As urbanization progresses, there is a growing and continuous demand for green spaces that provide ecosystem services. However, increasing the quantity of green spaces within major cities is challenging. Therefore, it is essential to pursue qualitative improvements that consider ecological characteristics of existing green spaces. In this study, we focus on local neighborhood parks in Seoul and present the following two questions through an evaluation utilizing ecological design indicators and land use data: 1. Which factor, design or location, has a greater influence on the ecological quality of neighborhood parks in Seoul? 2. Additionally, when evaluating ecological characteristics, is there similarity between assessments based on land-use data and those utilizing ecological design indicators? For this study, we conducted research on 30 neighborhood parks in Seoul and classified them into mountainous types (adjacent to mountains, natural terrain parks) and urban types (independently designed within 300m without existing forests) based on previous studies. Firstly, we conducted evaluations according to park location types. When comparing the evaluation scores of urban types (14 parks) and mountainous types (16 parks), significant differences were observed with scores of 16.86 and 35.94, respectively. Statistical analysis showed a significant difference between park types. In terms of habitat quality, the average values for urban and mountainous parks were 0.33 and 0.53, respectively, and statistically significant differences were observed between park types indicating differences in ecological potential according to park location. Secondly, when comparing the results of ecological potential evaluations based on park design and external connectivity, a correlation was found between habitat quality and total scores according to evaluation indicators. The correlation analysis showed significant linear relationships between habitat quality and total scores, biodiversity scores, and ecosystem function scores, with high positive correlation coefficients of 0.829, 0.861, and 0.802, respectively. This study holds significance in analyzing the ecological aspects of urban parks through the lens of both park location characteristics and design indicators. The analysis results underscore the importance of planning and managing ecologically sound urban parks contingent upon their location. Moreover, the utilization of appropriate ecological design indicators can help alleviate environmental limitations surrounding parks. Integrating these considerations could enhance the ecological quality and ecosystem services of urban green spaces.

Recently, due to the globalization of the IT(Information Technology) market, devices and systems designed in one country are used in other countries as well. This phenomenon is becoming the key factor for increased interest on cross-cultural, or cross-national, research within the IT area. However, as the IT market is becoming bigger and more globalized, a great number of IT practitioners are having difficulty in designing and developing devices or systems which can provide optimal experience. This is because not only tangible factors such as language and a country's economic or industrial power affect the user experience of a certain device or system but also invisible and intangible factors as well. Among such invisible and intangible factors, the cultural characteristics of users from different countries may affect the user experience of certain devices or systems because cultural characteristics affect how they understand and interpret the devices or systems. In other words, when users evaluate the quality of overall user experience, the cultural characteristics of each user act as a perceptual lens that leads the user to focus on a certain elements of experience. Therefore, there is a need within the IT field to consider cultural characteristics when designing or developing certain devices or systems and plan a strategy for localization. In such an environment, existing IS studies identify the culture with the country, emphasize the importance of culture in a national level perspective, and hypothesize that users within the same country have same cultural characteristics. Under such assumptions, these studies focus on the moderating effects of cultural characteristics on a national level within a certain theoretical framework. This has already been suggested by cross-cultural studies conducted by scholars such as Hofstede(1980) in providing numerical research results and measurement items for cultural characteristics and using such results or items as they increase the efficiency of studies. However, such national level culture has its limitations in forecasting and explaining individual-level behaviors such as voluntary device or system usage. This is because individual cultural characteristics are the outcome of not only the national culture but also the culture of a race, company, local area, family, and other groups that are formulated through interaction within the group. Therefore, national or nationally dominant cultural characteristics may have its limitations in forecasting and explaining the cultural characteristics of an individual. Moreover, past studies in psychology suggest a possibility that there exist different cultural characteristics within a single individual depending on the subject being measured or its context. For example, in relation to individual vs. collective characteristics, which is one of the major cultural characteristics, an individual may show collectivistic characteristics when he or she is with family or friends but show individualistic characteristics in his or her workplace. Therefore, this study acknowledged such limitations of past studies and conducted a research within the framework of 'theoretically integrated model of user satisfaction and emotional attachment', which was developed through a former study, on how the effects of different experience elements on emotional attachment or user satisfaction are differentiated depending on the individual cultural characteristics related to a system or device usage. In order to do this, this study hypothesized the moderating effects of four cultural dimensions (uncertainty avoidance, individualism vs, collectivism, masculinity vs. femininity, and power distance) as suggested by Hofstede(1980) within the theoretically integrated model of emotional attachment and user satisfaction. Statistical tests were then implemented on these moderating effects through conducting surveys with users of four digital devices (mobile phone, MP3 player, LCD TV, and refrigerator) in three countries (US, Germany, and Russia). In order to explain and forecast the behavior of personal device or system users, individual cultural characteristics must be measured, and depending on the target device or system, measurements must be measured independently. Through this suggestion, this study hopes to provide new and useful perspectives for future IS research.

