  • Background: It is projected that low and middle-income countries will bear a major burden of tobacco related morbidity and mortality, yet, only limited information is available on the determinants of smoking initiation among youth in Africa. This study aimed to assess the determinants of smoking initiation and susceptibility to future smoking among a population of high school school students in Lagos, Nigeria. Materials and Methods: Baseline data from an intervention study designed to assess the effect of an anti-smoking awareness program on the knowledge, attitudes and practices of adolescents was analyzed. The survey was carried out in six randomly selected public and private secondary schools in local government areas in Lagos state, Nigeria. A total of 973 students completed self-administered questionnaires on smoking initiation, health related knowledge and attitudes towards smoking, susceptibility to future smoking and other factors associated with smoking. Results: Of the respondents, 9.7% had initiated smoking tobacco products with the predominant form being cigarettes (7.3%). Males (OR: 2.77, 95%CI: 1.65-4.66) and those with more pro-smoking attitudes (OR: 1.44, 95%CI: 1.34-1.54) were more likely to have initiated smoking. Those with parents and friends who are smokers were 3.47 (95%CI: 1.50-8.05) and 2.26 (95%CI: 1.27-4.01) times more likely to have initiated smoking. Non-smoking students, in privately owned schools (OR: 5.08), with friends who smoke (5.09), with lower knowledge (OR: 0.87) and more pro-smoking attitudes (OR 1.13) were more susceptible to future smoking. In addition, respondents who had been sent to purchase cigarettes by an older adult (OR: 3.68) were also more susceptible to future smoking. Conclusions: Being male and having parents who smoke are predictors of smoking initiation among these students. Consistent with findings in other countries, peers not only influence smoking initiation but also influence smoking susceptibility among youth in this African setting. Prevention programs designed to reduce tobacco use among in-school youth should take these factors into consideration. In line with the recommendations of article 16 of the WHO FCTC, efforts to enforce the ban on the sales of cigarettes to minors should be also emphasised.

  • 최근 몇 년간 청년자영업자의 비중이 꾸준히 증가하고 있고, 정책적으로도 청년들의 창업을 적극적으로 권장하고 있다. 하지만 자영업 노동시장을 검토하고 있는 대다수의 국내 선행연구에서는 상대적으로 중·장년층에 초점을 맞추고 있으며, 청년층의 자영업 노동시장에 관한 선행연구는 일부 연구에서 제한적으로 다루어져 왔다. 특히 청년들의 자영업 진입요인을 별도로 검토한 연구는 부족하며, 분석방법도 전 연령대를 대상으로 한 자영업 진입연구에서 활용한 이론을 적용하고 있다. 하지만, 청년층과 중·장년층은 노동시장 조건과 가족 배경, 인적자본의 축적수준 등이 다르므로 별도의 설명체계와 이론이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 15세~29세의 연령층을 별도로 구분하여 청년층의 자영업 진입요인을 탐색적으로 분석하였다. 분석에 사용한 자료는 한국노동패널조사 9~20차 데이터를 활용했으며, 청년 실업률과 고용률은 통계청의 경제활동인구조사를 참조하였다. 분석대상은 현재 경제활동을 수행하고 있는 청년으로 한정하였으며 분석방법은 다층로짓분석(multi-level logit model)을 활용했다. 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 구조적 차원에서는 실업률이 낮고 고용률이 높을수록 청년층이 자영업에 진입하는 경향이 있다. 둘째, 개인적 차원에서는 가구의 금융자본이 많고 안정적인 직업보다는 고수익을 추구하거나 직업 적성 적합도를 추구하는 경향이 강할수록 자영업에 진입하는 것으로 나타났으며, 학력과 부모의 자영업 경험은 청년층의 자영업 선택에 유의미한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 분석되었다.

