Based on total 234 samples obtained from empirical research, this study tested the reliability and fitness of the research model and verified a total of 5 hypotheses using the AMOS program. Using a structural equation model (SEM), hypothesized relationships in the model were tested simultaneously. The proposed model provided an adequate fit the data, $x^2=75.936$ (p<.001), df=41, CMIN/DF=1.852, GFI=.946, AGFI=.913, NFI=.914, TLI=.944, CFI=.958, RMSEA=.060. The model's fit, as indicated by these indexes, was deemed satisfactory, thus providing a good basis for testing the hypothesized paths. The SEM showed that the relational workplace harassment (${\beta}=.957$) had a positive significant influence on organizational silence, organizational silence (${\beta}=.934$) had a positive significant influence on counterproductive work behavior. Also, counterproductive work behavior (${\beta}=.815$) had a positive significant influence on turnover intention. The moderating effects on gender and job status did not show significant effect.

  • With the increasing use of social media, the occurrence of cyber crimes on social media has also increased. In this paper, we focus on online sexual harassment among various cyber crimes and discuss how social media users use social media to avoid online sexual harassment. Drawing on threat avoidance theory, the factors affecting avoidance motivation were identified. Avoidance motivation was measured based on the affordance of social media, and the influence of the degree of sexualization was tested to examine how environmental factors affect motivation behavior. The results indicated that the more users perceived sexualization on social media, the lower their motivation to avoid sexual harassment. Thus, it is important to create an atmosphere on social media where crime is minimized, and users are able to respond appropriately by continuously managing their accounts on these platforms.

  • In order to determine whether foals of move dominant mothers were harassed less by mares than those of lower-ranked mothers, harassment of foals was studied in a herd of Jeju ponies (Equus caballus) consisting of 73 mares, their 53 foals, and one stallion. Mares Harassed the foals on 71 occasions between March to September,1998. The frequency of harassment tended to decrease as foals aged, but the relationship was not significant (P = 0.079). Foals were harassed when sleeping (n = 14), grazing (n = 19), moving (n = 8), approaching a mare in the vicinity (n = 13), or play-fighting with the foal of the harassing mare (n = 17). Mares harassed foals of younger, more subordinate mares than those of older, more dominant mares (P < 0.001). We conclude that early social experience of foals is associated with the dominance rank of its mother.
