초록

본 연구는 모바일 소셜 게임(Mobile Social Network Game, MSNG) 중의 유료아이템 구매의도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 결정하기 위한 모델을 게임특성과 개인특성을 상호작용성, 접근성, 재미성, 조작성, 개인혁신성, 도전감 총 6 개 요인으로 추출하여 인지된 플로우(Flow)와 만족도를 매개변수로, 구매의도를 종속변수로 설계하여 중국시장을 중심으로 제안하고 검증하였다. 설문지를 통해 데이터를 수집하고, 또한 Amos를 이용하여 구매의도와 목표 영향 요인 사이의 관계를 분석한다. 연구결과를 보면 MSNG의 게임특성(상호작용, 접근성, 재미성, 조작성)요인이 유료아이템의 플로우와 만족도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. MSNG의 소비자특성(개인혁신성, 도전감)요인이 유료아이템의 플로우와 만족도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 셋째, MSNG 유료아이템의 플로우이 만족도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. MSNG 유료아이템의 플로우와 만족도가 구매의 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 향후연구에서는 연구 표본의 확대를 통해 한·중 MSNG를 비교하여 사회적 및 문화적 특성들을 도입하며 비교 연구를 통해 중국 게임 시장에 유익한 점을 도출하여 중국 게임 회사들에게 우수한 마케팅 전략을 제공할 것이다.
