The study examined moderating role of thinking style about causality in the relationship between the perceived brand globalness(PBG) and the brand evaluation. Thinking style about causality is divided into interactionism and dispositionism. Individualism culture shows a tendency of thinking style about causality to dispositionism, and collectivist cultures shows a tendency for interactionism. We conducted a survey on Korean college students who represent collectivist cultures and foreign students from countries of individualistic culture and analyzed data through structural equation modeling. Analysis result showed that the higher the respondents perceived PBG, the higher they perceived brand quality, brand quality, and brand price. However, it showed that PBG has greater positive effects on perceived brand quality and perceived brand reputation among Korean students than students from individualistic cultures. On the other hand, the effects of PBG on perceived brand price did not show any significant difference between Korean students and students from individualist cultures. Thus, we can conclude that thinking style about causality plays a moderating role in the relationship between PBG and perceived brand quality and brand reputation, while it does not do so between PBG and perceived brand price.

The purpose of this study is to find a model that can measure the public relations programs based on the assumption that the public relations should aim to lift the corporate reputation. It is a trend that corporate's activities are to be measured from the standpoint of cost-benefit efficiency. However, public relations fields in Korea is left behind this trend because the fields lack in sophisticated model. In order to fill this gap, the researchers introduce the reputation measurement model that can calculate individual corporate public relations programs. In addition, this reputation model Is applied to Korean companies with the expectation of producing a PR index which ran be used to measure the reputation as corporate asset, or superbrand. This study examines the effects of superbrand on consumers according to the media use. Based on the expert group interviews and surveys on consumers, the factors of reputation are drawn. These factors contribute to find reputation model and measurement index which are again applied to measure the Korean companies' public relations programs. Using superbrand as dependent variables and managing abilities, corporate responsibility, corporate communication, and product/employee quality, this study seeks to find which factor specifically attribute to lift corporate reputation. Results show that each factor influences the corporate reputation positively. In addition, the researchers find that media use is moderately related to the superbrand building process in cognitive dimension.

This article examined how the amount of information presented in ad design affect consumer's evaluation on the ad Existing researches have mainly considered external information presented in the ad from the resource principle perspective. This study investigated how internal information processing such as imagery information processing caused by brand names moderates persuasion effects according to the amount of external information through two experiments. The experiments leave us the conclusion that brand names presented in the ads stimulate imagery information processing when surplus cognitive resources do exist and they lead ad recipients' evaluation to positive direction in prestige brand condition and to the contrary to negative direction in non-prestige brand condition. The results contribute to the direction of ad design in that ad needs not contain as muck product-related information as needed in order to increase persuasion effects in prestige brand condition. Rather, it's necessary to leave the room for internal information processing such as imagery information processing by well structured brand equity. On the contrary, non-prestige brand needs to contain explicit product-relevant information to exert a potent influence on a4 persuasion. We hope this study result is helpful for design direction of advertisement in order to heighten persuasion effects toward ad recipients.

Brand-image also effects customers on selling company's goods. Specially, to the hotel business that should ensure lots of customer for a long period with the interest and credit of customers, its brand-image is more significant. What the image is looked upon as a important factor in marketing is due to the difficulty of discrimination against goods standardized in price and quality. Therefore, the company's image acts as a more important marketing factor in the high industrial society. Also it means a lot to the customer's purchasing behavior. When the company's brand-image is recognized or discriminated, customer's memory is longer and customer's reliability is raised than other company's advertisement and public information.

본 연구는 기업의 기술 유출 및 특허 침해라는 정보 보안 문제 발생 시, 브랜드 기업의 시장 지위에 따라 가해 및 피해 기업에 대한 소비자 반응이 달라질 수 있다는 점에서 착안하였다. 같은 예로 대한민국 국가대표 축구팀이 약팀과의 경기에서 졌을 때, 일부는 경기력을 비난하지만, 일부는 선수 부상, 날씨, 시차 적응 등 상황이 불리했음에도 잘 싸웠다고 평가하는 경우가 있다. 이처럼 어떤 부정적 결과 대해 사람들은 각자 다른 평가를 한다는 맥락에서 기술 유출과 특허 침해와 같은 정보 보안 문제가 발생한 기업에 대해 소비자 인식과 태도는 다르게 나타날 수 있다. 이와 같이 소비자 관점에서 기대와 실제가 불일치한 지각과정을 설명하는 심리적 메카니즘에는 동화-대조 효과가 있다. 본 연구는 기술 유출 및 특허 침해에서 일어나는 소비자 동화-대조 효과를 심리학의 귀인 이론을 통해 설명하고, 이 때 사람들의 귀인 방향이 브랜드 명성이 높을 때와 낮을 때, 기술 유출 경로가 내부자일 때와 내부자가 아닐 때에 나타나는 소비자 반응을 확인하고자 한다. 또한, 이로써 나타나는 소비자 반응을 귀인 이론의 방향성과 메커니즘을 통해 설명하려 한다. 동화-대조 효과에서 나타나는 귀인의 방향성과 소비자 반응 관계를 분석한다면, 추후 기업의 R&D와 기술 개발 전략, 지적 재산권 침해 이후 사태에 대한 대응과 수습에 가이드를 제공할 수 있을 것이라 기대한다.

