This study contributes to the existing literature by empirically exploring the causes of child labor in the Indonesian labor market. Factors identified include rate of poverty, average wages, education participation, and quality of education. This study utilized an aggregate data of 301 districts and cities across 34 provinces sourced from the National Labor Force Survey and the National School/Madrasah Accreditation Board of the Republic of Indonesia. Using a multiple regression analysis, the study found strong evidence of the positive effect of poverty on child labor. Conversely, the study documented the adverse impact of average wages on child labor in Indonesia. Similarly, the participation in the education system also contributed negatively to the child labor. Finally, the quality of education services is found to have a negative effect on child labor in Indonesia. The findings of this study suggest that, in efforts to reduce the involvement of children in the workforce, the poverty eradication program should be enhanced. The wages should be continuously improved, at least, in par with the changes in prices. Finally, the quality of education and its services ought to be further enhanced to attract more child student participation rates across junior high schools nationwide.

The crowdsourcing system relies heavily on the number of crowd participation on the platform to ensure the platform's success. However, exploring factors that motivate the crowds to sustain on the platform remains unclear, and very little literature was found on this matter. Lately, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected the world, including Malaysia. Due to the pandemic, many people have lost their jobs, and hence, most of them have shifted to digital work. Hence, to understand the motivation for continuous participation on the online crowdsourcing platform among low-income crowd workers (B40) in Malaysia, this paper explores the intrinsic and extrinsic motivations for continuous participation. A qualitative method interview was performed where 14 active participants of Upwork.com, under the GLOW program, took part during the data collection process. This paper used the thematic analysis method to extract the data collected from this study. The finding of this study identified eight intrinsic motivation factors: (1) personal development, (2) pastime, (3) fun, (4) passion, (5) task identity, (6) time-workplace flexibility, (7) altruistic, and (8) peers' success and four extrinsic factors: (1) monetary, (2) job security, (3) personal commitment, and (4) environment.

Demographics, personality traits and attitudes are related to safety behaviors in varied workplaces, but their roles in nuclear power plants (NPPs) have not been fully understood. This study was conducted to explore the roles of a set of demographic, personality and attitudinal factors on self-reported safety behaviors (including safety participation and human errors) among NPP commissioning workers. Survey data were collected from 157 Chinese commissioning workers. Results showed that age and work experience were significantly associated with human errors, but not with safety participation. Neuroticism and conscientiousness were significantly related to human errors, while neuroticism, conscientiousness and agreeableness were significantly related to safety participation. Attitude towards questioning was observed as an antecedent of safety participation, and functioned as a mediating variable in the relation between conscientiousness and safety behaviors. The findings provide evidence-based implications on the design of diverse interventions and strategies for the promotion of safety behaviors in NPPs.

방송법 제1장 제3조(시청자의 권익보호)에 의거하여, 시청자는 방송프로그램의 기획·편성 또는 제작에 관한 의사결정에 참여할 수 있어야 한다. 공영방송 KBS는 이를 위해 '시청자 평가 프로그램'과 시청자가 직접 기획·제작한 방송프로그램을 방영해주는 '시청자 참여 프로그램' 등 두 가지 제도를 운영하고 있다. 이 연구는 KBS <열린채널>에 방영된 시청자 참여 프로그램의 내용을 분석함으로써 KBS가 국민이 자신의 생각과 사상, 의견, 아이디어를 자유롭게 표현할 수 있는 개방적인 공적 플랫폼으로서 기능할 수 있도록 몇 가지 개선 방안을 제시하였다.

