현재 모바일 미디어는 미디어 시장에 있어 하나의 독립적인 미디어로서 기능하고 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 모바일 미디어의 중요성을 인식하여 수도권 청소년들의 모바일 미디어 이용에 영향을 미치는 요인을 인구통계학적 접근과 함께 사회문화적 차원에 초점을 맞추어 알아본 것이다. 연구 결과 인구통계학적 변인들과 사회문화적 변인들이 이동전화 구매와 모바일 콘텐츠 이용에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 세부적으로 보면, 인구통계학적 변인이 이동전화 구매를 보다 잘 설명하였고 사회문화적 변인들은 청소년들의 모바일 콘텐츠 이용에 대한 설명력이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 연구에서 확인한 유의미한 변인들 중에서는 동조성향과 과시성향이 청소년들의 모바일 미디어 관련 소비자 행동을 설명하는 핵심 변인으로 기능하고 있음을 알 수 있다. 본 연구의 발견점은 학자들은 물론 실무자들에게도 다양한 시사점을 제공하고 있다.

Using a data set drawn from 1419 college students, this study analyzes what implications clothing or fashion has on self-expression or image management in Korean society and who are more likely to use fashion as a image management tool in the process of interacting with others. Employing Pierre Bourdieu's concept of capital, we discuss three theories concerning correspondence between class and fashion: the theory focusing on economic capital in emphasizing the correspondence; the theory focusing on cultural capital in emphasizing the correspondence and the theory emphasizing relationships between fashion and other factors rather than class. Based on the theoretical examination, we select independent variables that can be grouped into status/class variables, or economic capital variables(such as subjective status, income, father's education, father's occupation) and socio-cultural variables, or cultural capital variables(such as possession of cultural capital, desire for upward mobility). Upon regressing strategic use of fashion on independent variables, we find that both status/class variables and socio-cultural variables are statistically significant in explaining the strategic mobilization of fashion for one's image production or social success. It shows that class as a form of economic capital has important effects on the strategic use of fashion, and cultural capital also has effects independent of economic capital.

본 연구는 일터에서 사용되는 로봇의 HRD 정책적 함의에 대해 고찰하고 있다. 기존 연구들은 로봇의 기술적 측면을 주로 다루고 있기 때문에, 본 연구는 일터에서의 로봇 기술의 한계와 가능성을 사회문화적 측면에서 이해하기 위해 쓰여졌다. 특히 로봇과 함께 일하는 데 있어 가장 적합한 조직 차원의 지원 방안을 찾기 위해 일터에서의 로봇-인간 간의 상호작용을 관찰하는데 필요한 대안적인 관점을 제시하고 있다. 그와 함께 본 연구는 HRD 실천적 연구를 위한 로봇 기술의 함의를 다음과 같이 제안한다. (1) 인간-로봇 간 상호작용과 관련된 전문성의 요소들을 정의하는 것 (2) 기술 도입으로 인한 조직 변화 과정에 대처하는 것 (3) 로봇 기술에 적응하기 위한 조직 개입 방안을 계획하는 것 (4) 로봇과 인간이 함께 일할 때 필요한 직업윤리를 수립하는 것. 본 연구에서 제시된 로봇 기술의 함의들은 향후 일터에서의 로봇 기술 사용과 관련된 양적, 질적 사회과학 연구의 개념적 프레임워크를 수립하는데 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study aims to explore the diverse characteristics of obese groups of Korean males in their 20's to 40's. A total of 201 males who each had a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 23 or over were recruited through a convenient sampling. Samples were categorized into groups of overweight, slightly obese, and severely obese, and submitted for data analysis. Results are summarized as follows. First, in terms of demographic characteristics, slightly and severely obese males were older than overweight males. There were also group differences in marital status and household income. Second, slightly and severely obese groups demonstrated a higher perception of obesity and a lower perception of health than did the overweight group. Third, there were no group differences in body satisfaction, socio-cultural attitudes toward appearance, and self-esteem. Based on these results, we concluded that overweight, slightly obese, and severely obese groups were distinguishable from each other in terms of their demographic characteristics, whereas the slightly obese group and the severely obese group were not different in terms of perception of obesity, perception of health, weight control behaviors, body satisfaction, body image, socio-cultural attitudes toward appearance, and self-esteem. These findings may reflect that people may not become increasingly sensitive to socio-psychological stimulations as they gain more weight if they have exceeded a certain level of obesity. This observation provides meaningful implications for the differences among obesity groups given the lack of prior research focusing on this issue.

