The purposes of this study are, 1) to explore the factors related to the family caregivers' preferences for service utilization both of the community-based welfare and health-care services, and 2) to examine the reasons why not want to use services analyzing a survey data obtained from family caregivers(n=1,000). Anderson and Newman's Behavior model was employed to examine the factors related to the preferences for service utilization. The main results are as follows. 1) Logistic regression analyses demonstrated that predisposing factor(such as age and relations with frail elderly) and enabling factor(such as economic status, secondary caregiver, informal informational support provider, etc) were significant predictor for caregivers' preference for service utilization. Contrary to an expectation, needs factor was negatively related to the preference for service. More specifically, the more they have service needs, the less they show their willingness to use community-based service both in welfare and health-care services except for care education program. 2) Caregiver identified 'family caregiving consciousness'(family should take care of frail elderly, elderly dislike be taken care of) as an important reason not want to use community services next to financial factor. These findings have several implications for policy making especially for 'public long-term care insurance' which was planned to start in 2007.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the factors influencing the intention of revisiting and recommending by applying a structural equation model, targeting the service quality factors of university libraries derived from previous studies. For 11 days from April 30th, 2020 to May 10th, 2020, a total of 127 user groups (undergraduate students, graduate students, professors/instructors) were surveyed on their intention to revisit and recommend. The analysis results are as follows. 'Materials' and 'service customization' were shown as quality dimensions that influence revisit. In addition, revisiting was found to have an effect on recommendation intention, and it was analyzed that 'materials' and 'service customization' affect not only revisit but also recommendation intention. In addition, 'service customization' was found to be a factor that directly affects the intention to recommend. Based on this, a method of applying the concept of customization to library services and marketing was proposed in an environment where users' needs are diversifying and becoming personalized.

This study examined the factors affecting the preference for the elderly's mental health services utilization in rural areas. A behavior model developed by Andersen and Newman provided an analytical framework to determine the factors affecting service utilization preferences among 335 elderly people as research subjects. The authors found that the preferences for mental health service utilization were significantly related to the level of education, living alone, presence of grandchildren, participation in social activities, and recognition about the services. Based on the findings, this study suggests that more mental health services for the elderly in rural areas be further developed and strengthened. Also, the elderly who lives alone and lives with grandchildren should have a priority in policy consideration. Multiple approaches are suggested to increase the awareness of mental health services and participation social activities for those older people.

Todays, telecommunications companies tried to transform CDMA users into 3G service, WCDMA users. However, the WCDMA market growth is postponed by the lack of difference between CDMA and WCDMA service, customer's switching barriers such as loyalty program and handset, etc. Therefore, in this study, we tried to identify the relationship between the customer's satisfaction to the WCDMA services and the intention to uses using the WCDMA users' data. Additionally, we set the customer's attitude of technology adoption as a moderating variable between the customer's satisfaction to the WCDMA services and the intention to use. We expect that our results will be useful in planning the strategies of WCDMA service.

This study was conducted with the aim of comparing and analyzing the relationship between visitors' characteristics and service satisfaction, overall satisfaction and loyalty (revisit intention, recommendation intention) of recreational forests and arboretums. The main results are as follows. First, the scores given for service satisfaction, overall satisfaction, and loyalty of the users of the recreational forests were all higher than those given by the visitors to arboretums, and the service satisfaction level was relatively different from that of the overall satisfaction level or loyalty of the users. Second, the service satisfaction level of the recreational forests did not affect the overall satisfaction level and visitor loyalty, whereas the service satisfaction level of the arboretum was found to be positively correlated with the overall satisfaction level and visitor loyalty. The results are meaningful given that the visitors to recreational forests and arboretums are distributed throughout the country; thus, we confirmed that there are differences in visitor characteristics between the two types of forest recreation areas. In order to differentiate operation strategies for each type of forest recreation areas, the development of common survey items covering the entire set of services provided by forest recreation areas is needed. In addition, it would be advantageous to further develop and modularize the relevant items and conduct surveys in parallel with common survey items, as the service contents are operated selectively to function in accordance with the purpose of creating each forest recreation area.

This study measured the quality of Elderly Day Care Services by surveying service users; data were analyzed to see the causality between quality of services, customary satisfaction, referral intention, and repurchasing intention, and to find out the mediating effect of customary satisfaction. The quality of Day Care Services has been measured based on the SERVQUAL model, and structural equation model has been used to observe the causal connection between the five factors, tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy, and customary satisfaction, referral intention, and repurchasing intention. The following is the main result from the causal effect model affecting the customary satisfaction and repurchasing intention by five quality factors of the service quality. First, it was shown that tangibles and responsiveness, as quality factors, directly affected the customary satisfaction, and reliability, credibility, and empathy did not. Second, it was shown that tangibles, reliability, responsiveness and empathy, quality factors, did not directly affected the referral intention and the repurchasing intention. But the effect of service quality on referral and repurchasing intention was mediated by customer satisfaction. Third, it is shown that customary satisfaction directly affected the referral intention and the repurchasing intention.
