Abstract

Recently various types of college with different schooling years, different methods of providing education service and so forth, appeared whereas students as their customers also have various traits. This study aims to verify the brand personality congruity difference among college types as well as analyse the effect of congruity on trust, satisfaction, and loyalty. The study undertakes the following researches with five brand personality scale(BPS) which presented in the previous research. First research was rather exploratory to clarify the difference in the personality congruity between college-student according to different types of college. As result, 4-year university was highly congruent in competence, sophistication, and ruggedness, while 2-year college was highly congruent in sincerity and cyber university was high in excitement. The second part of the research analysed the effects of personality congruity on trust, satisfaction, and brand loyalty. Results support that brand personality congruity significantly affects trust, satisfaction, and brand loyalty.

최근 수업연한, 교육서비스제공방식 등에 의해 다양한 유형의 대학들이 나타나고 있으며, 소비자인 학생들의 특성 역시 점차 다양해지고 있다. 본 연구는 대학유형별로 학생-대학간 브랜드 퍼스낼리티 일치성차이가 나타나는지 검증하고, 일치성이 신뢰, 만족, 충성도에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 하였다. 기존 연구에서 제시된 5가지의 브랜드 퍼스낼리티 척도(Brand Personality Scale: BPS)를 활용하여 다음과 같은 두 가지 연구를 진행하였다. 첫 번째 연구는 대학유형에 따라 학생-대학간 퍼스낼리티 일치성에 차이가 존재하는지 밝히는 탐색적 성격의 연구이며, 연구결과 일반대학은 능력(competence), 세련(sophistication), 강인(ruggedness)측면에서, 전문대학은 성실(sincerity)측면에서, 사이버대학은 열정(excitement)측면에서 각각 학생-대학간 퍼스낼리티 일치성이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 두 번째 연구는 학생-대학간 퍼스낼리티 일치성이 신뢰, 만족, 브랜드충성도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 브랜드 퍼스낼리티 일치성은 신뢰, 만족, 브랜드 충성도에 모두 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.
