The mobile Internet (M-Internet) service is a form of subscription-based information Systems (IS) services in which usage continuance is essential for the eventual success of the service providers. However, previous research on IS continuance has focused mainly on the technology user aspects despite the fact that the user plays a dual role of being a technology user and service consumer in many IS usage contexts. This study thus aims to examine IS continuance based on the theoretical foundation of dedication-based and constraint-based customer relationship development in the context of M-Internet service. Four customer relationship development factors (satisfaction, perceived value, familiarity, and switching costs) are identified and tested on how they affect continuance intention from a survey conducted on M-Internet service users. Then, the results of this study are discussed along with its limitations and implications.

SNS는 인터넷 상에서 공통의 관심사를 지니고 있는 사용자들 간의 관계형성을 지원하고, 이렇게 형성된 지인관계를 바탕으로 인맥관리, 정보 및 컨텐츠 공유 등 다양한 활동을 할 수 있도록 지원하는 서비스를 말한다. 본 연구의 목적은 SNS에서 지속적인 사용 의도에 영향을 미치는 요인을 파악하는 것이다. 이를 위해 정보시스템 사후-수용 모델과 성공모델을 이용하여 연구 모형을 설정하여 275명의 대학생들을 대상으로 실증분석하였다. 그 결과는 첫째, 만족과 인지된 유용성이 지속적 사용 의도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 기대일치, 시스템 품질, 정보 품질, 인지된 유용성은 만족에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 기대일치는 인지된 유용성에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 시스템 품질과 정보 품질은 기대일치에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로, 지속적 사용 의도에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 요인은 만족으로 나타났고, 만족에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것은 인지된 유용성이었다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the structural relationship among factors affecting learning engagement, satisfaction, continuance intention in China-MOOC. For this study, data were collected from 334 students who were taking MOOC classes. and structural equation model ling analyses were employed to examine the causal relationships among variables. From the results of this study, First, self-regulated learning and interaction significantly affected learning engagement. Second, interaction had direct effects on satisfaction. Third, satisfaction significantly affect continuance intention. Furthermore, satisfaction mediated relationships between interaction and continuance intention. These results imply that self-regulated learning, interaction, learning engagement should be considered for designing and implementing China-MOOC learning. Further implication are discussed in the study.

Recently, many internet users are using mobile music service. In this paper, we aim to examine the effects of system quality factors and relation quality factors on continuance intention in the context of mobile music service. In order to analyze the antecedents of continuance intention, we introduced independent variables such as ease of use, stability, trust, involvement and unity. We also consider customer value and customer satisfaction as mediators. For empirical analysis, we surveyed 240 users of mobile music service. We conduct PLS (Partial Least Square) analysis for SEM (Structural Equation Modeling). As a result, 8 of proposed 12 hypotheses were accepted. Especially, system quality, trust and unity show positive influence on customer satisfaction significantly. Involvement and unity are positively related to customer value. Customer value and customer satisfaction show positive influence on continuance intention significantly. The results of this research can be useful guidelines for mobile music service users and providers.

Chatbot services have become an essential communication tool for interacting with consumers in e-commerce. To understand consumer behavior in the context of chatbot services, we apply the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to analyze continuance intention to use and additional predictors to explain behavioral intention. An analysis of data collected from 300 digital shopping users who had experienced chatbot services revealed that an extended TPB model holds for the continuous use of chatbot services, driven by both interaction and information quality. Accordingly, these ndings provide a better understanding of consumer behavior toward chatbot services and valuable insights into digital customer relationship management.

Purpose Recently the usage of Mobile Instant Messenger(MIM) has been increased all over the world. With the development of Mobile Internet, a large amount of mobile application came into being, such as WeChat, the most popular MIM now in China. It has a huge number of registered users, but just only half of them are the "active users". This study intends to examine what factors affect MIM user's continuance intention and actual usage behavior. Design/Methodology/Approach Based on the framework of Perception/Emotion-Behavior and the extended ECM-ISC (Expectation Confirmation Model of IS Continuance), this research introduced some unique variables to a user satisfaction model focusing on perceived/emotional factors in WeChat. In this model, perceived/emotional factors have been divided into enabler factors and inhibitor factors to analyze the effect on continuance intention and actual usage behavior. Also, the moderate effect of the habits was discussed. An online questionnaire survey of 203 WeChat users was conducted and the empirical validation was employed to test the research model. Findings From the empirical results, perceived usefulness, expectation confirmation, and needs for affiliation significantly affected satisfaction. Also, satisfaction influenced continuance intention which led to actual usage behavior. We found that the habit moderates the relationship between satisfaction and continuance intention.

사회네트워킹 사이트(SNS)의 성공은 많은 요소에 의존한다. SNS의 지속적인 이용은 그 중 하나이다. 특히, 이용자가 손쉽게 다른 서비스로 전환할 수 있는 웹 환경에서는 기존 이용자들을 관리하는데 많은 시간과 노력이 소요된다. 이런 점에서, SNS의 지속적인 이용 없이는 SNS를 기반으로 하는 서비스는 가치창출에 실패하게 될 것이다. 본 연구는 SNS 이용자 지속의도에 영향을 미치는 요인들을 발굴하는데 목적이 있다. 초기단계로서, 관련 문헌연구를 통해서 여섯 개의 영향요인을 발굴하였다. 이들은 평판도, 관계적 가치, 지식품질, 적합성, 개인화, 만족도 이다. 미국 대학 및 대학원생을 대상으로 웹 설문조사를 수행하여 총 325개의 활용 가능한 데이터를 수집하였다. 신뢰도 검사와 두 차례의 탐험적 요인분석을 수행하여 다섯 개의 최종 영향요인을 발굴하였다. 영향요인들과 지속의도의 관계를 밝히기 위해서 회귀분석을 또한 수행하였다. 만족도가 가장 유효한 요인이었으며 지식품질과 관계적 가치도 유효한 요인이었다. 그러나 평판도와 개인화는 지속의도에 유효한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 대신에 이들의 만족도에 대한 영향은 유효하였다.
