A Study on Customer Feedback by VOC Big Data Analysis of for Travel Agencies

VOC(Voice of Customer) is a crucial information for any business in determining its management strategies. Thus, most businesses try to enhance their relationship with customers by collecting VOC via a variety of channels including telephone calls, mails, online and offline surveys. However, a great portion of such feedbacks are in the form of atypical data and hard to analyze by conventional methods. In particular, qualitative answers to open-ended questions in a survey are extremely difficult to analyze. The current paper attempts to propose an effective process of analyzing such qualitative VOC big data by utilizing the Buzz monitoring tool. A process of extracting risk factors from the results of such analysis is also presented by conducting a case study for a major travel agency in Korea. The findings are expected to help the agency deal with the complaints from customers and take corrective measures.

A Review of the Systemic Analysis Method on Dental Sedation for Children

The first priority of sedation for incorporative children in pediatric dentistry is a safety. Therefore, evidence-based practices in health care are needed for preventing medical accidents. In accordance with the rise of the evidence based medicine, the interest in Evidence-Based Dentistry is increasing in the field of dentistry. However, systematic research about Evidence-Based sedation in Korea has rarely been done. As such, the purpose of this systematic review is to critically analyze the available scientific literature regarding sedation and to seek the next developmental strategies about evidence based pediatric sedation. A broad search of the 5 databases of the systematic reviews manual of the National Evidence-based Healthcare Collaborating Agency in Korea were referenced: 1) Core search database- KMbase, KISS; 2) Academic information and portal; 3) the National Assembly Library; 4) DBpia, and 5) RISS. Of a total 470 themes limited to the search term of dental sedation, in accordance with the PRISMA statement for reporting systematic reviews of health sciences interventions, a literature selection process, which includes the removal of overlapping down the flow chart, was performed. Of the remaining 31 articles, two authors read through articles independently and added or removed articles using the exclusion criteria. Finally, twenty published papers of acceptable quality were identified and reviewed. This systemic review of Korean pediatric sedation practices for the last twenty-five years was based on the objective criteria defined in the GRADE process and identified consistent evidence. The results were evidence of moderate quality. Therefore, more systemically well-designed clinical studies are needed about the safe use of a sedative medicines (drugs).

A study on the current status and strategies for improvement of web accessibility compliance of public institutions

The circulation of information through the Internet allows us to promptly and conveniently deliver information. However, it is also causing a simultaneous occurrence of digital information gap and cultural lag phenomena. The gap in the ability to freely access and use Web site contents using the Internet is affecting not only the digital information gap, it also affects the competitiveness of individuals. In Korea, pursuant to Article 21 of the “Act on the Prohibition of the Discrimination against the Disabled and the Relief of their Rights” and Article 14 of its enforcement ordinances enforced from 2008, Web-accessibility compliance for each agency has been gradually made mandatory. Even if a Web-accessibility certification mark has been obtained, some Web sites are involved in legal disputes because of their violation of the Anti-Discrimination Act for the Disabled, which has been recently enforced. This study examines the actual situation of the compliance by conducting web accessibility assessment. 25 websites among the Korean public institutions in the science and technology field were selected and were assessed manually according to KWCAG 2.0. According to experts assessments using web accessibility requirement of KWCAG 2.0, 'Perceivable' shows the highest compliance rate (68 %). 'Operable,' 'understandable,' or 'Robust' shows the compliance rates of 64.5 %, 59.2 %, and 28.0 % respectively. Based on the findings of this study, some suggestions are presented to improve web accessibility compliance of the sites that received a web-accessibility certification mark from the National Information Society Agency in Korea.

Agencification and Performance: The Impact of Autonomy and Result-Control on the Performance of Executive Agencies in Korea

ABSTRACTAgencification, the practice of creating semi-autonomous public bodies based on a contractual relationship with a parent government, has spread across the industrialized and developing world. The main principles of this NPM-based reform are autonomy and result control. This study uses regression analysis with data from forty-four executive agencies in Korea to examine the effect of these factors on organizational performance. The results show that both human resource management autonomy and financial autonomy have statistically significant negative relationships with performance, whereas systems for performance evaluation and rewards for result control are significantly and positively related to the performance of executive agencies in Korea.

실버세대 취업정보사이트의 웹 접근성 준수 현황 분석

본 연구는 유니버설디자인 관점에서 실버세대가 이용하는 취업정보사이트의 평가를 위해 UD-WCAG (Universal Design - Web Content Accessibility Guide) 2013을 새롭게 제시하였으며, 이를 이용하여 중앙정부와 지방정부가 실버세대의 구직과 관련한 일자리 전담수행기관으로 지정한 시니어클럽 중 사회복지법인인 운영하는 전국 13개 시니어클럽을 선정하여 웹 접근성 준수율을 평가하였다. 웹 준수율 현황 조사는 한국정보문화진흥원의 자가진단 도구를 통한 검증과 UD-WCAG 2013를 통해 이루어졌으며, 두 조사결과 지역에 따른 차이는 없는 것으로 나타났으나, 전반적인 준수율은 낮게 평가되었다. UD-WCAG 2013의 7개 대분류에서 오류에 대한 부분에서는 적절한 해결책을 제시하고 있는 것으로 나타났으나, 그 밖의 다른 부분에서는 13개 시니어클럽 전부 실버세대의 사회적, 신체적 특성에 대한 배려가 미흡한 웹사이트를 운영하고 있는 것으로 조사되었다. This study, in the perspective of universal design, newly suggests UD-WCAG 2013 for the evaluation of job information sites used by the silver generation. Using this, 13 senior clubs run by social welfare corporations chosen by the central and local government for the silver generation job information provision organizations to analyze the compliance status of web accessibility. The web compliance status analysis was done through a self-assessment tool from Korea Agency for Digital Opportunity and Promotion and UD-WCAG 2013. Although both analyses showed that there weren't differences according to region, the general level of compliance was shown as low. In the UD-WCAG 2013's 7 major categories the part about errors was shown providing appropriate solutions, but in the other parts it was shown that the all 13 websites were being run with insufficient consideration of the social and physical characteristics of the silver generation.

