The objective of this study is to analyze the factors increased use of environmentalfriendly agricultural product in school food service. For this, I surveyed the perceptions on environmental-friendly agricultural product and willingness-to-pay for increasing use to 500 parents of elementary, middle and high school. As a result, the perception of environment and safety is the highest, but health and consumption is the lowest. The average of willingness-to-pay is about 12,136 Won per month. But 14.2 percent of the total respondents said that they did not have a willingness-to-pay, and 62.6 percent said that they would pay an additional 10,000 won or less. The factors affecting the willingness-to-pay were gender, income, health and consumption factors. Despite the low level of parents' perception of the health and consumption factors for environmental-friendly agricultural products, health and consumption factors affect statistically significant on the willingness-to-pay compared to others. Most of the promotion and education of environmental-friendly agricultural products has focused on safety, but this study suggests that education on the health and correct consumption of environmental-friendly agricultural products is important.

Purpose - The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of performance-related pay on gender labor productivity differences theoretically and empirically. Design/methodology/approach - This study analyzes the Principal-Agent model in which a firm employes many male and female workers under moral hazard, and uses large survey data from Survey of Business Activities of MDIS (MicroData Integrated Service) in Korea. The fixed-effect model is employed in order to analyze the data. Findings - The theoretical result is that, after performance-related pay is offered to workers, the effect of performance-related pay on gender productivity is determined by whether the female ratio within firm affects firm's performance(such as revenue and profit) per capita. The empirical result is that, before performance-related pay is provided for all workers, the firm's female ratio does not affect firm's revenue and profit per capita at all, but after it is offered, the female ratio positively affects firm's performance per capita. Research implications or Originality - Fixed pay does not bring about the difference between male and female productivity, but performance-related pay affects female productivity more positively than male productivity in Korean firms. It means that female workers are more sensitive to incentives than men in Korea.

The purpose of this study is to verify the mediating effect of pay satisfaction on the relation between procedural justice and organizational commitment. A survey was conducted to examine the mediating effect of pay satisfaction on the responses of 529 employees. The study chose sex, age, education, position, job type and career as control variable, and the regression model which treated procedural justice as independent variable and organizational commitment as criterion variables were set. A pay satisfaction was supposed as mediating variable of these relationships. The data analysis was conducted by SAS 9.4ver and LISREL 8.80. The results of this study confirm underneath the followings. First, the relation of procedural justice and organizational commitment are significantly unique. Second, procedural justice are positively related to pay satisfaction. Third, pay satisfaction is significantly positively related to organizational commitment. Fourth, the pay satisfaction is partially mediated on the relationship between procedural justice and organizational commitment. This means that the pay satisfaction mediates the relation of procedural justice and organizational commitment. These results are different from the prior researches which had treated pay satisfaction as mediating variable of procedural justice and organizational commitment. Based on the findings of the study, this study presented managerial implications and suggestions for future studies.

This study uses contingent valuation method (CVM) to elicit willingness to pay monthly for electricity or heating produced by renewable energy (RE). The experts who participated in the conference of the Korean Society for New and Renewable Energy in May of 2008 were asked to answer the questionnaires: how much would you be willing to pay monthly to receive electricity (or heating) generated by RE? We find some evidence that the respondents have higher willingness to pay for RE electricity than RE heating even if the average electric bills were lower than the heating bills. The respondent who belongs to a large family and has a good opinion of RE tends to show high willingness to pay for both RE electricity and RE heating.

This study analyzed consumers' willingness to pay for price increases to avoid the purchase of GM foods by the expansion of GMO labeling. The subjects were asked about their knowledge of GM, concerns of potential hazards, and sources of obtained GM information. The logit model was employed and marginal effects were calculated to interpret the results. The results showed that consumers who perceived the safety of GM technology were less likely to pay for price increases, while consumers who had concerns about GM foods were more likely to pay. In addition, the study demonstrated that consumers residing in urban areas and with low levels of education and income were also less likely to pay for price increases.

This study intended to estimate the willingness-to-pay amount by farmers for the automatic guidance technology of Combine. Contingent Valuation Method was employed for this estimation using survey data from 65 Combine using farmers. Based on the dichotomous choice model, farmers’willingness-to-pay for the automatic guidance technology was ranged from ￦4,772,000(median) to ￦5,268,000(mean). The estimated willingness-to-pay by the for the new technology was approximately one quarter of the average value based on the willingness-to-pay for the new technology was approximately one quarter of the average value of Combine in sample farms. This implies that there is an economic rationals for developing the new technology as long as it will be available with the cost less than the amount of estimated willingness-to-pay.

Though easy payment service is the most well accepted one among various fin-tech services, the users still face difficulties and feel embarrassed when they use it. Over the past few years, many studies have been done on the users' experiences of easy payment service but there are little studies directly exploring the users' inquiries on the web. In this paper, we analyzed users' questions on Kakao Pay, Naver Pay, and Samsung Pay in Naver Jisik-iN, the biggest inquiry service in Korea from 2019 to 2020. We used keyword analysis, association analysis, and sentiment analysis. We found out that each payment service has distinct inquiries from the users according to its platform which it is based on.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to identify the relationship between Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB) and quality of service (QoS) on pay satisfaction for employees at small-and medium-sized hospital that adopted an annual salary system. Methods : The subjects were 136 employees working at 2 Small-and Medium-sized Hospitals in Seoul and Daejeon. The data were collected from May 11 to May 22, 2015 using a structured questionnaire. For data analysis, descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, t-test, ANOVA and Scheffe test were used with the SPSS 21 package. Results : The mean score for pay satisfaction perceived by the employees at small-and medium-sized Hospitals that adopted an annual salary system was 1.74. The mean score for OCB and QoS was 4.02 and 4.43, respectively. The pay satisfaction perceived by the employees at small-and medium-sized Hospitals that adopted an annual salary system were positively related to the OCB. Pay satisfaction was positively related to the QoS; however, it was not statistically significant. The OCB and QoS showed a significant difference in age, marital status, and education level. Conclusions : Small and Medium sized Hospitals have to develop an efficient pay management system which evaluates the CSFs and KPI of every department or staff member.
