The purpose of this study was to set up the proper method of corporal punishment. The analysis was based on game theory. Major conclusion were as follows: First, the principle of maximum utility and a rational humane of students were assumed. Second, in the game situation of imperfect information, the actions deserved punishment were done by students and punishment was not done by teachers. Third, in game situation of incomplete information, when the probability of punishment is over 50%, ill actions were done by students. Forth, in game situation of complete information, the actions deserved punishment were not done by students, punishment didn't have to be done by teachers. Fifth, in game situation of complete information, when the written agreement for punishment of teacher-students was carried out, the student's school life satisfaction measurement was improved significantly.

One of the core issues in the realization of e-government is the effective implementation of a website. The current trend of e-government is developing individual web sites and portals, covering such fields as education, tax, economics, real estate, travel, and health. Evaluating e-government web sites is essential for improving web sites. These principles can be included in usability in a broader concept. Website usability has attracted considerable research on website evaluation and has been regarded as one of the most important criteria for measuring and evaluating websites. Usable e-government web sites make citizens willing to search for helpful information or solve their civil applications. The objective of this paper is to suggest an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method for evaluating e-government web sites. The proposed AHP method has two special characteristics compared to general AHP approaches. First, all citizens who are e-government users can evaluate both the usability criteria and the web sites, but the weighting mechanism differs between criteria and web sites. Secondly, a pairwise comparison is time-consuming and not cost effective with many criteria. Therefore for evaluating a website with respect to a sub-criterion, we develop checklist items as measure scales with a seven-point rating. This method is efficient as it enable us to avoid the pairwise comparison mechanism between sub-criteria. A new computation procedure for the AHP is developed that combines and synthesizes priorities of portals in the case that two decision maker groups are involved.

Crime victims have had features of both causing a crime and the object of protection from the society. These contrasting characteristics have led to develop victimology. As the result, the classification of the victim has been generalized. Direct damage caused by the crime victim is grouped into the first damage, and collateral damages caused by the 1st one are could be identified as the 2nd or the 3rd one. In this paper, it is aimed that problems of victim classification in Korea have been studied by comparing foreign countries' classification.

The purpose of this study is to confirm how perception of user to e-government have an effect on the intention to use. Field research method using questionnaires was employed to investigate the effects between the variables. Findings of the study can be summarized as follows. Perceived information security and usefulness have a positive effect on trust to e-government. And perceived risk have a negative effect on trust. And only perceived usefulness have a positive effect on the intention to use significantly.

The mobile commerce (m-commerce) has very high market value unlike other technology innovation areas in IT industries and also changing rapidly. Therefore, it is fact that the development of the effective business strategy is challenging in a digital convergence era of m-commerce context. In most of the researches, m-commerce has dealt with conceptual study such as establishment of definition. There are not many studies of influence of information valuation evaluation on users' satisfaction have done so far. In this paper, we have reported a theoretical study as well as empirical analysis and examined an influence of information valuation evaluation have on users' satisfaction. A questionnaire was constructed and data were collected from 192 users of m-commerce system.

This study investigates the effect of E-learning service quality toward users' learning satisfactions when moderating by users' study motivations at cyber universities. For this end, the E-learning service quality was measured with SERVQUAL which was widely employed in academic research area. From rich survey analysis, this study finds that the three factors of E-learning service quality such as concreteness, certainty, credibility and sympathy are statistically correlated with users' learning satisfactions, but the responsiveness is not. Also in order to test the hypothesis that the study motivation is a moderate variable, the three step regression analysis was applied. Finally, this research finds that the study motivation has the role of moderate variable to affect the users' learning satisfactions.

Though an internet survey, an alternative method for the off-line survey, has various merits is, it still has some problems such as sampling bias and low reliability from insincerity during survey. Especially the exogenous variables such as sample respondents of the environment should be controlled to make internet survey trustworthy. This study attempts to design and implement such system that can help researchers to control the network and sampling environment and behaviors on respondents. Thru the various Question forms and structured Questionnaire design, this study tries to contribute the improvement of survey satisfaction and the reliability for survey result in internet survey system.

This paper is to understand what effects the introduction of IFRS(International Financial Reporting Standard) will have on legacy AIS(Accounting Information System) and how to minimize the problems of that. In order to meet that purpose, we have to recognize the difference between K-GAAP(Korea-Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) and K-IFRS(Korea-International Financial Reporting Standards) first. And then we try to find out what effects the difference between K-GAAP and K-IFRS will have on the legacy AIS. In order to avoid the disorder When K-IFRS will be introduced to the company, new functions have to be added to existing system in proper manner and some existing functions should be changed correctly according to K-IFRS. And CIO(Chief Information Officer) should have to make a careful decision what is the better solution between in-house development and outsourcing for developing new system.

This paper focuses on the construct of relationship quality and the influence of relationship quality on relationship persistence, willingness to recommend.
