With regards to CSR, Proactive CSR has been less researched in small & medium enterprises(SMEs). This research examines empirically the relation between SME's organizational capabilities, proactive CSR and corporate performance as well as a mediating role of proactive CSR between capabilities and corporate performance. Using quantitative data collected from 485 SMEs in Korea, we find that all specified capabilities are positively related with adoption of proactive CSR by SMEs and that proactive CSR is, in turn, associated with an improvement in corporate performance. In addition, we also find a mediating role of proactive CSR on the relationship between organizational capabilities and performance. The study is likely to contribute to both SMEs CSR strategy and RBV research.

With this background, this study conducted an empirical investigation using a statistical tool based on survey data about a casual relationship between organizational capabilities, proactive CSR, reactive CSR and Business Performance from a RBV perspective. The result of this empirical study is as follows, First, SME's specified organizational capabilities have positive and significant effect on a proactive CSR. Second, the proactive CSR is positively related with business performance but reactive CSR is not like that.

This is an exploratory study examining factors associated with awareness of the National Long Term Care Insurance in Korea. The researchers also examined the differences in factors based on their age, between the middle-aged group(45-64 years of age) and the elderly group(65 years and older). The 6th wave of Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing(KLoSA) was used for secondary data analysis. Results indicated that for the middle-aged, gender, volunteer participation, ADL, IADL, and depression were related to their awareness of the long term care insurance. However, for the elderly, social capital factors were significantly related to their awareness of the insurance. Age and depression were also significant factors associated with the awareness level of the long term care insurance among the elderly. Based on the findings, implications for social welfare policy are discussed.

The present study investigated the mediating effects of parents' social networks on the relationship between parents' socioeconomic status and parent involvement. Parent involvement in the current study was composed of home-based and school-based involvement. Home-based involvement includes providing learning environment at home, guiding child's study habits, and providing educational and financial support. School-based involvement includes supporting child's school-related activities, participating at parent meetings and volunteering, and home-school communication. The subjects were 132 single mothers and 164 mothers from two-parent families, whose children are fifth and sixth graders in Seoul and Incheon. Structural Equational Modeling was used for the analysis by adopting SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0. The results showed that single mothers and mothers from two-parent families differ in their structural models. For mothers from two-parent families, socioeconomic status was directly related to home-based and school-based involvement. In contrast, single mother's socioeconomic status only influenced home-based and school-based involvement indirectly through the functional aspects of mother's social networks. The results suggest that parent counseling and parent education programs might be more effective if they encouraged single mothers to exchange resources through their social networks in order to promote parent involvement in elementary schools.

우리 사회의 고령화와 저출산이 심각한 사회문제로 제기되면서 경제활동인구의 감소에 대비해 입직연령 하향의 필요성이 강하게 제기되기 시작했다. 이를 위해 취학연령의 하향, 수학년한의 단축 등과 같은 학제개편 논의가 제기되고 있으나 학자들이나 이해단체 간의 이견이 분분하고, 관련 종사자들간의 이해관계가 얽혀 단기간에 합의를 도출하기는 어려운 상황이다. 따라서 현 제도적으로 가능한 조기졸업 활성화에 대한 진지한 논의는 하나의 대안이 될 수 있다. 여기에서 입직연령 하향과 대학경쟁력, 그리고 조기졸업제의 효과적인 활용방안에 대해 살펴보기로 하자.

First, Korean IT companies in India ought to work on CSR activities so this study investigates to see if CSR can reduce employee turnover rate. Second, the study is to verify whether job embeddedness plays mediating role in the relationship between CSR and 'intention to leave'. Third, the study is also to verify whether organizational identification plays mediating role in the relationship between CSR and 'intention to leave'. Lastly, the study is also to verify whether job embeddedness and organizational identification show dual mediation effect in the relationship between CSR and 'intention to leave'. The results of the study are as follows ; First, CSR does not make any significant effect on 'intention to leave'. Second, job embeddedness and organizational identification show dual mediation effect in the relationship between CSR and 'intention to leave'. So if Korean IT firms in India conduct CSR activities strategically, the activities can eventually reduce the propensity of 'intention to leave'. Based on the results, several implications on Korean IT firms are suggested for reducing the propensity of 'intention to leave' in India, effectively.

본 논문에서는 소비자들의 4차 산업혁명에 대한 인식이 어떠한지를 살펴보고, 그러한 인식들은 개별 소비주체들의 SNS 지향적인 활동에 따라 다를 것이라는 가정을 두고 분석을 시작하였다. 즉, SNS 지향적인 활동을 하는 사람일수록 4차 산업혁명에 대한 인식이 잘 되어 있을 것이다. 하지만 그러한 개방적인 인식도 프라이버시의 수준에 따라 의존적일 수 있을 것이므로 이에 대한 조절효과를 살펴보고자 하였다. 그 결과, SNS 지향적인 소비자일수록 4차 산업혁명에 대한 인식이 높게 나타났으며 이러한 관계는 개인들이 프라이버시에 대해 자유로울수록 더 증폭되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 4차 산업혁명에 당면한 경제구조 속에서 보다 적극적인 대응을 하기 위한 기초자료로 기여를 할 것으로 판단된다.
