Abstract

Many online shopping sites now offer personalized recommendation systems to improve consumers' shopping experiences by lowering costs (time, cost, etc.), catering to consumers' tastes, and stimulating consumers' potential shopping needs. So far, domestic and foreign research on the personalized recommendation system has mainly focused on the field of computer science, which is advantageous for obtaining accurate personalized recommendation results for users but difficult to continuously track the users' psychological states or behavioral intentions. This study attempted to investigate the effect of the characteristics of the personalized recommendation system in the online shopping environment on consumer perception and purchase intention for consumers using the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) model. The analysis results adopted all hypotheses on the effect of the quality of the personalized recommendation system and information quality on trust and perceived value. Through the empirical results of this study, the factors influencing consumers' use of personalized recommendation system can be identified. In order to increase more purchase, online shopping companies need to understand consumers' tastes and improve the quality of the personalized system by improving the recommendation algorithm thus to provide more information about products.

온라인 쇼핑 플랫폼은 개인화 추천 시스템을 활용하여 소비자의 개인 정보와 행동 데이터를 수집, 분석 및 마이닝을 통해 소비자에게 맞춤형 추천 서비스를 제공함으로써 소비자의 잠재적인 쇼핑 욕구를 자극한다. 본 연구는 S-O-R 모델을 기반으로 온라인 쇼핑 추천이 구매의도에 미치는 영양을 분석하기 위하여 시스템 품질인 다양성과 정확성, 정보 품질인 설득력과 완전성을 외부 자극으로 설정하고, 신뢰 및 지각된 가치에 따른 소비자의 심리상태 하 유기체로 설정하여 구매의도 간에 관계를 탐구하였다. 온라인 쇼핑 플랫폼을 이용하는 소비자를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석결과는 개인화 추천 시스템의 품질과 정보 품질이 신뢰와 지각된 가치에 미치는 영향에 대한 가설이 모두 채택되었다. 신뢰가 시스템 품질, 정보 품질에 대한 구매의도와의 관계에서 매개역할을 확인하였으며 지각된 가치는 정보 품질에 대한 구매의도와의 관계에서 매개역할을 확인하였다. 추천 시스템이 제공하는 콘텐츠는 소비자 경험을 개선하고 소비자의 수용 정도를 높일 수 있는 방향으로 설계되어야 한다는 시사점을 도출하였다.
