Objectives: The pandemic caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has exerted an unprecedented impact on the health of populations worldwide. However, the adverse health consequences of the pandemic in terms of infection and mortality rates have varied across countries. In this study, we investigate whether COVID-19 mortality rates across a group of developed nations are associated with characteristics of their healthcare systems, beyond the differential policy responses in those countries. Methods: To achieve the study objective, we distinguished healthcare systems based on the extent of healthcare decommodification. Using available daily data from 2020, 2021, and 2022, we applied quantile regression with non-additive fixed effects to estimate mortality rates across quantiles. Our analysis began prior to vaccine development (in 2020) and continued after the vaccines were introduced (throughout 2021 and part of 2022). Results: The findings indicate that higher testing rates, coupled with more stringent containment and public health measures, had a significant negative impact on the death rate in both pre-vaccination and post-vaccination models. The data from the post-vaccination model demonstrate that higher vaccination rates were associated with significant decreases in fatalities. Additionally, our research indicates that countries with healthcare systems characterized by high and medium levels of decommodification experienced lower mortality rates than those with healthcare systems involving low decommodification. Conclusions: The results of this study indicate that stronger public health infrastructure and more inclusive social protections have mitigated the severity of the pandemic's adverse health impacts, more so than emergency containment measures and social restrictions.

야외에서 재배되는 주요 채소류의 생산에 대한 기상변화의 영향력이 점차 커지고 있다. 기상변화로 인한 농작물 생산량의 변화는 공급과 수요의 불안정과 물가안정의 불안요소로 작용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 패널회귀모형을 이용하여 기상상태에 따른 마늘의 생산량을 추정하였다. 2006년부터 2015년까지의 마늘 주산지 15곳의 10a당 마늘 생산량과 해당 지역의 기상자료를 사용하였다. 7가지 기상요인 (평균기온, 평균최저기온, 평균최고기온, 누적강수량, 누적일조시간, 평균상대습도, 평균지면온도)의 월별 (1월-12월)자료인 총 84개 기상변수중 다중회귀분석 단계선택방법을 통하여 7가지 기상변수를 선택하여 패널회귀모형에 사용하였다. 고정효과 모형과 확률효과 모형을 구분하는 하우스만 검정을 통하여 확률효과 모형으로 분석한 결과 평균최고기온 (1월), 누적강수량 (3월, 10월), 누적일조시간 (4월, 10월)등이 마늘 생산량 추정에 유의한 변수로 나타났다. 또한 연도별로 추정된 생산량 추정값의 추이가 실제 생산량과 동일한 추세를 보이고 있어 제안된 패널 회귀 모형이 잘 적합됨을 확인할 수 있다.

Purpose - This research is aimed to investigate the impact of the Information and Communication Technology (hereinafter ICT) development index and ICT investment on Indonesian economic growth. Research design, data and methodology - The data used consist of ICT development index, government expenditure on ICT sector, and economic growth from 33 provinces in Indonesia from 2012 to 2015. Based on the Networked Readiness Index published by the World Economic Forum (WEF), Indonesia was ranked 80^th among 142 countries in 2012 and had climbed 64^th in 2014. This indicates that the businesses in Indonesia have adopted ICTs to increase productivity and expand their activities. Panel data regression analysis is performed to reveal the change of the impact over time in each of the provinces. Result - The ICT development index and government expenditure for ICT have a positive effect on the economic growth of all provinces, although the impact is different in each of the provinces. There is a digital gap between the provinces, especially the large digital gap occurring with DKI Jakarta. The provinces of Eastern Indonesia such as NTT and Papua are still relatively slow in development of ICT. Conclusions - ICT development index and allocation of local government expenditure for ICT have significant effect on economic growth. ICT development index has a bigger role in increasing economic growth.

This study estimates the determinants of national health expenditures of OECD countries using panel regression method. The data used are OECD Health Data(2003) covering 33 countries and from 1970 to 2001. This study shows several important different results compared to the previous studies. Further this study estimates the determinants of Korean case using data from 1m to 2000, and compare with the results of OECD panel. The main findings are as follows. The income elasticity of health expenditures is estimated below 1.0, but is shown above 1.0 when the different health systems of each country are controlled. The women's labor participation influences strongly positive effect on the health expenditures. The diffusion of new technologies is positively related with the increasing expense. The increasing government expenditures have a tendency not to contain health expenses, but to increase expenses. The expansion of public health insurance holders is containing the expenses, and the increasing number of doctors is pushing expenditures. This implies the health expenditures are influenced more by the induced demand of providers rather than the moral hazard of patients. However, the above result is opposite in Korean case. The existence of primary care doctors affects slightly up warding rather than containing expenditures. Finally the determinants are seriously depending upon which factors are included in the model and which statistical model is chosen. Therefore it must be cautious to interpret the results of statistical model.

