In this study, a partial proportional odds model was used to find out the fishermen’s participation in the fishing quota management system by fish species and to identify factors that affect fishermen's participation in the system. Based on this, implications for enhancing participation in the fishing quota management system by fish species were examined. As a result of the parallel-line assumption test, it was found that partial proportional odds model estimation was appropriate because the parallel-line assumption was not satisfied in 6 of the 15 variables used in the analysis. In the results of partial proportional odds model estimation and marginal effect analysis, various variables used in the analysis were identified as factors that positively or negatively affect participation in the fishing quota management system for each fish species. Drawing upon these outcomes, this study proposed a plan to enhance the intention of fishermen to participate in the fishing quota management system by fish species.
