This study suggests major characteristics of the ubiquitous environment, which include pervasive connectivity, context awareness, and playfulness, by surveying mobile contents users. Also, this empirical study attempts to validate nine hypotheses and all the ubiquitous factors of mobile contents have positive effect on perceived interactivity. It is revealed that perceived interactivity is an intermediary factor which positively affects users' perceived performance, satisfaction and continuous use intention. Hypotheses of positive relationships among users' behavioral outcome factors are also accepted. Results show that ubiquitous characteristics of mobile contents influence the users' attitude and behavior through the intermediary role of perceived interactivity among users and messages and devices. This study contributes to the literature by presenting and empirically verifying the effect of ubiquitous factors of mobile contents and perceived interactivity on uses' attitude and behavior intention. Based on study results, user-oriented theoretical bases are provided for various mobile contents service, the issue of policy-making and business planning are addressed, and managerial implications are discussed.

The current categorization of digital games is not objective and is unable to assess the latest and more complex digital games. Digital games need to be systematically categorized so that similarities and differences can be identified and analyzed. The fundamental characteristic of digital games is interactivity. This paper addresses the current categorization gaps through the lens of interactivity. Through this lens, a conceptual framework consisting of primary and corresponding participants and controlling characters is developed. Future research topics are then presented based on this framework.

Interactivity is very important at ubiquitous e-Learning system oriented multi platform because online study is accomplished by multi media. In this thesis promotion for interactivity is designed at online study. By cyber education with supposed promotion used for a feedback. From now on a special research of study design should be made for interactivity and effectiveness using human sensibility ergonomics.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of interactivity on consumer-internet brand relationship and consumer's repurchase intention in internet shopping mall. The survey research was limited to the respondents over 20 years old living in Seoul and other metropolitan areas who had purchased fashion products in internet shopping mall. Questionnaire was collected from February 1, 2012 to February 12, 2012 and 562 useful data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, reliability analysis, pearson's correlation analysis using Amos 19. The results of this study were as follows: First, each interactivity dimension had a Significantly positive effect on consumer-internet brand relationship. Also it showed stronger effect on 'trust' than on 'affective commitment'. Second, People-people interactivity showed stronger effect on each consumer-internet brand relationship dimension compared with contents-people interactivity. It suggested that internet shopping mall marketer should respond quickly to consumer's need and provide the strategic method to make consumers communicate each other. Third, only 'trust' dimension of consumer-internet brand relationship positively affected consumer's repurchase intention. while 'affective commitment' dimension did not affect consumer's repurchase intention.

The purpose of this paper is to recognize and embody the implications of the concept of interactivity. Among the many types of interactivity already proposed, this paper sheds light especially on the so-called contingent interactivity. The contingency means a condition in which a particular performance or selection of a subject is considered neither necessary nor conclusive, and also the potential for various activities of this subject. The contingent interaction comes into being when the involvements of users in dealing with a message or content are experimental or creative. The interaction does not orient toward the completion of content or the immersion to a particular reality. Rather, the results of a user's contingent performance are not the finalized content and have characteristics that lead to the continuous modification. In order to embody this meaning of contingent interactivity, the paper examined the two example, the film re-cut and game modding. In both cases, it is comprehensive that the user of these two new media activities lies in the contingent situation.

This study investigates perceived social presence, perceived interactivity, perceived enjoyment, and perceived trust as antecedents of consumer engagement. We measured the attitudinal and behavioral brand loyalty as consequences of consumer engagement in social media. Our findings suggest that perceptions of social presence, enjoyment, and trust are significantly related to consumer engagement. Conversely, perceived interactivity has no positive influence on consumer engagement. In addition, consumer engagement is found to have a significant impact on both attitudinal and behavioral brand loyalty. The study revealed that, in the modified model, covariance paths among the proposed antecedents of consumer engagement (namely the perceived social presence, interactivity, enjoyment, and trust) are statistically significant. In this paper, we also discuss limitations of the study and future research.

Interactive space became one of the major design paradigms. For elevating the interactive effect, we need user-centered design methodology which uses the influential factors on the interactivity. This research is the first one of three linked- studies and categorizes the three main factors on the interactivity-Interface /Intersubject/Interaction. 'Interface' is the field for the interactivity. It will be the main subject for the second study. 'Intersubject' is the performer for the interactivity. Its specific attributes are analyzed in terms of user's needs for interactivity and six subdivisions are analyzed-functional & artistic need /external & subconscious need/info-communication & sympathy need. 'Interaction' is the performance for the interactivity. Its specific attributes are discussed in terms of behavioral interactive process and again sixsub-steps are analyzed-junction/immersion/ mental model/action/transformation/neo-experience.

Mobile contents market is growing with the rapid adoption of smart-phones. Online access via mobile compared to PC-based online access, has distinctive service delivery characteristics which are ubiquitous connectivity and contextual offer. In addition, this study includes characteristics which are relatively disadvantageous for mobile services compared to PC-based services. These are response time and supporting non-verbal informations. This study investigates the influence of service delivery characteristics to perceived interactivity and mobile service attitude. The results show that mobile services' ubiquitous connectivity and contextual offer showed a positive relationship with the perceived interactivity of the mobile service. And the response time also showed a positive relationship with the perceived interactivity, but non-verbal information didn't. When the trade-off is met between response time and nonverbal information, mobile service developer should choose response time since it has positive effect on perceived interactivity and attitude.
