It is important that individuals use infusion of smart grid-related technology to its full potential in their life, from the perspectives of individuals as well as firms and society. Firms can expand the market of their products and services, and create new wealth and jobs; infusion of smart grid-related technology promotes a sustainable society. The present study empirically analyzes the process of diffusing the smart grid-related technology by using data collected from participants in a Jeju smart grid testbed or a carbon-free island project in Jeju, South Korea. Ten hypotheses regarding the relationships between awareness of smart grid-related technology; the coping process, including appraisal and adaptive acts; and infusion are tested. Policy implications are suggested.

We aimed to verify the factor model and measurement invariance of the abbreviated Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale by conducting a confirmatory factor analysis using data from 761 parents of individuals with intellectual disabilities who completed the scale as part of the 2011 Survey on the Actual Conditions of Individuals with Developmental Disabilities, South Korea, and 7,301 participants from the general population who completed the scale as part of the 2011 Welfare Panel Study and Survey by the Ministry of Health and Welfare, South Korea. We used fit indices to assess data reliability and Amos 22.0 for data analysis. According to the results, the 4-factor model had an appropriate fit to the data and the regression coefficients were significant. However, the chi-square difference test result was nonsignificant; therefore, the metric invariance model was the most appropriate measurement invariance model for the data. Implications of the findings are discussed.

SummaryFactors affecting desired family size in rural Bangladesh are examined using data from contraceptive prevalence surveys conducted between 1983 and 1991. The analysis suggests that mothers having two sons and one daughter are more inclined to perceive their family as complete than those having three sons and no daughter. Logistic regression analysis indicates that important determinants of desire for more children are age of woman, current contraceptive use status, work status, and family planning worker's visit. The policy implications of these findings are discussed.

The importance of factors affecting commuter bicyclists’ route choices was evaluated. Both route-level (e.g., travel time) and link-level (e.g., pavement quality) factors are examined. Empirical models are estimated using data from a stated preference survey conducted via the Internet. The models indicate that, for commuter bicyclists, travel time is the most important factor in choosing a route. Presence of a bicycle facility (especially a bike lane or separate path), the level of automobile traffic, pavement or riding surface quality, and presence of a bicycle facility on a bridge are also very important determinants. Furthermore, there are policy implications of these results for bicycle facility planning.

This paper aims to addresses the impact of corruption, anti-corruption commission, and government intervention on bank’s risk-taking using banks in Asian Countries such as  Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and South of Korea during the period 1995-2016. This paper uses corruption variable, bank-specific variables, macroeconomic variables, dummy variables and interaction variable to estimate bank’s risk-taking variable. Using data from 76 banks in Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and South Korea over 21 years, this research finds consistent evidence that higher level of corruption and government intervention in crisis-situation will increase the risk-taking behaviour of banks. In the other hand, bank risk-taking behaviour minimized by the existence of anti-corruption commission. In addition, this paper also finds that government intervention amplifies corruption’s effect on bank’s risk-taking behaviour because of strong signs of moral hazard and weaknesses in the governance and supervision.

This study is aimed at obtaining a description of the various habituation activities carried out to form the character of students that are relevant to Permendikbud Number 23 of 2015 concerning Cultivation of Character. The research approach used is qualitative with the type of phenomenological research. Data were collected by interview, observation and documentation then analyzed using data analysis techniques Miles and Huberman's model. The results showed that there are seven strategies in implementing character education based on Permendikbud Number 23 of 2015. First, cultivating moral and spiritual values through habituation. Second, developing national values and diversity through habituation. Third, develop positive interactions between students and teachers and parents through habituation. Fourth, developing positive interactions between students through habituation. Fifth, taking care of yourself and the school environment through habituation. Sixth, develop the full potential of students through habituation. Seventh, the involvement of parents and the community in schools through habituation. The seven strategy activities have been implemented optimally because each of the objectives in them can be achieved.

Drawing on concepts of institutional work, legitimacy, and institutional logics, we investigate why countercultural markets experience institutional change and the actions institutional work market actors perform to inform institutional logics and ensure the legitimacy of countercultural markets. Although previous research suggests market changes and disruption, little attention has been paid to markets that originate from different institutional backgrounds, changes in the market experience in relation to its legitimization, and institutional work to attain legitimacy. The case of indie music in South Korea illustrates the evolution of a cultural market from the introduction of its ethos, the crisis caused by legitimacy pressures, and the transformation of the market. Using data gathered through in-depth interviews with indie labels and music consumers in South Korea, and archival sources, our research illuminates the source of market struggle and theorizes approaches that market actors perform to overcome the struggle.

This case uses IRS SOI migration data to help students understand the power of data analysis to identify potential policy issues faced by state governments. The data skills covered in this case are used by entry level accounting professionals in all fields: the Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) process using Alteryx and creating data visualizations using Tableau. The case learning objectives are: (1) Develop students' ETL skills; (2) Develop students' data visualization skills; (3) Develop student's critical thinking skills, and (4) Enhance students' effective oral and written communications skills. Pre- and post-learning assessment surveys and open-ended responses indicate that the case meets these learning objectives. Students easily related to policy questions surrounding migration as future employees considering their career options. As such, this case is appropriate for stand-alone data analytics courses in business or accounting, accounting information systems courses, undergraduate and graduate level tax classes, and MBA courses.
