The purpose of this study were; (1) to investigate the relationship between the general values and 3 aspects of clothing behaviors. (2) to investigate attitudes toward Korean clothing between students and their mothers. General values were measured by the Allport-Vernon-Lindzey Study of Values(Part 1 only), which determines relative prominence of six basic values. Three aspects of clothing behaviors were assessed by statements dealing with satisfaction, exhibitionism, and fashion. Korean clothing measures consisted of statements dealing with positive and negative attituded toward psychological and practical aspects. The samples consisted of 200 students(student group) and 100 mothers (mother group) in Daejon. The data were analyzed by correlation and t-values. The results obtained through this study were as follows: 1) Positive relationship were found between: (1) Aesthetic value and the exhibitionism of clothing, (2) Aesthetic value and the fashion of clothing. Negative relationships existed between (1) Theoretical value and the exhibitionism of clothing, (2) Economic value and the fashion of clothing, (3) Social value and the fashion of clothing. 2) Significant differences were found between two groups(students and their mothers) : Economic, aesthetic, and political values as well as exhibitionism and fashion in clothing behaviors. 3) In general, highly positive attitude toward Korean clothing was found on psychological aspect, while highly negative attitude was found on practical aspect. Significant differences were found between two groups; (1)‘Graceful’of psychological aspect and‘economic’,‘inexpensive’of practical aspect in positive attitudes toward Korean clothing, (2)‘Unsuitable to current life style’,‘not modern’and‘not beautiful’of psychological aspect in negative attitudes toward Korean clothing.

This study performed intensive indicators based on a model of economics of education. Trends of childcare in Korea were obtained by producing values developed with statistical data. Results showed that such simple initial indicator values as numbers of children, institutions and teachers have improved. However, intensive indicator values that take demographic and economic conditions into consideration have not reached the same rate of progress as the initial indicator values. In other words, qualitative growth remains at an unsatisfactory level in comparison to quantitative growth and to qualitative growth in members of the Organization for Economics Cooperation and Development (OECD).Thus, financial investment by the government should be expanded in order to reach the desired level of high quality in daycare for children.

From a sustainability perspective, the characteristics of upcycling fashion design by Marine Serre were analysed to understand upcycling fashion design, which can be an important way to follow sustainability values in the fashion industry, and to provide solutions for moving towards sustainable fashion. In order to derive the characteristics of upcycling fashion design from a sustainability perspective, the values of sustainable designs and the characteristics of the upcycling design were derived though the analysis of Marine Serre's seasonal collections from the 2018 F/W season to the recent 2022 F/W season. The research results are summarized as follows. First, the value of sustainable fashion design could be classified into environmental, economic, social, and cultural values. Second, Marine Serre's upcycling fashion design was driven by the characteristics of sustainable upcycling fashion design, such as environmentality, originality, variability, economy, handicraft, time, and availability. Third, Marine Serre's upcycling fashion design contained all environmental, economic, social, and cultural sustainability values. From a sustainability perspective, Marine Serre's upcycling fashion design can be said to be an upcycling fashion design with convergent values that encompasses all of the sustainability core values of environmental, economic, social, and cultural aspects.

Total Economic Value (TEV) provides a framework to estimate the economic value of water resources including groundwater with multiple applications to natural resource economics and environmental economics. Crucial to the application of economic analysis to natural resources are techniques to value the resources as an economic value that is expressed in monetary terms. On the other hand, the aim of TEV estimation is to determine the economic value of water resources including 'use' with production and recreation and 'non-use' such as existence values. TEV is used to assess the economic value of water resources for the multiple goods, and environmental 'services' that are provided by a water resource and also used to assess options for water use, for example balancing production values provided by water resource use against the cost of resource degradation by that use. The value of TEV can be assessed over time where pollution or unsustainable use may reduce the economic value of an environmental asset. Therefore, values are used to assess options of resource use, sometimes leading to policies on resource conservation or allocation. In conclusion, the application of TEV would be well adjusted over Jeju Island where groundwater resources account for more than 98% water resources and the budget of water demand/supply shows disparity over the Island.

Purpose - This study aims to develop a valid and appropriate method for measuring the economic value of intangible cultural resources. Design/methodology/approach - Building upon the concepts explored in many studies on the total value regulation of public goods or environmental goods, which are non-market value commodities, with a focus on the intangible cultural property Arirang, this study aims to formulate a new economic value concept for cultural resources that contributes to the overall economic total value, including non-use value. Based on this foundation, the study aim to identify and apply the most efficient model(CVM) among economic value measurement methods, as suggested by Tietenberg (2003). Findings - This involves estimating economic value through consumer behavior, encompassing the use or experience of cultural resources, as well as utilizing statements to estimate economic methods through consumer surveys. Only by presenting individual resource economic values of cultural resources in objective figures can a foundation be established for creating budgets and organizational structures to promote projects and policies. Research implications or Originality - Appropriate decisions can then be made by comparing these values with the expected costs in the management and planning process.

The objectives of this study were to identify the types of work values of radiological technology students and to verify the characteristics of them. The population of this study was the radiological technology students from 7 colleges randomly chosen in the whole country. data collected from 791 subjects were used. Types of work values were identified through the factor analysis and t-test between variables was used to determine the characteristics of the students. The research instrument used in this study was the Maryland Work Value Inventory(MWVI) designed by Meitus, R. The findings of this study were as follows ; 1. The types of work values of radiological technology students can be classified into 6 categories ; social contribution, achievement, capability, work interest, social status, economic reward. 2. Social contribution, achievement, capablity and work interest were classified as 'internal work values', while social status and economic reward as 'external work values'. 3. Work values of the radiological technology students were economic reward, social status, achievement, capablity, work interest, social contribution in order. 4. External work values of the radiological technology students got higher grade than internal work values.

The present study investigates the impact of perceived value metrics in driving satisfaction and behavioral intention to use e-resource among its users. Utilitarian, hedonic, uniqueness, epistemic, and economic are key values selected for the purpose of investigation in the study. This empirical study is carried out through a survey and responses have been analyzed using structural equation modelling. The target group is selected by means of simple random sampling (users of e-resources in selected business schools). Findings of the study reveal that utilitarian values, hedonic values, epistemic values, and uniqueness values have a significant impact on the usage intention of e-resources; however, economic values reflect an insignificant relationship to intention to use e-resources. The study is a distinctive piece of work on investigating the most and the least significant value(s) associated with satisfaction and usage intentions of e-resources.

This research is a construct to understand CSR and pro-social consumption behavior of fashion consumers which classifies CSR efforts of fashion company and conducts positive analysis of the relationship between such characteristics and social relationship behaviors(sharing of values, consciousness of kind, consciousness of future expectation) and pro-social consumption behavior. For this path analysis was conducted utilizing a sample of 430 consumers who have experience of CSR efforts of fashion brands. The result is as follows. First, as a result of the path relationship among CSR efforts & sharing of values of fashion brands, consciousness of kind and consciousness of future expectation, economic efforts, relational efforts and cyclical efforts meaningfully affected sharing of values, whereas creative efforts did not. Also, relational and creative efforts meaningfully affected consciousness of kind, whereas economic and cyclical efforts did not. Furthermore, economic, relational and cyclical efforts meaningfully affected consciousness of future expectation, when creative efforts failed. Second, as a result of the analysis of path relationship among sharing of values, consciousness of kind, consciousness of future expectation and pro-social consumption behavior of social relationships, sharing of values had a meaningful impact on consciousness of kind, consciousness of future expectation and pro-social consumption behavior. And finally consciousness of kind and future expectation showed meaningful influence on pro-social consumption behavior.
