Background: Since 2010, Korea has maintained a DNA database of those convicted of or awaiting trial for certain crimes. There have been proposals to expand the list of crimes included in this database, or conversely, omit certain crimes if they are committed during protests. An understanding of the feelings of the public as we consider the ethical, legal, and social aspects of a DNA database and as revisions to laws are made is required. Methodology: Questions related to the DNA database were included in the nationally representative Korean Academic Multimode Open Survey (KAMOS) panel (June-August 2016). Results: Of 2,000 randomly selected panel members, 1,013 respondents participated in this survey, including 89.2% who supported the existence of a criminal DNA database. The current system of storing DNA profiles until a suspect's acquittal or a convict's death was supported by 79.5% of respondents. In addition, 70.8% of respondents agreed with the expansion of crime categories included in the criminal database. Many (93.4%) respondents favored genetic testing and data storage to determine the identity and cause of death for people who die of unnatural causes. Some differences in attitude related to social class were noted, with those who self-identified as members of the upper class more likely to support the database and its expansion to include additional crimes than those who self-identified as middle or lower class. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that Koreans generally support the criminal DNA database.

As an emerging market with rapid economic growth, while being a key region of the K-culture expansion, Vietnam draws increasing scientific attention. This study focuses on the MZ generation, Vietnam's leading consumer group, revealing their consumption value structure. An online survey was used for data collection purposes, investigating 368 Vietnamese consumers between 18-37 years of age. Six value dimensions were derived as results of the present analysis: functional, emotional, social, ethical, self-expression, and autonomy-oriented value. Among them, functional value includes two sub-dimensions of utility and price, while emotional value entails three sub-dimensions, namely hedonism, novelty, and aesthetics. 'Self-expression value' and 'autonomy-oriented value', reflecting the characteristics of the MZ generation, who actively express themselves and respect proactive decision-making, are becoming important standards of the consumption attitude of young Vietnamese. Moreover, the pursuit of 'novelty' was derived as a factor reflecting emotional values, revealing an association between hedonic consumption, and seeking for newness and difference. Furthermore, the relationships between each consumption value dimension, respective demographic characteristics, and global consumption propensity were investigated. The present findings aim to provide insights into young Vietnamese consumers' attitudes and intend to serve as a foundation for future research.

This thesis discusses a performer's unpredictability and immediacy as a prerequisite quality and/or ability to facilitate his/her professional identity as a doer on stage. To examine the key principles and approaches, this research focuses on addressing a specific aspect of the performer's transformative experience from those, directors, and practitioners' concepts that inform and enhance the performer's passive readiness on stage. To be precise, this research attempt to interrogate and articulate the place and role of a performer's internal readiness and/or that of inner looking. The performer's inner intensity as seed of action signifies that his/her body is being in a state of listening to every tiny moment with his/her heightened awareness which in turn lead the performer's body to meet the demands of theatre, the whole-body engagement. Here, this thesis argues that the key principles of acting/training underlies the importance of a performer's ethical attitude and at the same time his/her responsibility for what the performer's choices and experiences within the performative involvement, that is, a process of preparation, are not technical matter but rather, the concepts, and/or approaches from those theatre artists' practical assumptions highlight a process of thorough encountering and/or listening to his/her body. Inhabiting and/or obtaining the principles through the performer's body means being free from his/her unnecessary trait(s) which in turn initiate and then move the whole body according to what is happening in the series of moment(s) on stage. What is more, such an appropriate psychophysical order reminds us of the significance of the nature of human/performer's body, namely, to being in a state of one's 'own' body as oneness. From this perspective, this thesis further argues that the performer's body necessarily need to be affected and/or triggered in a sense of responding to the given circumstance where the performer is working on in the here and now.

This study examines the effect of cosmetic certification marks on consumer behavior. The underlying objectives of this study are threefold. First, it explores whether the certification mark inserted into the cosmetic package-such as marks denoting quality assurances, ethical practices (specifically, pertaining to animal testing), and recycling packaging-affects consumer responses. Second, it investigates whether a higher number of certification marks leads to heightened positive consumer responses. Third, it analyzes the potential moderating effect of consumers' certification mark knowledge on the relationship between certification marks and consumer responses. In the pretest, certification marks with higher recognition were selected as stimuli, and a survey involving a total of 550 male and female consumers was conducted. The collected data were analyzed through ANOVA and post-hoc tests. The findings of this study confirm a significant difference in consumer responses to products based on the certification marks inserted in the cosmetic packaging. Compared to clusters without a certification mark, groups with two or more certifications (recycling certification + ethics certification, recycling certification + quality certification, recycling certification + ethics certification + quality certification) exhibit significant consumer responses. Second, more certification marks did not result in an increase in positive consumer responses. Third, a moderating effect of consumers' cosmetic certification knowledge on the certification mark-consumer response relationship was not found. The findings of this study have implications for developing product promotion strategies that leverage cosmetic certification marks as a marketing tool.