  • The age of the very first smoking is a significant indicator of life-long health status. Smoking prevention intervention was actively conducted based in middle and high schools with the support of the Korean Act for Health Promotion since 1998. These governmental supports became large and various smoking prevention programs were developed and conducted in diverse standards and perspectives. This study made a comprehensive descriptive literature review on smoking prevention educational programs for youth in Korea to identify the intervention quality and effectiveness of them for future smoking prevention program development. A total of 28 peer-reviewed journal articles published between May, 1995 and May 2005 (for the last 10 years) were finally included in this review process. The study participants should be adolescences in middle or high schools in Korea and the intervention types of the review studies should be smoking prevention or cessation educational programs. The outcomes of the reviewed studies were reanalyzed by the participants' characteristics, theory basement, evaluation design, intervention period, evaluation outcomes, and program effectiveness Most smoking intervention programs were not specified by sex and smoking status. Largely most intervention programs focused on male students although female students' smoking percent is increasing including both smokers and nonsmokers. Based on the school grades, the large percents of smoking intervention were conducted to the first grade of middle school and the first grade of high school. Almost 70% of the reviewed studies did not apply any health behavior change theories and the Transtheoretical model and social cognitive theory were utilized in 7 studies among the last reviewed 30%. The theory-based intervention studies had greater effectiveness than the non-theory based studies. More than 90% had quasi-experimental evaluation design and the effectiveness of the non-experimental designed study seemed over estimated than the quasi-experimental or experimental designed studies. More than 60% of the reviewed studies made their education for less than j days, over a short period and the evaluation factors were knowledge and attitude in general which can be obtained in short intervention period. Therefore, smoking intervention programs for youth in Korea need to be modified in terms of research design such as the intervention period, intervention-evaluation design, theory-based approach, and population-focused intervention specification.

  • 정부와 민간기업에서는 현재의 청년실업을 극복하고 청년창업 및 지역 고용을 활성화하기 위해 다양한 창업 인프라 기관을 지역 내 구축하고 있음에도 불구하고, 이와 관련한 선행연구는 창업 인프라 기관이 예비창업자들의 창업 의지에 미치는 영향을 중심으로 제한적으로 다루어져 왔다. 본 연구는 이러한 연구 공백을 채우고 지역 창업 인프라 기관이 지역 고용에 과연 어떠한 효과가 있는지 N사의 창업 인프라 기관인 파트너스퀘어를 대상으로 규명해 보고, 향후 창업 인프라 효과성 검증 관련 후속 연구의 기반을 마련하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 N사 파트너스퀘어의 지역 고용 효과성을 검증하고자 정부통계데이터인 경제활동인구조사(통계청)의 원자료를 계량모형인 이중차분법(Difference-in-Differences)으로 분석했다. 주요 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 파트너스퀘어 서울의 설립은 서울 청년층의 취업을 통계적으로 유의하게 증가시키지 못하는 것으로 나타났으나, 파트너스퀘어 부산의 설립은 2017년 5월~2019년 7월 기간에 평균 취업자 수(575천 명)의 약 3%를 상승시켜 지역 청년취업자수를 약 1만 7천 명 증가시키는 것으로 나타났다. 파트너스퀘어 광주는 설립된 후 2018년 9월~2019년 7월 기간에 평균 취업자 수(267천 명)의 약 1.7%인 4천 5백 명 증가시키는 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 창업 인프라 기관인 파트너스퀘어 부산과 광주가 지역의 예비창업자 및 창업자를 대상으로 다양한 창업교육프로그램 및 네트워크를 형성할 수 있는 프로그램을 제공하여, 창업자들의 성장에 도움을 주고 있으며, 통계적으로 유의미하게 지역 고용을 활성화시키고 있는 것으로 판단된다. 이러한 연구 결과는 창업 인프라 기관이 지역경제 및 고용 활성화에 도움을 주고 있음을 정부통계데이터를 통해 탐색적으로 실증분석을 했다는 점에서 시사점을 갖는다. 추후 연구에서는 정부의 산업육성정책, 파트너스퀘어 이외 창업 인프라 기관 등 지역 고용효과에 미칠 수 있는 다양한 외생변수를 고려한 연구가 진행되어야 할 것이다.

  • Objectives: More than half of youth smokers start to use cigarettes in their middle-school ages. Thus, middle school students should be the primary target population for smoking prevention education although the technical smoking rate is higher in high school students than in middle school students. Based on this significance, this study examined personal and social factors reinforcing non-smoking middle school students to acquire positive attitudes on smoking cigarettes. Methods: A total of 1,081 students of the 3 middle schools in Seoul participated in the self-administered survey. The designated schools were conveniently selected and all the 2nd-grade students of the schools participated in the survey. The questionnaire asked reinforcing social factors of smoking such as, family and parental history of drug use, close-people's smoking and drug use, personal experience of drug use, perceived smoking and drug use knowledge and attitudes, perceived smoking intention in future, and other delinquent behaviors. Results: Personal experience of drug and delinquent behaviors, perceived smoking intention in future, perceived knowledge of smoking, educational experience, and close-people's smoking and drug use were significantly related to students' attitudes on smoking. The significant factors affecting the positive attitudes of smoking were living with broken family and few education experience of smoking in school as social factors and strong smoking intention in future, high score of delinquent behavior, and low score of drug use knowledge as personal factors. Conclusions: Adolescents' strong smoking intention and little smoking education experience would primary personal and social factors reinforcing positive attitudes on smoking. Thus, school-based educational programs preventing smoking intention need to be developed and to be delivered to middle school students to minimize the future smoking population in a long-term perspective.

