This research examines the effect of family member in board of directors. In Korea, the ownership and management of a firm is not thoroughly separated and most of firms are managed by controlling family. These family officers have same intent with family CEOs who identify themselves with the firm and want to hand over it to their descendants. Thus, family officers will influence positively on firm performance. Besides, the moderating effect of professional CEO on the above relation will be also positive. It is because professional CEO will be curbed by family officers in board of directors. Under this condition, the potential self-interest seeking behavior will be minimized and the specialty of professional CEO will be manifested. 2,456 firm-year panel data are gathered in manufacturing listed firms from 2004 to 2010 and the result suggests that hypotheses are supported.

A time management strategy would reduce the time conflicts from competing time demands of family and business, and contribute to the quality of life of family members in family business. Data were collected on 259 families where one family member was both a household manager and business manager. Household time management strategies and business time management strategies were compared. The individual performing two roles used different time management strategies in household and in business, and they were more likely to use time management strategies in business than in the household. Multiple regression analyses suggested that time management strategy contributed to increased quality of life of dual managers.

Metallothioneins are a group of low molecular mass and cysteine-rich metal-binding proteins, ubiquitously found in most living organisms. They play an important role in maintaining intracellular metal homeostasis, eliminating metal toxification and protecting against intracellular oxidative damages. Analysis of complete rice genome sequences revealed eleven genes encoding putative metallothionein (OsMT), indicating that OsMTs constitute a small gene family in rice. Expression profiling revealed that each member of the OsMT gene family differs not only in sequence but also in their tissue expression patterns, suggesting that these isoforms may have different functions they perform in specific tissues. On the basis of OsMT structural and phylogenetic analysis, the OsMT family was classified as two classes and class I was subdivided into four types. Additionally, in this paper we also present a complete overview of this family, describing the gene structure, genome localization, upstream regulatory element, and exon/intron organization of each member in order to provide valuable insight into this OsMT gene family.

The purpose of this study is to understand a ChoSun-jok female domesic worker's experience in a Korean home. This study adopted hermeneutic phenomenological method which was developed by van Manen. The participant for this study was a ChoSun-jok woman who had worked as a care-giver and housekeeper in Korean home for more than 2 years. She missed the time when she was raising her own daughter and son and expected the time that her family would be together. So, her present time wears away for her stable future in Korea which give an opportunity to make a good money. Also, she realized that she was a marginal existence : it meant she was neither a family member nor truly worker. She nursed the Korean children and did for the Korean family for money but wanted to be treated as a family member like a grandmother who could be honored about what she had done for the family. She felt that she was disregarded from the family when she miscommunicated with them because of the difference between cultures. She anticipated that she was appreciated for being here in the Korean home.

The purpose of this study is to discuss Faimly Business. Family Business means a business that is owned and managed by one or more family members,. Family Business is defined as one in which at 51% of the business is owned by a single family and at least one and more family members are involved in the management activities in addition to which transfer of leadership to next generation family member is anticipated. This study is to examine a clear understanding of the relationship between family functioning and business viability in families who own and operate businesses. The Overall objectives of this study are first to introduce the Family Business in the Home Economics Consumer Studies and Family Resource Management field second to theoretically review definition of Family business and related concepts bivalent attributes of Family Business the dual relationship of the social and business functions in the Family Business the dual relationship of the social and business fun tions in the Family Business, Family Business is characterized by the dual relationship of two naturally separate functions; the social function(the family) and the business function(the family business). The family in it's social function satisfies different social and emotional needs. On the other hand the business function is result-oriented the decision -marking process and behavioral pattern must be based on an objective economic model in order for the family business to compete and survive It's important to handle the overlap between the social and the business functions of Family Business and offers some guidelines on how to address with the overlap problems This study is a useful instrument for researcher educators practitioners and policy makers.

Historical origins of both personal names and place names in Korea are reviewed. It is shown that names of native origin have been largely replaced by those of Sino-Korean names. Some statistics are given on the basis of the 2000 census data in South Korea. A unique method of naming personal names which contain a generation marker called hangnyol is reviewed. This enables the person to figure out one's position and others in the family tree up to as many as ten generations without going consulting the book of genealogy. While this practice had a role to play in a vertically structured society where seniority is important, it is less practiced as the society is becoming more egalitarian, so that native names, not writable in Chinese characters, are on the rise. In this global age, a person is not just a member of his family or clan, s/he is also a member of the international community. The author proposes several things that should be considered in naming to fit the modern global age: euphony of names, ambiguity, possible bad connotations when Romanized, unintended homophones with comic meanings, etc.

Objective: We propose empathy as a user research method for service design. Background: We argue that empathy will enable user researchers to go beyond the conceptual knowledge to the design knowledge of user experience. Method: We tested our hypothesis by conducting an experiment in which subjects were required to propose solutions to improve the experience of a family member of a patient hospitalized in an emergency department. Results: We found that the subjects who empathized with the family member of a patient tended to suggest the solutions based on design knowledge rather than the solutions based on conceptual knowledge compared to the subjects who did not empathize. Conclusion: Data support our hypothesis that empathy enables people to focus on design knowledge rather than conceptual knowledge. Application: These findings provide practical implications for user researchers in service design.

A distinct double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) cryptic virus, named spinach cryptic virus 1 (SpCV1), was identified from spinach transcriptome datasets. The SpCV1 genome has two dsRNA genome segments. The larger dsRNA1 has an open reading frame for a conserved RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp). The smaller dsRNA2 encodes a putative coat protein (CP). The sequence identity of SpCV1 RdRp and CP to the closest cryptic virus is 81% and 60%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that SpCV1 is a novel member of the genus Alphapartitivirus (family Partitiviridae).

This study is based on the Importance of home office in domestic environment in Korea. In recent years, the distribution of network environment at home has been changed rapidly Each family member uses home office for various purpose. The home office in domestic living environment become a part of common use for all family member. The purpose of this study is to set the framework of design direction in terms of system furniture for home office within the limitation of current standard space at home such as typical apartment - 30 pyeong, 40 pyeong. The first step of study is to understand user space and user needs through the user survey. The second step is to find the right location and plan of home office in domestic environment. The last is to suggest the integral system furniture and elements that fits to the various situations of location according to the space and user type.
