본 연구는 초등학생의 독서를 장려할 수 있는 심리적 요인을 탐색하기 위해 이루어졌다. 구체적으로 목표 달성에 영향을 미친다고 알려져 있는 해석수준을 조작하여 독서량에 미치는 효과를 확인하였다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 초등학생 200명을 대상으로 연구를 수행하면서 평소 독서 선호도가 높은 집단과 낮은 집단, 그리고 평소 독서량이 많은 집단과 적은 집단으로 구분하였다. 또한 독서를 왜 해야 하는지에 대해 생각해보는 추상적 해석수준 집단과 독서를 어떻게 해야 하는지에 대해 생각해보는 구체적 해석수준 집단으로 구분한 후, 2주 동안의 독서량과 독서가 얼마나 재미있었는지를 측정하였다. 그 결과 해석수준의 주효과를 확인하였다. 즉 구체적 수준의 해석을 한 집단이 추상적 수준의 해석을 한 집단보다 독서량이 많았다. 또한 평소 독서 선호도가 낮은 집단은 독서에 대해 구체적 수준의 해석을 할 때 독서량과 독서에 대한 재미가 증진되지만, 평소 독서 선호도가 높은 집단은 해석수준에 관계없이 독서량이 많고, 독서에 대한 재미가 높은 상호작용이 관찰되었다. 아울러 평소 독서량이 적은 집단은 독서를 구체적 수준으로 해석할 때 독서량이 증가하고, 독서에 대한 재미가 증진되지만, 평소 독서량이 많은 집단은 독서를 추상적 수준으로 해석할 때 독서에 대한 재미가 증진되는 상호작용도 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 행동경제학적 연구에서 다루어져 왔던 해석수준의 효과를 독서라는 교육적 지도 분야로 확장했다는 점에서 시사점을 가진다. 또한 평소 어떤 일을 선호하는 사람과 그렇지 않은 사람, 평소 어떤 일의 성과가 높은 사람과 낮은 사람에게 어떤 해석수준을 가지게 하는 것이 그 일에 대한 동기부여를 증진하는 것에 도움이 될 수 있는지 보여주었다는 측면에서 실무적인 시사점이 있다.

Recent advances in technology are evolving to enable individuals to perform various activities necessary for their lives, without being constrained by physical, temporal, and spatial constraints. The online services and experiences that originated from solving the discomfort in the actual offline space have created the newness that can only be experienced in the digital world and furthermore uniquely new experiences in actual space as well. While many previous studies have suggested several interpretations of unique individual behaviors in virtual environments, a recent research approaches virtuality as an interesting perspective of the change of thinking style. Virtuality is defined as how far apart we are from everyday reality, and if the individual faces a situation far from reality, the psychological distance of the individual becomes distant and ultimately leads to the thinking style of high construal level. Otherwise, it is said to have a relatively low construal level of thinking style. In this study, I try to confirm the virtual distance as the role of psychological distance in new virtual contexts. Simultaneously considering temporal distance, which are most used in psychological distance, and virtual distance based on virtuality, this study tries to find whether the effect of virtual distance on product attitude is the same as that of temporal distance and check the relationship between virtual distance and temporal distance in the context of consumers' product evaluations depending on product information type.

Social network service provides an excellent platform for people seeking for advices. This research analyzed the effect of rational and emotional response and social distance on people's acceptance for advices online by the construal level theory. An experiment was completed to test the relationship between advisers and questioners and verify the content of online feedback would influence people's acceptance for advices on social network site. The online response included emotional advice and rational advice. Social distance between advisers and questioners was divided to close social distance condition and distant social distance condition. The study showed: (1) comparing with emotional advice, rational advice had a higher persuasive effect in both close and distant social distance conditions; (2) the impact of feedback from people with close social distance was stronger than the impact of the advices from people with distant social distance; (3) there existed an interaction effect between social distance and affective advice. The results revealed that the adviser's affective expression and relationship with the questioner would interactively impact the online persuasive effect.

