  • The study identifies the importance of informational and legislative support in ensuring gender equality. It determines the relevance of gender inequality, the main problem, which is confirmed by research and statistical information. The study aims to determine the methods of collecting information and legal regulation of gender issues and the possibility of solving them by public authorities. The main methods of gathering information are census surveys, questionnaires, surveys on public service websites, work with local communities, surveys in nursing homes and orphanages, special survey programs, and election polls. The paper considers the legal regulation of gender inequalities at the international, state, local and organizational levels. According to the analysis of the problem of gender inequality, it is established that the problem is practically eliminated in many developed countries, while countries with low incomes face gender inequality constantly.

  • Because of the sex-gender differences that are shown in a diversity of physiological and psychological factors, it can be speculated that the clinical presentation of symptoms as well as treatment strategies in women and men with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) may differ. Studies have revealed that IBS is more common in women than men. As for the IBS subtype, IBS with constipation is significantly more prevalent among women than men. Sex hormones and gender differences may play important roles in the pathophysiology of IBS. However, its pathophysiologic mechanisms still remain largely unknown, and therapeutic implications are limited. Moreover, women IBS patients have been reported to feel more fatigue, depression, anxiety, and lower quality of life than men IBS patients. Furthermore, there has been evidence of differences in the appropriate treatment efficacy to IBS in men and women, although relatively few men are enrolled in most relevant clinical trials. A more sex-gender-oriented approach in the medical care setting could improve understanding of heterogeneous patients suffering from IBS. An individualized and multicomponent approach including sex and gender issues might help improve the treatment of IBS.

  • The sex/gender of gastroenterologists impact patients' satisfaction, compliance, and clinical outcomes. For instance, female gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopist-patient gender concordance improves health-related outcomes. This finding suggests that it is important to increase the number of female GI endoscopists. While the number of women in the field of gastroenterology is increasing in the United States and Korea by over 28.3%, it is not enough to account for the gender preferences of female patients. GI endoscopists are at a high risk of endoscopy-related injuries. However, there is a different distribution of muscle and fat; male endoscopists are more affected in their back, while females are more affected in the upper extremities. Women are more susceptible to endoscopy-related injuries than men. There is a correlation between the number of colonoscopies performed and musculoskeletal pain. Job satisfaction is lower in young female gastroenterologists (30' and 40') than in the opposite gender and other ages. Thus, it is important to address these issues in the development of GI endoscopy.

  • The purpose of this study is to try finding the research possibilities of computer technology in art education and understand why computer technology has such a great impact on our contemporary education. The methodology of this study is based on the analysis of literature review. I have tried to find the importance articles in the journals of art education such as Studies in Art Education and Art Education published from the National Art Education Association, one of the most well-known organizations in the field of art education. To draw the purpose of this study, I found articles and categorized the information using key words such as aesthetic, feminist, gender issues, and interactivity. After analyzing, I have discussed about the research possibilities and important issues of computer technology in art education and then categorized the information found in each article into four different subheadings: 1) the visual effects of computer graphics in art education, 2) gender issues based on the computer technology, 3) interactive multimedia and social interactions among students, 4) research possibilities with computer technologies in art education. The findings are as follow. Firstly, there were many research possibilities of computer technologies in art education such as ways of criticizing the contemporary art world. Secondly, I found that computer technology has a great impact on art education because students are more eager to engage with computer technologies-based media activities and very familiar with new media either at home and school. Therefore, we, as educators, must address how the student will be systematically engaged with computer technologies in their educational environment and should determine what knowledge and skills prospective teachers bring to our teacher education programs and how and where they acquired this knowledge.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the psychological variables related to sexual issues and sexual violence experiences by gender in university students. Methods: A self-report survey collected responses from 469 university students in three regions. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics, using descriptive statistics, independent t-test, ${\chi}^2$-test, and Pearson correlation coefficients. Results: While male students' scores on sexual assertiveness and sexual assault recognition were lower than female students', their scores on gender role stereotype and sexual violence permissiveness were higher. Female students' sexual violence victims were higher than male students', however, their scores on sexual violence perpetrations were lower than male students'. Sexual violence victims and perpetrations experiences were significantly related to sexual assault recognition and sexual violence permissiveness in male and female students. There were significant relationships between sexual violence perpetrations experiences and gender role stereotypes in male students, while there were significant relationships between sexual violence victims and inflictions experiences and sexual assertiveness in female students. Conclusion: The present study suggests that differentiated programs for preventing or arbitrating sexual violence should be developed and applied by gender because there were differences between male and female students in the level of psychological variables related to sexual issues and sexual violence experiences.

