본 연구는 소비자들이 제품을 평가하는 과정에서 각 유형의 단서정보들이 평가과정에 어떻게 영향을 주는지를 살펴 봄으로써, 이론적으로는 정보단서와 관련하여 소비자의 제품평가 및 판단과정을 설명하는 기본적인 틀을 제시하고, 이를 통해 기업의 마케팅 및 광고전략에 대한 관리적 시사점을 제공하였다. 본 연구에서 이용된 단서의 유형은 외재적 단서(extrinsic cues)와 내재적 단서(intrinsic cues)를 이용하였다(Olson 1972; Olson and Jacoby 1973). 분석결과에 따르면 비전문가의 경우 내재적 단서는 제품평가에 영향을 미치지 못하지만 외재적 단서는 제품평가를 좀 더 우호적으로 수행하는 역할을 하였다. 이와는 달리 전문가는 외재적 단서가 아닌 내재적 단서가 제품평가에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 전문가는 내재적 단서 관련 사고를 더 많이 하며 강한 내재적 단서에 접근 가능할수록 그 성향이 증가하나 비전문가의 경우에는 외재적 단서 관련 사고를 더 많이 함으로써 외재적 단서를 더 많이 처리한다. 그러나 비전문가는 전문가와는 달리 외재적 단서의 강도가 단서 관련 사고의 수를 증가시키지는 않는 것을 알 수 있다. 또한 전문가는 내재적 단서관련사고의 우호성이, 반대로 비전문가는 외재적 단서관련사고의 우호성이 제품평가에 미치는 영향을 매개하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과는 소비자의 제품평가과정에서 단서의 효과에 따른 영향을 제시해주는 유용한 개념적인 틀이 될 것이며 향후 연구에서 다양한 확장연구가 필요할 것이다.

Currently, urban identity is a corporate management strategy of the past, and it includes the unique history and cultural heritage of the region, and it is expected to enhance competitiveness and locality. In response, the city's identity design of 31 municipalities in Gyeonggi Province is moving away from the past, building a futuristic, concise and modern image, and building differentiated identity using geometric artificial motifs. However, despite the presence of urban identity in the past, Symbolmark's boundaries and benchmarks are becoming increasingly ambiguous as it replaces CI or acts as CI and BI by developing new BIs instead of renewals. Moreover, there are cases where the slogan containing vision is used as BI, which requires professional CIP management by presenting the status analysis and direction of municipal governments in Gyeonggi Province. Thus, in this study, the theoretical background analysis and academic study of 31 municipalities in Gyeonggi Province were conducted, and the final analysis space was analyzed by schematizing how the essential meaning of symbolism is expressed and interpreted.

The purpose of this paper is to interpret the discourse on design thinking through the perspective of Roland Barthes' Mythologies. To this end, this paper will explore the mythologization process of design thinking using the methodological framework of Barthes, which structurally interprets the connotations produced using semiosis. Design thinking originally refers to a method which is used in the process of planning ideas about designs in order to create the final products for professional designs. However, design thinking has recently attracted more interest from the public because it has become known as a tool for solving various problems which exist outside of the field of design, such as social issues, management, and marketing strategies. Barthes points out that myths are used as a tool to deliver ideologies. He also emphasizes the importance of 'structural thinking'. It interprets the inherent connotative meanings more than the denotative meanings, which are explicitly shown. One of the most powerful ideologies which our society embraces today is creativity. Design thinking realizes the manifestation of creativity through a schematized process. This can be explained by considering design thinking as an icon that is specifically turned into a figuration to realize its objectness, in which a discourse for solving issues and social codes meet together and form a mythology. The mythologies that Barthes cites in his book refer to mythical values created by the cultural codes which humans have produced in our modern and contemporary age. The symbolic value of design thinking has become more important than the signifier which design thinking itself presents. This means that design thinking has become a sign that has mythical properties. In other words, the ideology of creativity embodied by design thinking has attained a mythological status, as it produces a new cultural code through innovation. The process of interpreting a phenomenon using the perspective of semiotics is an important tool that allows us to examine the concept of an object and its surroundings thoroughly. This paper attempts to expand the external scope of critical analysis about social phenomena by using the signs which continuously reveal themselves in common ideologies, such as design thinking, which has been gaining more popularity recently.

With the increase of single households and more women entering society, changes to lifestyle, a demand for convenience, and the recent trend for homemade meals, the market for HMR(Home Meal Replacements) is rapidly growing. This study reviewed the repurchase intentions of consumers for RTP(Ready-to-Prepare) HMR products, namely meal kits, and the moderating effect. The study found that i) ease of use increases with higher self-efficacy; ii) ease of use decreases with higher personal innovativeness, but usefulness and repurchase intentions increased; iii) repurchase intentions increase with higher social influence; iv) trust decreases with higher convenience, but repurchase intentions increased; v) trust and repurchase intentions increase with higher economic efficiency; and vi) price sensitivity has a moderating effect between trust and repurchase intentions. The outcomes of this study will not only provide a theoretical basis for a more detailed study of HMR, but is anticipated to be used as fundamental data for suggesting a direction for marketing strategies for product development and sales.

This study was intended to present the magnitude of privacy infringement concerns and their relationship to consumer innovation (functional innovation, hedonistic innovation, social innovation, cognitive innovation), to identify differences among groups and to suggest implications for marketing strategies for the spread of new products. The implications of this study are as follows. First, functional innovation has shown that differences exist between groups. Analysts say that sensitive groups are buying products that can simplify their work immediately after release despite concerns over privacy violations. Second, hedonistic innovation has shown that differences exist between groups. These findings suggest that sensitive groups prefer novel products, products that give excitement and excitement about products, and products that give new enjoyment and fun that they have never known before. Third, social innovation has been shown that there is no difference between groups. These analyses show that the self-esteem of using products that others have never experienced before, and the curiosity that anyone envies, are purchased or used first. Finally, cognitive innovation showed that differences existed between groups. These analyses show that new products are purchased when they meet the functions, design, and innovation that consumers want.
