The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of T-shirts product type and apparel benefit on consumer preference and purchasing intention. Data for the study were obtained by $3\times2$ mixed factorial design. The subjects were two hundred and thirty college male and female students. The data were analysed by factor analysis, cluster analysis, and ANOVA by using the SPSS program. The results of this study indicated that benefit did not have effects on consumers purchasing intention but significant influences on consumer preference for brand-parody products. For brand-copy products, benefit influenced the purchasing intention, and did not influence the consumer preference. This study suggested that new fashion trends, in association with consumer's benefit, have effects on consumer's purchasing behavior. The result of this study is likely to be useful in planning marketing strategy related to product type and new fashion trends.

현대 소비자들의 충동구매행동은 보편적이고도 뚜렷한 현상으로 소비자행동 연구가들에 의해 계속적인 관심을 받고 있다. 더욱이 신용카드와 같은 마케팅 혁신은 소비자들로 하여금 현금의 필요성을 없애주고 거래를 간편하게 해 줌으로써 전보다 더 쉽게 충동적인 구매를 할 수 있도록 자극하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 한국과 미국 대학생들의 충동구매행동과 신용카드사용 사이의 관계를 알아보기 위하여, 한국(N=154)과 미국(N=194) 대학생 중 신용카드 사용자들을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였고 확인적 요인분석(CFA), 다변량 분석(MANOVA), 다판별분석(MDA), 회귀분석을 실시하여 자료를 분석하였다. 분석결과, 한국대학생과 미국대학생들은 충동구매행동 중 계획된 충동구매(Planned impulse buying), 상기된 충동구매(Reminded impulse buying), 순수충동구매(Pure impulse buying)에서 유사한 행동을 보였으나, 패션 지향적인 충동구매행동(Fashion-oriented impulse buying)은 미국대학생이 한국대학생보다 더 많이 하였다. 신용카드사용이 일반화되어 있는 미국의 대학생들이 한국대학생보다 카드 빛 관련(Debt), 크레딧(Credit) 관련, 소비(Spending)를 위한 신용카드사용을 더 많이 하는 경향이 있었다. 충동구매행동과 신용 카드사용의 관계에서 한국대학생의 경우 쇼핑 등 소비를 위한 신용카드사용 경향이 많은 사람일수록 상기된 충동구매, 패션지향적인 충동구매, 순수충동구매행동을 많이 하였다. 미국대학생들의 경우 크레딧에 신경을 쓰고 소비를 위해 신용카드를 사용하는 경향이 있는 사람일수록 구매의도만 가지고 점포를 둘러보다가 충동적으로 구매결정을 하고 구매의도가 없었어도 제품을 보는 순간 필요에 의해 충동적으로 구매를 하기도 하였으며, 신용카드를 소비에만 사용하는 경향이 있는 사람은 패션지향적이거나 순수한 충동에 의한 구매행동을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 한국과 미국의 국가간 비교연구로 대학생들의 충동구매행동과 신용카드사용에서 국가간 유사성과 차이가 있음을 밝혀줌으로써 국내외 마케터들에게 유용한 정보를 제공해 준다.

This study examines the effects of pursued benefits and satisfaction (or dissatisfaction) on repurchase intentions. The research was comprised of a 2 (satisfaction after purchase: satisfaction versus dissatisfaction) ${\times}2$ (product benefit type: utilitarian benefit versus hedonic benefit) ${\times}2$ (hyperopic disposition: high versus low) model, designed with three mixed elements. The subject participants of this study were 168 female university students aged 20 to 29 from the Seoul, Gyeong-gi do, and Chung-cheong do areas. We performed a reliability analysis, T-test, and ANOVA using the SPSS statistic package. The results of this study are summarized as follows. In terms of product benefit that influences repurchase intention based on whether a consumer has experienced satisfaction after purchasing a fashion product, repurchase intention was high for hedonic benefits regardless of the level of satisfaction or dissatisfaction after a purchase. However, we found a significant difference in preference when the hyperopic disposition of a consumer was taken into account. When dissatisfied with a purchase, consumers with low levels of hyperopic disposition displayed higher repurchase intentions for the products of hedonic benefit than those of utilitarian benefits. However, when dissatisfied with a purchase, consumers with high levels of hyperopic disposition displayed low levels of repurchase intention regardless of the type of product benefit. When consumers are satisfied with a purchase, they are more likely to repurchase hedonic products than utilitarian products.

