The purpose of this study is to classify students' attitudes towards uniform modification and analyze their subjective experience regarding appearance, and body satisfaction. Questionnaires were administered to 369 middle and high school girls living in Deagu Metropolitan City. Frequency, factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, ${\chi}^2$-test, and t-test are all used for data analysis. Our findings are as follows. Two hundred thirty students (62.3%) agreed to modify their school uniforms to express their personalities and follow fashion trends. Motives for uniform modification had to do with social life, physical attractiveness, and practicality. Attitudes toward appearance are found to be shaped by appearance internalization, active management of appearance, appearance needs, social recognition, and conformity. The motives for uniform modification reveal a significant correlation with attitudes toward appearance. Uniform modification satisfaction differed depending on sub-variables of attitude toward appearance(active management of appearance, personalized appearance needs, social recognition, and body satisfaction, such as satisfaction with height and BMI). There was a significant difference in expression of intention for future plastic surgery depending on body image.

The purpose of this study is to identify conceptual constructs of well-being consciousness and appearance management behaviors, and to examine the effects of these two variables on attitudes toward Korean herbal cosmetics for Korean and Japanese consumers. A survey was carried out among female consumers between the ages of 20 and 50, and a total of 500 responses were analyzed by descriptive analysis, reliability test, t-test, and confirmatory factor analysis, structural equation modeling and multi group analysis. The results of this study were as follows: 1) The result of CFA and the reliability test on well-being consciousness and appearance management of Korean and Japanese respondents clearly showed factorial structures on each of the variant assessments. 2) In regards to the well-being consciousness, Korean and Japanese respondents highly tended to perceive well-being as a benefit to the physical health and an eco-friendly lifestyle respectively. In the area of appearance management, Korean and Japanese respondents had similar patterns that showed high scores of skin care and weight control. Both Korean and Japanese consumers showed favorable attitudes toward Korean herbal cosmetic products. 3) The consumers' well-being consciousness revealed to have positive influences on appearance management behavior. Both well-being consciousness and appearance management positively influenced attitudes toward Korean herbal cosmetics. 4) As a result of MGA, the well-being consciousness had more positive impacts on Korean respondents' attitudes toward Korean herbal cosmetics than the appearance management variable when compared to the Japanese respondents. On the other hand, appearance management had more positive impacts on Japanese respondents' attitudes to-ward Korean herbal cosmetics than well-being consciousness when compared to the Korean respondents. These results suggest that differentiated marketing strategies for Korean herbal cosmetics are crucial when targeting Korean and Japanese consumers.

본 연구는 외모에 대한 사회문화적 태도 및 외모 콤플렉스가 반영구화장 만족도에 미치는 영향에서 준거집단의 영향의 조절효과를 검증하였다. 이를 위해 반영구화장을 시술받은 210명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 결과를 얻었다. 이를 SPSS 프로그램을 통해 결과를 분석하였으며 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 외모에 대한 사회문화적태도 중 신체적 외모의 사회적 중요성을 인지하는 인식은 시술 만족도에 유의한 영향을 나타냈다. 둘째, 자기의식적 외모콤플렉스는 시술 만족도에 유의적 영향을 나타냈다. 셋째, 외모에 대한 사회문화적 태도인 내면화가 시술 만족도에 미치는 영향에서 준거집단의 영향이 조절효과가 있음이 나타났으나 신체적 외모의 사회적 중요성을 인지하는 인식은 준거집단 영향의 조절효과가 나타나지 않아 차이를 보였다. 넷째, 외모콤플렉스인 타인에 의한 외모콤플렉스와 자기의식적 외모콤플렉스 모두 세미퍼머넌트 시술만족도에 미치는 영향에서 준거집단 영향의 조절효과가 나타났다. 마지막으로 세미퍼머넌트 시술만족도가 높을수록 향후 추가적인 시술의사가 높아지는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 광주 전남지역 남녀 중 고등학생을 대상으로 성별, 연령(학교급)과 외모에 대한 사회문화적 태도의 유형에 따른 신체비교, 신체만족, 그리고 외모관리행동에 어떠한 차이가 있는지 살펴봄으로써 이 지역 청소년들의 외모에 대한 사회문화적 태도 및 외모관리행동과 관련된 자료를 제공하고자 하였다. 598명의 자료를 결과분석에 이용하였으며 자료 분석을 위해 SPSS/PC WIN 19.0프로그램을 이용하여 기술통계, 신뢰도(Cronbach's ${\alpha}$)분석, 요인분석, ${\chi}^2$검증, K-means군집분석 t-test, ANOVA(일원변량분석), Duncan's grouping을 실시하였다. 광주 전남지역 청소년들도 보통이상으로 외모에 대한 사회문화적 기준을 수용하여 인식하고 내면화하는 경향이 있었다. 또한 여학생의 경우 남학생보다, 그리고 고등학생이 중학생보다 이러한 경향이 더욱 강하게 나타났다. 외모에 대한 사회문화적 태도는 수용형, 내면화형, 인식형, 비수용형으로 분류되었으며 외모에 대한 사회문화적 가치관을 내면화하는 정도가 높은 내면화형과 적극적으로 수용하는 수용형의 경우 신체만족도가 더 낮고 신체비교를 자주하였다. 또한 외모관리행동에서도 성형과 기능성보정의복착용에 대해 적극적이고 수용적이었으며 다른 사람에게 보여주기 위한 체중감량을 위해 다이어트를 열심히 하고 피부관리와 청결관리를 적극적으로 하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 우리사회의 외모에 대한 현상을 객관적으로 볼 수 있고 자신의 신체상을 긍정적으로 볼 수 있는 시각을 길러주어야 할 것으로 보인다. 현실과 너무 떨어져 있는 현재의 사회문화적 외모기준으로부터 청소년의 자존감을 보호할 수 있는 바람직한 외모에 대한 태도와 행동을 기를 수 있는 교육내용이 가정교과 지도 시 강조되어야 할 필요가 있다고 하겠다.

Along with the increasing interests of modem-day society toward topics of health and beauty, various studies are being actively conducted on the effects of diet for obesity prevention, and separate from aspects of disease prevention and health promotion. This study aimed to examine individual perceptions of obesity by age, and to prepare basic data for implementing an age-based weight control system, by comparing attitudes toward weight control. The research and analysis were conducted using questionnaires, provided to high school students(teenagers, 189 students), college students(20 or older, 116 students), and adults(30 or over, 88 adults) living in Daegu City. In terms of the respondents' perceptions of obesity, among those who described themselves as overweight, only about 10% were actually proven to be overweight. Also, significantly more female students than male students perceived themselves as overweight, despite the fact that they were in a normal weight range(p<0.007). There was no significant difference in the cause of obesity by gender, but it was found to be attributed to a lack of exercise for teenagers, and poor eating habits for those in their twenties and thirties. Concerning the intention to participate in a weight management class, the female teenagers showed significantly more interest than the male teenagers(p<0.017). Also, with regard to the respondents' attitudes toward weight control, the teenage females showed significantly higher interest in weight control than the teenage males p<0.003 and those in their twenties p<0.001. Moreover, regarding the period in which the respondents became most interested in weight, the teenage male students were most interested in weight during their middle school years and teenage females became most interested during their high school years. Therefore, the information from this study leads us to propose there is a need to correct the suggested reckless dieting that is occurring within an appearance-based society, as well as a need to establish a systematic weight control system, along with gathering subsequent basic data.
