Abstract

This study tested how impulse buying behavior for apparel was related to hedonic consumption and impulse buying tendencies and emotion in the context of shopping. A total of 290 self-administered questionnaires were obtained from college students during scheduled classes. A structural equation model using a correlation matrix with maximum likelihood was estimated for examining the relationships among consumer tendencies of hedonic consumption and impulse buying, positive emotion, and impulse buying behaviors by LISREL 8.53. Findings showed that impulse buying behaviors for apparel could be classified into planned, reminded, and fashion-oriented impulse buying typologies. Hedonic consumption and impulse buying tendencies had significant effects on positive emotion. Positive emotion had a significant effect on planned, reminded, and fashion-oriented impulse buying for apparel. This study suggests that positive emotion plays an important role in determining impulse buying behaviors relevant to hedonic and impulse buying tendencies. Managerial implications for apparel retailers are discussed.

본 연구는 쇼핑과정에서 소비자의 쾌락적 소비성향과 충동적 구매성향 그리고 소비자가 느끼는 긍정적인 감정이 의류제품의 충동구매행동에 미치는 영향에 대하여 살펴보고자 하였다. 미국 남서부지역 대학에 재학 중인 290명의 대학생들에게 선행연구결과로부터 개발한 질문지를 배포하여 자료를 수집하였다. 소비자의 쾌락적 소비성향과 충동적 구매성향, 소비자가 쇼핑과정에서 느끼는 긍정적인 감정, 의류제품 충동구매행동간의 관계를 살펴보기 위하여 상관관계 매트릭스를 이용한 구조방정식 모델을 제안하여 검증하였다. 분석결과, 의류제품의 충동구매행동은 계획적 충동구매, 상기된 충동구매, 패션지향적 충동구매로 유형화되었으며 소비자의 쾌락적 소비성향과 충동적 구매성향은 소비자가 쇼핑과정 중에 느끼는 감정에 영향을 미쳤고 소비자 성향들에 영향을 받은 긍정적인 쇼핑감정은 의류제품의 여러 유형의 충동구매행동에 직접적인 영향을 미쳤다. 즉, 소비자들의 쾌락적 소비성향과 충동적 구매성향은 의류제품 쇼핑과정에서 소비자들이 경험하는 긍정적 감정을 통해 충동구매행동을 유발한다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 의류제품에 관련된 리테일러들에게 제시해 줄 수 있는 마케팅적인 제언들을 논의하였다.
