Although job satisfaction is a primary human resource management concern, there is little empirical research considering job satisfaction in non-Western countries. In Korea, reforms aim to make the public service more competitive and diverse and have led to the recruitment of more women and young people. This study uses data from the Korean Income and Labor Panel Study to explore the relationship of age, gender, and service sector with job satisfaction. No substantial difference was found in the

RFID applicants called as e-ID, smart tag, and contactless smart card are being applied to numerous areas in our daily life, including tracking manufactured goods, currency, and patients to payments systems. To review these various applications of RFID is important to exploring not only ongoing e-governance issues such as digital identification, delivery process, and governance but also business oriented application areas like supply chain. Through a systematic review methodology from 111 previo

As governments and nonprofit organizations build close partnerships for the provision of public services, they become interdependent in many ways. In particular, nonprofits' public‐resource dependence has significant implications for their behavior and decisions. By examining Korean cultural nonprofit organizations (CNPOs), this article posits a theoretical framework for the impact of public‐resource dependence on nonprofits' organizational autonomy and legitimacy. The empirical results of natio

Recent brand relationship research has paid attention to brand love, brand credibility, and brand loyalty. In market and society, various collaborations and co-creations derived from brand relationships generate various social network markets and open business innovations. Brand relationships and collaborative forms heavily depend on risk taking or risk avoidance. However, few studies have examined how brand relationship is related to risk avoidance. The purpose of this study is to investigate t

Recent research suggests competing aspects of how to promote an entrepreneurial ecosystem for sustainable economic growth from a linear entrepreneurial ecosystem to non-linear ones involving diverse stakeholders beyond the dichotomy between state and market. Competing views and interests embedded in these multiple stakeholders can contribute to understanding how an entrepreneurial ecosystem can emerge, flourish and vanish. However, little systematic research has explored what aspects multiple st

최근 바우처가 시민의 선택권 확장, 공급자 사이의 경쟁 촉진, 형평성 제고차원에서 주목을 받고 있다. 하지만 국내의 경우 아직 바우처에 대한 체계적인 분석이 부족하다. 이에 본 연구는 바우처의 개념과 기능, 다른 정책수단과의 차이점, 그리고 한국과 미국을 중심으로 한 바우처 현황과 쟁점을 정리하고 있다. 마지막으로 바우처 정책설계 시 주요 고려사항과 향후 연구방향을 제시하고 있다.

The significance and the role of leadership in organizations and institutions have been widely discussed but not well understood. Much of the previous literature is limited to leadership practices and education as well as to the American context. Focusing on the Korean ministerial level, this study examines the ministerial leadership interplaying uniquely between the president (politics) and career civil servants (administration). Extending the typology of transformational and transactional lead

This research explores the impact of the Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Household-Based Food Waste Charging System (RHWC) on the reduction of food waste in Mapo-Gu district located in Seoul city from June 2013 to July 2016. Through comparing the amount of food waste disposal between 12 apartment complexes with the RHWC policy (treatment group) and 61 apartment complexes (control group) without the policy, we attempt to identify whether the RHWC can contribute in reducing food waste. In Ju

According to Hofstede’s theory of cultural dimensions, cultures differ in cultural values and norms; values and norms that may influence differences in trendsetting, creative traits, and behaviors, and pro-environmental behaviors. Further, because men and women have been socialized within particular cultures, gender differences may exist in trendsetting, creative traits and behaviors, and pro-environmental behaviors. Trendsetters have characteristics that are interrelated with creative traits an

FlexRay is an in-vehicle communication network for safety-critical automotive applications such as network-based braking or steering systems. The FlexRay protocol offers various benefits over the existing in-vehicle networks by using a hybrid approach integrating the static segment and the dynamic segment. While the static segment is based on time division multiple access (TDMA) to achieve deterministic behavior, the dynamic segment adopts so-called flexible TDMA (FTDMA) to achieve flexible and

This paper examined the important organizational and managerial factors of publicness for the equity of health care. The extent of organizational publicness was measured with key independent variables such as ownership, evaluation, and accreditation. The dependent variable was measured by three equity indicators for patients under medical care and veterans care: financial inequity, social equity, and overall equity. We analyzed unbalanced panel data with 328 general hospitals between 2008 and 20

This study explores the role of community-led governance in innovation adoption by drawing determinants of RFID waste pricing system adoption. The Ministry of Environment of the Republic of Korea adopted an individual-incentive based RFID waste pricing system for apartment complexes in 2013 in an effort to reduce food waste. After invention and wide usage during World War Two, RFID has received lots of intention especially in public policy field. This innovative system using RFID machines and RF

본 연구는 사회자본과 지방정부 재정역량 사이의 연관성을 실증분석하고 있다. 전국 97개 시군구 자료를 근거로 사회자본이 지방정부 재정역량에 미치는 직간접 영향 경로를 파악하고 있다. 본 연구의 다중회귀분석에 따르면 공적 연결망과 같은 시민단체 밀도가 지방정부 재정역량에 유의미한 영향을 준다. 그런데 스포츠클럽과 같은 사적 연결망의 경우 지방정부 재정역량에 대한 영향은 상대적으로 작다. 하지만 정보공개나 시민참여 모두 지방정부 재정역량과는 무관한 것으로 나타난다. 본 연구의 구조방정식 모형에 따르면 사회자본은 지방정부 재정역량에 직접 긍정적 영향을 주지만, 주민참여나 정보공개와 같은 변인들(사회자본의 작동기제)을 통한 간접효과는 없는 것으로 나타난다. 오히려 구조방정식 모형에서 정보공개와 지방정부 재정역량 사이에 부(否)의 연관성이 드러난다. 앞으로 연구설계와 측정 단계에서부터 사회자본이 정부성과에 미치는 긍정적 영향기제와 부정적 영향기제를 구분할 수 있는 추가 연구가 필요하다.

This study, relying on seemingly unrelated regression(SUR) model, tests whether or how public service motivation(PSM) is related to creativity. Creativity may be related to public motivations including attraction to public interest, civic duty, and sacrifice. These PSM subfactors involve the propensity for risk-taking to solve common problems and public issues. This study compares how male and female Korean and US college students differ in PSM and creativity and shows that PSM significantly aff

Previous studies are limited in identifying the effectiveness of each country to seek sectoral support rather than integrated aid. However, it is hypothesized that sector-specific aid by Official Development Assistance (ODA) may be more effective than total aid. This study aims to identify the determinants of economic growth and the living standard levels in 15 Asian countries, focusing particularly on the effects of Official Development Assistance (ODA). In order to explore this research questi
