This study aims to provide empirical evidence on the causal relationship between bribery and firm innovation. To this end, we use a micro-dataset of small and medium firms in Vietnam surveyed in 2015. Given the binary nature of the dependent variable, a simple probit regression model is employed. However, as bribery variable is potentially endogenous, a simple probit regression may give biased estimates. We deal with the potential endogeneity by making use of the bivariate probit model. A property of the bivariate probit model is that it can produce efficient estimates of a typical probit model with endogenous binary explanatory variable. A Hausman-like likelihood ratio test is implemented following the estimation to test the existence of endogeneity. We find that bribery significantly undermines firm innovation. Also, firms run by household appear less innovative. The probability of innovation diminishes significantly if firm owners or managers have previous experience in firm products. As expected, larger firms seem to be more innovative. Exporters tend to be more innovative compared to non-exporters. Our findings provide support to the hypothesis that bribery is detrimental to firm innovation and, thus, innovation may be a mediating channel, through which, bribery impedes firm long-term performance.

This study conducts a survey and test to understand U.S. public's perception about multifunctionality. The questionnaire suggests seven alternative way of providing questions about intangible benefits provided by agriculture in the U.S. The final questionnaire was administered as an e-mail survey in June 2008 to a nationally representative household panel maintained in the U.S. by the Ipsos Observer. Data analysis shows that 64 percent of respondents considered the multifunctionality of agriculiture as an important issue and 45 percent of respondents were in favor of increasing government expenditure to support farmland preservation. Using Fishbein's multi-attribute model as a theoretical background, this paper develops an empirical model to assess and attributes of multifunctionality. For the analysis, bivariate orderd probit model was set up to reflect respondent's attitude. Regression analyses show that two questions (how much you agree with agriculture's intangible benefit and increasing government expenditure to support agriculture) are shaped by different sets of facts.

This paper develops a recursive multinomial probit model and describes its estimation method. The recursive multinomial probit model is an extension of a recursive bivariate probit model. The main difference between the two models is that a single decision among two or more alternatives can be considered in each choice equation in the proposed model. The recursive multinomial probit model is developed based on a standard framework of the multinomial probit model and a Bayesian approach with a Gibbs sampling is adopted for the estimation. The simulation exercise with artificial data sets is showed that the model performed well. Since the recursive multinomial probit model can be applied to analyze the causal relationship between discrete dependent variables with more than two outcomes, the model can play an important role in extending the methodology of the causal relationship analysis in innovation research.

신용평가를 판단하기 어렵기 때문에 평가를 유보하고 특별한 전문가에게 재심사를 의뢰하기 위하여 결정이 보류된 미결정자에 대한 미결정자 추론은 신용평가 분야 이외에도 의학통계와 스포츠통계등 대부분의 통계적 모형에서 발생하는 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 미결정자 추론을 비임의결측 가정하에서의 결측자료 유형으로 간주하고, 표본선택모형 중의 하나인 이변량 프로빗모형을 이용한다. 결정된 차주의 특성을 나타내는 확률변수를 사용하여 미결정자를 추론하는 방법과 보다 정확한 정보를 수집한 후 추가적인 확률변수를 사용하여 추론하는 방법을 제안한다. 실증예제를 통하여 특성변수의 조합과 다양한 미결정 구간, 그리고 절단점의 변동에 따라 미결정자와 전체 오분류율을 비교한다. 미결정구간을 확대하거나 정확한 신용정보를 모형에 추가하여 사용하면 정상 집단과 부도 집단의 정보를 더욱 정확하게 반영할 수 있기 때문에 미결정자와 전체 오분류율의 큰 감소효과를 기대할 수 있다.

