In this paper, we investigate the determinant factors of performance of global standardization experts in their standardization activities. Standards experts of various nationalities were surveyed to assess incentives that may positively influence the performance of standards professionals. As a basis for this study, we make three main assumptions. First, incentives can be important determinant factors of performance among standards experts. Second, standardization is in the public interest, insofar as the efficiency gains resulting from standardization benefit society as a whole. Third, based on this assumption that standardization is in the public interest, we propose that performance determinants for standardization activities tend to be non-monetary in nature rather than monetary. We find that, in order to improve performance among international standards experts, a better understanding of their aspirations and needs must be gained so that appropriate incentives may be proposed to them. Our analysis reveals that the two most important determinant factors of performance are the recognition of the professional status of international standards experts, and an environment providing support systems to help them perform to their fullest potential.

This paper empirically investigates potential factors that might affect firms' incentives to license out technology. The analysis is done with the help of a panel data set of observed licensing transactions involving U.S. public companies in high-technology industries. The important explanatory factors relate to the firm characteristics such as the company's stock of technological knowledge (patent stock). prior involvement in technology licensing. the company size, R&D intensity and capital expenditure. The results suggest that there seems to be significant inter-sectoral differences as well as similarities in determinants of the propensity to transfer technology through licensing agreements.

세계 주요 허브항만이 되기 위한 각국의 치열한 항만 물동량 싸움에서 한국이 동북아시아 및 글로벌 물류 중심기지로 발돋움하기 위해 현실적이며 효율적인 정책 필요성이 강력히 요구된다. 본 연구의 목적은 동북아시아 물류 중심기지화를 위한 우리나라 항만들의 경쟁력 확보정책의 일환인 항만 인센티브 제도를 비교·분석하고 이를 이용자가 느끼는 서비스품질의 중요도와 성취도를 비교 분석함으로써 항만의 경쟁력제고를 위한 항만지원방안을 모색하고자 하는데 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우리나라 항만의 인센티브제도 개선방향에 대해 연구 및 이용자 및 전문가를 대상으로 한 설문을 바탕으로 IPA분석을 실시해 보았다. 결과적으로 신규 기항선사 및 수출화주, 수입화주에 대한 인센티브 지급과 합리적인 인센티브 부여 기준마련에 대한 요인은 유지 관리해야 한다고 나타났다. 인센티브 청구절차의 간소화, 전산화, 터미널 운영사 인센티브 및 기존 인센티브외 부가적 인센티브 부여는 개선대상영역으로 나타났으며, 이는 정책을 결정하는 기관에서 제도개선을 위한 의견수렴과 이용자들의 관심을 높이도록 고려해야 할 것이다. 중점개선 영역 요인은 기존기항 선사에 대한 인센티브 제공이며, 이는 기존기항 선사들에 대한 인센티브 제공기준을 재검토하여 좀 더 체계적이며 효율적인 정책으로 적극적인 관리가 필요하다고 볼 수 있다.

This study explores factors to facilitate web-based collaborative learning and the effect of learning, based on the PBL(Problem Based Learning) from the constructivist approach in e-learning. A research model, using the key variables such as situations, interactions, and systems, was developed. In order to test this proposed model, experimental design and post-survey was conducted to the learners who took on-line and off-line course with team project. In the research model, situation category was divided into instructor's support, unstructured problem, and self-directed learning. Interaction category was divided into three factors; 'interaction between learners', 'interaction between learner and instructor', and 'interaction between learner and technology'. System category was divided into.monitoring and incentives. As a result, it was found that collaborative learning can be improved by situations, interactions, and systems, and the effectiveness of learning can be improved by situations and interactions in PBL.

The purpose of this paper is to identify factors that influence knowledge sharing and determine the attitudes of quantity surveyors towards knowledge sharing based on the factors. The analysis was based on an online questionnaire survey of Registered Quantity Surveyors from Selangor and Kuala Lumpur. Individualism and collectivism were identified as two major factors that influence attitude towards knowledge sharing. Indicators of individualism include individual attitude, competitiveness, care, incentives and rewards; while the indicators of collectivism are trust, social behaviors and motivation. The findings show that the level of attitudes towards knowledge sharing among quantity surveyors is generally high under enabling organizational environment. However, this is a cautious conclusion as the valid sample on which the analysis is based is relatively small. Willingness to share was found to be highest when incentives and rewards are involved as well as when there is a knowledge management system to promote continuous learning and sharing of knowledge.

We investigate the impact of marital status on the levels of satisfaction of online shoppers in the beauty and cosmetics industry in Vietnam. We find a significant difference in satisfaction between married and divorced/separated online shoppers. More specifically, the latter reveals higher level of satisfaction than the former. Extended analyses further show that this finding is only observed for female online shoppers whilst it is insignificant for their male counterparts. Moreover, we find significant differences in determinants of customer satisfaction between three different groups of online shoppers: single, married, and divorced/separated. While married individuals' satisfaction is affected by all factors (Online shopping experience; Seller Services; External Incentives; Security/Privacy), that of their divorced/separated peers are influenced by only seller services and external incentives. Also, single participants are satisfied with their online shopping driven by their online shopping experience and external incentives. Our findings contribute to the stream of customer satisfaction literature, and to the studies in beauty and cosmetics sector as well as online shopping trends in Vietnam. They contain implications for existing online businesses and new or potential market entrants as to which customer demographic factors have significant influences in terms of customer psychology, behaviour and their satisfaction.
