In this study, the effect of user characteristics and technical characteristics of a blockchain-based financial platform on the intention to use of financial consumers was analyzed. Also, in this influence relationship, we analyzed what kind of causal relationship between relative advantage and perceived risk on intention to use. From June 1 to July 30, 2021, a non-face-to-face self-filling online survey was conducted with a sample of subjects who had experience using a financial platform grafted with blockchain technology, and the study was conducted in 187 copies. For statistical processing, frequency analysis, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis and 3-step mediated regression analysis were performed using SPSS 21.0 program. The significance level of the statistical value was set to less than 95%. The research results are as follows. First, it was found that innovativeness and usefulness affect the intention to use in the user characteristics. Second, in the technical characteristics, compatibility and reliability were found to affect the intention to use. Third, it was found that relative advantage and perceived risk play a partial mediating role in the relationship between user characteristics and intention to use. Fourth, it was found that relative advantage and perceived risk play a partial mediating role in the relationship between technical characteristics and intention to use. Fifth, it was found that there were differences in the ubiquity of user characteristics, compatibility of technical characteristics and intention to use according to the experience of using the certificate. The results of this study can contribute to the development of a financial platform based on the Internet of Things.

The current study investigates factors affecting intent to use of T-Commerce in enhanced TV programs. from the perspective of e-commerce users who have experienced terrestrial data broadcasting services. The research model hypothesizes the relationship among independent variables such as perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and the dependent variable, intent to use of T-Commerce. In addition, the moderating effect of user innovativeness is also analyzed. The results reveal the significant and positive relationship between perceived usefulness of e-commerce and intent to use of T-Commerce. Besides, the moderating role of user innovativeness is confined to the effect of the perceived usefulness on intent of use of T-Commerce. The findings of this study provide an implication that customer attracting strategies for potential T-Commerce users have to be differentiated based on the status in the T-Commerce development process.

The purpose of this study was to identify factors on the user's intention of using mobile E-book based on TAM(Technology Acceptance Model). System quality(accessibility and convenience), information quality, and innovation as a user characteristics were chosen as the independent variable of this study, perceived easy of use and perceived usefulness were selected as potential variable, and user's use intention was selected as dependent variable. The survey was conducted by 170 high school students and structural equation modeling was used to analyze the relationships between factors. The results showed that information quality and the user's innovation have a positive impact on both perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use while the other system factors did not affect perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use for mobile E-book. Finally, the perceived usefulness was found to have a positive impact on the user's intention to use mobile E-book.

The Purpose of this research was to identify the factors have influenced Word-of-mouth with a personal Innovativeness in using QR code and to get an advertising & marketing side implication. For this, researcher examined a SEM (structural equating model) methodology of the route from the study on the influencing factors the QR code user's pre and post acceptance behavior and applied the examined variables, existing Expanded TAM, TRAM, PAM which is a contribution points. As a result of this study, first, it was confirmed that the personal innovativeness affected user's perceived usefulness, joyfulness, use intention, and satisfaction. Second, it was confirmed that innovativeness affected perceived usefulness, use intention and this route connected to WOM, in other side, it was discussed that innovativeness affected joyfulness, satisfaction and this route connected to WOM. The above result means that 'joyfulness', 'satisfaction' are important elements, in terms of marketing aspect, for the companies to take an advantage of QR Code as a means of advertising. It should be understood that users don't spend their time on the service having no joy as quality of life improves. After all, it means that uninteresting QR Code isn't suitable for mediums of advertising.

There are so many studies on perceived risk and purchasing intention. But the results of those studies were inconsistent; some studies showed the positive effect of perceived risk on purchasing intention; others showed the negative effect. This research supposed that the inconsistence of studies resulted from the difference of group innovativeness and set up research hypotheses : among users from the lower innovativeness group, perceived risk has a negative effect on purchasing intention, but from the higher group, perceived risk has a positive effect on purchasing intention. We compared Internet shopping mall users of South Korea representing low innovativeness with those of China representing high innovativeness. The results provided that among South Korean users, perceived risk had the statistically insignificant negative effect on purchasing intention, but among Chinese users, it had the statistically significant positive effect on purchasing intention. Additionally, this study found that perceived risk influenced users' fun which in turn influenced purchasing intention.

최근 새로운 정보기술 패러다임인 유비쿼터스가 등장함에 따라 그에 관련된 다양한 서비스들이 도입되어 확산되고 있다. 그러나 이 경우 제품이나 서비스가 아무리 혁신적이고 훌륭하다 하더라도 고객이 실용적이지 못하다고 인지하거나 만족하지 못하면 그 제품이나 서비스는 시장에서 더 이상 확산되지 못할 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유비쿼터스 서비스의 만족도에 영향을 미치는 선행 요인과 결과요인에 대한 실증적 연구를 통해 기업이 향후 유비쿼터스 서비스를 개발하고 이용자를 확대하는데 시사점을 제공하고자 한다. 이에 본 연구는 기존 문헌을 바탕으로 유비쿼터스 서비스 만족도의 선행요인과 결과요인 모델을 제시하고 실증하였다. 그 결과 편재성, 상황기반 제공성, 친화성과 같은 유비쿼터스 특성요인은 유비쿼터스 서비스에 대한 지각된 유용성을 높이고, 이 지각된 유용성은 유비쿼터스 서비스에 대한 만족도을 높이고 만족도는 재이용의도와 추천의도에 유의한 영향을 마치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실증결과를 바탕으로 유비쿼터스 서비스 활성화를 위한 마케팅적 시사점을 토의하고, 연구의 한계점과 향후 연구방향을 마지막에 제시하였다.