개념적 모델링(conceptual modeling)은 정보시스템 개발에 있어서 중요한 역할을 수행한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 이를 성공적으로 수행하기 위해 어떠한 방법을 채택해야 하고 그 결과를 어떻게 평가해야 할 것인지에 대한 이론적 성과는 충분하지 않다. 부분과 전체에 대한 개념적 모델링을 평가하기 위해 온톨로지 이론을 도입한 최근의 연구, "Representing Part-Whole Relations in Conceptual Modeling : An Empirical Evaluation"(Shanks et al., 2008)은 개념적 모델링 평가에 실험법을 도입했다는 긍정적인 측면에도 불구하고 비판에 직면했다. 또한 이에 대한 반대 의견이 제시되면서 개념적 모델링을 연구하거나 실무에 활용하려는 사람들에게 혼란을 초래하고 있다. 본 연구는 Bunge-Wand-Weber 온톨로지의 이론적 배경과 성과를 검토하고 논쟁에서 제외된 부분과 전체에 관한 이론적 논의를 추가하여 과연 Shanks et al.의 연구에 대한 비판이 타당한 것인지 살펴본다. 이들 연구에 대한 비판이 주로 실험적 방법의 오류를 지적한 것과 비교하여 본 연구는 Shanks et al.의 연구가 번지(Bunge) 온톨로지를 잘못 활용하고 있으며, 패러다임의 문제라는 지적은 그 근거가 확실하지 않으며, 부분과 전체에 관한 연구개념의 타당성을 확보하지 않았음을 밝혔다. 본 논문을 통해 우리는 Shanks et al.의 연구는 실증적 타당성에 대한 문제뿐만 아니라 기존의 온톨로지 개념들을 적절히 활용하지 않았고 결과적으로 부분-전체에 관한 개념적 모델링 이론에 기여하기보다는 서로 다른 모델링 패턴 간의 단순한 비교에 그쳤다는 점을 주장한다.