Seneca, the most influential classical Stoic and Justus Lipsius, the founder of Renaissance Stoicism suggest constancy, an unmovable strength of the steadfast mind based on reason and sound judgment, as a practical way or attitude in life full of both public and private evils. As a member of the Sidney family, Wroth is very much likely to have been influenced in molding her concept of constancy by Senecan and Lipsian Stoicism, which was introduced into England through Sir Philip Sidney's friendship with Lipsius. This paper explores Wroth's concept of constancy in Urania as a Stoic ideal in the context of the major Stoic writings of Seneca and Lipsius. While the titular character of the romance Urania shows some inherent attributes of Stoic constancy from the beginning of the romance, Pamphilia as the pattern of constancy gradually perfects the virtue through the ordeals of her love of Amphilanthus and her queenship. Her frequent retirements into private and secluded places are the essential occasions for her disciplining in Stoic constancy through self-examinations of her psychological and emotional disorders and poetry writing. Amphilanthus, a constantly inconstant lover, fully understands the importance of constancy in love as well in life only after his marriage to another woman and Pamphilia's marriage to another man. At the end of the romance they come to accept the vicissitudes of life in Stoic constancy. In Urania, Wroth transforms the strongly masculine Stoic constancy into a female heroic ideal. Thereby she presents those female characters as important political, ethical and cultural subjects and their constancy as a thread through the labyrinths of love and life.

Purpose - Recently, although corporate social responsibility activities have been increasing in size, they do not have to achieve qualitative improvements and can be passive and cost consuming. Therefore, companies should make quantitative as well as qualitative improvements in their efforts in corporate social responsibility activities. In this study, the classification of social responsibility activities in a variety of studies was analyzed through a more specific path than in previous studies. Corporate behavior image, social behavior image, and corporate contributions image were analyzed through a more detailed analysis of performance. This study suggests that more detailed and concentrated social responsibility activities be pursued by forming companies. Research design, data, and methodology - The purpose of study is to gauge the corporate need for a more intensive, specific area of CSR activities. For this purpose, the sample of consumers that were targeted for CSR activities, recognized as 261 persons, have been investigated. Through a theoretical discussion on previous research, nine hypotheses were established on corporate image, the influence of corporate performance on CSR, and the CSV regulation effect. In order to test the hypothesis, a survey was conducted on 261 male and female consumers who were targeted for CSR, being persons in their 20s to 40s. PASW Statistics 18.0 and AMOS 18.0 were used for statistical analysis. Results - Corporate behavior image was formed through legal responsibility activities and economic responsibility activities. In addition to economic responsibilities, ethical responsibilities and environmental responsibilities were confirmed to have influence on social behavior image. Corporate social responsibility and philanthropic responsibility were confirmed to have influence on economic contribution image. Corporate image has positive effects on brand attitude, corporate reputation, and corporate competition. In addition, when CSV awareness is high, consumers perceive corporate image only through economic responsibility. However, when CSV awareness is low, economic responsibility as well as legal responsibility through charitable activities form the corporate image that influences the brand attitude and corporate reputation, as well as corporate competitiveness. It would appear that the area of corporate social responsibility needs more intensive management for corporate image and corporate competitive advantage. Conclusion - First, the findings of this study show that each CSR activity has a different effect on corporate image and thus, the corporate image influences corporate performance in distinct ways, depending on the CSR activity. This implies that reactive strategies should be tailored to the required image. Second, there is a difference in CSV awareness between groups. When the CSV awareness is low, we can confirm that legal responsibility activities have an especially significant effect on corporate image, implying that corporations should pursue their economic objectives within legal regulations and need to invest significant time and effort for this. This study has limited generalization potential because the result of the model fit has insufficient reference value. In future research, we need to approach various dimensions of corporate performance.

