The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between male consumers' clothing shopping orientation and sex role identity. Since shopping, especially clothing shopping has been traditionally considered a female job, it was expected that male consumers' sex role identity would influence how they approach the task of clothing shopping. Data were collected through an Internet survey firm from men aged between 20 and 40 years(N=199). The major results are as follows: 1. Based on the six clothing shopping orientation factors identified tv factor analysis, the respondents were categorized into 5 distinct groups: Self-Directed Shoppers, Planners, Brand-Oriented Shoppers, Convenience Shoppers, and Impulsive High-Involvers. 2. Five sex role factors were identified by factor analysis: two masculinity factors (strong and reticent) and three femininity factors(gentle, meticulous, and affable). Among these factors, 'gentle' was considered the most ideal, followed in order by 'strong,' 'meticdous,' 'affable,' and 'reticent.' 3. The results of MANOVA showed that the clothing shopping orientation groups statistically differed in their perceived sex role identity as well as in their ideal sex role identity. Overall, Self-Directed Shoppers and Impulsive High-Involvers scored higher in both perceived masculinity and femininity than the other groups. Convenience Shoppers and Planners were high in femininity but low in masculinity. The Brand-Oriented Shoppers were low in both masculinity and femininity. The results indicate that Korean males who are in their 20s and 30s consider androgyny as a desirable state. In addition, those who are high in androgyny are more likely to be highly involved in clothing shopping.

본 논문은 오프라인 쇼핑을 대체하는 새로운 유통 채널로서 뚜렷한 비중을 차지하고 있는 인터넷 및 TV 홈쇼핑에 대한 소비자들의 선택 결정 요인을 표본선택오차 문제를 고려한 헥킷 모형을 이용하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 연령이 낮을수록, 그리고 인터넷 경력, 인터넷 이용 시간, 보유 컴퓨터의 수 등에 있어서 인터넷 쇼핑 채널의 이용에 유리한 환경에 있을수록 인터넷 쇼핑에 대한 상대적 구매비중으로 측정한 인터넷 쇼핑에 대한 선호도가 높게 나타나고 있다. 반면에 성별이나 기혼여부 등 다른 인구통계학적 특성은 채널 간 구매비중에 유의한 영향을 미치고 있지 못하며, TV 시청시간이나 케이블 TV 서비스 타입 등 TV 홈쇼핑 이용 환경과 관련된 변수들 역시 별다른 유의한 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 거래비용 절감의 유인이 큰 쇼핑빈도가 높은 구매자들일 수록 인터넷 쇼핑 채널을 TV홈쇼핑에 비해 상대적으로 많이 이용하는 것으로 나타났다. 채널 별 특성과 관련해서는 인터넷 쇼핑 채널이 TV 홈쇼핑 채널에 비해 편리하고, 신뢰할만하며, 신속하고, 다양하다는 구매자들의 인식이 인터넷 쇼핑 채널의 상대적 구매비중에 긍정적 영향을 주는 것으로 나타나고 있다. 반면에 인터넷 및 TV 홈쇼핑 유통 채널간의 가격 수준에 대한 인식은 이러한 상대적 구매비중에 별 다른 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

Apparel has been generally considered to be high involvement merchandise. But, there are many kinds of merchandises with various attributes within the apparel category. Among apparel merchandises, innerwears have been known to be relatively low-involved and convenience products. Lately, many brands with brand name, high quality, and fashionability were launched, and innerwear consumers became more sophisticated and individualized. Therefore, investigating the shopping orientations and behavious of innerwear consumers is needed. Consumers perceived the images and attributes of competing brands to be similar. So, those brands in competition need to establish differentiation strategy. Generally, the innerwear shopping orientation of consumers was passive and low-involved. But, they could be segmented into apathetic group, brand oriented/loyal group, and rational/economic purchaser group. These groups showed significant differences in demographic characteristics, store patronage, and information sources of innerwear. Therefore, there are consumer groups with various shopping orientations and purchasing behaviors in the innerwear market.
