Recently, product design innovation to improve user experience has been perceived as a core element of enterprise competitiveness due to the fierce market competition and decrease of the technological gap between companies, but there is insufficient services to support the product experience evaluation of small and medium-sized companies (SMCs). The aim of this study is to develop a web-based product user experience evaluation and certification system supporting product design practices for SMCs. For system interface design, we conducted systematic functional requirement elicitation methods such as user survey, workflow analysis, user task definition, and function definition. Then main functions, information structure, navigation method, and detailed graphic user interfaces were developed with consideration of user interactions and requirements. In particular, it provides the databases for evaluation efficiency to support the evaluation process above a certain level of performance and efficiency, and knowledge databases to utilize in the evaluation and product design improvement. With help of the developed service platform, It is expected that the service platform would enhance SMCs' product development capability with regard to the user experience evaluation by connecting the consulting firms with SMCs.

This study examined to identify the factors influencing on inpatients' satisfaction with hospitalization and willingness to recommend hospital to others. Data from the 2018 National Patient Experience Survey were used for the analysis. Of the 593 patients experiencing inpatient services, multivariate linear regression analysis was conducted to explore the factors such as physician care, nursing care, facility and administrative support, and healthcare system on inpatients' satisfaction after controlling for their socio-demographic and health related factors. The study found that physician care, nursing care, administrative support and healthcare system were related to inpatients' satisfaction and willingness to recommend hospital. To improve inpatients' satisfaction, it is necessary to improve healthcare professionals' overall patient-centerdness attitude, user friendly hospital facilities and administrative support services and efforts to trust and satisfaction on healthcare system from the patients' perspectives.

This study compares and analyzes user experiences of intelligent personal assistant services based on the evaluation criteria of human-computer interaction to explore positive elements of user experiences and factors that could be improved. The research was conducted on Apple's Siri, Google's Google Associate, and Samsung's Bixby, which is presently the smartest personal assistant service on the market. The research method was to compare and analyze the concepts and characteristics of the current services through a literature review and by interviewing seven UI/UX design experts for the second 2 weeks using contextual inquiry. The interview reorganized Peter Morville's user experience honeycomb, reducing his seven usability principles down to five, asking questions about usability, convenience, visual attractiveness, reliability, and satisfaction. On the basis of the reconfigured usability principle, the assessment was conducted on the basis of the assessment timing and the system usability scale. This study is meaningful in that it analyzed the user experience of artificial intelligence personal assistant services both quantitatively and qualitatively.

The purpose of this study is to deliver both market-practical and civil-centric political implication for sharing economy by investigating the nature of consumer-adoption for car-sharing service. With the global interest and market proliferation of the sharing economy, various service models for sharing idle resources have also been released in Korea. Particularly, in case of car sharing service, public - private partnership projects are spreading rapidly in various local governments including Seoul, along with the growing demand for alternative transportation system centering on the urban area. This study conducted an empirical study on the process of accepting the car sharing service by analyzing the data collected from users of the car sharing service "Sharing Car(Nanum Car)" of Seoul Metropolitan Government. A survey was conducted on 281 users in their twenties who are in the age of main use among the experienced users of the "Sharing Car(NaNum)" residing in Seoul. The result of analysis on the relationship between these users' perceived value and intention to use the vehicle sharing service would provide implications for establishing consumer(citizen)-centeric policies as well as market implications.

Recently, web casting on the internet has been expanding in number and size. Web Casting is different from the conventional television broadcasting since it can transmit various types of information through multimedia and it also can include interaction between users and broadcasting server. User experience by interaction becomes more important. Therefore, it is needed to win over customers by supplying satisfied experience through creative and different services, especially when there are consider competitions among music casting sites. In order to know how to make customers satisfied, we have to try to inspect what real customers in the Web Sites are acting and thinking, namely 'customer experience'. The 'customer experience' means every experience what users are expecting, doing, thinking and feeling when they stay in the Web site and online. In this thesis, the evaluation Guideline for music casting websites is developed by understanding customer experience on the music casting websites. The process of understanding customer experience was implemented through user observation methods, such as web Diary, group interview, and questionnaire. As a result of the study, 67 evaluation Guidelines with weight rate in 6 categories which are searching music, listening music, music video, music broadcasting, music mailing and other contents are developed. It can be used to analyze strengths and weakness of music casting sites and to establish business strategy for the more satisfied customer experience.

