Abstract

This study attempts to investigate effects of service conveniences on perceived value and customer voluntary behavioral intention in family restaurants. We categorized service conveniences in five dimensions (i.e, decision, access, transaction, benefit, and post-benefit). We considered perceived value as having three parts, namely functional, emotional, and social. We also specified three segments of customer voluntary behavioral intention as participation, cooperation, and loyalty. The results showed that service conveniences such as transaction convenience, post-benefit convenience, and benefit convenience have an influence on functional value as a perceived value, but no effect from decision convenience and acceptability[this is a new variable to me]. In addition, access and benefit conveniences affect social value. When it comes to the effects of perceived value on customer voluntary behavioral intention, social value was found to affect participation and loyalty, while functional value appeared to influence cooperation.

본 연구의 주요 목적은 외식업계의 경쟁력 강화를 위해 고객이 이용한 패밀리레스토랑의 서비스를 5가지 서비스편의성 요인에 의한 지각된 가치와 자발적 행동의도에 미치는 영향요인을 규명하는데 의의가 있다. 본 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 문헌적 연구와 실증적 연구를 병행하였으며, 세분화된 마케팅 방향을 설정하는데 유용한 정보를 제공하며, 향후 레스토랑 고객 접점에서의 서비스 개선 방안을 모색하고, 동시에 효과적인 발전 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 먼저 선행연구의 검토를 서비스편의성과 레스토랑을 이용한 고객의 지각된 가치 및 자발적 행동의도에 대한 폭넓은 견해를 제시하였으며, 이러한 선행연구를 토대로 패밀리레스토랑 이용 시 고객들이 인지하는 서비스편의성 요인을 확인하는 가운데 본 연구를 위한 전반적인 틀을 제공하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 패밀리레스토랑에 관련하여 보다 심층적이고 실증적인 연구를 통해 패밀리레스토랑의 서비스편의성이 지각된 가치와 자발적 행동의도와의 관계에 대한 연구를 진행하여, 방안모색을 통하여 국내 외식산업의 지속적인 성장과 발전에 기여하고자 한다.
