Characteristics of technology transfer in business ventures: the case of Daejeon, Korea

This article explores the characteristics of venture business and entrepreneurs in Korea to (1) identify technology transfer activities, (2) analyze the differences between technology transfer in linear and nonlinear venture businesses, and (3) guide more effective venture business policy and strategy. This empirical assessment reveals that entrepreneurs have insightful evaluations about their resources and capacities as well as expectations with regard to functions and features of science parks and incubators. Respondents from “linear model”-based start-ups tend to be older and have higher education, employ more basic research and development (R&D) and have more R&D-oriented careers, and have more varied work experience than “nonlinear”-based start-ups. The functions and features of science parks and incubators were generally not considered a critical influence on start-ups nor on the growth of venture businesses. Accordingly, alternative venture-nurturing strategies are discussed as being key to accelerate venture businesses growth.     

Lags and Leads in Life Satisfaction in Korea: When Gender Matters

Using detailed longitudinal data from the Korean Labor and Income Panel Study (KLIPS) from 1998 to 2008, this paper finds significant gender differences in impacts as well as adaptation patterns to major life and labor market events in Korea. Men remain on a higher happiness level throughout marriage, while women return to their baseline happiness within only two years. Consequently, men suffer more from divorce and the death of a spouse. This marital gender happiness gap is equivalent to a (husband only) increase of annual per capita household income of approximately US$17,800. The study further finds that men suffer more from unemployment. Results are robust to the inclusion of multiple simultaneous events and the use of different estimators.     

中小型企业管理信息系统开发中存在的问题及对策研究

随着信息时代的发展,建设适合自己的MIS是推进企业信息化的主要方式。本文阐述了目前我国中小型企业在MIS的引入阶段、开发阶段、应用阶段存在的共性问题,并针对不同阶段出现的不同问题,提出解决对策。中小型企业在引用、开发和应用MIS过程中能否有效地规避这些问题,对MIS的成败起着举足轻重的作用,也对企业能否真正实现内部管理的提升具有重要影响。     

反思性教学——ESP教师自我发展的有效途径

为适应社会发展的需求,我国高校应大力发展专门用途英语(ESP)教学,而其中首要的问题是ESP教师质量问题。开展反思教学研究是ESP教师的自我发展的有效途径。实施反思性教学的教师需借助课堂观摩、课程报告、教学日记、行动研究、问卷调查等方法探讨与解决自身教学问题,不断提高教学实践的合理性。

Intra‐firm differentiation of compensation systems: evidence from US high‐technology firms

While scholars have long recognised the influence of firm decisions on aspects of compensation (e.g. pay level and pay mix), prior compensation studies offer an ambiguous understanding regarding their scope. Some studies argue that firms customise compensation decisions according to employee groups, whereas others assume that firm compensation decisions apply uniformly throughout a firm. To address this research gap, the current study analyses pay levels and pay mixes for R&D employees and administrative employees in US high‐technology firms. Our empirical analyses show that firms make distinct compensation decisions for these two job families, but these decisions are ultimately consistent. These findings highlight firms' intention to strike a balance between customising compensation systems according to employee groups and maintaining internal consistency. Our findings add interesting insights to the strategic HRM and talent management literatures, which claim that firms should differentiate among employees when designing HRM systems.

有毒有害食品事件屡次发生的原因分析

人民群众餐桌安全、生命健康安全是维护社会稳定的头等大事之一,关乎群众切身利益、群众反映强烈的有毒有害食品已引起政府和全社会的高度重视。本文针对若干有毒有害食品事件进行分析,结果表明导致这类事件屡次发生的原因主要有:①政府和相关职能部门的管理和监督缺乏力度,至今还没有建立完全可靠的食品安全控制体系。②一些商家经营的规范和诚信责任不强,一些员工职业道德缺失和食品安全知识匮乏。③消费者维护食品安全意识薄弱。只有政府相关职能部门切实实施有效管理和监督,食品企业切实履行经营规范、诚信责任和员工职业道德教育及食品安全知识的培训,所有消费者切实提高认识和识别能力来维护食品安全,只有这样才能使人们的饮食健康能够得到保障。     

金融排斥对中国县域经济影响研究:实现路径与动态特征

文章基于2006-2010年2 578个县(市)的大样本数据,从区域角度对我国金融排斥状况进行了全景式考察,分析了金融排斥对当地经济的影响效应及实现路径.研究发现:(1)东部地区金融排斥呈下降趋势,中西部则呈上升趋势,金融资源使用效用性的非均衡发展是导致东部与中西部地区差距扩大的主要原因;(2)金融排斥对县域经济具有显著的负向影响,但金融排斥并非随当地经济增长而必然减少;(3)我国金融排斥逐渐呈现出由"设施缺乏指向"转为"机制缺乏指向"、由"个体特征指向"转为"区域禀赋指向"以及农业产业链前端受金融排斥加重三大特征.文章不仅提供了来自大样本的"中国证据",而且为决策部门综合动态把握金融排斥情况,更有针对性地制定相关政策提供了可靠参考.     

城市环境库兹涅茨曲线的实证分析——以北京为例

环境问题伴随着社会经济活动而产生,并随着社会经济的发展而发展,环境问题与经济发展、人口增长之间关系密切.本文依据2000-2010年北京市经济、人口和环境污染物排放量的统计数据,运用环境库兹涅茨曲线的理论模型,分析环境污染与经济发展、人口增长之间的关系.结果表明:自2000年以来,北京市经济快速发展、人口数量不断增长,但环境污染物排放量却持续下降,这主要与北京市的产业结构、环境保护政策、环境保护投资和环境宣传教育等因素相关;环境污染与经济发展、人口增长关系的数学模型可表述为E=β0Y-Y2.同时,为北京市进一步促进经济、人口、环境的和谐发展提出了一系列相关政策建议
