BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: International students face dissimilar food environments, which could lead to changes in dietary behaviors and anthropometric characteristics between before and after migration. We sought to examine the risk factors, including dietary behaviors, acculturation, and demographic characteristics, related to overweight subjects residing in South Korea. SUBJECTS/METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study, collecting data from 142 Chinese international students (63 males, 79 females) in 2013. RESULTS: The mean age of the subjects was 25.4 years, and almost half of them immigrated to South Korea to earn a master's degree or doctoral degree (n = 70, 49.3%). Chinese international students showed an increase in skipping meals and eating speed, but a decrease in the frequency of fruit and vegetable consumption in South Korea compared to when they lived in China. We found a statistically significant increase in weight (69.4 ${\rightarrow}$ 73.9 kg) and BMI (22.4 ${\rightarrow}$ $23.8kg/m^2$) for male subjects (P < 0.001) but no change for female subjects. We also found that overweight subjects were more likely to be highly acculturated and male compared with normal-weight subjects. CONCLUSION: Among Chinese international students living in South Korea, male and more highly acculturated subjects are more vulnerable to weight gain. This study provides useful information to design tailored nutrition intervention programs for Chinese international students.

This study investigates the dimensionality of perceived web site quality for fashion e-retailers to compare the differences in perceived web site quality between Korean and Chinese college students in the identification of the decisive web site quality dimensions for customer satisfaction and repurchase intentions. Data were collected from 300 Korean and 300 Chinese online apparel shoppers. The survey was statistically analyzed by factor analysis, T-test, and regression analysis. The perceived service quality dimensions were identified as product quality, economic efficiency, information quality, site design, and trust. The Chinese college students had significantly higher evaluations than Korean college students on information quality and trust. For Korean college students, product quality, economic efficiency, and trust were the most decisive predictors of customer satisfaction and they have indirect effects on repurchase intentions. For Chinese college students, product quality and information quality were identified as the most decisive predictors of customer satisfaction and they have indirect effects on repurchase intentions. Strategic directions for e-commerce business targeting Korean or Chinese college students are suggested in the conclusion.

본 연구는 재한 중국인 유학생들의 문화적응과정에서 그들의 사용하는 대처전략과 스스로 지각하는 변화양상에 대해 알아보았다. 한국에 거주하고 있는 56명의 중국유학생들이 연구에 참여하고, 개념도(concept mapping)를 이용하여 자료를 분석하였다. 그 결과 중국인 유학생들은 '언어적 유능감 향상'과 '사회적 네트워크 활용'을 중요한 대처전략으로 생각하며, '문화적 자기', '개인적 자기'의 변화를 포함하여 광범위한 측면에서의 변화를 인식하고 있음을 확인하였다. 대처전략과 변화양상에 대한 인식은 체류기간에 따라 차이를 보였는데, 장기 체류한 중국인 유학생들은 단기 유학생과는 달리 '기분조절'을 대처전략으로 삼았다. 또한, 단기 유학생들이 긍정적 변화양상을 우세하게 보고하는 반면,장기 유학생들은 긍정적 변화보다는 부정적 변화를 더 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 이 연구 결과는 추후 대학 관계자들이 체류기간에 따라 다른 경험을 하게 되는 중국 유학생을 이해하고 민감하게 대응할 필요가 있음을 시사한다.

제7차 교육 과정의 7학년 과학교과서에서 화학영역의 용어를 분석하고 한자 화학용어에 대해 한문 선택반과 비한문 선택반 학생들의 난이도와 이해도를 분석하였다. 7학년 과학교과서에서 한자용어의 비율은 6차 교육 과정에 비하여 약간 줄어들었으나 여전히 70%가 넘게 높았다. 학생들은 추상적인 개념어를 주로 어려워했으며, 전문용어를 비전문 용어보다 어렵게 생각하고 구체어거나 일상적으로 많이 사용하는 용어를 쉽게 생각하였다. 학생들의 한자용어에 대한 이해도의 경향은 난이도와 대부분 일치하였다. 한자화학용어에 대한 이해도는 한문 선택반 학생들이 높았으며, 쉽게 전환된 화학용어에 대해 비교군의 차이가 없었고 모두 한자 화학용어에 대한 이해도보다 크게 향상되었다. 따라서 한자용어를 한글로 전환하여 가능한 쉽고 익숙한 한글 위주의 국 한 혼용의 용어로 교과서가 쓰인다면 과학교과에 대한 이해도가 향상되리라고 생각된다.

