Therefore, this study investigates which quality factors of cyber money are perceived to be important, and examines whether the perception of cyber money quality will vary by individual characteristics such as gender, age, cyber money usage frequency, and cyber money usage volume. The results show, based on the statistical analyses using survey questionnaire for cyber money users living in the Seoul metropolitan area, that there are differences in perception of required quality factors of cyber money among the respondents grouped by gender, age, and usage frequency of cyber money.

온라인거래가 폭발적으로 증가하면서 온라인결제에 대한 이용자 수요가 증가하고 있다. 특히 최근 들어 온라인소액결제는 다양한 디지털재화(MP3, VOD, 사이버머니 등)를 구입하는 데 활발하게 사용되고 있으며, eBay의 PayPal, 구글의 Checkout 등 해외에선 이미 차세대 온라인 비즈니스 영역으로 주목 받고 있다. 온라인소액결제는 전자 상거래에서 사용되는 결제 방식으로 금액이 작은 온라인 거래에서 사용되는 결제를 말한다. 하지만 온라인소액결제에 대한 국내외적인 성장에도 불구하고 이 분야에 대한 연구는 거의 전무한 상황이다. 본 논문에서는 온라인소비자들이 온라인 환경에서 소액결제를 이용할 때, 선호하는 결제수단과 중요시 여기는 속성에 대한 실증연구를 진행했다. 온라인 소액결제는 연령층에 따라 신용카드 결제와 상품권, 사이버머니 등의 결제 선호로 나뉘어 지고, 개인정보 보장 등과 같은 안전성에 관련된 속성을 중요시 하는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과는 향후, 온라인 소액결제에 대한 소비자 특성과 도입 및 발전전략에 대한 다양한 해석을 통해 이비즈니스 분야에 실질적으로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

The results of this study could be summarized as follows.

Specifically, The group of 'addicted to game' was similar to the group of 'flow in game' in the amount of time/money for game. Moreover they were highly likely to regard e-Sports game defeat as the reflection of their self-esteem and as the tool of gaining popularity/superiority to peers. Even though these similarities, the group of 'flow in game' was inclined not to permit deviant words/deeds and to keep the good manner in the cyber space as well as the real space, while the group of 'addicted to game' was permissible wrong and aggressive behaviors in the both cyber space and real space.
