This research examines the effect of the relatedness and the gap between Resources and mechanisms on effectiveness of inter-organizational knowledge transfer. According to the literature, there has been a competing theory between two claims; one is that inter-organizational knowledge transfer will be more effective due to the reduction of the transaction cost as the relatedness increases. And the other is that the mutual complementarity of different organizational characteristics will increase synergy. In total, the relatedness and the gap of the Resource and mechanism makes the inverted U-shaped relationship with the inter-organizational knowledge transfer. As the result of empirical analysis about 109 Korean-based Joint Ventures entered country, it shows that the relatedness of parent company's production Resources, learning mechanisms, and coordination mechanisms made the inverted U-shaped relations with the inter-organizational knowledge transfer and the gap of production Resources and adjustment mechanism formed the same relationship. However, the U-shaped relationship has been established in the relatedness of market Resources, but the gap of market Resources and the learning mechanism was not statistically significant. Through this study, I can draw a best conclusion that the inter-organizational knowledge transfer will be more effective when the relatedness and the gap of management resources and mechanisms is in optimal level. However, when it comes to market Resources, it can be inferred that the result could be the opposite because the partner country's market environment would be different.

This study was conducted as an explorative effort to know significant variables on creativity. Particularly, with interest in individuality-relatedness and well-being, it is investigated that how those affect creativity of the youth. For this, a questionnaire measuring integrative creativity, individuality-relatedness and integrative well-being is given to 836 middle and high school students in Seoul and investigate relationship among variables. The results show higher individuality, relatedness and well-being tend to induce higher creativity. Each of individuality, relatedness and creativity has different influences on creativity. Over the whole creativity, explanation gets higher in order of individuality, well-being and relatedness. When creativity and well-being are classified into a sub-category, creative motivation has a high explanation in order of individuality, psychological well-being and relatedness. And creative attitude has a high explanation in order of individuality, relatedness and psychological well-being. About creative ability, all the predictors are explained in order of individuality, psychological well-being, relatedness, emotional well-being and social well-being.

This paper proposes an approach using taxonomic relatedness for answer-type recognition and type coercion in a question-answering system. We introduce a question analysis method for a lexical answer type (LAT) and semantic answer type (SAT) and describe the construction of a taxonomy linking them. We also analyze the effectiveness of type coercion based on the taxonomic relatedness of both ATs. Compared with the rule-based approach of IBM's Watson, our LAT detector, which combines rule-based and machine-learning approaches, achieves an 11.04% recall improvement without a sharp decline in precision. Our SAT classifier with a relatedness-based validation method achieves a precision of 73.55%. For type coercion using the taxonomic relatedness between both ATs and answer candidates, we construct an answer-type taxonomy that has a semantic relationship between the two ATs. In this paper, we introduce how to link heterogeneous lexical knowledge bases. We propose three strategies for type coercion based on the relatedness between the two ATs and answer candidates in this taxonomy. Finally, we demonstrate that this combination of individual type coercion creates a synergistic effect.

This study investigated the relations between gratitude disposition and the ego-integrity of elderly men and women, focused on generativity and relatedness toward spouse, children, and friends as well as examined gender differences for each path. The subjects were 341 Korean elderly men and women over the age of 60 living in the Busan, Daegu, and Gyeongsang areas. Collected data were analyzed by PASW ver. 18.0 and AMOS 20.0 programs; in addition, frequency, Cronbach ${\alpha}$, Pearson's correlation coefficients, t-test and structural equation modeling were also used for data analysis. The results were as follows. First, the Korean elderly's gratitude disposition had a positive influence on ego-integrity and generativity as well as on relatedness toward spouse, children, and friends. In addition, the relatedness toward spouse, children, and friends of Korean elderly had direct influences on generativity and indirect influences on ego-integrity by mediating generativity. Second, it showed that there was a gender difference in the structural model that explained the relations among the variables. Korean elderly men's relatedness toward spouse, children, and friends had direct effects on generativity. However, in case of Korean elderly women, only relatedness toward children and friends had effects on generativity. The results were discussed in terms of elderly education.

