Purpose: Crowdfunding can be a complementary channel in which start-ups or small companies can obtain financial help and take advantage of exploiting the online potential. To activate crowdfunding, it is necessary to consider a consumer's empathic responses. This article examines the role of empathy in the crowdfunding channel platform. We adopted the identification-commitment model to prove the role of empathy. Research design, data, and methodology: Participants were asked to read the charitable crowdfunding campaign. More than 300 young adults completed an online questionnaire and we analyzed it with structural equation modeling (SEM). To find out the role of empathy, we postulate several models which use empathy variable for different purposes. Results: We conclude that empathy has the role of moderator in the identification-commitment model. This means the high empathic response helped the relationship between identification and commitment. However, low empathic response can negatively influence the process of identification to commitment. Conclusions: This study found that virtual empathy is positively related to crowdfunding participation if we can elevate empathy in the crowdfunding channel platform. The findings also show that we need to consider empathic response when we want to raise funds for specific projects such as protecting the natural environment.

This paper presents and tests a conceptual model of Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) that explains perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, organizational commitment and turnover intention in terms of psychological commitment in mandatory environments. The model focuses on psychological commitment(Kelman's internalization, identification, compliance) as the primal of predictor of perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and organizational commitment we discuss our current understanding of technology acceptance, as well as the notion of mandated use. The results and implications of the research are as follows. First, organizational commitment negatively influence turnover intention in mandatory environment. Second, perceived usefulness positively influence organizational commitment in mandatory environments. Third, psychological commitment positively influence organizational commitment, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use in mandatory environments. Fourth, perceived ease of use positively influence perceived usefulness in mandatory environments. Through this research, psychological commitment is a strong determinant of technology acceptance in mandatory environments. These findings advance theory and contribution to the foundation for future research aimed at improving our understanding of user adoption behavior in mandatory environments.

명품브랜드의 대중화에 따라 명품브랜드에 대한 다양한 연구들이 진행되어 오고 있지만 기존 연구들은 명품브랜드 구매행동에 영향을 미치는 변수를 규명하는 데 초점을 맞추고 있다. 본 연구는 명품브랜드 소비자들이 타인에게 인정받기 위한 수단과 자아만족의 수단으로 명품브랜드를 소비한다는 관점에서 소비자와 명품브랜드간의 관계형성경로를 개발하고 브랜드 애착과 브랜드 몰입을 인과모델의 주요 구성개념으로 제시하고 있다. 또한 각 구성개념간 인과관계에서 조절초점의 조절효과도 살펴보았다. 연구결과를 살펴보면 브랜드 개성의 5차원 가운데 '생동감', '성실성' 그리고 '세련됨'이 소비자와 명품브랜드간의 동일시에 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 '성실성' 요인이 브랜드 동일시에 상대적으로 가장 큰 영향력을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 이는 국내 소비자들이 명품브랜드의 소비시 주위의 부정적 시각을 피하고 사회적 바람직성(social desirability)을 추구하는 성향이 있기 때문으로 볼 수 있다. 다음으로 명품브랜드에 동일시를 느끼는 소비자는 명품브랜드에 대해 애착의 관계를 형성하며 형성된 애착은 브랜드 몰입으로 이어지는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 명품브랜드에 동일시를 느끼는 소비자는 해당 명품브랜드를 통해 자아표현 욕구를 충족시킴으로써 정서적 유대관계를 형성하고 이를 지속적으로 유지하려는 것으로 해석할 수 있다. 마지막으로 브랜드 동일시-브랜드 애착-브랜드 몰입의 인과관계에서 조절초점 유형의 조절효과를 살펴 본 결과 방어초점지향의 소비자 집단에서 인과 경로계수가 더욱 높게 나타났다. 이는 관계를 의식하는 성향이 높은 소비자일수록 명품브랜드와의 관계단절로 인한 손실에 대해서 민감하게 반응한다는 것을 시사한다.

In 2008, Chin et al. proposed an efficient and provable secure identity-based identification scheme in the standard model. However, we discovered a subtle flaw in the security proof which renders the proof of security useless. While no weakness has been found in the scheme itself, a scheme that is desired would be one with an accompanying proof of security. In this paper, we provide a fix to the scheme to overcome the problem without affecting the efficiency as well as a new proof of security. In particular, we show that only one extra pre-computable pairing operation should be added into the commitment phase of the identification protocol to fix the proof of security under the same hard problems.

Purpose - This study examines the adverse press coverage that has increased in proportion to the remarkable growth of various kinds of franchise businesses in the food service industry. Today, the trust of franchisees in relation to their franchisor, and the maintenance of good relations between the two, has become a significant social issue. This study investigates relationship satisfaction and the long-term commitment between the franchisor and franchisee. Research design, data, methodology - We used a path analysis to investigate the relationship between justice and trust, trust and relationship satisfaction, justice and relationship satisfaction, trust and long-term commitment, and relationship satisfaction and long-term commitment. Structural Equation Modeling and a Sobel test were used to investigate the mediating effects of trust and relationship satisfaction. Data were collected from 237 Food Franchisees in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province in order to test the theoretical model and its hypotheses. Two research methodologies are generally used in the distribution management field. For this study, an empirical method was used. Results - A causal analysis was carried out to test if the research model has a sufficient fit index (for instance, χ² = 46.694, df = 10, p = .000, GFI = 0.946, AGFI = 0.850, RMR = 0.034, NFI = 0.966, CFI = 0.973), and the results showed that the model was sufficient, thus demonstrating the suitability of the research model. Each hypothesis had a positive influence, both on long-term commitment and relationship satisfaction. Justice with the franchisor had a positive influence on trust. Relation satisfaction cognized by franchisees was found to positively influence long-term commitment. The franchisee perception of justice in relation to the franchisor had no significant influence on long-term commitment. The study investigated the hypothesis that trust could mediate justice and long-term commitment, and that relationship satisfaction could also mediate long-term commitment Both trust and relationship satisfaction were found to be important for long-term commitment. Specifically, trust sub-factors and justice sub-factors influenced long-term commitment. Identification-based and knowledge-based trust were more important than calculus-based trust. Distributive justice was deemed more important than procedural justice; distributive justice should thus be strengthened. Conclusions - Both franchisor and franchisee were independent businesses. Evidently however, the franchisor could not ensure profit without long-term commitment from the franchisee. As for the success of the franchise business, the franchisor should carry out appropriate strategies leading to a satisfactory relationship. For example, transparency makes it possible to maintain and enhance trust and to improve relationship satisfaction. Just relations between franchisor and franchisee should make it possible to maintain and enhance the franchisee's trust. The franchisor should provide a variety of information with respect to the franchisee's business success. Finally, in order to improve the franchisee's long-term commitment, the franchisor should ensure a just approach with trust and relationship satisfaction among their strategies.
