  • Community-Based Participatory Research(CBPR) has gained attention as a public health approach to develop community health interventions to address health disparities in recognition of the community relevance of specific health issues associated with social determinants of health. It emphasizes community involvement in equal partnership with researchers and public health professionals to address community-identified needs. The characteristics and principles of CBPR discussed in this paper highlight participatory nature, capacity development, partnership building, and process-orientation of CBPR. A 6-step process model for community empowerment is then introduced as a CBPR operationalization strategy. Mixed methods research approaches are valuable in CBPR as well as process evaluation. For the application of CBPR in Korean contexts, the Diffusion of Innovation theory is suggested as a theoretical framework for implementation. Building public health partnerships between public and private sectors to create partnership synergy is a necessary condition for successful CBPR for health promotion in Korea. Accompanying critical factors for the CBPR application include: common understanding of CBPR and its values, establishment of the definition of 'community,' 'community-based' and 'participation' in community health, development of accommodating research infrastructure for CBPR, recognition of the importance of program evaluation (particularly process evaluation), and training CBPR specialists.

  • The user participatory design process collects users' opinions efficiently through a feedback process such as various user workshops and conferences. When users who actually participated in a design process use the facility in which they were a participant, their satisfaction with the design quality of the facility they use may be enhanced; therefore, user participatory design methods in school construction are deemed to enlarge consistently the interest in a school of students, parents, teachers, and local residents. This paper selected the most appropriate user participatory design methods through an analysis of actually applied cases, and applied them to the empirical exploration process. Also, problems incurred through the empirical exploration process were solved by various user participatory design methods based on actually experienced cases and the results of workshops performed. As such, this paper deduced problems by applying user participatory design methods in practice, and solved problems by executing the empirical exploration process again. Through this, the paper proposed a variety of user participatory design methods for improving school design and raising user satisfaction.

  • The purpose of this study is to suggest better ways for operating Slowcity Sangju based on the literature reviews about Participatory planning and empirical investigation. As a form of participatory planning, survey was conducted and examined the perception of residents toward importance of different sub-plans in operating Slowcity. The results show that the residents in Sangju have high level of preference on the economy related plans such as adding values to local products by applying the name of Slowcity to their resources. In addition, the more expectation and understanding to slowcity they have, the more interested in the participatory process and slowcity planning the residents become. Consequently, this research suggests that it is required for successful participatory planning of Slowcity to building an association for operating Slowcity with local peoples.

  • The purposes of this research were: 1) to investigate the effect of participatory management on financial information asymmetry, 2) to investigate the effect of corporate governance on financial information asymmetry, 3) to examine the influences of benefits incentives on financial information asymmetry, and 4) to test the mediating effects of benefits incentive that influences the relationship between participatory management, corporate governance, and financial information asymmetry. The research sample consisted of 388 Thai-listed firms. Data were collected through a survey questionnaire. Descriptive analysis, Multiple Regression Analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling were used for the data analysis. The results revealed: 1) participatory management and participation in evaluation had a negative influence on financial information asymmetry. 2) Corporate governance and the rights of shareholders had a negative influence on financial information asymmetry. 3) Benefits incentive was negatively associated with financial information asymmetry. 4) The model's influences of participatory management, corporate governance on the reduction of financial information asymmetry through benefits incentive as mediator fit the empirical data (Chi-square = 104.459, df = 84, p = 0.065, GFI = 0.967, RMSEA = 0.025). The variables in the model explained 78.00% and 4.70 % of the variance of benefits incentive and financial information asymmetry, respectively.

  • This study investigates whether different SNS with different characteristics have different impacts on participatory social capital in Korea. At least in Korea, SNS are categorized into five types (community, blog, micro-blog, profile-based service and instant message service), and participatory social capital is specified by three types (off-line political participation, on-line political participation, on-line civic engagement). Using Nielsen KoreanClick's web-based survey data, our regression analysis shows that SNS which are more open and focused on information sharing contribute more to participatory social capital.

  • Recent studies of multiple participatory interactive media designs hows that the key element to this area is the participation of the audience. Due to this matter, this paper discusses the categories of the phase and looks into the characteristics of participatory matters to clarify the distinction. The categories that has been mentioned in this paper are multiple participatory types and active participatory types. Based on this matter, research practicing the Mira has been conducted in two separate groups - video and sound, and suggests the solution to the problems that has occurred during the process of implementing the final video system called 'The 360 Project'. The fact that the paper suggests a small range of participatory categories and hasn't come up with a certain analysis to the final outcome appears as a limit. The inadequacy will be supplemented throughout the following paper, hoping there will be improved versions of multiple participatory researches.
