초록

최근 금융사는 영업점 축소와 비대면 서비스의 확대 추세와 맞물려 챗봇 서비스의 활성화를 추진하고 있다. 그러나 기술적 한계와 이를 둘러싼 내·외부 환경의 제약이 존재하는 상황에서 일시에 챗봇 서비스를 확대하기는 어렵다. 따라서 챗봇 서비스의 제반 상황을 분석하여 단계별로 발생 가능한 문제를 선제적으로 확인하고 해결방안을 모색할 필요가 있다. 이에, 본 연구는 금융 챗봇 서비스 사용자의 사용 의도 및 행동을 고찰하기 위해 현장 실무자 및 연구자 12명을 대상으로 인터뷰를 진행하고, 이를 계획된 행동이론(Theory of Planned Behaviors, 이하 TPB)으로 해석하였다. 연구 결과, 사용자들은 챗봇 사용 경험을 통해 갖게 된 편리함이나 불편함 등의 '감정 및 태도', 군중 심리나 타인의 공감을 갈망하는 심리 등의 '주관적 규범', 챗봇 사용 과정의 어려움이나 편리함에 대한 인식에 따른 '행동 통제' 등의 특성이 드러났다. 이를 통해 이 특성이 사용자의 챗봇 서비스에 대한 지속적 사용 의도와 실제 행동에 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 후속연구에서는 실제 사용자를 대상으로 하여 구체적인 사용 의도와 영향 요인을 실증적으로 연구해 볼 필요가 있다.

Recently, financial companies are promoting chatbot services in line with the reduction of branches and the expansion of non-face-to-face services. However, it is difficult to expand the chatbot services at once in the presence of technical limitations and constraints of internal and external environment. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the various situations of chatbot service to preemptively identify problems that can occur in stages and seek solutions. This study conducted interviews with 12 field practitioners and researchers to examine the intentions and behaviors of financial chatbot service users and interpreted them using TPB. The study revealed the characteristics of 'feelings and attitudes' such as convenience or inconvenience from the chatbot experience, 'subjective norms' such as herd behavior or the yearning for empathy of others, and 'behavioral control' according to the recognition of difficulty or convenience of chatbot use process. This study shows that this characteristic can affect the intention and actual behavior of users to use chatbot service continuously. In the future research, it is necessary to empirically study specific intentions and influence factors for actual users.