According to the development of new Information Technologies, firms consistently invest a significant amount of money in IT activities, such as establishing internal and external information systems. However, several anti-Information activities-such as hacking, leakage of information and system destruction-are also rapidly increasing, thus many firms are exposed to direct and indirect threats. Therefore, firms try to establish information security systems and manage these systems more effectively via an enterprise perspective. However, stakeholders or some managers have negative opinions about information security systems. Therefore, in this research, we study the relationship between multibusiness firms' performance and information security systems. Information security indicates physical and logical correspondence of information system department against threats and disaster. Studies on information security systems suggested frameworks such as IT Governance Cube and COBIT Framework to identify information security systems. Thus, this study define that information security systems is a controlled system on enterprise IT process and resource on IT Governance perspective rather than independent domain of IT. Thus, Information Security Systems should be understood as a subordinate concept of IT and business processes. In addition, this study incorporates information capability to information security system literature to show the positive relationship between Information Security Systems and Corporate Performance. The concept of information capability suggested that an interaction of human, information, technical and an effect on corporate performance using three types of capability (IT Practice, Information Management Practice, Information Behaviors and Values). Information capability is about firms' capability to manage IT infrastructure and information as well as individual employees who use IT infrastructure and information. Thus, this study uses information capability as a mediating variable for the relationship between information security systems and firms' performance. To investigate the relationship between Information Security Systems and multibusiness firms' performance, this study extends the IT relatedness concept into Information Security Systems. IT relatedness provides understanding of how corporations cope with conflicts between headquarters and business units to create a synergy effect and achieve high performance using IT resources. Based on the previous literature, this study develops the IT Security Relatedness model. IT Security Relatedness is our main independent variable, while Information Capability and Information Security Performance are mediating variables. To control for the common method bias, we collect each multibusiness firm's financial performance and use it as our dependent variable. We find that Information Security Systems influence Information Capability and Information Security Performance positively, and these two variables consequently influence Corporate Performance positively. In addition, this result indirectly shows that corporations under a multibusiness environment can obtain synergy effects using the integrated Information Security Systems. This positive impact of Information Security Systems on multibusiness firms' performance has an important implication to various stakeholders. Therefore, multibusiness firms need to establish Information Security Systems to achieve better financial performance.

Randomly chosen recombinant clones of Fusarium oxysporum were analysed to select useful probes for relatedness analysis of Fusarium oxysporum. Genomic DNA of F. oxysproum f. sp. cubense, digested with HindIII, was ligated to pUC118 and used to transform Escherichia coli strai DH5$\alpha$. Three clones were identified that hybridized to mutiple restriction fragments of some formae speciales of F. oxysporum. These probes detected repetitive sequences in HindIII or EcoRI digested DNAs. Repeated copy clone pFC46, pFC52 and pFC54 showed evident polymorphisms among ten formae speciales of this fungus. Since clone pFC 52 strongly hybridized to multiple EcoRI-digested restriction fragments of f. sp. cubense, it may be useful as a probe for analysis of other genetic characteristics of this forma specialis. The results suggest that our clones might be very useful as probes for relatedness analysis between or within formae speciales of Fusarium oxysporum.

Entity linking is to link entity's name mentions occurring in text to corresponding entities within knowledge bases. Since the same entity mention may refer to different entities according to their context, entity linking needs to deal with entity disambiguation. Most recent works on entity disambiguation focus on semantic relatedness between entities and attempt to integrate semantic relatedness with entity prior probabilities and term co-occurrence. To the best of my knowledge, however, it is hard to find studies that analyze and present the pure effects of semantic relatedness on entity disambiguation. From the experimentation on Korean Wikipedia data set, this article empirically evaluates entity disambiguation approaches using semantic relatedness in terms of the following aspects: (1) the difference among semantic relatedness measures such as NGD, PMI, Jaccard, Dice, Simpson, (2) the influence of ambiguities in co-occurring entity mentions' set, and (3) the difference between individual and collective disambiguation approaches.

For the medical approaches of work-related musculoskeletal diseases, it is important to consider occupational relatedness and occupational fitness. Clinical approach includes physical examination, radiologic tests and other related tests and we should choose proper management which is suitable to workers' status for the prevention of early disease's progression and later disabilities. Also, it suggests that occupational prevention program consultation for work-related musculoskeletal diseases considering workers' variable circumstances should be done via occupational relatedness and occupational fitness.
