This study will examine the relationship between social support from the work and family domains, referred to as multiple social network ties (MSNT), and employees' job and family-related performance outcomes during the COVID-19 crisis. The study also demonstrates the importance of employees' work-family balance (WFB) in moderating the association between MSNT and job and family-related performance. A two-wave design was used to collect data from 320 managerial level personnel in Pakistan's textile sector. The path analysis technique of structural equation modelling (SEM) was used to analyze the responses. In times of crisis, social support mechanisms could potentially replace organizational support mechanisms for employees dealing with work and family obligations, according to the study. The findings of this study show that work-family balance is a significant partial mediator between MSNT and employees' job and family-related outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a best-fit model. This research supports the pragmatic view of MSNT's action mechanism in generating jobs for employees and family-related results, especially in uncertain situations. According to the findings, employees who have a positive work-life balance are happier and more productive in both work and personal life. It has major implications for human resource management (HRM) research and practice.

본 연구는 한국노인의 사회적 연계망 자체를 좀 더 심도있게 이해하기 위하여 2014년도 노인실태조사자료(65세 이상 10,279명)를 활용하여 관계망 크기, 연계와의 접촉 빈도, 연계에 대한 친밀도를 중심으로 잠재프로파일분석(LPA)을 실시하였다. 그 결과 노인의 사회적 연계망은 고립형(11.6%), 가족의례형(17.7%), 가족친밀형(23.6%), 제한적 다층친밀형(28.4%), 다층형(18.8%)의 다섯 개 유형으로 도출되었다. 또한 도출된 잠재집단 유형별 특징을 비교하였고, 사회적 관계망 유형에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하기 위한 다항로지스틱회귀분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 고립형 노인의 3/4은 여성이며 독거가구 비율이 약 절반을 차지하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 상대적으로 평균연령이 높고, 도시지역에 거주하는 노인, 신체적 제한이 있는 노인, 사회적 지위가 낮은 직종에 종사한 노인이 고립형에 속할 가능성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 반면 다층형의 경우 여성보다는 남성노인이, 연령이 낮을수록, 학력이 높을수록, 전문 관리 사무직에 종사한 노인일수록 다층형에 속할 가능성이 높았다. 한편 가족의례형과 가족친밀형은 배우자 혹은 자녀를 중심으로 연계망이 형성되어 있고, 노인부부가구의 비중이 높다는 공통점을 가지고 있으나, 가족의례형은 상대적으로 여성 비중이 높다는 특징이 있다. 그리고 제한적 다층친밀형은 배우자보다는 자녀와 친구 이웃과의 연계망의 크기, 빈도, 친밀도가 다층형 다음으로 높은 집단으로 여성노인 및 저학력이면서 농림어업에 종사한 비중이 높게 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과에 기초하여 노년기의 사회적 연계망 유형의 다양성이 갖는 학술적 및 정책적 함의와 향후 연구방향을 논의하였다.

본고의 연구는 SNG 서비스의 이용에 있어 사용자간의 약한 유대관계의 힘과 감성적 상호작용이 만족과 구전에 이르는 경로모형을 검증하고, SNS가 지닌 감성적 실명효과가 서비스 확산에 미치는 영향 및 정책적 함의를 확인하고자 하였다, 연구결과 모바일 SNG 사용자의 약한 유대관계의 힘이 사용자간의 감성적 상호작용성과 만족에 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 SNS의 감성적 실명효과로 인해 사용자들은 신뢰관계가 형성되어 약한 유대관계임에도 불구하고 감성적인 상호작용을 하는 것으로 판단된다. 그리고 구전에 영향을 미치는 변인은 선행한 유대관계나 상호작용이 아닌 만족인 것으로 나타났다. 선행변인들이 실명SNS 효과가 있지만 궁극적으로 서비스를 구전하게 하는 것은 만족이라는 요소에 의해 좌우된다는 것이다. 따라서 서비스 제공사업자들은 구전으로 전달되는 서비스의 만족을 이끌어 낼 수 있도록 고객 중심의 정책으로 SNG 서비스를 개선시키는 등의 실무적 제언이 가능 할 것으로 기대된다.

소셜미디어 상에서 소비자로서의 자신을 얼마나 드러낼 것인지의 여부는 자기표현에 따른 긍정적 보상과 부정적 위협 중에서 어느 것에 보다 초점을 맞출지에 따라 달라질 수 있다. 또한 긍정적 보상과 부정적 위협 중에서 어느 것에 보다 초점을 맞추게 될 것인지의 여부는 자신을 드러내고자 하는 관계의 상대방이 누구인지에 따라 달라질 수 있다. 자기표현의 청중을 관계의 유대지향성에 따라 구분한다고 할 때, 직장동료와 같이 업무파트너로서 이해 증진에 목적을 두는 관계 상대방은 도구적 유대지향성의 청중이라고 하는 반면 학창시절 친구와 같이 우정과 같은 감정적 유대를 기반으로 하는 관계 상대방은 표현적 유대지향성의 청중이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구는 직장동료와의 관계에서처럼 도구적 유대지향성이 강한 상대방에 대해서는 자기표현의 실패로 인한 부정적 위협의 여파가 자기표현의 성공으로 인한 긍정적 보상보다 더욱 치명적일 수 있기 때문에 긍정적 보상보다는 부정적 위협의 예방에 초점을 맞춰 수세적으로 자기표현을 하려 든다고 예측하여 보았다. 실증결과는 페이스북 상에서 직장동료들의 비중이 증가할수록 수세적 자기표현에 의한 매개 효과는 증대되는 데 반면, 쟁취적 자기표현에 의한 매개 효과는 감소하고 있음을 확인시켜 주고 있었다.

