Appearance management is a serious issue for adults and young people in Korean society. People of various ages have used diverse means to improve their appearances. This study focused on dieting as an appearance management behavior in female adolescents. Dieting behaviors are not just a means to improve appearance; they may also relate to individuals' beliefs and self-control. The importance of individual psychological/personality factors cannot, therefore, be ruled out. Such factors can help explain personality factors explain "what causes a compulsive diet and what factors can alleviate it". This study reviewed the literature on perfectionism and self-control as individual personality factors, and empirically examined the effects of these variables on perceived body distortion and dieting behaviors. We performed a structural equation model analysis to verify our hypothesis. The results are as follows: we found perfectionism to be positively related to perceived body distortion and dieting behaviors; we also found self-control to be negatively related to perceived body distortion though unrelated to dieting behaviors; finally, our analysis identified a relationship between perceived body distortion and dieting behaviors. These results indicate that perfectionism and self-control should be considered when conducting guidance and counseling sessions on issues related to dieting behaviors for adolescent' appearance management. This paper concludes by discussing the study's implications and limitations.

The popularity of cosmetic procedures has increased over the past decade. Korean consumers have shown different levels of demand for the two types of cosmetic procedures (surgical and nonsurgical). This study examines the effect of appearance pressure from family, friends, and social media on the internalization and face/body satisfaction that can determine the levels of acceptance for each cosmetic procedure among young Korean females. Data was collected from 379 females in their 20s and 30s, using an online survey questionnaire. Statistical analysis were performed using SPSS 24.0 and AMOS. The results indicated that only social media pressure significantly influenced young women's internalization of attractive appearance. Internalization was negatively associated with face and body satisfaction. Face satisfaction was negatively related to the acceptance of cosmetic surgical and nonsurgical procedures; however, body satisfaction was not related to the acceptance of cosmetic surgical and nonsurgical procedures. This study highlights the significant importance of social media and its powerful impact on developing young women's body image perceptions.

중고등학생들의 인권침해에 대한 사회적 관심이 커져가면서 많은 중고등학교에서 시행하고 있는 외모규제에 대한 문제가 관심의 초점이 되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 서울시 고등학교에서의 외모규제에 대하여 학생들이 어떻게 지각하고 있는가를 조사하기 위한 데 있다. 서울시의 6개 남녀공학 고등학교에 재학 중인 $1{\sim}2$학년생 866명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 학생들에게 50개의 외모관련 항목들을 제시하고 각 항목들에 대한 규제 강도와 중요성에 대한 지각과 준수도를 질문하였다. 학생들의 강도 지각, 중요도 지각, 준수도에 따라 50개의 세부 규제 항목을 분류해 본 결과 규제의 강도가 높은 항목이라도 학생들의 중요도 인식이 높아야 준수도가 높았다. 규제의 강도가 낮게 지각된 항목들에 대해서도 학생들이 중요도를 지각하는 경우 자발적으로 준수하고 있는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 외모규제에 대한 강도 지각, 중요도 지각, 준수도에 미치는 개인적 특성의 영향을 살펴본 결과, 강도 지각에는 성별, 학년, 성적과 관련이 있었고, 중요도 지각의 경우 성별, 지역, 용돈, 성적과 상관이 있었다. 준수도의 경우 성별, 지역, 학년, 용돈이 상관을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 남학생이 여학생보다 강도는 높게 중요도는 낮게 지각하는 데 비해 준수도는 높았고, 강북학생일수록, 용돈이 적을수록, 성적이 낮을수록 규제 강도를 높게 지각하고 중요도를 낮게 지각하였으며 준수도가 높았다. 본 연구는 교사들과 교육행정 종사자들에게 중요한 시사점을 갖는다. 학교에서 학생들에게 외모관련 항목들의 중요성을 잘 인식시키거나 학생들의 시각을 반영하는 방식으로 외모관련 규제를 바꾸어 나가는 것이 이러한 외모규제를 보다 효율적으로 만드는 방법 일 것이다.

This study examines female new seniors' clothing consumption behaviors, such as their information sources, clothing store selection criteria, and perceived importance of sales associates' attributes, based on their level of clothing involvement. A face-to-face survey was conducted through a market research firm. The subjects of this study were female adults in their 50s and 60s residing in the Seoul metro area (N=197). Significant differences were found in the clothing consuming behaviors of new seniors depending on their clothing involvement(CI). High-CI new seniors tended to place more importance on both personal and non-personal information sources than low-CI new seniors. High-CI new seniors place importance both "merchandise assortment and store atmosphere" and "sales associates and service" when they select stores for clothing than low-CI new seniors. In terms of sales associates' attributes, high-CI new seniors tend to place more importance on customer-orientation than medium- and low-CI groups. Medium- and high-CI new seniors tend to place more importance on appearance than low-CI groups. However, there were no significant statistical differences for professional expertise among the three different CI groups.

The purpose of this study is to identify the antecedents and consequence of role-relaxed consumption. Consumption-related variables were considered as antecedents, and fashion-related variable was considered as a consequence. Hedonic consumption, impulse buying, value consciousness, and brand sensitivity were included as consumption-related variables and fashion consciousness was included as a fashion-related variable. It was hypothesized that hedonic consumption, impulse buying, value consciousness, and brand sensitivity influence rolerelaxed consumption and then influence fashion consciousness. Data were gathered by surveying university students in Seoul, using convenience sampling. Two hundred twenty seven questionnaires were used in the statistical analysis, exploratory factor analysis using SPSS and confirmatory factor analysis and path analysis using AMOS. While hedonic consumption, impulse buying, value consciousness, and brand sensitivity were uni-dimensions, role-relaxed consumption and fashion consciousness were multi-dimensions. Factor analysis of role-relaxed consumption revealed two dimensions, 'self-centered decision making' factor and 'importance of intrinsic value' factor. In addition, factor analysis of fashion conscious revealed three dimensions, 'individualism' factor, 'dressing style' factor, and 'appearance' factor. Tests of the hypothesized path show that impulse buying and brand sensitivity negatively influence 'self-centered decision making' and that hedonic consumption and value consciousness negatively influence 'importance of intrinsic value'. While 'self-centered decision making'negatively influence 'dressing style' and 'appearance, 'importance of intrinsic value' negatively influences all factors of fashion consciousness. The implications of these findings and suggestions for future study are also discussed.
