It is widely known that consumer satisfaction, as well as consumer voice and loyalty, affect firms' performance. Prior studies on consumer satisfaction have focused on expectancy disconfirmation theory and its effects on satisfaction related to disconfirmation with consumer expectation and with perceived performance. This study classified consumer expectation into should-expectation and will-expectation, and investigated how disconfirmation with these expectations affects consumer satisfaction differently based on regulatory focus. Specifically, for promotion-focused consumers, disconfirmation of will-expectation has a more significant influence on consumer satisfaction than that of should-expectation. For prevention-focused consumers, disconfirmation of should-expectation has a more significant influence on consumer satisfaction. The results of this study provide academic insights that not only generic expectation (will-expectation) but also should-expectation play an important role in determining consumer satisfaction according to regulatory focus. In addition, it is expected that the findings can be used as a guide to manage consumer expectation in practice.

This study examined the concept and usage moderated mediating model in structural equation modeling. The theoretical model and hypothesis were developed based on the Location-Based application's Expectancy disconfirmation, Location-Based application's satisfaction, Location-Based application's continuous usage intention, service trust. The statistical results of the two model were compared: one was free model(positive/negative) and the other was the Moderated Mediating Model(positive/negative). A structure equation model analysis was carried out to test the research model. Further studies are necessary to Ssupport the research hypotheses.

The purpose of this study is to reveal their satisfaction procedures from users of information service expectation-disconfirmation theory. To achieve this goal, we use the NDSLQual model to measure the quality of NDSL service. The results were as follows: First, while the expectation has a negative effect on the expectation-disconfirmation, it has a positive effect on the perceived performance. And perceived performance has a positive effect on the expectation-disconfirmation. Second, the expectation-disconfirmation has a positive effect on the overall satisfaction and loyalty. However the explanatory adequacy of the regression model is very low. Third, perceived performance has a positive effect on the overall satisfaction and loyalty. In order to increase the overall satisfaction and loyalty for NDSL, it is necessary to seek ways to improve the perceived performance and lower the expectation-disconfirmation.

본 연구는 서비스 접점에서 서비스 실패가 일어나는 경우 기업의 복구노력이 고객의 만족에 마치는 영향에 관한 연구이다. 먼저 서비스 실패에 대한 기업의 복구노력이 갖는 의미를 살펴보고, 서비스 복구노력이 고객의 만족과정에 어떻게 영향을 미치는 지에 대하여 항공산업을 연구대상으로 기대불일치이론, 정당성이론 및 귀인이론을 적용하여 다양한 관점에서 실증 분석하였다. 특히 기대불일치이론 및 정당성이론에 관한 선행 연구들을 상세히 고찰하고, 이러한 이론적 관점에서 서비스 실패 후 기업의 복구노력이 고객의 만족과정에 어떻게 영향을 미치는 지를 다중회귀분석 및 구조방정식 모형을 이용하여 실증 분석하였다. 또한 조직행동론의 연구결과를 이용하여 서비스 실패에 대한 귀인적 추론결과가 소비자의 만족과정에 미치는 영향을 검증하였다

Korea Communications Commission (KCC) has been providing the pilot service of URC(Ubiquitous Robot Companion), which is a network-based personal robot, to 1000 Korean households since 2006 to define potential users' needs and adoption behaviors. Personal innovativeness might play a critical role in adoption of URC services by users because much sophisticated and convergence technologies are incorporated into URC services. Also, defining not only perceived beliefs about URC services but also expected beliefs about them are very crucial to reduce disconfirmation between users' perception and expectation of URC services. From this point of view, this paper aimed to examine robot users' adoption behavior by considering constructs such as personal innovativeness, usefulness (perceived usefulness - expected usefulness, P-E), user attitude, and intention to use. The findings reveal that personal innovativeness is negatively related to usefulness (P-E) whereas usefulness (P-E) influences significantly and positively on user attitude. It is also shown that usefulness (P-E) and user attitude have strong positive effects on intention to use.