본 연구에서는 국내 유학생 중 가장 높은 비율을 차지하는 중국 유학생과 한국 대학생들 간의 인터넷쇼핑몰 이용 시 공통점과 차이점이 있는지 확인하고 이용 만족도에 영향을 미치는 속성이 무엇인지 파악하고자 한다. 그 결과를 토대로 중국 유학생들이 국내 인터넷쇼핑몰 이용과정에서 만족도를 높일 방안을 제시하고 국내 인터넷쇼핑몰을 운영 중인 기업에는 외국인 고객들의 이용 만족을 향상할 수 있는 전략을 조언할 수 있을 것이다. 연구결과, 첫째, 한국 학생들과 중국 학생들의 인터넷쇼핑몰 이용할 때에 경험했던 시스템 평가 요인 중 한국 학생들은 정보 품질이 중국 학생들보다 더 좋다는 결과를 나타냈으며, 중국 학생들은 한국 학생들보다 기능성이 더 좋다는 결과를 나타냈다. 둘째, 한국 학생들과 중국 학생들이 인터넷쇼핑몰 이용할 때에 경험했던 물류시스템 평가요소 중 신속성과 배송 품질은 모두 한국 학생들이 중국 학생들보다 더 좋다는 결과를 나타냈다. 셋째, 한국 학생들이 국내 인터넷쇼핑몰을 이용할 때에 소비만족도에 영향을 미치는 요인으로는 기능성, 배송 품질, 응답 신뢰성, 정보 품질, 신속성 모두 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 중국 유학생들은 배송 품질을 제외한 기능성, 정보 품질, 신속성, 응답 신뢰성 등이 모두 만족도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the differences in critical thinking and professionalism between Korean and Chinese nursing students. Critical thinking and professionalism were a part of five domains to evaluate nursing education: critical thinking, professionalism, leadership, communication, and nursing practice from the Korean Accreditation Board of Nursing. Methods: Data were collected from 207 college nursing students: 104 students from the 4-year degree program in Korea and 103 from the 5-year degree program in China from September 2006 to September 2007. The instruments for Chinese students were translated in Chinese and re-translated to check accuracy. The data were analyzed by using the SPSS/PC+ Win 12.0 Version. The $x^2$-test to compare general characteristics and the t-test to examine the differences of the study variables were conducted. Results: Korean nursing students reported significantly higher scores of critical thinking than did Chinese students while Chinese students reported significantly higher scores of professionalism. Students took previous courses associated with critical thinking reported significantly higher scores than did those without previous courses taken. There was no significant difference in scores of professionalism whether students had previous experience of related courses or not. Rather than, students with clinical practice reported higher scores of professionalism than did those without clinical practice. Conclusion: Levels of critical thinking were influenced by course focusing on critical thinking while professionalism was improved by combination of associated courses and clinical practice. For follow-up study, there is needed to examine nursing curriculum between Korea and China.

This study compared nutrition knowledge, dietary behaviors, and checking behaviors of food and nutrition labels between Korean and Chinese university students to obtain useful data for development of an education program for healthy dietary life. The data were collected by a self-administered questionnaire in Korea and China. Frequencies, t tests, ${\chi}^2$ tests, Cronbach's ${\alpha}$, and Pearson's correlation coefficient analysis were conducted by SPSS Win. V.21.0. The levels of nutrition knowledge and dietary behaviors were not high. Korean students showed higher percentage of correct answers about nutrition knowledge and levels of dietary behaviors than Chinese students. The means of degree of checking contents of food labels were 3.46 points for Korean students and 3.11 for Chinese students. Both groups of students showed the highest degree of checking milk and dairy products. The degree of understanding nutritive component labeling of Chinese students was higher than that of Korean students. Both groups of students showed higher than normal levels of confidence about nutritive component labeling and necessity of education on food and nutrition labels. The most preferred method of education on food and nutrition labels was broadcast media for both groups of students. In addition, there were significant correlations among nutrition knowledge, dietary behaviors, checking degree of food labels, checking degree of nutritive component labeling, and experience of nutrition education.

Many students prefer to study abroad to increase their chances of having a better future. While studying abroad they may encounter difficulties such as adapting to the culture of the country they are studying in. Chinese students coming to Korea are no exception to this, and when they are studying abroad, the new environment they are in may cause them hardships which may impact on their social life and even their academic performance. In order to develop their careers, they face many difficulties and challenges. Cultural differences they experience may change their attitudes, thoughts, and values. This research focuses on international students who are not yet certain about their future plans. In order to grasp levels of daily life satisfaction, ease of communication, and future planning orientation, this study conducted a survey of Chinese students who study in Korea. The empirical analysis showed that students with high level of life satisfaction have a tendency to enter graduate school. However, communication has no relation to future planning orientation.