Purpose - This study's objective is to analyze the content of the communications between users and producers based on the construal level theory. User generated content refers to content created in an online-based service where users and producers communicate interactively with each other. In a user generated content platform, the messages sent and received between the many players, the users and producers who use the content, may be analyzed at the psychological level based on construal level theory. Research design, data, and methodology - This study gathered user and producer participation through a snow-bowling sampling method. The data analyzed includes 125 video clips and 2,912 comments. The period of the data collection was from September 2014 to December 2014. The collected data was analyzed using a t-test and two-way ANOVA. Results - This study obtained the following research results. First, users who were a short social distance from producers responded to user participatory activities stated in concrete language rather than abstract language. In contrast, users who were at a longer social distance from producers tended to respond to the content requesting user participation through abstract language. Second, if users and producers were at a short social distance from each other, user preference increased more when a producer response to user participation was expressed concretely rather than when it was expressed abstractly. In contrast, if the users were at a longer social distance, users' preferences increased more when producer response was expressed abstractly rather than when it was expressed concretely. Conclusion - This study found that the effect of suitability, in which the social distance and the content were in congruence at the construal level, could be observed. Therefore, based on this, academic and practical implications were drawn. The three main insights of the study are as follows. First, firms can use psychological factors to analyze the message content of users in their distribution platforms. This study reveals managerial implications for marketing managers who want to take make use of this analysis of user and producer communications. This study indicates that the main factors include the concrete and abstract scores and social distance between users and producers. Second, we also provide the strategic guidelines to maximizing user preferences and other outcomes. The main dependent variable in this study is the user preference shift; the variable increases through the congruence effect; and the construal level is determined by the social distance between the users and producers and the type of producer response. The outcomes here from users can be utilized to develop several systemic strategies. One process to use the outcomes could be: (1) firms could measure the users and producers social distance; (2) calculate the concreteness or abstractness of the messages; and, (3) predict the user preference outcomes by the congruence between user and producer social distance and the abstractness or concreteness of the message content.

Individuals often make their judgments on the basis of the ease or difficulty with which information comes to mind (for reviews, see Greifeneder, Bless, and Pham 2010; Schwarz 1998, 2004). Recent research, however, has documented that variables known to determine the degree of cognitive resources invested in information processing such as personal relevance (Grayson and Schwarz 1999; Rothman and Schwarz 1998), accuracy motivation (Aarts and Dijksterhuis 1999), and processing capacity (Menon and Raghubir 2003) can affect the extent to which individuals draw on metacognitive difficulty in making their judgments. The primary aim of this research is thus to investigate whether individuals with substantial cognitive resources or those with lack of cognitive resources are more likely to draw on metacognitive difficulty when making their product evaluations. The findings from two laboratory experiments indicate that individuals who perceive a greater level of fit between their self-regulatory orientation and temporal construal (Experiment 1), and between their self-construal and the type of product benefit appeal (Experiment 2) are more likely than those who perceive the lack of such fit to evaluate a target product less positively after thinking of many rather than a few positive reasons. The findings provide supporting evidence for the two-stage backward inference process involved with the effect of metacognitive difficulty on consumer judgments in that consumer judgments based on metacognitive difficulty may require greater cognitive resources than those based on the content of information generated. Also, the current research documents further empirical evidence for the relationship between self-regulatory orientation-construal level fit and cognitive resources such that perceived regulatory-construal level fit can increase consumer willingness to invest cognitive resources into their judgment tasks. Last, the findings can help marketers differentiate purchase situations where asking consumers to think of many positive benefits from purchase situations where asking consumers to think of a few key benefits is relatively more beneficial.

Purpose: Traditional charity retail needs to change its communication in the online environment. This article examines the effectiveness of communication by online charity organizations in terms of the type of messages being delivered. Research design, data and methodology: Study 1 based on a sample of 120 Korean adults, we investigated whether charity asking messages for domestic people, compared to those for foreign people, prompt more favorable evaluations when framed with low (vs. high) construal levels. In Study 2, with 120 Korean adults sample, we tested whether emotional message appeals prompt a more favorable response than rational messages when framed in a socially close. Results: According to the result of Study 1, for the domestic recipients, donation messages situated in the near, compared to the distant, future induced more favorable reactions from potential donors. Moreover, in Study 2, emotional (vs. rational) message appeals generated more positive donation intentions when they were framed in the socially close situation. Conclusions: This research contributes that differing consumer construal have important implications for how marketing communication might best gain charitable support. This suggests that marketers who design a donation message should consider message's appeal and type to activate the potential donors' willingness to participate in the campaign.

