Abstract

Appearance concern of elderly women has been rapidly increasing with the expansion in aesthetic desire for growing old gracefully and pursuing a healthy and qualitative life. In this regard, the cosmetic industry has great possibilities and it is necessary to develop actively elderly women-oriented silver marketing. The purpose of this study was to review well-being disposition and appearance concern of elderly women. Furthermore, this study investigated the influence of well-being disposition and appearance concern on cosmetic purchase intention and brand loyalty. The sample of this research consisted of 209 elderly women over 55, which was selected from Seoul and the metropolitan area. Frequency analysis, factor analysis, the analysis of confidence level and regression analysis were used for the data analysis using SPSS. The study results showed that the factor of well-being disposition for elderly woman can be classified into an environment-oriented factor, an life satisfication factor and a physical health factor. In addition, the factor of appearance concern can be classified into 3 factors: serious consideration of appearance, appearance care and skin care. Among these factors, the physical health factor of well-being disposition and the factor for serious consideration of appearance related to appearance concern had effects on cosmetic purchase intention, which fumed out to be a potent influence on brand loyalty.

질적인 삶을 추구하는 노년 여성이 증가하고, 아름답게 가꾸고 싶어하는 미적 욕구가 커짐에 따라 화장품 산업의 급성장이 예견되고 있다. 이러한 시점에서 본 연구는 노년 여성들의 웰빙 성향과 외모관심도에 대하여 알아보고, 이들 변인이 화장품 구매의도와 브랜드 충성도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 서울 경기도에 거주하는 만 55세 이상의 여성 209명을 대상으로 설문분석을 실시하였고, SPSS를 이용하여 빈도분석, 요인분석, 신뢰도분석, 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 노년 여성의 웰빙 성향은 친환경요인, 생활만족요인, 신체건강요인으로 나뉘어졌고, 외모관심도는 외모중시요인, 외모관리요인, 피부관리요인으로 구분되었다 이들 요인 중 웰빙 성향의 신체건강요인과 외모관심도의 외모중시요인이 노년 여성의 화장품 구매의도에 영향을 미치고, 화장품 구매 의도는 브랜드 충성도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같이, 노년 여성들이 신체건강 및 외모를 중시할수록 화장품 구매의도 및 브랜드 충성도가 높아졌으므로, 이들의 웰빙 성향과 외모관심도는 브랜드 충성도를 유발하는 요인이라 할 수 있다.
