Especially delivery apps by mobile service market is experiencing rapid growth and competition is intensifying. Therefore, delivery apps' choice attributes has become important as a strategy for survival of franchise firms. Based on previous studies, this research proposed the theoretical framework about the structural relationships among customer satisfaction, trust and revisit intention on delivery apps' choice attributes. Research design, data, and methodology - This study examines the structural relationship between choice attributes of using the delivery app, satisfaction, trust, and revisit intention. More specifically, this study has been examined from the perspective of Generation Y who is enjoying electronic commerce and shopping with mobile phone. In this model, choice attributes of delivery app consists of three sub-dimensions such as service quality, system quality, interaction quality. So as to test the purposes of this study, research model and hypotheses were developed. After excluding 24 invalid respondent questionnaires, 201 valid questionnaires were coded and analyzed using frequency, confirmatory factor analysis, correlations analysis, and structural equation modeling with SPSS 21 and SmartPLS 3.0. Result - The results of the study are as follows. First, service quality and interaction quality had positive effects on satisfaction, and interaction quality had positive effects on trust, but system quality did not have a significant effect on both satisfaction and trust. Second, satisfaction had positive effects on both trust and revisit intention. Third, trust had positive effects on revisit intention. Conclusions - The implications of this study are following as: From the theoretical perspective, this study confirms the effect of delivery apps' choice attributes on satisfaction, trust, and revisit intention. In addition, it is significant that we examined the influence of choice attributes of delivery apps on their attitudes and behaviors of Generation Y familiar with mobile environment. Through this study, we hypothesized that the attributes of service quality and interaction quality of delivery apps have a significant effect on customer satisfaction, and this can be expected to provide meaningful implications for the development of franchise restaurant industry. To encourage continuous repurchase through customer satisfaction, franchise companies need to establish various strategic alliances with delivery app companies and new growth engines by providing diverse and high-quality services to customers in the smart age.

Purpose - Previous studies about corporate image generally explore how corporate image affects a company's effectiveness from the consumer view. However this study attempts to explore the impacts of corporate image (reliability, friendly, corporate social responsibility, and innovation) on employees' altruistic behaviors in the franchise industry context. This study also examine whether organizational trust and affective commitment play a mediating role in the relationship between corporate image and employees' altruistic behaviors. The authors developed several hypotheses to achieve these purposes. Research design, data, and methodology - The data were collected from employees in food-service franchise companies located in Seoul, Korea. Among a total of 363 questionnaires distributed, 294(response rate of 81%) questionnaires were returned. After excluding 18 invalid respondent questionnaires, 276 valid questionnaires(response rate of 76%) were coded and analyzed using frequency, confirmatory factor analysis, correlations analysis, and structural equation modeling with SPSS 21 and SmartPLS 3.0. Result - The findings of the study are as follows: First, friendly, CSR, and innovation had positive effects on organizational trust, but reliability did not have a significant effect on organizational trust. Second, reliability and friendly of corporate image had positive effects on affective commitment, but CSR and innovation did have a significant effect on affective commitment. Third, organizational trust and affective commitment had positive effects on employees' altruistic behaviors. Conclusions - The aim of this study is to investigate the franchise corporate image as a significant influencing factor of employees' altruistic behaviors. The data were collected from only employees from franchising companies. The findings might vary from position to position. Future studies need to collect and compare data from managers. Future studies need to consider other variables that affect employees' altruistic behaviors. For example, leadership and market orientation might influence employees' attitude and behaviors. Also, future research should include other variables and it may have limitations in sample representative because of sampling franchise corporate in Seoul. Future studies will include franchise corporate all over the country. Future studies can also consider other variables (e.g., job performance and turnover intentions) to measure employee performance at the level of individuals and identify the impact of employee performance on business performance at the level of corporate.

