The purpose of this study was to investigate young children's play preferences through observation at their classrooms and to examine the relationship between children's play preferences and their peer competence and peer acceptance. The subjects were 55 four-year-old children from a kindergarten in C city of Chungnam province. The data was analyzed by MANOVA, t-test, and Pearson's correlation. The results were as follows: first, boys and girls showed different play preferences except for language play and science play. Boys were better liked by same-sex peers while girls were better liked by other-sex peers. Second, there were significant correlations among certain play preferences. Block play preferences were negatively correlated with other play preferences. Third, some play preferences were significantly associated with some sub-dimensions of peer competence. Language play displayed a positive relationship to pro-social behavior, but art play showed a negative relationship to leadership. Finally, peer acceptance was positively correlated only with number/manipulation play preferences. Other-sex peer acceptance was positively correlated with number/manipulation play preferences and art play preferences but negatively with block play preferences.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships among mothers' play beliefs, children's gender and home play frequency, and their preferences for three types of play. Methods: Totally 256 mothers of 5-year-olds participated in the survey in metropolitan area. Data were analyzed with t-test, Pearson's correlations, and stepwise multi-regression using SPSS 22.0. Results: First, boys and girls showed little difference in their home play experiences. Boys preferred active and rough play, while girls preferred quiet play. Second, mothers' play beliefs and children's home play frequency had partial correlations with children's play preferences. Third, predictors of children's play preferences were influenced by the types of play. Children's gender and mothers' play beliefs affected children's preference for active play. Only gender explained children's preference for rough play. Finally, children's gender, home play frequency, and mothers' play beliefs influence children's preference for quiet play. Conclusion: In conclusion, gender is an important factor of children's play preferences, and mothers' play beliefs and children's home play frequency affect their preferences for a specific type of play.

음악의 생산과 수요 증가와 함께 사용자의 장치에 저장되어 있는 음악을 관리하기 위한 관심 또한 증가하고 있다. 일반적으로 사용자는 음악을 효과적으로 관리하기 위해 재생 목록을 작성하고 이를 선택하는 방법을 사용하고 있다. 하지만 현재 사용되는 재생 목록의 작성 방법은 음악을 사용자가 직접 선택해야 하는 한계를 안고 있다. 따라서 재생 목록을 자동으로 작성하여 사용자에게 제공해주는 방법이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 사용자의 음악사용의 상황과 취향을 고려하여 자동으로 재생 목록을 생성해주는 시스템을 제안한다. 이 시스템은 음악적 무드 (Musical mood) 분류 시스템과 음악 추천 시스템, 두 가지 별개의 시스템으로 구성되어 있다. 사용자는 음악을 추천 받기 위해 단지 하나의 음악을 선택한다. 그러면 시스템은 자동으로 재생 목록을 생성하기 위해 선택된 음악과 유사한 무드의 음악을 재생 목록에 추가한다. 사용자는 재생 목록에 추가된 음악 중 자신의 취향에 맞지 않는 음악을 제거하여 취향에 적합한 음악을 반복적으로 추천 받을 수 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 시스템의 실험과 평가를 위해 실제 음악을 수집하였으며 시스템을 통해 생성된 재생 목록을 분석하여 사용자의 취향이 보다 정확히 반영된 것을 확인하였다.

본 연구는 놀이와 웃음활동을 인성교육과 접목하여 프로그램을 구안하고자 초등학교 5, 6학년 학생들을 대상으로 놀이(규칙놀이 영역, 전통놀이 영역, 보드게임 영역), 웃음활동, 디지털 게임의 실태와 선호도를 설문조사하였다. 학생들의 선호도는 보드게임 영역에서 가장 높았고, 그 다음으로 디지털 게임, 규칙놀이 영역, 전통놀이 영역, 웃음활동 순으로 나타났다. 규칙놀이 영역에서는 그룹놀이를 가장 선호했고, 전통놀이 영역에서는 윷놀이를 가장 선호하였다. 보드게임 영역에서는 7세 이상 대상 2연령의 보드게임을 가장 선호하였고, 디지털 게임은 모바일 게임을 가장 선호하였다. 따라서 초등학생들에게 양질의 놀이 교육 프로그램을 개발할 때에는 학생들의 놀이 실태를 잘 파악하고 성별에 따라 선호도가 다름을 이해하는 등 놀이의 특성을 고려하는 것이 매우 중요하다고 사료된다.

Just as costumes reflect the spirit of the time, hair styles echo the social changes and even facilitate them, being used as a means of communication. In short, hair styles reflect the cultural life of the time dynamically. In our modern times, fashion is moving very fast, and such a phenomenon is more conspicuous in hair styles. While individuals are eager to pursue their own individuality, hair styles play a leading role in fashion, excelling the costumes. In this sense, we need to note that hair styles may be related with individual, social and psychological factors. As people are more interested in hair colors, the scope of hair color selection becomes wider. People visit beauty shops to have their hair colors changes rather than have their hairs cut. Selection of a hair color seems to be deeply related with individuals' psychological states. Since hair colors have much effects on their facial images, hair designers need to have an empathy with their customers. Each person has his or her own unique image, and his/her selection of hair colors is affected much by external environment as well as his/her traits. With such basic assumptions in mind, this study was aimed at analyzing the preferences of hair colors by those in their 20's, 30's and 40's who are more interested in their hair colors. To this end, their preferences of or tendencies for hair colors were surveyed by sex, age group and job.

The purpose of this study was to identify the perceptual learning style preferences of 97 Korean EFL students in middle school. Furthermore, it examined if students' learning styles varied in terms of gender and grade level. Data was collected by using Reid's (1987) PLSPQ and a personal background questionnaire and was analyzed by using descriptive statistics, MANOVA, ANOVA, and t-test. The results revealed that subjects had all six major learning styles but among them, auditory, group, and visual styles were the most preferred by them. The results found in this study, presented that Korean EFL middle school students favored learning English through listening, reading and working in groups and that younger students preferred learning through physical involvement and practicum. The findings of this study provide a number of useful insights for EFL and ESL educators and instructors in Korea. The current study suggests that a great number of variables such as culture, learning situation of the target country, age, and grade level can all play important roles in shaping the learning preferences and the learning styles of students. Considering these variables and promoting a curriculum that is interesting, appealing and successful may help maximize student L2 learning.

This study investigated the effects of mothers' nutritional attitudes and knowledge on their children's obesity inducing factors： eating habits, food preferences, food frequencies, and physical activities. The subjects were 774 mothers and their elementary school children (774) in Busan. About thirty percent of the children had a tendency toward obesity as a result of their eating habits, food preferences, food frequencies, and physical activities, but their mothers' nutritional attitudes and knowledge had little affect on their children's obesity inducing factors. Though the children were interested in their body weight changes, they chose not to practice appropriate eating habits. Thus, education about good eating habits and appropriate physical activities should be promoted for children's health and growth. Because the mothers' nutritional attitudes and knowledge had little affect on their children in this study, nutrition education in school needs to be enhanced. However, because mothers play many roles in their children's habit and health, they also need to be educated in order that their nutritional attitudes and knowledge help their children's health and growth directly. And school and home should be more closely connected.
