This study examines the relationship between library anxiety and computer attitude with references to the variations in the college students' gender, grade level, academic majors, frequency of library visits, and the perception towards mobile-phones in order to explore the possible measures for minimizing library anxiety amongst the students. The study results show the computer anxiety and the computer usefulness to be the computer attitudinal factors most closely correlated with the level of library anxiety. Our proposed solution is the development of a user training course and curriculum to lower students' computer anxiety while promoting greater computer usefulness.

기술의 발전에 따라 사회, 경제, 산업에서 다양한 변화를 겪고 있다. 이러한 변화를 4차 산업 혁명이라고 부르며, 이러한 변화를 주도하는 기술로 로봇이 주목받고 있다. 로봇은 다양한 연구에서 교육적 효과가 뛰어나다는 것이 확인되었고, 이에 따라 로봇을 교육에 도입하기 위한 다양한 연구가 진행되었다. 하지만, 로봇교육과 관련된 다양한 요인이 로봇 교육의 활성화를 저해하고 있었다. 특히, 다른 나라에 비해 예비 교사의 로봇에 대한 태도는 부정적이었으며, 이러한 부정적인 태도는 2015 개정 교육과정에서 로봇 교육의 어려움을 유발할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 예비 교사의 로봇에 대한 태도와 다양한 요인에 따른 차이를 분석하였다. 연구 대상은 K 대학에 다니고 있는 317명의 예비 교사이었으며, 예비 교사의 로봇에 대한 태도를 측정하기 위하여 선행 연구에서 활용한 Negative Attitude towards Robots Scale(NARS)를 사용하였다. NARS를 통하여 예비 교사의 로봇에 대한 태도를 살펴본 결과, 성별에 따라 예비 교사의 로봇에 대한 차이가 나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 로봇을 조작한 경험과 로봇 관련 강의를 수강한 여부가 로봇에 대한 태도가 차이 나게 만드는 요소인 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 반대로 매체를 통한 로봇을 접촉한 경험은 로봇에 대한 태도에 관련이 없었다. 이와 같은 연구를 통하여 예비 교사의 로봇에 대한 태도에 미치는 요인을 살펴볼 수 있었다. 향후 연구에서는 예비 교사의 로봇에 대한 태도를 긍정적으로 바꾸기 위한 방안에 대한 연구가 필요하다.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of education between CAI(Computer Assisted Instruction) and lectures for smoking cessation among male students who attended vocational high schools. Conducted from February 24th to April 26th, 2003, the study design was quasi-experimental with nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. The study subjects were 60 male students in K vocational high school in Daegu city, who were present smokers and had more than 7.0 ppm concentration level of carbon monoxide. Thirty students were randomly chosen as the experimental group which applied CAI education method for smoking cessation. The other 30 students served as the control group which received lecture education method of 40 minutes on four consecutive days. CAI education for smoking cessation was composed of ready-made individual learning contents, counseling by using cyber-communication, writing a letter to stop smoking, and writing a written agreement for smoking cessation. Lecture education for smoking cessation was composed of a ready-prepared lecture for the group, writing a letter to stop smoking, and writing a written agreement for smoking cessation. To measure smoking related knowledge, Jeong Ree Roh(1996)'s smoking related knowledge scale$(Cronbach's\;{\alpha}=0.84)$ was modified and used by the researcher. To measure smoking related attitude, Jeong Ree Roh(1996)'s smoking related attitude scale$(Cronbach's\;{\alpha}=0.91)$ was modified and used by the researcher. Smoking related knowledge scale's Cronbach's $\alpha$ was 0.83 in the pilot study and 0.93 in this study. Smoking related attitude scale's Cronbach's a was 0.80 in the pilot study and 0.98 in this study. To determine the smoking amount, the number of cigarettes smoked per day was checked. The concentration level of CO in the exhaled breath was measured (Micro CO Cat. No. MCO2, UK). Data was analyzed by $x^2-test$, t-test, repeated measures ANOVA. simple main effects, and time contrast test with SPSS/Win 11.0 program. The results of this study were as follows: 1. The first hypothesis. that 'Smoking-related knowledge score in the experimental group by using CAI education for smoking cessation will be higher than that in the control group by using lecture education for smoking cessation', was not supported. 2. The second hypothesis, that 'Smoking-related attitude in the experimental group by using CAI education for smoking cessation will be higher than that in the control group by using lecture education for smoking cessation'. was supported(F=6490.79. p=0.000). 