성인기에 발생하는 중도장애나 이혼과 같은 생애위기는 당사자의 독립성이나 상호의존성에 대한 도전을 수반하여 그러한 자기인식과 해석에 변화를 초래할 수 있다. 이 연구는 생애위기 경험자의 그와 같은 자기해석이 복합적일수록 긍정적인 자기특성이 양성되어 심리적 안녕이 높을 것으로 보고, 자기해석의 복합성과 심리적 안녕 간의 관계가 자기긍정성을 구성하는 세 요인, 즉 관점의 다각화, 자기수용, 자기조절에 의해 매개되는 경로를 조사하였다. 편의표집에 의해 서울과 수도권 지역에 거주하는 중도장애인, 이혼인, 일반인 비교집단 총 359명을 조사한 결과, 생애위기 경험집단이 평균적으로 일반인 비교집단에 비해 독립적 자기해석이 높았고, 상호의존적 자기해석이 낮았다. 복합적인 자기해석은 예측대로 의미 발견과 의미 부여를 돕는 관점의 다각화와 밀접하게 연관되었고 이를 통해 자기수용, 자기조절과 같은 긍정적 태도에 기여하였으며, 이 중 관점의 다각화와 자기수용을 통한 경로로 생애위기의 경험여부와 상관없이 응답자들의 심리적 안녕, 즉 긍정적 정서의 경험과 우울과 같은 부정적 정서의 감소를 도왔다. 관점의 다각화가 우울을 직접 낮추는 효과는 예측대로 생애위기 경험집단에서만 나타났고, 긍정적 정서를 양성하는 직접효과는 모든 집단에서 발견되었다. 따라서 관점의 다각화가 생애위기의 경험자들 사이에서는 의미 발견과 긍정적 태도 양쪽에 탄력을 주어 적응과 심리적 안녕을 돕는 반면 일반인들 사이에서는 우선적으로 긍정적 태도, 긍정적 정서 등 긍정성을 키워 심리적 안녕에 기여함을 추론할 수 있었다. 이 연구는 관점의 다각화와 복합적인 자기해석이 역경극복에 동력이 되는 의미 찾기를 도우며 긍정적 태도를 양성하여 생애위기 경험자의 심리적 안녕에 기여하는 기제와 심리적 자원으로 각각 기능할 수 있음을 시사하여, 이를 토대로 사회복지실천을 위한 함의를 논의하였다.

최근 기능성 게임의 긍정적인 영향에 대한 결과가 부각되면서 그에 대한 연구와 개발이 활성화 되고 있다. 기능성 게임은 기획단계에서부터 의도적인 목적을 가진 게임으로, 이용자에 대한 설득과 그에 따른 의식과 행동의 변화를 추구한다. 따라서 그러한 설득 효과를 극대화하기 위해서는 기능성 게임에서 이용자들이 선택적 행위를 하는 과정 속에서 작동하는 심리적 요소들을 정리하고 이에 대한 효율적 방안을 제시할 필요가 있다. 그러나 이용자들의 선택과 관련한 관점들을 고려하고 그에 따른 태도와 행위의 결과를 이론적으로 접근한 연구는 부족한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 이용자들의 심리적 거리 관념을 중심으로 그에 따른 행위에 중점을 두는 해석수준이론을 적용하여, 기능성 게임에 개괄적으로 적용할 수 있는 "CLT in process-outcome serious game model"을 제안하였다. 이를 통해 이용자들의 의사결정 과정에 해석수준의 개념과 효과들을 적절히 적용한다면 이용자들의 가치와 목적 중심의 설득을 강화할 수 있을 것이다. 또한, 이러한 모델은 기능성 게임의 개발자와 연구자들에게 궁극적으로 그 효과를 증대시킬 유용한 틀로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study investigated a conceptual framework of fashion consumers' purchase decision-making styles related to behavioral typology of personality. In response to critiques on fragmented and varied use of personality measurements, this study selectively tested and verified an alternative typological model of Enneagram value systems and self-construal levels that could explain the fashion consumers' typological propensities in purchase decision-making. One hundred-item measurement scale for the fashion consumers' purchase decision-making styles was developed based on the extensive literature. Three groups of fashion major students, a total of 107 participants, who respectively participated in 2-hour-long Enneagrams seminars from spring 2013 to fall 2014, were asked to re-sentence the question items to clearly reflect their Enneagram personality to make purchase decisions. Participants described their propensities in their own words about the most comfortable state during the 5-step processes of the purchase decision making process. The revised scale was distributed to 423 participants in January 2016, and the results verified the group differences in various styles in the process of purchase decision-making corresponding to the typological variables discussed in Enneagram. The correlation between Enneagram core values embodied by fashion consumers during the stages of purchase decision-making in extensive levels of self-construal were verified in the context of their fashion decision making. This study found the possibility of the typological approach toward Enneagram types of personality to be applicable to explain and predict peculiar facets of fashion consumers' purchase decision-making styles.
