Background and objective: This study was conducted to examine the effects of the theme-based garden book (photo book) making integration program on social skills and self-determination of college students with developmental disabilities. Methods: We analyzed the changes in social skills and self-determination of college students with developmental disabilities. The first step was defining the theme-based garden book (photo book) making integration program, which was done by focus group interviews (FGI) comprised of specialists in the industry and academia. The second step was carrying out 8 sessions of the program. The third step was examining the effects of the program on social skills and self-determination of college students with developmental disabilities. The participants of this study were 36 college students with developmental disabilities attending N University, and 17 students were in the experiment group and the other 19 in the control group. Results: The control group showed no statistically significant changes in the three sub-domains of social skills, while the experimental group showed statistically significant differences across all three sub-domains, such as cooperation(P < .05), assertion(P < .05), and self-control(P < .05). The experimental group, that participated in the program showed statistically significant differences across all four sub-domains of self-determination skills, such as behavior (P < .05), cognition(P < .05), school support(P < .05) and home support(P < .05). This proved that the theme-based garden book (photo book) making program contributed to bringing positive effects to self-determination and social skills. Conclusion: These results suggest that the theme-based garden book (photo book) making integration program could improve self-determination and social skills of college students with developmental disabilities. These positive changes are related to the high level of interest in theme-based garden design programs among college students with developmental disabilities, and thus these programs can be used effectively to improve social adjustment.

스마트폰과 웨어러블 기기의 발달로 다양한 라이프로깅 서비스와 클라우드 서비스가 제공되고 있다. 소셜 네트워크 서비스는 인터넷상에서 개인의 일상을 공유해 친구들에게 근황을 알리고 새로운 인간관계를 형성하도록 한다. 라이프로깅 관련 연구들이 활발하게 이뤄지고 있지만 소셜 네트워크 서비스 시대의 라이프로깅은 단순한 기억의 확장을 넘어 사회적 관계를 제시해야 한다. 또한 사회적 이슈인 개인정보 보호를 위해 익명성이 보장되어야 한다. 본 연구는 일상생활에서 얻어지는 라이프로깅 데이터를 이용해 소셜 네트워크 그룹을 생성하는 시스템을 제안한다. 소셜 네트워크 그룹은 비슷한 감성 성향의 사람들을 범주화함으로써 사회적 관계를 제공한다. 이때, 익명성 보장을 위해 타인을 식별할 수 없도록 한다. 소셜 그룹의 대표 감성과 비슷한 소셜 그룹들을 범주화해서 확장된 소셜 네트워크 그룹을 만들 수 있다. 소셜 그룹간의 네트워크로 확장되면 대표 감성과 행동 양식을 분석해 대중의 패턴과 트렌드를 추론할 수 있는 기초데이터를 제공할 수 있다.

In ubiquitous computing, shared environments are required to adapt to people intelligently. Based on information about user preferences, the shared environments should be adjusted so that all users in a group are satisfied as possible. Although many group recommender systems have been proposed to obtain this purpose, they only consider average and misery. However, a broad range of philosophical approaches suggest that high inequality reduces social agreeability, and consequently causes users' dissatisfactions. In this paper, we propose social welfare functions, which consider inequalities in users' preferences, as alternative aggregation functions to achieve a social agreeability. Using an example in a previous work[7], we demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed welfare functions as socially agreeable aggregate functions in group recommender systems.

The purpose of this study was to present a developmental direction of the early childhood social education in kindergarten by investigating the mother's perceptions using the focus group interview. Mothers who have 4~5 year old children were selected for 3 focus group interviews. The following results were obtained: 1) The mothers recognized early childhood social education as an essential step before entering elementary school. 2) The mothers were found to have recognized that the cultivation of the various social situations of the children in kindergarten would be a very important task of the kindergarten, because kindergarten is a place for children to be introduced to social experiences for the first time in their lives. 3) Most of the mothers have the perception that early childhood social education showed positive effects on the development of their children. This perception was based on the evaluation of the social educational effect of kindergarten compared to that of elementary school.

This study examines the roles of user resistance and social influences on the acceptance and continuous usage of smartphones at different stages of adoption. The respondents were classified into three groups according to their innovation adoption stage : non-user group, the potential user group and the trial user group. Theories relevant to user resistance, social influences including normative social influences and informational social influences, as well as user adoption and continuance behavior were reviewed and integrated into our research model. In order to verify the proposed structured equation model, we conducted an online survey by targeting mobile phone users and collected data to be analyzed through a partial least squares (PLS) test. This study tested whether there exists differences in the effects of user resistance and different types of social influence on user's adoption or continuance intetion among these three groups. The results showed that user resistance exists in all adopter groups and that it has significant negative influences on intention to use a smartphone. The findings also revealed that user resistance can be enhanced or resolved by two types of social influence; informational social influence resolves user resistance regardless of the adopter category, while normative social influence enhances the user resistance of potential users. Furthermore, the findings show that social influence regardless of the type positively affects user intention. Several theoretic and practical implications pertaining to the results are discussed.

본 연구는 온라인 대학의 성인 학습자들이 지각한 교수자에 대한 사회적 실재감이 교수자의 사회적 촉진활동에 따라 어떻게 달라지며, 이것이 궁극적으로 학습만족도에 어떤 영향을 미치는지, 그리고 이와 관련된 학습자 변인은 무엇인지를 분석하는 데 목적이 있다. 이를 위하여 2014학년도 2학기 국내 한 온라인대학 재학생 119명으로부터 수집된 인구학적 정보, 상호작용, 교수자에 대한 사회적 실재감 및 과목 전반에 대한 사회적 실재감, 학업만족도에 대한 자료를 분석에 활용하였다. 연구목적에 따른 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 교수자에 대한 사회적 실재감은 연령이 높은 집단에서, 자유게시판 활동에 참여한 집단에서 높았다. 둘째, 교수자의 사회적 촉진활동은 교수자에 대한 사회적 실재감을 높이는 데 기여했으나, 자유게시판 활동에 참여한 학습자들은 교수자의 개입이 없이도 교수자에 대한 사회적 실재감이 높았다. 셋째, 교수자의 사회적 촉진활동은 교수자에 대한 사회적 실재감과 유의미한 상관성을 보였으나 학습만족도에 대한 영향력은 교수자에 대한 사회적 실재감과 과목 전반에 대한 사회적 실재감에서만 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 학습만족도를 높이기 위해서는 교수자의 사회적 촉진활동이 사회적 상호작용에 소극적인 학습자들에게 보다 체계적으로 제공되어야 한다는 점이 제안되었다.
