본 연구는 연변 지역 조선족 여자 대학생을 대상으로 의복태도에 따른 의복구매동기를 조사함으로써 소비자의 심리적 특성을 밝히는데 그 목적이 있다. 2002년 5월에서 6월 사이에 300부의 설문지가 중국 연변 지역의 여자 대학생에게 배부되어 248부의 설문지가 최종적으로 분석에 사용되었다. 설문지는 5점 척도를 사용하였고, 통계처리는 SAS PC 프로그램을 이용하여 빈도, 요인분석, t-test를 하였다. 연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 여자 대학생의 의복태도는 유행성, 유명상표지향성, 심미성, 정숙성의 네 요인으로 분류되었다. 각 요인 별로 요인의 평균값이 높은 집단과 낮은 집단으로 분류하여 의복태도에 따른 의복구매동기를 조사한 결과, 유행성${\cdot}$유명상표지향성${\cdot}$심미성${\cdot}$정숙성 네 요인 모두 각 요인 별로 평균값이 높은 집단과 낮은 두 집단 간에 유의한 차이를 나타내었다. 유행성요인에 높은 평균점수를 갖는 집단은 낮은 집단에 비해 멋진 외모나 새로운 유행을 추구하기 위해 의복을 구입하는 동기가 높았고, 미적요인에 높은 평균점수를 갖는 집단은 낮은 집단에 비해 실용적 이유보다는 사회적 모임이나 기분의 변화를 위하여 의복의 구매동기를 가졌다. 이러한 결과를 통하여 의복태도는 중국조선족소비자의 경우에도 의복구매행동을 예측하는 좋은 변수가 될 수 있으며 시장세분화를 위한 유용한 기준이 될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
