As social media has become a part of daily life, new types of online opinion leaders are emerging, and in turn, changes in traditional fashion leaders and leadership are expected. Considering such changes, this study attempted to reexamine fashion leader types and influence characteristics from the perspective of college students as fashion followers. Students were asked to write an essay identifying their fashion leader and how and why they were influenced by him or her. Sixty essays entitled "My Fashion Leader" were collected and content-analyzed. A total of 78 fashion leaders were identified and categorized into four types including celebrities, social media influencers, friends/family/acquaintances, and people seen on the street in order of frequency. Influence characteristics of the identified fashion leaders included superiority, role model, similarity, and familiarity. Similarity was observed across all types of fashion leaders, while superiority and familiarity were identified for celebrities and friends/family/acquaintances, respectively. The results imply that celebrities, mostly those from the TV, movie, and music industries, are still important as fashion leaders in society regardless of their communication style, while friends/family/acquaintances as opinion leaders within a consumer group are important to provide information, advice, and help. However, social media influencers between the two groups are expanding the influence.

정보를 전달하고 여론을 형성하는 전통적인 매스미디어의 기능이 ICT 기술의 발전으로 소셜미디어를 통해 정보와 의견을 공유하는 환경으로 급격하게 변해 왔으며, 그 영향력을 더욱 강화시키고 있다. 즉, 일반 대중들이 소셜미디어를 통해 정치 사회 경제 변화에 대한 여론을 생산하고 공유하는 여론의 영향력이 갈수록 커지고 있는 것이 확인되고 있으며, 그 변화는 선거활동과 같은 정치 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 소셜미디어를 활용해서 대중들의 의사를 파악하고, 반영하기 위한 노력은 정치 영역뿐만 아니라 공공 영역에서도 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 본 논문은 교육분야 정책과정에서 소셜미디어 기반 여론을 활용하기 위한 가능성을 탐색하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 교육정책 중 소프트웨어교육에 관한 키워드를 중심으로 데이터를 수집하고, 문서의 주요 토픽과 토픽별 출현 확률, 토픽 트렌드를 분석하였다. 그 결과 '국내 컴퓨터 교육 시간'토픽이 전체의 43.99%를 차지하였으며, '프라임 사업 선정' 토픽이 36.81%, '인공지능 프로그램'토픽이 7.94%의 출현 확률을 나타내어, 대중의 소프트웨어교육 정책에 대한 주요 관심도를 파악할 수 있었다. 또한, 시기별 토픽 추세 및 연관성 있는 토픽간의 트렌드 비교 분석을 통하여 동일한 주제의 정책이라도 교육과정의 시기와 정책의 대상에 따라 유연한 정책수립이 필요하다는 시사점을 도출할 수 있었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to propose a new Risk Priority Number(RPN) evaluation method which analyzes value of product functions by mining customer opinions in Social Network Service(SNS). Methods: A traditional RPN is measured by three evaluation standards (Severity, Occurrence, Detection) which are analyzed by manufacturing engineers and researchers. On the other hand, these standards are analyzed by customers' viewpoints through SNS opinion mining in this research. In order to extract customer feedbacks from textual data sets, the methodology in this paper implies natural language processing, hereby collecting product related data sets and analyzing the opinions automatically. An emotional polarity of an opinion indicates severity, while the number of negative opinion shows occurrence, and the entire number of customer opinion refers to detection. Results: The results of this study are as follows; As a result of the CRPN evaluation, it is confirmed that the features evaluated as risky are highly likely to be improved in the next series. Therefore, CRPN is an effective risk assessment model that reflects customer feedback. Conclusion: Reflecting customer feedback is a useful tool for risk assessment of the product as well as for developing new products and improving existing products.

미디어를 통한 많은 소셜 데이터가 유통, 활용, 공개 되고 있다. 이 소셜 데이터를 이용한 미디어에 대한 즐거움과 정보의 효율적인 측면만 부각되고, 여기에서 발생되는 지나친 정보 노출과 사용자에 대한 인신 공격적 집단 댓글의 피해 문제는 소흘히 취급되고 있다. 본 연구에서는, 악성 집단 댓글 분석에 의한 SNS 여론 소셜 데이터 분석을 하였다. 소셜 네트워크가 가진 구조적 정보 이용을 통해 분석된 정보 분석 데이터의 양, 즉 SNS 언급 횟수 인 버즈량이 얼마나 많은 사람들에게 배포되고 악용되는가에 대한 문제를 다양한 측정 방법으로 분석하였다.

