Smart healthcare clothing combines IoT, new technology, and clothing construction to perform specific care functions, and its utility has been expanding rapidly within aging and diversified societies. However, the related market remains at an early stage of development due to limited regulation, lack of consumer awareness, and the need for not only technical development but promotion plans for potential users. This paper aims to analyze factors influencing purchase intention for smart healthcare clothing with biosignal monitoring, including variables in the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), clothing attributes, health-related lifestyle factors, and fashion innovativeness. A survey was conducted on a sample of 300 males and 300 females ranging in age from 20 to 50 years, and data were analyzed using SPSS 21.0. The results show that perceived usefulness, perceived aesthetic attributes, health responsibility, and fashion innovativeness were overall significant predictors of using smart healthcare clothing. Additionally, perceived ease of use and physical activity in the male subsample, and perceived compatibility within the female group, also had significant effects. Furthermore, age was a determining factor; for subjects in the 30s age group, perceived usefulness, compatibility, and health responsibility had significant positive associations. The results of this study can provide basic guidelines for designing merchandising plans to expand user acceptance of smart healthcare clothing.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships among recognition, preference, and purchasing characteristics for Changnyeong onions and garlic as well as festival satisfaction among participants at agricultural product festivals in the Changnyeong region. Results showed that festival satisfaction of ‘place of festival’ was highest while ‘convenience facility & event contents’ earned the lowest scores. Most subjects (90.5%) had purchased Changnyeong agricultural and processed products. A major purchasing type was fresh agricultural products (66.7%). The pathways to recognize Changnyeong agricultural products were mostly ‘promotion by related institutions’ (22.0%), ‘family · relatives’ (20.8%), ‘mass media’ (16.6%), and ‘festivals and events’ (16.1%). The most considered factors for purchasing regional products were ‘geographical origin’ and ‘ingredients’. Changnyeong onion showed higher scores for recognition and preference and rate of purchase experience and intention than for garlic. The correlation coefficients of recognition and preference for onion and galic were 0.603 (p<0.001) and 0.598 (p<0.001), respectively. The explanation power (R2) of related variables for purchase of Changnyeong onions was 0.258. The regression coefficients (β) for ‘recognition’, ‘preference’ and ‘convenient facility & event contents’ were positive, whereas the regression coefficient for ‘price’ was negative. Recognition, preference, and convenient facility & event contents with garlic purchase showed a positive relationship (R2=0.253). The most effective promotion method to increase sales of Changnyeong agricultural products was ‘local festivals and events’ (27.8%).

In this paper, Korean's dining-out behaviors were compared and investigated according to gender and age. The change and the problem of dietary pattern in Korea were understood and we intend to provide the basic information for guidelines of Korean's dietary habits. The subjects are composed of 46.5% male and 53.5% female. According to age, groups aged 10~19 are 26.3%, 20's are 24.6%, 30's are 16.8%, 40's are 18.7%, and 50 and over age group is 13.6%. All of the age groups ate out for celebration of a special day or for social purposes. When dining-out, the most important criteria for selecting a restaurant was the taste of food. All age groups liked Korean-style restaurants the most. All age group eat a house meal at breakfast. At lunch, age groups 40 and below go to a restaurant in school or company and 50 and over age group eats house meal. In general, all age groups ate a house meal at dinner. At breakfast, all the age groups do not eat out. For lunch, they eat out four or five times a week. For dinner, the most of age groups except the 20's eat out two or three times a month and for the 20's age group, two or three times a week. The reason for selecting a Korean-style restaurant is that the food is 'well matched with one's appetite'. According to the above results, the dietary habits of 30 and over age groups are relatively good. On the other hand, in 10's and 20's age groups, they have an irregular meal and the ratio of skipping a meal is high. And they frequently use fast-food restaurants. In the future, the unbalance of nutrition in these age groups is expected. Therefore, the correct nutritional facts should be educated so that these age groups have a healthy dietary habit.

오늘날 유아들은 성장함에 따라 신체적인 발달과 함께 인지력, 지적능력, 사고력 등 많은 능력이 발달하고 있다. 이 시기에 유아들의 상상력과 사고력을 자극할 수 있는 새로운 경험이 그들이 사용하는 놀이기구나 완구를 통하여 이루어진다, 이에, 부모는 유아들에게 지적능력이 높은 완구의 제공과 함께 성별, 연령별 그에 적합한 인지발달에 도움을 주는 완구를 선택해 주어야 한다. 또한, 이를 근거로 지적능력 사고력이 높은 완구개발에 기초로 활용하고자 한다. 7가지 유형별 완구를 대상으로 유아들에게 30분의 놀이를 진행한 후 그를 관찰하고 측정한다. 실험 준비물로는 ① 7가지 유형별 완구 ② 관찰기록지 ③ 자료입력 노트북 ④ 자료정리 엑셀프로그램 ⑤ 통계분석 SPSS 12.0 사용하여 분석한다. 실험 결과로는 첫째, 7가지 유 형별 완구가 성별에 따라 몰입도 차이 정도를 분석한다. 둘째, 7가지 유형별 완구가 연령별에 따라 몰입도 차이 정도를 분 석한다. 셋째, 몰입도의 차이 정도를 분석하고 원인을 규명해 본다. 이 연구를 통하여, 7가지 유형별 완구의 사고력에 의한 지적능력이 뛰어난 완구의 유형은 어떠한 것들이며, 성별, 연령별 차이에 따라 어떠한 차이와 변화가 있는지를 분석하여, 차후, 완구 선택에 있어서 사고능력 개발과 건강한 자아실현을 추구할 수 있는 완구개발의 기초 자료로 활용하고자 한다.
