This study proposed a research model based on self-determination theory and unified theory of acceptance and use of technology to explain the factors influencing intention to use sharing economy services. A total of 392 responses were collected, and structural equation analysis was performed with AMOS 22.0. The results are summarized as follows. First, self-technological aptness and trust had a positive effect on intention to use sharing economy services. Second, access bigger market and environmental friendliness had a positive effect on intention to use sharing economy services. Third, intention to use sharing economy services had a positive effect on actual usage of sharing economy services. Finally, benefits was found to strengthen the relationship between intention to use sharing economy services and actual usage of sharing economy services. The findings of this study would provide a theoretical framework for sharing economy services and important information for understanding individuals using the sharing economy services.

Waste electrical and electronic equipment(WEEE or E-waste) is one of the fastest growing waste stream in Korea. The proper management of such equipment has become of major concern for solid waste professionals because of the large growth of the waste stream and the presence of a myriad of toxic materials in it. In this paper, in order to evaluate the economical value of the recycling metallic materials from the E-waste, big size electrical home appliances, small size electrical home appliances, end of life hand phone and PCB(printed circuit board) were reviewed.

This paper analyses recent regional development policies being carried out in Japan and the U.S. Such policies are formed on the sustainability principle aiming at the realization of circula-flow economy and zero waste society. The study here illuminates Japan's Eco-town project and three cases of eco-industrial developments in Minnesota. Such projects have gone from improving industry competitiveness through constructing clean production systems on the company level to improving national competitiveness through constructing a 'circular society' on the government level. Japan included the realization of a 'circular society' as its government's top agenda because it recognized that environmental pollution stems from the inefficient use of natural resources. Eco-town project is a regional development policy specifically reflecting such recognition. The eco-efficiency based city development approaches in Minnesota are but small examples of the new wave in regional development in the developed countries. We need to go beyond emphasizing eco-friendly and ethical management to just the companies. The government itself needs to design national policies based on environmental sustainability.

Focused in the characteristic of R&D on Geoscience and Mineral Resources as basic research area, we survey on methods of public works' economic impact analysis including cost-benefit analysis and resent technology evaluation methods and suggest apply-methods to conduct economic impact analysis on R&D of geoscience and mineral resources. To conduct economic impact analysis on the basic research area, it need to identification research's out-come not just output. In this perspective, we propose a method, Input-Output-Outcome Roadmapping to identify the outcome of R&D and show the relation of input, output, and outcome of R&D. Furthermore, noticing the different effects of R&D from public works, we directly evaluate the use-value of the academic theory or geological maps through Contingent Valuation Method(CVM) and others developed as evaluation methods on environmental goods. In indirect application methods, it can evaluate the partial of the pubic works' benefit with assuming R&D factors if R&D is a part of public works. If not, we evaluate the R&D's value as reductions of costs or additions of benefit with finding related public works.

자원식물은 인간의 천연물에 대한 관심 고조와 미래 생물자원으로서의 경제적 가치가 재인식되어 미국을 비롯한 선진국은 오래전부터 유용한 식물자원 보존과 이를 이용한 산업화에 정부가 앞장서 추진하고 있다. 더욱이 우리나라는 국토면적에 비해 많은 식물종이 분포하고 뚜렷한 4계절과 다양한 토양특성으로 우수한 기능성식물자원이 많으며 이들 식물자원의 이용과 효능에 대한 풍부한 지식이 전통적으로 이어져 왔다. 그럼에도 불구하고 우수한 자원식물에 대한 보존과 이용이 과학화 체계화되지 못하여 세계적인 품종이나 제품개발은 미흡한 실정이다. 그동안 우리나라는 토종자원에 대한 관심과 꾸준한 연구개발로 농촌진흥청 보존 농업유전자원은 세계 6위 수준('10년말 291천점) 이며, 멀티기능 유용물질 함유 작물 개발 및 실용화 기술수준도 기술력 지수 세계7위로 높게 평가되고 있다. 그러나 이들 자원식물로부터 유용물질을 이용하여 세계시장을 선도하는 천연물신약, 건강기능성식품, 한방화장품, 천연 색소 및 향료 등의 제품개발은 미흡하여 앞으로 유망 자원식물을 이용한 체계적이고 과학적인 고부가 산업 육성을 위한 집중적인 투자가 필요한 시점이다. 자원식물을 이용한 천연물 신약개발은 고부가가치 제품과 산업재산권 확보가 가능하므로 수입 대체와 기술 및 제품수출이 충분히 이루어질 수 있다고 보여 현재 연구개발 중인 신약후보 도출 및 임상개발 과제의 수요를 반영한 후 단계별 대규모 신약개발 노력이 필요하다 하겠다. 건강기능 식품 개발은 고령사회 진입과 노령인구 증가로 노화억제 및 고령자 건강유지용 식품비중이 지속적으로 높아질 것으로 추정되어 약용식물을 소재로 개인 맞춤형 나노바이오 건강기능성 식품 개발을 통한 다양한 제품개발이 요구된다. 또한 우리나라 화장품분야의 전반적인 기술수준은 세계최고 기술의 62% 수준이나 화장품 소재의 자원식물 발굴과 나노기술 접목을 통한 효능의 극대화는 소비자의 웰빙 트랜드와 외국화장품과의 차별화 전략에 맞물려 국내 한방화장품의 세계화가 가능한 품목 중 하나이다. 식용 및 염색용 색소도 자원식물이 풍부하고 천연색소 시장이 크게 확장되고 있어 자원식물 중 경제성과 기술적 개발 가능성을 고려하여 단계적인 개발이 요구된다. 특히, 우리의 식물자원, 전통지식, 과학기술이 통합되어 효능을 현저하게 상승시키는 천연물신약, 건강보조식품, 화장품 등이 개발된다면 세계시장을 선도할 날도 멀지 않을 것으로 기대한다.

This study investigates the stance of the social capitals that explain voluntary services. The testing results indicate that the decision to join the voluntary services is significantly affected by ages, householder, marriage, preschool child, gender, physical condition, income, education, job position, occupation, region, day, etc. And a giving time is significantly influenced by ages, marriages, working together of husband and wife, gender, income, job, occupation position, a type of living house, etc. Moreover, we find that the economic values of the voluntary services estimate at 21,467 billion won a year in 2004, and GDP ratio is 0.2% that is lower than those of major developed countries.
