When new information communication technologies(ICTs) have appeared, researchers and praticitioners have explored how to spread the technologies. In e-commerce, social commerce has been introduced recently and attempts to understand social commerce have proposed diverse research models. This study proposed a hypothetical model which integrates technology readiness(TR), technology acceptance model(TAM), and theory of planned behavior(TPB). Through PLS path modeling, we found that every hypothesis except social norm-intention path alone proved significant. This result means that integrated model is useful to understand the adoption of new ICTs including social commerce. Finally, based on the findings, suggestions for future research were discussed.

소셜커머스의 이용의 증가와 더불어 단점이 부각되고 있다. 하지만 소셜커머스의 특성상 소셜커머스 사이트를 통해 소개되어지는 업체들은 대부분이 소비자들이 많이 접하지 못했던 영세 업체가 많고, 사용자들은 미리 구입한 쿠폰을 통해서 받은 상품의 질과 서비스가 좋지 않아도 이벤트 성으로 이루어진 판매이기에 환불이나 교환 등이 어렵다는 점에서 소비자의 주의가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 PMI-IR 수식을 이용하여 소셜커머스에서 거래가 이루어지는 상품명과 연관 있는 상위 세개의 평을 추출하여 제공함으로써 상품의 질과 서비스에 대한 평가를 알아보고 사용자의 신뢰성 있는 거래를 도모한다.
