The current study aims to investigate the relationship between CSRD and firm performance, as an indicator for corporate socially responsible behavior, and corporate market performance of listed companies on the Amman stock exchange (ASE). The study adopts a quantitative methodology and utilizes pooled data sets that was collected following content analysis approach of the annual reports for the period 2014 to 2019. The study sample consists of 42 listed companies. The study ran a multiple regression model in order to capture the relationship between the independent variable CSRD and the dependent variable that is Firm performance which was measured using Tobin's Q. The study also utilized five control variables in order to control the hypothesized relationship between CSRD and Firm Performance. The results indicate a negative but significant relationship between CSRD and corporate market performance measured by Tobin's Q. The results stand against the notion of the business case for CSR, and indicate the opposite position, so, the higher CSRD, the lower will be Tobin's Q. Such results support the notion of the institutional theory, and provide an initial evidence for legitimacy seeking behavior in Jordanian companies. However, the results indicate a lower level of awareness of CSR across investors and market players, which support arguments of the difference in market perceptions towards CSR.

With the types and targets of cyber attacks expanding and with personal information leaks increasing, the quantitative demand for information security specialists has increased. The base for training the workforce has expanded accordingly, but joblessness and job-seeking still coexist. To resolve the gap between labor demand and supply, education and training systems that can supply demand quickly are needed. It takes a considerable amount of time for information security education and new manpower supply through universities and graduate schools to be reflected in the market. However, if information security retraining is carried out in terms of career development of information security and related workforce, the problem of lack of experts could be solved in a relatively short period. This paper investigates and analyzes the information security work of the information security workforce, the degree of skill level, the need for retraining, and the workplace migration experience; it also discusses the direction of career development retraining.

본 연구의 목적은 미국과 일본을 타깃시장으로 선정하여 건강관심도에 따른 인구 통계학적 분석과 식품선택 동기를 파악함으로써 소비자 니즈를 반영하여 마케팅 전략 구축의 기초자료로 활용될 수 있으며 향후 해당 국가의 소비자들의 건강하고 올바른 식품 선택에 도움이 되고자 하였다. 미국 115명, 일본 120명의 현지 소비자들을 대상으로 수집된 자료를 SPSS (ver. 25.0) 통계 프로그램을 이용하여 분석을 진행하였다. 전체 소비자의 군집별 미국과 일본 소비자를 대상으로 진행한 건강관심도에 따른 인구 통계학적 분석과 식품선택 동기에 관한 연구 결과는 다음과 같다. 건강관심도에 따라 '건강한 식습관 지향 집단', '영양 균형 지향 집단', '건강 무관심 집단'으로 군집을 나누었으며, 건강관심도에 따른 인구통계학적 분석은 국가, 성별, 연령, 교육 수준의 항목에서 유의적인 차이를 나타냈다. 건강관심도 집단별 식품선택 동기의 결과로는 건강 무관심 집단은 다른 집단과 비교했을 때 건강, 효율성, 가치, 기분 4가지 요인 모두 상대적으로 낮게 조사되었으며, 군집에 따라 점수의 차이는 있지만 세 집단 모두 자신이 투자한 시간에 대비하여 맛이나 조리시간 등의 효율성을 중요하게 생각하는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 전 세계적으로 생활양식이 변화하면서 식품선택 동기가 변화하고 있음을 반영하는 것으로 소비자들이 식품 소비에 있어 투자한 시간이나 자산대비 더 높은 만족감을 얻고자 함을 알 수 있다. 본 연구 결과는 미국과 일본 소비자의 건강하고 올바른 식품 선택을 기반으로 하는 해당 국가의 외식시장 진입전략의 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이며, 소비자의 니즈가 반영된 제품개발 방향을 제시하여 미국과 일본 소비자의 건강하고 올바른 식품 선택에 기여할 수 있으리라 판단된다.
