This paper aims to reach the perceptions, ideas and intentions of the higher education adolescences on the effects of technological innovations over interrelation/communication between individuals. While advances in technology commonly works for the welfare and benefit of humankind, paradoxically in some instances could have negative outcomes on interrelations among individuals, minimizing face-to-face communication. The perceptions, so ideas of the individuals on the matter could differ depending on their age, gender, race and the culture beyond their relative intimacy and closeness to ICT tools. In order to penetrate the basic initiatives leading the perceptions of adolescents on the effects of technological improvements on human interrelations/ communication, a survey is conducted with 157 students in high education consisting of Asian, African, Cypriot, Turkish nationals. Results indicate that participants use technological tools for communication which lessens their face-to-face interaction. However they prefer social media more than face-to-face communication during conflict or undesirable situations.

We study whether a default option attached to non-recourse mortgages improves borrowers' surplus from mortgage financing. By defaulting on mortgage debt, borrowers can save their non-collateralized income from being foreclosed. In exchange, borrowers must forgo non-monetary surplus from retaining any collateral. Banks may charge a high mortgage rate due to increased default rates. We find that the interest rate of non-recourse mortgage decreases with the borrower's surplus from home ownership. Moreover, non-recourse mortgages benefit only borrowers who deem housing property as an investment asset. Hence, the transition to a non-recourse mortgage is detrimental to welfare if the borrower enjoys a large surplus from home ownership. Although the borrower privately knows how much surplus she enjoys from home ownership, a menu of non-recourse mortgage contracts may exist, yielding a separating equilibrium without information rent.

The purpose of this study is to identify the influence of ego integrity on death anxiety of the elderly, mediated by depression based on Erikson theory(1963). For this study, 313 elderly over 60 years old in Daegu city participated in a survey. The data of the survey was analyzed using SPSS 15.0 and Structural Equation Modeling(SEM) with AMOS 7.0. The results of the study are as follows: ego integrity of the elderly does not influence death anxiety due to the suppressing effect of depression. However, depression does mediate the relation between ego integrity and death anxiety fully. Such findings suggest that the Erikson theory can also be applied to elderly Korean citizens. A practical benefit derived from the study's results is the proposition to implement a reminiscence program, reinforce depression treatment and prevention systems, and augment a death awareness movement for elderly.

The purpose of this study is to examine support policies regarding work and family reconciliation, to suggest plans to improve workplace policies, and to suggest directions for further studies. This study looks at OECD's work-life reconciliation policies as well as family friendly workplace policies in Korea to find a way to enhance business' receptiveness and implementation of the policies. By examining women's labor conditions, this study finds that family friendly workplace policies are necessarily imminent in our society of low fertility and ageing. Along with the evaluation of benefit level and the effectiveness of current policies, this study uses data from interviews with working mothers who have had the experience of family friendly benefits. The results of the analyses suggest that the government should focus on improving the workplace environment in companies that do not show bias against the use of family friendly policies. In order to farm more successful policies, future studies are needed to analyze the changes of fertility, working conditions, support programs, and benefits.

This paper summarizes recent developments in the field of molecular biology and its application to plant breeding, particularly in rice. Plant breeding in the past mostly depended on the time-consuming crossing of known genomes limited to certain traits. Plant breeding has now benefited from marker-assisted selection and genetic engineering to widen the gene pool, improve plant protection, and increase yield. Future plant breeding will expand based on functional and nutritional genomics, in which gene discovery and high-throughput transformation will accelerate crop design and benefits will accrue to human health, in the form of nutritional food for poor people to reduce malnutrition, or food enriched with antioxidants and with high food value for rich people. Agricultural biotechnology for food is no longer a dream but a reality that will dominate the 21st century for agriculture and human welfare.

While corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been considered an important philanthropic support for nonprofits worldwide, little is known about how perceptions of CSR are associated with actual CSR practices that may benefit nonprofit organizations in different institutional contexts. This study applies stakeholder theory to examine how South Korean firms perceive CSR outcomes, and how these perceptions lead to different CSR practices. We constructed a panel dataset using two waves of the Giving Korea survey of CSR and two additional sources. The results indicate that perceived CSR outcomes may play a critical role in CSR practices: 1) the more financial performance is perceived as an outcome, the more will be donated; 2) the more organizational culture is perceived as an outcome, the greater the engagement in employee volunteering; and 3) the more reputation is perceived as an outcome, the more nonprofit organizations are supported. From the findings, we discuss theoretical implications and provide suggestions for nonprofit organizations.

