  • Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to discuss success factors behind ATO distribution channels by examining successful partnerships between producers and alternative trading organizations (ATOs). Research design, data, and methodology - This is a case study, an analytical approach, which illustrates how the partnership between producers and ATOs has strengthened the fair trade and the performance of participants in the trade based on the example of the trading relationship between Beautiful Coffee, an alternative trading organization dealing coffee related products, and the coffee cooperative union (CCU), a coffee producing cooperative in Gulmi, Nepal. Results - Beautiful Coffee in the partnership with HELVETAS empowered small coffee farmers by a successful institutionalization of CCU that consolidated the distribution channel to be more efficient. Also, Beautiful Coffee and its partnership with KOICA have tried to increase productivity and quality of coffee beans. Conclusions - The case of Beautiful Coffee demonstrates that the partnership between producers and alternative trading organizations (ATOs) has benefited the fair trade partners. In other words, Beautiful Coffee's partnerships with a NGO working in the local producing area, HELVETAS, and a government aid agency, KOICA could strengthen the relationship between the producers and the ATO, and thus contributes to the whole distribution channel.

  • Purpose: This study was done to develop and test a scale to measure the partnership between pediatric nurses and hospitalized children's parents. Methods: Instrument development process included construct identification based on concept analysis using the hybrid model of Shuwartz-Barcott and Kim (2000), a process which generated 42 initial items. This number was reduced to 35 items through content validity tests by 5 experts and face validity tests by 5 pediatric nurses and 5 parents of hospitalized children. The preliminary Pediatric Nurse Parent Partnership Scale (PNPPS) was administered to 186 pediatric nurses and 163 parents at eleven children's wards in four hospitals. Data were analyzed using item analysis, factor analysis, Pearson correlation coefficients, and Cronbach's alpha. Results: Thirty-four items were selected for the final scale. Seven factors evolved from the factor analysis, which explained 68.4% of the total variance. The internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha, was .96 and reliability of the subscales ranged from .66 to .93. Conclusion: The PNPPS demonstrated acceptable validity and reliability. It can be used to assess the partnership of pediatric nurses and parents in practice and research.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate relationships among partnership variables and sourcing performance. Partnership variables were included as: contract conditions, information sharing, communication, conflict, job understanding, monitoring, culture understanding, trust and commitment. Sourcing performance included perceived benefits and sourcing satisfaction. The survey research design was employed with the structured questionnaire. A sample of 104 Korean apparel firms' managers participated in this survey. Apparel firms selected for this study were casual, sports, children's wear firms doing actively international sourcing. For the data analysis, descriptive statistics (i.e., frequency, percent), factor analysis, correlation, and multiple regression analysis were used. Information sharing and job understanding were positively related with trust. That is to say, the better information sharing and the better job understanding apparel firms had higher scores of trust than others. Contract conditions, communication, conflict, and culture understanding were known as predictions of commitment to international outsourcing. The more trust firms had with their vendors, the more commitment the firms had in the international sourcing. This result showed that trust is the essential factor of commitment. Trust and commitment were significantly related with outsourcing performance (i.e., perceived benefits, satisfaction of the international sourcing). Partnership information of international sourcing assembled in the review of literature and the results from this empirical study may assist the domestic apparel firms to make better decision in the adoption process of international sourcing.

  • Purpose: This study aimed to examine the influence of self-efficacy, emotional intelligence, and nurse-parent partnership on the nursing competency of pediatric nurses. Methods: This study recruited 114 pediatric nurses working in one tertiary general hospital and two general hospitals in the city. Data were collected using self-reported questionnaires from August 26 to September 16, 2019, and were analyzed using the statistical package IBM SPSS 22.0. Results: Statistically significant correlations were found between self-efficacy, emotional intelligence, nurse-parent partnership, and nursing competency. The nursing competency of these nurses was affected by significant predictors such as emotional intelligence, nurse-parent partnership, work duration in pediatrics, and self-efficacy. These variables explained 60.6% of nursing competency of pediatric nurses. Conclusion: To improve the nursing competency of pediatric nurses, we should develop an intervention that can enhance the nurses' emotional intelligence, self-efficacy, and nurse-parent partnership. Furthermore, greater consideration of nursing careers is needed.

