The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of crop diversification on farm households' agricultural income. Abundant literature have explored the determinants and efficient strategies for crop diversification. Yet, there is a paucity of research studies that empirically test the effectiveness of crop diversification as a profitable farm management strategy. Utilizing the 2015 Agricultural Census, this study adopts a quasi-experimental research design to compare the outcomes between farm households that opted for crop diversification and farm households that did not engage in such a strategy. In doing so, this study applies the Heckman Selection Model and the decomposition technique to address the problem of selection bias and to identify the causal effect. Our empirical results show that farms that implement diversification are more likely to earn higher agricultural income than non-diversified farms, although the difference would not be much substantial. This study concludes with several policy proposals to stabilize agricultural income in conjunction with crop diversification.

This paper tried to construct statistical and econometric models on the basis of economic theory in order to discuss the issue of statistical efficiency and unbiasedness including the sample selection bias correcting problem. Comparative analytical tool were one stage Tobit of Maximum Likelihood estimation and Heckman's two-step Tobit of Ordinary Least Squares. The results showed that the adequacy of model for the analysis on demand and choice, we believe that there is no big difference in explanatory variables between the first selection model and the second linear probability model. Since the Lambda, the self- selectivity correction factor, in the Type II Tobit is not statistically significant, there is no self-selectivity in the Type II Tobit model, indicating that Type I Tobit model would give us better explanation in the demand for and choice which is less complicated statistical method rather than type II model.

본 연구는 플라스틱 소재 합성섬유가 야기하는 미세플라스틱 배출을 저감하는 친환경적 소재 의류에 대한 소비자들의 수용성과 지불의사를 조건부가치측정법을 적용하여 측정하였다. 2021년 2월 초에 전국 16개 시·도 거주자들의 지역별, 연령 그리고 성별에 비례한 1,052명을 대상으로 웹기반-설문조사를 실시하였다. 표본의 75% 이상이 합성섬유 의류 대신에 미세플라스틱 배출저감 의류를 구매할 의도가 있었고, 이들 중 80% 이상이 추가로 가격을 지불할 의사가 있다고 응답하였다. 친환경 소재 의류 구매의도 여부를 추정하는 프로빗모형을 표본선택 함수로 보고, 응답자들의 추가 지불의사 여부를 일종의 Heckman 표본선택모형의 변형인 이변량 프로빗모형으로 추정하였다. 응답자들에게 제시된 추가 가격에 대해서는 민감하게 반응하는 반면에, 미세플라스틱 배출 저감 수준에 상관없이 친환경적 소재의류에 대한 수용성과 진술선호가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 순환경제 시대의 소비자들의 미세플라스틱 배출저감 의류에 대한 지불의사는 의류 1벌 당 41,000원에서 51,000원의 범위로 측정되어, 합성섬유 제품에 비해 40-50% 비싸게 지불할 의사가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 미세플라스틱 배출저감 정도가 50%에서 80%로 높아짐에 따라 지불의사 표본평균이 41,000원~50,500원에서 42,000원~51,700원의 범위로 통계적으로 유의하게 높아지는 것으로 나타났다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze affecting factors to consider and make decision on the urban-to-rural migrants using survey data. In the consideration model of urban-to-rural migrants, it was found that the more interest in "urban-to-rural migrants concern" was, the higher probability to consider about urban-to-rural migrants. The lower the age and income level, the higher probability to consider about the urban-to-rural migrants. In the decision making model of urban-to-rural migrants, the more interest in "urban-to-rural migrants concern" was, the higher probability to decision making of urban-to-rural migrants. The higher of stable pension income and the lower of the expected living cost, the higher probability of decision on urban-to-rural migrants. The results of this analysis show that it is necessary to continuous education to increase "interests and information about rural areas", and A number of safeguards are needed to ensure stable income after urban-to-rural migrants to increase the population of the urban-to-rural migrants.