본 연구는 인터넷 쇼핑몰의 고객만족과 지속사용의도를 예측하기 위해 구매 경험자를 대상으로 구매의사 결정 시 이용한 정보에 대한 사후 만족 측정을 통해 정보원천의 중요성과 영향력을 규명하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서의 구매와 관련된 기대형성에 정보원천이 미치는 영향과 전통적인 기대불일치 패러다임하에서 기대불일치와 만족간의 관계를 온라인 환경에서는 정보만족이 매개함을 살펴보았다. 분석결과 첫째, 정보원천 중 자신의 구매경험이 기각되었으며 반면 다른 소비자의 소비경험인 온라인 구전정보가 가장 많은 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 전통적인 기대불일치이론과 달리 인터넷 쇼핑몰에서는 전반적 만족에 대한 정보만족의 매개효과가 나타났다. 셋째, 전반적 만족에 대해 정보만족이 직접효과가 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 의사결정 유용성은 전반적인 만족과 지속사용의도에 직접 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 온라인 환경에서의 정보의 중요성을 실증한 것으로 정보를 통한 기대관리, 정보만족을 기반으로 한 고객만족과 지속사용을 예측할 수 있게 해준다.

The purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting users' continuing use of Hedonic Information Systems(HIS). Focusing on users' post-adoption behaviors, this study proposes a research model which incorporates technology acceptance theory into expectation disconfirmation theory and investigates the causal relationship among five factors; perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, disconfirmation, user satisfaction, and continuance intention to use a blog as HIS. The results show that satisfaction is significantly influenced by disconfirmation and post expectations(perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use), and in particular the impact of disconfirmation on user satisfaction is stronger than those of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. The results also indicate that while perceived usefulness and user satisfaction have significant impacts on continuance intention, perceived ease of use does not do so and has only an indirect impact on continuance intention through perceived usefulness and user satisfaction.

Consumer expectation is divided into rational and emotional components with regard to the experience of products or services. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between these two types of expectations and consumer satisfaction. For the theoretical framework, we use the dual expectation theory with respect to the should-expectation and will-expectation, and verify their effects on consumer satisfaction. The findings of this study imply that under rational expectation, consumer satisfaction increases when the result of their experience exceeds their expectation and the impact is stronger when the will-expectation is satisfied. Under emotional expectation, consumer satisfaction increases when the should-expectation exceeds the result of the actual performance, but decreases when there is disaccord between the will-expectation and performance. For emotional-based expectation, the impact on consumer satisfaction is stronger for should-expectancy disconfirmation than for will-expectancy disconfirmation.

본 연구에서는 서비스에 대한 평가의 모호성의 정도, 즉 서비스 모호성은 소비자 만족의 형성과정에서 만족에 영향을 미치는 선행변수들의 효과에 어떤 영향을 미칠 수 있을 것인지를 불일치 패러다임하에서 검토해보았다. 본 연구의 수행 결과 서비스 모호성이 높으면 기대나 성과는 만족에 직접효과를 가지지 못하고 불일치를 통한 간접효과를 가진 반면, 서비스 모호성이 낮으면 성과가 불일치를 통해 간접효과를 가질 뿐만 아니라 만족에 직접효과를 가지고 있음이 밝혀졌다. 불일치는 두 경우 모두에서 매개변수로서의 역할을 수행하고 있었다. 조사결과의 시사점을 이론적 측면과 전략적 측면에서 논의하고 연구의 한계 및 미래의 연구방향을 제시하였다.

This study analyzes how expectations, perceived performance and expectation-disdonfirmation of the recreation-forest visitors affect their satisfaction and revisit using path analysis. These results which would maximize visitors' satisfaction and revisit will enhance recreational forest management. As the results, factors of expectation-disconfirmation positively effected visit satisfaction are experience-facilities, natural resources, access and valley factors. In addition, natural resources factor effects positively their selection-satisfaction. Also, visit-satisfaction and selection-satisfaction effect positively to their revisit intention. This result show seeking the visitors' satisfaction through recreation-forest manager try to expectation-disconfirmation of experience-facilities, natural resources, access and valley factors exchange to positive expectation-disconfirmation.
