Microblog is emerging as a new communication service because of its usefulness and real-time accessability. Recently, microblog services, such as twitter and me2day in Korea, are getting a great attention. Continuous use intention is critical to sustain the service. However, most recent studies are based on Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) and Expectation Confirmation Model(ECM). These models are only focused on individual factors and overlook social influence factors. Social influence has been indicated as a critical factor of technology adoption and diffusion in social context(Davis, 1989; Fulk et al., 1987). In this study, we explore factors related to social influence which effect on continuous use intention for 'me2day' that is one of the most famous microblog in Korea. The purpose of this study is to understand continuous use intention and examine the relationship among social influence factors, social presence, and continuous use intention. To understand the phenomenon of continuous use intention in microblog service, this study employed social influence theory and expanded it by adding personal network exposure and group norm as additional social influence factors. The results show that social identity, group norms, and social presence positively influences continuous use intention. Contrary to our expectation, personal network exposure does not influence on continuous use intention. Academically, this research can contribute to microblog research field through elucidating the relationship among social influence factors, social presence, and continuous use intention. Although there is not enough research which is considered social influence factors as major explanation for continuous use intention, this study can give novel point of view to understand continuous use intention of microblog. Practically, service providers could consider ways to encourage users to continually use microblog service by reinforcing social influence factors and social presence.

This research paper is focused on a theoretical study of the influences the structural factors and social capital within an industrial cluster have on innovative performance, and expanding the understanding of the influence through positive analyses based on public surveys. The study adopts a concept of social capital that can formulate a social relationship, and maintains that the social capital either works as a mediator for structural factors or independently exerts strong influences on innovative performance. In the research, the social capital is divided into two categories, bonding social capital and bridging social capital, and their influences are analyzed separately. The result of the analyses shows that unlike the traditional perception based on Korea's unique culture, the influence of bridging social capital is stronger than that of bonding social capital. It is also found that the structural factors exert influence by themselves on the contrary the previous study, simultaneously they still have influence upon innovative performance through bridging social capital calculated via the elements such as secondary relationships, network activity support and organizational openness.

Purpose: This study was conducted to examine the personal and social environmental factors affecting leisure time physical activity (LTPA) among adults living in rural communities. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted with a convenience sample of 282 adults living in three rural towns of Chungcheongbuk province. Leisure time physical activity was assessed through the Korean version of the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ), and social influence and social cohesion of social environment were assessed using reliable and validated measures. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore personal and social environmental factors associated with LTPA. Results: The overall prevalence of leisure-time physical activity (LTPA) was 40.0%. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that LTPA participation was associated with gender (OR=2.60, 95% CI=1.47-4.58), healthy eating (OR=1.15, 95% CI=1.01-1.31), unhealthy eating (OR=0.70, 95% CI=0.53-0.93) and social influence for physical activity (OR=1.11, 95% CI=1.03-1.20). However, social cohesion was not correlated with engaging in LTPA. Conclusion: Both personal and social environmental factors are associated with LPTA among rural adults living in Eup-Myen regions. Interventions to promote LTPA would likely benefit from considering healthy dietary intake and social influence for physical activity.

Background: This study analyzed predictors of regular mammography performance in Korea. In addition, we determined factors affecting regular mammography performance in life-transition aged women by applying an attitude, social influence, and self-efficacy (ASE) model. Materials and Methods: Data were collected from women aged over 40 years residing in province J in Korea. The 178 enrolled subjects provided informed voluntary consent prior to completing a structural questionnaire. Results: The overall regular mammography performance rate of the subjects was 41.6%. Older age, city residency, high income and part-time job were associated with a high regular mammography performance. Among women who had undergone more breast self-examinations (BSE) or more doctors' physical examinations (PE), there were higher regular mammography performance rates. All three ASE model factors were significantly associated with regular mammography performance. Women with a high level of positive ASE values had a significantly high regular mammography performance rate. Within the ASE model, self-efficacy and social influence were particularly important. Logistic regression analysis explained 34.7% of regular mammography performance and PE experience (${\beta}=4.645$, p=.003), part-time job (${\beta}=4.010$, p=.050), self-efficacy (${\beta}=1.820$, p=.026) and social influence (${\beta}=1.509$, p=.038) were significant factors. Conclusions: Promotional strategies that could improve self-efficacy, reinforce social influence and reduce geographical, time and financial barriers are needed to increase the regular mammography performance rate in life-transition aged.