Purpose - Recently, entrepreneurship education has been revitalized with interest in entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship education is an educational service activity that is provided for entrepreneurship and individual start-up success within a certain period of time. According to previous studies on entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship, the satisfaction of entrepreneurship education affects entrepreneurship and as a result increases entrepreneurship. In recent years, the number of female entrepreneurs has also increased as the number of entrepreneurial issues has increased. Based on previous studies, this research proposed the theoretical framework about the structural relationships among mentoring quality (career development, psychological social, role modeling), education satisfaction, recommendation intention and entrepreneurial intention. This study is to find out the possibility of attempting to create a theoretical basis for entrepreneurial mentoring education in entrepreneurship education program. Research design, data, and methodology - In this model, mentoring quality consists of three sub-dimensions such as career development, psychological social, and role modeling. In order to test research model and hypotheses, the data were collected from 203 female college students who participated in entrepreneurial education. The data were analyzed using frequency analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, correlation analysis, and structural equational modeling with SPSS 24.0 and SmartPLS 3.0 statistical program. Result - The results of the study are as follows. First, role modeling has a positive effect on recommendation intention and entrepreneurial intention. Second, career development has a strong negative effect on the entrepreneurial intention. Third, career development and role modeling had a positive effect on educational satisfaction, and educational satisfaction had positive influence on recommendation intention and entrepreneurial intention. Conclusions - As women's social advancement becomes more active, start-up support programs including entrepreneurship mentoring are increasing. The results of this study suggest how to use the mentoring program mix and how to allocate the resources for the education program when the entrepreneurial education manager plans and executes the mentoring education program. For example, this study shows that career development and role modeling enhance educational satisfaction, and in turn increase recommendation intention and entrepreneurial intention. This means that entrepreneurship education should consist of contents that include career development functions such as sponsorship, guidance, protection, and provision of challenging work. In addition, the findings of this study indicate that mentors should perform the function of allowing the participants to have confidence and professional thinking ability at the time of start up based on their experiences.

Among the 300 questionnaires distributed, 260 (86.7%) questionnaires were returned. Of those collected questionnaires, 6 uncompleted responses were excluded, and 254 questionnaires with an effective response rate of 84.7% were coded and analyzed using frequency, confirmatory factor analysis, and correlations analysis, and structural equation modeling with SPSS 21.0 and SmartPLS 3.0. Results - The findings of the study are as follows. First, franchisor leadership had a negative effect on franchisee dissatisfaction, but franchisee marketing efforts did not have a significant effect on franchisee dissatisfaction. Second, franchisee dissatisfaction had a positive effect on switching intentions. Third, franchisor leadership had a negative effect on switching intentions, but franchisee marketing efforts did not have a significant effect on switching intentions. Conclusions - This study researched the franchisor's leadership as a single factor of transformational leadership. Thus, it may have limits in measuring leadership. Future studies shall include emotional, loyal, and transactional leadership. In addition, the future studies shall also research the effect of franchisor's leadership and franchisees' marketing efforts on dissatisfaction and switching intentions. For example, the franchisor's relationship-oriented efforts can be a crucial parameter that reduces dissatisfaction and switching intentions.

Purpose - Recently, the franchise business has made remarkable progress, but many conflicts have occurred. From this perspective, this paper explains how to improve the long - term relationship between franchisor and franchisee by integrating the relationship between franchisor of franchise business and franchisee. This study aims to identify the franchisee's economic and social satisfaction and to examine their influences on calculative and affective commitment, and loyalty. At the end of this paper, theoretical and managerial implication were suggested. Research design, data, and methodology - The data were collected from owners and store managers in franchisees located in Seoul, Korea. The trained researchers contacted owners and managers of the franchise stores. The questionaires were distributed to owners and managers consented to respond. The collected questionnaires were used for the final analysis of 324 copies(243 store owners and 81 store managers), except for 26 copies of the untrustworthy response out of 350 copies. The data were analyzed with SPSS, 21.0 and SmartPls 3.0 Result - The results of the study are as follows. First, economic satisfaction effects both calculative and affective commitment, but social satisfaction does not. Second, both calculative and affective commitment have positive effects on loyalty. Third, economic satisfaction has a positive impact on loyalty, but social satisfaction does not. Conclusions - The implications of this study are following as: From the theoretical perspective, this study analyze the satisfaction and commitment of the franchisee from the multidimensional perspective by analyzing the effects of the franchisee on two dimensions of economic and social satisfaction and on calculative and affective commitment. That is, this study explains the trade-off between economica and social satisfaction, and between calculative and affective commitment. From the managerial perspective, the results of this study suggest that the economic satisfaction of the franchise headquarters felt by franchisees should be prioritized over social satisfaction. Especially at the early stage of the contract, economic satisfaction should be given priority over social satisfaction. However, since affective and calculative commitment have a significant effect on loyalty, social satisfaction factors should not be excluded by focusing on only economic ones. In other words, the franchisors should not only think of franchisees as a source of sales and profits, but should respect franchisees and maintain loyal relationships with friends.

