초록

본 연구는 청소년기 학생들의 소비행동을 분석하여 교육의 기초자료로 활용하고자 여학생들의 쇼핑성향에 따른 하위요인을 도출하고 이 하위요인에 따른 쇼핑유형을 분류하였다. 이 쇼핑유형의 집단에 따른 청소년 여학생의 의류제품의 윤리적 소비행동 즉 구매, 사용, 처분행동의 차이를 알아보았고, 쇼핑성향의 하위요인이 의류제품의 윤리적 구매, 사용, 처분행동에는 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 살펴보았다. 그 결과 청소년기의 여학생 의류제품의 윤리적 구매, 사용, 처분행동의 경향이 보통보다 낮아 교육이 필요함이 시사되었다. 그리고 쇼핑성향의 하위요인인 충성적 성향, 향유적 성향, 충동적 성향, 모방적 성향, 독립적 성향에 따라 즐거움추구 유형, 중간 유형, 독립추구 유형의 세 쇼핑유형으로 분류되었다. 즐거움추구 쇼핑유형은 상대적으로 의류제품의 윤리적 사용행동을 가장 많이 하였고, 독립추구 쇼핑유형은 윤리적 구매행동과 윤리적 처분행동을 더 많이 하였다. 쇼핑자체를 즐기는 욕구만족의 성향이 낮을수록 혼자서 의사결정을 신중하게 했다고 생각하는 경향이 높을수록, 그리고 구매상표와 점포에 대한 신뢰가 강한 능동적인 성향이 높을수록 의류제품의 윤리적 구매행동을 더 많이 하였다. 반면 욕구만족의 성향과 독립적인 성향을 모두 가진 경우 윤리적 사용행동은 더 많이 하였다. 그리고 혼자서 구매의사결정을 하는 독립적 성향만 높을수록 윤리적 처분행동은 높아졌다. 소비단계와 쇼핑성향에 적합한 세분화된 소비자교육이 이루어져야 할 것이다.

This study intended to analyze the ethical clothing consumption behavior of female adolescents and use it as a basic data for education. Specifically, the female adolescents were classified according to their shopping orientation and then the differences among these groups were examined in terms of their ethical consumption behavior of clothing products, i.e., buying, using and disposing. As a result, three groups were identified: pleasure-seeking, intermediate, independence pursuing according to the shopping orientation sub-factors (loyal, enjoyment, impulsive, imitative and independent). The pleasure-seeking group were more likely to conduct ethical use behavior of clothing products, while the independence-pursuing group conducted more ethical buying and ethical disposing behavior. The lower their desire to enjoy shopping itself, the more cautious they are about their own decisions, and the more confident they about buying from the brand and store they liked, the more likely they were to conduct ethical buying behavior of clothing products. On the other hand, when the emotional and desire-seeking tendencies are combined with independent shopping tendencies, the more likely they conduct ethical use behaviors. In addition, the more they make independent purchasing decisions, the more likely they are to conduct ethical disposal behaivors. The results of this study suggest that providing detailed consumer education that considers individual differences in shopping orientation is needed.