Purpose The purpose of the present study is to analyze the factors influencing the intention to use direct bank continuously from the perspective of service rather than technology. Hygiene factors including economic benefits, privacy, and unverified risks, and convenience of service as a motivator were considered as user's satisfaction. A research model integrating the relationships among user's satisfaction, its determinants, social influence, and continuous intention to use direct banks was proposed. Design/methodology/approach Structural equation modelling for validating the research model was employed. 253 valid data were collected from users of direct bank service in South Korea and China, and used to test six hypotheses. Findings User's satisfaction and social influence were determinants of continuous use intention of direct bank. Convenience of service as a motivator has a significant influence on service satisfaction, while economic benefits, privacy, and unverified risks as hygiene factors have no significant influence on the continuous intention. Managers of direct banks need to implement service differentiation strategies to gain customers' loyalty. Also they seek to find the determinants of social influence. The present study confirmed that there is a big difference between Korea and China in terms of factors affecting the continuous intention to use direct bank.

본 연구에서는 개인의 사회적 요소들이 게임 수행에 영향을 미치는지에 대한 여부를 살펴보았다. 개인의 성별, 연령, 최종학력, 월평균 소득 등의 요소와 개인이 인지하는 개인의 사회적 위치, 타인에 대한 신뢰도, 사회활동 참여 여부, 행복도 등이 게임 경험 여부, 게임 시간, 게임 이용 빈도 등에 영향을 미치는가에 대한 여부를 분석하였다. 조사 방법으로는 설문 조사가 실시되었으며, 국민 1,000명을 대상으로 수행되었다. 분석 결과 성별, 연령, 가구 월평균 소득 등은 게임 경험 여부, 게임 시간 등에 영향을 미치고 있었다. 또한 사회활동 참여 여부, 개인의 사회적 위치, 타인에 대한 신뢰도 등도 게임 관련 요소들에 영향을 미치고 있었다. 그리고 이러한 영향은 온라인 게임인가 모바일 게임인가에 따라서도 서로 다른 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 월평균 소득, 사회활동 참여 등이 증가하고 타인에 대한 신뢰도가 낮을 경우 게임시간 및 이용 빈도가 증가하였다. 이러한 분석 결과를 통해 게임회사에서는 게임 이용자 요인을 고려하여 게임 구조를 보다 개선할 수 있을 것이다.

최근 소셜 네트워크 서비스를 기반으로 다양한 형태의 비즈니스와 컨텐츠 산업이 빠르게 성장하고 있으며, 그 중에서도 바로 소셜 네트워크 게임(Social Network Game, 이하 SNG)에 대한 주목도가 높아지고 있다. 특히, SNG 내 유료 아이템 구매로 인한 SNG 개발업체 및 개발자의 수익성에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있는 상황이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 어떠한 요인들이 SNG 이용자로 하여금 유료 아이템 구매를 유도하는 지에 대해 연구하고자 한다. 먼저, 문헌 연구를 통해 유료 아이템 구매의도의 선행 요인으로 플로우를 도출 하였고, 플로우에 영향을 주는 요인들을 크게 개인적 영향, 사회적 관계, 사회적 영향으로 분류하였다. 개인적 영향으로는 재미와 유능성, 사회적 관계로는 사회적 상호작용과 자기표현요구, 그리고 사회적 영향으로는 사회적 규범과 인지된 확산정도를 도출하고 연구 가설을 설정하였다. 국내 SNG 이용 경험자를 대상으로 실증 분석을 수행한 결과, 개인적 특성 중 재미, 사회적 관계 특성 중 자기표현욕구만 이용자 플로우에 유의미한 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 사회적 영향의 사회적 규범과 인지된 확산정도는 모두 아이템 구매의도에 직접적으로 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석 결과를 바탕으로 연구의 이론적 실무적 시사점을 도출하였다.