Due to the existence of asymmetry of information between doctor and patient, it has been believed that doctor might affect patient's decision making process of purchasing medical care. Based on this notion, doctor's reimbursement method has been suggested as an effective policy device of improving efficiency of patient's medical care use by way of its affecting doctor's practice pattern. By using the Community Tracking Study (CTS) household and physician data set, which includes not only various information on patient's medical care use, but doctor's practice arrangements and sources of practice revenue, this paper investigates the effect of community doctor's characteristics of reimbursement method on community patient's medical care use under the control of patient's socio-demographic characteristics and community doctor's practice type. In the process of estimating econometric model, the endogeneity problem of individual health insurance purchase was corrected by using 2818. And due to the existence of sample selection problem, Heckman's two-step estimation method was used for strengthen the robustness of estimation which was adversely affected by sample selection problem The empirical results show that as the average value of community doctor's portion of practice revenue determined by prospective method out of total revenue increases, the community patient's total out-of-pocket medical cost decreases. This results suggest, as doctor's practice revenues are mainly determined by prospective method, such as capitation, doctors would be more conscious about practice cost, which might affect doctor's practice pattern and by which his/her patient's use of medical care would decrease.

본 연구의 목적은 자녀의 초등학교 입학이 취업모의 근로조건을 어떻게 변화시키는지 살펴보는 것이었다. 분석을 위해 육아정책연구소에서 실시하는 한국아동패널 4-8차년도 자료를 활용하였다. 구체적으로 본 연구에서는 자녀의 초등학교 입학이 어머니의 임금, 근로시간, 상용직 취업확률에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 분석 결과의 내생성(endogeneity)를 통제하기 위해 균형패널 데이터를 대상으로 회귀불연속설계를 사용하여 분석한 결과와 불균형패널 데이터를 대상으로 Heckman 선택모형을 사용하여 분석한 결과를 비교하여 제시하였다. 분석결과 자녀의 초등학교 입학은 어머니의 임금수준, 근로시간, 상용직 취업확률에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 자녀의 초등학교 입학이 단순히 여성의 경력단절 문제뿐만 아니라 양질의 일자리에 진입하는 것을 어렵게 만들 수 있다는 것을 보여준다.

This research investigates the impact of vocational training on wages of ethnic minority labors in emerging countries; Vietnam is the case study. The study uses secondary data from 2014 to 2018 collected through Vietnam Household Living Standards Surveys (VHLSS) conducted by the General Statistics Office. In order to analyze the impact of vocational training on wages of ethnic minority areas in Vietnam, this research creates ethnic area variables. According to Vietnamese regulations, ethnic areas are communes of 51 different provinces, inhabited by ethnic minority people. The statistics from VHLSS in 2018, show that the proportion of labors of working age with a certificate was 22.5%. The research employs Heckman Sample Selection Model to estimate the impact of vocation training on wage of labors in ethnic minority areas. The results show that vocational training plays a crucial role in improving the wages of ethnic minorities and has a positive impact. However, apart from the achieved outcomes, vocational training and job creation for ethnic minorities are not without limitations and shortcomings. Based on the findings, some recommendations to ethnic minority labors, enterprises and the Government are proposed to encourage participation in vocational training for the purpose of promoting the efficiency of the labor market.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the association between utilization of home care services under the national long-term care insurance system and family caregiver distress. Methods: A secondary data analysis was conducted in this study using data collected in 2011 and 2012 from the Korean version of International Resident Assessment Instrument (interRAI) Home Care assessment system. The study sample included 228 clients receiving community based home care and their family caregivers in Korea. Descriptive statistics, $x^2$ test, t-test, and Heckman selection model analysis were conducted using SAS 9.3. Results: Presence of family caregiver distress was significantly associated with days of nurse visits (${\beta}$=-.89, p=<.001) and home helper visits (${\beta}$=-.53, p=.014). Level of caregiver distress was also significantly associated with days of nurse visits (${\beta}$=-.66, p=.028). Other factors which were significantly associated with caregiver distress were depression, cognitive function, inadequate pain control, social support for older adult, and caregiver relationship to the older adult. Conclusion: The results of this study show that visiting nurse service and appropriate support programs for Older Adults and family caregivers experiencing caregiver distress should be developed and provided to families based on the health care needs of older adults and their family caregivers for effective and sustainable home care.
