According to the results from the examination of whether or not the competitiveness of broadcasting and video contents increased, production conditions had not improved due to the controversy over the ownership of the right of production between terrestrial broadcasting companies and outsourcing production companies. In addition, though there was the positive effect of increasing export of broadcasting programs, the exports were limited to certain genres.

This study aims to analyze the effects of job satisfaction on turnover intention among the nurses in geriatric hospitals. In terms of study methods, this study developed structured questionnaires, and distributed them to nurses working in 11 geriatric hospitals in metropolitan area. A total of 418 questionnaires (response rate: 87.0%) were used for final analysis. We conducted multiple regression analyses to analyze the influence of job satisfaction on turnover intention, adjusting for the characteristics of the research subjects. The results of this study are as follows. First, both job satisfaction and turnover intention were statistically significantly related to individual and hospital characteristics. Second, turnover intention was lower in older age group, and higher in smaller hospitals. As job satisfaction increases, turnover intention decreases. Third, the results of the regression analysis adjusting for subject's characteristics and job satisfaction's sub-categories show that the turnover intention is lower in nurses who are older, day worker, and work in bigger hospitals. Fourth, the result of subgroup analysis by hospital volume show that both of two groups are influenced by hospital ownership and satisfaction about compensation. In addition, professionalism had a significant effect on decreasing turnover intention in smaller hospitals. However, there was no statistically significant relationship between job satisfaction's sub-categories and turnover intention in larger hospitals. The results of this study confirms that job satisfaction lowers turnover intention among nurses in geriatric hospitals. It is suggested that the administrators of those hospitals continue to monitor critical factors associated with job satisfaction, and thus, reduce turnover intention, which helps improve quality of services.

This study aims to analyze affecting factors on life satisfaction level of the women and partial effects using Ordered Logit Model. For this purpose, socio-economic factors are selected as major independent factors. And the data used was from the third 'Korea Welfare Panel Study'. Analysis shows that social life factors such as the satisfaction of leisure activities, social relationships, family member communication, and positive attitude to life had positive effects with the life satisfaction level of the women. However, economic factors such as home ownership, disposable income had a lower positive impact compared to social life factors. While, satisfaction level of women is negatively related with family member discordance, and classified low-income families. On the basis of these results, government should pay more attention to improve facilities and software that could meet women's needs of social life satisfaction.

Digital watermarking is to embed imperceptible mark into image, video, audio, and text data to prevent the illegal copy of multimedia data. arbitrary modification, and also illegal sales of the copies without agreement of copyright ownership. In this paper, we study for the embedding and extraction of watermark key using wavelet in the luminance signal in order to implement the system to protect the copyright for image MPEG. First, the original image is analyzed into frequency domain by discrete wavelet transform. The RSA(Rivest, Shamir, Aldeman) public key of the coded target is RUN parameter of VLD(variable length coding). Because the high relationship among the adjacent RUN parameters effect the whole image, it prevents non-authorizer not to possess private key from behaving illegally. The Results show that the proposed method provides better moving picture and the distortion more key of insert than direct coded method on low-frequency domain based DCT.

This study investigates whether earnings management behavior of chaebol firms differ from that of non-chaebol firms. The ownership structure of chaebol firms is characterized by the dominance of one largest shareholder and his family members who typically participate in the management of the firm directly or indirectly and influence most of the important management decision. This study adopts the random effect model and the hausman and talyor model, using a panel of 5092 firm-year over a period from 1991 to 2010 to control for potential heterogeneity and endogeneity that may cause sever bias. This study finds that there is no difference in accrual based earnings management level between chaebol firms and non-chaebol firms. However, chaebol firms appeared to engage less real earnings management that is known to negatively affect future earnings and share prices. The results are consistent when controlling for potential heterogeneity and endogeneity in the hausman and taylor model. The results may be of interest to various stakeholders, policy makers, standard setters and academic researchers.

The maintenance and improvement of housing become more important than quantitative supply. So this paper suggests the directions to solve the current issues of housing improvement policies. In 2015, the housing improvement for the low-income has been expanded with the revision of housing benefit policy. And each related government departments are steadily carrying out various housing improvement programs. Under the current improvement policies, individual houses are being repaired according to the criteria of the target selection. And the repair allowance of the housing benefit is limited to the ownership households except the rented. Hereafter, it has to considered the review of the detailed goal setting and application problems in housing improvement policy and to consider the extension to the rented households and the raise of the income criteria of targets.

This study was attempted to identify the liquidity trends and determinants of private hospitals in Korea different. Data used in this study were collected from 98 hospitals with complete general data of present conditions as well as financial statements(balance sheets, income statements). They were chosen from hospitals that passed the standardization audit undertaken by the Korean Hospital Association from 1996 to 2000 for the purpose of accrediting training hospitals. The dependent variables in this study were used current ration and quick ratio as a proxy indicator for liquidity. The independent variables were ownership type, hospital type, location, bed size, period of establishment, short-term liabilities to total assets, long-term liabilities to total assets, borrowings to total assets, fixed asset ration, net profit to total assets, operating margin to gross revenue, growth rate of net worth to total assets, total asset turnover, and business risk(volatility of profit). The major findings of this study were as follows. Trends of liquidity(current ratio, quick ratio) had been continuously decreased. Especially, There were very distinct decreasing trends of personal hospitals and less than 300beds, which weakened liquidity. The factors had significant effect on current ratio were short-term debt to total assets(-), fixed asset ratio(-), business risk(+). High short-term debt to total assets, high fixed asset ratio and high business risk significantly decreased in liquidity. The factors that significantly affected on quick ratio were short-term debt to total assets(-), borrowings to total assets(+), fixed asset ratio(-), business risk(+).

Knowledge management (KM) has been considered to be an effective means of learning from past projects to effect continuous performance improvement in the construction industry. Despite the growing importance of KM in the construction industry, the usage and effectiveness of IT tools for implementing KM are limited to some extent. Case studies of current KM practices in Korean construction sectors revealed that the chief causes of this problem are the top-down approach of the current practices. To address this challenging issue, this research proposes bottom-up approach, which motivates knowledge creation by shifting the ownership of contents, and facilitates effective reuse of knowledge by providing rich contextual information.