오늘날 대학의 존재이유는 우수한 인재를 양성하고 명성을 쌓아 나가는데 있고 모든 대학들은 교육환경의 변화에 대비하여 생존의 위기감을 가지고 나름대로의 변신과 발전의 노력을 하기위한 대학 간 경쟁이 치열하게 전개되고 있으며 특히 이미지의 개선을 위해 노력하고 있다. 그중에서도 특이한 변화는 대학교명에 대한 변화로 대학이미지의 개선을 위해 빈번하게 일어나고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 대학환경 변화에 따라 대학교명에 대한 변화가 급격히 나타나고 있는 2, 3년제 대학을 중심으로 대학교명의 유형과 구조적 특성을 연구하여 대학교명의 문제점 및 바람직한 대학교명의 방향을 연구하였다. 즉, 대학교명은 구성원들의 만족과 자부심을 줄 수 있으면서도 대학의 특성을 내포할 수 있는 방향으로 작명되어야 하며 단순한 대학의 이름이 아닌 브랜드가치를 지닌 중요한 요소로 인식해야 한다.

올해로 '대한민국 신진건축사대상(이하 신진건축사대상)'은 6회째를 맞이했다. 정부가 한국식 '유로판(Europan)'을 추진한다는 목적 하에 젊고 창의적 건축사를 육성하기 위한 취지로 시작된 본 시상제도는, 만 45세 이하 건축사 중 건축사사무소를 개설 신고해 본인 설계로 준공된 작품이 1개 이상 보유한 건축사만 참여할 수 있다. 정부의 취지 만큼 국제적 명성의 건축사를 성장시키는 토양과 배려가 필요한 시점이다. 사실 단순 상수상은 의미가 없다. 건축사의 설계 작품은 건설업이나 건자재 사업을 촉진 시킬 수 있는 지식 산업으로 인식이 필요한데, 정부의 적극적인 지원 정책이 요구되는 시점이다. 신진건축사 대상은 2013년 국내 건축문화와 우수 건축사에 대한 국제브랜드화를 위해 명망 높은 신진 건축사를 키우기 위해 시작됐지만, 인센티브 부족 등 당초 기대치에 못 미친다는 지적도 있다. 정부가 그동안 공을 들여온 신진건축사 육성을 위해선 사무소 직원채용 지원, 홍보, 각종 정부사업 참여로 파이를 키울 수 있는 기회를 부여하는 등 실질적인 인센티브를 부여해야 한다는 의견도 있다. <월간 건축사>가 역대 '대한민국 신진건축사대상' 대상수상자에게 시상제도 발전을 위한 제언과 대한민국 건축사로 살아가며 느끼는 다양한 건축이야기들을 들어봤다.

Although we know that images of a country or an industry are influential factors in product evaluation, there has been little discussion about the channels through which consumers form a country or an industry image. Guided by the assumption that the image of the Korean fashion industry conveyed through U.S. media will likely affect the evaluation of Korean fashion products, we decided to examine articles published between January 1998 and June 2008 in Woman's Wear Daily(WWD), a prestigious U.S. daily trade newspaper covering all aspects of the national and international fashion business. By using the "Korean", we found 329 relevant articles. Through content analysis, we identified the aspects of the Korean fashion industry that have been considered salient to U.S. fashion media professionals. We set up categories based on the contents of the articles that discussed segments of the supply chain of the fashion industry. We found more comments on the Korean fashion industry as fiber and fabrics supplier or apparel manufacturer than in any other categories, which reflects that South Korea has been traditionally one of the most attractive sourcing countries for the U.S. fashion business. We identified significantly less coverage on the designing, branding, marketing, and retailing aspects of the Korean fashion industry. Due to economic boom in Korea, the country's fashion industry is recognized as having a highly fashion-conscious market that can afford the world's premium brands. However, the industry is viewed as being rather vulnerable to changes in the macro economic environment.