It has continuously promoted to scale up the agricultural management body in order to cope with the market-opening pressure such as the UR negotiation, the DDA negotiation, and more conclusions of FTAs and to enhance the competitiveness of our agriculture. This study evaluated the factors associated with production organization participation centered on environmentally-friendly agriculture farmers in order to improve the production efficiency of environmentally-friendly agriculture in the aspect of production. In order to achieve this objective, this study evaluated the factors that contributed to participating in an organization using the bivariate probit model focusing on environmentally-friendly agriculture farmers in Chungnam. This study examined the validity and reliability of the study model through exploratory factor analysis. The results of factor analyses identified four factors: "distribution", "production", "organization operation", and "social capital". The results of the bivariate probit model showed that distribution significantly affected production activities and distribution, organization operation, agricultural income, and gender significantly influenced sale activities. Environmentally-friendly production organization had not been able to provide the productive support that was needed for local farmers to produce environmentally-friendly agricultural products in a region. Additionally, farming education did not provide the information needed by the farmers. Although producers had a network within a production organization, it was operated mainly for administrators. Therefore, participants felt somewhat lacking. This study identified the level of organization of producer organizations in Chungnam area, where environmentally-friendly agriculture is well activated. This study suggested implications for future production organization participation by evaluating factors affecting participation quantitatively.

In order to export Korean spray roses to the China, it is needed to analyse chinese preferences, rose attributes, and purchase intentions. The purpose of this study is to present the implications on the production and distribution of roses for export by analyzing the quality preference attributes and purchase intention of Korean rose for Chinese flower experts. A survey on the preference and purchase intention of Korean flower roses by Chinese flower experts was conducted through face - to - face interviews with flower show participants in China. Approximately 100 Chinese flower experts who participated in the Flower Show in 2016 received the questionnaire, and 86 survey results could be used for analysis. Survey data were analyzed using ordered probit and bivariate probit models. As a result of an analysis, it was found that Chinese flower experts were more likely to buy Korean roses than Chinese roses even if they consider flower color, leaf shape and size and color diversity. The probability of purchasing more than twice the price was higher than that of the color diversity considering the flower shape, leaf shape and size, but the bivariate order probit model was larger than that of flowers, leaves and size, and the order of probability size was changed. In order to increase the export of Korean spray roses to the Chinese market, We need to increase Chinese experts' preferences and satisfaction. For this purpose, it is very important to develop export varieties of roses with large flower buds and shape / coloring, and to apply the useful post-harvest technology that can extend freshness and distribution period of export roses.

The relationship between homeownership and participation in giving and volunteering overall indicates that homeowners are more likely to give and participate in volunteering organizations than renters. This study compared 'giving and participation in volunteering between homeowners(n=6,078) and renters(3,587) in the 14^th Korean Welfare Panel Survey data collected in 2019. The outcome measure of study is a binary outcome of giving and volunteering participation. This study accounted for a bias arising from selection on observables. Specifically, this study employed a recursive bivariate probit model to simultaneously estimate respondents' participation in giving and volunteering participation and their selection of homeownership. Findings from this study have provided some evidence that homeowners and renters have different behaviors in giving and volunteering participation. Finally, issues relating to homeownership and social outcomes were discussed. Implications for social work practice and research were further discussed.

고위험 음주는 개인 건강 뿐 아니라 사회에 막대한 부담을 초래한다. 본 연구는 보건복지부와 서울대학교외 건강위험요인 전국조사 자료에 중도 절단 이변량 프로빗 모형(bivariate probit model with censoring)을 활용하여 한국 사회에서 15세 이상 인구계층의 고위험 음주에 미치는 요인을 규명하였다. 연구결과에 따르면 우리나라에서 소주가 음주 주종 중 고위험 음주와 가장 관련성이 큰 주종임이 밝혀졌다. 그동안 소주의 문제점에 관해서는 대부분 인식하고 있었으나 전국 조사 자료 및 최신 통계분석방법을 적용한 연구가 전무하여 실증적인 뒷받침이 되지 않았던 사실이 밝혀진 셈이다. 또한 나이가 많은 계층, 배우자와 동거하지 않는 계층, 경제활동에 종사하는 계층, 스트레스에 취약한 계층, 다양한 주종을 소비하는 계층이 각각 상대적으로 그렇지 않는 계층에 비해 고위험 음주를 할 가능성이 높았다. 본 연구결과로써 한국 사회에서 음주로 인한 위해를 감소시키기 위해서는 주종별로 차별화된 정책과 함께 고위험 음주 가능성이 상대적으로 높은 인구계층을 대상으로 정부 및 민간 노력이 집중되어야 한다는 정책적 시사점을 도출할 수 있었다.
