As interest in the environment increases, consumers increasingly choose to buy products with eco-friendly production processes. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of consumption values and materialism/voluntary simplicity on the attitudes and purchase intentions toward eco-friendly fashion products. A survey of university students in Seoul was conducted and 203 questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS 23.0. The consumption values consisted of six factors: subjective value, novelty value, social value, brand value, practical value, and health/safety value. Materialism/voluntary simplicity was grouped into two factors of materialism pursuit and voluntary simplicity pursuit. Brand values were found to negatively affect attitudes toward eco-friendly fashion products. The more one pursued brand names, the more negative was one's attitude toward eco-friendly fashion products. Health/safety values had a positive effect on purchase intentions for eco-friendly fashion products and voluntary simplicity pursuit had a positive effect on both attitudes and purchase intentions. The materialist group had high subjective value, novelty value, social value, and brand value among the consumption values, and the voluntary simplicity-seeking group tended to pursue the value of health and safety. This study was meaningful in that it identified the characteristics of consumers showing favorable attitudes toward eco-friendly fashion products.

본 연구는 환경관련문헌들을 고찰하여 기존연구에서 다루어지는 다양한 주제의 환경의식들을 다섯가지 유형으로 나누어 이들 환경의식 변수군들이 소비자들의 친환경적/비환경적 소비행태에 어떠한 영향을 끼치는가를 설명하고자 한다. 또한 이러한 연구결과가 환경정책 결 정자들에게 국민들을 친환경적 소비자로 유도하는데 조금이라도 도움이 될 수 있음이 본 연구의 목적이다. 조사대상은 설문지의 난이도와 이해정도를 고려하여 약 300여명의 한국 대학생들로 선정하였다. 조사방법은 훈련받은 설문조사자를 파견하여 개인면접방식을 실시하여 이들의 환경의식과 소비행위과정에서 나타나는 환경적 소비를 질문하고 계량적으로 평가하였다. 실시된 설문조사를 통해 310명분의 설문지가 수거되었으며, 통계도구에 따라 다르지만 300부 정도가 주요 분석과 모형분석에 사용되었다. 분석에서 응답자들이 가지는 환경적 소비행태와 더불어 일반적으로 가지는 환경관련의식은 (1) 실천, (2) 습관, (3) 인식, (4) 관심, 그리고 (5) 주장 등의 다섯가지 유형으로 나뉘었고, 이들 유형을 통계변수군으로 설정하여 인구통계변수와 함께 기초분석과 분석모형 도출에 투입하였다. 분석결과 응답자들의 환경의식에서 환경에 관한 주장성향은 가장 높은 것으로 나타났으나 실천정도는 가장 낮은 것으로 조사되었다. 또한 친/비환경적 소비자들은 다섯가지 환경의식유형 모두에서 통계적으로 유의한 평균차이가 나타났으나, 연구모형에서는 인식이나 주장보다 실천, 습관, 관심 등의 환경의식이 유의한 변수로 도출되었다.

본 연구는 친환경농산물 구매에 있어서 소비자들이 생각하는 가격변수의 중요도를 살펴보고 가격수준에 대한 소비자의 의견에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 분석하는데 그 목적이 있다. 연구의 결과를 보면, 직접질문 결과 현재 친환경농산물 구매에 있어서 소비자들은 '제품에 대한 상세한 설명', '유통채널', '친환경식품 표기에 대한 신뢰' 등을 가격보다 더 중요하게 생각하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 다음으로 서열로짓분석 결과가 제시하는 바는 '어린 자녀의 수'나 '가족 중 환자 유무' 등 상황적 요인이 친환경농산물의 가격수준에 대한 소비자들의 의견에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변수로 나타났다. 그리고 마지막으로 컨조인트분석 결과를 보면 '유통채널'이 가장 중요한 속성으로 나타났으며, 다음으로 '표기에 대한 신뢰' 그리고 가격 순으로 나타났다. 이는 첫 번째 직접질문방식의 결과가 제시하는 바와 비슷한 결과로 풀이된다. 즉 '친절한 설명'이라는 변수는 컨조인트분석에 포함하지 않았음을 감안할 때, 주어진 상품프로파일 상의 선택을 이용한 간접적인 분석 결과와 직접적으로 질문한 결과가 같은 의미를 제공하고 있음을 알 수 있다.