Social media is being increasingly utilized in disaster relief work to identify safety issues, locate displaced-victims, and seek or provide support for those who need help. The presence of social media in disaster management has changed significantly in recent years, as it was not prevalent in the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake, but had become a powerful force in the 2013 Ya'an earthquake. This paper discusses the development of social media in disaster management via making a comparison between how it functioned in the two earthquakes. It examines the following aspects: who are the stakeholders that use social media in the earthquake management; how do they adopt this means in response to the earthquakes; and what are the outcomes of adopting social media with regards to public engagement and collaboration in an emergency event. As Sina Weibo acts as the equivalent of China's Twitter, the methodology relies on an analysis of posts in Weibo. The outcomes primarily show that: (1) authorities, celebrities and the public actively adopted social media for the purpose of information dissemination and resource mobilization; and (2) social media users are both content consumers and content generators in the times of earthquakes. The study concludes that social media as a backchannel communication tool is helpful for government institutions, corporations, and nonprofit organizations to build relationships with their stakeholders in the disaster management cycle. The result will interest academics and emergency management practitioners who are concerned with improving disaster communication.

A recent nationwide survey reported that South Koreans perceive large corporations as the party that should be the most responsible for tackling climate change. This public opinion result offers insight into the argument that defining who is responsible for the climate change issue can guide campaigners and policymakers in designing effective communication strategies. This study examines how attributing responsibility to large corporations can affect behavioral intention to support government policy and regulation via a moderated mediation model of the perceived risk of climate change and corporate social responsibility (CSR). A nationwide online survey of 295 South Koreans was conducted. The findings reveal an indirect effect of responsibility attribution on behavioral intention through risk perception. Moreover, perceived CSR moderated the causal link between risk perception and behavioral intention, such that South Koreans reported higher levels of behavioral intention when they reported higher CSR. However, perceived CSR failed to moderate the indirect effect. These findings have implications for communication processes and policymaking to address climate change problems in South Korea.

Leading up to the 2019 presidential election in Indonesia, campaigns have emerged through social media, particularly Twitter, using various hashtags, such as #2019GantiPresiden (2019 Change President) and #TetapJokowi (Always Jokowi). This paper tries to understand the presidential candidates' power map in forming opinions and influencing voter behavior by analyzing Twitter from August 6, 2018 to September 15, 2018, just before the beginning of the official campaign period, by searching for the keyword "pemilihan presiden RI Tahun 2019" (RI presidential election in 2019). According to our NodeXL's analysis, there were 1,650 active Twitter users talking about the 2019 presidential election. The 1,650 Twitter users have formed a communication network of 46,750 relationships formed from messages in the form of tweets, comments, and retweets. Our analysis found that those mentioning "pilihan presiden 2019" form large communication networks around four clusters: one for each of the two candidates (Jokowi and Prabowo) and two for opinion leaders who are undecided about the election (Gus Mus and Mas Piyu). GusMus is a religious leader, as an official of the PBNU Rais Syuriah (an Islamic organization) and has a large following both on and off Twitter. "MasPiyu" is an unidentified Twitter user; he only has a large following on Twitter, but does not have support offline.

Mixed-mode (or multi-mode) surveys and (volunteer) web panels were recently introduced as ways to cope with changes in the social survey environment, which is going through a rapid and massive transformation. The direction, speed, and magnitude of these changes have been clear in Korea, too. Enumerated in Figure 1 are the social surveys between 1960 and 2010 archived by the Korean Social Science Data Archive (KOSSDA) 2. The left panel shows the exponential growth in the overall volume. The other two panels, more importantly, show the changes in the composition. Mixed-mode and online surveys are rapidly increasing their shares and are fast becoming de facto standards in Korea, as in many other countries.
