their participation and increases their choice-making or preference behavior.

The purpose of this qualitative study was to develop a social skills training program for improving early school-age children's social behaviors and to investigate its effectiveness by observing their experiences on the program with a qualitative method. Data were collected from 7 children using observer's descriptive notes and reflective notes, compliment notes by assistant leader, program leader's weekly journals, children's weekly journals, and video recordings. Four theme categories and 11 sub-lower categories emerged. Theme categories were (1) relationship building, (2) changes in emotional expressions, (3) changes in prosociality, and (4) changes in social skills. This study observed early school-age children's positive changes in social behaviors and emotional expressions through the social skills program.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate children's eating behaviors and teachers' feeding practices during mealtime at child-care centers. In addition, it focused on the difference of teachers' feeding practices on children age under 2 years ( ${\leq}2$ years old) and 3 years and older (3~5 years old). Methods: A total of 169 teachers working at childcare centers in Geumcheon-gu, Seoul, Korea, completed self-report questionnaires in December 2013. The questionnaires were composed of questions on children's eating behaviors, feeding practices; 'Explain', 'Praise', 'Modeling', 'Indulgent', 'Insist' and 'Reward', interaction with home, and a range of demographic information (analysis rate: 51.2%). Results: Approximately 59.2% of teachers had not taken a class on feeding practice and the average score for nutrition knowledge was 14.6 out of 30 points. The most undesirable eating behavior of children during mealtime was 'eating while walking around (36.7%)' both ' ${\leq}2$ years old' and '3~5 years old'. Regarding feeding practices according to children's undesirable eating behaviors during mealtime, there were differences between age groups. When children did not eat all of the foods that were served and did not clean up silverware or seats after having food, teachers caring for '3~5 years old' practiced 'Explain'. However, percentages of those who practiced 'Indulgent' and 'Modeling' were significantly higher in teachers caring for ' ${\leq}2$ years old' than '3~5 years old'. Conclusion: These findings indicated that teachers caring for children lack education and knowledge about nutrition and feeding practice. In addition, verbal feeding practices, like explain, were mainly used by teachers. As a result, for teachers, guidelines and programs for learning about age appropriate feeding practice during mealtime at child-care centers may be needed.

Almost teachers have some basic questions about the effective teaching and learning. The purpose of this study is to develop an alternative tool to observe and analyze an instruction based on the learning theories providing the theoretical rationalities for learners to study not only in daily their life but also in their class and to apply it as an example. This study showed some suggestions analyzing an instruction theoretically through out some filters based on learning theories. Recently various learning theories have been studied and accumulated. This study developed an alternative tool to observe and analyze an instruction based on the Behaviorism, the Cognitivism and the Constructivism in the middle of these learning theories and it was applied to observe and analyze a actual class of the informatics subject. The expectation is for teachers to reflect or improve their classes using the alternative tool.

Objective : This study examined the characteristics of the literature involving a single-subject research design among positive behavior support intervention studies to improve problem behavior in children with autism spectrum disorders and assess the quality level. Methods : This is a literature study, and the targets of analysis were nine single-subject research papers published between 2011 and 2020. The subject papers were analyzed by dividing them into general characteristics and the qualitative levels according to the content of the research method. Results : Analysis of analyzing the contents of the study showed that the subjects were preschool and elementary school-age children at the same ratio. Furthermore, the study design involved mostly the middle and multiple baseline designs among the behaviors. All papers presented social validity, intervention fidelity, and observer reliability. Problem behaviors included self-injury and aggression behaviors, disturbing behaviors, and seat break-away behaviors, while the most dependent variables were measured through partial interval recording. As a result of confirming the intervention effect, the effect was confirmed in intervention, maintenance, and generalization. All analysis studies showed high-quality levels. Conclusion : This study confirmed the content and qualitative level of the thesis that applied the single-subject research design among positive behavior support intervention studies for problem behaviors of children with autism spectrum disorders. Positive behavior support intervention, an evidence-based intervention for children with autism spectrum disorders, was confirmed an effective intervention for autism spectrum disorders.

In this paper, we investigated the effects of response technique which uses free tokens in the computer training for the mentally retarded person. We set wrong line entering. wrong space number entering, wrong line-type designation and wrong cell merger as the target behaviors in the research. The experiment period of the research was 36 sessions altogether, and the period was divided into four steps such as basic period I. treatment period I, basic period II, and treatment period II. We also conducted a follow up experiment to identify whether the experiment's effect is still maintained two weeks after the experiment finished. We know that the response cost technique which uses free tokens to the mentally retarded person is efficient in the computer training.

Suckling piglets must avoid positions with high air velocity because they don’t have hypodermic fat. Therefore this study examined the effects of air ejection on the behaviors of sows and their piglets. Compressed air was released for 5s at 5s intervals between floor and udder of sows only when they were standing or sitting. Sixteen multiparous crossbred(Landrace×Yorkshire) sows and their piglets were used. Behaviors of sixteen sows and their piglets were recorded for 4 days postpartum, using the LED lamp(wavelength:950nm), CCD camera(Samsung SDC-411), multiplexer(Samsung SDM-080), and time lapsed VCR(Samsung SRV-30). The videotapes were scanned every 30s to obtain an instantaneous behavioral sample. The sow’s standing and sitting rates between control group(CG) and air ejection group(AEG) were not significantly different(P＞0.05). This means that air ejection does not affect the behavior of sows. Frequency of the suckling piglets’ behaviors closely related to the crushing by sows was lower in AEG than in CG(P＜0.05). These results suggest that air ejection may be available for reduction of the crushing of suckling piglets by sows.
