  • The main purpose of this dissertation is a introductive proposal to reconstruct confucian moral principles. The most classical question in moral principles is : what is the good. In order to reconstruct confucian moral principles, this dissertation begin with question of what is the good in confucian moral principles. Confucianism believe in reality of the human good mind and good nature. Confucian the human good mind and good nature is comprised of benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom. Benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom(四德) is the origin of morality. Confucian's moral principles of human relationship is none other than conscientiousness and altruism. Conscientiousness is a principle of self-cultivation and self-revelation. As to altruism, confucious said, "the man of perfect virtue, wishing to be established himself", or "do not impose on others what you do not desire others to impose upon you." Altruism is rectified as a principle of reciprocity methodology of the making of whole kingdom peaceful in The Great Learning. Confucian golden rule(conscientiousness and altruism is equal to Kantian categorical imperative in The Fundamental principles of Metaphysics of Ethics. : Act only on that maxim through which you can at the same time will that it should become a universal law ... etc. Kant's three principles of moral philosophy(Categorical Imperatives) imply that the idea of universality, freedom, and the kingdom of ends. We contrast confucian moral principles with Kant's three principles of Categorical Imperatives. In conclusion, confucian moral principles implicate Kant's principle of universalizability and impartiality.

  • 지식 정보화 사회에서 지식경영의 중요성이 부각되면서, 학계의 다양한 연구와 기업의 의욕적인 투자가 진행되어 왔다. 그러나 지식경영과 관련된 기존 연구들은 다음의 한계점을 드러내고 있다. 즉 기존의 연구는 조직 내 구성원의 관계와 같은 구조적인 부분에 한정되어 지식경영의 주체인 개인의 개성(personality)에 대한 고려가 부족하고, 또한 구성원들의 동기를 고취시키기 위해 경쟁을 유도하는 환경이 지식공유에 주는 부정적인 영향을 간과하고 있다. 따라서 본 논문은 첫째, '개인간의 관계를 바탕으로 한 지식 공유에 있어서 자존감(Self-esteem)과 성취지향성(Conscientiousness)이 어떠한 영향을 주는가?', 둘째, '경쟁을 장려하는 것이 지식공유에 도움이 되는가?' 라는 문제에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 본 연구에서 KAIST 테크노경영대학원의 특정 수업의 수강생 32명을 대상으로 쌍방관계 데이터(dyadic relational data)를 수집하여 다중회귀분석(multiple regression Analysis)을 수행한 결과, 자존감은 개인간의 지식공유에 음의 조절변수(negative moderator)로 작용할 것이라는 가설이 지지되었고, 성취지향성은 개인간의 지식공유에 있어서 양의 조절변수(positive moderator)로 작용할 것이라는 가설은 지지되지 않았다. 마지막으로 조직 내의 경쟁이 심화될수록 개인간의 지식공유는 감소할 것이라는 가설은 지지되었다. 본 연구는 기존의 연구들과는 달리, 자존감이 높은 인재에 대한 보다 새로운 시각이 필요하다는 점과 경쟁을 장려하는 지식 경영 방법론에 대한 재고가 필요하다는 것을 실증적으로 보여주고 있다.

  • Four hundred and thirty-five Chinese smokers who had attended the first smoking cessation clinic and received stage-matched individualized cessation counseling in Hong Kong during the period of August 2000 to January 2002 were successfully followed-up between February and August 2008. Some 38% of the participants (165/495) had stopped smoking during the 12-month follow-up after treatment. Participants with higher conscientiousness score (OR = 1.65, 95% CI: 1.09 - 2.48) and lower openness to experience score (OR = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.45 - 0.92) showed a greater likelihood of quitting smoking after controlling the effect of daily cigarettes smoked and stage of readiness at baseline. The study suggests an important role of conscientiousness and openness to experience on long-term quitting behaviors following treatment, and provides useful information for the development of matched intervention for smoking cessation among Chinese smokers.
