This study investigates the work-family interactions of married men, the variables affecting these interactions, and the differences between the variables affecting work-family conflict and those affecting work-family enhancement. The subjects of this study were 1,249 married men. The major findings are as follows. First, married men perceived moderate levels of work-family conflict and work-family enhancement both from work to family and from family to work. Second, the level of work-family conflict was higher than that of family-work conflict, and the level of family-work enhancement was higher than that of work-family enhancement. Third, work-family conflict was influenced by external occupational rewards, the relative importance of work and family life, a family-friendly work environment, perceived working hours, and spousal support. The variables that have an effect on work-family enhancement are perceived working hours, a family-friendly work environment, the relative importance of work and family life, and spousal support. Fourth, family-work conflict is influenced by age, spousal support, perceived family-work enhancement are spousal support, seeking internal and external occupational rewards, the relative importance of work and family life, and a family-friendly work environment.

This study examined the effect of interparental conflict and parent-child conflict on overt aggression in upper elementary school students and investigates if children's father-child conflict or mother-child conflict mediated the effect of interparental conflict on overt aggression. The participants of this study were 532 of fifth to sixth graders from three elementary schools located in Seoul and Gyeong-gi province. Participants were asked to respond to a written questionnaire to measure research variables of the Peer Conflict Scale, the Conflict Tactics Scales, and the Conflict Behavior Questionnaire. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics and hierarchical multiple regression. Mediating effects were examined using analysis procedures of Baron and Kenny. The major findings were as follows: first, the level of interparental conflict and parent-child conflict of both mothers and fathers in upper elementary school students increased the level of overt aggression. Second, parent-child conflict of both mothers and fathers in upper elementary school students partially mediated the relation between interparental conflict and overt aggression. Higher levels of interparental conflict resulted in higher levels of parent-child conflict, and the subsequently higher frequency of overt aggression in upper elementary school students.

There has been a conflict over the use of private forest in Mt. Jiri National Park among the stakeholders. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to define each stakeholders' recognition difference about value and conflict of Mt. Jiri National Park and find the possibility of creating agreement point for solving conflict. For the purpose, the study performs factor analysis on the value of national park and conflict factor and abbreviates them to 4 factors respectively. The study classifies and compares the recognition difference among the stakeholders with t-test and Duncan multiple comparison. The result of this study is that village residents, Korea Forest Service and local autonomy share the same recognition about the value of national park but National Park has different recognition. Regarding the conflict, National Park, Korea Forest Service and local autonomy share the same recognition but village residents have different recognition. Regarding the organization of conference as a direction to solve conflict and its reason, all of the stakeholders share the same recognition. It is necessary to adopt clear standard for the use of forest and apply the different execution of regulation to each area.

Assuring integrity of permission assignment (PA) constraints is a difficult task in role-based access control (RBAC) because of the large number of constraints, users, roles and permissions in a large enterprise environment. We provide solutions for this problem using the conflict concept. This paper introduces the conflict model in order to understand the conflicts easily and to detect conflicts effectively. The conflict model is classified as a permission-permission model and a role-permission model. This paper defines two type conflicts using the conflict model. The first type is an inter-PA-constraints (IPAC) conflict that takes place between PA constraints. The other type is a PA-PAC conflict that takes place between a PA and a PA constraint (PAC) Also, the conditions of conflict occurrence are formally specified and proved. We can assure integrity on permission assignment by checking conflicts before PA and PA constraints are applied.

This study purpose to find out how the relationship characteristics between travel agencies and airlines affect the conflict. As a result of analysis, competition, specialty, uncertainty of environment, frequency of contact and cooperation from the airline's answers have an effect on conflict while variability of environment, similarity, frequency of contact and specialty from the travel agency's answers are affected. In terms of relationship characteristics and conflict between airlines and travel agencies, competition, similarity, frequency of contact and difference of perception and communication difficulty are affected. The relationship characteristics from the result of this study makes a contribution in reducing conflict and improving positive relationship between airlines and travel agencies.
