As an alternative to solving social problems, social economic actors are attracting attention as an important alternative. SPC is a private program that pays incentives according to the social performance measured by monetary value. This study measured efficiency by applying DEA to social enterprises that participated in the SPC program and analyzed the factors affecting efficiency through tobit regression. As a result of DEA analysis, it was found that 21% of social enterprises participating in SPC were efficient, but 66% needed to improve their efficiency. In the Tobit regression analysis, the efficiency was relatively low in the case of manufacturing sector, and when the square term of sales is included, the efficiency decreases as sales increase. Through this, it was estimated that external support is needed at a low level sales before crossing the critical point, and that the efficiency of social value creation increases when it grows above a certain level. Moreover, it is significant in that it combines the variables used in the analysis of traditional industrial efficiency while conducting efficiency analysis focusing on the social performance by monetary value, which is considered the most important achievement of social enterprises. It is believed that it will contribute to research related to the environment creation and the requirements of each field in creating social values for social enterprises in the future.

신약개발은 국민의 건강권과 직결되며 국가 차원의 제약산업 육성을 위해 매우 중요하다. 그동안 신약개발 분야와 관련하여 다양한 연구가 수행되었지만, 신약개발 분야의 국가연구개발사업에 대한 효율성 분석은 매우 부족한 실정이다. 특히 R&D 분야는 연구개발시차, 일출효과(spill-over effect) 등으로 인해 투입과 산출의 일정한 방향성과 등비율적인 증감을 가정하는 CCR 모형이 적합하지 않다. 또한 가변규모수익을 가정하는 BCC 모형도 여유분(slack)으로 인해 의사결정단위간의 명확한 우선순위 도출이 어려운 한계점이 있다. 최근에는 R&D 분야의 특수성을 고려해서 자료포락분석 모형 중 RAM(Range Adjusted Measure) 모형을 활용한 분석방법이 제시되고 있다. RAM 모형은 가변규모수익 가정 하에 투입지향이나 산출지향처럼 방향성에 대한 사전적인 가정 없이 비효율성을 최대한 제거하는 방향으로 효율성을 측정하므로 R&D 분야의 효율성 분석에 적합하다. 특히 RAM 모형은 매우 강건한 단조성을 인해 의사결정단위 간 명확한 순위 구분도 용이하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 자료포락분석 모형 중 RAM 모형과 토빗 회귀분석이 결합된 2단계 접근법을 활용해서 범부처전기신약개발사업을 중심으로 신약개발 분야의 국가연구개발사업들에 대한 효율성을 분석하고 주요 시사점들을 논의하였다.

This study analyzes changes in the efficiency of the Department of Early Childhood Education in Korea to examine the effectiveness of the National Evaluation for Teacher Education Institution. We provide policy implications from exploring factors influencing efficiency and comparing characteristics of efficient and inefficient departments. With 149 Department of Early Childhood Education in Korea, DEA was conducted to estimate the relative efficiency, and the Tobit model was applied to explore factors affecting efficiency. The results confirm that the Department of Early Childhood in Korea is run efficiently, though there was no change in scale efficiency and relative efficiency after the two phases of the National Evaluation for Teacher Education Institution. The results show the number of books per student was significantly lower despite a significantly higher employment rate. Efficiency of college departments, department greater than 60 (per cohort), and department in metropolitan city (except Seoul area) is confirmed greater. These results provide policy implications on developing evaluation measure and processes to improve education quality and efficiency.

This paper examines the levels and influence factors on efficiency of public libraries in metropolitan cities. For this purpose, In the first stage, the efficiency score analysis of 129 sample public libraries has been undertaken. In the second stage, the efficiency scores obtained from the first stage are regressed on environmental factors. The result of this study shows that : (1) main source of technical inefficiency is pure technical inefficiency rather than scale inefficiency; (2) it is positive effect environmental factors on the efficiency that the population, the dummy variable of capital area.

