  • This study explores how the patriarchal system instigates violence through the use of a lottery in "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson and a reaping in The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. To maintain its validity, the patriarchal system makes people internalize the principle of homicide in everyday life. One of the effective ways to sustain the patriarchal system is to develop the gender concept clearly. In "The Lottery," traditional gender segregation results in the construction of a homogeneous community supported by patriarchal concepts. On the other hand, The Hunger Games shows how Katniss Everdeen, the main character, experiences the different gender roles and norms according to the specific surroundings like her hometown (the 12th district), Capitol (the capital of Panem), and finally the Hunger Games stadium, where she has to kill others to survive. In the end, Katniss both becomes a political entity through playing gender performance supported by Judith Butler.

  • Various current events provide evidence that society is undergoing changes in perceptions of social relationships. Specifically, visual media in the form of advertisements can convey images which reflect society's values and concepts about role relationships. The purpose of this research was to examine ads in fashion magazines to determine what types of model roles and role relationships typically appear in fashion advertising which can mirror society's values. A content analysis was conducted of ads obtained from US Vogue and US GQ for the year 2002. Six kinds of roles/relationships were found: (1) Narcissism (representing self absorption), (2) sexually enticing opposite-sex relationships, (3) close/romantic same-sex relationships, (4) friend relationships, (5) family relationships, and (6) independent relationships. Of these, narcissism predominated, however, a small number of sexually provocative ads appeared as well as same-sex romantic relationships. Because sole (single) models were more typical, they also were examined to determine ways in which they relate to the audience. Characteristics examined included body presentation & pose, eye gaze, and facial expression. Direct eye gaze was the typical way to engage the audience. Gender differences were apparent: smiling was more typical of women, indifference for men. The symbolic meaning and values investigated from this research are the blurring of gender identity portrayed in homosexual imagery, family values, and the value of youth. The consistency of models' race in ads does not portray the diversity reflected in the demographic census.

  • This study explored the understanding of health of people from Korea. Data were collected from a total of eighteen focus groups: Koreans (living in Korea), Korean-Australians, Korean-Americans and Australians. The data were analysed using QSR NUD*IST. The meaning of health varied among people and it was related to differences in age, culture, gender, marital status and perceived health status of individuals. However, there were several themes common to everybody. All groups included aspects of physical, mental, emotional (and spiritual), environmental and social dimensions in their definitions of health. All young single groups placed more emphasis on physical and lifestyle factors whereas mental and emotional aspects and social responsibility were more associated with health among older married groups. Young women in all cultures felt social pressure to 'look good' and the media was perceived as responsible. Men in general associated health with societal roles and social competition. Health was strongly associated with the economy and economic stability for all Korean groups reflecting the recent adverse economic situation in Korea. This information will be of value to health professionals to provide more effective health services and health promotion programs for clients of Korean ethnicity living in multicultural societies like Australia and America.

  • Modernity is commonly defined as a reflection of the features of modern society based on the historical experience of the West. As such, modernity includes involvement with political, economic, and social changes, a changing world-view, and changing trends in equality, gender roles, a desire for "the new," consumption, distribution based on mass production, and rational reform in fashion and dress. First and foremost, however, modernity in costume has been driven by the functional requirements of industrial capitalism. But while modernity has popularly been regarded as some sort of universal standard, in fact the West and the other societies have vastly different, unique, and particular experiences with their own respective histories of modernization. For this reason, cultural changes in the modernization process should be-indeed, must be-analyzed in the context of a country's own unique historical and cultural circumstances, rather than through the prism or strict adaptation of generalized Western concepts of modernization. Moreover, a "periodization" of the modernization of fashion and dress can be established by examining the characteristics of modernity in costume.

대순사상의 남녀평등이념과 여성성 재조명 - 여성해원의 원리로 본 공덕과 실천을 중심으로 - (Reviewing the Concept of Gender Equality and Femininity in Daesoon Thought: Focusing on Meritorious Deeds and Implementing a Practice on the Based on the Resolution of Grievances for Women)

