This study aims to examine curvilinearly moderating effects of task interdependence on the relationship between demographic faultlines and group performance. It posits that the degree of task interdependence has an impact on the effects of demographic faultlines. It was conducted in six organizations in Korea, their industries including heavy industries, hospital, construction, petrochemical, fine chemicals, and system integration. The survey was distributed to 1330 individuals in 162 teams and 1082 individuals in 137 teams responded to the questionnaire. To test the hypotheses including nonlinear interactions, we conducted a hierarchical regression analysis to the survey data from 82 groups within six firms in Korea. The results show that for groups that experience a high level of task interdependence, the slope for the regression of demographic faultlines on group performance is comparatively low and, at the low level of task interdependence, insignificant. However, at intermediate levels of task interdependence, the association was strongly negative and significant. This study finds that the negative relationship between demographic faultlines and group performance is stronger when task interdependence is moderate than when task interdependence is high or low. Therefore, managers should pay attention to optimal group design by carefully assigning tasks in diverse and divided groups.

The purpose of this study was to examine Korean mothers' child rearing beliefs for their infant/toddlers and to compare young mothers' child rearing beliefs with grandmothers'. The subject was composed of 130 pairs of young mothers whose first child is 2 - 2 and half years old and their mothers(grandmothers) in Taegu city area. The major results of findings were as follows : 1. The Korean mothers' Infant/toddler Rearing Beliefs had four subfactors in both area of Interdependence and Independence. 2. Korean young mothers and grandmothers had higher infant/toddler rearing beliefs of interdependence than those of independence. 3. Korean grandmothers had higher infant/toddler rearing beliefs of interdependence than young mothers. 4. Korean young mothers had higher infant/toddler rearing beliefs of independence than grandmothers. 5. While Korean grandmothers had mainly infant/toddler rearing beliefs of interdependence, Korean young mothers had both infant/toddler rearing beliefs of independence and those of interdependence.

상호의존성은 유통경로상에 존재하는 기본적 특성으로서 오랫동안 유통분야에서 관련연구들이 활발하게 진행되어 왔다. 특히 갈등은 유통경로상의 거래관계를 특징짓는 주요 특성으로서 상호의존성과 갈등 간 관계를 규명하는 것은 의미하는 바가 크다. 그러나 사회학 분야에서는 상호의존성과 갈등 간 관계를 설명하는 상반된 이론이 존재하며, 마케팅 분야에서도 상호의존성과 갈등 간 관계에 대해서 상반된 연구결과가 제시되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 상호의존성과 갈등 간 관계에 대해 대립된 설명을 하고 있는 쌍무적 억제이론과 갈등나선형이론 등의 사회학 이론을 활용하여 붙균형적 상호의존성과 갈등간 비선형적 관계를 제안하고, 이를 위해 소방관련 전문공사업체들과 공급업체들로부터 설문데이타를 수집하여 불균형적 상호의존성과 갈등간 역U형태의 관계가 있음을 증명하고자 한다. 분석결과 구매업체집단과 공급업체집단 모두에서 상호의존성의 총합이 높을 때 불균형적 상호의전성과 갈등간 비선형적 관계가 통제적으로 유의미하게 도출되었다. 마지막으로 몇 가지 학문적 시사점들과 한계점 및 향후 연구 과제를 제시하였다.

Even though Sino-American relations of the Donald Trump era were perceived as predominately confrontational, with a symbolic trade war between the two, the scale of economic interdependencies between the United States and China results in either a need for collaboration or in serious losses on both sides in the case of lack of cooperation. The paper aims at analyzing economic relations between the United States of America and the People's Republic of China at the time of the Trump presidency. Analysis is based on the complex interdependence theory of Robert Keohane and Joseph Nye. The main hypothesis analyzed in the paper states: Asymmetric interdependence between the People's Republic of China and the United States of America limits the scope, intensity and length of a trade war. For the sake of the paper, economic interdependence will be analyzed. Apart from the reference to the state of the art, the document analysis and descriptive statistics are to be applied in the paper.

