This paper investigates the relationship between the minimum wage and firm's export behavior by using firm-level data of Vietnamese manufacturing enterprises over the period 2010 through 2015. In this regard, I apply the logistic regression model for the probability of exporting and the differences-in-differences analysis to the data, and find that raising minimum wage standards drive no new exporters but a rise in a firm's export sales. Less productive and more labor-intensive firms raise their amount of exports in response to increasing minimum wage levels. Being exposed to increasing minimum wage levels makes a firm under-perform in terms of export sales compared to non-exposed firms.

How can we reconcile our aspirations for more economic growth or prosperity with the constraints of a finite planet? One of the high-income countries, Japan, makes us wonder if we can deal with two different challenges simultaneously: overcoming economic recession and solving environmental degradation. This study investigates the supply-side perspective which highlights the productive capacity and efficiency of the economy through economic lenses and the demand-side perspective which highlights the Japanese personal lifestyles through social lenses. This study aims to answer the question, if Japan's sustainable consumption behavior is counter to economic development whilst environmentally proactive. It finds that translating individual practices and cultures of sustainability into the macro- scopic economic growth path is key to a sustainable and healthy Japan.

본 연구는 기업 근무자를 대상으로 정보지향성과 기술사업화능력이 기술성과에 미치는 영향에 관하여 분석하였다. 정보지향성은 정보기술능력, 정보관리능력, 정보행위 및 가치를 기술사업화능력은 제품화능력, 생산화능력, 마케팅능력을 하위변수로 구성하였고 기술축적역량을 조절변수로 하였다. 기업 직장인으로부터 수집한 온라인과 오프라인 설문지 349부에 대한 실증분석을 실시하였다. SPSS v22.0과 Process macro v3.4를 사용한 분석결과 첫째, 정보지향성과 기술성과는 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났고, 정보지향성이 기술사업화능력에 미치는 영향에서는 모두 유의적으로 나타났고, 기술사업화능력의 변수에서 제품화능력과 생산화능력에 미치는 영향력의 크기는 정보기술능력, 정보관리능력, 정보행위 및 가치의 순으로 나타났으나, 마케팅역량에 미치는 영향에서는 앞선 결과와 다르게 정보행위 및 가치, 정보관리능력, 정보기술능력의 순으로 나타났다. 둘째, 기술사업화능력이 기술성과에 미치는 영향에서 정보지향성과 독립적으로 기술사업화능력의 제품화능력, 생산화능력, 마케팅능력은 기술성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 정보기술능력과 정보관리능력은 기술성과에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 정보행위 및 가치에서 제품화능력과 마케팅능력을 경유하는 간접효과는 유의적으로 나타났으나, 생산화능력을 경유하는 간접효과는 비유의적으로 나타났다. 넷째, 기술사업화능력의 하위변수 중 생산화능력과 기술축적 역량의 상호작용항만이 유의적으로 나타났고, 기술축적역량과 제품화능력, 마케팅능력은 비유의적으로 나타났다. 그러므로 생산화능력과 기술성과 간의 관계가 기술축적능력이 높은 기업이 낮은 기업보다 낮을 것이라고 해석할 수 있으며 후속 연구로는 다른 독립변수의 도입, 매개변수 및 조절변수가 도입된 모형을 통한 연구가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

The purpose of this research is to see if liquidity, non-performing assets, sensitivity, and efficiency have an impact on the profitability and capital of Indonesian state-owned banks. A random sample of public banks was used in this study. The data was collected from the first quarter of 2014 to the fourth quarter of 2019. Purposive sampling was used as the sampling technique. According to the findings of this study, liquidity (LDR) had a significant positive effect on capital but had no significant effect on profitability. Productive asset quality as proxied by the ACA and NPL ratios did not affect profitability or capital. As for the sensitivity ratio, which was proxied by the ratio of NOP and IRR, there were differences in behavior. Sensitivity had no significant impact on profitability or capital, while NOP had a significant positive impact on capital but not on profitability. In terms of efficiency, both OER and FBIR had a significant effect on profitability and capital, although in different directions. OER has a significant negative impact on both profitability and capital. Fee-based income (FBIR) had a significant positive impact on capital, but it had the opposite effect on profitability.

