초록

정보기술의 급격한 발전은 새로운 시장환경인 인터넷 쇼핑몰의 증가에 영향을 미쳤다. 인터넷 쇼핑몰은 소비자 관여와 같은 소비자 행동을 변화시켰고, 이에 따라 마케터들은 인터넷 상에서 소비자들이 의류제품을 구매할 때 중요시하는 제품 평가기준 및 점포 평가기준에 관심을 가지게 되었다. 따라서 본 연구는 인터넷 쇼핑몰 이용자의 소비자관여와 인터넷 사용능력에 따라 소비자 집단을 분류하여 인터넷 상에서 각 소비자 집단에 따른 의류제품 및 웹 서비스 평가기준의 차이를 알아보았다. 본 연구의 연구대상은 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서 의류제품 구매경험이 있으며, 수도권에 거주하는 $20\sim30$대 성인남녀로 판단표본 추출하였다. 설문지 방식을 사용해 자료를 수집, 총 305부를 분석에 사용하였으며, 소비자관여와 의류제품 평가기준 및 웹 서비스 평가기준을 측정하기 위한 변수들은 기존 선행연구들에서 조사한 후 본 연구에 맞도록 재구성하였다. 자료의 분석은 요인분석, 일원분산분석, Duncan test를 실시하였다. 인터넷 쇼핑몰 이용자의 소비자집단 유형은 소비자관여와 인터넷 사용능력을 기준으로 네 집단으로 분류하였으며, 쇼핑몰 이용자의 소비자집단에 따른 의류제품 평가기준의 차이를 알아본 결과, 심미적, 품질성능적, 그리고 외재적 기준 모두에서 집단간 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 또한 인터넷 쇼핑몰 소비자집단 유형에 따른 웹 서비스 평가기준의 차이는 신뢰성, 제품관련, 거래 후 만족, 그리고 판촉/정책 기준에서 집단간 유의미한 차이가 나타났다. 의류제품 및 웹 서비스 평가기준 모두에서 고관여고능력 집단과 고관여저능력 집단은 동질집단으로서 다른 집단에 비해 두 평가기준 모두를 중요시하는 것으로 나타났다. 즉 고관여 소비자들은 인터넷 쇼핑 시 발생할 수 있는 여러 가지 위험요소들에 대해 크게 지각하고 있어 평가기준 모두를 중요시하므로, 인터넷 쇼핑몰은 고관여 소비자집단을 만족시킬 수 있는 의류제품을 구비하도록 해야 하며, 그들이 느끼는 위험요소를 찾아 없애는데 주력하여야 할 것이다. 또한 신속 정확한 약속의 이행 등을 통해 쇼핑몰 업체의 이미지를 향상시켜야 할 것이고 거래 후에도 제품의 교환이나 반품 및 환불에 대해서도 끝까지 책임을 짐으로써 고객에게 만족을 주어야 한다.

Rapid development of the information technology has influenced on the changes in every sector of human environments. One prominent change in retail market is an increase of electronic stores, which has prompted practical and research interest in the product and store attributes that include consumer to purchase products from the electronic shopping. Therefore many marketers are paying much attention to the criteria of evaluating clothing and web service on internet shopping malls. The purpose of this study is to examine differences of clothing and web service criteria of consumer groups (High-Involvement & High-Ability, Low-Involvement & High-Ability, High-Involvement & Low-Ability, and Low-Involvement & Low-Ability) who are classified into consumer involvement and internet use ability. The subjects of this study were 305 people aged between 19 and 39s, living in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do area, and having experiences in buying products on the internet shopping. Statistical analyses used for this study were the frequency, percentage, factor analysis, ANOVA and Duncan test. The results of this study were as follows: Regarded on the criteria of evaluating clothing, the low different groups had significant differences in the esthetic, the quality performance and the extrinsic criterion. Both HIHA group and HILA group showed the similar results. They considered every criterion of evaluating clothing more important, compared with other groups. Regarded on the criteria of evaluating web service related to the low different groups, there were significant differences in the factors related to the shopping mall reliance, the product, the satisfaction after purchase, and the promotion and policy criterion. Both HIHA group and HILA group showed the similar results as well. They considered every criterion of evaluating web service more important, compared with other groups. In conclusion, HI groups perceive relatively more dangerous factors which can be occurred during internet shopping. Therefore, internet shopping malls need to provide clothing that can satisfy the HI groups as well as make efforts to remove the dangerous factors on the internet.
