The operating system update is a basic step to maintain a safe internet use environment. This study analyzed whether the implementation of the operating system update was related to gender and age group during the violation accident prevention act in relation to information protection on the internet, and tried to verify the validity of these factors by analyzing the influence of gender and age group. In this study, logistic regression analysis was conducted based on the information security survey data surveyed by the Korea Internet & Security Agency in 2016. As a result, gender and age were surveyed as factors related to the implementation of operating system updates. As a result of analyzing the impact on the implementation of operating system updates by gender, it is estimated that the odds are 0.419 times higher for women than for men. According to the analysis of the operating system update by age group based on the 50s, which is a vulnerable group of information, the result is that the odds are 13.266 times higher in the 20s than the 50s.

This study conducts empirical research on gender differentials of economic resources in old age. The economic resources are assessed by the presence of independent income source and the amount of total income. The study, based on nation-wide survey of the elderly, examines the effects of individual level variables and household level ones. Also, it compares such effects between male and female elderly. The analysis shows that several variables have gender specific effects. Among them, particularly interesting and important are marital status and coresidence with children. The positive effect of having spouse is greater among female elderly than among male elderly. Also, while coresidence with children among male elderly has insignificant or slightly positive relation to their own economic resources, it has a negative relation among female elderly. These results indicate that female elderly are dependent on their husbands and children. The study suggests that future research on the elderly incorporate gender differentials into models attempting to capture diversity within the elderly population.

This study is to demonstrate the effects of working hour on the workers' subjective well-being. Working hour, in this study, means working time per a day and the generosity of weekly holiday. Firstly, the effects of working hour on the worker's well-being will be analyzed. Secondly, it will be investigated if the effects of working hour on the worker's well-being change according to the existence of the family member who needs care. The results of the analysis show that longer working hour and the lower generosity of weekly holiday decrease workers' well being. If workers have family member who needs care, the effects of working hour and the generosity of weekly holiday on the worker's well-being are not significant. It contrasts to the result that women are more satisfactory to their lives than men in cases they don't have family member who needs care. It is supposed that these results are closely related with the enormous gender gap of care time in Korea.

This study analyzed the work and retirement behavior of middle- and old-aged Koreans using panel-data based multi-state life table models. Compared to previous studies that have mainly focused on gender differences in the work and retirement behavior, this study also analyzed educational differences in the retirement life course. With respect to the heterogeneity of work and retirement experiences, this study finds that the retirement life course of men and women differs substantially. Despite their longer life spans, women are expected to have shorter working life expectancies but live in a non-working state longer, resulting in a substantially higher proportion of non-working state in their lives. In terms of educational differences, this study finds that there is little difference in the expected length of stay in the labor force across educational levels but that poorly educated persons are more likely to spend a greater proportion of their lives in the labor force due to their shorter non-working life expectancies.

The purpose of this study is to clarify the real causes of gender wage differentials in Korea by analyzing changes over the period from 1984 to 1999. The participation rate of women in the Korean labor force has gradually increased since 1963, reaching 47.4 percent as of 1999. This increase can be attributed to more active participation by women of all ages, except those aged 15-19, as a result of their enrollment in higher level education. In particular, a remarkable rise in labor market participation was achieved by those aged 25-29. On the other hand, the ratio of female workers earnings to that of male workers has increased from 45.1 percent in 1972 to 63.1 percent in 1999. However, when the gender wage differentials are decomposed into various factors, it is found that discrimination components against female workers, compared to the skills or productivity characteristics, played a greater role for the 1994 to 1999 period.

This study estimates gender wage gap by the Korean industries. The empirical findings are as follows: 1. The sex segregation by industries has not improved. 2. The average wage in $\ulcorner$electricity, transportation, warehousing, financial institutions$\lrcorner$ is relatively higher than others. On the contrary, the average wage in $\ulcorner$mining and manufacturing$\lrcorner$ and $\ulcorner$wholesale and retail, food, loading$\lrcorner$ is relatively lower than others. 3. The gender wage gap in $\ulcorner$electricity, transportation, warehousing, financial institutions$\lrcorner$ is relatively lower than others. On the contrary, the gender wage gap in $\ulcorner$mining and manufacturing$\lrcorner$ is relatively higher than others. The gender wage gap has declined annually. The gender wage gap in industries with lower wage level is higher. The decline of gender wage gap cannot be interpreted as a relaxation of sexual discrimination.

웹은 제작과 사용이 간편하다는 이점으로 인해 사용인구가 폭발적으로 증가하고 있다. 또한 웹은 지역, 성별, 연령에 관계없이 사용할 수 있는 보편적인 특성을 지니고 있다. 이러한 웹의 보편적 특징은 특히 장애인들을 위해서 웹 접근성이라는 용어로 사용되고 있다. 이러한 웹 접근성을 평가하기 위해 국내 정부기관 웹 사이트와 국제기구 웹 사이트를 비교 평가하였다. 특히, 웹 접근성평가는 평가자의 기준에 의해 평가결과가 모호하며 평가결과가 상당부분 왜곡되어 있다는 문제점이 있다. 또한 이러한 문제점은 데이터테이블에서 두드러지게 나타난다. 본 연구에서는 데이터 테이블의 왜곡된 평가에 대한 문제점을 도출하고 그러한 문제점을 수정하여 국내외 웹 사이트들을 비교 평가하였다. 평가결과, 국내외 웹 사이트의 데이터 테이블에 대한 웹 접근성은 많은 격차가 존재하였으며, 웹 접근성 준수 여부는 지침의 기술적 준수뿐만 아니라 웹 사이트 설계 시 화면 구성에 의해서도 결정되어 짐을 제시하였다.
