Due to recent interest in user experience and its significance, much research surrounding this theme is now being conducted. In this research, I investigated user experience during usage of a product and the satisfaction acquired by it, as well as the relationship between satisfaction of having used a product and whether the user would be more likely to purchase another product from the same company. The same experiment was conducted in South Korea and the United States of America in order to get more generalized experimental results. I found that amongst the six representative user emotions expressed while using a product, two of them correlated the most. First, 'Satisfaction in Usability' (the emotions aroused by satisfaction with usage or the practicality of the product); and second, 'Discomfort or Displeasure' (uncomfortable or unpleasant emotions expressed while using a product. The above two factors were found to be of the most influence concerning satisfaction of the product. Also 'Satisfaction in Usability' was found to be of the most influence in their preferability towards purchasing an item from the same company in the future. The significance of this finding is that aside from focussing on the attractiveness of the product's exteriors and design, one should be concerned on the ease of usage and effectiveness as well as usability of the product, all of which contribute to how efficiently a consumer will utilize the product. Furthermore, in agreement with previous research concerning the correlation between satisfaction of a product and positive perspective on consecutive purchases, the result of this study shows that the more satisfaction consumers feel after using a product, the more likely they are to purchase additional merchandises from the same company which manufactured the original product.

A common assumption in marketing channel is that assortment benefits consumers. Recent research, however, has suggested that increasing the size of the choice set may have adverse consequences on the consumer choice. This research is to identify several factors that could affect the consumer choice in the context of product assortment. Especially, this research focus on the influence of the number of alternatives on the likelihood of purchase from the choice set. The preference for the no-choice option decreases as the number of alternatives increases. And it becomes higher when a dominating alternatives is present. And familiarity are considered as a factor affecting consumer's preference for a no-choice option. When a dominating alternatives is present, there is a positive and significant interaction between familarity and choice set size. It concludes with a discussion of the implications of the research findings and directions for future research.
