본 논문은 명상을 하고 명상일지를 작성하면 알아차림에 어떠한 효과가 있는지를 구체적으로 밝히는 것이 목적이다． 명상에서 경험했던 사건을 명상일지 작성 방식에 따라 단계별로 기술하는 방법으로 67회 반복하여 기록한 사례들을 분석하였다. 작성된 기록들의 의미에 따라 질병 및 건강, 대인관계, 심리적 불안, 직업 및 기타 주제어로 분류하고 각각 사성제의 고(苦), 집(集), 멸(滅), 도(道)에 따라 명상 내용들이 어떠한 의미와 변화를 가져 오는 지를 탐색하여 기술하였다. 선행연구 42편을 수집하여 본 연구의 목적과 유사한 것을 선별하여 탐구하였다. 선행 연구에 따르면 명상에 관한 이론과 연구는 많이 보고되고 일지 작성이 원하는 목적에 유익하다는 연구결과는 다수 발견되었지만 명상의 효과가 어떻게 높아지는 데에 관한 구체적인 연구는 미흡하였고 이에 명상일지를 작성하여 알아차림에 구체적으로 어떤 변화를 일으키고 유익함을 가져 오는지를 밝혀 본 것이 타 연구와의 차별이라 하겠다. 명상일지 작성이 알아차림의 효과를 높여 명상 수행을 진작하는 방편이 된다면 일반화되기 쉬울 것이다. 명상일지를 작성하여 효과를 높이는 다양한 연구가 촉진 될 것이고 초보자들의 명상 생활화와 대중화 되는 기반이 될 수 있다는 점이 본 논문의 목적이 되겠다

This study explores sustainability education in textile and apparel (T&A) programs in U.S. higher education institutions. Specifically, the researchers study whether more courses with sustainability focus are offered in higher-ranked institutions and explore whether sustainability is taught more in specific T&A related subject fields. Content analysis was conducted for 3,200 courses found in online course catalogs or the course information sites of 69 institutions. Institutions were selected from the 2015 rankings of the top 50 fashion design and top 50 fashion merchandising schools in the US on www.fashion-schools.org. All cases were coded by two coders with a Cohen’s Kappa score of 97.5%, indicating good interrater reliability. Coded data were analyzed through descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and t-tests. The findings show that sustainability is being integrated into the curricula and across courses of T&A programs in the U.S. Over half of the institution surveyed offered at least one sustainability embedded course. Higher ranked institutions provided more sustainability- related courses than power-ranked institutions. A natural match between the subject field and specific sustainability theme was observed (e.g., cultural diversity in history/culture and social psychology/education; recycle/reuse in textile science; sustainability in fashion design; social responsibility and ethics in industry/consumer). The need to introduce sustainability in courses holistically is discussed, whereby sustainability within the industry supply chain is examined in a connected way.

This study was designed to investigate luxury brand co-value creation. A mixed method approach was used to 1) identify encounter attributes of value co-creation, consumer value and brand value and 2) examine the relationships among encounter attributes, consumer value, brand value, and purchase intention to explain the process of value co-creation.

The study investigates the validity of ‘subjecthood diagnostics’ in Korean proposed in the previous studies. Based on the studies on subjecthood diagnostics in Korean Single Subject Constructions (non-MSCs) and Multiple Subject Constructions (MSCs), the role of two subjecthood diagnostics―Honorific Agreement (HA) and Plural Copying (PC)―in these two constructions are examined through an empirical syntactic experiment. Seventy Korean native speakers participated in the experiment using acceptability judgment task designed to probe their intuition. The results show (i) that in the Non-MSCs, Honorific Agreement (HA) reliably seems to choose the subject (i.e., the only Nom-marked NP), whereas Plural Copying (PC) does not seem to pick out the subject in a less consistent manner; and (ii) that in the MSCs, neither Honorific Agreement (HA) nor Plural Copying (PC) seems to be a reliable subjecthood diagnostic. Possible reasons for these results are discussed.
