This study identifies and tracks changes gender differences in adolescent users' problematic online behavior. This study used Korea Youth Panel Survey (KYPS), which has tracked respondents over 7 years, with self-control theory and social learning theory applied as a theoretical framework. The model included individual-level variables such as self-control and respondent's experience of problematic behavior (offline), as well as socialization variables such as the number close friends who engaged in problematic offline behavior, parent-child relationships, and parental monitoring. Dependent variables included problematic online behavior, unauthorized ID use (ID theft) and cyberbullying (cursing/insulting someone in a chat room or on a bulletin board). Control variables consisted of academic performance, time spent on a computer, monthly household income, and father's educational attainment. Random and fixed effects models were performed by gender. Results supported self-control theory even for the within-level analysis (fixed effects models) regardless of gender, while social learning theory was partially supported. Only peer effects were found significant (except for unauthorized ID use) among girls. Year dummy variables showed significant negative associations; however, academic performance and time spent using computers were significant in some models. Father's educational attainment and monthly household income were found insignificant, even in the random effects models. We also discuss implications and suggestions for future research and policy makers.

In this paper, we developed a mobile student ID providing a self sovereignty identity (SSI) which replaces the conventional plastic-type student ID that includes private information of a student such as a name, a student number, a facial photo, etc. The implemented mobile student ID solves the problem of exposing student's identity due to a loss or a theft of a plastic-type student ID, and it has a structure and process of FRANCHISE model which is developed by a concept of a decentralized Identity(DID) of a Blockchain, in which specialized for convenience as an electronic student ID through an application on a smart phone device. In addition, it protects student's privacy by controlling personal information on oneself. By using a smartphone, not only it easily identifies the student but also it expands to several services such as participation in school events, online authentication, and a student's exchange program among colleges.

Online game provides a kind of cyber money aden and game instruments, items in order to attract game users. Game users want stronger, better and higher-leveled items with competition. Demands and supplies on items are formed and the transactions are made. The problem is there happen frequently illegal behaviors in the process of transactions. Among these illegal behaviors, for using other's id and password without authorization and stealing items, rejecting to return assigned items, providing stolen item to other who knows the fact or destroying others' items, it is difficult to apply provisions on properties in the criminal code on them. Because the criminal code has a duty to prevent separation between substantial criminal behavior and regulations, it should reflect substantial cultures and values of the times. Therefore, property like items in cyber space can be considered as new property to need to be protect under the criminal code and it may be not an interpretation of expansion. The reason is it is practical and reasonable to judge whether propertiness can be established considering cyber space's unique characteristics. It is time to review propertiness of Article No. 346 according to the request of times of the digital age.