온라인 뱅킹 서비스의 성공을 위해서는 이용 고객의 신뢰를 제고하는 것이 필수적이다. 현재까지 인터넷 뱅킹 이용자들의 신뢰를 제고하는 보안 메커니즘으로 공인인증 서비스가 가장 유력한 대안으로 사용되어 왔다. 그러나 최근 공인인증서를 통한 보안 메커니즘은 해커 등 악의적인 사용자의 침입에 취약할 수 있다는 주장이 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 온라인 뱅킹 보안 메커니즘의 견고성을 높이기 위한 추가적인 대안으로 공인인증서 사용과 관련된 과정의 투명성과 결과 피드백의 투명성이라는 두 가지 요소를 제안하였다. 과정의 투명성은 거래과정에 대한 정보를 이용자에게 제공함으로써 거래 과정을 통제할 수 있도록 하는 것이다. 결과 피드백은 거래결과를 이용자에게 알려줌으로써 이용자가 거래가 의도한 대로 완료되었음을 확인할 수 있도록 하는 것이다. 정보의 투명성에 관한 선행 연구에 따르면, 거래과정과 결과에 대한 정보를 제공하여 투명성을 제고하면 정보시스템 이용자의 의사결정 품질이 제고된다. 거래과정에 대한 정보의 투명성이 확보되면, 정보시스템 이용자들은 거래가 원활하게 수행되고 있는지를 확인할 수 있게 되고, 거래 과정과 결과를 자신이 의도한 대로 통제할 수 있게 되기 때문에, 이용자들의 거래 위험을 감소시킬 수 있다. "구조기반 신뢰" 에 대한 연구에 따르면, 정보시스템 이용자들은 자신들이 성공적으로 거래를 할 수 있도록 구조적인 요소를 제공하는 서비스 제공자들을 보다 신뢰하는 속성이 있다. 거래과정과 거래결과를 확인할 수 있는 정보의 투명성은 정보시스템 이용자가 거래를 원활하게 추진할 수 있는 구조적 기반을 제공하므로 서비스 제공자에 대한 신뢰는 증가하게 된다. 거래 위험이 감소하고 신뢰가 증가되면, 이용자들은 제공되는 서비스에 대해 보다 만족하게 되고, 따라서 서비스 제공자에 대해 충성도가 제고되거나 서비스에 대해 지불 의사를 가지게 될 것이다. 본 연구에서는 실험실 실험을 통해 연구 가설 및 연구 모델을 실증적으로 검증하고자 하였다. 실험설계는 과정의 투명성과 결과의 투명성이라는 두 가지 요인에 따라 $2{\times}2$ 집단으로 구성하여 진행하였다. 공인인증서 사용과 관련된 과정의 투명성과 결과 피드백 요소가 현재 온라인 뱅킹 사이트에서 제공되고 있지 않기 때문에 가상의 온라인 뱅킹 사이트를 구축하여 실험을 진행하였다. 총 138개의 유효한 자료를 실험을 통해 수집하였으며 PLS 알고리즘을 활용하여 분석을 진행하였다. 분석 결과, 과정의 투명성은 온라인 뱅킹 거래의 위험을 줄이고 온라인 뱅킹 사이트에 대한 신뢰를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 결과 피드백은 온라인 뱅킹 사이트에 대한 신뢰를 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이렇게 증가된 신뢰와 감소된 거래위험은 서비스 만족도를 증가시킴으로써 온라인 뱅킹 서비스 이용 고객의 서비스에 대한 지불의도와 온라인 뱅킹 사이트에 대한 충성도를 증가시키는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구에서는 온라인 뱅킹 서비스의 보안이라는 주제에 대해 정보의 투명성이 보안에 미치는 영향을 실증자료를 통해 분석함으로써 온라인 보안 메커니즘 연구의 범위를 확대하였을 뿐만 아니라 실제 구현이 가능한 보안 메커니즘에 대한 효과를 검증함으로써 실무적 측면에서의 동헌도가 있다고 판단된다.
