Authors: Kim Tae Whan , Jung Dong Yul
Published: January 2025

The purpose of this study was to explore Change Expectations on digital employment services and influencing factors for employment center members, and to derive implications for revitalizing digital employment services. To this end, data on 491 employees(20 years of age or older) working at the employment center were collected from October 18 to November 22, 2023, and hierarchical regression analysis was performed. The main results are as follows. First, 491 respondents' change expectations on digital employment services were 3.99 points, which was higher than the average(3 points). Second, age had a significant effect on change expectations on digital employment services. Third, in the case of departments(teams), the model without inputting change management factors had a significant effect on change expectations on digital employment services, but not the input model. Fourth, change expectations on digital employment services had a significant correlation with the factors related to change management. Fifth, change acceptance had a significant positive effect on change expectations on digital employment services Sixth, performance-based organizational culture had a significant positive effect on change expectations on digital employment services. Seventh, among the factors related to change management, job satisfaction and commitment, technical self-efficacy, and leadership did not significantly affect change expectations on digital employment services. Through the above research results, this study suggested reinforcement of change management-related education, support for the spread of change acceptance and performance-oriented organizational culture, and follow-up research on change management at the employment center.
The impact of social class and work volition on decent work and life satisfaction among middle-aged and older re-employed individuals: application of the Psychology of Working Theory
Authors: Lee Eun Sul , Lee A Ra
Published: January 2025

This study aimed to identify the factors affecting decent work and life satisfaction among middle-aged and older re-employed individuals in their 50s or older, based on Psychology of Working Theory(PWT). Specifically, the research model hypothesized the direct impact of perceived social class on work volition, decent work, and life satisfaction and indirect link between these variables. Also, the research model tested whether proactive personality moderates the relations among social class, work volition, decent work, and life satisfaction. To do so, an online survey was conducted with 400 middle-aged and older re-employed individuals, and data was analyzed using structural equation modeling. The analysis revealed that the perceived social class of re-employed individuals had an indirect significant effect on decent work through work volition. Additionally, work volition was found to have a significant direct effect on life satisfaction and an indirect effect through decent work. While the direct path from social class to life satisfaction was significant, the indirect paths through work volition and decent work were also significant. Finally, the moderation effect of proactive personality on the research model was examined. The proactive personality of re-employed individuals did not moderate the influence of social class and work volition on life satisfaction. But it was found that the direct impact of decent work on life satisfaction was significantly higher in the low proactive personality group. These results extend the applicability of PWT in Korean population, highlight the importance of social environmental context in perceptions of decent work and life satisfaction among re-employed individuals, and suggest potential intervention through work volition.
An Exploratory Study for Out-of-School Education from The Perspective of Educational Publicness
Authors: Lee Jeon-Yi , Oh Chun-Shik
Published: January 2025

This study explored the re-conceptualization of out-of-school education from the perspective of educational publicity, aiming to expand the discourse on the public nature of education beyond traditional school settings and examine the differing experiences of out-of-school education among various student groups. The research analyzed educational equality, curriculum universality, and outcome integration by comparing the out-of-school education experiences of school-attending students and non-attending adolescents, and evaluated the implications of expanding educational boundaries beyond schools. Results The study identified the need for new frameworks to support education both inside and outside school, found systematic differences in out-of-school education experiences as public education boundaries extended, and emphasized the necessity of transcending the traditional dichotomy between school and out-of-school education. Conclusions The findings suggest that expanding educational publicity requires breaking away from the conventional separation of school and out-of-school education, and highlight the need for institutional flexibility to facilitate seamless learner transitions between different educational environments.
On (Shape-)Wilf-Equivalence of Certain Sets of (Partially Ordered) Patterns
Authors: Burstein Alexander , Han Tian , Kitaev Sergey , Zhang Philip B.
Published: January 2025

We prove a conjecture of Gao and Kitaev on Wilf-equivalence of sets of patterns $\{12345,12354\}$ and $\{45123,45213\}$ that extends the list of 10 related conjectures proved in the literature in a series of papers. To achieve our goals, we prove generalized versions of shape-Wilf-equivalence results of Backelin, West, and Xin and use a particular result on shape-Wilf-equivalence of monotone patterns. We also derive general results on shape-Wilf-equivalence of certain classes of partially ordered patterns and use their specialization (also appearing in a paper by Bloom and Elizalde) as an essential piece in proving the conjecture. Our results allow us to show (shape-)Wilf-equivalence of large classes of sets of patterns, including 11 out of 12 classes found by Bean et al. in relation to the conjecture.
Maximum Spread of $K_{s,t}$-Minor-Free Graphs
Authors: Linz William , Lu Linyuan , Wang Zhiyu
Published: January 2025

The spread of a graph $G$ is the difference between the largest and smallest eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix of $G$. In this paper, we consider the family of graphs which contain no $K_{s,t}$-minor. We show that for any $t\geq s \geq  2$ and sufficiently large $n$, there is an integer $\xi_{t}$ such that the extremal $n$-vertex $K_{s,t}$-minor-free graph attaining the maximum spread is the graph obtained by joining a graph $L$ on $(s-1)$ vertices to the disjoint union of $\lfloor \frac{2n+\xi_{t}}{3t}\rfloor$ copies of $K_t$ and $n-s+1 - t\lfloor \frac{2n+\xi_t}{3t}\rfloor$ isolated vertices. Furthermore, we give an explicit formula for $\xi_{t}$ and an explicit description for the graph $L$ for $t \geq \frac32(s-3) +\frac{4}{s-1}$.
Spent coffee grounds as a sustainable coffee flavouring ingredient in muffins
Authors: Solberg Sina Breian , Solberg Svein Øivind
Published: January 2025

Aim: United Nations calls for actions to meet future challenges, and industries and governments need to look for new solutions. Coffee is one of the largest industries in the world, and spent coffee grounds (SCG) represents 50% of its waste. Sustainable ways to manage this waste are of interest. Research has shown that SCG is rich in dietary fibres and antioxidants, and we liked to examine if SCG could be used in flavouring muffins. The objectives were to investigate the viability of processing SCG through a comparison of different drying methods, to evaluate how SCG influences properties of baked goods and to investigate consumer acceptance of muffins with SCG.
Methods: Three methods for drying SCG were used: oven drying, freeze drying, and vacuum drying. Muffins were baked with 10% milled and sieved SCG related to flour weight, and a control with 2.5% espresso powder. C-cell-, texture- and moisture analyses were conducted along with a sensory analysis.
Results: The laboratory measurements showed that SCG powders were comparable to the control regarding textural parameters, except for the slice area parameter. The sensory analysis showed no clear difference in bitterness but a difference in graininess and coffee flavour. The least grainy was the control which also had the strongest coffee flavour. The vacuum dried was the grainiest and the freeze dried had the least coffee flavour. Ranking data showed the control in top and the vacuum dried bottom.
Conclusions: SCG has the potential as flavouring coffee muffins but a finetuning in the processing and recipe development is needed to retrieve more coffee flavour without increasing bitterness or graininess.