  • 본 논문의 목적은 K대학 학생들의 성별에 따른 젠더 관련 이슈에 대한 인식 차이를 살펴보고 대학 교육 체계 내에서의 대응 방안을 제안하는 것이다. 연구 결과 첫째, 남성은 여성에 대한 구조적 차별은 존재하지 않고 역으로 남성이 차별 받고 있다고 생각하는 반면, 여성의 경우 이와는 반대되는 인식을 보이고 있다. 둘째, 여성의 노력 정도 및 소득이 낮은 이유, 취업 후 업무능력등에 대해서도 남녀는 유의미한 인식 차이를 나타낸다. 셋째, 남성들의 경우 여성에 비해 페미니즘에 대해 비우호적인 태도를 보이고 있다. 넷째, 남성들이 여성 할당제와 페미니즘에 대해 적대적 태도를 보이는 이유로는 남성에게 부과되는 전통적인 성 역할 모델의 영향과 구조적 불평등에 대한 남녀의 관점 차이를 들 수 있다. 이와 같은 현실 인식의 남녀 간 격차를 줄이기 위해서는 헤게모니적 남성성에 대한 고찰, 정확한 정보를 바탕으로 한 쟁점 교육, 실수 친화적 공간 마련을 통한 쟁점의 공론화, 그리고 시민 교육의 관점에서 대학 차원의 대응이 필요하다는 점을 제안하였다.

  • 애니메이션은 사회의 관념을 반영하는 미디어이며, 단순히 정보를 전달할 뿐 아니라 새로운 담론의 장을 형성하기도 한다. 본 논문은 지브리 애니메이션 <가구야 공주 이야기>의 주인공과 그 주변 인물, 서사적 특징, 작품 배경에 내재한 젠더 담론에 대한 분석을 통해 미디어에 반영된 사회 문제와 젠더 담론을 고찰하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 젠더 수행과 관련한 사회 문제를 파악하고, 선행 연구를 분석하여 작품에 내재한 젠더 담론과의 연결성을 도출하도록 한다. 할아범은 딸의 행복을 강요하는 아버지의 표상이며, 할멈은 그런 남편을 말리지 못하는 어머니를 보여준다. 또한, 가구야 공주의 첫사랑이나 재력과 신분이 없다는 이유로 결혼하지 못하는 원작과 다르게 추가된 스테마루라는 캐릭터를 통해 젠더 수행의 문제점이 나타났다. 현대 여성처럼 주체적이고 능동적인 면모를 보이던 가구야 공주는 사회와 주변 인물들로부터 견디기 힘든 억압과 강요로 인해 결국 달로 도피하는데, 이는 현대 사회에서 공공연히 일어나는 젠더 수행의 다양한 문제점을 반영한다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 젠더 수행 문제가 개인의 노력으로 해결할 수 있는 문제가 아닌 사회적 관념의 변화가 필요하다는 전제하에 다양한 콘텐츠에서 나타나는 젠더 담론에 대한 꾸준한 객관적 고찰의 필요성을 강조하고 있다.

  • This study attempts to identify gender and age discrimination by individual lenders in P2P lending markets by analyzing empirical transaction data from multiple platforms including Moneyauction, Popfunding, and 8percent. To do this, the study investigates the effects and importance of a borrower's gender and age on individual lenders' preferences and a borrower's actual repayment performance using multiple linear regression and relative weight analyses. As a result, no gender discrimination is found in the three Korean P2P lending markets, and such indiscrimination is rational, on the grounds that the borrower's gender does not have a statistically significant impact on the lenders' preferences as well as his/her actual repayment performance, and its relative importance is minimal. While, there marginally exists age discrimination against a borrower in the markets, and such ageism is likely to be irrational, on the grounds that the borrower's age has a partly significant and minimally important impact on the lenders' preferences, but has no significant and important impact on his/her repayment performance. For the first time, these findings help to clarify gender and age discrimination issues in the P2P lending market by identifying the rationality of individual lenders' preferences to the borrower's gender and age in the Korea.
