This paper attempts to find out the economic roots of the increasing tendency not to choose the science and engineering (S&E) fields in the colleges. The analysis shows that the relative economic position of the S&E graduates measured in terms of employment quality is not significantly different from that of the non-S&E graduates. But the S&E graduates earn relatively low wage and self-employment income. Furthermore, the relative income of the top 5% bracket of the S&E graduates has been declining in the recent five years. The paper concludes that low relative income of the average S&E graduates as well as the increasingly lower relative income of the most able S&E personnel, coupled with the increasing compensating differential required for the S&E jobs, is the main reason for the 'avoidance' phenomenon of the S&E fields.

Iksan Export Free Zone which was established for the export promotion, the employment augmentation, the technological improvement and the regional development promotion through the attraction of foreign direct investment is declining function with diminution of foreign direct investment, exportation and employment since the middle of the 1980s. The decline factor of the function was inherent in disregard of the necessary locational factors for Export Free zone's function promotion and without respect to conditions in a choice of location. And the present labor intensive industrial structure of region has some difficulties with a modification of Export Free Zone's industrial structure to a technology intensive industry. According to the lack of coherent policy, a limited plottage and a lack of the extensible space decrease the effect of agglomeration and economic of scale. And the lack of governmental policy to create a dynamic advantage comparative with an amelioration of the locational conditions of region diminish the regional attractive force to foreign direct investment.

This letter proposes a Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DS-SS)-based Flight Termination System(FTS) and show the simulation results and implements the system using FRGAs. The DS-SS FTS has immunity interference signals and the influence of jamming signal. Moreover, a DS-SS FTS can provides effects on an authentication and encryption with spread codes. And the system uses more less power than an analog FM system. We used Reed-Solomon (32, 28) code and triple Data Encryption Standard(3DES) for error correction and data encryption. Also we used counter algorithm for unauthenticated device's attack The spread codes of In-phase channel and Quadrature channel were generated by Gold sequence generators. The system was implemented in Altera APEX20K100E FPGA for the ground system and EPF10K100ARC240-3 for the airborne system.

Background: The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of the income support allowance policy for the care workers on wage level. Methods: The analysis data was constructed using database (DB) of long-term care institution, DB of long-term care personnel status, and DB of health insurance qualification and contribution possessed by National Health Insurance Services. We analyzed the wage status of care workers 2009 to 2016 through basic analysis. We used the difference-in-difference analysis method for the workers who worked in the same institution from 2012 to 2013, The effects of the income allowance policy on wage increase were analyzed. Results: As a result of the net effect of the income support allowance policy, the monthly average wage of the care worker increased by 25,676 won and the hourly wage increased by 478 won. As a result of the analysis, it can be confirmed that the income support allowance policy has achieved some of the goals of raising the wage level of the care workers, and the effect of raising wages for other occupations in the long-term care business can be confirmed. Conclusion: The low wage problem of long-term care workers such as care workers is not the only problem in Korea. In other countries, there are various wage support policies for employees. In particular, it is necessary to refer to the improvement in the treatment of care workers in Japan and wage pass-through in the United States. In addition to wages, there is a need to promote policies to provide employment motivation through efforts to improve their social status and improve their job status and career development for employees in long-term care facilities.

This paper explores the how the disability type, severeness and economic activeness affects marital satisfaction, and seeks to improve marital satisfaction among disabled by clarifying mediating effects of discriminatory experiences in everyday experiences. This research was done with 3,463 married disabled who were prone to everyday discrimination, among whom were enrolled in research database of Employment Development Institute of Korea Employment Promotion Agency for the Disabled. The research showed positive effects between marital satisfaction and everyday discriminatory experience except for unemployed people and severe among all the disabled type (external disability, sensory disability, mental disability, internal disability), disability severeness (severe and light), and economic activeness (paid workers, self-employed, home-worker, unemployed, not economically active). Also, relationship between disability type, severeness, economical activeness and marital satisfaction was partly mediated through everyday discriminatory experiences. Therefore, active movements to reduce everyday discrimination are strongly advised.

