  • Many consumers enjoy the challenge of purchasing a brand that matches well with their own values and personalities (for example, Ko et al., 2008; Ko et al., 2006). Therefore, the personalities of consumers can impact on the final selection of a brand and its brand personality in two ways: first, the consumers may incline to purchase a brand or a product that reflects their own personalities; second, consumers tend to choose a company that has similar brand personalities to those brands that are being promoted. Therefore, the objectives of this study are following: 1. Is there any empirical relationship between a consumer's personality and the personality of a brand that he or she chooses? 2. Can a corporate brand be differentiated by the brand personality? In short, consumers are more likely to hold favorable attitudes towards those brands that match their own personality and will most probably purchase those brands matching well with their personality. For example, Matzler et al. (2006) found that extraversion and openness were positively related to hedonic product value; and that the personality traits directly (openness) and indirectly (extraversion, via hedonic value) influenced brand effects, which in turn droved attitudinal and purchase loyalty. Based on the above discussion, the following hypotheses are proposed: Hypothesis 1: the personality of a consumer is related to the brand personality of a product/corporate that he/she purchases. Kuksov (2007) and Wernerfelt (1990) argued that brands as a symbolic language allowed consumers to communicate their types to each other and postulated that consumers had a certain value of communicating their types to each other. Therefore, how brand meanings are established, and how a firm communicate with consumers about the meanings of the brand are interesting topics for research (for example, Escalas and Bettman, 2005; McCracken, 1989; Moon, 2007). Hence, the following hypothesis is proposed: Hypothesis 2: A corporate brand identity is differentiated by the brand personality. And there are significant differences among companies. A questionnaire was developed for collecting empirical measures of the Big-Five personality traits and brand personality variables. A survey was conducted to the online access panel members through the Internet during December 2007 in Korea. In total, 500 respondents completed the questionnaire, and considered as useable. Personality constructs were measured using the Five-factor Inventory (NEO-FFI) scale and a total of 30 items were actually utilized. Brand personality was measured using the five-dimension scale developed by Aaker (1997). A total of 17 items were actually utilized. The seven-point Likert-type scale was the format of responses, for example, from 1 indicating strongly disagreed to 7 for strongly agreed. The Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) was used for an empirical testing of the model, and the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) was applied to estimate numerical values for the components in the model. To diagnose the presence of distribution problems in the data and to gauge their effects on the parameter estimates, bootstapping method was used. The results of the hypothesis-1 test empirically show that there exit certain causality relationship between a consumer's personality and the brand personality of the consumer's choice. Thus, the consumer's personality has an impact on consumer's final selection of a brand that has a brand personality matches well with their own personalities. In other words, the consumers are inclined to purchase a brand that reflects their own personalities and tend to choose a company that has similar brand personalities to those of the brand being promoted. The results of this study further suggest that certain dimensions of the brand personality cause consumers to have preference to certain (corporate) brands. For example, the conscientiousness, neuroticism, and extraversion of the consumer personality have positively related to a selection of "ruggedness" characteristics of the brand personality. Consumers who possess that personality dimension seek for matching with certain brand personality dimensions. Results of the hypothesis-2 test show that the average "ruggedness" attributes of the brand personality differ significantly among Korean automobile manufacturers. However, the result of ANOVA also indicates that there are no significant differences in the mean values among manufacturers for the "sophistication," "excitement," "competence" and "sincerity" attributes of the corporate brand personality. The tight link between what a firm is and its corporate brand means that there is far less room for marketing communications than there is with products and brands. Consequently, successful corporate brand strategies must position the organization within the boundaries of what is acceptable, while at the same time differentiating the organization from its competitors.

  • Demand for performance analysis is increasing for efficient use of limited budgets such as improving investment efficiency and strategic budget allocation in accordance with the continuous increase demand of R&D budget for developing advanced weapon systems in the future battlefields. In accordance with the Act on the Performance Evaluation and Performance Management of the National R&D Projects established in March 2006, the performance analysis has been conducted for the systematic management and utilization of the R&D project performance. It was recognized as a project to achieve self-defense through strengthening the weapons system development capability, however, efficiency evaluation of Defense R&D projects was not much emphasized. Research on the efficiency analysis of defense R&D projects has been conducted in recent years, but most studies focused on corporate efficiency and productivity of defense companies. In this study, we analyzed the three-stage performance of defence R&D projects based on the logical model using the data envelope analysis(DEA) model. We also analyzed performance analysis from various perspectives through R&D type, technology classification and performance model. This study is expected to help defense department improve defense R&D projects and make decision.

