The purpose of this study is to examine the differences among the income level groups of young single-person households and newlywed households in factors affecting the choice of residential location in the Seoul metropolitan region. To summarize the results of the analysis, first, there were differences in the factors affecting the choice of residential location by income level in both single-person young households and newlyweds. Second, among young households, the low-income group showed a behavior of choosing a residential location based on bounded rationality considering the economic condition of the household. Third, even though the income level is similar, the difference in the factors for choosing a residential location between single-person young households and newlywed households was confirmed, which is results of the life-cycle changes. These results imply that it is necessary to prepare appropriate housing policies that can supplement the economic conditions of young households living in the Seoul metropolitan region, and to review customized housing policies that reflect changes in life-cycle stages as well as age or income level.

In this paper, we attempt to study the trend of regional disparity among Chinese provinces and examine the effects of globalization on the disparities adapting panel data approach. The panel data set utilized consists of the annual variables of 29 provinces during 18 years from 1990 to 2007. The trend of inter-provincial disparities in the 1990s with the expansive trend but the trend has started to decrease since 2000. The results of the China case study show clearly that the provincial international trade level and ratio variables perform on regional income disparities remarkably in all cases. It means that the large development of international trade do with increased among provincial disparity. While due to the large area in the provinces, there exist urban-rural disparities within provinces could be one of the main source of regional disparities. Therefore, along with western regions development policy various development policies against small cities are necessary for balanced regional economic growth in China.

Recent migration is led by skilled labor, This paper performes a cross-country analysis to find the determinants of skilled migration using recently released Doquier and Marfouk(2005) data as dependent variable and economic indicators of nations as independent variables. Regression results show that the skilled migration to OECD countries are driven not only by income motive but also by structural factors, such as industrial structure and life expectancy, which have broader meanings in development. It is noteworthy that structural factors of a nation become more important as its income level rises. English seems to have positive effect on skilled migration. Some region-specific factors, proximity to USA of Caribbean countries and political instability of Gold Coast countreis, for example, are found. Middle-income countries seem to be the most vulnerable to the possible risk of brain drain.

우리나라의 외식산업은 경제적 안정을 통한 소득수준 증대, 여성의 사회진출 및 맞벌이 세대의 증가, 건강식에 대한 소비자 욕구 증대 등 사회, 경제, 문화적 요인이 복합적으로 작용하여 다양한 컨셉의 외식업소들이 등장하기 시작하였고, 양적인 면에서 급속한 성장을 해 오고 있다. 그러나 외식업 경영주의 경영면에서의 전략적 사고와 정보의 부재, 서비스 마인드 결여, 높은 종업원 이직율과 전문인력 부족, 연구풍토의 결여 및 과다한 출혈 경쟁 등으로 인하여 외식산업은 질적인 면에서 많은 취약점을 드러내고 있다. (중략)

The purpose of this study is to analyze the middle-aged adults' mobile information behavior focused on their demographic characteristics. To achieve the aim of this study data were collected from 50 to 64 years old middle-aged adults who live in different size of cities and towns in Korea using self-designed questionnaire through online and offline survey. Gender, academic background, income level, size of residential zone, physical condition, and occupation were adopted as demographic characteristics, and type of mobile contents use, hour of mobile use, ability of mobile use, persistency of mobile use, and usability of mobile were used as the mobile information behavior in this study. Total of 191 valid data were analysed using SPSS Ver. 21. The results of this empirical study revealed that there exist a significant difference between some of their demographical characteristics (e.g., academic backgrounds, income level, and occupation) and mobile information behaviors particularly in their contents use.

Early diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) can reduce the incidence of dementia. This study developed the MCI prediction model for the elderly in Korea. The subjects of this study were 3,240 elderly (1,502 men, 1,738 women) aged 65 and over who participated in the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Aging (KLoSA) in 2012. Outcome variables were defined as MCI prevalence. Explanatory variables were age, marital status, education level, income level, smoking, drinking, regular exercise more than once a week, average participation time of social activities, subjective health, hypertension, diabetes Respectively. The prediction model was developed using Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) neural network. As a result, age, sex, final education, subjective health, marital status, income level, smoking, drinking, regular exercise were significant predictors of MCI prediction model of rural elderly people in Korea using RBM neural network. Based on these results, it is required to develop a customized dementia prevention program considering the characteristics of high risk group of MCI.

90년부터 시행하고 있는 한국전력공사의 발전소 주변 지역 지원 사업이 사업 시행 8년째를 맞았다. 그간의 사업 시행 결과 발전소 주변 지역의 복지 수준이 크게 향상되었으며, 특히 도로 시설$\cdot$복지 회관 등의 공공 시설 확충과 육영 사업은 지역 주미의 호응 속에 괄목할 만한 성과를 거두고 있다. 근래에 와서는 소득 증대 사업의 집중 지원과 아울러 특별 사업, 사업 자금 융자 등으로 지역 주민의 관심이 더욱 높아지고 있다. 97년 지원 규모는 793억원으로 계획되어 있으나, 97년 1월 13일 지원법 개정으로 지원 규모가 전기 판매 수익금의 1.12$\%$로 확대됨에 따라, 현재 추진중인 지원법 시행령이 개정되면 연간 1,100억원 수준으로 대폭 확대될 전망이다.

지방자치제도의 본격적인 실시로 인하여 성숙되어 가고 있는 지방화시대에 있어서 지방자치단체가 가장 필요로 하는 것은 지역의 경제성장을 통하여 지역주민의 복지를 향상시키는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 지역주민의 복지향상은 광범위한 부문에서 다양하게 나타날 수 있지만, 가장 기본적으로는 지역내의 고용을 안정케 하며, 지역내의 소득수준을 향상시켜 주민들이 높은 삶의 질을 경험하게 하는 것이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나, 지금의 우리현실은 자기 지역의 경제발전만을 맹목적으로 추구할 것이 아니라 이웃과 더불어 힘을 합쳐도 어려운 난관을 헤쳐나가기 어려운 처지에 직면해 있다. 따라서, 서로가 자기의 몫을 주장하면서 다툴 것이 아니라 힘을 합쳐야 할 시점에 도달하였다. 이러한 관점에서 본 연구는 지리적으로는 인접하고 있지만 정서적으로는 가깝고도 먼 전라남도와 경상남도가 고부가가치를 창출할 수 있는 특화산업의 적절한 배치를 통하여 높은 수준의 경제번영을 이룩하면서, 동시에 기존의 쌓여있는 지역감정의 벽을 뛰어넘어 동서경제협력을 이루고 궁극적으로는 동서화합을 도출할 수 있는 방안을 모색하려고 한다. 각 지자체에 적합한 특화산업의 육성은 인접한 지자체들이 상호의존적이라는 측면에서 여러 가지의 지역문제를 동시에 하결할 수 있을 뿐만아니라 한정된 자원의 합리적인 이용과 더불어 국토의 균형있는 개발을 가능하게 할 수 있다는 측면에서 많은 긍정적인 요소를 내포하고 있다. 전라남도와 경상남도가 지역에 적합한 특화산업의 육성을 통하여 동서경제협력을 유도하기 위한 방안으로는 우선적으로 역내의 산업구조를 고도화시키고, 산 학 연 관의 협조체계를 구성하며, 지자체간의 협조적인 게임을 유도하여 가시적인 빠른성과의 도출을 위한 방안을 모색하고 타 지자체에 입지한 경쟁력있는 특화산업에의 지역민의 투자를 유도하고, 공동브랜드의 사용 및 시장의 공동개척등을 고려할 수 있을 것이다.