본(本) 거시경제모형(巨視經濟模型)은 "케인즈"적인 소득지출모형(所得支出模型)으로서, 최근 개방화 및 자율화추세에 따라 크게 변모한 경제구조하에서 예측의 정확도를 높이고 대내외여건(對內外與件) 변화(變化)에 기인한 제반 영향을 보다 명확하게 분석하기 위해서 작성되었다. 모형(模型)의 구조(構造)는 6개 부문, 162개의 방정식으로 구성되어 있으며, 70년대와 80년대의 구조변화(構造變化)를 고려하여 1982년부터 1991년까지를 추정대상 기간으로 삼았다. 기존의 KDI 분기모형과 비교할 때 본(本) 개정모형(改定模型)의 가장 두드러진 특징은 총량변수를 항목별로 세분하여 대내외여건 변화시 경제에 마치는 영향을 기존의 총량수준보다 한 단계 더 세분화된 수준에서 파악하고자 한 점이다. 또한 각종 가격변수들의 시장조절기능(市場調節機能)을 반영하기 위해서 금리(金利), 임금(賃金), 환율(換率) 등을 내생화(內生化)하였고, 총통화(總通貨)와 장기자본수지(長期資本收支) 등도 모형내에서 결정되도록 하였다. 역사적(歷史的) 시뮬레이션의 결과, 주요 내생변수의 평균자승근퍼센트오차가 5% 내외의 양호한 수준을 나타냄으로써 본(本) 모형(模型)이 80년대의 구조변화(構造變化)를 적절히 반영하고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 정책(政策)시뮬레이션은 원유 및 원자재수입가격과 같은 해외여건(海外與件) 변화(變化)와, 기타건설(其他建設), 정부소비지출(政府消費支出), 국내민간신용(國內民間信用)의 확대와 같은 정책변화(政策變化)의 두 부문으로 나누어 시행하였다. 원유 및 원자재가격의 상승은 우리 경제에 부(負)의 공급충격(供給衝擊)으로 작용함으로써 성장을 둔화시키고 물가를 상승시켰으며, SOC 투자를 포함한 기타건설(其他建設)의 증가(增加), 정부소비지출(政府消費支出),의 확대(擴大), 민간신용(民間信用)의 증가(增加)는 모두 단기적으로 경기부양의 효과는 있으나 장기적으로 물가를 더욱 상승시키는 것으로 나타나 물가(物價)와 성장(成長)이 서로 상충관계에 있는 것으로 파악되었다.

The purpose of this study is to verify the mediating effect of pay satisfaction on the relation between procedural justice and organizational commitment. A survey was conducted to examine the mediating effect of pay satisfaction on the responses of 529 employees. The study chose sex, age, education, position, job type and career as control variable, and the regression model which treated procedural justice as independent variable and organizational commitment as criterion variables were set. A pay satisfaction was supposed as mediating variable of these relationships. The data analysis was conducted by SAS 9.4ver and LISREL 8.80. The results of this study confirm underneath the followings. First, the relation of procedural justice and organizational commitment are significantly unique. Second, procedural justice are positively related to pay satisfaction. Third, pay satisfaction is significantly positively related to organizational commitment. Fourth, the pay satisfaction is partially mediated on the relationship between procedural justice and organizational commitment. This means that the pay satisfaction mediates the relation of procedural justice and organizational commitment. These results are different from the prior researches which had treated pay satisfaction as mediating variable of procedural justice and organizational commitment. Based on the findings of the study, this study presented managerial implications and suggestions for future studies.

This study reviews the industrialization process of the United States-Mexico Borderlands and the economic relations between the U.S. and Mexico and examines their impact on the borderlands. Main factor in the industrialization of the borderlands was the U.S. investment on the maquiladora program of Mexico since 1965. It contributed to the increase in employment and population of borderlands and the development of service industries. Low wage level of Mexico induced not only standardized labor-intensive industries but also the high-tech automated industries because they still use a lot of labor in manufacturing and assembly process, while the functions of management. R & D, and distribution remained in the U.S. This is a typical case of international division of labor and satellite industrial district. The rules of origin in NAFTA, however forced branch Plants of multinational companies to form the local linkages between firms.

This paper attempts to select the attributes of job creation and to rank them for evaluation of companies' job creation. And the results of this paper are expected to provide the information for the polices of job creation. In doing so, this paper applies fuzzy decision making analysis that reflects ambiguity and uncertainty in decision-making process. According to the results, the weight of quality of employment is similar with that of quantity of employment. In addition, annual employment growth rate, annual net employment are ranked as first and the percentage of irregular employment, the average length of employment of all workers, average monthly wages of all workers, and employment growth over sales growth rate are next ranked.
