Abstract

As offline company and online·mobile startups meet in an untact shopping environment, competition among companies in untact shopping is increasing. In this situation, companies need their own clear strategy to create customer value. In particular, it is very important to focus on 'customer experience' to establish such a strategy in an untact shopping environment. Customer experience refers to all processes in which consumers meet and experience a company or brand at a touch point. In this processes consumers decide whether to continue to use the company and brand. In this situation, it is thought that it will be meaningful for research to examine the customer experience of untact shopping. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the customer experience of untact shopping, which is used by all generations after COVID-19, through experience quality, and to examine the impact on the expectation-confirmation Model of untact shopping. The results of this study are as follows. First, as a result of examining whether interaction quality, information quality, and outcome quality affect expectation-confirmation it was found that all qualities except interaction quality affect expectation matching. Second, as a result of examining whether interaction quality, information quality, and outcome quality affect perceived usefulness, it was found that all qualities except interaction quality had an effect. Next, as a result of applying the expectation confirmation model to the untact shopping environment and examining whether the expectation confirmation has an effect on use satisfaction, it was found that there was a positive effect. As a result of examining whether perceived usefulness affects use satisfaction, it was found to have a positive effect. As a result of examining whether perceived usefulness affects expectation confirmation, it was found that there is a positive effect. Finally, as a result of examining whether perceived usefulness affects the intention to continue using untact shopping, it was found to be positive. Next, as a result of examining the effect of use satisfaction on trust, it was found that there was a positive effect. Finally, as a result of investigating whether trust has an effect on the intention to continue using, it was found that there is a positive effect. Looking at the important results especially, information quality was found to have the greatest influence.

기존 유통기업과 플랫폼을 중심으로 한 신생기업들이 언택트 쇼핑에서 만나면서, 언택트 쇼핑 안에서 기업들의 경쟁이 더욱 치열해지고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 기업들은 자사만의 확실한 전략이 필요하다. 언택트 쇼핑에서 전략을 수립하기 위해서는 '고객경험'을 살펴보는 것이 매우 중요하다. 고객경험은 소비자가 기업이나 브랜드 등을 서비스 접점에서 만나 경험하는 모든 과정을 의미한다. 이 과정에서 소비자는 해당 기업과 브랜드를 지속이용 할 것인지를 판단한다. 본 연구는 언택트 쇼핑의 고객경험을 경험 품질을 통해 살펴보고, 기대일치 모델에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 본 연구의 중요한 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째 상호작용품질, 정보품질, 결과품질이 기대일치에 영향을 미치는지 살펴본 결과 상호작용품질을 제외한 모든 품질이 기대일치에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째 상호작용품질, 정보품질, 결과품질이 지각된 유용성에 영향을 미치는지 살펴본 결과 역시, 상호작용 품질을 제외한 모든 품질이 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 결과를 살펴보면 정보품질이 가장 크게 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 언택트 쇼핑을 이용하는 소비자의 기대일치, 지각된 유용성 등을 충족하기 위해서는 정확하고 적합한 정보를 제공하는 것이 가장 중요하다는 것을 알 수 있다. 다음으로 기대일치 모델 내에서 기대일치가 지각된 유용성에 영향을 미치는지 살펴본 결과, 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있다. 또한 기대일치가 이용만족에도 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있으며, 지각된 유용성이 이용만족에도 지지 되는 것을 확인 할 수 있다. 따라서 언택트 쇼핑에 관련된 고객경험 전략을 수립할 때 정보품질, 기대일치, 지각된 유용성이 가장 중요한 요인이기 때문에 이를 중심으로 관련된 전략을 수립하는 것이 필요하겠다.