  • 본 연구의 목적은 대순사상에 입각한 여성성(女性性)과 외부담론인 페미니즘(Feminism) 이론을 통해 여성과 여성성에 대한 개념 및 그 역할의 의미와 가치를 재조명해보고자 하는 데 있다. 특히 남녀평등 이념을 실현하는 과정에서 대순사상의 여성해원(女性解冤)과 관련하여 여성으로서의 공덕(功德)과 이를 위한 실천적 부분에 대해 집중적으로 살핌으로써 여성해원의 적극적이고 바람직한 역할을 도출하고자 한다. 그럼으로써 상극(相克)의 세계를 상생(相生)의 세계로, 억음존양(抑陰尊陽)의 상황이 낳은 갈등을 정음정양(正陰正陽)할 수 있는 길을 모색하고자 한다. 1세대 페미니즘은 평등 지향 논리로 요약될 수 있다. 이를 대순사상과 관련시켜 볼 때, 남녀를 떠나서 완전한 인간완성을 이루고자 한다면 여성의 입장에서 보았을 때 대순사상에서 제시하는 가장 이상적인 여성상은 여성도통군자(女性道通君子)일 것이다. 후천에서는 남성과 여성의 구별이 없이 노력한 만큼의 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 도의 이치에 대한 깨달음, 즉 음양의 이치를 깨달은 상태에서는 남성과 여성의 구별이 무의미하며 남녀 모두 '도통군자(道通君子)'에 다름 아닌 것이다. 따라서 페미니즘 1세대의 평등이념과 여성해원 사상은 그 개념 구사의 유사성에도 불구하고 평등의 이념이 도달하고자 하는 차원이 명백히 구별되는 논의라고 할 것이다. 2세대 페미니즘의 대표적 논증은 '배려'라는 여성적 특질의 강조이다. 대순사상에서 이와 관련되는 개념은 자모지정(慈母之情)이다. 그런데 자모지정은 비단 여성만이 가지는 덕도 아니고 어머니인 사람만이 가지는 덕이 아니라 '음덕(陰德)'이라고 하는 '음(陰)'의 가치이다. 자모지정은 자신을 적극적으로 내세우는 것이 아니라 낮추고 타인의 뜻을 이루도록 돕는 실천 영역을 지칭하며, 음(陰)이라는 원리의 환유적 차원인 '여성성'과 닿아있는 가치이다. 이를 사회적으로 확산시키는 과정 중에 하나로써 중요한 것이 포덕이라고 할 수 있으며, 이러한 포덕을 통해 화(和)를 이끌어내면 '정음정양'이라는 도가 실현된 평(平)의 상태에 도달할 수 있는 것이다. 그리고 이 평의 차원은 정음정양이 실현된 우주적 과정이기 때문에 단순히 사회에서의 평등 구현이라는 페미니즘, 혹은 다수의 이데올로기들의 세간적 차원의 목표와 명백한 차이를 가지고 있다. 상극의 시대인 선천에서 상생의 시대인 후천으로 나아감에 있어서 '평(平)'의 원리와 '화(和)'의 원리를 부단히 실천해가야 한다는 논리를 제시한다고도 볼 수 있는 대순사상의 관점에서 그 출발점에 있는 '화(和)'와 '포덕(布德)'의 관계성과 그 가치에 대한 강조가 중요하다고 할 때 대순사상의 실현은 '자모지정'이라는 여성적 가치의 활성화에 그 출발점이 있다고 밝힐 수 있다.

  • This study aims to study the discourses influencing high school students' concept and attitude toward mathematics, and to examine how gender differences concerning mathematical aptitude are created. This study is based on the results of previous two studies which suggested that mathematical competence differs not only according to gender, region and school year, but also even within the same gender. For this study, 12 students ranking in the top 10% at two co-ed high schools were interviewed to find out 1) what discourses are related to gender and mathematics, 2) in what way these discourses are formulated and gain currency, and 3) how they have affected students in general. Common notions concerning mathematics may be summed up as follows: 1) Most of the students believe that gender difference in mathematical aptitude results because biologically men tend to be strong in mathematics and analytical skills while women tend to have better linguistic ability. This concept can help male students' studying to have a greater learning toward mathematics. 2) A large number of the students believe that male students' studying method is based on comprehension whereas female students' method is based on retention, and hence the former group tends to be better at applying their learning than the latter group. This notion seres to encourage male students and discourage female students from tackling difficult mathematical problems. 3) Many students believe that, although female students may surpass their male counterparts in middle school or the first year of high school, they will eventually fall behind by the 3rd year. Despite research which shows that these common beliefs are not grounded in scientific proof, high-school girls, who may be strong in mathematics, lose self-confidence and feel a sense of crisis. The mechanisms which produce and reinforce such concepts as those mentioned above can be summarized as follows: 1) Regarding the choice of majors and future career paths, parents show different attitudes toward sons and daughters, and this tends to influence high-school girls and hinders them from entering mathematics-related fields. 2) Teachers with value systems based on stereo-typed gender roles affect students a great deal, and give different advice according to gender of their students, for selecting their major fields - for instance, whether to study the natural sciences as opposed to humanities. 3) This study indicates that peer-group behavior, of either support or exclusion, also reinforces the process of internalizing notions of gender difference related to mathematical aptitude. 4) The gender-based notion that men are naturally more inclined to have better mathematical ability has caused male students to choose the natural science subjects and female students to turn to the humanities. The discourses discussed above, propagated in schools and homes, and in the mass media, are continually reinforced along with general gender inequalities in the society at large.