  • 이 논문에서는 여성 임금과 출산율의 관계를 미국자료(NLSY79)를 통해 분석하였다. 여성임금은 사회학적 시각에서는 역할충돌을 완화하는 기제로, 경제학적 시각에서는 소득효과와 대체효과가 혼재되어 있는 것으로 이해될 수 있다. 분석 결과, 여성의 시간당 임금과 출산수준은 대체로 부의 상관관계를 보였다. 정의 관계를 보인 경우는 대졸여성의 자녀수와 그녀의 2년 전 시간당 임금의 경우 뿐이었다. 연령대별로 나누어 살펴보면, 나이가 들어갈수록 부의 관계는 약화되는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 이산형 위험모델을 통한 분석결과, 이러한 관계는 교육수준에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 고졸이하의 여성은 임금이 상승할 때 출산을 줄이는 경향이 나타났지만, 그이상의 학력을 가진 여성은 임금이 상승할 때 오히려 출산을 늘이는 경향이 나타났다. 이는 상대적으로 고소득이 기대되는 고등교육을 바진 여성에게서만 임금상승이 역할 충돌을 완화하는 작용을 성공적으로 하고 있다고 볼 수 있다. 또한 임금상승의 의미가 저학력 여성에겐 대체효과가 더 크고, 고학력 여성에겐 소득효과가 더 크다고 해석될 수 있다. 이는 출산을 미룬 대졸여성들에겐 노동시장에서 성공이 출산에 긍정적 관계를 갖는다는 의미를 보여준다.

  • Purpose - Intra-industry trade of agricultural products can eliminate the disadvantage of Korea's traditional agriculture and improve its lack of comparative advantage. The main purpose of this paper is to measure the level and index of intra-industry trade of Korean agricultural products and to explore the spatial dependence and spillover effect associated with this type of trade. The main factors influencing intra-agricultural trade are analyzed from two perspectives: the population and the classification of agricultural products. Design/methodology - First, the level of intra-industry trade of Korean agricultural products is measured. Second, to obtain a more accurate estimate of the influence of various factors, and based on two types of weight matrices, a spatial econometric model is constructed from two aspects: population and classification of agricultural products. The status and the factors influencing intra-industry trade are also studied. Findings - It is concluded that there is a positive spatial correlation between Korea's intra-industry trade in agricultural products and that of its trading partners. The spatial spillover effect of this type of trade is verified by using the spatial autoregressive model (SAR). Labor-intensive agricultural products are found to have a positive spillover effect on intra-industry trade, while land-intensive products do not have a significant effect. Originality/value - In this paper, the two types of agricultural products are meticulously distinguished, and the spatial effect of the intra-industry trade of agricultural products as well as the influence of various factors are analyzed. In addition, the accuracy of the estimation of the coefficients of the factors by using the spatial econometric model is higher than that of the ordinary panel data model.

  • Thanks to the popularization of golf, the population of young golfers including female players has been continuously increasing and the market specialization of golf-wear has been gradually intensifying with a growing number of new import brands in the market. This study is aimed to provide a direction to strengthen and invigorate the competitiveness of domestic golf wear brands through research on the benefits pursued by, the purchase attitudes towards local and overseas brands and the purchasing behaviors of female customers who have emerged as the newest customer group in the golf-wear market. The subjects of the research were 409 female golfers and the statistical analyses used for the study were factor analysis, cluster analysis, ANOVA, Scheffe test, and chi-square test. The results showed that there were six factors sought for golf-wear benefits: figure compensation, brand orientation, comfort, youth/fashion, maturity/conformity, and individuality. Cluster analysis showed that there were three groups of golf-wear benefits sought. Overall, the three groups were different in regard to golf involvement and golf-wear preferences. Based upon the results mentioned above, this study summarizes the key features of each group and can provide applicable suggestions for conducting strategic marketing activities.
