Abstract

Consumer innovativeness is a force that leads to innovative behavior of consumer and it is crucial for companies to understand the innovativeness in association with the new innovative product adoption. The purpose of this paper is to examines the influence of Consumer's inherent innovativeness, product involvement, and product expertise on consumers's vicarious and adoptive innovativeness. For this purpose, the model has been set and examined the influence of consumer innovativeness, product involvement and product expertise on vicarious and adoptive innovativeness. The results revealed that 1) consumer innovativeness would not influence vicarious and adoptive innovativeness, 2) vicarious innovativeness had affect on adoptive innovativeness 3) product involvement had a affect on both vicarious and adoptive innovativeness 4) product expertise had a affect on vicarious innovativeness and yet had no affect on adoptive innovativeness.

소비자 혁신성은 소비자의 혁신적 행동을 유발하는 성향으로서 기업입장에서는 소비자들의 신제품 수용과 관련된 혁신성에 대한 연구는 필수적이다. 본 연구의 목적은 소비자의 제품에 대한 관여도와 제품에 대한 전문지식이 소비자의 실제화된 혁신성 중 해당 제품에 대한 정보탐색 혁신성과 수용혁신성에 미치는 영향을 탐색하는데 목적을 두고 있다. 이를 위해서 소비자의 내재적 혁신성과 제품에 대한 관여도 및 전문적 지식이 수용혁신성과 정보탐색 혁신성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하는 연구모델을 설정하고 이를 실증 분석하였다. 분석 결과는 첫째, 내재적 혁신성은 정보탐색 혁신성과 수용혁신성에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 정보탐색 혁신성은 수용혁신성에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 제품관여도는 정보탐색 혁신성과 수용혁신성에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 제품관련 전문성은 정보탐색 혁신성에는 영향을 미치는 반면 수용혁신성에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.
