The purpose of this study was to investigate consumer behavior based on the experience from visiting Jeonju Hanok Village. This study tested the relationship between the experience and intention to revisit for consumers who visited the village mediated by emotion and place attachment as a structural equation model. The results of this study were as follows. First, the perceived emotion was found to be significantly influenced by experience. Consumers were likely to feel positive emotions if their experiences of entertainment, escapism, and esthetics were positive. Second, the place attachment was found to be significantly influenced by experience. If consumers perceived positive experience of education and escapism, then they would like to be attached to the place where they experienced such positive experience. Finally, the intention to revisit was found to be significantly influenced by the emotion and the place attachment. If positive emotion and place attachment were well-established through consumer experience, then consumers would like to increase the intention to revisit the place.

When examining the effects of volunteer activities, both quantity and quality sides of volunteer activities were considered in the research model and besides the direct effects of volunteer activities on their sense of community, the mediating role of self-esteem and peer attachment were also examined. The data set of conducted by National Youth Policy Institute was reanalyzed for this study. The subjects of this study were 1,426 first-grade middle school students who had experiences of volunteer activities. The results of the study are as follows. First, the total hours of volunteer activities and the satisfaction with volunteer activities were positively related to their sense of community respectively. In an integrative model which combines both quantity and quality aspects of volunteer activities, however, only the satisfaction with volunteer activities was found to be significant. This means that the satisfaction with and reflective learning after volunteer activities are more important sides of adolescents' volunteer activities than whether and how many times they had experiences in volunteer activities. Second, the satisfaction with volunteer activities was found to enhance adolescents' self-esteem and peer attachment and the changes in their personal traits again led to a higher sense of community.

The goals of this study were to examine how children's recognition of various emotions, emotion expression, and social interactions among their peers differed according to their attachment styles. A total of 65 three to five years old children completed both attachment story-stem doll plays and a standard emotion recognition task. Trained observers documented children's valence of emotion expression and social interactions among their peers in the classroom. Consistent with attachment theory, children who were categorized as secure in the doll play were more likely to express positive emotions than children who were categorized as avoidant in the doll play. Children who were categorized as avoidant in the doll play were more likely to express neutral emotions among their peers than children who were categorized as secure and anxious in the doll play. The findings of this study contribute to the general attachment literature by documenting how attachment security plays a crucial role in having positive emotions in ordinary situations. It does so by also demonstrating how different attachment styles are associated with children's qualitatively different patterns of emotion processing, especially in terms of their expression of emotions.

배경 및 목적: 이 연구의 목적은 OECD "더 나은 삶의 지수 2015"에서 34개 국가 중 29위로 평가된 한국인의 주관적 건강(subjective well-being)과 치료적 지지(therapeutic support) 관계에서 장소애착(place attachment)의 매개 효과를 탐색하였다. 방법: 비확률 표본추출 방법을 사용하여 서울 시민들 중 헬스클럽 이용자를 대상으로 설문지 조사를 실시하였으며, 구조방정식 모형분석을 통해 가설을 검증하였다. 결과: 분석 결과 치료적 감독(therapeutic oversight )만이 주관적 건강에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다(B = .281, p < .05). 장소애착의 매개효과를 통해서 검증한 결과 치료적 감독 뿐만 아니라 치료적 증언(therapeutic testimonial)에 대해서도 유의하게 검증되었다(치료적 감독 간접 효과 = .155, p < .05, 치료적 증언 간접 효과 = .175, p < .05). 결론: 연구결과 주관적 건강에 영향을 미치는 것으로 장소애착의 매개효과가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 서로를 돌보며 회원들 간의 업적을 축하 할 수 있는 장소를 기반으로 한 건강 프로그램을 실행한다면 사회 구성원들의 주관적 건강 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
