Attachment is a deep and enduring emotional bond that connects one person to another across time and space. Assertiveness can be defined as the ability to express one’s own thoughts, feelings, and beliefs in an explicit and appropriate manner, and to show respect for other’s rights while protecting one’s own. The present quantitative study uses a between group design to study the differences between male and female college students with respect to levels of parent attachment, peer attachment and their dimensions (viz., trust, communication and alienation) and assertiveness. The relationship between mother attachment, father attachment, peer attachment and assertiveness was analysed in both the groups using a correlational design. Purposive sampling was used to collect the data from male (N=200) and female (N=200) college students. Inventory for Parent and Peer Attachment and Rathus Assertiveness Schedule was used. Independent t-test results indicated no difference between males and females with respect to parent attachment, peer attachment and assertiveness. Correlation results indicated a significant positive relationship between assertiveness and the dimensions trust and communication of mother attachment. There was a negative correlation between assertiveness and trust of father attachment and a positive correlation between assertiveness and alienation of father attachment. A negative correlation between assertiveness and the dimensions trust and communication of peer attachment and a positive correlation between assertiveness and alienation of peer attachment were also indicated with correlation. Results also revealed difference in the levels of assertiveness among college students having dominant mother, father or peer attachment. The present study reiterates earlier findings on attachment. Assertiveness in college students could help them build their individual character and personality and help in interpersonal interactions.

Intuitive Judgments

College students' intuitive judgments about covariations between height, weight, and body fat were assessed in three experiments using responses to a series of prepositional statements as the dependent variable. In Exp. 1, judgments were rendered without explicit exposure to a prior database. In Exps. 2 and 3, however, databases were studied prior to these judgments. Remarkable consistencies in judgments of weight and body fat height and weight as well as of height and body fat were obtained across experiments At best, there was little evidence that the databases influenced the judged covariations among these variables. Whereas judgments about weight and body fat were unambiguous and consistent with the actual positive correlation between weight and body fat, judgments about height and weight as well as height and body fat were less clearcut. What was clear, however, was that these judgments were highly similar. Implications of these findings from previous research that suggest the presence of a perceived negative correlation between height and body fat are discussed.

Then a questionnaire survey was applied to 947 Chinese college students. The results show that cyberbullying among Chinese college students are generally at a low level. There are many factors influence cyberbullying. Specifically, at the personal background level, gender has a significant impact on cyberbullying and being cyberbullied. In terms of personal Internet use and social network habits, students’ average daily online time has no significant correlation with cyberbullying and being cyberbullied; however, the proportion of online non-learning time has a significantly positive correlation with cyberbullying, and the proportion of online learning/work time has a significant impact on being cyberbullied. At the personality level, the Big Five personality traits have varying degrees of correlation with and influence on cyberbullying and being cyberbullied. At the personal emotions level, students’ life satisfaction has a significantly negative correlation with cyberbullying and being cyberbullied while it only has a significant impact on being cyberbullied; the personal stress and empathetic concern aspects of empathy have a significantly positive correlation with cyberbullying and being cyberbullied among female students. At the literacy related to digital citizenship level, students’ understanding of and compliance with Internet etiquette have significantly negative impacts on cyberbullying; the ability to communicate and collaborate online and Internet addiction have significantly positive impacts on cyberbullying and being cyberbullied; the understanding of and compliance with relevant digital laws and regulations have significantly negative correlations with cyberbullying and being cyberbullied. Overall, college students’ digital citizenship level has a significantly negative correlation with cyberbullying but no significant correlation with being cyberbullied.

In the era of the 4th industrial revolution, various 4th industrial technologies are being used in the beauty industry. Therefore, education courses using the 4th industrial technology are needed for beauty education as well. Therefore, this study tried to apply to beauty education by empirically examining the perception of VR and expectations for VR applied beauty education among beauty major learners. A total of 106 beauty-related learners from 1st to 4th grade participated in the study. As a result of analyzing the perception of VR, there was a statistically significant difference according to the grades (p<.01), and the higher the grade, the higher the perception of VR. In addition, the perception of VR was found to have a statistically significant (p<.001) positive (+) correlation with educational, immersion, interest, and deviance by sub-factors of VR applied beauty education expectations. It was found that the higher the awareness, the higher the educational, immersive, interesting, and deviant factors of VR applied beauty education expectations. These results confirm the learners' expectations for the operation of beauty courses using VR and the necessity of developing VR-using beauty courses in the beauty education environment. Therefore, in beauty education, it is necessary to quickly realize the development and operation of beauty education courses using VR in line with the 4th industrial revolution era, thereby reviving the expectations of learners. For follow-up research, it is necessary to develop a VR-using beauty course or study after the course is operated.

<p>The term extracurricular activities are defined as any structured activity supervised by one or more adults outside regular school hours or the home. Attachment is an enduring emotional bond which an individual forms to another person. Emotion regulation refers to how we try to<br />influence which emotions we have, when we have them, and how we experience and express<br />these emotions. Career aspirations are defined as long-term individual work related goals.<br />Non-probability purposive sampling was used to select a sample of 230 adolescents aged 12<br />to 16 years. They were divided into three groups: not involved, moderately involved and<br />highly involved in extracurricular activities. The study adopts a factorial design to determine<br />whether there are any main and interactional effects of the level of involvement in<br />extracurricular activities and gender on attachment, emotion regulation and career<br />aspirations in adolescents. The study also adopts a correlational design to determine if the<br />dimensions of attachment and emotion regulation predict career aspirations among<br />adolescents who are not involved, moderately involved and highly involved in extracurricular<br />activities The results showed an influence of involvement in extracurricular activities on<br />adolescents’ mother attachment, father attachment and peer attachment, and career<br />aspirations. Further, adolescents who are highly involved in extracurricular activities were<br />found to be high on alienation. The predictors for career aspirations and its dimension among<br />adolescents who are not involved and moderately involved were found to be peer attachment<br />and its dimensions. However, for those who are highly involved in extracurricular activities,<br />the predictors for career aspirations were found to be mother and father attachment<br />dimensions.