Consumers can share their diverse opinions about products due to the increased popularity of smartphones and the internet that enables increased access to the websites and encourages the use of 'SNS' (Social Network Services). Social commerce has expanded rapidly as a mainstream online shopping channel over the past year, compelling consumers to spend more money vis-$\grave{a}$-vis social commerce websites. This allows individuals to see different lists of prices for specific products; however, it is also likely to lead to serious compulsive buying. Despite these changing trends, earlier studies have been limited to factors that affect impulse purchases vis-$\grave{a}$-vis Internet shopping malls; therefore, in is salient to conduct research on consumer spending habits related to social commerce websites. This study describes the characteristics of consumers and utilizes social commerce websites as parameters for the impact of impulsive shopping based on a survey of 300 women in their 20's who have experienced impulse buying vis-$\grave{a}$-vis social commerce websites. This study shows that: First, discounts, product scarcity and social commerce site's reputation affect impulse buying when consumers buy products from the social commerce websites. Second, variables on the characteristics of the personal experiences, interests, and self-control also stimulate impulsive purchases.

This study identifies the influence of on/off-line acquaintances' recommendation messages on fashion product attitude and purchase intention on the online purchase of fashion products in two-sided word of mouth situations as well as compares the difference in influence according to bond-base with equidistance. This study was conducted for one month on university students in their 20s who were believed to be active in smartphone use. Out of the collected 174 copies of the questionnaire, 162 copies were used for analysis. The questionnaire was classified into online and offline recommendation messages of an acquaintance. We present two-sided fashion product reviews made similar to the type found in an actual shopping mall web-site. As for analysis, confirmatory factory analysis, structural equation modeling, and multi-group analysis were conducted using AMOS 19.0. The analysis results are as follows. First, on/off-line acquaintances' recommendation messages had significant influences on product attitude in the situation where two-sided reviews on fashion products were presented; however, those messages did not influence purchase intention. Recommendation messages positively increased product attitude and enhanced purchase intention if acquaintances' recommendation messages were mediated between on/off-line acquaintances' recommendation messages and purchase intention. Consequently, a mediating effect on product attitude was revealed. Second, there was no difference between online acquaintances and offline acquaintances in terms of the influence of acquaintances' recommendation messages on product attitude and purchase intention, in the situation where two-sided reviews were presented on online fashion products. Therefore, no control effect according to the type of acquaintance was confirmed.

This study examined how middle-aged female consumers' environmental consciousness influences their attitudes and ethical purchasing behavior toward RUR (recycling, upcycling, and reuse) knit products. The research employs a survey method, targeting 30-40 year old women residing in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do Province. On-line and off-line data collection were conducted. The following conclusions emerged through statistical analyses, including factor analysis, cluster analysis, t-test, and regression analysis. Firstly, respondents' environmental consciousness variables were classified into two factors, delineating high and low environmental consciousness clusters, demonstrating significant differences between them. Secondly, the high environmental consciousness cluster exhibited more positive consumer attitudes and ethical purchasing behavior towards RUR knit products. Moreover, it was established that environmental pollution consciousness and eco-friendly product purchase consciousness influenced environmental consciousness on consumer attitudes and ethical purchasing behavior. Lastly, the study confirmed that consumer attitudes mediated environmental consciousness and ethical purchasing behavior. In conclusion, this research establishes a meaningful link between environmental consciousness, consumer attitudes, and ethical purchasing behavior in 30-40 year old women. Environmentally conscious groups positively influence attitudes toward RUR knitted fashion and promote ethical purchasing behavior. Consequently, it is recommended that knit fashion companies prioritize environmental consciousness and eco-friendly products in their marketing strategies. Furthermore, diversifying the application of RUR knit products, coupled with eco-friendly production techniques, can amplify their appeal and utility, ensuring a positive impact on consumer behavior.
