Cultural Divergence in Emotion Regulation: U.S. and Korean Relationship Dynamics During Social Crises
(1) Background: In times of social crisis, the way individuals manage their emotions undergoes substantial changes. As emotion regulation strategies also vary across cultures, how they impact relationship dynamics between U.S. and Korean populations may differ. This study explores these cultural differences, shedding light on the interplay between culture, emotion, and social dynamics. (2) Methods: Through analysis of 210 U.S. and 197 Korean part…
Do you feel the same way I do? Relationship between efficacy of emotion regulation strategies and affective convergence
Cultural variation in the motivational correlates of gratitude
Gratitude confers a sense of indebtedness to repay the benefactor, which poses a limitation on one's autonomy-an aversive experience in individualist cultures. Yet, gratitude is frequently valued and expressed in individualist cultures such as the United States. One solution to this dilemma is that gratitude has different aspects: It confers a sense of obligation but also strengthens social relations. Thus, gratitude might be associated more stro…
Motivated to feel better and doing something about it: Cross-cultural differences in motivated emotion regulation during Covid-19
Emotion regulation is linked to adaptive psychological outcomes. To engage in such regulation, people must be motivated to do it. Given that people in different countries vary in how they think about unpleasant emotions, we expected motivation to decrease unpleasant emotions to differ across countries. Furthermore, given that emotion regulation strategies operate in the service of motivation, we expected people who are less motivated to decrease …
For me or for others? The better-than-average effect and negative feelings toward average others during the Covid-19 pandemic
The effect of suppressing guilt and shame on the immoral decision-making process
Why do we vent our emotions and blame others during the coronavirus pandemic? The role of emotional clarity in the United States and South Korea ( ¿Por qué ventilamos nuestras emociones y culpabilizam…
People have been experiencing more negative affect (NA) during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic than prior to its onset. This may increase instances of people venting their emotions and blaming others to relieve the flood of unregulated NA. This study examined individuals’ venting and blaming processes within the context of the pandemic and explored the mediating role of emotional clarity across cultures. We conducted an online survey with 2…
Emotion regulation strategies and psychological health across cultures
Emotion regulation is important for psychological health and can be achieved by implementing various strategies. How one regulates emotions is critical for maximizing psychological health. Few studies, however, tested the psychological correlates of different emotion regulation strategies across multiple cultures. In a preregistered cross-cultural study ( N = 3,960, 19 countries), conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic, we assessed associations b…
Does Grit Matter to Employees’ Quality of Work Life and Quality of Life? The Case of the Korean Public Sector
To ensure the quality of the work done in the Korean career civil service system (which is characterized by stability, such as lifelong job security), the public sector must use methods to motivate their employees and improve their performance in the long run. In this study, we propose that grit, as a type of work motivation, can boost employee well-being (i.e., job satisfaction, job stress) and organizational outcomes (i.e., organizational commi…
Mechanism of the better-than-average effect in moral issues: Asymmetrical causal attribution across moral (vs. immoral) contexts
Previous research has found that the better-than-average effect exists in moral issues: specifically, people believe that they are more moral than others. The present study demonstrated the better-than-average effect in judging moral and immoral behaviors in oneself. In Study 1 (N = 233), we found that the better-than-average effect is observed in estimating the intention of immoral behaviors in oneself, which means that people are likely to perc…
Mechanisms of perceived accountability in Korean NPOs: Activating the dynamics of NPM-driven and confucian-driven cultures
The Roles of Strategic Human Resource Management and Person–Environment Fit On Nonprofit Public Service Motivation
This study examines the relationship between public service motivation (i.e., intrinsically and voluntarily driven attitudes and dispositions), strategic human resource management, and person–environment fit in Korean nonprofit organizations in order to determine the ways by which both the motivation of employees and the performance of these organizations can be enhanced. This was done using data from a survey on Korean nonprofit organizations em…
Nurses’ Perspectives on Health Education and Health Literacy of Older Patients
In the context of population aging, enhancing the health of older patients has become an urgent issue for public health. Health education and health literacy need to be further understood from the healthcare providers' standpoint to increase older patients' effective application of such information into their daily lives. We aimed to further understand nurses' perspectives on the education of older patients and their health literacy, as nurses ar…
Severity and Influencing Factors of Homophobia in Korean Nursing Students
Sexual minorities are people with non-cis and non-heterosexual gender identities, including LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) identities. Korean society is prejudiced against sexual minorities-in our study, we will broadly label this prejudice homophobia. It is possible that sexual minorities do not receive appropriate health management owing to such prejudices. Therefore, it is necessary to reduce homophobia in nursing students. Thi…
Nurses' Willingness to Report Near Misses: A Multilevel Analysis of Contributing Factors
Although potential future medical errors can best be prevented through reporting near misses, on-site error reporting is not being achieved to a satisfactory level. We surveyed 489 nurses working in 34 wards at a university hospital in Korea in regard to their understanding of factors related to error reporting. Survey items included willingness to report near misses, defensive silence, leader-member exchange, role clarity, and knowledge-sharing …

Transportation of Korean Slave Laborers During World War II: Kanfu Ferries
Korean Forced Laborers and Women Used as “Sex Slaves” During World War II: Transported by Japan's Merchant Ships
The purpose of this essay is to examine, through scholarly research, the issue of the responsibility of such civilian transportation in relation to war crimes and the responsibility of the Japanese government and during World War II. Relatively abundant research has been completed regarding the problem of transporting American war prisoners. In contrast, the research on forced labor vis-a-vis Koreans and Chinese women used as sex slaves, and on t…
