The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of Web site usability on trust, satisfaction, and repurchase intention in Internet shopping malls. The Web site usability construct consists of the factors such as contents, ease of use, navigation, and interactivity. In order to accomplish the purpose of this study, a research model was established and it suggests that the Web site usability, through the mediation of trust and satisfaction, eventually affect the repurchase intention of online customers in Internet shopping malls. The results of the study show that Web site usability has statistically significant effect on the repurchase intention of online customers and this effect is mediated by satisfaction. This research confirms the importance of usability construct in designing Web sites and understanding the use of Web sites. Implications of these findings are discussed for researchers and practitioners.

This study purports to investigate the determinants of intent to leave of dental hygienists working at dental clinics. The sample used in this study consisted of 356 dental hygienists selected from nationwide Korea. The independent variables contain three groups of determinants: 6 structural variables, 2 psychological variables and one environmental variable. Job satisfaction and organizational commitment were included in the model as intervening variables. Data were collected with self-administered questionnaires and analyzed using path analysis. The results of the path analysis indicate that the following variables have significant total effects on the intent to leave of dental hygienists: organizational commitment, supervisory support, job satisfaction, alternative job opportunity, positive affectivity, role conflict and job autonomy. The results imply that the administrators of dental clinics should make an effort to motivate dental hygienists by redesigning their work process, to provide them with more autonomy in doing their work, and to develop their job knowledge and skills through continuous training and education.

This study intended to exploratively testify human error causing factors for railway traffic controller, using AMOS structural equation model. Through literature survey, fatigue and stress as exogenous variable, errors in information process such as cognitive, memory, storage, and execution error as endogenous variable, and accident and incident(near-miss) as dependent variable were set up. Results based on AMOS using 201 railway traffic controllers' questionnaire showed that a clear causality loop like as 'stress ${\rightarrow}$ memory error ${\rightarrow}$ storage error ${\rightarrow}$ incident(near-miss) ${\rightarrow}$ accident' is formed. This result suggests that for the purpose of mitigation of traffic controller's accident, it is so necessary to reduce memory and execution error in the information processing process based on the effective management of stress, as the precedent of them.

The purpose of this study examines the effects of corporate CSR on corporate image, customer satisfaction, and customer citizenship behavior in order to provide implications for CSR. To verify hypotheses, we conducted a questionnaire survey on university students using Apple, Sony, Sharp, and Kyocera mobile phones, and used structural equation model analysis for 294 units. As a result, four factors, economic responsibility, legal responsibility, ethical responsibility and philanthropic responsibility were derived from corporate social responsibility, and all three factors except for ethical responsibility factors were proved to have a positive effect on corporate image. In addition, corporate image has a positive effect on customer satisfaction and customer civic behavior.

MyData service integrates and manages user's personal data such as finance, credit, etc, and is expected to provide useful information to the user as personal data in various fields are gradually integrated. Discovering factors that affect the intention to use of MyData service is a very important topic for understanding that service. To this end, in this study, the attributes of the MyData service were derived, and the derived service attributes were grouped together by using factor analysis. As a result, we found four factors such as "convenience", "usefulness", "security", and "control". After that, we established our research model to analyze the causal relationship between these four factors and the intention to use of MyData service. According to the analysis results, among the factors of the MyData service attribute, "convenience", "usefulness", and "control" had a significant effect, and "security" did not have a significant effect. In particular, it was confirmed that "control" had the greatest influence on the intention to use. This study suggests that MyData service provider need to make users recognize they are controlling their data and develop services that provide various benefits to users.
