This study was conducted to empirically analyze the effect of the physical work environment of SMEs on work satisfaction and work performance. For the research, the physical work environment was subdivided into Focusing on Personal Working space, co-working space, and amenity space to establish a research model. For empirical analysis, a questionnaire survey was conducted targeting small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs) workers. 250 valid copies were taken for analysis. Hypotheses were tested by multiple regression using SPSS 24. The study results were as follows. Focusing on Personal working space, co-working space, and amenity space all had a significant positive (+) effect on job satisfaction of SME employees. In addition, Focusing on personal working space, co-working space had a significant positive (+) effect on job performance. Amenity space was not tested for a significant influence on job performance. The contribution of this study was to identify the causal relationship between the physical work environment and the employee's job satisfaction and job performance in the absence of studies. In future research, it is ultimately necessary to identify the relationship with the business performance of a company.

Artists using exhibition spaces can select exhibition spaces considering marketing activities provided by operators or organizations of exhibition spaces, so it is necessary to study the relationship between marketing activities and satisfaction factors. This study examines marketing mix 7P factors, satisfaction, and prior studies as a theoretical background to demonstrate the decisive factors of the artist's exhibition hall satisfaction. As a result of analyzing the questionnaire collected from 144 artists used the exhibition hall, among the 7P factors of marketing mix, product, price, and progress process influenced the satisfaction of the exhibition hall, and the influence was in order of progress, product, and price. The suggestions are as follows. First, among the 7P factors in marketing mix, the fact that products, prices, and progress influencing the satisfaction of the exhibition place emphasizes factors related to the actual exhibition. Second, among the 7P factors in the marketing mix, the process had the greatest influence on the satisfaction of the exhibition hall, which means that the service delivery process is important.

This study was conducted with the aim of comparing and analyzing the relationship between visitors' characteristics and service satisfaction, overall satisfaction and loyalty (revisit intention, recommendation intention) of recreational forests and arboretums. The main results are as follows. First, the scores given for service satisfaction, overall satisfaction, and loyalty of the users of the recreational forests were all higher than those given by the visitors to arboretums, and the service satisfaction level was relatively different from that of the overall satisfaction level or loyalty of the users. Second, the service satisfaction level of the recreational forests did not affect the overall satisfaction level and visitor loyalty, whereas the service satisfaction level of the arboretum was found to be positively correlated with the overall satisfaction level and visitor loyalty. The results are meaningful given that the visitors to recreational forests and arboretums are distributed throughout the country; thus, we confirmed that there are differences in visitor characteristics between the two types of forest recreation areas. In order to differentiate operation strategies for each type of forest recreation areas, the development of common survey items covering the entire set of services provided by forest recreation areas is needed. In addition, it would be advantageous to further develop and modularize the relevant items and conduct surveys in parallel with common survey items, as the service contents are operated selectively to function in accordance with the purpose of creating each forest recreation area.

Although many studies have been conducted on techniques and effects that can be applied to forest meditation in domestic forest healing meditation research, there has been little research on the space where forest meditation takes place. Nevertheless, a meditation space is not just a place concept but a forest environment element responsible for the healing function of a forest, i.e., a place containing healing factors, and can be an essential clue to the healing mechanism. Therefore, to determine whether a healing forest meditation space is suitable for meditation, this study selected the attribute items of the meditation space using the Delphi expert survey and then surveyed the user satisfaction of the healing forest meditation space using the IPA (Importance Performance Analysis) technique. The survey was conducted from August to November 2022, targeting 315 adults who used the forest meditation space at the National Center for Forest Therapy, the Saneum Healing Forest, and the Jathyanggi Pureunsup Arboretum in Gyeonggi Province. The result of the IPA analysis showed the average satisfaction with the forest meditation space was relatively high at 4.33 points on a 5-point Likert scale (4.33 points for the National Center for Forest Therapy, 4.34 points for the Saneum Healing Forest, and 4.37 points for the Jathyanggi Pureunsup Arboretum), indicating that the three healing forest meditation spaces were suitable for forest meditation. Satisfaction with the "Sounds of nature" was high in all three forests. On the other hand, all three forests showed a relatively low satisfaction with "Quietness," indicating it to be a priority problem to be addressed. Also, an open-ended questionnaire survey showed that the mediation space's natural elements, such as natural sounds, scenery, air, forest spaces, and scents, had a higher positive impact on meditation satisfaction than artificial elements, such as facilities. Therefore, it is essential to secure sound resources such as the sound of water and birds around the meditation space, and it is also necessary to consider ways to create a meditation forest in an independent area to avoid encounters with visitors and allow only participants in the forest healing meditation program to enter to increase satisfaction with forest meditation.

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate visitor satisfaction(VS) in waterfront parks in terms of resources, facilities, embodiment of theme(ET), site composition(SC), relaxation activity space(RAS), and dynamic activity space(DAS), which are supply-side components in the planning process of waterfront parks, in order to answer the research question; 'How is visitor satisfaction of waterfront parks determined?' After reviewing the literature on parks and the building process of waterfront parks in Korea, we constructed a conceptual framework and have ascertained a research hypothesis. We had obtained data through a questionnaire survey from 327 visitors at waterfront parks, based on the quota sampling method. We have analyzed the data using the path analysis method. We found that: 1) The direct effects of resources and facilities on VS turned out to be 0.273 and 0.306, respectively while the indirect effects are 0.114, 0.170, respectively. 2) The direct effects of SC, as a component of the planning process on VS, turned out to be 0.243 while that of ET had no affect on VS. The indirect effect of ET and SC on VS turned out to be 0.059 and 0.018, respectively. 3) The direct effects of RAS on VS turned out to be 0.129 while the indirect effects of RAS and DAS on VS turned out to be 0.002 and 0.017, respectively. 4) The size of causal effect, in order, were facilities, resources, SC, RAS, ET, and DAS. 5) Resources and facilities, as a park foundation, compose 64.84 percent of total causal effect while ET and SC have 24.04 percent and RAS and DAS have 11.12 percent, respectively. These research results imply that: 1) Existing waterfront parks should be regenerated with the embodiment of water related theme and with improved facilities for RAS and visitor programs and/or facilities for DAS. 2) The relationship among ET, SC, RAS and DAS should be increased for a significant improvement of VS, and 3) A process-oriented approach turned out to be highly useful for the development of substantive theory and methodology. It is recommended that a structural equation model on waterfront parks be developed using more empirical data and this approach be widely applied for testing its validity.
