  • This study was conducted to identify the empathy ability of nursing college students and prejudice and discriminatory behavior against the mentally ill and to analyze the relationship between them. The study included 281 nursing college students located on K province. Studies show that the empathy of nursing college students is positive for prejudice and discrimination behavior, negative correlation, prejudice and discriminatory behavior and that there are differences in empathy depending on whether they have experience in volunteer activities. Discriminatory behavior differed depending on the age and grade of the subjects. In order to reduce discriminatory behavior and prejudice among nursing college students, it will be necessary to increase direct and indirect experience opportunities to improve empathy and also to require systematic education and practical courses considering the characteristics of the subjects. This will contribute to improving the awareness and attitude of nursing college students as future professional nurses.

  • Objectives: The aim of this study was to describe HIV/AIDS knowledge, attitudes (discrimination towards HIV/AIDS and lives with HIV infected persons) and HIV/AIDS related sexual behaviors among middle school and high school students in Seoul, Korea. Methods: The population of this study was junior and senior high school students in Seoul, Korea. Eight junior high schools and eight senior high schools were randomly selected from Seoul City. Two thousand nine hundred and ninety-six responses from the sixteen schools were analyzed (fifty-nine were excluded). A self-administered questionnaire measuring socio-demographic variables, knowledge of HIV/AIDS, as well as discriminatory attitudes of HIV/AIDS was utilized. Results: The level of HIV/AIDS knowledge was low and the levels of discriminatory attitudes were high. The results indicated that students had considerable misconceptions about HIV transmission as well as stigmatizing attitudes towards HIV-infected people and their lives. The proportions of sexual intercourse were 1.3 % for middle school students and 7.7% for high school students. Only 30.7% of current sexually active subjects were to use condoms at the last step of sexual intercourse. The HIV/AIDS related risk-taking behavior were predicted by gender, school types, parents' marital status, reported academic performances, and attitudes towards to homosexuals. Conclusions: It is important to design HIV prevention strategies that improve in the knowledge of HIV transmission for adolescents in Korea.

  • In 1987, the Equal Employment Opportunity Law was enacted, which indicated the institutional regulation against gender-discriminatory labor practices. Until the late 1980s, women were forced to quit upon marriage. It had influenced negatively on women status in the labor market. In this paper, 1 try to examine how the institutional change affects young educated women's work behaviors. The change of the education and family effect on work will be examined. For analysis, data from 2002 Women's Work Survey is employed. The results show the followings. Among women of young generation, negative effect of education has disappeared and turned out to be positive among the never married. But, marriage and the family responsibility still influence negatively on young women's participation into the labor market. In making a decision to work, husband's attitude is more important than wife's own. But, among the single, women's own attitude toward work plays an important role. In overall, women of young generation is also influenced by the family responsibility as much as the previous generation. The negative effect of marriage and the family responsibility on women's working is stronger among the college educated women.

  • The purpose of this study was to confirm that the property generalization to social categories with low coherence is stronger when stress due to COVID-19 is perceived as high, compared to when stress is perceived as low. To this end, this study selected categories with high coherence(nun, soldier, flight attendant) and categories with low coherence(wedding planner, interpreter, florist), and recruited 336 participants to perform a category-based inductive generalization task(inferring how many properties repeatedly observed by some category members would appear across all category members), and measured their perceived COVID-19 stress. As a result, this study showed that when the cohesion of social categories is high, the effect of property generalization is stronger than when it is low, and the effect of property generalization is stronger in those who perceive stress due to Corona 19 higher than those who perceive it as low. In addition, this study confirmed that people who perceive COVID-19 stress strongly tend to generalize strongly to properties that are repeatedly observed in the low coherence category. This study is important in that it shows that there is a cognitive mechanism that is at the root of the phenomenon that stereotypes and prejudices deepen and discriminatory behaviors increase after the outbreak of COVID-19, such as COVID-19 stress and the resulting increase in attribute generalization tendency.

The research method was investigated by the judgment sampling method. The collected effective samples were validated using a confirmed factorial analysis to ensure the validity of the discriminatory validity and the internal validity of the convergent validity. First of all, the company should provide information to the people who eat alone to A recognize the simplicity of their meals. Second, we should ensure that the individual values of the Honbab people can be formed through various promotional strategies that can lead to the formation of attitudes. Third, companies should pursue diverse event strategies that can lead to the formation of attitudes of the people of the Honbab family. Fourth, event development such as the provision of a very special service for customers only will have to be conducted when visiting the stores of the Honbap people. Finally, companies should focus on promoting the convenience, convenience, and time-consuming advantages of eating alone through a variety of marketing, and strive to increase their customers.