급변하는 환경 속에서 지속적인 경쟁우위와 혁신을 위한 지식의 중요성이 증대되면서, 그 동안 지식공유에 관한 많은 연구들이 있었다. 그런데, 이러한 연구들의 대부분이 응답자의 인지오차가 내재된 서베이에 의존해왔다. 본 연구는 대표적인 온라인 지식협업 커뮤니티인 위키피디아 유저들의 온라인 행위만을 토대로 지식공유 참여정도에 대한 행위 특성들간의 관계를 도출하였다. 그런데, 유저들의 편집 참여 패턴이 서로 다르기 때문에 편집횟수는 같아도 재방문기간은 달라질 수 있고 이에 따라 지식공유 결과가 달라질 수 있으므로, 지식공유 참여정도를 아티클 편집 참여횟수와 재방문기간의 두 가지 관점에서 접근하였다. 지식공유 참여정도에 영향을 미치는 행위특성으로는 위키 플랫폼에서 관찰이 가능한, 공적인 토론툴인 아티클 톡과 사적인 메시징 툴인 유저 톡 참여여부 및 정도, 그리고 커뮤니티 등록여부를 사용하였다. 행위 분석은 먼저, 행위특성 차원에 의한 유저 카테고리별 참여정도를 비교하였고, 행위 특성의 정도를 반영하는 독립변수들과 참여정도를 나타내는 종속변수간의 관계에 대한 로버스트 회귀분석을 수행하였다. 특히, 연구가설을 설정하는 단계에서 온라인 환경에 적합한 모티베이션 이론을 도입함으로써, 온라인 지식공유 참여정도에 관한 이론적인 설명 모델을 제시하였다. 결론적으로, 본 연구는 이론적인 시사점 외에 다음과 같은 실제적인 행위 결과를 얻었다. 첫째, 공적인 토론 및 사적인 메시징 참여와 지식공유 참여정도간에는 양의 관계가 성립한다. 둘째, 공적인 토론이 사적인 메시징 보다 지식공유 참여정도에 더 큰 영향력을 미친다. 셋째, 아티클 편집 참여횟수에 대해서는 공적인 토론과 사적인 메시징의 시너지 효과가 존재하는 반면에, 재방문기간에 대해서는 아주 약한 음의 상호작용효과를 나타낸다. 넷째, 커뮤니티 등록 여부는 재방문기간에 대해서는 절대적인 양의 영향력을 미치지만, 실질적인 편집 참여횟수에 대해서는 유의한 영향력을 나타내지 않는다. 다섯째, 사적인 메시징에 의한 관계성을 고려할 때, 관계의 범위보다는 빈도 또는 깊이가 더 중요한 것으로 보인다.

This study presents an exploratory investigation of SMEs in Vietnam to understand the impact of personal-level factors on middle managers' work motivation and the moderating role of work environment. A survey of 450 middle managers (MMs) in 150 Hanoi's SMEs was conducted. The findings of this research showed a significant positive impact of Achievement (ACHV), Recognition (RECOG), and Responsibility (RESP) on work motivation of MMs under the investigation. Furthermore, the result indicated that the work environment affects the relationship between personal-level factors and work motivation of participants. Consequently, both work environment improvement and strategies related to personal-level factors need to be taken into consideration. Especially, Recognition and transparency in Responsibility are appreciated in organizations with a low level of work environment satisfaction. However, there were no indications that Participation (PAR) and Communication (CMM) have a considerable impact on work motivation of respondents, being neither low level nor high level of work environment satisfaction. Based on the findings, recommendations are suggested for Vietnam's SMEs to improve work motivation of MMs, by (i) developing standards with emphasis on their achievement, (ii) paying attention to organizational culture focusing on the responsibility of this managerial level, and (iii) building an adequate incentive system, especially non-financial incentives.

The purpose of this research was to analyze the market-labor participation of married women and their demand for an additional child, The theories from 'Economics of Fertility' by Willis and Bekerian 'Household Production Model' were applied to develop the theoretical model. For the empirical analysis National Data for Fetility in Korea was used, Even though the model was fully developed based on economic theories only the pasychological or value-related variables were appeared to be statistically significant. That means in Korea the decision-making for market work and fertility are still following the traditional way as it is.

이 연구는 자원봉사활동 참여자들을 대상으로 향후에도 지속적으로 자원봉사활동에 참여할 태도에 영향을 미치는 변인과 영향력을 구명하고자 하였다. 문헌고찰 및 선행연구를 참고하여 독립변수로 개인특성변인, 참여관련변인, 관리과정변인 등 융복합적 요인으로 구성하였으며, 종속변수은 지속적 참여의 두 가지 차원인 지속적 참여의사, 참여강도의 두 가지 차원으로로 구성하였다. 이 연구를 통해 자원봉사활동 참여를 활성화하고 지속적인 참여를 이끌어 내기 위해 다음과 같은 방안을 도출하였다. 첫째, 높은 자원봉사에 대한 행동의사를 나타내고 있는 주부들에 대한 자원봉사활동 기회를 제공하는 홍보방안이나 프로그램개발이 필요하다. 둘째, 자원봉사활동을 주관하는 기관에서는 월평균 참여횟수가 3회이상, 1회 활동시간이 3시간 이상으로 활동 프로그램을 구성할 필요가 있다. 셋째, 자원봉사활동 참여자들이 자원봉사활동이 지역사회의 발전과 공동체 발전의 원동력임과 자신의 발전을 위해서도 매우 의미있는 활동임을 다양한 방법을 통해 인식시키도록 노력해야 할 것이다. 넷째, 자원봉사활동 주관 단체는 활동 참가자에 대한 다양한 차원의 노력들을 점검하고, 부족한 부분을 개선해 나갈 수 있도록 노력해야 할 것이다.
