In order to examine the effects of self-congruity on functional congruity, brand attitude and behavioral intention in name-brand coffee shops, this study attempted to examine the self-congruity in two types which are nonsocial-type SC and social-type SC. The results showed that self-congruity had positive significant effects on functional congruity and nonsocial-type SC influenced to functional congruity more than social-type SC. Also, these two types of self-congruity didn't have direct significant effects on brand attitude. But it had significant effects on brand attitude through the functional congruity. Finally, brand attitude positively impacted on behavioral intention. These findings provide managers in name-brand coffee shops with strategies for implementing more effective brand image building as well as focusing on satisfying customer's functional congruity.

최근 사회적기업의 빠른 성장세와 중요성에도 불구하고 대부분의 사회적기업은 영세한 사업규모, 정부에의 재정적 의존, 전문 경영 인력과 지식의 부재, 소비자의 낮은 인지도 등 많은 한계를 갖고 있다. 따라서 사회적기업의 경제적 자립을 위한 마케팅 분야의 실증적 연구가 필요하지만 현재 이에 대한 선행연구는 미미한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구는 (1) 사회적기업의 이미지와 소비자의 자아이미지 일치성, (2) 사회적기업의 상품에 대한 소비자의 기대수준과 실제 성과와의 기능적 일치성, (3) 사회적기업 상품이 내포하는 사회적 가치와 소비자의 가치일치성이 사회적기업에 대한 고객만족과 애호도에 미치는 영향을 살피고, 이 과정에서 사회적기업 동아리 소속 여부의 조절적 역할을 확인하여 사회적기업의 장기적인 마케팅에 시사점을 주고자 하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 자아이미지 일치성, 기능적 일치성, 가치 일치성은 모두 사회적기업의 소비자가 사회적기업과 그 상품에 대한 만족에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 애호도를 형성하게 한다. 둘째, 사회적 기업 동아리 소속여부는 자아이미지 일치성, 기능적 일치성, 가치일치성이 고객만족에 미치는 영향의 민감도를 낮추는 조절변수로 나타나 사회적기업에 대한 만족에 있어 동아리 활동이 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 파악되었다.

Despite the rapid growth and importance of social enterprises in recent years, most social enterprises have many limitations such as small business size, financial dependence on government, lack of professional management personnel and knowledge, and low consumer awareness. Therefore, empirical research in the field of marketing is needed for economic independence of social enterprises. This study is based on the following: First, the identity of the social enterprise and the self-image of the consumer, second, the functional correspondence between the consumer's expectation and actual performance of the social enterprise's product, and third, the social value of the social enterprise product, the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of consumer value consistency on customer satisfaction and loyalty to social enterprises. Finally, this study aimed to suggest the moderating role of social enterprise clubs in this process to give implications for the long-term marketing of social enterprises. The results of this study are as follows. First, self-image consistency, functional correspondence, and value correspondence all have positive effects on the satisfaction of social enterprise and its products and form a loyalty. Secondly, whether or not the social enterprise club belonged to them is a moderating variable that raises sensitivity in the effects of self image consistency and functional consistency on customer satisfaction and customer satisfaction on loyalty. It was found to be.

This study examines the structural relationships between functional-congruity, self-congruity and their consequences, under coffee shop consumption setting. More specifically, it investigates how functional-congruity and self-congruity influence emotional responses (comprising positive and negative emotions) and store attitude formation. The authors propose a structural equation model comprising five constructs. Data were collected from 280 college students in Seoul and analyzed by LISREL 8.30. The findings can be summarized as follows: First, functional congruence of coffee shop customers appeared to have a positive effect on positive emotions and a negative effect on negative emotions. Second, self-congruity has a positive effect on coffee shop customers' positive emotions. Third, the effect of coffee shop customers' positive emotions on store attitude formation was positive and statistically significant while the effect of negative emotions on store attitude formation was negative. These results suggested that the effect of functional-congruity and self-congruity on store attitude formation was mediated by positive emotions and negative emotions.

This study was accomplished to examine the relationship between the videogame player's perceived congruity and intention to game use, and to investigate the mediating effect of emotion as the psychological factor. Games for the research subject are confined to single player games on console or PC not online or mobile games to rule out human interaction. The results proposed that self and functional congruity have positive impact on intention to game use, and emotion is in the mediating effect of these relationships. Based on the results of the analysis, game producers have some implications for the game which is appropriate for the quality, the gamer's image, and the emotional aspect.

