The present authors had conducted several researches(parking violation, traffic signal violation, speed violation, drunk-driving) on driving behaviors of the Korean people focused on cultural psychological perspective. This paper was designed to summarize these previous results. Although each research had dealt with different violation behaviors on driving, there were lots of similarities on the basis of violation. The results reveal the following rationale for incurring violation behaviors. First, most people reported that they violated the rule to pursuit short-term benefit. Second, the violators' psychological characteristics are described in terms of self-centered and self-justification. In addition, the respondents have justified their violated behaviors since the outcome is disadvantageous for the drivers. Furthermore, the violators' are found to possess a permissive attitude toward the other violators'. Finally, the implications of these studies were proposed. All of these findings were discussed in relation to the Korean culture.

The perceived position of a flashing target object is generally biased towards the direction of eye movement when there is no reference around the target. Current research examined the localization accuracy of a flashing target relative to a static reference. The perceived location of the target relative to the reference was distorted and the pattern of perceptual distortion systematically depended on the position of the reference relative to the target. This kind of result was consistently observed regardless of the distance between the reference and the target and direction of pursuit eye movement. We have discussed how these results could he explained by the theories previously suggested to explain the localization of objects.

This study examined a phenomenon of exaggerated hairstyle in the history of Western custom through publications related with Western costume and research papers. By adopting the criteria of Delong, M. R. to analyze visual forms shown by interaction between human body and costume worn over the body, it analyzed the formative characteristics by the interaction between hairstyle and costume. In addition, it inferred the aesthetic characteristics through content analysis of examined phenomenon focusing on socio-cultural background and costume socio-psychological precedent studies. Formative characteristics of exaggerated hairstyle applied by analysis criteria of Delong, M. R. were in pursuit of the emphasis style. This was clearly and intensively recognized by forming spaces for mostly closure style, part style, three dimensional style, determinate style, and space separation style. Regarding the interaction between hair and ornamentations, 'precedence of ornamentation' was pursued as ornamentations were recognized earlier than the hair itself. It means associative meanings of the surface effect were accompanied by emotions of 'intensiveness' and the pursuit of the attractive style. As for the interaction between hairstyle and costume, there were many cases of pursuing 'continuity' mutually and visually by connecting the hairstyle and the costume. Aesthetic characteristics of exaggerated hairstyle were inferred as 1) the expression of the sprite of the age(i.e. art, culture, politics, society, ideology, religion), 2) symbols of wealth, class, authority, and excellence, 3) pursuit of addicted desire to ornament, and 4) harmony through continuity with costume. This study verified that hairstyle was connected as a part of costume, or formed as a way to express deeper human psychology beyond just a part of a costume. It was also confirmed that hairstyle was an expressive method to express the spirit of the age, such as art, culture, society, religion, ideology.

People differ greatly in their capacity to persist in the face of challenges. Despite significant research, relatively little is known about cognitive factors that might be involved in perseverance. Building upon human threat-management mechanism, we predicted that perseverant people would be characterized by reduced sensitivity (i.e., longer detection latency) to threat cues. Our data from 5,898 job applicants showed that highly perseverant individuals required more time to correctly identify anger in faces, regardless of stimulus type (dynamic or static computer-morphed faces). Such individual differences were not observed in response to other facial expressions (happiness, sadness), and the effect was independent of gender, dispositional anxiety, or conscientiousness. Discussions were centered on the potential role of threat sensitivity in effortful pursuit of goals.

최근의 연구에서 Li. Brenner, Cornelissen과 Kim (2002)은 추적 눈 운동 동안의 2차원 모양지각이 망막에 형성된 이미지 내용을 그대로 반영한다는 것을 보여 주었는데, 이러한 연구는 2차원 모양판단에 있어서 눈 운동 정보가 전혀 고려되지 않았음을 시사한다. 이와 같은 실험실 연구와 달리, 실제 생활에서 2차원 모양지각의 왜곡은 대부분의 경우에 발생하지 않는데, 가능한 한 가지 이유는 실험실 연구에서 사용된 자극의 경우에 참조대상이 존재하지 않는데 비하여, 실제 생활에서는 다양한 참조대상이 목표대상의 주변에 존재하기 때문이다. 목표대상과 참조대상의 상대적인 위치관계는 추적 눈 운동 동안에 망막에서도 그대로 유지되는데 시각체계가 이러한 안정적인 관계를 목표 대상의 모양을 지각할 때에 이용할 가능성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 참조대상을 이용하여 이러한 가능성을 검증하였다. 특히, 피험자의 눈 운동을 눈 운동 측정기를 이용하여 측정하였으며, 적절한 눈 운동을 수행한 시행에서의 데이터만 분석에 사용하였다.

The purpose of this study was to have a phenomenological understanding of the experiences in the marital relationship after the first baby is born. For this purpose, thirteen couples (marriage duration of less than five years; within three years of the child birth) were recruited and semi-structured interviews were conducted. The interview data were analyzed through the open coding, axial coding, and selective coding. In the next step, we derived the marital relationship paradigm after the first baby arrived. The causal/situational conditions that caused changes in the marital relationship were the parenting burden and the marital adjustment level. The central phenomena were parenting and housework burden, which were moderated by the husbands' support. The action/interaction strategies were couple's high awareness and acceptance for their new role and pursuit of the shared meaning of the family. When the strategies were successful, a deeply satisfying feeling and shared values could be obtained. Finally, we identified the core category to integrate of other categories into a conceptual framework, and that is 'the awareness and acceptance for their new role and the pursuit of a sense of We-ness'.
