This study examines consumers' multi-channel choices in the search phase and purchasing phase stage according to price sensitivity and product characteristics in order to propose a multichannel strategy. For the research, one-way ANOVA, t-test, clustering analysis, and crosstabs are used for the descriptive analysis of 317 surveys on men and women conducted in 2014. The findings are as follows. First, consumers that both experience goods and search goods rely on surrounding advice as well as a search channel regardless of price sensitivity. Second, channel selection differs by price sensitivity when it comes to purchasing phase. Consumers with high price sensitivity tend to purchase from online channels; however, consumers with low price sensitivity tend to purchase from off line channels in cases of search goods. Meanwhile, cases of experience goods have no meaningful result. Third, consumers are divided into 3 groups by the tendency of channel selection. In case of experience goods, search channel choice is aligned with purchasing channel; however, search channel choice is not aligned with purchasing channel in search goods. This study provides clear information on fashion consumers' behavior on multi-channel choices compared to ones for search goods consumers on strategic strategies for fashion companies.

Purchasing through Internet shopping mall has more uncertainty compared with offline shopping mall. Previous studies have presented that trust plays a role of reducing uncertainty and increasing purchasing intention. In this study, we suggest that third-party assurance and word-of-mouth contribute to the formation of trust. In addition, we also propose that ease of product evaluation plays moderating roles in the relationships between third-party assurance, word-of-mouth and trust. For this study, we collected sample data from two groups consisting of online shoppers purchasing the search goods and experience goods categorized by type of ease of product evaluation. Empirical results show that word-of-mouth and third-party assurance have different effects on trust in two groups. The third-party assurance has a stronger impact on trust in online shopping group of the search goods than in the experience goods, while word-of-mouth in the online community has a stronger impact on trust in online shopping group of the experience goods than in the search goods. We expect that this result will provide researchers and managers who are interested in trust formation factors in online shopping mall with useful theoretical and practical implications.

The purpose of this study is to examine factors influencing online product transformation focusing on benefits of online shopping and word of mouth. Generally, it has been known that buying search goods is more proper than experience goods in the online. However benefits of online shopping and word of mouth make product transformation from experience goods to search goods and the product transformation promote the purchase of experience goods online. We developed a conceptual model of online product transformation including benefits of online shopping(e.g. good price and convenience), online word of mouth (e.g. bulletin board and consumer reviews), and consumer characteristics (e.g. innovativeness and Internet usage). Also, we suggest several research propositions on online product transformation. The implications for marketing strategies of experience goods and furher research direction are suggested.

최근 인터넷을 통한 제품구매가 점차 다양화되고 있음에도 불구하고 전통적인 오프라인과 비교해 상대적으로 인터넷을 통한 정보탐색과 구매 선호도가 높은 제품유형에 관한 체계적인 이해는 아직 미흡한 실정이다. 본 연구는 제품구매 시 제품에 대한 소비자의 위험지각이 온라인 오프라인, 온-오프라인으로 구분되는 정보탐색유형을 통한 탐색행동에 미치는 영향에 관해 살펴보았다. 특히, 제품유형을 탐색-경험-신뢰재로 구분하여 제품에 대한 위험지각과 정보탐색 사이의 관계가 제품에 대한 지식수준에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지를 실증분석을 통해 밝히고자 하였다. 분석결과, 지식수준이 낮은 경우에는 경험재와 신뢰재에서 위험지각이 높아질수록 온라인-오프라인을 통해 많은 정보를 탐색하는 것으로 나타났으며, 지식수준이 높은 경우에는 탐색재에서 위험지각이 높을수록 온라인을 통해 많은 정보를 탐색하는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 제품관련 업체는 물론 온라인 및 오프라인 유통업체들에게 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

This study aims to analyze the effect of product information quality and source credibility on product arousal in fresh food website. Despite fresh food websites are selling products with various feature, prior studies have focused on consumer behavior for fresh food website characteristics or specific products without considering the feature of the products. Consumers' attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors vary depending on the feature of the product. In other words, depending on the category of product, the decision making process that consumers purchase products can be differ. So, we classify products considering the feature of these products to examine the effect of information quality and source credibility on product arousal into experience goods and search goods. We surveyed 288 consumers having experience of purchase in fresh food website and verified the hypothesis through One-way ANOVA by classifying the information quality and the source credibility as high level and low level. As a result, there was a difference in product arousal according to the product information quality level and the source credibility level for each product category exposed to the fresh food website. In experience goods, source credibility have a more important effect on product arousal than product information quality, and in search goods, product information quality have a more important effect on product arousal than source credibility.