  • In this thesis, the domestic and foreign legislative background and legislative process of the Serious Accident Punishment Act were reviewed, and the Serious Accident Punishment Act in Korea was reviewed. In 2022, more safety accidents occurred in the construction industry than in other fields, and in particular, the most deaths occurred in the 'fall' type. In April 2023, regarding two criminal first-instance trial cases, the courts all sentenced guilty, and in one case, the representative of the company(CEO) was sentenced to imprisonment and was arrested. In response, the management side expresses the opinion that the punishment is excessive and there is a concern that corporate management will shrink, while the workers side(Union) argues that the responsibility of the business operator or manager should be strengthened by heavier punishment. As a countermeasure to overcome rationally, we present a plan in terms of legislation and resolution process. In other words, we present a review of the amendment to the Serious Accident Punishment Act and the Court Organization Act. In addition, guidelines for the a safety and health system must be implemented, and if an accident occurs, it must be dealt with reasonably. As a result, safety accidents in the construction industry should drastically decrease and safety culture should be properly established.

  • 국내 ICT 산업은 세계 시장 환경이 변화함에 따라, 세계에 미치는 영향력이 점차 커지고 있다. 이 산업은 국가 경제에 기술적, 사회적 측면에서 중요한 원동력으로 여겨지고 있다. 특히 ICT 산업 내 중소기업은 다양성 추구, 기술 발전 및 고용 창출 측면에서 국내 경제 발전의 반드시 필요한 주체로서 여겨지고 있다. 하지만 대기업이나 중견 기업에 비해 작은 규모이기 때문에, 불완전하고 급변하는 환경 속에서 중소기업이 차별화된 전략을 가지고 살아 남기 어려운 상황에 직면해 있다. 그래서 중소기업은 자신이 가진 역량을 향상시키기 위해서 많은 노력을 해야 하며, 정부도 이들이 지속적으로 경쟁력을 갖추도록 기업 내부자원에 맞는 바람직한 도움을 제공해 줄 필요성이 있다. 본 연구는 정부지원 프로그램에 참여하고 있는 ICT 중소기업의 유형을 분류하고, 각각의 유형별로 기업들이 가지고 있는 자원들과 성과창출 간의 관계를 분석하였다. 분석 자료로는 과학기술정보통신부에서 매년 실시하고 있는 ICT 중소기업 실태조사의 데이터를 사용하였다. 이를 위해, 본 연구는 첫번째 단계에서 ICT 중소기업들을 정부지원 프로그램 경험에 따라 공통의 요소를 기반으로 군집화 하였다. 세 개의 군집이 의미 있게 분류되었으며, 각각의 군집은 '적극적 참여형,' '초기 지원형,' '홀로서기형'으로 명명하였다. 두번째 단계로, 본 연구는 각 군집에 대해 프로파일링 분석을 통해 각 군집의 특성을 비교하였다. 본 연구가 수행한 세번째 단계는 군집별로 R&D 성과창출 메커니즘을 회귀분석을 통해 알아보았는데, 각 군집별로 서로 상이한 요인들이 성과창출에 영향을 주었고, 그 영향력의 크기도 서로 달랐다. 구체적으로, "적극적 참여형"은 "현재 보유 인력", "기술경쟁력", "전년도 R&D 투자액"이 "R&D 성과창출"에 중요한 요인들로 밝혀졌다. "초기 지원형"은 "연구개발전담조직 보유 여부", "전년도 R&D 투자액", "대기업 매출 비중", "대기업 납품 벤더 비중"이 성과에 기여하는 것으로 파악되었다. 마지막으로 "홀로서기형"의 경우, "현재 보유 인력"과 더불어 "미래 충원 계획", "기술경쟁력", "R&D 투자액", "대기업 매출 비중", "해외매출 비중"이 유의한 관계를 보여주었다. 본 연구는 정부의 창업프로그램 참여 방식에 따라, 향후 중소기업을 지원할 때, 어떤 전략을 수립해야 하는지를 보여준다는 정책적 시사점을 가지며, 구체적으로 어떤 지원을 제공해야 하는지에 대한 가이드를 제공한다는 실무적 시사점을 가진다.
