  • The study in this paper, which is part of a bigger study investigating non-cognitive characteristics of Korean students at the 4-12 grade levels, aims to identify the influential characteristics that explain students' decision to give up on mathematics learning. We consider seven non-cognitive student characteristics: value, interest, attitudes, external motivation, internal motivation, learning conation and efficacy. Data were collected from 21,485 Korean students, and were analyzed with a logistic regression method using SPSS. The findings show that efficacy was the most significant indicator of students' decision to give up on mathematics learning in all three grade level bands: elementary (4th-6th), middle (7th-9th) and high (10th-12th). In particular, the causal model analysis shows that students who highly value mathematics tend to have stronger internal and external motivation, which bring about stronger interest and learning conation, which in turn lead to positive attitudes and strong efficacy regarding the learning of mathematics. It was further found that while external motivation was a significant indicator of upper grade level students' decision to give up on mathematics learning, it was only a moderate indicator for lower grade level students. The findings of this study provide useful information about which non-cognitive areas need to be focused on, in what grade levels, to help students stay on track and not fall behind in learning mathematics.

  • Fostering students' positive affect related to mathematics such as attitudes toward mathematics and dispositions toward learning mathematical concepts is one of the major goals of school mathematics programs. In this study, we collected data from students at the 4-1 grade levels to develop an instrument that measures students' affect regarding mathematics learning. To develop the instrument, we first conducted focus group interviews, which we recorded, transcribed, and analyzed. We sorted the results according to seven components of the non-cognitive domain of mathematics learning, which drew from taxonomical constructs of previous research. We then conducted a pilot study in which we administered the instrument as a pretest and a posttest. We chose the final items based on confirmatory factor analysis and a reliability test of the pre and posttest scores. The final instrument contains 24 items, which are classified according to the seven components: interest, attitudes, value, external motivation, internal motivation, learning conation, and efficacy. We anticipate this instrument will be useful for studies that need to measure students' non-cognitive characteristics in relation to learning mathematics.

  • The purpose of the study was to examine the relationships among gender, shopping motivations, flow experience, and purchases using structural equation modeling. Shopping motives were included in the study: self-refreshment, idea seeking, social interaction, product acquisition, and value seeking. Data from 452 male and female respondents were employed to test the model. Empirical findings supported that the proposed model was a good fit to data. Gender played an influential role in shopping motives. All motives except for product acquisition motive significantly influenced flow experience. Flow experiences enhance the purchasing. This study contributed the literature by providing a conceptual foundation of how gender and shopping motivation influence flow experience.

  • This study aims to examine the important factors of flower shops' store attributes influencing the repurchase intention for people who buy flowers for themselves with a hedonic shopping motivation. This study was verified by empirical survey and the results are summarized as follow. First, it was found that price, salesperson's professionalism, store accessibility had a significant positive impact on the repurchasing intention of flowers. Second, it was found that price is the first important factor influencing the repurchasing intention of flowers, and next salesperson's professionalism is the second important one, and lastly store accessibility is the third important one. For implications of this study, this study investigated the cause-and-effect relationship between flower shops' store attributes and the repurchasing intention of flowers for people who buy flowers for themselves with a hedonic shopping motivation, so it provides a theoretical foundation for further studies.

The Effect of SNS Users' Use Motivations on Using SNS and Recognizing Characteristics of SNS Messages: Focused on the Comparison among 'Facebook', 'Twitter', 'Cyworld', and 'Me2day' (소셜네트워크서비스의 이용동기가 실제 이용과 메시지 특성 인식에 미치는 영향: '페이스북', '트위터', '싸이월드', '미투데이'의 비교를 중심으로)

  • According to the result of the online survey of SNS users, SNS users' use motivations consist of 'information', 'participation', and 'interaction'. SNS use motivations explain characteristics of an individual SNS very well. SNS users that aim to collect information use much more the SNS for communication like 'Twitter' and 'Me2day' than other SNS. SNS users that aim to participate in communication through SNS use much more 'Cyworld' that is joined by the most subscriber. And SNS users that aim to interact with other users use much more the SNS for network like 'Facebook' and 'Cyworld'. This tendency can also be seen in the use hours and access times of SNS by SNS use motivations. Meanwhile, the SNS Users that aim to collect information and interact with other users positively rate SNS messages. On the other hand, the SNS Users that aim to participate in communication through SNS negatively rate those. This confirms that SNS use motivations affect SNS users' recognition of SNS messages.

  • As information and information technology become more important in competitive corporate environments, the risk of information security breaches has increased accordingly. Although organizations establish security measures to manage information security risks, members of organizations do not comply with them well, and their information security behavior intention is unclear. Therefore, to understand the information security risk management intention of the members of organizations, the present study developed a research model using Protection Motivation Theory, Supervisory Authority Pressure, and Background factors. This study presents empirical research findings based on the analysis of survey data from 201 members of financial institutions. Perceived Severity, Self-efficacy, and Supervisory Authority Pressure had a positive effect on intention; however, Perceived Vulnerability and Response Efficacy did not affect intention. Security Avoidance Habit, which was considered a background factor, had a negative effect on all parameters, and did not have an effect on intention. Security Awareness Training, another background factor, had a positive effect on information security risk management intention and perceived vulnerability, self-efficacy, response efficacy, and supervisory authority pressure, and had no effect on perceived severity. This study used supervisory authority pressure and background factors in the field of information security, and provided a basis to use supervisory authority pressure in future studies on behavior of organizations and members of an organization. In addition, the use of various background factors presented the groundwork for the expansion of protection motivation theory. Furthermore, practitioners can use the study findings as a foundation for organization's security activities, and to improve regulations.

  • This study reviews 302 articles on health care organizations (HCOs) from 33 Korean Research Foundation registered journals. Articles are classified by criteria, focusing on study topics and methods. Key findings: (1) 'health care' journals are the major source of research on HCOs, (2) there has been a rapid increase in the amount of articles since the 1990s, (3) the majority of the studies deals with micro issues such as job attitude or motivation, (4) approximately 17% of the articles does not provide hypotheses based on theoretical assumptions, (5) few studies attempt to propose a new concept or theoretical framework, (6) most of the studies consider 'individual' as a level of analysis, (7) the use of cross-sectional data collected by survey questionnaire is general, and (8) individuals in a single occupation from multiple organizations are the main data source. Based on the findings, some directions for future research are proposed. Most of all, having more opportunities to introduce theories of organization and organizational behavior in health care need to be made in order to enhance understanding of HCOs. Next, sophisticated methodologies to guide empirical investigations should be developed to reduce deficiencies in research. Finally, efforts to encourage interdisciplinary approaches to the study on HCOs also need to be increased.

  • Professionalizing the teaching workforce has been recognized as one of the primary factors to reforming public education. In response to this challenge, it has been emphasized that an educational leader's role is to support professional learning communities more effectively. Although the academia of educational administration has increasingly drawn the significance of a teacher's professional development, understanding of an educational leader's role and contribution to this effort is quite limited and unclear. This article examines what factors and barriers affect teachers' participation in professional learning communities from the voices and experiences of teachers. The analysis found 1) identification, 2) autonomous will, 3) practical solution for factors to participation and 1) lack of theoretical foundation, 2) financial burden, 3) insufficient time for barriers to participation. In conclusion, the author suggests the strategies for an educational leader who has an important role in developing a teacher's professionalism: 1) create a strong network of university professors and other experts for career advice, 2) make an institutional effort to stimulate teachers' motivation to learn; 3) decrease the teachers' workload, 4) build a synthesized and consolidated system to establish communities.