Increasingly the institutional theory has been an important theoretical view of decision making process and IT adoption in many academic researches. This study used the institutional theory as a lens through which we can understand the factors that enable the effective appropriation of advanced information technology. It posits that mimetic, coercive, and normative pressures existing in an institutionalized environment could influence the participation of top managers or decision makers and the involvement of users toward an effective use of IT in their tasks. Since the introduction of IT, organizational members have been using IT in their daily tasks, creating and recreating rules and resources according to their own methods and needs. That is to say, the adaptation process of the IT and outcomes are different among organizations. The previous studies on a diverse use of IT refer to the appropriation of technology from the social technology view. Users appropriate IT through not only technology itself, but also in terms of how they use it or how they make the social practice in their use of it. In this study, the concepts of institutional pressure, appropriation, participation of decision makers, and involvement of users toward the appropriation are explored in the context of the appropriation of the mobile electronic medical record system (M-EMRS) in particularly a hospital setting. Based on the conceptual definition of institutional pressure, participation and involvement, operational measures are reconstructed. Furthermore, the concept of appropriation is measured in the aspect of three sub-constructs-consensus on appropriation, faithful appropriation, and attitude of use. Grounded in the relevant theories to appropriation of IT, we developed a research framework in which the effects of institutional pressure, participation and involvement on the appropriation of IT are analyzed. Within this theoretical framework, we formulated several hypotheses. We developed a second order institutional pressure and appropriation construct. After establishing its validity and reliability, we tested the hypotheses with empirical data from 101 users in 3 hospitals which had adopted and used the M-EMRS. We examined the mediating effect of the participation of decision makers and the involvement of users on the appropriation and empirically validated their relationships. The results show that the mimetic, coercive, and normative institutional pressure has an effect on the participation of decision makers and the involvement of users in the appropriation of IT while the participation of decision makers and the involvement of users have an effect on the appropriation of IT. The results also suggest that the institutional pressure and the participation of decision makers influence the involvement of users toward an appropriation of IT. Our results emphasize the mediating effect of the institutional pressure on the appropriation of IT. Namely, the higher degree of the participation of decision makers and the involvement of users, the more effective appropriation users will represent. These results provide strong support for institutional-based variables as predictors of appropriation. These findings also indicate that organizations should focus on the role of participation of decision makers and the involvement of users for the purpose of effective appropriation, and these are the practical implications of our study. The theoretical contribution of this study is lies in the integrated model of the effect of institutional pressure on the appropriation of IT. The results are consistent with the institutional theory and support previous studies on adaptive structuration theory.

본 연구는 두 가지의 연구관심으로부터 출발한다. 첫째, 가족정책 연구 분야에서 가족법이 등한시되었다는 것인데, 가족법은 가족생활에 대한 국가 개입의 핵심임에도 불구하고 비교연구방법을 사용한 선행연구의 부족으로 많이 다루어지지 못하였다. 둘째, 법학에서의 가족 및 가족정책의 개념 및 접근 방법을 살펴봄으로써 가족정책의 외연이 넓혀질 수 있다는 것이다. 이 둘을 결합하여 본 연구는 법학에서의 부양 공동체라는 분석틀을 도출하여 유형구분의 시각에서 한국과 EU 16개국의 가족법의 주요 내용을 비교하고자 한다. 사용되는 방법론은 주관적 해석을 배제하여 부부관계와 부모자녀관계에서 부양의무와 관련되는 주요 내용을 살펴본 후, 사생활과 자율성이라는 기준을 통해 가족법 체제의 유형구분을 군집분석을 통해 시행하는 것이다. 분석결과를 살펴보면 군집분석 대상 16개국은 북구(노르웨이, 스웨덴) 서북유럽(덴마크, 프랑스, 영국, 핀란드, 벨기에) 그리고 중남유럽(이태리, 스페인, 오스트리아, 포르투갈, 네덜란드, 그리스, 아일랜드, 독일, 한국)등 세 개의 군집으로 분류되었다. OECD 21개국의 가족정책을 대상으로 군집분석을 한 선행연구와 비교하면, 세 개의 군집으로 분류되는 것은 동일하지만 덴마크와 핀란드는 가족정책에 의하면 북구군집에 속하였으나 가족법의 분류에서는 서북유럽 군집으로, 독일, 오스트리아, 네덜란드, 아일랜드 등은 유럽대륙·영연방군집에 속하였으나 중남유럽군집으로 분류되었다는 차이가 있다. 본 연구의 이론적 함의는 가족법에서도 가족정책의 군집분석과 같이 세 개의 군집으로 구분되었다는 점에서 일관성이 있으나, 몇 개의 국가는 가족정책과 가족법에 속하는 유형이 다르다는 점에서 포괄적인 의미의 가족정책이 항상 일관성을 가지는 것은 아님을 알 수 있다.
