This study investigates the complex mechanism of work-family conflict affecting counterproductive behavior of employees based on resource conservation theory and 417 valid samples by using polynomial regression and response surface analysis. Counterproductive work behavior refers to any intentional behavior of an individual that has potential harm to the legitimate interests of the organization or its stakeholders. Results show that first, work-to-family conflict (WFC) and family-to-work conflict (FWC) had four matching types. Compared with "high WFC-low FWC," "low WFC-high FWC" and "low WFC-low FWC" matching conditions, the employee self-control resource depletion and counterproductive work behavior (CWB) are at their highest under "high WFC-high FWC" congruence matching condition. Second, the joint effect of WFC and FWC has a U-shaped relationship with counterproductive behavior. Compared with the "high WFC-low FWC" match state, the level of CWB in the "low WFC-high FWC" match state is higher. Third, the depletion of self-control resources played a mediating role in the effect of WFC on counterproductive behavior. Fourth, emotional intelligence moderated the relationship between the congruence of WFC and FWC and self-control resource depletion. Emotional intelligence was higher, and the positive relationship between the congruence of WFC and FWC and self-control resource depletion was weaker.

Excellent employees are those who take on extra responsibilities and commitments at work. Hence, employees must pay attention to out-of-role activities that can help the company perform better. When a person takes on more responsibilities than he can handle, they will have to deal with the issue of work-family balance. This paper examines how the consistency of WFC affects employees' organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) using the Resource Conservation Theory. This study uses empirical research methodologies to assess 417 employees as a sample. (1) When the matches of work-to-family conflict (WFC) and family-to-work conflict (FWC) are consistent, the employee self-control resource depletion level is lower, and OCB is higher in the "high-high" consistency matching state. (2) The "low-high" match had a higher OCB than the "high-low" match when the WFC and FWC matches were inconsistent. (3) In the process of WFC affecting OCB, the depletion of self-control resources acts as a mediating factor. (4) Emotional intelligence plays a moderating role in the whole model. The lower the emotional intelligence was, the stronger the positive relationship between the consistency of WFC, FWC, and self-control resource depletion was.

Purpose - Prior research has suggested that consumers typically prefer to have a larger number of options. However, preference of assortment size may depend on how depleted resources in consumers' mind are. Reduced capacity for self-regulation by resource depletion makes people rely on more intuitive and less effortful decision processing. When they are mentally depleted, people are likely to focus on the choice difficulty from large assortment, which leads to preference for the small assortment when they make a decision. It could be an important question potentially how being in a depleted mode through effortful self-regulation will influence on the evaluation of assortment size. To answer this questioner, we hypothesized that being engaged in self-regulation, as compared with not being engaged in self-regulation, will influence on the evaluation of product assortment size such as attractiveness, difficulty of choice, and anticipated regret. Research design, data, and methodology - In this study, we first manipulated self-regulatory resource availability using a self-regulation task (i.e., instructing participants to solve Sudoku puzzle vs. to solve diagram cube by filling any diagrams that they prefer into cube instead of number) and asked to indicate the difficulty of the tasks available to them ("How much difficulty did you feel when you complete the task?") Next, participants were asked to imagine that they were planning to buy a laptop at one of the two stores (small assortment: 6 options vs. large assortment: 30 options), both offering good quality of products. After reading the product descriptions, participants were instructed to consider all the information and choose a store that they would like to shop. Finally we measured the choice difficulty, evaluation of product assortments, and anticipated regret on a 7-point scale. We conducted two-way ANOVA in testing the main hypothesis that depleted consumers will show poorer subsequent self-control than non-depleted consumers when they make a decision in large assortment. Results - Compared with non-depleted participants, depleted participants showed the bigger difference from the degree of choice difficulty and product attractiveness between large and small assortments, but the result revealed only a significant interaction effect of resource depletion and assortment size on choice difficulty. Also depleted participants showed the smaller difference from the degree of anticipated regret between large and small assortments than non-depleted participants. Conclusion - Depleted individuals by a prior task are relatively effortless and intuitive form of choosing products so that they try to avoid making effortful trade-offs among choice difficulty such as large assortment, compare with non-depleted individuals. However, for anticipated regret, non-depleted individuals in small assortment anticipate more regret by excluding or at least restricting the possibility of buying attractive items or another kind of potential items than depleted individuals, regardless less choice difficulty in small option. To sum up, it is important to note that individuals are influenced by self-regulatory resources and their self-regulatory conditions contribute to the overall positive or negative impact of product assortment on choice.

