'Control of Locus of Reinforcement(LOCR)' is considered one of the main important factors on responsible environmental behaviors(REB). It is defined as 'an individual's perception of his or her ability to bring about change through his or her behavior'. This phychological construct is divided in two, external locus and internal locus. Internal locus of reinforcement is important as predictor for REB. Lately, 'The Environmental Action Internal Control Index:EAICI' was developed. It is a valid and reliable instrument to measure relationships of two variables. The purposes of this study were to analyse the orientation of LOCR in high school students and relations with LOCR to REB. By the results, EAICI scores of total students, males, females are 99.83, 95.10, 104.56, respectively. LOCR of females was stronger and more internal than one of males. The item scores for behaviors that reduce the amount of household trash by reusing and recycling and convince someone to do this are 4.31, 4.05, respectively. The item scores for behaviors that convince someone to sign a petition regarding on environmental issues, convince someone to reuse envelopes by putting a label over the old address and convince someone to keep car tires properly inflated are 3.09, 3.09, 3.04, respectively. It shows that EAICI scores are dependent upon the degree of the chances and experiences to meet the various environmental events.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether elementary children's time-use and self-regulated learning ability was different according to gender and whether children's gender and time-use effects self-regulated learning ability. Participants were 2,122 children who participated in KCYPS longitudinal study from their first grade to third grade. Time-use was reported by children's parents. Children's self-regulated learning is invented by Yang(2000). Components of self-regulated learning scale was achievement value, mastery goal orientation, action control, academic time management. The major findings were as follows. First, children's self-regulated learning was different according to chidren's gender. Girls' achievement value, mastery goal orientation, academic time management scores were higher than the boys'. Second, children's daily time was different according to their gender. Third, children's daily time-use affected their self-regulated leaning, however children's gender didn't.

This paper is concerned with identifying the determinants of committing digital piracy in university settings. Using a theoretical model based on Theory of Reasoned Action, the causal relationship among the research variables, including intention to commit digital piracy, attitude, subjective norm and fear of legal consequences, is developed. Results from 295 survey responses indicate that fear of legal consequences affect the subjective norm and the attitude, which in turn influence the intention to commit digital piracy. In addition, relativism based on EPQ(Ethics Perception Questionnaire) is introduced as a moderating variable. The relative influences of path coefficients are investigated and implications from findings are also discussed.

Previous research on the action effect had shown how simple action towards a stimulus can enhance the processing of that stimulus in subsequent visual search task (Buttaccio & Hahn, 2011; Weidler & Abrams, 2014). In four experiments, we investigated whether semantic representation of action word can induce the same attentional boost towards that stimulus and whether the type of action performed can modulate the action effect. In experiment 1, we replicated the same experimental paradigm displayed in previous studies. Participants were first shown an action word cue - "go" or "no". When the action cue was "go", participants were to press a designated key, but not to when the action cue was "no". Next, participants performed a visual search task, in which they reported the orientation of a tilted bar. The target could appear on top of the previously shown prime object (valid), or not (invalid). Reaction times (RTs) to the search task were measure for analysis and comparison, and the action effect had been replicated. In experiment 2, participants were instructed to respond with the keyboard for the action task, and to respond with the joystick for the visual search task. In experiment 3, participants were instructed not to press any key on the onset of prime, and then perform the visual search task to isolate the effect of semantic representation. Lastly, in experiment 4, participants were instructed to press separate keys for "go" and "no" on the onset of prime, and then perform the visual search task. Results indicate that semantic representation alone did not modulate the action effect, regardless of type of action and medium of action.

