The study was carried out to investigate the influence of demographics and social media use on perceived academic stress of secondary school students in St. Thomas Aquinas College, Akure, Nigeria. This was achieved using five research questions and four null hypotheses. The population of the study consisted of 1,107 students at ISCED level 3, out of which 286 were selected based on the Israel (2003) model for determining sample size. The Ex-Post Facto (EPT) research design of the correlational type was employed to investigate the study while questionnaire was used for data elicitation. Out of the 286 copies distributed, 192 (67% response rate) were retrieved and analyzed using descriptive statistics (frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (correlation and multiple regression). The findings revealed that there is high frequency of social media use among secondary school students, majorly for meeting new friends and chatting. The perceived academic stress (PAS) of the students was found to be moderate. Of the three demographics considered, only class had significant influence on PAS. Use of social media did not have significantly influence on PAS of the students. When combined, demographics and social media use predicted PAS; and when considered relatively, of the independent variables, only class as an aspect of demographics predicted PAS. Therefore, the authors concluded that PAS of secondary school students is not directly influenced by demographics (except for class) and social media use. Based on the study's conclusion, recommendations were made.

Contemporary young men are consumption-oriented, pursue ideal male images displayed in commercials, and are highly interested in fashion, beauty, and appearance. This metrosexual tendency(which values appearance) is largely influenced by mass media. This study examines how men's media information utilization influences appearance awareness and metrosexual tendency as well as how these two variables influence cosmetics consumption and fashion product consumption behavior. The results are as follows. First, metrosexual tendency consists of four dimensions: fashion involvement, pursuit of individuality beyond sexuality, cognition of fashion taste, and preference of a high quality product. The sum of variance is 65.594%. Second, media information utilization influenced metrosexual tendency and metrosexual tendency influence cosmetic consumption, brand-sensitive consumption and commercial-sensitive consumption; however, it did not affect price-sensitive consumption. Third, media information utilization affected appearance awareness; however, appearance awareness did not affect metrosexual tendency. In conclusion, appearance management behavior for men in their 20s is clearly affected by media. This phenomenon is caused by the metrosexual desire to express identity through fashion. Men in their 20's do not take care of their looks because of the social perception of appearance (as related to showing off their competence or pursuit of social success); rather, they have a desire to express their individuality and personally enjoy grooming and maintaining their appearance. Therefore, we can expect increased beauty and fashion expenditures.

디지털 콘텐츠의 가치가 높아지고 있는 요즈음 소셜 미디어(Social Media)의 영향력은 더욱 커지고 있다. 10대, 20대를 중심으로 성장한 소셜 미디어는 빠르게 성장하여 현재 남녀노소를 막론하고 장소와 시간과 상관없이 즐겨 보고 있다. 이와 함께 최근 반려동물, 특히 고양이의 관심이 높아지고 있으며 이러한 관심은 1인 미디어에게도 영향을 미치고 있다. 본 연구는 국내에서 가장 인기가 많은 고양이 유튜브 채널 <크림히어로즈>와 <수리노을 SuriNoel>을 분석하였다. 두 고양이 채널의 누적조회수 상위 30개의 동영상, 실시간 스트리밍, 영상 속 고양이를 바탕으로 한 굿즈, 콘텐츠 소비자들의 댓글 분석을 통해 고양이를 1인 미디어로 보는 뷰니멀족들 또는 랜선집사들이 대리만족 하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이러한 대리만족을 통한 유튜브 채널의 확산은 반려동물로의 문화에 기여하고 나아가 유기동물과 동물학대에 대한 관심 및 반려동물에 대한 문화 확산의 기회를 마련하는 계기가 될 것이다.

Purpose: This study aimed to analyze the mass and social media contents and structures related to particulate matter before and after the policy enforcement of the comprehensive countermeasures for particulate matter, derive nursing implications, and provide a basis for designing health policies. Methods: After crawling online news articles and posts on social networking sites before and after policy enforcement with particulate matter as keywords, we conducted topic and semantic network analysis using TEXTOM, R, and UCINET 6. Results: In topic analysis, behavior tips was the common main topic in both media before and after the policy enforcement. After the policy enforcement, influence on health disappeared from the main topics due to increased reports about reduction measures and government in mass media, whereas influence on health appeared as the main topic in social media. However semantic network analysis confirmed that social media had much number of nodes and links and lower centrality than mass media, leaving substantial information that was not organically connected and unstructured. Conclusion: Understanding of particulate matter policy and implications influence health, as well as gaps in the needs and use of health information, should be integrated with leadership and supports in the nurses' care of vulnerable patients and public health promotion.

본 연구는 모바일 소셜 미디어 사용 강도와 사용 피로감에 미치는 영향 요인에 대하여 실증적으로 연구하였다. 연구의 프레임워크를 위한 이론으로는 계획된 행위 이론, 사적정보보호 이론, 몰입 이론, 절차적 성과 이론을 기반으로 하였다. 데이터 분석 결과 자기 효능감, 사용자 습관 및 몰입 경험이 모바일 소셜 미디어 사용 강도(intensity)에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 개인 정보 보호 문제는 모바일 소셜 미디어 사용 강도에 부정적인 영향을 미치기는 하나 사용행위에는 영향력이 미미하였다. 미디어 사용 강도는 미디어 피로감에 긍정적 영향을 미쳤다. 즉, 모바일 소셜 미디어 사용강도가 높아질 경우 피로감은 증가하였다. 절차적 성과 기대 변수는 미디어 사용 강도와 소셜 미디어 피로감 사이에 조절효과를 보이지 않았다. 연구 결과는 소셜 미디어 도구를 비즈니스 및 공공 서비스에 활용하고자 하는 소셜 미디어 관련 기업 및 조직에 시사점을 줄 것이다.

As social media has become a part of daily life, new types of online opinion leaders are emerging, and in turn, changes in traditional fashion leaders and leadership are expected. Considering such changes, this study attempted to reexamine fashion leader types and influence characteristics from the perspective of college students as fashion followers. Students were asked to write an essay identifying their fashion leader and how and why they were influenced by him or her. Sixty essays entitled "My Fashion Leader" were collected and content-analyzed. A total of 78 fashion leaders were identified and categorized into four types including celebrities, social media influencers, friends/family/acquaintances, and people seen on the street in order of frequency. Influence characteristics of the identified fashion leaders included superiority, role model, similarity, and familiarity. Similarity was observed across all types of fashion leaders, while superiority and familiarity were identified for celebrities and friends/family/acquaintances, respectively. The results imply that celebrities, mostly those from the TV, movie, and music industries, are still important as fashion leaders in society regardless of their communication style, while friends/family/acquaintances as opinion leaders within a consumer group are important to provide information, advice, and help. However, social media influencers between the two groups are expanding the influence.
