The present study investigates the relationship between social competence and economic performance in social enterprises. Social enterprises simultaneously pursue social value creation and economic value creation, two of which are not easily compatible each other. This study explores the conditions under which these two values can synergize with each other and thereby, positively affect each other's performance. In particular, I examine how two important social competences, that is, social identity and social alliance, influence economic performance of social enterprises. Using the secondary data on social enterprises from Korea Social Enterprise Promotion Agency, I run OLS regression analyses to test hypotheses. I find that investment on social value creation, only when it aligns with social identity, has a statistically significant and positive relationship with economic performance of social enterprises. Further, the study finds evidence that social alliance in and of itself does not affect economic performance of social enterprises. However, social alliance does have a positive influence on social enterprises' economic performance, only when taking into account social alliance partners' organizational attributes and a focal social enterprise's degree of readiness to absorb expected gains from social alliance altogether. The present study improves our understanding on social entrepreneurship research by suggesting how social enterprises can enhance two seemingly incompatible values in a simultaneous manner. I also discuss potentially fruitful future research agenda based on the present paper's findings.

This research has been conducted among 809 social workers in I city to examine the effects of professional autonomy and collaboration on the job satisfaction of social workers. Moreover, the study has been assessed with resources and data to reliably attain the results. Accordingly, the data findings for the research was used with SPSS 25, to examine its frequency, correlation, regression, and other necessary measures. Firstly, there were significant correlations among professional autonomy, collaboration, and job satisfaction. Second, professional autonomy has directly influenced the social workers without the mediator variable on their job satisfaction. Lastly, the collaboration with professional autonomy had also shown decisive effects on the job satisfaction level. Therefore, based on the results of this research, we need a sustainable strategy and advanced collaboration with professional autonomy to enhance and reform our current social service system.

기업과 소비자간 일대일 상호작용을 가능하게 하는 전자상거래의 기술적 발달을 통해 소비자에게 더 나은 웹 경험을 제공하기 위해 개인화 서비스를 제공하고 있다. 개인화 추천을 수행하기 위해서는 추천을 받을 사용자와 유사한 다른 사용자들의 선호도를 반영하는 협업 필터링 기법이 많이 활용되고 있으며, 많은 사이트들이 추천을 받은 사용자에게 유사한 사용자들을 보여주어 사회망 연결을 위한 기회를 제공하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 웹 기반 개인화 추천 시스템을 이용하여 사용자에게 효과적으로 제품을 추천하기 위해서, 사회적 실재감(Social Presence)이 추천시스템의 만족도에 미치는 영향에 관하여 연구하고자 한다. 또한, 사회적 실재감을 높이기 위한 방안으로 사회망(Social Network) 데이터의 제시를 통해 다양한 차원의 사회적 실재감과 추천시스템에 대한 만족도 및 신뢰간의 영향관계를 분석한다. 이를 위해 실험집단을 나누어 세 가지 차원의 사회적 실재감을 부여하고, 집단간의 추천 시스템에 대한 신뢰와 만족도간에 차이가 있는지를 분석하였다.

경영환경이 개별기업간의 경쟁에서 기업집단 군의 경쟁으로 변화하여 감으로써 기업간 협력의 중요성이 점차 커지고 있다. 많은 선행 연구들이 기업간 협력의 중요성을 강조하고 있으나, 기업의 오랜 역사적 경험 속에서 생겨나는 정보기술 활용 능력과 사회자본이 기업간 협력에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 명확하게 설명하지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기업간 협력의 촉진요인과 성과와의 관계를 알아보고자 하였다. 기업간 협력의 촉진 요인으로 제시된 정보기술의 활용능력과 함께 사회 자본을 추가로 제안하고, 이들이 기업간 협력을 강화해서 기업의 성과에 공헌한다는 것을 실증하여 보고자 하였다. 실증분석결과 기업의 정보기술 활용능력은 정보공유활동과 사회자본에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있으며, 사회자본이 기업간 협업활동에 영향을 미쳐 기업성과를 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 자원기반관점에서 기업간 협력을 촉진하는 정보기술 활용능력과 사회자본이 기업간 관계 유지와 기업의 성과에 크게 공헌하고 있으며, 기업의 중요한 무형의 자산으로써 경쟁력의 원천이 되고 있음을 의미 한다고 할 수 있다.

Intelligence of collaborative environments starts from a trial to provide optimal services to with users based on real-time information about participants and environments of the collaboration itself. Up to now, we can collect information such as temperature, light, time, each participant's gestures, faces, voices, and locations by adopting ubiquitous computing technologies. However, since social relationship is intrinsic to collaborative activities, the relationships and roles among participants should be fully considered to provide optimal services. To do so, we have to integrate collected data from various sensors and extracted data about relationships and roles among participants as unified one context. Thus, this paper designs collaborative services filtered, by using the integrated data as a context, and introduces an implemented example, context-aware based interactive display service, called as smart meeting system (SMeet system).

According to analysis of the effectiveness of digital textbooks for the last three years, it was turned out that student's ICT ability is the most effective factor, Also, that is the basic ability required to use digital textbooks. Therefore, in this paper, the effects of ICT ability on various factors were analyzed. For this purpose, after the level of learner's ICT ability was divided into upper, middle, and lower, and the effects of each level on social competency(communication ability, collaboration ability) were analyzed. As a result, It turned out that student's ICT ability has a close correlation with social competency(communication ability, collaboration ability), and has a significant effect on that. In particular, the group with lower level of ICT ability had the greatest influence on social competency(communication ability, collaboration ability), and the group with upper level had the greatest influence on that in score improvement. Therefore, this paper suggests that various types of ICT literacy education are needed to use effective digital textbooks.

Collaborative filtering has been widely utilized in recommender systems as typical algorithm for outstanding performance. Since it depends on item rating history structurally, The more sparse rating matrix is, the lower its recommendation accuracy is, and sometimes it is totally useless. Variety of hybrid approaches have tried to combine collaborative filtering and content-based method for improving the sparsity issue in rating matrix. In this study, a new method is suggested for the same purpose, but with different perspective, it deals with no-match situation in person-person similarity evaluation. This method is called the transitive similarity model because it is based on relation graph of people, and it compares recommendation accuracy by applying to Movielens open dataset.

The collaboration is becoming ever more widespread in scientific research. Unlike collaboration in other areas such as in a company, research collaboration has an unique feature that it is reflected by scholars' characteristics. Based on previous studies on research collaboration, five major factors are identified. We propose five hypotheses from them and examine these by using both in-person questionnaire survey and relational bibliometric analysis. The survey analysis informs individual choice factors and the bibliometric analysis informs collective consequence factors. The results of this study may have implications for science policies and digital collaboration services.

사회적 소프트웨어인 블로그(Blog) 사용이 급증함에 따라 기업 내에서 블로그를 활용하는 기업들이 늘어나고 있다. 기업에서 블로그가 외부적으로는 고객 관계, 광고, 판매 촉진 또는 파트너와의 커뮤니케이션이나 협력의 도구로 사용되고, 내부적으로는 협업, 지식 관리, 공동체 개발 등의 도구로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구는 기업들이 내부적으로 블로그를 사용함에 있어 기술적 수용에 미치는 영향에 관하여 조사하였다. 연구 모형은 기술수용모델(Technology Acceptance Model; TAM)을 근간으로 모델을 설정 하였다. 데이터 수집은 설문지 방식으로 기업 블로그를 도입한 국내 주요 기업을 대상으로 실시하였다.