The Effects of meteorological disasters on the incidence of waterborne and foodborne diseases in Republic of Korea, 2001-2009

background There is a need to quantitatively assess the kinds and damage amounts of infectious diseases increasing after a meteorological disaster and identify the subjects of focused monitoring in order to reduce the negative influences of meteorological disaster on health. aims This study set out to assess effects of all meteorological disasters in Korea from 2001 to 2009 on the waterborne and foodborne diseases. methods The study analyzed all case of floods and typhoons on the Annual Report on Disasters by National Emergency Management Agency in Korea from 2001 to 2009. We compared the pattern of weekly incidence of Vibrio vulnificus septicemia (VVS), shigellosis, typhoid and paratyphoid fever before and after disasters by Poisson regression model. The interaction effects of general characteristics of disaster on relative risk of each disease were analyzed, too. results The number of all case of disasters by administrative unit was 312. Relative risk of incidence of VVS and shigellosis to incidence before disasters was peak at 2.49(95% CI 1.47-4.22) and 3.10(95% CI 1.21~7.92) in second week after disaster, respectively, and continued to drop after that. There is no significant increased risk of typhoid and paratyphoid fever during 4 weeks after disaster. The pattern of incidence of VVS can be changed by type of disaster or average precipitation and that of shigellosis can be influenced by average precipitation only. Conclusions The findings show that the incidence of waterborne and foodborne diseases increased after meteorological disasters. General characteristics of disaster can influence the incidence pattern of diseases after disaster.

환경대기 중 유해성 VOC 측정에 관한 동향과 전망

In this article, we reviewed the monitoring status of hazardous VOC in ambinet air in Korea and some developed countries such as USA, Japan, and UK. In many countries, two types of VOC monitoring stations are being operated, i.e., for hazardous VOC and photochemical VOC. Each country has different target VOC but all includes benzene. Korea, Japan, and UK have a national ambient air quality standard for benzene, but no national standard has been established in the USA. For sampling of the hazardous VOC, the adsorbent method is adopted in Korea and UK, while the canister method is used in the USA. Both of adsorbent and canister methods are used in Japan. USA and UK have only non-automatic method to measure the hazardous VOC, and the individual samples are being sent to their national laboratories for integrated analysis. On the other hand, Korea and Japan have automatic and nonautomatic methods to measure the hazardous VOC. Local governments or regional environmental agencies in Korea and Japan have the authorization for the sampling and analysis of VOC. According to a field study to evaluate the performance of automatic VOC monitoring system, controlling the moisture in the air sample was identified as the most important problem. However, careful attention must be given to using a moisture removing device such as Nafyon dryer, because of unexpected artifacts formation. In order to have reliable data, it is highly recommended not only to use internal standards, but to use appropriate hydrophobic adsorbents as a cold trap in any automatic on-line VOC monitoring system.

한국 스포츠마케팅 에이전시의 비즈니스 전략과 발전과제

본 연구는 스포츠단체의 프로퍼티(property)를 갖고 사업을 하는 스포츠마케팅 전문 회사를 대상으로 이들의 사업 전략 분석을 통해 한국의 스포츠마케팅 에이전시의 비즈니스 성격과 비즈니스 모델의 특징을 규명하고 이러한 특성이 우리나라 스포츠마케팅 에이전시 산업 발전에 어떤 시사점을 주는지 고찰하였다. 스포츠마케팅 에이전시의 비즈니스는 단순히 프로퍼티 권리의 획득이나 대행만이 아니라 권리의 대행을 통해 사업의 기회를 늘리고 파생 상품을 개발하여 이윤을 극대화시키는 능력이 스포츠비즈니스의 핵심 역량임을 나타내고 있다. 한국에서의 스포츠마케팅 사업은 BTL위주의 프로모션 사업을 하는 광고회사와 스포츠콘텐츠 위주로 사업을 하는 스포츠마케팅 에이전시의 이원화된 구조를 보이고 있어 이는 한국 스포츠마케팅 에이전시가 기회와 파생의 극대화 역량을 키우는데 논의해야 할 과제로 남고 있다. This research aims to analyze business strategies of professional sports marketing companies which have properties of sports organizations in Korea, with a view to investigating into the nature of the business of the agencies and the characteristics of business models and to considering what kinds of suggestions such characteristics have for the development of professional sports marketing agencies in Korea. Professional sports marketing agencies do not simply acquire their property rights or act as a proxy in getting the property rights but also multiply opportunities for their business while acting as a proxy and developing extension commodities so as to maximize their profit, which is a core capability of sport businesses. Sports marketing businesses in Korea are characterized by dual structure: advertisement companies specializing in BTL (Below The Line)-centered promotion business, and sports marketing agencies specializing in the business focused on sports contents. This structure serves as an obstruction for Korean sports marketing agencies to build up their capabilities to maximize opportunities and extension.