생명공학의 사회적 함의에 대한 논의를 위해서는 일반 시민의 인식과 형성과정에 대해 파악할 필요가 있다. 이에 따라 생명공학에 대한 ELSI (Ethical, Legal and Social Implications) 연구의 일환으로 필자는 생명공학에 대한 사회적 인식의 지형을 정기적으로 조사하는 프로젝트를 시작하였다. 본 논문은 이 조사 프로젝트의 한 부분으로 생명공학에 대한 인지도 수준과 태도를 파악하고 관련 요인을 찾아보았다. 인식조사는 전국 성인남녀 500명을 대상으로 전화면접방법을 이용하여 이루어졌으며, 표본은 유층표집방법을 이용하여 추출하였다. 조사결과 의료 관련 생명공학에 대해서는 긍정적인 태도가 많았지만, 유전정보의 사회적 관리 및 유전자 변형식품에 대해서는 부정적 태도가 긍정적 태도와 비슷한 수준이거나 아니면 더 많았다. 그리고 인지도 수준이 높을수록 태도가 더 명확하였다. 또한 이러한 시민들의 태도는 아직 잠정적인 느낌 수준인 경우가 많으며, 매스미디어의 영향을 많이 받은 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 생명공학에 대한 사회적 함의에 대한 논의가 보다 건설적이기 위해서는 우선 생명공학에 대한 정보의 생산과 유통이 보다 활성화될 필요가 있다는 것을 보여준다.

최근 소비자들은 제품을 구매할 때 제품의 본질적인 특성 뿐 아니라 기업의 투명성과 윤리성 특히 공정무역제품에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 일반적으로 공정무역을 하는 기업의 제품이나 서비스에 대해 소비자들은 긍정적인 태도를 가지게 되어 제품을 구매하게 되는 윤리적인 마케팅으로 간주 되지만 이를 실증한 연구는 거의 없다. 본 연구는 공정무역과 관련된 소비자의 구매의도를 파악하여 실제로 공정무역의 행위가 기업의 경쟁우위가 될 수 있는지 수단적 이해관계자 이론과 신호이론에 근거하여 실증분석 하였다. 첫 번째 실험은 순수 실험 디자인 중 피실험자 내 디자인을 통해 소비자 구매의도의 공정무역 마케팅 효과를 조사하였다. 두 번째 실험은 소비자 구매의도의 공정무역인증의 효과를 테스트하기 위해 시행되었다. 연구결과 소비자들은 일반적인 제품보다 공정무역제품을 선호한다는 결과를 도출하였으며, 공정무역인증 제품인 경우 그렇지 않은 제품보다 프리미엄 가격을 지불하고서라도 소비하려는 성향을 파악하였다. 또한 공정무역인증 라벨을 부착한 제품이 판매되는 장소에 따라 다른 결과를 도출하였는데, 이는 향후 기업이 목표로 하는 소비자에 따라 차별화된 제품을 유통해야한다는 시사점을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 보인다. 본 연구 결과는 기업이 목표로 하는 기대성과를 위하여 보다 차별화되고 중점적으로 활동할 수 있는 기업의 사회적 책임활동 방향을 제시할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

본 연구는 중환자실 간호사들의 DNR에 대한 윤리적 문제의 인식과 태도를 파악하여 DNR 환자간호에 도움이 되는 기초자료로 활용하고자 시도하였다. G광역시 상급종합병원 1개소, 전라 남 북도 700병상이상 종합병원 각각 1개소 중환자실에 근무하는 간호사를 대상으로 2014년 8월 1일 부터 9월 5일까지 설문조사하여 154부를 최종분석 하였다. 첫째, DNR 결정 태도는 치료를 거부하는 환자의견에 반대, 예후가 좋지 않은 환자라도 생명의 연장에 찬성, 환자가 원했을 경우 어떠한 상태라도 DNR 미실시, 보호자의 요구에 의한 치료와 가망 없는 환자의 CPR실시에 반대하였다. 둘째, 환자가족에 의한 인공호흡기 및 다른 치료의 적극적 실시에 반대, 보호자의 중환자실 입실에 대립적인 입장을 보였다. DNR 환자에 대해 의사의 인공호흡기의 소극적 사용에 찬성, 환자의 신체적 심리적 안정을 위해 기본적인 간호도 줄여야 하고, 무균술을 지키지 않은 처치에 묵인하는 입장이며, 가족에 의한 환자의 상태변화를 주치의에게 여러 차례 보고하는 것에 반대하였다. 셋째, 의사의 관심감소를 인정하고, 이에 보호자의 항의가 있을 때 의료팀을 옹호하며, DNR 결정을 주치의가 내린 것에 대립적인 입장이며, DNR 지침에 따른 결정에 반대하였다. 예후가 좋지 않은 환자에게 그대로 설명하는 것에 반대 또는 중립적이며, 환자나 보호자에게 환자상태를 있는 그대로 설명하는 것과 사망에 가까운 경우 환자나 보호자에게 상태를 그대로 설명하는 것에 반대하였다. 결론적으로 DNR 주체는 환자이며, 환자의견이 충분히 반영 되어야 하며, 의료행위의 범위와 결정과정에서의 갈등을 최소화하고 환자중심의 윤리적 의사결정이 되도록 DNR 결정에 대한 표준과 지침이 필요하며, 충분한 설명을 근거로 한 동의가 이루어 져야하겠다.