Relapse is one of the most series problems in alcoholics treatment. Previous studies have shown that significant proportions of treated alcoholics show an early relapse and go through a chronic phase. It is necessity to find more effective relapse prevention program. The Purpose of this study was to develop a relapse prevention program that emphasis on group activities using various action methods. Previous studies revealed that there was no effective therapeutic strategy to prevent relapse and proposed that action methods were more practical ways to be able ti cope with high-risk situation than verbal methods such as discussions and lectures. The special attempt of this program was the application of various actions methods and the integration of many psychosocial therapeutic strategies as compared with many relapse prevention programs. The theoretical framework of this relapse prevention program was based on mainly the Marlatt's Relapse Prevention model and Prochescha and DiClemente's Transtheoretical model. This Program consists of eight structure sessions. Every session has three phase: Warm-up phase, action phase, and sharing phase as sociodrama structure. Sociodrama is based on many of the principles of adult learning. And sociodrama looks at how groups work through an understanding of systems and role theory. Therefore, in working with a group a therapist might explore with them the roles that people play, roles that are missing at present such a visionary and how people can develop new roles or new ways of playing existing roles. The researchers explained the purpose of this study to all participants after their agreement to participate. Voluntary informed consent was obtained from all participants. Every session allows participants to recognize personal specific high-risk situation and to examine possible coping behaviors creatively. Multiple solutions can be proposed, tested and evaluated dramatically, giving new insights or breakthroughs in thinking. This is vital for the initiation of change, and if appropriate, expanding new role development. The first two sessions aim at understanding of relapse process and recognize of high-risk situations focused on orientation about action methods. The next four sessions deal with high-risk situations. The last two sessions give participants opportunities to venture new life-styles. The methods and approaches used in this program utilized as a tool to explore and practice possible coping strategies. and this program can contribute to prevent relapse episode if tune with the particular high-risk situation by using active practices in safe environment.

Injection time of liquid crystal (LC) by capillary action in a vertically aligned (VA) nematic LC cell takes longer than that in a homogeneously aligned (HA) LC cell because Miesowicz viscosity in the former is bigger than that in the latter. To reduce liquid crystal injection time in the VA cell, we applied vertical electric field while injecting so that the orientation of LC molecules is changed from vertical alignment to homogeneous alignment. Consequently, the injection speed is improved by 25 % when compared with the cell without an applied field.

Nd : YAl3(BO3)4 (NYAB) single crystal has been developed for green laser. In this experiment, we found K2O/3MoO3/0.5B2O3 to be a suitable flux for NYAB crystal growth, and grew NYAB crystal by TSSG method using this flux. By varying the cooling rate of solution, seed orientation, and rotation speed, the effects of these growth conditions on the crystal quality and its morphology were examined. Suitable growth conditiions were a cooling rate slower than 2.4$^{\circ}C$/day, the rotation speed of 25~30 rpm, and the <001> seed orienttion. The phases of grown crystal, coexisting and volatile materials were investigated by X-ray diffraction. In addition, the possiblity of laser action was examined by UV analysis.

액션러닝은 팀기반으로 실제의 문제를 해결하는 교수-학습방법이다. 최근 대학에서 액션러닝을 도입하여 대학의 현장적합성을 반영하고, 이론과 실제를 겸비한 교육으로의 변화를 추구하는 움직임이 일어나고 있다. 그러나 학습자들이 강의식 수업 또는 다른 팀기반 학습에 비하여 많은 학습노력에 대한 부담감을 느끼고 있으며 교수자들이 이에 대한 수업의 불성실한 참여 및 불만족을 우려하고 있다. 이에 이 연구에서는 학습자들의 성취목표지향성이 학습과정의 개인 노력과 팀노력 그리고 결과만족을 설명할 수 있을 것이라 보고 이들의 관계를 탐색하였다. 분석 결과 숙달접근의 학습자들은 학습노력을 많이 기울이며 결과에도 만족하는 것으로 나타났으며 회피접근보다는 수행접근의 학습자들이 학습 노력을 많이 기울이며 학습결과도 만족하는 것으로 해석되었다. 따라서 액션러닝을 설계하고 운영할 때, 수업방법의 의미와 학습노력 및 결과에 대한 의미부여와 공감을 충분히 하여 숙달접근이 아닌 다른 성취 목표지향성을 보이는 학습자들을 독려할 수 있어야 하겠다.

A theoretical investigation of the origin of the spontaneous firing in the squid axon was done with a mathmatical computer modelling based on the Hodgkin-Huxley equation. It is strongly believed that the existence of calcium ions in the membrane is essential to cause firing. The results of the computer simulation of the modelling indicate that the sites of calcium ions in the membrane might be near the potassium channel and the leakage channel plays an important role in the firing. The orientation of the future research project was suggested. And also, a theoretical investigation of the origin of the firing in the propagating action potential was done in the same way.

Mechanical factors in the human body are considered to play a dominant role in low back problems. Various spinal structures. including muscles, act in unison to resist the external load. An estimation of the muscle forces in this structure requires a knowledge of the orientation, location and area of cross-section of the muscles to complete the formulation of a truly three-dimensional mathematical model of the spine. The geometric parameters which are calculated were the line of action, the centroid and physiologic area of cross-section of each muscle as a function of the spinal level. This geometric data were obtained from CT scans of 11 subjects participating in this study.
