The goal of this study is to determine, based on survey results, the underlying factors that affect the intention of the farmers who have not adopted the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP) system for the rearing phase of pig production to adopt this system in the future. The research model for this study was con structed based on strategic contingency theory, the theory of the diffusion of innovation, and the technology acceptance model (TAM). Using structural equation modeling with partial least squares (PLS), this study analyzes the effects of the intensity of competition, the environmental uncertainty, the innovativeness and self-efficacy of the individual farmers, and the impact of the credibility of the Agricultural Technology Service Center (ATSC), which acts as the principal agent of technology dissemination and as a leader of change, on the perceived usefulness of technology and the farmers' intention to adopt the system. The results of the analysis are as follows. First, with regard to the underlying factors affecting the intention to adopt the new system, the intensity of competition within the industry and the institutional credibility of the ATSC were inferred to underlie the perceived usefulness. Second, institutional credibility has a positive impact on the perceived usefulness of the system, and the perceived usefulness, in turn, has a positive impact on the intention to adopt. The perceived ease of use also has a positive impact on the intention to adopt. Because the factor that has the biggest impact on the intention of a farm to adopt is the credibility of the ATSC, it is crucial for extension organizations, such as the ATSC, to make greater efforts to promote the expansion of the HACCP system. Because farmers feel that the implementation of the HACCP system is an instrumental strategy for coping with the high intensity of competition within the industry, they attempt to gain a competitive edge through the production of safe livestock products.

본 논문의 목적은 한국 석유화학산업의 글로벌가치사슬 내 위치 변화와 한국 석유화학산업의 특성의 관계를 살펴보는 것이다. 한국 석유화학산업은 1960년대 정부의 정책적 지원 하 빠르게 성장하였고, 1980년대 수출주도형 산업으로서 한국 국가경제발전의 핵심 기간산업이 되었다. 1980년 말부터 한국 석유화학산업은 민간 주도의 대규모 생산설비 확충을 바탕으로, 한국은 글로벌 석유화학산업의 주요 국가로 자리매김하였다. 국내 석유화학산업의 공간적 분포는 울산광역시, 여수시, 서산시를 중심으로 상당한 공간적 집중이 나타난다. 그러나 석유화학산업 내 부문별로 지역별 공간적 집중 정도는 차별적으로 나타난다. 국내 석유화학산업은 지역마다 경쟁력 강화를 위해 차별적인 전략을 취함으로써, 구조고도화 및 고부가가치 제품 생산으로 전환하고자 한다. 국가 수준의 석유화학산업 내 구조 변화는 한국 석유화학산업의 GVC 참여 구조 변화를 유발하였지만, 주요 경쟁국에 비해 국내 부가가치는 낮은 수준이다.

한국의 해운기업에 대한 정책지원이 제한적이고 금융지원 등도 규모적인 면이나 지원시기 등에서도 적합성, 적기성 등에 문제가 해소 되어야 하며, 산업회복 가능성을 높이기 위해서는 이에 대한 종합적인 대책이 필요하며, 선사 스스로도 경쟁력확보를 위해서 부단한 노력이 필요하며, 향후 환경규제 강화에 대비하고, 해운기업의 특성상 탄력적인 대응이 이루어 질수 있도록 함이 필요하다. 조선산업은 극심한 불황속에서 작년 호전되는 시기를 맞았으나, 외부 및 내부 구조적 문제대한 쇄신이 필요하며, 미래 선도적인 산업의 특성을 갖추기 위해서 정부 합동으로 지속적인 R&D 투자를 통해 핵심기술 확보와 경쟁국가간 차별화되고 특화된 산업경쟁력 확보가 이루어지도록 해야 환경 규제 대응 선박 및 경제적 선박 건조 능력을 갖출수 있다. 부산항의 경쟁력은 동아시아의 지정학적 특성을 살리고 지역경제 활성화에 기여하고 국가 중추 기간 허브항만으로서의 위상 발전을 도모하고, 동아시아 물류 선진국가 위치를 확고히 하도록 해야 하며, 이를 위해서는 항만 운영의 질적인 변화와 선진화, 스마트 항만화, 원양 메가캐리어 기항 확대, 항만운영 신속화 및 저비용 창출 항만으로 인한 선주 화주의 경제성도모하고, 선주 화주의 이용성 확대전략 확립이 필요하며, 동북아시아 4개국의 네트워크 구축으로 러시아 랜드브릿지 시스템과 중국 랜드브릿지 시스템을 활용한 유라시아와 구주지역까지의 물류망 구축 등 장기적인 글로벌 연계망 구축도 필요하다.

This study was conducted to lay the foundation for considering the qualitative aspects of environmental resources by calculating the weight of each environmental resource to calculate the total amount of environmental resources in Jeju. By comparing and analyzing the results of the expert survey conducted in 2011 and the results of the expert survey conducted in 2011 and 2022, changes in experts' perceptions and implications over time were derived. In addition, based on the results of the recent survey, the weight according to the relative importance was calculated to lay the foundation for calculating the total amount of environmental resources in Jeju. The results of this study are expected to provide basic data necessary for the successful institutionalization of the total environmental resource system by providing a scientific basis for the calculation of the total environmental resource. As a result of comparing the survey conducted in 2011 to the survey conducted in 2022 to establish a total environmental resource management plan in Jeju Special Self-Governing Province, there was a difference in the relative importance of the environmental resource category. Although the ranking between categories did not change, it was confirmed that the relative importance of the natural and local resource environment decreased and the relative importance of the living environment field increased significantly. Over time, the importance of plants and wildlife increased, the importance of landscapes and topographic geology decreased, the importance of wetlands and caves increased, and the importance of Gotjawal, natural monuments, and cultural history decreased. In the living environment category, the importance of water pollution increased significantly, and in the humanities and social environment category, the importance of population increased and the importance of industry decreased. It is judged that most changes in item importance are largely influenced by changes in the background of the times and overall perception. It was confirmed that the importance of plants, wildlife, wetlands, and caves with relatively high awareness and the importance of water pollution, which is emerging as a regional problem, have all increased significantly due to structural problems of population age.

The acid-labile subunit (ALS) is known to interact with the IGF binding protein (IGFBP) in the presence of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs). Studies, however, indicate that ALS forms a doublet with IGFBP3, independent of IGFs. To characterize the structural domain required for the IGF-free ALS-IGFBP3 interaction, seven recombinant human IGFBP3 mutants were generated: three deletion mutants and four site-specific mutants that had altering N-terminal regions of IGFBP3. ALS and IGFBP3 mRNAs were co-injected into Xenopus oocytes, and their products were cross-linked and immunoprecipitated using antisera against ALS or IGFBP3. Among the deletion mutants, the mutant of D40 (deleted in 11-40th amino acids) exerted no effect in the interaction with ALS, while D60 (${\Delta}11$-60) demonstrated a moderate reduction. D88 (${\Delta}11$-88), however, showed a significant decrease. In the case of site-specific mutants, the mutation that alterated the IGF binding site (codons 56 or 80) exerted a significant reduction in the interaction, whereas codons 72 or 87 showed no significant change in the interaction with ALS. The stability of the ALS-IGFBP3 interaction was analyzed according to a time-dependent mode. Consistent with the binding study, mutants on the IGF binding sites (56 or 80) consistently show a weakness in the ALS-IGFBP3 interaction when compared to the mutants that covered the non-IGF binding sites (72 or 87). This study suggests that the N-terminal of IGFBP3, especially the IGF binding site, plays an important role in interacting with ALS as well as in stabilizing the dual complex, independent of IGFs.