Since 2013, Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) has introduced big data initiatively in administration and put into practices in transportation, safety, welfare in order to overcome limited resources and conflicting interests. For establishing a new midnight bus service, SMG prepared optimized midnight bus routes by analyzing big data from mobile phone Call Data Record (CDR) through collaboration with a telecommunication company. Despite of limited budget and resources, newly identified routes can cover over 42% of the citizen with 9 routes and less than 1% of buses compare with day time operation. In addition to solve transportation problem, SMG utilizes big data to resolve location selection problem for choosing new facility locations such as life double cropping centers and senior citizen leisure centers. As results, SMG demonstrates big data as a good tool to make policies and to build smarter city by overcome space-time limitation of resources, mediation of conflicts, and maximizes benefit of the citizen.

본 논문에서는 우리 헌법에서 수용하고 있는 적법절차원칙에 비추어, 현행 국민기초생활보장법에서 급여변경 및 중지시 적용되는 절차의 적정성을 고찰한다. 동법에서는 사후적인 이의신청절차만을 명시하고 있으며, 분쟁을 심사하는 심판자의 독립성을 보장하는 장치가 마련되지 않은 한계가 있다. 그 결과 수급자는 행정기관의 일방적인 조치에 의해 급여가 박탈되어 즉각적인 생계위협을 겪고, 구제절차에서도 공정한 심판을 받지 못하는 불이익을 당하기 쉽다. 급여의 변경 및 중지는 수급자의 헌법적 또는 법률적 권리를 제한하는 행정작용으로서 적법절차원칙에 따라 절차의 공정성과 합리성이 요구된다고 본다. 급여 변경 및 중지의 경우 적법절차를 만족하기 위해서는, 이의신청 기회가 해당 조치 시행 전에 마련되어야 하며, 심판자의 독립성이 적절한 수준에서 보장되고, 이 때 수급자가 심판자 앞에서 구두로 의견을 표현할 기회가 제공되는 등 절차적 보호장치가 마련되어야 한다. 이를 위해 행정절차법상의 청문절차를 적용하는 것이 적합하다고 보며, 이에 급여변경 또는 중지시 수급자의 청문에의 기회를 권리로서 보장하도록 국민기초생활보장법을 개정해야 한다고 주장한다.

본고는 산재보험 급여체계 내에서 나타나고 있는 일부급여의 비합리적 과잉급여 현상과 협소한 급여범위와 급여의 미흡성 그리고 제한성 문제는 장기적으로 사회보험의 건전한 체제정립을 저해함은 물론 장기적으로 불공평성으로 인한 수급자의 제도에 대한 왜곡인식과 악용이 늘게되고 가입자의 제도 참여에 대한 불만과 회의적 시각이 누적되어 결국은 제도에 대한 신뢰를 상실시킬 수 있다는 우려에서 연구의 필요성을 인식하였다. 산재보험에 있어서 궁극적인 목적인 급여의 적절성을 보장하기 위하여 급여에 의하여 수급자가 오히려 부를 축적할 수 있는 기회로 왜곡되거나 또는 급여체계의 목적에서 벗어난 적정이상의 소득이 발생되지 않도록 하여야 하는 점도 급여체제의 올바른 기능 수행에 있어서 중요한 과제로 판단하였다. 또한 사회보험제도 내에서 각 급여부분의 보장 수준에 평준화를 통하여 수급권자가 일부 급여에 대하여 집착을 보이지 않도록 하는 급여별 보장 수준의 평준화의 확립도 중요한 제도적 발전의 관건으로 인식하여 급여의 적절성과 평준화를 위한 문제점과 개선방안을 제시하고자 하였다. 다만 무분별한 급여수준의 삭감은 오히려 사회보험 발전에 저해요소로 작용할 위험이 높은 점을 감안하여 급여제도의 함으로 인하여 제도가 목적으로 하지 않는 비합리적인 부분으로서 적정이상의 급여를 제거하고, 오히려 급여부분에서 상대적으로 급여의 협소성과 미흡성으로 지적되는 보장기능에 대한 보완 작업을 통하여 제도 자체의 급여체제에 대한 형평성 및 공평성을 확보할 수 있는 대안을 제시하고자 하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 산재보험 급여체제에 있어서 과잉 또는 중복 지급되는 급여부분을 구체적으로 지적하고 이를 급여에 있어서 미흡한 부분으로 전환 방안을 제시함으로써 제도의 합리성을 확보하고 제도의 건전성을 확보함으로써 산재보험의 장기적인 제도발전에 기여하고자 하였다.
