Compulsive hoarding becomes a problem when the spaces hoarded items are stored in become unusable due to clutter, health, or safety issues. Our research purpose was to document relationships between two non-normative consumer behaviors (compulsive hoarding, compulsive buying tendency) and two shopping-related variables: hedonic shopping motives and emotional attachment to possessions with everyday consumers. As hedonic shopping motives have been related to compulsive buying, we predicted these motives (e.g., adventure, gratification, role, value, social, and idea) are related to compulsive buying. We also examined the relationship between compulsive buying and compulsive hoarding tendency and whether emotional attachment to possessions moderated this relationship. Participants were 280 undergraduate and graduate students attending a Midwestern university in the U.S. Regression analysis revealed the enhancing emotion motive (a combined motive of adventure and gratification) positively influenced compulsive buying whereas the value motive negatively influenced compulsive buying. All other hedonic shopping motives were non-significant. Participants who tended to buy compulsively were likely to hoard compulsively. This relationship, however, was moderated by participants' emotional attachment to possessions. Participants with high emotional attachment to possessions showed a higher level of hoarding behavior than those with low emotional attachment to possessions. However, the increase in hoarding tendency among participants with low emotional attachment to possessions was larger between those who were low in compulsive buying and those who were high in compulsive buying than the increase between these two groups among participants with high emotional attachment to possessions.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the analytical model of the implicit price according to objective and subjective characteristics of housing. The hedonic price regression was used for estimating the implicit price. The subjectives of this study were 1,143 dwellers who live in Seoul metropolitan area. Taejeon, and Jeonju. Satistical analyses were conducted using frequencies, percentiles, mean, and multiple regression. The major findings were as follows: 1. There was a significant difference in the implict price of the apartment between owners and renters. 2. There was a sginificant difference in the implicit price of the apartment among Seoul metropolitan area, Taejeon, and Jeonju. 3. Using a stepwise multiple regression method, the order of variables as they were entered in the model were different between tenure types (owner/renter), and regions(Seoul metroplitan area/Taejeon/Jeonju). 4. The linear model was the most appropriate noe which explained the housing price. 5. Subjective characteristics of housing in Taejeon and Jeonju had an effect on the housing price more than those in Seoul metropolitan area.

Over recent years, there have been more comprehensive studies conducted word-widely on the WLB covering not only the conflicting relationships between work and life but also facilitating relationships between work and life, in a method of classifying whether a conflict or a facilitation was derived from the work or from the life. However, such studies are hardly identified in Korea. The objective of this study is, therefore, to examine the effect of the WLB on innovative behavior in Korean society, when the WLB are subdivided into three sub-variables defined as work-life conflict, life -work conflict, and work-life facilitation, and to determine the mediated effect of psychological well-being(hedonic well-being and eudaimonic well-being). The hypothesis was verified using factor analysis, descriptive statistics, and regression analysis in questionnaires collected from 299 office workers. As a result, the study found that work-life conflict and work-life facilitation significantly effected psychological well-being and innovative behavior. However, life-work conflict was not a significant factor on hedonic well-being and innovative behavior. In addition, eudaimonic well-being showed mediating effect to the relationship between WLB and innovative behavior, while hedonic well-being did not effectively mediate them.

The purpose of this study is 1) to investigate the effects of Internet apparel store attributes, shopping values, Internet usage, and consumers' characteristics on consumers' Internet apparel purchasing behavior; and 2) to identify the influence of Internet apparel store attributes, Internet usage, and consumers' characteristics on the Internet apparel purchasing behavior of hedonic or utilitarian consumers. The data were collected via an online survey. A total of 4,254 Internet users participated in this survey. Only 589 out of the users' reponses were used as a sample for this research, because those users had previously experienced Internet apparel purchasing. Factor analysis revealed five dimensions of Internet apparel store attributes: site design/navigation, promotion programs, trust, product assortment/ information, and customer service. Based on the respondents' shopping value scores, we identified them as hedonic or utilitarian consumers. Through multiple regression analyses, site design/navigation and promotion programs among store attribute variables, hedonistic or utilitarian shopping values, the number of years on the Internet, income, and educational level were found to be significant predictors of Internet apparel shopping frequency. Among them, hedonistic shopping values were the best predictor of Internet apparel purchasing frequency. Based on the Internet apparel purchasers' shopping value, purchasers were divided into two groups. For hedonic Internet apparel shoppers, the number of years on the Internet, educational level, sex, age, and income were significant predictors of Internet apparel shopping behavior. On the other hand, promotion programs among store attribute variables was the only significant factor that affects utilitarian consumers' Internet apparel shopping behavior.

Many former industrial cities such as Cleveland, Ohio are trying to transform their identities from blue-collar manufacturing centers to white-collar professional hubs. As a result, the re-use of land previously occupied by industrial firms has been on the rise as an important sustainable land-use strategy in the United States. Ohio's Cuyahoga County offers a Brownfield Redevelopment Fund to overcome the environmental barriers inherent in re-use in order to obtain full use of underutilized properties in the county. This study estimates externality effects of brownfield redevelopment projects (BRPs) on nearby housing sales prices in Cuyahoga County. Typical hedonic regression models that employ "difference-in-difference" techniques are used to compare proximal housing sale prices before and after the completion of BRPs.