Objectives: The goal of this paper is to examine the social network effects on post-traumatic sdress disorder (PTSD) in female North Korean immigrants who entered South Korea in 2007. Specifically, it attempts to verify if the density and composition of networks make a difference after controlling for the network size. Methods: A multivariate logistic regression is used to probe the effects of social networks using the North Korean Immigrant Panel data set. Because the data set had only completed its initial survey when this paper was written, the analysis was cross-sectional. Results: The size of the support networks was systematically related to PTSD. Female North Korean immigrants with more supporting ties were less likely to develop PTSD, even after controlling for other risk factors (odds-ratio for one more tie was 0.8). However, once we control for the size of the network, neither the density nor the composition of the networks remains statistically significant. Conclusions: The prevalence of the PTSD among female North Korean immigrants is alarmingly high, and regardless of the characteristics of supporting network members, the size of the supporting networks provides substantial protection. This implies that a simple strategy that focuses on increasing the number of supporting ties will be effective among North Korean immigrants who entered South Korea in recent years.

Communication in delay tolerant networks (DTNs) relies on message transport by mobile nodes, and a correct understanding of the node mobility characteristics is therefore crucial to the design of an efficient DTN routing protocol. However, previous work has mainly focused on uncovering all behaviors of node movement, which is not conducive to accurately detecting the specific movement characteristics of a different node. In this paper, we seek to address this problem based on a consideration of social relationships. We first consider social ties from both static and dynamic perspectives. For a static perspective, in addition to certain accidental events, social relations are considered for a long time granularity and tend to be stable over time. For a dynamic perspective, social relations are analyzed in a relatively short time granularity and are likely to change over time. Based on these perspectives, we adopted different efficient approaches to dividing node pairs into two classes, i.e., familiar and unfamiliar pairs. A threshold approach is used for static social ties whereas a density-based aggregation method is used for dynamic social relationships. Extensive experimental results show that both familiar and unfamiliar node pairs have the same inter-contact time distribution, which closely follows a power-law decay up to a certain point, beyond which it begins to exponentially decay. The results also demonstrate that the inter-contact time distribution of familiar pairs decays faster than that of unfamiliar pairs, whether from a static or dynamic perspective. In addition, we also analyze the reason for the difference between the inter-contact time distributions of both unfamiliar and familiar pairs.

This research empirically examined the determinants of competitive advantages and performance of Korean film industry from 1996 to 2003 over a sample of 396 movies. Especially, the effects of knowledge-based resources, social capital, product differentiation strategy, and market entry strategy on a film performance were hypothesized and empirically tested. Findings of this study are as follows; First, confirming the importance of knowledge-based resources in film industry, both the superior business track records of producers and the superior artistic track records of directors and actors had positive effects on film performance. Second, supporting social capital hypotheses, while the strong ties between directors and producers had positive effects, the strong ties between directors and actors had negative effects on film performance. Third, confirming the importance of product differentiation strategy, genre differentiation against competing films had positive effects on film performance. Finally, confirming the importance of market entry timing, the number of competing films released following a film opening within a week had negative effects on film performance. The findings of this research suggest that producers, directors, and actors are not only the critical knowledge-based resources to create competitive advantages indeed, but the pattern of relationships among them also systematically influences the film performance. Moreover, it is suggested that film performance may be improved by the proper genre differentiation and opening day selection.

The purpose of this study is to investigate Korean youth's motivations for parenthood and concepts of parental role and to examine closely the relationship with the sociodemographic variables(age, sex, religious orientation, growth region, father's occupational level, parental education degree). the subjects are 465 students of the three universities in National Capital region. The data are collected by questionnair methods and analyzed by t-test, F-test, factor analysis. The major findings are as follows: 1) The motivations for parenthood are classified into five factors. These are acquisition of social status factor, continuation of self factor, achevement and creativity factor, tradition factor, primary group ties factor. The korean youth think the most of achievement and creativity factor among five motivation factors. 2) The korean students have somewhat stereo-typed concepts of parental role and place the stress on training the behaviors of the child and encouraging the development of the child. 3) The sociodemographic variables to have relationship with the motivations for parenthood are age, sex, growth region and father and mother's educational degrees. And the variables related with the concepts of parental role are sex, father's occupational level. 4) There are relationships between traditional role concepts of a father and motivation of acquisition of social status factor and tradition factor. And traditional role concepts of a mother are related with motivations of acquisition of social status factor and primary group ties factor among the motivations for parenthood.

The suicide rate in South Korea has been the highest among the OECD countries for more than 10 years. In addition, the suicide rate among the rural elderly is much higher than that of the elderly in urban areas and that of younger generations. The purpose of this study was to examine the general tendencies of family ties, community consciousness and suicide ideation of the rural elderly in Korea. Also, this study aimed to verify the mediating effect of community consciousness between family ties and suicidal ideation. The data for this study came from 283 elderly people (over 65 years old) living in 11 villages in South Korea. The data was gathered from July to August 2013. Baron and Kenny's (1986) step based regression from the SPSS Win 18.0 program was used to analyze this data. This study also utilized the Sobel-test. The results of this study are as follows. First, the suicidal ideation of the respondents had a lower score than the median score. However, the magnitude of suicidal ideation was still significant. Second, this study found that family ties and community consciousness have both direct and indirect effects on the reduction of suicidal ideation. Lastly, this study examined the mediating effects of community consciousness. The findings of this study are of great significance because they reconfirmed the importance of establishing a social safety net in local communities to replace adult children who have relocated to urban areas.
