An insider threat is a threat that comes from people within the organization being attacked. It can be described as a function of the motivation, opportunity, and capability of the insider. Compared to managing the dimensions of opportunity and capability, assessing one's motivation in committing malicious acts poses more challenges to organizations because it usually involves a more obtrusive process of psychological examination. The existing body of research in psycholinguistics suggests that automated text analysis of electronic communications can be an alternative for predicting and detecting insider threat through unobtrusive behavior monitoring. However, a major challenge in employing this approach is that it is difficult to minimize the risk of missing any potential threat while maintaining an acceptable false alarm rate. To deal with the trade-off between the risk of missed catches and the false alarm rate, we propose a unified psycholinguistic framework that consolidates multiple text analyzers to carry out sentiment analysis, emotion analysis, and topic modeling on electronic communications for unobtrusive psychological assessment. The user scenarios presented in this paper demonstrated how the trade-off issue can be attenuated with different text analyzers working collaboratively to provide more comprehensive summaries of users' psychological states.

Listening comprehension is an integrative and creative process of interaction through which listeners receive speakers' production of linguistic or non-linguistic knowledge. Compared with reading comprehension, it may arouse difficulties and thus impose more burdens on foreign learners. The Audio-Lingual Method focused primarily on speaking. Mimicry, repetition, rote memory, and transformation drills actually interfered with listening comprehension. So learners lost interest and were not highly motivated. Improving listening comprehension requires continual attentiveness and interest. Listening skill can be extended systematically only when students are frequently exposed to a wide range of listening materials with an affective, cultural, social, and psycholinguistic approach. Therefore, teachers should help students learn how to comprehend intactly the overall meaning of intended messages. The literature on teaching listening skill suggests various useful activities: TPR, dictation, role playing, singing, picture recognition, completion, prediction, seeking specific information, summarizing, labeling, humor, jokes, cartoons, media, and so on. Practical classroom teaching necessitates a systematic procedure in which students should take part in meaningful tasks/activities. In addition to this, learners must practice listening comprehension trough a self-study process.

Listening comprehension is an integrative and creative process of interaction through which listeners receive speakers' production of linguistic or non-linguistic knowledge. Improving listening comprehension requires continual attentiveness and interest. .Listening skill can be extended systematically only when students are frequently exposed to a wide range of listening materials with an affective, cultural, social, and psycholinguistic approach. Therefore, teachers should help students learn how to comprehend intactly the overall meaning of intended messages. Practical classroom teaching necessitates a systematic procedure in which students should take part in meaningful tasks and activities. This study purposes to investigate the effects of task-based listening comprehension instruction on improvement of EFL learners' listening comprehension and their attitude and interest. 74 freshmen who enrolled in College English conversation classes in Kongju National University participated in this study. The participants were administered listening comprehension tests and questionnaires. The results show that the listening comprehension instruction through tasks and activities has a positive impact on EFL learners' improvement of listening comprehension and their attitude and interest toward the target language as well.

심리언어학적 접근에 기반한 말처리 모델은 다양한 경로를 통해 말소리장애아동의 구체적인 말처리 결함을 한눈에 파악할 수 있는 모델이다. 말소리장애아동이 보이는 말산출 결함은 원인을 알 수 없는 경우가 대부분이기 때문에 개별화된 중재를 위해서는 기저의 강약점을 파악하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 말소리장애 아동의 모국어 결함은 외국어 산출에도 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문에 모국어와 외국어라는 두 언어 간 말처리 능력을 함께 살펴볼 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 한국어-영어 말처리 평가시스템 개발을 위한 예비연구로, 말소리장애아동(SSD) 10명과 일반아동(NSA) 20명을 대상으로 말산출 과제와 말처리 과제(변별, 음운표상판단, 비단어따라말하기)를 한국어와 영어로 각각 실시하여 언어종류에 따른 집단 간 비교를 시도하였다. 연구 결과, SSD 집단은 두 언어에서 모두 NSA 집단에 비해 유의하게 낮은 산출능력을 보였다. 말처리 과제 결과, 변별과제에서는 유의한 차이를 보이지 않은 반면, 음운표상판단과제의 경우 언어 종류 간, 비단어따라말하기과제의 경우 언어종류와 집단 간에서도 그 차이가 유의하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 아동의 모국어와 외국어 처리능력은 상이할 수 있으며, 추후 말처리 평가 프로그램 개발을 위해 하위과제를 보다 세분화하고 난이도를 조절할 필요가 있음을 확인하였다.