본 연구는 개인이 구체적인 목표를 달성해 가는 과정에서 자기효능감이 미치는 영향을 알아보고, 나아가 목표를 달성해 나가는 과정에서 개인이 자아를 통제하는 힘인 자아조절자원이 어떠한 역할을 하는지 알아보고자 하였다. 구체적으로 자기효능감과 목표설정이론 간의 관계를 자아조절자원을 조건으로 구분하여 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해 대학생들을 대상으로 자아조절자원의 고갈 및 비고갈 집단을 조작하여, 자기효능감과 목표설정에 따른 성과를 측정하였다. 분석 결과, 자기효능감과 성과에 대한 목표설정의 매개효과가 확인되었으며, 자기효능감이 높을수록 자아조절자원이 강화되는 것을 일부 확인하였다. 따라서 자기효능감의 증대는 자아조절자원의 강화를 통해 꾸준히 높은 성과를 올릴 수 있는 토대가 된다는 사실을 확인할 수 있다. 이를 통해 기업에서는 종업원의 장기적인 고성과를 원하는 경우에 참고할만한 가이드라인을 제공할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

사람들이 돈을 지불하지 않고 무료로 얻을 수 있는 공짜제품을 과다하게 선호하는 현상을 '공짜효과'라 한다. 기존 연구들에 의하면 공짜제품에 주어지는 특별한 가치 때문에 이와 같은 효과가 발생한다. 본 연구는 공짜효과가 항상 나타나는 것이 아니라 심리적 변수에 의하여 조절될 수 있다는 것을 보이기 위하여 자아조절자원과 해석수준의 조절효과를 살펴보았다. 자아조절자원이 고갈되면 통제의 힘이 약해져서 가격에 대한 민감도가 감소할 뿐만 아니라 직관적이고 노력을 별로 기울이지 않는 정보처리과정을 통해 의사결정을 수행한다. 또한, 주어진 정보를 어떤 해석수준에서 처리하는가에 따라 선택이 달라진다. 고차원 해석수준에서 중심기능을 바탕으로 대안의 바람직성에 따라서 선택하는 반면, 저차원 해석수준에서 부가기능을 바탕으로 대안의 실행가능성에 초점을 두어 선택한다. 이와 같은 특성이 공짜효과의 크기에 미치는 영향을 살펴보는 것이 본 연구의 가장 중요한 목적이다. 자아조절자원과 해석수준에 의해서 공짜효과의 크기가 조절될 수 있다는 사실을 검증하기 위해 2개의 실험설계를 채용하였다. 두 실험 모두에서 기존연구에서 사용한 실험재(키세스와 페레로로쉐 초콜릿)를 이용했다. 실험 1은 자아조절자원 고갈 여부가 공짜효과에 미치는 영향을 검증했다. 자아조절자원 고갈과 비고갈 집단으로 나누어 공짜대안이 있는 선택과업과 그렇지 않은 과업에 할당했다. 자아조절자원이 고갈되지 않은 집단에서 공짜효과가 확실하지만, 자아조절자원이 고갈된 집단에서 공짜효과가 약해진다는 것을 밝혔다. 실험 2는 해석수준이 공짜효과에 미치는 영향을 검증했다. 실험 2는 '왜(why)'와 '어떻게(how)'를 이용해 해석수준을 조작했으며, 실험 1과 유사하게 공짜대안이 존재하는 의사결정과업과 존재하지 않는 과업에 할당한 뒤 공짜대안 선택에 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. 고차원 해석수준의 집단은 저차원 해석수준의 집단에 비하여 공짜제품 선택비율이 낮았다.

OSI 7계층 DDoS 공격 기법중 하나인 HTTP POST DDoS 공격은 서버의 자원을 고갈시켜 정상적인 서비스를 방해하는 서비스 거부 공격 기법이다. 이 공격은 적은 양의 공격 트래픽만으로도 효과적인 공격이 가능하며 정상적인 TCP 연결을 이용하고 있어 정상적인 사용자 트래픽과 공격 트래픽을 구분하는 것이 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 HTTP POST DDoS 공격에 대한 대응 방안으로 비정상 HTTP POST 트래픽 탐지 알고리즘과 HTTP POST 페이지별 Content-Length 제한기법을 제안한다. 제안한 방안은 HTTP POST 공격도구인 r-u-dead-yet과 자체 개발한 공격 도구를 이용하여 HTTP POST DDoS 공격을 오탐 없이 탐지 대응하였음을 보여주었다.
