Purpose: The purpose of this study was to test the effect of simulation-based learning on knowledge, confidence, and critical thinking of paramedical students enrolled in the Korean Advanced Life Support (KALS) program. This study used a one group, pre-post test design. Methods: The subjects of this study were 79 paramedical students in D city. Data were collected before and after the simulation-based training using a structured questionnaire. The data were analyzed using SPSS version 22.0. Results: After the simulation-based KALS education, knowledge (t=-6.88, p<.001) and confidence (t=-10.12, p<.001) increased among paramedical students. There was a positive correlation between confidence and critical thinking disposition (r=0.37, p=.001). Conclusion: A practical module for simulation-based education that can improve knowledge, confidence, and critical thinking disposition related to professional resuscitation is needed for use with paramedical students. Additionally, follow-up studies should be conducted to verify the educational effects of such a program.

In this paper, a simulation-based method is presented to dispose direction finders in three dimensional space for locating targets using the directional data. A direction finder(DF) is a military weapon that is used to find locations of targets that emit radio frequencies by operating two or more DFs simultaneously. If one or more DFs are operated in the air, the accuracy of location estimation can be enhanced by disposing them in a better configuration. By extending the line method, which is a well-known algorithm for 2-D location estimation, into 3-D space, the problem of 3-D location estimation is defined as an nonlinear programming form and solved analytically. Then the optimal disposition of DFs is considered with the presented method in which methods of simulation and search technique are combined. With the suggested algorithm for 3-D disposition of DFs, regions in which targets exist can be effectively covered so that the operation effect of DF be increased.

This study aimed to investigate the differential effects of individual's cultural disposition (individualism-collectivism or horizontal-vertical thinking) and need for cognitive closure(NFC) on framing effects. For this purpose, the participants were divided into 4 different cultural disposition groups based on Singelis et al.'s[1] INDCOL scale, and 2 different NFC groups based on Lee's[2] NFC Scale, and then asked to respond on 5 decision making scenarios. The results can be summarized as followings. First, participants preferred risk-avoidant option in gain frame, whereas risk-seeking option in loss frame. Second, there are no difference of cultural disposition on framing effects, but high NFC group showed larger framing effects than low NFC group in loss frame. Third, collectivism and vertical thinking in high NFC condition showed larger framing effects than low NFC condition.

Recently as the economic circumstances have been getting worse, livelihood crimes like shoplifting have occurred considerably frequently. Shoplifting is the stealing behavior occurred in the retail shop such as department store, discount store, supermarket. Though there is economic and social risk of shoplifting, academic research of shoplifting has implemented scarcely. This study analyzes the shoplifting behavior in the retail store and its influencing factors, and aims to provide background of academic research of this field. So this study will give practical implication to reduce or prevent shoplifting behavior. As a result of this study, friend relationship and compulsive buying disposition influence the attitude of shoplifting behavior. But economic motive, stimulus pursuit disposition, and experience motive do not influence the attitude of shoplifting behavior. Finally to reduce or prevent shoplifting behavior, this study suggests the implications of this study and further research agenda.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of lessons based on flipped on nursing students' critical thinking disposition, academic achievement, and academic self-efficacy. Methods: The study design was a mixed methods paradigm. Participants were 82 nursing students (experimental group=41, control group=41) for the quantitative study, and nine nursing students for the qualitative study. A flipped learning lesson and lecture were provided in a class titled Critical Thinking and Nursing Processes to compare the effects of the flipped learning lesson. Quantitative data were analyzed with a chi-square test and an independent t-test. Qualitative data were analyzed by means of content analysis. Results: The critical thinking disposition (t=-5.90, p=.004) of the experimental group with flipped learning increased significantly, but their academic achievement (t=0.38, p=.078) and academic self-efficacy (t=-0.24, p=.053) did not show any significant change. From the content analysis after the flipped learning lesson, four categories and 13 sub-categories were derived. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that flipped learning is an effective teaching-learning method for improving nursing students' critical thinking disposition. Therefore, it will be necessary to consider teaching-learning management strategies for applying flipped learning in the nursing education field.

This study aims to investigate the relationship between consumers’ clothing consumption values, demographic features, and clothing disposal behaviors. The data were collected from 300 women aged between 20 and 59 through the online survey with the self-administered questionnaire. A series of exploratory and confirmative factor analysis was conducted to identify the dimensions of clothing consumption values and clothing disposition behaviors. Clothing consumption values consisted of six dimensions including conditional value, individuality value, fashion value, social value, practical value, and self-expression value. Clothing disposition behaviors were discovered as four dimensions such as discarding, giving, selling, and donating. A structural equation modeling analysis was employed to examine the relationship between clothing consumption values and disposition behaviors. While individuality value, fashion value, and practical value had a significantly positive impact on donating, giving, and discarding behaviors, both practical value and self-expression value negatively influenced discarding behavior. Fashion value negatively affected giving behavior. Employing a series of MANOVA, one-way ANOVA and sheffe's multiple range test, this study found that there were significant effects of age, marital status, monthly income, and monthly clothing expenses on giving and donating behaviors. This study suggests that fashion firms should be aware of clothing disposition in terms of social and environmental concerns and understand diverse consumer disposal behaviors and utilize them as a social marketing strategy.
