This research examines the effects of family-friendly organizational climate(FFOC) on innovative behavior. In addition, this study analyzed the moderated moderation effect of members' gender and resilience in the relationship between FFOC and innovative behavior. The results of this study, which empirically analyzed 1,026 employees of manufacturing companies in South Korea using SPSS regression analysis and PROCESS macro, are as follows. First, the FFOC showed a positive effect on innovative behavior. Second, gender had a moderating effect on the relationship between FFOC and innovative behavior. Specifically, men showed higher innovative behavior than women at the low FFOC level, but women showed higher innovative behavior than men at the high FFOC level. Finally, this research demonstrated the moderated moderation effect of gender and resilience in the relationship between FFOC and innovative behavior. ① When the FFOC was high, in the employee group with a low level of resilience, women's innovative behavior was higher than that of men. On the other hand, men's innovative behavior remained at a certain level regardless of FFOC. ② Also, in the employee group with a high level of resilience, the innovative behavior of men was higher than women regardless of FFOC.

Based on total 317 college students, this study was conducted with exploring factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, regression analysis, and hierarchical moderated regression. The results showed that, among the pull factors, need for achievement (p<0.001) and self-actualization (p<0.01) had a significant positive influence on entrepreneurial intentions. It appears that entrepreneurial intentions of college students majoring in foodservice were developed by positive entrepreneurial motivation. The moderating effects by gender were not significant. Through the study results with theoretical suggestions, this study proposed a policy to encourage entrepreneurial activation and desires in college students.

Youth unemployment including college graduates has become more serious in recent years. It is very necessary to study the factors affecting entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial intentions. These days, the number of female entrepreneurs has been increased dramatically. There have been many successful entrepreneurs with technology background in Korea. Until now, there have been not so many empirical studies examining moderating effects of gender and college major. A lot of studies have examined the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial intention of college students. The purpose of this article is to examine gender and major as moderators in the relationship. Until now, there has been very few research investigating the moderating effects of gender and major on the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial intention. Survey questionaries were given to 400 college students randomly chosen in Gangwon-do. Finally, 334 surveys were used to analyze the relationship. The findings of our study are as follows. First, similar to previous studies, entrepreneurial orientation of college students has a positive effect on entrepreneurial intention. Second, participation both in school entrepreneurship courses and out of school entrepreneurship education does positively affect entrepreneurial intention. Gender and major are moderating variables between entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurial intention. Third, compared to male students, female students with low entrepreneurial orientation show much lower entrepreneurial intention. Fourth, compared to Non-STEM students, STEM students with low entrepreneurial orientation show much lower entrepreneurial intention. Thus, in order to improve entrepreneurial intention among college students, it is very important to develop entrepreneurial orientation, especially for female and STEM college students.

As malicious comments are emerging as social problems, the solution is needed. Many studies have been conducted in various perspectives to understand and prevent malicious comments. In the previous researches, the neutralization of malicious comments has attracted attention as an important factor explaining the malicious comments, but the difference of the degree of neutralization according to the gender has not been rarely considered. In addition, although there are many environmental characteristics that are different from reality in online, research with malicious comments is insufficient. Based on these facts, this study examined moderating effects of gender on relationship between malicious comments and neutralization, and demonstrated the effects of online environmental factors (anonymity, lack of social presence) on malicious comments. As a result of the study, we discovered that the influence of online environmental factors was not found, but neutralization of malicious comments had strong direct influence on malicious comments and moderating effect of gender difference. Based on the results of this study, we discuss academic and practical implications and suggest limitations of research and future research directions.

OECD 국가들과 마찬가지로 한국의 청년실업문제는 매우 심각하다. 높은 청년실업문제는 경제성장에 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 출산, 범죄 등의 심각한 사회적 문제를 초래할 수 있다. 창업은 단순히 청년들의 단기적 직업을 제공할 뿐만 아니라 미래 사회가 필요로 하는 인적자원을 개발시키는 역할을 담당하고 있다. 즉, 청년층인 대학생들의 창업을 북돋울 수 있는 방안과 연관된 연구는 매우 중요하다. 본 연구의 목적은 대학생의 기업가정신이 창업동기에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 이들 관계에서조절초점성향의 조절효과를 검증하는 것이다. 본 연구를 위해 강원지역 대학생들을 대상으로 한 342부의 설문지가 최종분석에 사용되었다. 연구 분석을 통해 확인된 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 대학생의 기업가정신은 창업의도에 영향을 미칠 것이라는 가설을 설정했으며 실증연구에서 이를 확인할 수 있었다. 둘째, 기업가 정신이 창업의도에 미치는 영향에 있어서 성별의 조절효과를 확인하였다. 기업가정신이 남녀 모두에 있어 창업의도에 정(+)의 상관관계를 가지며 그 영향력은 남성에 비해 여성이 더 크다는 것을 확인하였다. 셋째, 대학생의 촉진초점이 남녀 모두에 있어서 창업의도에 정(+)의 상관관계를 가지며 그 영향력은 남성에 비해 여성이 크다는 것을 확인하였다.