코로나19가 장기화하면서 비대면 모바일 커머스 시장은 더욱더 치열한 경쟁 속에 있으며 기업들은 소비자에게 더 나은 쇼핑 경험을 제공하기 위하여 다각도의 노력을 하고 있다. 하지만 구매 결정에 중요한 역할을 하는 상세페이지는 대부분 비슷한 형태와 구성으로 소비자에게 제공되고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 모바일 상세페이지의 상품 설명 영역의 정보 구성방식 (이미지 중심 vs 텍스트 중심)과 제품 유형 (탐색재 vs 경험재)에 따라 소비자들의 정보 인식이 달라져 제품 태도에 영향을 주는 것을 확인하였다. 즉 정보 탐색이 쉽고 품질 예측이 가능한 탐색재(Search Goods)의 경우는 이미지(Image) 중심 정보 구성 방식에서, 직접 경험하지 않으면 상품의 품질을 예측 불가능한 경험재(Experience Goods)의 경우에는 텍스트(Text) 중심의 정보 구성 방식에서 제품 태도에 더 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 Higgins의 자기조절초점(Self-Regulatory Focus) 이론을 적용하여 소비자의 조절초점 성향에 따라 제품 유형과 정보 구성 방식 간의 일치 효과는 다르게 나타난다는 결과를 확인하였다. 향상초점(Promotion Focus) 성향의 소비자는 제품 유형과 정보 구성 방식 간의 일치 효과가 나타났으며, 예방초점(Prevention Focus) 성향의 소비자는 제품 유형과 정보 구성 방식 간의 일치 효과가 나타나지 않았다. 구체적으로 향상초점 성향의 소비자는 경험재에 대하여 이미지 중심의 정보 구성 방식에서, 탐색재에 대해서는 텍스트 중심의 정보 구성 방식에서 더 긍정적인 제품 태도를 가진다는 결과를 확인하였고, 예방초점 성향의 소비자는 탐색재 및 경험재에 대하여 이미지 중심 또는 텍스트 중심의 정보 구성 방식을 제시하더라도 제품 태도에 영향을 미치지 못하는 것을 확인하였다. 본 연구는 모바일 쇼핑몰 상세페이지 상품 상세 영역에서 정보 구성 방식을 제품 유형과 소비자 성향을 고려하여 소비자에게 제공되어야 할 것이라는 시사점을 갖는다.

This study was designed to provide a better understanding of Korean female Internet users' intention to search for information regarding apparel goods and to shop for these goods. Shopping orientation, familiarity, and prior purchase experience were seen as influencing the intention to use the Internet for information search. An important aspect in the search habits that a consumer adopts in gathering information for their buying decisions was Internet shopping attitude. The objective was to predict apparel shopping in terms of prior Internet shopping experience, familiarity, intention to search information via the Internet, and shopping orientation. Internet shopping attitude, familiarity, prior purchase experience, and intention to use to search information were significant in predicting Internet apparel shopping. The most important determinants which influenced Internet shopping were attitude toward Internet shopping and intention to search. In considering the results of the present study, one should recognize the inherent limitations associated with generalizing these findings beyond the sample and the consumer products examined which in this study were apparel goods. Also this study focused on female computer users only. Therefore, future research should utilize more broadly based samples and refine the instrument to distinguish among different apparel products. This study does provide some information that should be helpful to retailers targeting the women's online apparel market.

본 연구는 제품보증의 유형인 명시적 보증과 묵시적 보증이 소비자의 제품에 대한 태도에 미치는 영향을 제품보증과 관련된 선행연구들을 탐색하여 살펴보았다. 이에 따른 주시험 효과가 제품유형(탐색재 vs 경험재) 및 제조업체의 기업윤리 수준(고윤리 vs 저윤리)에 의해 조절되는지를 상호작용 효과의 차원에서 고찰하였다. 실증분석 결과에 의하면 소비자의 제품에 대한 태도는 제품보증이 명시적일 때가 묵시적일 때보다 높게 나타났다. 그리고 제품보증의 유형에 따른 주시험 효과는 해당 제품이 탐색재일 때보다 경험재일 때가 더 크게 나타났으며, 제조업체의 기업윤리 수준이 높을 때보다 낮게 인식할 때가 더 크게 나타났다. 다만, 이러한 조절효과는 두 가지 종속변수 중 제품태도는 통계적으로 유의한 결과를 보이지 않았고 구매의도에서만 유의한 결과가 나타났다.
