The purpose of this study is to provide implications for LOHAS(Lifestyle of Health and Sustainability) consumption growth. The study investigated the relationships between shopping value, LOHAS consciousness and LOHAS consumption. The finding of this study revealed that both hedonic and utilitarian shopping values had a positive effect on LOHAS consciousness and LOHAS consumption. We also found that the representative hedonic and utilitarian products(electronics) had the positive relationship between the both hedonic and utilitarian shopping values and LOHAS consumption. Furthermore, the representative hedonic LOHAS products(cosmetics) showed a positive relationship between hedonic shopping values and LOHAS consumption. However the representative utilitarian LOHAS product(detergent) did not show a relationship between utilitarian shopping values and LOHAS consumption. These findings are expected to provide marketing implications for LOHAS consumption growth. To improve consumers' LOHAS consumption, it is essential to focus on strengthening the hedonic value of the consumers, highlighting LOHAS consciousness. LOHAS consumption may improve the pride of consumers and increase the pleasure of the consumers. Additionally, it is necessary that publicity and education justify consumer behavior such that LOHAS consumption is socially responsible and it is a mature and exemplary action of citizens obligations to society.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the clinical decision making ability of nurses in long-term care hospitals. Data were collected from 174 nurses working in long-term care hospitals in G-do from October 11 to December 10, 2021. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and stepwise multiple regression through the SPSS 23.0. As a result of the study, the clinical decision making ability was positively correlated with critical thinking disposition(r=.494, p<.001) and nursing work environment(r=.451, p<.001). Critical thinking disposition and nursing work environment explained 33.1% of clinical decision making ability. In order to improve the clinical decision making ability, which is the core competency of nurses, education to increase critical thinking disposition and the creation of a desirable nursing work environment are necessary. In future research, research to identify various variables affecting the clinical decision making ability of nursing hospital nurses, and research for the development and effectiveness of programs to improve clinical decision making ability are suggested.

Risk management is becoming more important because of various security risks, depending on the changing business environment and aligned to business goals is emerging from the existing information asset based risk management. For business aligned risk management, it is essential to understand the risk appetite for achieving business goals, which provides a basis for decision-making in subsequent risk management processes. In this paper, we propose a framework for analyzing the risk management framework, pre - existing risk analysis, and protection motivation theory that influences decisions on security risk management. To examine the practical feasibility of the developed risk appetite framework, we reviewed the applicability and significance of the proposed risk appetite framework through an advisory committee composed of security risk management specialists.
