Purpose: The purposes of this study were to identify the segments of the Home Meal Replacement (HMR) market according to food-related lifestyle of Japanese consumers, and to investigate its demographic characteristics, the HMR purchase status and needs of new HMR product development. Methods: A total of 2,720 domestic consumers living in Japan were surveyed using a self-administered questionnaire and 488 responses were returned. Excluding responses with significant missing data, 467 responses were used for data analysis. Results: As a result of cluster analysis, three consumer segments were identified. The diet-highly concerned segment had the highest food-related lifestyle score, followed by the diet-moderately concerned segment, and the diet-unconcerned segment (p<0.001). A significant difference in demographic characteristics among the three segments was found with respect to the type of residence (p<0.05). There were significant differences in the main place (p<0.01) and average expense (p<0.001) for HMR purchases by food-related lifestyle segments. In the case of new HMR products that need further development, 'low-sodium products' had the highest demand scores in all three segments. In the diet-highly concerned segment, the mean scores of demand for new products were significantly higher than those in the other segments (p<0.001). Conclusion: The findings of this study can be used to develop new products for the Japanese' HMR market. The segments identified in this study should be updated and revised regularly to reflect changes in the characteristics of each food-related lifestyle segment.

본 논문은 브랜드 쌀 구매에 영향을 미치는 요인(factor)들이 소비자 특성에 따라 차이가 있는지를 분석하기 위한 목적으로 수행되었다. 분석을 위하여 서울시에 1,000명의 주부를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 그 주요 내용은 다음과 같다. 먼저 주부들이 쌀 구매에 영향을 미치는 11개 항목을 5점 리커르트 척도를 이용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 소비자들이 가장 높은 점수를 부여하는 것은 쌀의 잔류 농약 정도로서 4.12점이 나왔으며, 영양가 높은 쌀(4.01점), 쌀알의 모양(3.96점) 및 쌀의 생산지(3.88점) 등의 순위가 높았다. 요인분석을 위해 고유치(eigen value) 값이 0.8 이상인 경우를 기준으로 요인 수를 분석한 결과 다섯가지의 요인이 추출되었으며, 그 특징은 유형적 차원과 무형적 차원으로 구분되었다. 전자인 유형적차원은 물리적 속성(완전미 여부, 도정일자, 잔류농약), 지역성(생산지), 외관성(크기, 모양) 및 가격성등의 가시적 차원으로 소비자가 쉽게 판단하거나 쌀간의 비교가 용이한 특성이며, 후자는 심리적 속성이나 상징성을 의미하는 것으로서 브랜드 상표와 품질 인증 마크가 가지는 신뢰성 등이 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 무형적 차원인 식품의 안전성이 도시주부간 쌀 구매에 미치는 차별성을 알아보기 위하여 정규성 검정 결과에 따라 독립표본 T-검정을 실시하였다. 분석에서 도시주부가 특성별로 두 집단으로 구분되는 기준은 자의적 분류보다는 공통적인 기준을 이용하고자 평균값(나이, 학력, 소득, 동거가족 수)을 기준으로, 그 외의 경우는 더미변수(주부직업 유무, 주거형태 및 거주지역)를 이용하여 구분하였다. 식품의 안전성으로 추출된 요인 값의 평균에 대해 두 집단간 차이를 검정하였으며, 분석 결과 주거형태가 1％ 유의수준에서, 주부취업 여부 및 거주지역이 각각 5%유의수준에서 통계적 유의성이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 반면 주부간 나이, 학력, 소득수준 및 동거가족 수에서는 유의미한 결과가 추정되지 못하였다. 본 연구결과를 볼 때, 식품의 안전성을 고려한 쌀의 마케팅 전략은 취업주부, 아파트 거주자 및 강남지역 주부들을 대상으로 한 판매활동 강화가 필요하다. 아울러 통계적으로 유의미한 결과를 나타내는 도시 주부의 특성 변수들을 세밀하게 구분해서 연구·분석하는 시장세분화 연구가 필요하다.

Recently, the risk of security incidents has been increased due to change of IT environment and development of new hacking methods. Event study methodology that measures the effect of a specific security incident on the stock price is widely adopted to analyze the damage cost of security incidents on market value. However, analysis of company's temporary stock price change is limited to immediate practical implication, and reputation loss should be considered as a collateral damage caused by security incidents. We analyzed 52 security incidents of listed Korean companies in the last decade; by refining the criteria presented by Tobin's q, we quantitatively showed that the companies has significantly higher reputation loss due to security loss than the other companies. Our research findings can be used in order that the companies can efficiently allocate its resource and investment for information security.

The establishment of an effective bidding system is critical to ensure both the high quality of civil infrastructure and proper earning of contractors. However, the continuous changes of a bidding system in South Korea reveal that problems such as a dumping or high price winning have not been fully resolved yet. This study thus aims at understanding the bidding behavior and strategies of contractors by analyzing a tender ratio in historical data. Multiple regression analysis is conducted to understand the effect of internal and external factors (e.g., estimated cost, combined value of construction performance evaluation) on a tender ratio. The results statistically show that such factors affect the tender ratio an individual bidder determines and have the varying effect on the tender ratio by contractors' firm size.

This study focuses on the analysis of purchased items' relationship occurred by consumers' purchasing behavior observed in on-line shopping mall based on social network analysis. In order to find relational characteristics of each item for establishing marketing strategy, we apply three definitions of centrality in network, which are degree centrality, betweenness centrality, and closeness centrality in the purchased items' network. Thus, the research results provide the criteria for selection of market segmentation variables. Furthermore, the details of case has been introduced to validate the analyzed results in terms of marketing strategy, and supporting evidences are provided accordingly.

Values are lasting beliefs that are at the center of human behavior and not be often changed. Different values make different behaviors, and similar values form similar behaviors. Consumers' values affect not only the cognitive process but also behaviors in a powerful and comprehensive way. There have been many studies regarding prediction of consumer patterns and identification, measurement methods of values. This is because if we can accurately measure the value system, it can be used in many areas of marketing such as market segmentation, new product development, and advertisement. In case of seafood, it is also necessary to make marketing strategies by segmenting consumers based on their value systems. The objectives of this study are as follows: First, it is to find out the connection process from the properties of seafood products that consumers consider important, to the benefits, and finally to the values they pursue by applying the means-end chain theory, using the Laddering method. Second, using a two-step cluster analysis, we aim to segment seafood markets based on consumers' values and investigate characteristics of segmented markets. Based on objectives, it is expected that this study would provide informations on seafood consumers and help to establish seafood marketing strategies for producers and distributors. Analytical results of the value system using a means-end chain theory indicated that there were seven complete links, that is, ladders among fresh seafood products. In case of processed seafood products, there were total 9 complete ladders. The empirical analytical results of market segmentation according to the values showed fresh seafood products were divided into three groups. In case of processed seafood products were segmented into two groups.

After platform changed from PC-based internet to mobile, SNS became new interactive media which relaces face-to-face interaction. the SNS users have already begun to recognize SNS as daily necessity. SNS market has been subdivided. In other words, SNS has entered into a period of vertical SNS that focus on contents and specific target. Therefore, It is necessary to analyze users for SNS planners. For this reason, analyzing why office workers who have the most powerful purchasing power use SNS is meaningful for SNS planners. Therefore, in this study, we analyzed the reasons for using SNS of office workers by studying relationship among office workers' stress, social support, self-expression and the use of SNS. As a result, the use of SNS has a significantly positive correlation with social support and self-expression. The self-expression in the SNS is not associated with stress, but rather it is the characteristics of the office workers. However the social support in the SNS affects to stress.
