The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of peer mentoring activity in elementary school. For this study, an experimental group was conducted for peer mentoring activity in science class. The mentoring team was organized by mento-mentee team according to the scores of science process skill and achievement. The objects of this study were the sixth grade of both an experimental group (28 students) and a control group (27 students) located in Incheon. The results of this study were as follows. First, the experimental group was shown more significant effect for improvement of science process skills than the control group (p<.05). As the result of analysis by groups, both of mento and mentee showed significant effect for improvement of science process skills. Second, the peer mentoring activity showed more significant effect for improvement of achievement (p<.05). As the result of analysis by groups, mentee showed significant effect for improvement achievement. But mento group didn't show significant effect. Third, the peer mentoring activity showed the effect for positive changes of scientific attitude. If matching the mentoring object effectively and conducting the classes applying peer mentoring activity based on the results of this study, it's expected to draw student' improvement of science academic, achievement and positive changes of scientific attitude.

This study examined the relationships between teacher variables that improve the efficacy of the play teaching of infants and toddlers following a play-oriented curriculum. The participants were 287 infant teachers. The results were as follows. First, the independent variables had a significant effect on the efficacy of play teaching, teacher-infant interaction, and classroom environment. Second, the mediating effects of teacher-infant interaction and classroom environment on the effect of independent variables on the efficacy of play teaching were as follows. The interaction mediating effect between professionalism and play belief was significant, but teaching creativity was found to be significant. In the mediating effect of the classroom environment, expertise, play belief, and teaching creativity were found to be significant. Third, both teacher-infant interaction and the multimedia effect of the classroom environment were statistically significant in mediating the effect of independent variables on the efficacy of play teaching.

The Purpose of this study is to find out the effect of clothing style and color, tone combination on impressions formation. The experimental materials developed for this study are a set of stimuli and response scale(The 7-point semantic). The stimuli are 36pictures manipulated with clothing style, color and tone variation by computer drawing. The subjects are 216 female undergraduate students and 216 female of middle age(40~50) in Chin-ji city. The resulte of this study are as follows : Impression factor of the stimulus was consisted of the 5 different demensions(attractiveness, elegance, activity, revealation, tenderness). Among there, attractiveness and elegance factors proved to be more important. In the attractiveness and tenderness, clothing style, color, tone combinations and perceiver's age had the significant effect. In the elegance and revealation, color and perceiver's age had the significant effect but in the activity, only color did not have the significant effect. Significant interaction effects of clothing style and color, style and tone combination, and color and perceiver's age on attractiveness and revealation were found. Interaction effect of color and tone combination was significant on the elegance and revealation, and that of color and perceiver's age was significant on tenderness.

This study comprehensively investigates whether there is an impact of risk, size, profitability, earnings per share, dividend yield, and book-to-market equity on the stock prices of Jordanian banks listed on the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) for the period 2006-2018. To mitigate endogeneity concerns and to control for within-bank dynamics, panel data fixed effects estimations are used. This study shows that size (SIZE), profitability (ROA), dividend yield (DY) and book-to-market equity (BE/ME) ratios are statistically significant determinants of stock prices. The risk (RISK) factor measured by volatility of ROA has a positive and significant effect on the stock prices, while earnings per share has minimum influence on the stock prices. The results show that ROA has a significant and positive effect and provides the largest effect among all variables used in this study, while the RISK factor has a positive and significant effect. In contrast, SIZE, DY, and BE/ME have a significant negative effect on stock prices. The paper presented new evidence showing that ROA is a better determinant of stock prices in Jordanian banks, and RISK significantly affects stock prices. The researcher recommends using a factor of profitability represented by ROA which has a significant positive effect on the stock prices in Jordanian banks and applying the ROA variable to other sectors.

Purpose Previous research on customer engagement in SNS marketing has mainly addressed the conceptualization of type of word-of-mouth messages. However, there is a lack of researches about the effect of the brand-page characteristics on the type of word-of-mouth messages. Therefore, this study examined the effect of brand-page characteristics in terms of the type of word-of-mouth messages as the main objective and the effect of the type of word-of-mouth messages in terms of the brand loyalty as the secondary objective in the context of Facebook. Design/methodology/approach The empirical research was based on a poll done through 400 research candidates in the Facebook and the final 342 responses were collected and used in statistical data analysis. The adaptability, trust, and validity to measurement model were verified and the structural relationship in the research model was analyzed through these 342 responses. The collected data verified hypotheses established using the SPSS statistical package and structural equation model using AMOS. Findings The results showed that the BP-information provision had a non-significant effect on the factual word-of-mouth message and a significant effect on the evaluative word-of-mouth message. The BP-reliability had a significant effect on the factual word-of-mouth message and the evaluative word-of-mouth message. The BP-entertainment had a significant effect on the factual word-of-mouth message and the evaluative word-of-mouth effect. The BP-interaction had a non-significant effect on the factual word-of-mouth message and the evaluative word-of-mouth message. Finally, the factual word-of-mouth message and the evaluative word-of-mouth message had a significant effect on the brand loyalty.

To explore the impact of restaurant service quality for foreigners in South Korea on customer satisfaction, customer trust, and loyalty from three dimensions: quality of physical environment, food quality, and service quality and the influence of perceived price on satisfaction and loyalty, a survey was conducted by collecting 202 valid questionnaires and Amos 23 was used to examine the relationships between variables. The results show that the quality of physical environment, food quality, and service quality have significant positive effects on customer trust, but only food quality has a significant effect on customer loyalty and all three have no significant effects on customer satisfaction. In addition, customer trust has a significant positive effect on customer satisfaction and customer loyalty, but the effect of customer satisfaction on loyalty has not been verified in this study. At the same time, perceived price has a significant positive effect on customer satisfaction, but no significant effect on customer loyalty. Then the study examined the moderating effect of gender by using the SEM multi-group analysis method, founding that there are no significant differences between male and female on the impact of the three dimensions of restaurant service quality on customer satisfaction, and no significant differences between male and female on the impact of perceived price on customer satisfaction and customer satisfaction on loyalty, meaning that gender's moderating effects are not valid. These conclusions of this study are useful for restaurant operators to improve the quality of the physical environment, food quality and service quality, effectively improve customer trust, and thus customer satisfaction and loyalty.
