This study investigates the importance of brand and retailer associations when consumers evaluate a product category extension in the context of brand and retailer collaborations. Although brand extensions are considered to reduce costs for introducing a new product category, limited study has focused on the role of brand and retailer associations in the context of brand and retailer collaborations. Using a total of 440 participants, a hypothesized model was tested using a structural equation modeling (SEM). The results show that brand and retailer associations influence the perceived fit between a brand and a retailer. In addition, the image fit and quality fit are significantly related to brand and retailer attitudes as well as brand extension evaluation. Since consumers may use their associations with brands or retailers when they perceive product differentiation, market position, and brand extensions, the role of brand or retailer associations is important to marketers, retailers, and consumers. Given the importance of brand and retailer collaborations as a brand positioning strategy in the global branding and retail setting, the findings of this study contribute to brand and retail management by providing empirical evidence on how consumers perceive new products from extended brands in the marketplace when a brand collaborates with a retailer.

장소 브랜딩은 특정 장소에 대한 의미 부여를 통해 장소성의 정체성 및 공동가치를 생성하며 가치 창출을 하는데 중요한 활동이며, 장소 브랜드에 대한 이미지 파악을 통해 이루어진다. 이에 마케팅, 건축학, 도시건설학 등 여러 분야에서는 인상적인 장소 브랜드의 이미지를 구축하기 위하여 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 하지만 설문조사를 포함한 대면조사 방법은 대부분 주관적인 작업이며 측정에 많은 인력 또는 고도의 전문 인력이 소요되어 고비용을 발생시키므로 보다 객관적이면서도 비용효과적인 브랜드 이미지 조사 방법이 필요하다. 이에 본 논문은 텍스트마이닝을 통하여 장소 브랜드의 이미지 강도를 객관적이고 저비용으로 얻는 방법을 찾는 것을 목적으로 한다. 제안하는 방법은 장소 브랜드 이미지를 구성하고 있는 요인과 그 키워드들을 관련 웹문서에서 추출하며, 추출된 정보를 통해 특정 장소의 브랜드 이미지 강도를 측정하는 방법이다. 성능은 안홀트 방법에서 평가에 사용하는 전세계 50개 도시 이미지 인덱스 순위와의 일치도로 검증하였다. 성능 비교를 위해 임의로 순위를 매기는 방법, 안홀트의 설문방식대로 일반인이 평가하는 방법, 본 논문의 방법을 사용하되 안홀트의 방법으로 학습한 것으로 유의한 것으로 추정되는 평가 항목만을 반영하는 방법과 비교하였다. 그 결과 제안된 방법론은 정확성, 비용효율성, 적시성, 확장성, 그리고 신뢰성 측면에서 우수함을 보일 수 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서 제안한 방법론은 안홀트 방식에 상호 보완적으로 사용될 수 있을 것이다. 향후에는 장소 브랜드 이미지를 형성하는 속성 별로 등장횟수를 계산 한 후에 장소 브랜드에 대한 태도, 연상, 그리고 브랜드 자산과의 인과관계를 자동으로 파악할 수 있는 부분까지 구현하고 실증적 실험을 할 예정이다.

Brand equity is the added value endowed by the brand to the product. This concept born in the 1980's has aroused intense interest among market managers and business strategists from a wide variety of industries. Brand equity can be approached in different perspectives according to the motivations and the objectives of the studies. Consumer-based brand equity is examined internally by consumers' cognition and feeling and externally by consume behavior in the market By analyzing the relationship between them we can understand how brand value is made in the mind of consumers and how it is converted into the consumer behavior,. The brand is an especially important extrinsic cue in clothing products and the apparel industry has higher brand equity when it is actually compared with the brand equity of many other industries measured as a financial asset. Therefore the purpose of this study was to find out brand value of clothing products through clothing brand equity and to understand consumer behavior of the brand. And so we focused in consumer-based brand equity. For the empirical study three brands that are predicted to have different level of brand equity were selected based on prices and market shares of the brands. As the result the consumer-based brand equity is composed of emotional and cognitive dimensions and each dimension has several sub-dimensions. These diverse dimensions of brand equity bring about differences in consumers' purchase behavior market share and price premium of brands.

The purpose of this study was to investigate whether customers' fashion involvement, brand familiarity, and expertise of negative information moderate the influence of the original brand attitudes on the attitude toward extended brand attitudes in the fashion market. For these purposes, four hypotheses were developed and data was collected from 480 students. Data was analyzed using SPSS methods such as factor analysis, frequency, 1-test, and moderated regression analysis. The results were as follows; first, it was found that the original brand attitudes positively influence the extended brand attitudes. Second, the influence of the original brand attitudes on the extended brand attitudes was stronger when fashion involvement was high rather than low. Third, in the case that perceived similarity between the original and the extended product classes was high, the influence of the original brand attitudes on the extended brand attitudes was stronger when brand familarity was high. Fourth, the influence of original brand attitudes on the extended brand attitudes was stronger when the perceived expertise of negative information source on the extended brand was high. Therefore, the results suggest that extending brands requires the systematic brand management considering customers' variables such as fashion involvement, brand familiarity, negative information etc. Also, it seems that the brand strategy should be based on the segmentation for targeted customers' characteristics.

Competition among cities has become fierce with decentralization and globalization, and each city tries to establish a brand image of the city to build its competitiveness and implement its policies based on it. At this time, surveys, expert interviews, etc. are commonly used to establish city brands. These methods are difficult to establish as sampling methods an empirical component, the biggest component of a city brand. In this paper, therefore, based on the precedent research's urban brand measurement and components, the words representing each city image property were extracted and relocated to five indicators to form the evaluation index. The constructed indicators have been validated through the review of three experts. Through the index, we analyzed the brands of four cities, Ulsan, Incheon, Yeosu, and Gyeongju, and identified the factors by using Topic Modeling and Word Cloud. This methodology is expected to reduce costs and monitor timely in identifying and analyzing urban brand images in the future.

이 연구의 목적은 게임 기업의 CSR 활동, 게임 프로그램 품질, 게임기업 브랜드 자산에 대한 이용자 평가가 게임 지속 이용의도에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 살펴보는 것이다. 구체적으로 다음과 같은 연구가설을 설정하여 검증하였다. 첫째, 넥슨 CSR 활동에 대한 평가와 게임 프로그램 품질에 대한 평가가 브랜드 자산에 미치는 영향, 둘째, 넥슨 CSR 활동에 대한 평가와 게임 프로그램 품질에 대한 평가가 게임 프로그램 지속이용의도에 미치는 영향, 셋째, 넥슨 CSR 활동에 대한 평가, 게임 프로그램 품질에 대한 평가, 그리고 넥슨 브랜드 자산에 대한 평가가 게임 프로그램 지속 이용의도에 미치는 영향이다. 수도권에 재학 중인 대학생 367명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시했다. 연구결과, CSR 활동에 대한 이용자 평가 중 법적 책임을 제외하고, 경제, 윤리, 자선적 책임 평가가 브랜드 자산과 게임 지속 이용의도에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 세 변인(CSR 활동, 품질, 브랜드 자산)이 게임 지속 이용의도에 미치는 영향 분석에서 윤리적 책임 평가와 브랜드 충성도만이 통계적으로 유의미했다. 이는 게임 기업 경영진이 CSR 활동을 기업 경영에 불필요한 비용으로만 보아서는 안되고, 기업 영업이익을 증대시킬 수 있는 투자의 영역으로 인식해야 하며, 기업의 윤리경영을 한층 더 강화해야 한다는 점을 확인해주고 있다.
