  • 코로나19 팬데믹 발생과 엔데믹은 사람들의 식품 소비 패턴에 큰 변화를 유발한 사건으로 여겨진다. 코로나19 발생 이전부터 코로나19가 종식된 시점까지 국내 소비자들의 식생활이 어떻게 변모되어 왔는지 파악할 필요성이 있다. 이에 코로나19 기간을 구분하고 기간에 따른 국내 소비자들의 식품 지출액을 실증적으로 분석하여, 식품 소비 행태를 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 코로나19 기간을 세 가지로 구분하였으며, 분석을 위해 통계청 가계동향조사 마이크로데이터의 월별 식료품 지출액 자료를 2019년 1월부터 2022년 9월까지 활용하였다. 코로나19 기간이 구분되는 두 지점은 국내 첫 코로나19 확진자가 발생한 2020년 1월과 유행 규모가 둔화하고 사회적 거리두기 정책이 완화된 2022년 3월로 설정하였다. 즉, 2019년 1월부터 2020년 1월까지는 PRE-코로나19 (T1), 2020년 2월부터 2022년 2월까지는 INTER-코로나1 9(T2), 2022년 3월부터 2022년 9월까지는 POST-코로나19 (T3)이다. 식품 카테고리는 신선곡물과 가공곡물, 신선채소와 가공채소, 신선과일과 가공과일, 신선수산과 가공수산, 신선축산과 가공축산 지출액을 분석하였으며, 추가적으로 육류 단백질 급원식품 (붉은 육류, 흰살 육류, 햄/소시지/베이컨), 수산 단백질 급원식품 (생선류, 연체류, 갑각류/조개류, 해조류, 어묵/맛살, 수산물통조림), 식물성 단백질 급원식품 (두류, 두부, 두유) 지출액을 분석하였다. 각 식품 카테고리 및 급원식품의 T1 대비 T2의 지출액 변화와 T2 대비 T3의 지출액 변화를 다중회귀분석으로 결과를 도출하였다. 분석 결과, 전반적인 가정 내 식료품 지출액 변화는 T1 대비 T2에 증가하였으며, T2 대비 T3에 감소하는 모습을 보였다. T1에서 T2로 시간이 흐르며 내식이 확대되며 식료품 지출액이 증가할 때, 신선과일과 수산 단백질 (갑각류/조개류) 지출액만 증가하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에, T2에서 T3로 시간이 흐르며 내식이 축소되며 식료품 지출액이 감소할 때, 가공육류와 수산 및 육류 단백질 급원식품 (즉, 햄/소시지/베이컨, 어묵/맛살, 수산물통조림) 지출액만 감소하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 더불어, T1, T2, T3 시간에 따라 식료품 지출액이 변화할 때 식물성 단백질 급원식품인 두유의 지출액은 변동이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 분석 결과는 코로나19라는 전례 없었던 사건이 확산되고 종식되는 시간에 따라 국내 소비자들의 식료품 지출액에 미친 영향을 보여준다.

  • Perceptions of Library and Information (LI) professionals in Nigeria and the impact of COVID-19 on libraries, librarians and library services, were studied. The significance of demographic factors on LI professionals' perception of COVID-19 and its impact on libraries was tested. Descriptive survey design and Purpose sampling technique were adopted. LIS professionals in Nigeria constituted the population, and an online questionnaire designed by the researchers through Microsoft Forms was used. Descriptive analysis of respondents' demographic data and their covid-19 perception were presented in frequencies and percentages using tables while multivariate regression technique was used to test the significance of relationship between variables at P < 0.05. Findings revealed that many (61.4%) of the respondents agreed that COVID-19 is real but have personal reservations. However, 47.5% indicated that COVID-19 is a scientific invention. On the impacts of COVID-19 on libraries, the study found that COVID-19 is a game changer that will enhance the creation of new services by libraries, cause the reconfiguration of library space for safe operations in post-COVID, establishment of new rules and regulations, and more reliance on e-resources. On the test of association, educational qualification of respondents had a significant impact on respondents' perceptions that COVID-19 will reduce the use of library print resources (P-value = 0.005, B: 0.38, [95% CI: 0.115 - 0.646]) and that library will create new services to address the changes caused by COVID-19. Also, educational qualification of respondents significantly influenced respondents' perception that COVID-19 is real. The study recommends that libraries should take advantage of the season to innovate, and that public health institutions should continually educate people on corona virus to disabuse people's mind of conspiracy theories.