The cafeteria of university is one of the largest consumption point for the chicken meat of university students. However, few papers conducted research to analyze the consumption behavior of university students. The object of this paper is to conduct survey analysis about the students' behavior for consumption of chicken meat at the cafeterias of university and to measure WTP (Willingness-to-pay) for food cooked with domestic chicken meat. The results present that most of students show higher preference of domestic chicken meat and that they can pay 4,426 Korean won for food cooked with domestic chicken meat.

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the efficiency and productivity change and inefficiency cause of the korean non-life insurance companies of the before($1993{\sim}1996$) and after($1998{\sim}2004$) of IMF. we use DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) model to measure company efficiency and MPI(Malmquist productivity indices) to measure company productivity change and Tobit regression to analyze inefficiency cause. we utilize ten non-life insurance companies in korea and the time-series data for eleven from 1993 to 2004 except 1997. The empirical results show the following findings. First, total cost efficiency shows that the after of IMF decrease of 3.7% over the before of IMF and MPI change indicates that the after of IMF increase 7.7% over the before IMF. Second, the results of Tobit regression to analysis the cause of inefficiency show that total cost efficiency is positively related invested assets, acquisition expenses ratio, collection expenses ratio and is negatively related solicitors ratio, personnel expenses ratio, land & buildings expenses ratio, loss ratio, net operating expenses ratio. Especially inefficiency of small-to-mid sized companies is main cause of total cost efficiency of non-life insurance companies in korea. Small-to-mid sized companies endeavored various aspects of business strategies.

This paper empirically analyses patterns of time allocation of the elderly, examining economic participation and volunteer work or social activities under the assumption that such activities have positive effects not only on the individuals and on the local communities but also on the society as a whole. As the result of descriptive analysis on the Korean Time Use Survey 1999, 2004 and 2009, the adults aged 60 to 64 years decrease time for paid work rapidly while increase time for passive leisure comparably slowly. In terms of time for active leisure, they devote less time to volunteer work and social activities, however, more time to self-centered activities such as education, cultural events, sport and fitness, and religious work. The overall pattern of decrease in time on economic or social participation for the elderly appeared be more significant in the birth cohorts of the early 1940s than those born in the late 1930s. The analysis implies that it is necessary for the government to encourage them to participate in community activities, either economic or social, with necessary policy responses. The result of the Tobit analysis on the dependent variables of each type of the 6 leisure activities demonstrated the self-centered active leisure time has increased over the last decaseds, whose pattern appeared to be more strengthened when the proportion of the elderly with higher education has increased.

The Bayesian method can be applied successfully to the estimation of the censored regression model introduced by Tobin (1958). The Bayes estimates show improvements over the maximum likelihood estimate; however, the performance of the Bayesian interval estimation is questionable. In Bayesian paradigm, the prior distribution usually reflects personal beliefs about the parameters. Such subjective priors will typically yield interval estimators with poor frequentist properties; however, an objective noninformative often yields a Bayesian procedure with good frequentist properties. We examine the performance of frequentist properties of noninformative priors for the Tobit regression model.

In this study, to verify influence that economic situations of a household unit have on donation behavior, after economic situations of a household unit were measured with income and assets by type and income to assets, effect which each variable has on secular giving was verified. This study used 3-year panel data of a total of 4,938 households based on the fifth to seventh year data as investigation data from 2012 to 2014 among data of financial panel investigation of Korea Institute of Public Finance of National Survey of Tax and Benefit. As an analysis method, a random effect tobit model was used. At the analysis result, it appeared that as scales of financial assets, earned income, property income, and transfer income become larger, the amount of donation increased. Also, it was represented that rates of income to assets had negative influence on secular giving. In case of demographic variables, education levels of householders and sizes of houses had relation of a positive direction. In case of ages, it appeared that they had inverted U-type relation. This study has meanings in that understanding of donation behavior of a household unit can be increased and expanded more and also implications related to intervention strategies of a household unit to expand sharing culture can be extracted by verifying influence which economic factors of a household unit have on donation behavior based on panel data.