Background: Nowadays, counter-productive work behaviors (CWBs) have turned into a common and costly position for many organizations and especially health centers. Therefore, the study was carried out to examine and compare the demand-control-support (DCS) and effort-reward imbalance (ERI) models as predictors of CWBs. Methods: The study was cross-sectional. The population was all nurses working in public hospitals in Hamadan, Iran of whom 320 were selected as the sample based on simple random sampling method. The instruments used were Job Content Questionnaire, Effort-Reward Imbalance Questionnaire, and Counterproductivity Work Behavior Questionnaire. Data were analyzed using correlation and regression analysis in SPSS18. Results: The findings indicated that both ERI and DCS models could predict CWB (p ≤ 0.05); however, the DCS model variables can explain the variance of CWB-I and CWB-O approximately 8% more than the ERI model variables and have more power in predicting these behaviors in the nursing community. Conclusion: According to the results, job stress is a key factor in the incidence of CWBs among nurses. Considering the importance and impact of each component of ERI and DCS models in the occurrence of CWBs, corrective actions can be taken to reduce their incidence in nurses.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the factors influencing social adaptation of chronic mental illness. The subjects of this study were 190 patients, over the age of 20 with chronic mental illness diagnosed by a physician, and living in Seoul, Korea during May, 2000 to December 2000. The instruments for this study were the social adaptation scale by Wallace (1979), the self-esteem scale by Rogenberg (1965), social support scale by ParkJiWon (1985), coping behavior scale by Shirley Zeitlin (1978), self efficacy scale by Sherer et. al (1982), and Rand mental health inventory(1979). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, pearson correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. The results of this study are as follows: 1. The level of social adaptation showed moderate (M=3.43). 2. The social adaptation showed significant positive correlation with self-esteem (r=0.39, p=0.00), self-efficacy (r=0.31, p=0.00), social support (r=0.47, p=0.00), self-productive coping (r=0.14, p=0.05), self-flexible coping (r=0.22, p=0.00), environment-active coping (r=0.21, p=0.00), and environment-flexible coping (r=0.14, p=0.04). The social adaptation showed significant negative correlation with anxiety (r=-0.16, p=0.02), and emotional problems (r=-0.18, p=-0.00). 3. The stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed that the most powerful predictor of social adaptation was social support (21%). A combination of social support, depression, behavioral controllability, self-efficacy, and environmental coping behavior accounted for 39% of the variance in social adaptation in chronic mental illness. From the results of this study, it is suggested to develop and apply a social adaptation training program for chronic mental illness.

The purpose of this study was to investigate efficient treatment in obesity. In order to help clinical application in obesity treatment, this study was performed to investigate the cause and treatment in obesity. The main finding of this study were as follows. 1. In the cause of oriental medicine in obesity, that were moisture(濕), phlegm(痰), gore(瘀), the productive heat(積熱), overeating, supemutrition, underaction, heredity and habitude, psychologic factor(stress) etc. 2. In the western medicine, the cause of obesity were genetic cause, endocrine disorder, hypothalamic extraodinary and secondary effect of drug. But simple obesity is the greater part. Also there were psychologicai and environmental causes. 3. Ear acupuncture of wide application were Naebunbi, Sinmun, Taejang, $ij{\check{o}}m$, $Pyej{\check{o}}m$, $Bij{\check{o}}m$ etc. 4. Body acupuncture of application were $Naej{\check{o}}ng$, $Sangg{\check{o}}h{\check{o}}$, Pungnyung, Kokchi, $Sam{\check{o}}mgyo$, $Umn{\check{o}}ngch{\check{o}}n$ etc. 5. In oriental medical treatment of obesity, Bangpungtongs ngsan(防風通聖散), Daesihotang(大柴胡湯), Seungkitang(承氣湯), Bangkihwangkitang(防己黃?湯), Richulsaryeungtang(二朮四笭湯), Taeksatang(澤瀉湯), Opieum(五皮飮), Gongyundan(控涎丹) etc were wide applicated. 6. The western medical treatment in obesity encourage the dietary cure, exercise cure and behavior adjustment than medical therapy or operation. In treatment of obesity, the dietary cure and herb-drug therapy, ear acupuncture and body acupuncture are effective. But weight maintenance after treating is more important. After all the continuous dietary cure, behavior adjusting cure and exercise cure are necessary.