The purpose of this study is to classify the customers according to the characteristics of the relational benefits and to compare the performances of the sub-groups. As a result of the research, the group type according to the relational benefits was subdivided into 3 groups, and each group was named emotional relational group, continuous relational group and intermittent relational group considering customer characteristics. First, the emotional relational group is the group that emphasizes the empathy and assurance between the service provider and the customer, and the continuous relational group is the group with the highest social, confidence and economic benefits. The intermittent relational group was simply a transaction-oriented group. This implies that a differentiated customer management strategy is needed for each relational benefit group based on customer experience in medical services.

1990년대 이후 인터넷을 비롯한 각종 기술의 발달로 TV 홈쇼핑, 인터넷 쇼핑, 카탈로그 쇼핑, 모바일 쇼핑 등과 같은 새로운 소매업태가 등장함에 따라 각기 다른 소매업태, 즉 각기 다른 쇼핑 환경들이 어떻게 소비자의 가치지각에 영향을 미치는 가에 대한 연구가 필요성이 제기되었다. 이를 위해 본 연구에서는 인지 심리학의 한 이론인 인지 연속성 이론의 동태적 과업시스템을 소비자의 쇼핑 행동에 적용하였다. 즉 소비자의 쇼핑 경험을 소비자와 쇼핑 환경이 상호작용하는 동태적 과업으로 간주하였으며 이에 따른 가치지각을 연구하고자 한 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 본 연구에서는 동태적 쇼핑 경험의 구성요소로서 내ㆍ외면적 특성인 소비자의 쇼핑성향과 쇼핑 환경을 정의하였으며 소비자의 경험가치에 있어서는 Holbrook의 경험가치 척도를 적용하여 소비자의 동태적 쇼핑경험이 쇼핑가치지각에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 가를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 본 연구에서 적용한 경험가치척도는 경제적 가치, 효율성, 내면적 즐거움, 현실도피성과 같은 추구 가치와, 시각적 매력, 엔터테인먼트 가치, 서비스 우수성과 같은 수동적 가치로 구분되며 실증분석 결과 이러한 경험가치들은 각각 동태적 쇼핑 경험의 내ㆍ외면적 특성에 따라 서로 다른 영향을 받는 것이 검증되었다.

시멘틱 웹은 전자거래의 지능화 및 자동화를 실현하기 위한 필수적인 요소로 인식되어가고 있다. 시멘틱 웹에서 사용자와 서비스 정보가 공유되고, 위치, 날씨, 일정과 같은 사용자의 컨텍스트 정보를 활용하여 모바일 장치를 통해 고부가가치의 개인화된 모바일 서비스를 제공하는 것은 그 유용성에 비하여 아직 실제 사용하는 사례가 드물었다. 본 논문에서는 카네기멜론대학에서 실제로 추진되었던 Mycampus 프로젝트에 참여한 경험을 바탕으로 시멘틱 웹과 컨텍스트 기반의 모바일 서비스의 구현 방법과 교훈들을 밝히고자 한다.

도서관은 공공서비스 중에서도 강제적인 서비스가 아니고 임의적인 또는 생활의 질과 관련되는 서비스이기 때문에 서비스 수요는 접근용이성이나 주변환경 등의 영향을 받게 된다. 그러나 지금까지 우리나라의 공공도서관의 입지결정은 정책결정자의 의지나 경험이 크게 작용하여 이용자의 이용측면을 고려하지 않고 설립되었다. 본 연구는 공공도서관의 입지와 이용과의 관련성을 밝히기 위하여 이용자가 인지하는 접근용이성과 주변환경의 주관적 인지도를 측정하고 이용이 높은 도서관과 이용이 낮은 도서관간의 차이를 밝힘으로써 앞으로의 공공도서관의 입지선장에 유용한 자료를 제시하는 데 그 목적을 두었다.