  • Purpose: In this study self-efficacy, emotional labor, pediatric nurse-parent partnership and job stress of pediatric nurses were examined. Factors affecting job stress of pediatric nurses were also investigated. Methods: The study was done between June and September 2014, with a convenience sample of 145 nurses from 3 advanced general hospitals, 5 general hospitals and 2 children's hospitals. Research data were collected via questionnaires and analysed using SPSS version 18.0. Results: Average levels of self-efficacy, emotional labor and job stress were similar to other general nurses and the average level of pediatric nurse-parent partnership was also similar to other pediatric nurses. Job stress of pediatric nurses showed a positive correlation with emotional labor and negative correlations with self-efficacy and pediatric nurse-parent partnership. The most significant factor affecting job stress in pediatric nurses was emotional labor (${\beta}=0.372$, p<.001). The combination of emotional labor, pediatric nurse-parent partnership and self-efficacy accounted for 25.4% of job stress in pediatric nurses. Conclusion: These results suggest that nursing management strategies to decrease emotional labor and improve pediatric nurse-parent partnerships and self-efficacy are critical to decrease job stress for pediatric nurses. Continued development of nursing management interventions to decrease job stress in pediatric nurses is suggested.

  • Objectives: As collaboration for community health promotion is much emphasized, the concept and process of community collaboration for health needs to be discussed. This paper discusses varying types of collaboration and collaboration building processes and suggests directions for enhancing community collaboration research and practice. Methods: Leading literature on community partnership building and community health development and current community partnership research program information were reviewed. Results: Although the term collaboration is used interchangeably with cooperation, partnership, network, or coalition, conceptual differences need to be acknowledged in order to develop and reinforce the processes of collaboration. Collaboration building goes in hand with community-based participatory research and systems thinking, which should be supported by long-term, systematic planning and evaluation research. Conclusion: Collaboration for community health promotion needs to be defined and agreed conceptually, thus collaboration process can be developed. Effective collaboration building will be facilitated by systematic thinking and participatory research. Research support system should appreciate the time-intensive, process-oriented nature of collaboration building by providing long-term research funding and emphasizing process and long-term evaluation.

  • 인도네시아의 산림 파트너십 제도는 지방 산림관리소(KPH)를 포함한 허가 권리 보유자와 지역주민 간 계약체결을 통해 산림을 관리하고 수익을 배분하는 제도이다. 본 논문의 목적은 산림 파트너십 제도를 도입한 초기에 인도네시아의 롬복 산림 파트너십에 참여한 지역주민의 인식을 바탕으로 본 제도가 직면한 도전 과제를 도출하는 데 있다. 이런 목적을 달성하기 위하여 산림관리소(KPH)와 지역주민이 체결한 인도네시아 최초의 롬복 산림 파트너십에 참여한 지역주민의 인식을 조사하였다. 롬복의 지역주민은 산림 파트너십에 대한 정보를 전적으로 KPH와 NGO로부터 획득하고 있다. 롬복의 지역주민은 소득 증진을 기대하고 산림 파트너십에 참여하였으며 목재 생산을 가장 중요하고 성공 가능성이 높은 소득증진 사업으로 인식하였다. 이런 측면에서 관할 지역의 특별산림을 지역주민이 이용할 수 있도록 허가해 주고 이로부터 발생하는 수익을 지역주민과 나누고자 하는 KPH의 리더십은 산림 파트너십 성공의 핵심 요소이다. 또한 지역주민의 소득 증진 사업을 개발하고 이행할 수 있도록 KPH의 능력을 배양하는 것은 산림 파트너십이 당면한 도전 과제이다. 롬복 산림 파트너십에 참여한 지역주민은 수익배분 비율이 매우 높음에도 불구하고 만족도는 평균에 그쳤다. 또한 조합은 조합원에게 산림 면적 및 위치를 할당하는 민감한 사안을 다루어야 한다. 이런 측면에서 지역주민 조합이 형평성과 투명성의 원칙을 지키며 전 조합원의 참여와 합의를 이끌어내는 것은 산림 파트너십의 도전 과제가 될 것이다.

  • We categorize partnership types between network operators and a global video streaming or over-the-top service provider, Netflix from 2011 to the first quarter 2018. The options are based on the integration of over-the-top (OTT), Netflix with pay TV and telecommunication operators in the form of carrier billing, access to over-the-top (OTT) via devices or the development of their tariff plans. Options of the Type 3, 'cooperation' or the Type 4, 'agreement' entails a kind of the technical involvement between two partners and commercial agreement. The types of partnership are evolving from one to others. Some partnerships have characteristics of more than one type. The majority of technical or service integration cooperation of Type 3 entail bundling and marketing promotion of Type 2 and Type 1. Similarly, the 'agreement' of Type 4, co-branded or white-label service initiative entail tariff or device user interface (UI) integration of the 'cooperation' of Type 3 and joint marketing initiatives of Type 1.