Purpose - This research intends to find out whether R&D cost stickiness shows differentiated aspects depending on exports in Korea. A cost behavior that indicates a lower rate of costs decrease when sales decrease than the rate of costs increase when sales increase is called cost stickiness. This sticky cost behavior is caused by considering the adjusting costs. This study aims to empirically verify that R&D cost stickiness is greater in export firms than in non-export firms. We also investigate the effect of exports on R&D cost stickiness is nonlinear. Design/methodology - We obtain data for the analysis from Kis-Value and TS2000 from 2012 to 2020. This study tests for R&D cost stickiness of exports using the cost stickiness model developed by Anderson et al. (2003) that is used in a lot of prior literature. To explore the nonlinear behavior of R&D cost stickiness we include a quadratic term of exports in our model. Findings - The results of our analysis are as follows. First, we observed that R&D costs of export firms are more sticky than that of non-export firms. Our result indicated that export firms are less likely to reduce R&D costs in decreasing sales periods in preparation for future sales recovery. Second, our empirical evidence shows that export firms view R&D costs much favorably. However, we hypothesize that the effect of export intensity on R&D costs may not necessarily be linear. Our result shows the effect of exports intensity on R&D stickiness is thus nonlinear, forming a reverse U-shaped curve. When export intensity exceeds a certain threshold, the growth rate of R&D costs appears to be viewed negatively. Firms with relatively high export intensity do not support R&D costs, viewing them as taking away firms' resources from other more productive costs. On the contrary, those with export intensity under the threshold view R&D costs as beneficial and therefore promote further R&D costs when revenue decreases. Originality/value - The results of this research can contribute academically to the expansion of empirical research on R&D cost stickiness. R&D cost stickiness varies by industry. As a result of our research, the managers of export firms recognize the importance of R&D to lead innovation. We expected that this research contributes to further studies on R&D costs and cost stickiness. Second, this research has implications from a business perspectives. Our findings of export firms' R&D stickiness suggest that export firms' managers should consider keeping the stickiness of R&D when revenue decreases because it is essential for exporting firms to maintain their R&D stickiness to secure long-term competitiveness. R&D stickiness can be used on a practical basis to emphasize the need for continuous investment in exporting firms' R&D activities.

오늘날의 어촌은 심각한 고령화와 인구유출로 지역소멸의 위기에 처해있다. 최근 어촌지역을 대상으로 추진되고 있는 사업이나 연구들의 경우 어촌을 외부인 중심적 시각으로 바라봄으로써, 일상생활 공간으로서의 어촌 공간에 대한 지역민 중심적 이해가 부족한 상황이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 어촌 지역 정주환경에 대한 이해를 목적으로, 어촌 거주민들의 이용 행태를 분석하여 어촌지역 외부공간 이용행태의 특성과 생활상을 이해하고 이를 바탕으로 장래 어촌공간 계획의 개선사항을 도출하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 우선 연구참여자들을 대상으로 한 설문과 마을주민들이 직접 작성한 마을지도를 통해 마을 거주민의 공간인식을 살펴보았으며, GPS를 통해 주민들의 마을 공간 이용행태를 분석하였다. 분석 결과 어촌 주민들은 어업 등의 생산활동에 집중하여 그 밖의 여가활동 등의 공간에 대한 인식이 부재한 것으로 나타났으며, 행태분석을 통해 나타난 실제 이용 공간도 어항구역을 중심으로 어촌계사무실·선착장 등 생산활동 관련 시설 및 공간에 집중되어 있었다. 이러한 마을 내 공간의 단조로운 이용행태는 대상지 내 이용 가능한 시설의 절대적 부족에서 기인한 것으로 보인다. 이는 마을 내 시설들이 관광객 유치를 목적으로 도입되어 주민들의 생활 편의성과 이용성이 고려되지 않았음을 보여준다. 따라서 향후 어촌지역 주민들의 삶의 질 개선을 위한 마을 재생사업 추진 시에는 어촌지역민들의 공간인식과 이용에 대한 이해가 선제적으로 고려되어야 할 것이며, 본 연구의 결과가 이러한 어촌마을 공간과 주민들의 공간이용에 대한 이해의 기초자료로 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