Purpose: This study purposes to analyze the determinants of the volume of Indonesian tuna exports. Research design, data and methodology: The framework was developed from the gravity model for trade, which was expanded with additional variables of competitiveness, exchange rate, and industrial share of the destination country. The data sources used in this study are UN Comtrade and the World Bank. The data used is yearly data from 12 countries in 2001-2019. The scope of the study is limited to exports to the twelve main export destinations. Panel data regression analysis is used to determine the factors that affect the volume of Indonesian tuna exports. Results: The results show that according to the theory, Indonesia's GDP has a positive effect and economic distance has a negative effect on the volume of the exports. Meanwhile, the GDPs of the destination countries are not proven to have a positive effect. However, the higher the industrial share in the country, the higher the export volume tends to be. Conclusions: The conclusion obtained from this study is that Indonesia's GDP, economic distance, real exchange rate, industrial GDP share of the destination country, and the RCA index affect the volume of Indonesian tuna exports.

This paper examines the persistent properties of 12 sectoral relative prices between Korea and Japan obtained following the Classification of Individual Consumption according to Purpose (COICOP) over the period of 1985-2016. Applying a new econometric method developed by Pesaran which controls for the cross-section dependence in a panel, we are not able to reject the hypothesis that the sectoral real exchange rates contain a common stochastic trend. On the other hand, the well-known panel unit root tests such as the IPS and LLC tests widely used by previous studies strongly reject the unit root hypothesis. Since the error term of the regression for our panel exhibits significant cross-section dependence, these opposite results justify that the use of the new econometric method is appropriate.

한국 선거에서 정치 이념의 역할에 대해 그동안 수많은 연구가 이루어졌으나, 지금까지의 연구들은 예외 없이 횡단면 데이터(cross-sectional data) 분석에 전적으로 의존하였다. 기존의 연구들과 달리 이 연구는 지난 제18대 대통령 선거에서 나타난 이념 투표의 영향을 패널 데이터 분석(panel data analysis)을 통해 보다 엄밀하게 검증한다. 구체적으로, "EAI 총선대선패널조사, 2012"를 이용하여 지난 18대 대통령 선거 시기(2012년 4월 중순-12월 하순)에 정치적이념이 유권자들의 후보 호오도(candidate evaluation)와 후보 선택(vote choice)에 미친 영향을 고정 효과(fixed effects) 분석과 변동 효과(random effect) 분석 등 표준적인 패널 데이터 분석을 통해 살펴보았다. 또한 이념투표의 대표적 설명 모형인 근접성 모형(proximity model)과 방향성 모형(directional change model)을 적용한 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 지난 18대 대통령 선거에서 진보와 보수의 정치적 이념은 박근혜와 문재인후보에 대한 호오도 및 이들에 대한 지지에 독립적이고 유의미한 영향을 미쳤다고 할 수 있다. 즉, 유권자들은 특정 후보와의 이념적 차이가 크다고 느낄수록 그후보에 대한 지지 확률 및 호오도가 상대적으로 낮아졌다. 그리고 이러한 이념투표의 영향은 근접성 모형보다 방향성 모형에서 상대적으로 뚜렷하게 나타났다.

This study observes the difference in the actual regional ripple effect of the decrease in admission resources due to the decrease in school age population, which has been weak in empirical studies, and how much the decrease in competition rate by department nationwide provides a significant shock to the decrease in enrollment rate in the population unit. An empirical quantitative analysis was attempted. As a result of applying the panel-tobit regression model, a clear gap was confirmed in the decrease in the registration rate due to the decrease in the competition rate both nationally and in the provinces, and in particular, a highly significant relationship was derived with the decrease in the recruitment rate. In particular, the sensitivity of the risk of unrecruitment due to a decrease in competition rate was the highest in the Jeolla region (0.499), followed by the Gangwon region (0.475) and the Gyeongsang region (0.471), and the metropolitan region (0.158) was confirmed to be the most stable. This suggests that the gap in insufficient funding has gradually widened by region over the past 10 years, and that the shock wave becomes more pronounced in the provinces farther away from the metropolitan area. Based on this study, if we deviate from the standardized application of university development policies for the metropolitan area and regional universities, and present a customized higher education strategy for each region, it will be an opportunity to prevent local extinction due to a decrease in the school-age population and achieve coexistence with higher education institutions and regions at the same time.