  • Purpose: The purposes of this study were to determine the changes in the pattern of patients who were transferred to the emergency room through inter-hospital private institutions and to determine how long transport takes following the COVID-19 outbreak. Methods: This retrospective observational study analyzed the emergency medical services reports of private institutions following the COVID-19 outbreak in South Korea. The study was conducted in Busan between January 19, 2019 and January 18, 2020, and between January 19, 2020 and January 18, 2021. Results: Upon comparing the patient transport times during the "Pre-COVID-19 period" and "COVID-19 period," a significant delay was noticed in the preparation for transfer of patients during the "COVID-19 period" (p<.05). There were significantly more patients with respiratory infections and patients who complained of general symptoms during the "COVID-19 period." Moreover, there was a higher frequency of patients who were transferred to a 'Level I' emergency room during the "COVID-19 period" compared to during the "Pre-COVID-19 period" (p<.05). Conclusion: Following the COVID-19 outbreak, there is a delay in patient transport to the emergency room through private institution inter-hospital transport and an increase in the number of patients complaining of respiratory infection symptoms. Thus, emergency medical services need additional administrative and economic support to transport infected patients.

  • This study aims to examine whether there are some differences in the cost stickiness of R&D expenses of IT companies before and after the COVID-19 crisis. Before COVID-19, IT companies did not reduce R&D expenses even if sales decreased, resulting in cost stickiness. As a result, it appears that during the COVID-19, IT companies adjust R&D expenses in proportion to changes in sales. This is interpreted as a reduction in R&D investment, which takes a long time to create results, in case of a decrease in sales due to uncertainty in future management performance due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In other words, during the COVID-19 risk period, IT companies, like other companies, reduced R&D expenses as sales decreased, resulting in reduced cost stickiness. This study differs from existing literature in that it examines the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the R&D expenditure behavior of companies in the IT industry.

  • The novel Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is unprecedentedly changing the world since its outbreak in late 2019. Using the collected the data related to COVID-19 and the social media user data from a mobile application market research agency from January 25 to April 7, this study empirically examines the effect of the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases worldwide, the number news COVID-19, and the enforcement of social distancing measures on the daily active users (DAU) of two social media services - Twitter and Facebook - in South Korea. There are three important findings from the results of econometric analysis. First, the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases worldwide has a negative effect on the DAU of social media. Second, the number of COVID-19 news is negatively associated with the DAU of social media. Finally, the implementation of social distancing measures has no significant effect on the DAU of the social media. Theoretical implications and managerial guidelines are also discussed.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to examine the predictive factors of COVID-19 vaccination behavior by evaluating the moderating effect of perceived behavioral control on the theory of planned behavior. Methods: Data were collected from August 6 to August 31, 2022 from 235 college students (aged 20~29 years) across 12 universities using a structured web-based survey. Statistical analyses were conducted using the SPSS and AMOS software. Results: Attitudes toward COVID-19 vaccination, subjective norms, and intention to be vaccinated significantly influenced COVID-19 vaccination behavior. Attitudes and subjective norms indirectly affected COVID-19 vaccination behavior through intention to vaccinate, whereas intention to vaccinate had a direct effect. The moderating effect of perceived behavioral control on the relationship between subjective norms and intention to vaccinate was significant. Conclusion: Interventions that foster a positive attitude toward COVID-19 vaccination and bolster subjective norms and perceived behavioral control can boost the intention to be vaccinated and facilitate the uptake of COVID-19 vaccination.

  • This study examines the connectedness between the number of COVID-19 cases in Thailand and trading value among investors in the Stock Exchange of Thailand. Daily data of COVID-19 cases and trading value were sourced from the Thailand ministry of public health and the Stock Exchange of Thailand, from January 12, 2020 to May 11, 2021. This study applies a multiple linear regression analysis to explain the relationship between variables. Empirical evidence clearly shows that the volatility of trading value was affected by COVID-19's new, confirmed, and deaths cases within the first pandemic period more than during the second pandemic period. Nevertheless, during the third pandemic period there is no evidence that the new, confirmed, and deaths cases significantly influenced trading value. Furthermore, the results show that COVID-19's new and deaths cases have a negative coefficient that indicated the trading value-buy/sell decreased in response to COVID-19's new and deaths cases, whereas the confirmed COVID-19 cases have a positive coefficient that indicated the trading value-buy/sell increased in response to COVID's confirmed cases. In summary, this study suggests that the number of COVID-19 cases have a significant impact on the trading value in the short term more than in the intermediate and long term.
