Abstract

In this study aviation authority officials were classified into four cultural groups according to culture theory, and then questioned to determine the effects of cultural bias on their social acceptance of a new air traffic flow management system. Based on previous studies, cultural biases were categorized as egalitarianistic, individualistic, fatalistic, and hierarchical, and social acceptances were considered to be influenced by four variables, that is, perceptions of usefulness, work attitude, intention to use, and behavior (job absorption). Empirical analysis showed that hierarchy had a significant positive effect on social acceptance, and egalitarianism was found to have a significant positive effect on social acceptance with 95% credibility. We propose the organizational culture of Korean government be changed to accept the diverse opinions of government officials during the implementation phase of the new system recommended by ICAO.

연구자는 문화이론을 적용하여 항공직렬렬 공무원들의 문화적 편향을 분류하였고, 이들의 인식이 새로운 항공교통시스템 도입에 따른 사회적 수용성에 미치는 영향을 파악하고자 하였다. 연구자는 문화적 편향을 선행연구와 마찬가지로 4개의 잠재변수들(평등주의, 개인주의, 계층주의 및 운명주의)로 구분하였으며 사회적 수용성을 유용성 인식, 업무태도, 사용의도 및 업무몰입이라는 4개의 잠재변수들로 구분하였다. 구조방정식 실증분석 결과 국내외 선행연구결과에서 제시된 바와 같이 공무원 집단은 계층주의 인식이 사회적 수용성에 매우 강한 정(+) 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 일반직 공무원 표본과 달리 항공직렬렬 공무원 표본은 평등주의 인식이 사회적 수용성에 95% 신뢰수준에서 매우 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 향후 새로운 항공교통시스템 도입을 추진함에 있어, 정부의 고위 의사결정권자들은 항공직렬렬 공무원들의 이러한 문화적 편향을 충분히 인지하고 이들의 다양하고 심도 있는 의견 개진을 수용할 줄 아는 조직의 문화적 변화가 더욱 필요할 것이다. 이러한 항공정책실 조직 문화의 변화가 뒷받침되어준다면, ICAO 권고사항 적기 이행 및 새로운 항공교통시스템 도입의 성공적 추진을 기대할 수 있을 것이다.
