The purpose of this study is to understand how self-esteem, shopping motivations, and shopping tendencies affect the clothing purchase behavior of the so-called "MZ generation," a cohort that includes both millenials and Generation Z and exerts significant influence in various areas. The results of this study can be summarized as follows: First, it was found that extrinsic purchase motivations (purchased made due to the influence of other people), trend-seeking shopping tendencies, and pleasure-seeking shopping tendencies had a positive and significant effect on personal needs among the sub-factors of clothing purchase behavior of the MZ generation. Second, it was found that the MZ real purchase shopping motivations, trend-seeking shopping tendencies, pleasure-seeking shopping tendencies, and convenience-seeking shopping tendencies had a positive and significant effect on actual needs among the sub-factors of clothing purchase behavior among the MZ generation. Third, it was found that social self-esteem, extrinsic purchase motivations, and convenience-seeking shopping tendencies had a positive and significant effect on clothing marketing strategies among the sub-factors of clothing purchase behavior of the MZ generation. On the other hand, personal self-esteem was found to negatively affect the marketing strategies of clothing purchase behavior. In other words, the expectation that the MZ generation would buy clothes in accordance with their individual preferences and beliefs was not supported by the findings of this study. It would appear that the beliefs and behaviors of the digitally savvy MZ generation are changed by the fashion trend-related information they readily access when purchasing clothing. From the above research results, it can be concluded that there many variables that influence the clothing purchase behavior of the MZ generation and it is thus necessary to consider this cohort a new consumer segment and establish marketing strategies accordingly.

현대사회에서는 시각적 이미지를 표현수단으로 하는 대중매체의 등장으로 자기 신체에 대한 미의식이 고조되어 있으며 체형의 불균형으로 인한 신체적 불만족을 보상하기 위해 여성복은 이미 여성의 신체를 사회적 이상에 맞게 수단으로 이용되어 과거 어떤 시기보다도 신체이미지를 바꾸기 위해 옷을 사용하고 있다. 이에 반해 비만체형의 소비자들은 자신의 외모를 향상시킬 수 있는 의복구입에 어려움을 겪고 있으며 그들에게 잘 맞는 의복을 선택할 기회를 제공받지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 여성의류시장에서 소외되어온 비만 체형 소비자를 대상으로 첫째. 체중조절행동과 의복쇼핑행동간의 상관성을 규명하고 둘째, 인구통계학적 특성에 따른 쇼핑행동의 차이를 파악하고자 한다. 본 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 체중조절 행동에 따른 쇼핑행동 요인과의 관계에서 다이어트 경험의 유무, 자기지각체형, 체중조절 관심정도, 체중조절 동기에 있어서 부분적으로 유의적인 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 인구통계학적 특성에 따른 쇼핑행동의 차이를 파악해 본 결과 연령, 결혼여부, 학력, 직업, 가계수입에서 모두 유의적인 차이가 나타났다. 본 연구결과의 시사점은 관련업계에 잠재된 중요한 여성복 시장임을 인식시킬 수 있는 계기를 제공함과 아울러 침체된 패션산업의 새로운 틈새시장으로서의 여성복 시장 개발을 위한 기초자료를 제공할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study was to acquire the better and more correct information on the school uniforms with which middle or high school students may be satisfied. We investigated clothing interest, school uniform satisfaction, school uniform modification behavior and the relationship anions those factors. The data were collected from 472 questionnaires of middle and high school students who lived in Gyeonggi-do and analyzed statistically. We found that adolescents felt a great interest in appearance, fashion, brand orientation of clothing, and they spent most of personal expenses in buying clothes. However, the extent of adolescents' satisfaction on school uniform was low. Especially, the satisfaction on status symbolism, fashion, washing & management, body comfort and economical efficiency of school uniform was found low. Three hundred fifty three students (74.8%) agreed to modify the school uniform for personality and in chase of fashion. Two hundred eighty four students (58.1%) needed partially and variously modified school uniform, and these modifications showed a tendency of tightness to the body. We also found that the higher adolescents' clothing interests in appearance, conformity, modesty and brand orientation were. the more satisfied adolescents were with the status symbolism and the washing & management of school uniform and the more affected the school uniform modification behaviors of students were. There were. however. no significant difference between the extent of school uniform satisfaction and the school uniform modification behavior, Another research of school uniform will be necessary in order to reduce the discrepancy between clothing needs for representing the appearance, personality and fashion in the present adolescents and those for representing the worthy and modest images of a student and pursuing the economic value through school uniform in the older generation. We suggest that students should consider these results when they choose school uniform and furthermore both the person in charge of schools and school uniform makers should refer to those when they design and make school uniform.

일찍이 제품흥미나 중요성 대신 관여(involvement)의 개념이 소개된 이래로 마케팅과 소비자 행동 분야뿐 아니라 의류학분야의 여러 연구에서 관여는 구매자의 행동을 이해하는데 중요한 변수로 이해되어왔다. 그러나 관여의 개념은 의류제품의 특수성으로 인하여 변인이 조작적으로 정의되는 과정에서 의복관여, 유행관여, 패션관여 등의 용어가 혼용되어 왔다. 이러한 경향은 선행연구와 후행 연구의 연계성이라는 측면에서 “의복관여”라는 변수를 도입한 연구들의 해석에 많은 어려움을 주어 왔다. (중략)

본 연구는 소비자의 실제적인 의복 소비 행동을 설명할수 있는 가치 개념을 제시하기 위하여 의복 소비가치의 구체적 유형을 밝히고, 적합하고 신뢰성 있는 의복 소비가치 척도를 구성 할 수 있는 기초자료를 제시 하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 Sheth(1991)의 소비 가치 이론과 의류학 및 소비자 행동분야의 다양한 이론을 토대로 초점집단면접(Focus Group Interview)을 통하여 소비가치에 대한 탐색적 접근을 시도한 결과를 논의하였다. 의복의 구매와 착용의 선택상황에 영향을 미치는 소비가치는 Sheth(1991)의 5가지 소비가치 유형인 기능적 가치, 사회적 가치, 감정적 가치, 진귀적 가치, 상황적 가치 및 의복제품의 특성에 따른 자기표현적 가치로 분류되었다. 기능적 가치는 물리적 속성, 물리적 기능, 도구적 성과와 관련되었으며, 사회적 가치는 사회계층, 준거집단, 인구통계 적 특성 집단, 문화-민족적 집단과의 관련성 에 대 한 가치로 구성되었다. 감정적 가치는 긍정적, 부정적 감정 및 심미성 요인으로 구성되었으며, 진취적 가치는 다양성추구행동 요인 및 유행성의. 새로움 추구 요인과 관련되었다 또한 상황적 가치는 의복착용상황, 구매상황, 커뮤니케이션 상황으로 구성되었으며, 자기표현적 가치는 성격, 이미지 표현, 개성추구, 유행추구 등의 요인으로 구성되었다. 본 연구의 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 소비가치에 대한 양적 연구를 실시한다면, 보다 객관적인 구조를 파악하고 신뢰성 있는 측정 문항을 개발할 수 있을 것이다.
