Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of children's age and their fathers' childrearing involvement on the social morality of young children. Methods: The data were gathered from parents who had 3-5 year old children enrolled in daycare centers and from their daycare teachers. The parents answered questions about their children's socio-demographic background and the father's childrearing involvement. And the teachers rated children's social morality. The data from a total of 245 questionnaires were analyzed by SPSS 25.0. Results: First, there was a statistically significant difference between young children's morality score and convention score. Young children's morality scores were higher than their convention scores. Second, children's age was a significant influential factor on both their moral and conventional social morality. Third, father's care-discipline had the only impact on children's conventional social morality. That is, children's social morality was higher when their fathers gave them more care and guidance. Forth, an interaction effect between children's age and father's development-support on children's conventional social morality was found. Conclusion/Implications: The results from this study suggest that a differentiated approach is needed according to the types of childrearing involvement of fathers in order to improve children's social morality.

Although online education service markets are growing fast, previous studies have been limited to the studies on media types or system qualities of online education. In order to provide timely implications for online education service providers to maintain and increase the number of users, other factors such as interactivity and community perspectives should be considered. In this study, social capital and service quality were adopted as antecedents of learning motivation. Also, service quality dimensions, as well as learning motivation, were chosen to examine its impact on intention to repurchase of online education services. Research findings show that structural and cognitive dimensions of social capital are proved as antecedents of relational capital; structural and relational social capital positively influence on learning motivation; tangibility positively makes impact on learning motivation; and intention to repurchase is positively influenced by responsiveness and learning motivation. Practical implications based on the research findings are presented.

Unidimensional construct of conspicuous consumption which focuses on the ostentation of the economic assets are limited in describing today's consumers. We propose that both ostentation of social status and demonstration of uniqueness through overt consumption should be considered in the realm of conspicuous consumption. This research aims to examine the two dimensions of conspicuous consumption tendencies and their impact on new product adoption intention, which is mediated through the perceived value of the new products. This research empirically validates the theoretical conjecture by conducting an online survey (N=272). Our empirical findings reveal that ostentation of social status influences new product adoption intention both directly and indirectly through perceived social value, while demonstration of uniqueness improves new product adoption intention only indirectly through perceived utilitarian and hedonic value. This research identifies the ostentation of social status and demonstration of uniqueness as two dimensions of conspicuous consumption and refines scales to measure them. In addition, this research identifies conspicuous consumption as a driver of new product adoption intention and recognizes the mediating role of perceived value.

The current study investigated whether SNS such as Twitter can be an assisting tool to compensate the limitations of online learning from social-affective and cognitive perspectives. Such limitations include low level of motivation to participate, feeling of isolation, rare exchanges of ideas and feedback from peers or instructors. This paper reports findings from a research study on the use of Twitter in online learning in Higher Education. Survey and subsequent interviews were conducted to examine students' perceptions about the cognitive and social-affective aspects of their participation in Twitter activities. Some of the challenges and potentials in integrating Twitter into online course are also addressed. It can be concluded that Twitter contributes not only to building close relationships among peers and instructors but also to opening a communication channel that can extend cognitive potentials.

This study analyzed the influence of social distance and visual information on consumers' fashion style preferences in terms of information characteristics and providers. Data were collected from 521 females in their twenties and thirties who had experience using SNS. The empirical study results were as follows. First, with other factors of exposure under control, the social distance of information characteristics and providers showed a significant impact on fashion style preferences only when social distances were close. Second, the impact of social distance varied depending on the consumer's characteristics. This proved that innovation had significant negative influences, while conformity and informational sensitivity to others showed positive influences on the effects of social distance in terms of information characteristics. Innovation and fashion leadership also showed a negative influence on the social distance effect in terms of information providers. Third, conformity, informational sensitivity to others, and fashion leadership, proved to have a significant impact on the acceptance of eWOM in fashion styles, but innovativeness and normative sensitivity to others did not have a significant influence. This study can be used as baseline data in SNS marketing strategies for vitalizing information spread through eWOM.

본 연구는 전세계 42개 SIB 사업의 운영구조를 검토하고, 주요 단계별 핵심기준을 중심으로 유형화 분석을 실시하였으며, 이를 토대로 SIB의 향후 방안에 대해 모색하였다. 분석의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, SIB의 기획은 중앙정부의 부처가 기획한 경우가 과반수 이상을 차지하고 있었다. 투자자 구성은 2-3개 조직이 공동투자하는 경우가 일반적이었는데, 이 때 사회적금융조직이 투자자로 포함된 경우가 54.8%로 가장 많았지만, 민간 투자은행이나 고액 투자자가 참여하는 경우도 33.3%로 나타났다. 둘째, 서비스의 제공은 단일조직에서 수행하는 경우가 전체 분석사례 중 73.8%였고, 제공되는 서비스 중에서 74%가 아동과 청소년을 대상으로 하고 있었다. 셋째, 성과평가는 특정기준에 도달할 경우 성과를 지급하는 방식인 '성과표' 방식이 전체 사례 중 64.3%로 가장 많았지만, 유사한 집단과의 비교를 통해 성과를 평가하는 경우도 23.8%나 존재했다. 넷째, 유형화 분석 결과 세 개의 유형이 도출되었다. 첫번째로 도출된 유형은 '중앙정부-사회적 금융 결합형'으로서 중앙정부가 기획하고 사회적 금융조직이 주요한 투자자가 되면서 성과표를 중심으로 성과급을 지급하는 형태이다. 두 번째로 도출된 유형은 '복합참여형'으로서, SIB의 단계별로 참여하는 주체들이 가장 다양할 뿐만 아니라, 성과평가 과정에서도 가장 체계적인 절차를 보여주고 있다. 서비스는 주로 단일 기관에서 제공되고 있지만, 비교집단을 통한 유사실험설계를 활용한 성과평가를 하는 것이 특징이다. 마지막 유형은 '서비스기관 다수형'으로서, 유형의 고유한 특이점이 발견되지는 않았으나, 서비스를 제공하는 기관이 복수라는 공통점이 있었다. SIB에 대한 통계적 유형화를 처음으로 시도한 본 연구는 운영구조에 대한 개괄적 설명이나 단순나열식 비교에서 더 나아가지 못하고 있는 SIB 관련 연구를 보다 체계화시켰다는 의의가 있다. 또한, SIB를 기획하는데 있어 주요 단계별 고려해야 하는 이슈 및 쟁점에 대해 구체적인 정보를 제공하였으며, 지방정부나 민간조직이 SIB를 기획하는 경우에는 투자자 구성이나 참여하는 주체의 만족을 위하여 성과평가 및 관리와 관련된 방안을 보다 체계적으로 구성하는 것이 효과적인 전략임을 제안하였다. 뿐만 아니라 본 연구는 SIB의 등장 배경인 다양한 주체간 협치와 네트워크가 보다 활발하게 전개되기 위해서는 기획자나 투자자 구성이 보다 확대될 필요가 있음을 제안하였다.