The goal of this study is to promote the spread of environmentally friendly agricultural products, which have been receiving a lot of attention lately, as a way to improve food safety and quality. As a result of the increased labor input, increased production costs, and an aging population, environmentally friendly agriculture is making it more difficult for farmers to expand their enterprises. In the meantime, consumers find it difficult to spread eco-friendly agricultural products due to their high expectations for safety and quality, as well as the desire to purchase products at a reasonable price. Previous studies have revealed differences in perceptions between eco-friendly agricultural producers and consumers. In light of this, this study divided consumers based on their characteristics (such as age, purchase history, health concerns, etc.), and different policies were proposed in order to increase purchasing factors for each group based on their characteristics. In order to gather information for this study, general citizens were asked about their perceptions of eco-friendly agricultural products, future purchase intentions and awareness, reliability, necessity, purpose, and information sources. A two-step clustering analysis was conducted using nominal and continuous variables simultaneously. The paper presents the three derived group differences (senior organic interest group, middle-aged organic interest group, and indifferent young organics) as well as group differences for the purchasing/non-purchasing factor analysis and policy improvement for each group. An eco-friendly agricultural product distribution proposal was made at the end of this article.

Growing environmental awareness around the world has made environmental issues increasingly important in business. While most past research has focused on consumers' sustainable morals and lifestyles as the main motivations for eco-friendly consumption, few studies have examined the effect of traditional marketing programs on sustainable consumption. In this study, the author posited that delicate visual cues in store retail environments, particularly visual cues of the store interiors, affect the ways consumers evaluate the brand. The author specifically tested the effect of visual congruence, or the perceived fit between brands and visual cues in retail atmospheres, on perceived brand image and trust. The results of the online survey of 622 U.S. consumers indicated that visual congruence has a significant positive effect on consumer trust in the brand. The author also hypothesized that environmental concerns would moderate the relationships. consumers' subjective environmental concerns do not moderate the positive effect of visual congruence on trust in the brand.

This research examines the environmental consciousness of fashion consumer attitudes towards eco-friendly products and artificial leather purchase intentions. The survey was conducted from March 11 to March 15 2012 and all respondents had at least once experience of purchasing fashion items made of artificial leather. A total of 426 subjects were used in the dataset; the statistical analysis methods were frequency analysis, factor analysis, reliability analysis and multiple analysis. The results are as follows. The study finds that environmental consciousness has three dimensions of public participation, resource conservation, and recycling. Public participation, recycling, and resource conservation influenced eco-friendly product attitudes. Eco-friendly product attitudes influenced artificial leather purchase intentions. The research results show that appropriate plans in fashion business such as usefulness of design and business value will need to be provided to fashion consumers. Detailed information on materials related to fashion products as the content of environment-friendly techniques and recycling methods will help consumers to evaluate environmental-friendly attitude products.

This study investigates the changes inconsumer sensibility and product preferences according to theirecofriendly productperceptions. Stimulants (released by three companies of sport casual brands)include three shirts made of recycled polyester and three made of organic cotton. A surveymethod was used to respond to the emotion and image while watching the presented pictures of the clothes. The change in the reactions was analyzed before and after the presentation of eco-friendliness information. The questionnaire consists of sensibility adjectives, open-ended questions about the associated image of eco-friendliness, color attractiveness, product favorability, price satisfaction, and reasons for an eco-friendly productpurchase. The survey was conducted on 200adult male and female participants. Two factors ('eco' and 'design')were identifiedthrough the factor analysis of image adjectives. There was a statistically significant increase in the evaluation of sensibility, color attractiveness, product favorability, and price satisfactiondue to the re-evaluation of the same products after consumers recognized the eco-friendly information of apparel products. When consumers recognize products aseco-friendly, they evaluate the products more positively than before. The result of the analysis of the increases by textile materials shows no significant difference in the sensibility changes depending on the materials. However, with regard to 'eco', the increase of sensibility change for organic cotton products was larger than for recycled polyester products.