  • At the dawn of the 20th century, Southeast Asian female poets increasingly delved into introspective reflections on gender, giving rise to a heightened self-awareness in their artistic contemplations. This shift in perspective brought forth numerous crucial topics for discussion, such as the historical role of female poets, women's experiences, feminine language, female voices, and female identity. The exploration of language has empowered female poets to discover a "third space" that allows them to exist and eliminate the pervasive gaps of women in Southeast Asia, creating social changes, fostering concepts of feminine culture, and establishing progressive social institutions. Marjorie Evasco (1953-) and Dư Thị Hoàn (1947 - ) are exemplary representatives of contemporary Southeast Asian women's poetry due to their significant artistic contributions and pivotal roles in promoting feminist literature in their respective countries. This study compares their poetic works, focusing on three crucial aspects: self-awareness of femininity and feminism as an identity autonomy, writing between two languages to express their identities, and constructing the image of mother and motherhood from personal and historical perspectives. Hence, the article highlights that Southeast Asian female poets, throughout different historical contexts, persistently forge their identities and strive for equal footing with men in society. Also, their invaluable contributions have significantly enriched the feminist literary tradition in Asia.

  • 본 연구는 고등학교 학교부적응 학생을 대상으로 예비부모교육 프로그램을 실시하고 그 효과를 알아보는 데 있다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위하여 여성가족부에서 개발한 청소년 대상 예비부모교육 프로그램 17차시 중 9차시를 일부 수정하여 제주도 일반계 고등학교 대안교실에 참여하는 학생 10명에게 실시하였다. 예비부모교육의 참여는 관찰과 면담을 통해 학교부적응 학생들의 자아개념 및 가족가치관의 긍정적 변화와 피임, 기초 돌봄, 자녀발달단계별 부모의 역할의 변화 필요성에 대한 정보획득, 의사소통 및 감정조절에 대한 문제해결능력이 향상되었음을 알 수 있었다. 이에 여성가족부에서 개발한 예비부모교육프로그램은 부모로부터 정서적 지원과 올바른 양육환경에서 자라지 못한 경우가 많은 학교부적응 학생들에게 올바른 부모역할 수행에 도움을 주어 개인에게는 삶에 대한 만족도를 높이고 사회적으로는 학대의 대물림을 방지하여 가정의 건강성을 높이는 데 도움을 줄 것으로 보인다. 더불어 학교부적응 학생의 긍정적인 신념의 변화와 의사소통 및 감정조절 등의 문제해결능력의 향상은 학생의 학교생활의 적응력을 향상시키는 결과를 가져와 학교부적응 학생 예비부모교육 수업은 효과적인 학업중단예방 프로그램으로서 활용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

  • Mobile games have emerged as the most innovative entertainment technology, adding new revenue streams, taking advantage of the potential of wireless applications and service offerings. Mobile games, like any other types of computer game, offer a unique value for users in providing an exciting digital experience in virtual worlds. Players can become empowered through the development of new characters and strategies within games to achieve rewarding successes against the computers and other players. The overall trend for mobile games is towards bigger, more colorful, more involving and exciting contents, which will build upon the developing capabilities of mobile phones and networks in order to bring new styles, concepts and experiences of game play to the users. In this paper, we attempt to investigate the demographic factors which play critical roles in determining the level of playing times; classify mobile gamers based on their motives for playing games; and empirically test differences in their demographic factors and mobile game usage. Statistical results show that significant differences in playing times exist, depending upon their age, gender, mobile device, mobile phone usage, mobile game experiences, and preferred games genres. Applying Factor analysis, we have identified Escape, Social interaction, Challenge and Competition, Fantasy, Diversion and Relaxation, Ease of Accessibility as key motivators for playing mobile games. Additional cluster analysis shows that the categorization of gamers, according to their usage habits and the key motivators for playing, can be made as follows: M-gamers, Multi-gamers and Communication-focused gamers. Further correlation of these grouping with socio-economic data shows the significant differences in gaming habits and patterns of mobile phone use.