This study aims to provide managerial implications considering strategic priorities for maintaining existing customers and attracting new customers in extremely competitive coffee franchise market. In particular, this study is differentiated from other previous studies as it attempted to examine both direct and indirect impact relations among self-congruity, functional congruity, perceived value(utilitarian/hedonic value), and attitude. Also, this study shows the relative impact of utilitarian value and hedonic value on attitude. The results show that self-congruity has positive effects on functional congruity and value (hedonic and utilitarian value), while functional congruity has positive effects on utilitarian value, hedonic value, and attitude. Moreover, self-congruity has indirect effects on attitude through functional congruity and value. The findings also indicate that hedonic value has relatively higher impact on attitude than utilitarian value does. At the end of the paper, managerial implications and limitations were suggested.

Purpose Self-congruity deals with the effect of symbolic value-expressive attributes on consumer decision and behavior, which is the theoretical foundation of the "non-utilitarian destination positioning". Functional congruity refers to utilitarian evaluation of a product or service by consumers. In addition, recent years, social network services, especially mobile social network services have created many opportunities for e-WOM communication that enables consumers to share personal consumption related information anywhere at any time. Moreover, self-construal is a hot and popular topic that has been discussed in the field of modem psychology as well as in marketing area. This study aims to examine the moderating effect of self-construal on the relationship between self-congruity, functional congruity and tourists' positive electronic word of mouth (e-WOM). Design/methodology/approach In order to verify the hypotheses, we developed a questionnaire with 32 survey items. We measured all the items on a five-point Likert-type scale. We used Sojump.com to collect questionnaire and gathered 218 responses from whom have visited Korea before. After a pilot test, we analyzed the main survey data by using SPSS 20.0 and AMOS 18.0, and employed structural equation modeling to test the hypotheses. We first estimated the measurement model for its overall fit, reliability and validity through a confirmatory factor analysis and used common method bias test to make sure that whether measures are affected by common-method variance. Then we tested the hypotheses through the structural model and used regression analysis to measure moderating effect of self-construal. Findings The results reveal that the effect of self-congruity on tourists' positive e-WOM is stronger for tourists with an independent self-construal compared with those with interdependent self-construal. Moreover, it shows that the effect of functional congruity on tourists' positive e-WOM becomes salient when tourists' self-construal is primed to be interdependent rather than independent. We expect that the results of this study can provide important implications for academic and practical perspective.

Establishing a financial independence is essential for sustainable growth of social enterprises. In this vein, this study investigated the key factors that affect customer loyalty about the products or services provided by social enterprises. Commitment and trust in social enterprises were considered as main factors affecting customer loyalty. We also examined the effects of functional, hedonic and social value about the products or services of social enterprises on purchasing decision-making processes. The research model analysis was conducted on 204 consumers using social enterprises in Dong-gu, Daegu. The analysis of research model has shown that commitment and trust had a significant impact on customer loyalty about the product or service of those enterprises. Functional value did not have a significant effect on commitment, while it had a significant effect on trust. Hedonic value had a significant impact on both commitment and trust. Social value had a significant effect on commitment, but not on trust. Value congruence had a significant effect on both commitment and trust. Based on the our findings, it is expected that it would help establish operational and marketing strategies to improve competitiveness in products and services of social enterprises.

차량 내 전장부품이 증가하고, 차량 OEM(Original Equipment Manufacturing)이 다양한 차종을 생산 판매함에 따라 다양한 SW(software) 형상이 개발되고 있다. 따라서, 기존에 개발된 SW 형상과 변경된 SW 형상 간에 기능 일치성 검증에 대한 필요성이 증가하고 있다. 두 가지 SW 형상 간에 기능 일치성 확인을 위한 테스팅 방법으로 Back-to-Back Testing이 있는데, 이는 각 SW 형상에 동일한 입력값을 주입하고 동일한 출력값이 산출되는 지 확인하는 테스팅 방법이다. Back-to-Back Testing 수행 시 Test case 설계가 필요한데, Test case의 분량과 테스팅 종료기준에 대해서 아직 확립이 되어 있지 않다. 이제 본 논문에서는 MC/DC(Modified Condition/Decision Coverage) 개념을 이용하여 Test case 분량과 테스팅 종료 기준에 대해서 제시하고, 이를 적용한 사례를 설명한다. 본 논문에서 제시한 Test case 설계 기준을 적용하면, 제한적인 테스팅 일정과 인력을 만족하고, 기능 일치를 확인할 수 있는 충분한 테스팅이 가능할 것으로 판단한다.