This study tried to examine how interdependence, communication, and the exercise of power in cosmetics distribution channel would affect satisfaction. In this study we investigated the effects of their communication and the exercise of noncoercive power of department store (or mart). We conducted with managers of the shops which were entered to department store (or mart). 131 copies were collected and 119 copies were used for analysis after the exclusion of 12 copies. Brand image and sales policy influenced satisfaction, but customers were not statistically significant. In addition, communication in distribution path had the moderating effect on the relationship between interdependence and satisfaction, and on the relationship between interdependence and noncoercive power. Sales policy and brand image in the relationship between department store(or mart) and the shops opened inside are critical factors for satisfaction, but customers are highly likely to become a factor with different meaning.

본 연구는 후강퉁 제도의 시행 이후에 중국, 홍콩, 대만 및 싱가폴 증권시장 간의 상호의존성이 어떻게 변화되었는지를 수익률과 변동성을 동시에 분석할 수 있는 EGARCH-GED 모형을 이용하여 분석하였다. 후강퉁 제도의 시행 이후 대만 증권시장의 대중화권 증권시장과의 상호의존성은 크게 약화되었으며, 싱가폴 증권시장의 대중화권 증권시장과의 상호의존성은 존재하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 반면에 후강퉁 제도의 시행 이후에 중국과 홍콩 증권시장 간의 상호의존성은 크게 강화된 것으로 나타났다. 이는 후강퉁 제도의 시행에 따라 중국과 홍콩 투자자들이 두 증권시장에 투자할 수 있는 여건이 개선됨에 따른 결과로 추정된다. 따라서 대중화권 증권시장에서의 분산투자를 고려할 때에는 대만과 싱가폴 증권시장의 상호의존성 약화와 중국과 홍콩 증권시장의 상호의존성 강화를 고려하여 분산투자전략을 수립할 필요가 있을 것이다.

This article investigates the geopolitics of the energy transition era, concentrating on China's solar photovoltaic (PV) industry. Authors have noted that the rise of renewables is changing the geopolitical landscape of world energy systems, but these new energy sources carry their own technical characteristics and geopolitical implications. Bearing this in mind, this research answers the questions: What are the structural factors that facilitate China's use of renewable energy to achieve political goals, and what are their implications? In order to analyze the data, I devise an analytical framework based on the energy statecraft literature and contrast rival explanations, particularly the "prosumer theory" and the premise of less geopolitical interdependence in a renewable-centered world. I show that asymmetric interdependence in the solar PV sector is already a reality. China's solar PV industry is a case that suffices all conditions (centrality in industrial capacity, market share, and companies' compliance, but to a lesser extent in critical materials and technological endowments) in the solar PV sector to devise effective strategies aimed at reaping benefits out of its asymmetric interdependence with the rest of the world.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of two-way communication and knowledge sharing on the task performance of employees in the interdependent task structure in organizations. Based on the theories of social interdependence and organizational commitment, this study hypothesized the effects of task interdependency and emotional commitment on two-way communication and knowledge sharing, followed by the effects of these variables on the task performance of employees. Design/methodology/approach Survey results show that task interdependence and emotional commitment have positive effects on the degree of two-way communication and knowledge sharing. Two-way communication also has a positive impact on knowledge sharing, and knowledge sharing also improved the task performance of members. However, the relationship between two-way communication and task performance shows no significant impact. Findings Theoretically, this study is meaningful in that the process of task interdependence in relation to emotional commitment leading to task performance is theorized. In practice, this research suggests it is important to improve employees' two-way communication and knowledge sharing in order to lead to increase task performance in the interdependent task environment.

Command and control networks(C2N) exhibit evident multi-network interdependencies owing to their complex hierarchical associations, interleaved communication links, and dynamic network changes. However, the existing command and control networks do not consider the effects of dependent nodes on the load distribution. Thus, we proposed a command and control networks load allocation strategy based on interdependence strength. First, a new measure of interdependence strength was proposed based on the edge betweenness, which was followed by proposing the inter-layer load allocation strategy based on the interdependence strength. Eventually, the simulation experiments of the aforementioned strategy were designed to analyze the network invulnerability with different initial load capacity parameters, allocation model parameters, and allocation strategies. The simulation indicates that the strategy proposed in this study improved the node survival rate of the interdependent command and control networks model and successfully prevented cascade failures.
