Information behavior played a significant role in minimizing the risks of the COVID-19 pandemic. When faced with such a situation, an individual needs information for decision-making and in order to determine the best course of action relating to their health. This study aims to explore information behavior during each phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in Indonesia, which is known for its close-knit collective culture. A sensemaking approach is used, which emphasizes the process individuals go through to understand their situation and give meaning to the information they are getting from their environment. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with 10 participants to obtain a description of their information behaviors during the pandemic. Data analysis was carried out using open, axial, and selective coding. We propose a sensemaking-based information behavior strategy framework for mitigating risk and reducing ongoing health crises. Changes in information behavior strategies, including search, prevention, and restriction of information exposure, were random at the beginning of the pandemic, but became more regular in later phases. This was influenced by the "knowledge gap fulfillment" and "use of local knowledge" among the participants throughout the pandemic. In conclusion, the participants developed a sensemaking process including an understanding of the pandemic situation and the risks that they faced. They used a number of information behavior strategies to prevent transmission, and their perception of the risks changed across the course of the pandemic, up til the situation began to be considered back to normal again in Indonesia.

본 연구는 코로나-19로 인한 신종감염병 대유행 상황에서 간호대학생의 신종감염병에 대한 인식과 윤리 인식, 윤리적 의사결정 수준을 파악하기 위한 서술적 조사연구이다. 연구대상자는 H읍과 Y시의 간호대학생 3, 4학년 194명이며 2020년 5월 1일부터 6월 20일까지 자료를 수집, SPSS 24.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석하였다. 연구결과 연구대상자의 신종감염병에 대한 인식은 보통수준이며 윤리 인식과 윤리적 의사결정은 높은 수준이었다. 본인이나 가족의 신종감염병 감염경험이 있는 대상자가 그렇지 않은 대상자보다 윤리 인식과 윤리적 의사결정 수준이 더 높았다. 신종감염병에 대한 인식은 신종감염병 관련 윤리 인식(r=.291, p<.001), 윤리적 의사결정(r=.143, p=.046)과 양의 상관이 있고, 감염병 관련 윤리 인식은 윤리적 의사결정과 양의 상관(r=.274, p<.001)이 있었다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 감염병 대유행 시 간호대학생들의 올바른 윤리적 의사결정을 돕기 위한 교육 프로그램 개발을 제안한다.

본 연구는 국내에서 유학생들의 현황에 대한 통계 결과를 공시하기 시작한 2004년부터 16년 간 중국인 유학생 관련 뉴스 데이터를 수집하였으며, 그 중 코로나19 확산이 심화되어 팬데믹 상황으로 정의되는 2020년의 뉴스데이터를 선별하여 LDA 분석을 통해 최적 토픽 11개를 도출하여 연간 주요 사건들과의 관계를 중심으로 탐색적 차원에서 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 2020년 중국인 유학생에 대한 뉴스는 코로나바이러스 상황에 대한 이슈에만 집중적으로 연결하여 보도하는 경향이 있었으며 감염 확산의 원인 관련어 등 부정적인 이슈와 연결되어 있음을 확인하였다. 국민들의 소통을 매개하는 언론에서 외국인 혐오 담론과 중국인 유학생 보도가 무관하지 않다는 점에서 팬데믹 상황 속 외국인에 대한 혐오가 팽배한 오늘날 국민 간 소통을 매개하는 언론이 중국인 유학생에 대한 보도 방향에 신중할 필요가 있음을 밝혔다.

Data were collected from November 2017 to April 2018 using a self-administrated questionnaire, and analyzed utilizing descriptive statistics. Results: Considering the awareness of pandemic infectious diseases, the nursing students expressed high concern about the possibility of future outbreaks of pandemic infectious diseases and seriousness of the situation. There were numerous negative views on the response and stockpiling of drugs by the government. Ethical awareness of pandemic infectious diseases was high, with demands for accurate information and proper protective equipment. Overall, ethical decision-making when responding to pandemic infectious diseases represented a high score. Also, higher awareness levels of pandemic infectious diseases would result in increased ethical and ethical decision-making. Conclusion: In conclusion, we propose the introduction of an ethical education program for medical personnel and nursing university students, to enable the handling of future pandemic outbreaks of new infectious diseases.

The purpose of the research is to examine whether government regulation on Covid 19 pandemic has had a significant impact in economic sectors, particularly on consumer behavior. Thus there are three hypotheses, 1) viral marketing has an effect on online trust during the Covid-19 Pandemic Era, 2) viral marketing has an effect on impulse buying during the Covid-19 Pandemic Era, and 3) Viral marketing has an effect on impulse buying in the Covid-19 Pandemic Era through online trust. To test the hypotheses, questionnaires were distributed to 150 respondents, however, only 110 were selected due to incomplete data. There are 3 variables, namely viral marketing, online trust, and impulse buying, where online trust is also a mediating variable. Once the assumption test is completed, the researcher employs path analysis to test the hypotheses. The results are 1) there is an effect of viral marketing on online trust in the Covid-19 Pandemic Era, 2) There is no effect of viral marketing on impulse buying in the Covid-19 Pandemic Era, and 3) Viral marketing has an effect on impulse buying in the Covid-19 Pandemic Era through online trust. This means online trust succeed in mediating viral marketing-impulse buying relationship. The findings emphasized that the credibility of online trust enforce consumers in making buying decisions.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the obligatory wearing of masks has led to increased consumer demand and the diversification of mask design. Accordingly, it is necessary to understand the inner meaning and characteristics of masks in the pandemic situation. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to analyze the characteristics of fashionable masks and their new cultural meaning under the COVID-19 pandemic. This research is based on literature review and empirical research. Drawing on an investigation of the historical evolution of masks and their transition under the pandemic (exhibiting differences in mask culture among countries and regions), this study analyzed 54 distinctive fashion masks designed by fashion brands and influencers that appeared from January 2020 to January 2021. The characteristics of fashion masks identified under the influence of the pandemic are as follows: Message delivery on political issues and human rights; psychological defense and expression of individuality; and conspicuous display via luxurious materials and luxury brand logos; moreover, the design of the mask uses the same material, color, pattern, decoration, and other methods as clothing to achieve the overall style.

To investigate deep into the behavioral consequences of such a pandemic situation, in-depth interviews were conducted in several companies in Saudi Arabia. This study was conducted by extending the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and the theory of reasoned action (TRA) to explore and assess the various factors that determine the continuous adoption intention of work-from-home by the Saudis. The finding shows that the employees' positive attitude, subjective norms, and self-efficacy affect the employees' intention to adopt work from home. The continuous adoption of work from home has been affected by employees' relevant intention and controllability.
