This research investigates the intricate dynamics governing loyalty and recommendation behaviors. The primary objective is to discern the impact of community development on user loyalty and its subsequent influence on product recommendations, using the Indonesian online brand community of the software Micromine as a case study. The technology acceptance model, which argues that adoption is done because of perceived ease, and cognitive dissonance theory, which describes how individuals adjust to reduce discomfort, provide the framework for this study. Utilizing a quantitative methodology, all 300 members of the online Micromine Indonesia community population were surveyed. The findings reveal that community members establish emotional connections through active participation in community forums. Satisfaction with the software's solutions in mining endeavors is prevalent among Micromine community members. Regression analysis showed that a positive attitude about the brand community was positively correlated with both brand loyalty (R² = .83) and the likelihood of recommending the brand (R² = .78). This supports both theories, where brand community members adopt technology and reduce discomfort by supporting community activities.

The Press related Energy including nuclear energy has social responsibility that it should pass the scientific factors to the right. It is essential to ensure the accuracy and fairness. The general public, such as press releases and information obtained through indirect communication affects social acceptance of nuclear power, which is used to determine the direction of energy policy, the most important factor to be taken into account. Recent rapid increase coverage of NPP lose in balance of nuclear power plants. In this study the qualitative interviews were performed with the workers who stand directly in obtaining information about nuclear related organizations. By E-mail and FGI the data were collected from the workers' perception about domestic nuclear news. They perceived the NPP news that the negative aspects of nuclear power plants were too much dealt in nuclear news coverage, and risk of NPP is only exaggerated and distorted, the lack of expertise knowledge on nuclear power and recognize that the cause was a lack of understanding. 'Nuclear mah' for the event were aware that should dig more thoroughly. The Journal of Digital Policy & Management.

CANDU spent fuel is to be disposed of at repository finally rather than recycled because of its low fissile nuclide concentration. But the difficult situation of finding a repository site can not help introducing a interim storage in the short term. It is required to find an optimum timing of geological disposal of CANDU spent fuels related to the interim storage operation period. The major factors for determining the disposal starting time are considered as safety, economics, and public acceptance. Safety factor is compared in terms of the decay heat and non-proliferation. Economics factor is compared from the point of the operation cost, and public acceptance factor is reviewed from the point of retrievability and inter-generation ethics. This paper recommended the best solution for the disposal starting time by analyzing the above factors. It is concluded that the optimum timing for the CANDU spent fuel disposal is around 2041 and that the sooner disposal time, the better from the point of technical and safety aspects.

This paper deals with the study of bird collision avoidance measures in UAM operations from an operator's perspective. Urban air traffic is defined as a next-generation transportation system that uses environmentally friendly electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft to provide transportation services between key points within and around urban centers. For the successful establishment of the UAM industry, it is necessary to ensure safety issues that determine public acceptance. Among the hazards that can occur in aviation operations, preventing bird collisions in urban environments is a measure that can greatly secure operational safety and public acceptance. In addition to physical measures, procedural control measures are required to prevent bird strikes. In order to ensure the safety of UAM operations, this study aims to provide a direction for the establishment of UAM bird collision prevention measures by categorizing bird collision prevention measures into physical and procedural methods and flight sections such as takeoff, landing, and corridor sections. Through this, we hope to contribute to the improvement of the safety of the urban air traffic operation system.

In this paper, we review recently emerging smart applications, and analyzed policy implications in light of digital convergence perspective. While extant literatures on smart applications mainly dealt with consumer behaviors based in technology acceptance model or innovation adoption, the research on digital management policy is rather limited. We intend to fill this research gap. As such, we first organize two categories of smart work and smart commerce, and investigate the representative service models, four service models were reviewed for each category respectively. Next, the three policy related constructs are extracted, which are QoL(Quality of Life), public impacts in both the positive and negative ways. Finally, empirical analysis following the Delphi principle was conducted to investigate the policy implications. The results offer useful insights for the further research in digital convergence related policy areas.

CCS(Carbon Dioxide Capture and Storage) is considered as the most effective counterplan in the mitigation of climate change. Even though the risk of leakage of $CO_2$ stored in the geologic formation is very low, the public is expected to disagree with the initiation of a CCS project without proper management plans ensuring the safety. In this study, recognition of laypeople were surveyed about CCS, climate change, characteristics of carbon dioxide, storage concepts, ground pressure, the impact of carbon dioxide, and carbon dioxide for leakage. Thereafter the factors that could affect to recognition of CCS were analyzed by regression analysis. A survey was carried out to find out the public understanding and awareness about climate change and CCS. It is the purpose of this study to propose appropriate risk management strategies based on the findings from the survey.