Nationalism endorses a collective movement to establish an authentic position in the international cultural and political arena. Arguably the dialectic of nationalism and geopolitics bears a reassuring similarity to the philosophical lineage going back, at least, to Hegelian dialectic of universality and particularity. This dialectic platform has been concerned with sustaining, among other things, the dynamics between the universal and the particular. In practical terms, nationalism prompts increased sensitivity to socio-political pressures coming from abroad to cancel the national particularity into geopolitical, so-called universal, anonymity. Drawing suggestively from psychoanalysis, Lacanian ethics in particular, this discussion articulates the ethics of nationalism. Recounting Kantian self-determination as a reference point for responsible morality, Lacan suggests the problematics of desire as an alternative index for ethics. As individual desire flows from the unfathomable abyss of misrecognition, Lacanian ethics dissuade individuals to unlearn the fantasy that their own real desire, a residue produced by the Symbolic process, can be satisfied with that very socio-cultural Symbolic. Subjecting nationalism to Lacanian implications, Zizek illuminates nationalism as a small screening object which obscures as much as displays the circuits to the individual desire. Psychoanalytic ethics addresses that the ethical base should be found upon the particular, individual, real desire. As far as the nationalist cause also puts emphasis upon particularity rather than universality, nationalism is logically positioned to exert reflective efforts on empowering its constitutive individuals. Lacanian ethics persuades us to challenge the universal claim and to work through to regenerate nationalism in presenting its final contribution towards individual particularities.

This study examines the implications of fashion in self-expression or image management among college students in Korea. Socio-demographic factors are considered in addressing following research questions: why Korean college students seek luxury goods; how they recognize the effects of using luxury goods on their image management; whether or not they have purchased counterfeit luxury goods; and why they buy counterfeit goods. In order to explain the relationship between fashion and social class, the study examines various sociological theories including Erving Goffman's dramaturgical approach. The data were drawn from 1419 students from 10 universities nationwide in 2005. Chi-square analyses yields outcomes as follows: Using luxury goods works as a class symbol that gives the users the image of higher socio-economic background; use of counterfeit luxury goods and its symbolic effects in image management do not have significant relationship with socio-economic background.

Ecosystem services (ES) are the benefits that people obtain from ecosystems. Traditional ES assessment methods have focused on the supply of ES, using biophysical data. However, these methods often fail to capture the full value of ES, which is also determined by social and cultural factors. This study proposes a new approach to ES assessment that incorporates socio-cultural perspectives. The study was conducted in Seoul, South Korea. A survey was conducted of 1,805 residents of Seoul to assess their satisfaction with ecosystem services. Exploratory factor analysis was used to identify bundles of ES that were perceived as important by residents. A revised importance-satisfaction analysis was used to calculate the urgency level of each bundle. The results of the study showed that the 21 ES that were considered in the survey could be grouped into three bundles: urban green area-based, biodiversity-based, and resilience-based. The urgency level analysis showed that some bundles were more important than others, and that some bundles were more urgent than others. The findings of this study have several implications. First, they suggest that a socio-cultural approach to ES assessment can provide a more comprehensive and accurate assessment of ES. Second, they show that this approach can be used to identify areas where ES management is most needed. Third, they suggest that this approach could be used to inform ES management and policy decisions.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the dimensions and pattern types for the perception of Korean traditional food of Uzbeki-Koreans and to find the determinants of the pattern types, taking food cultural backgrounds into account. Data were collected from 634 Koreans living in Uzbekistan and were factor- and cluster-analyzed. The results revealed three different dimensions and pattern types. Descriptive statistics demonstrated that perceptional pattern types, i.e., tradition recognized patterns, traditional living patterns, traditional modernized patterns, are likely to vary depending on socio-demographic and cultural background of Korean traditional food in Uzbekistan. Similarities and differences in perceptional pattern types are discussed, and implications for food and nutrition specialists and food-marketers are provided.