3. The third hypothesis. that 'Smoking amount in the experimental group by using CAI education for smoking cessation will be less than that in the control group by using lecture education for smoking cessation'. was supported. 1) The third-1st sub-hypothesis. that 'The number of cigarettes smoked per day in the experimental group by using CAI education for smoking cessation will be less than that in the control group by using lecture education for smoking cessation'. was supported(F=134.19. p=0.000). 2) The third-2nd sub-hypothesis. that 'The concentration level of CO by ppm per one exhaled breath in the experimental group by using CAI education for smoking cessation will be lower than that in the control group by using lecture education for smoking cessation"' was supported(F=268.55. p=0.000). From the above results. CAI education can be an effective intervention to improve smoking-related knowledge and attitude. and to reduce the number of cigarettes smoked per day and the concentration level of CO by ppm per one exhaled breath. Lecture education can be effective to improve smoking-related knowledge. In the future, when CAI education and lecture education for smoking cessation are applied on the school nursing field. the students can gain a comprehensive understanding of smoking cessation, changes in smoking-related knowledge. smoking-related attitude and reducing smoking amount. Furthermore, CAI education for smoking cessation could be developed as an individual self initiative program and could give a guideline to apply CAI education for smoking cessation in other field.

This descriptive-comparative study attempted to examine the differences according to the year in college of 288 junior college nursing students attitudes about mental illness. The instrument used for this study was the OㆍMㆍI (Opinion about Mental Illness) scale developed by Cohen and Struening. Data collection was done from the 27th to the 30th of September, 1988 by means of a questionnaire. Data were analyzed by computer, using the t-test and Analysis of Variance. The finding of this study are as follows : 1. Hypothesis I: “There will be a difference in attitudes toward mental illness according to the year in college 1"There will be a difference in the attitude about authoritarianism-according to the year in college" was rejected(F＝.5675, P＝.5676). 2 "There will be a difference in the attitude about benevolence-according to the year in college." was accepted(F＝.5376, P＝.5848). 3. "There will be a difference in the attitude about mental hygiene ideology-according to." was accepted (F＝17.3497, P＝.0000). 4. "There will be a difference in the attitude about social restrictiveness-according to" was rejected (F＝1.7416, P＝.1771), 5."There will be a difference in the attitude about interpersonal etiology-according to" was accepted (F＝10.8597, P＝.0000). 2. Hypothesis II : "There will bed difference in attitudes toward mental illness." according to whether or not the student have had clinical practice in the psychiatric ward. 1.There will be a difference in the attitudes about authoritarianism - according to "whether or not the student's have had clinical practice in the psychiatric ward was rejected(t＝.59, p＝.555). 2. "Whether they have had clinical practice at the psychiatric ward or not, There will be difference in the attitudes about benevolence." was rejected (t＝1.34, p＝.182). 3."Whether they have had clinical practice at the psychiatric ward or not, there will be difference of the mental hygiene ideology attitude." was accepted (t＝2.72, p＝.008). \circled4 “Whether they have had clinical practice at the psychiatric ward or not, there will be difference of the social restrictiveness - attitude." was rejected (t＝-.59, p＝.557). 5. "Whether they have had clinical practice at the psychiatric ward or not, there will be difference of to interpersonal etiology-attitude." was accepted(t＝3.55, p＝.001). In conclusion, it was found that the higher the year in College, the more positive the attitudes are about mental hygiene ideology and interpersonal etiology. This study suggests that more positive attifudes about psychiatric illness can be induced by a more effective educational experience. The main limitation of this study was that the sociocultural background of Korea is not considered in the OㆍMㆍI scale.
