Power bloggers have become one of the most important resources of blog service companies, and only those who attract and secure power bloggers will be able to have competitive edge and profitability in blog related businesses. This study examines the effects of technology acceptance factors and economical factors on the loyalty of power bloggers. The analysis results show that the usefulness, power of social influence and enjoyment positively affect the attitude and intention to continuous use. The relationship between the attitude and intention to continuous use is demonstrated as significant. The economical benefit exhibits weakly positive influence on the attitude to blogging, but not on the intention. This indicates that although many power bloggers receive economic benefits through their blogging activities, such economical benefits do not have big impact on their activities and the intention to use. The blog service providers may use the analysis results when developing new blog services. In particular, the usefulness, which is often considered as one of the most important factors in the success of the blogosphere, is found to have less impact than the enjoyment among power bioggers. This is because blog users, especially power bloggers, use the blog not for a specific purpose or for generating a special product; most of them use the blog to satisfy their own personal desires. When developing blog services, therefore, it is important to cater to the users' enjoyment and their psychological compensation. What is surprising is that the effect of the economical factor is not ad significant as one might have expected. This implies that the new blog services that provide profit sharing or advertising revenue sharing may not be as successful as one would have hoped for in maintaining the loyalty of power bloggers.

본 연구는 대형마트를 이용해 본 경험이 있는 일반소비자를 대상으로 2010년 7월 5일부터 8월 31일까지 2개월 동안 설문조사하여 회수한 246명의 유효한 응답지를 표본으로 SPSS 18.0과 AMOS 18.0의 통계 프로그램을 이용하여 경로분석 하였다. 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 대형마트 점포선택기준 중 제품요인, 점포명성, 물리적 환경 등이 고객만족에 유의한 영향을 미침을 발견하였다. 이는 소비자가 점포를 선택하고 평가할 때 상품의 다양한 구색, 구전커뮤니케이션, 점원의 친절성 등의 변수가 점포선택시 중요한 기준으로 작용함을 시사하고 있다. 이는 Berman and Evans(1979), Novak(1977), Ridgway, Bloch and Nelson(1994) 등의 연구를 지지하고 있다. 둘째, 대형마트에 대한 고객만족은 점포애 호도에 유의한 영향을 미침을 발견하였다. 이는 매장 내에서 경험하는 일시적인 기분 상태가 쇼핑에 만족감을 주고 이는 다시 쇼핑하고자 하는 의사에 유의한 영향을 미친다는 Dawson, Bloch and Ridgway(1990)의 연구, 지각된 긍정적 감정이 매장에 대한 태도를 거쳐 재방문 의사에 영향을 미친다는 유창조와 김상희(1997)의 연구를 지지하고 있다. 셋째, 소비자 감정을 기쁨, 각성, 지배 등 3가지로 분류하고 각 감정에 따라 점포선택기준과 고객만족의 영향 관계의 차이에 대한 조절효과를 분석한 결과 유의한 영향을 일부분 미치고 있음을 발견하였다. 이는 점포속성, 소비자 구매행동 등에 소비자 감정의 매개역할이 존재하기 때문에 조절효과를 기대할 수 있다고 주장한 Donovan and Rossiter(1982), 박성연과 배현경(2006) 등의 연구, 그리고 소비자가 점포 내에서 경험하는 좋음 그리고 싫음과 같은 감정이 소비자에게 점포충성도를 증가시키기 때문에 감정과 점포에 대한 관계가 매우 높다고 주장한 Zimmer and Golden(1988)의 연구와 일부분 일치한다. 특히, 부대시설은 점포선택기준이 고객만족에 미치는 영향에 대해 기쁨, 각성, 지배 등 소비자 감정에 체계적이고 유의한 조절효과가 있음을 발견하였다.

본 연구에서는 대전지역 대학생과 대학원생들을 대상으로 치킨 전문점의 선택속성 중요도가 고객만족 및 고객충성도에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 알아보고자 하였다. 선택속성 중요도-만족도간 IPA 분석 결과, 고객이 인지하는 중요도와 만족도가 모두 높게 나타난 항목들로는 '치킨의 맛과 질적 수준 '적당한 양', '신선한 재료 사용' 상품성 요인들로 나타나 현재의 좋은 상태를 계속 유지할 필요가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 고객들이 인지하는 중요도는 높으나 그 만족도가 낮게 나타난 항목들로는 '적절한 가격', '빠른 배달서비스'의 확신성 요인과 '종업원의 친절성'으로 나타나 이 항목들에 대한 개선이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 가설 검증 결과 선택속성 요인들 중 '치킨과 함께 제공되는 사이드 음식', '깔끔하고 편리한 포장용기 사용', '쿠폰의 제공' 등의 부가서비스 요인이 고객만족과 고객충성도에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 치킨 전문점 경영자들은 고객과 함께 만족할 수 있는 적절한 가격을 측정할 필요가 있으며, 품질과 직접적인 연관이 있는 배달 시간을 단축시키기 위한 효율적인 방안을 마련하여야 할 것이다. 또한 지속적인 교육 및 훈련을 통한 서비스 개선과 함께 차별화된 부가서비스를 제공한다면 고객만족을 통한 고객의 재이용을 유도할 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.

Purpose - The objective of this study is to verify whether there are differences between Korean and Chinese consumers in the importance of the attributes such as shopping value and loyalty in social commerce. With the purpose of finding out these differences, the following questions are set up as research questions. First, will there be a difference between Korea and China in the importance of attributes of social commerce? Second, will there be a difference between Korean and Chinese consumers in shopping value? Third, will there be a difference between Korean and Chinese consumers in their loyalty? Research design, data, and methodology - The researchers collected data through self-administered questionnaires from Korean and Chinese consumers who had used social commerce within the past six months before answering the questionnaire. First, for social commerce users in Korea, comprising male and female university students in Chungcheong, a questionnaire was circulated. For social commerce users in China, university students within Beijing were surveyed. Responses to 336 questionnaires were used, excluding those with no answers or unreliable answers. Data coding and data cleaning were used. SPSS 18.0 was used. First, exploratory factor analysis is done to verify the validity of testing tools, and Cronbach's α coefficient is used to verify credibility. For factor analysis, the Varimax method is used. To verify the internal consistency reliability of each factor, the Cronbach's α coefficient is used to verify the credibility. Second, a T-test is done to verify differences between Korean and Chinese consumers for the importance of attributes. Third, ANOVA (Analysis of variance) is done to verify differences between Korean and Chinese consumers in shopping value and loyalty. Results - When Korean and Chinese consumers use social commerce, first, the importance of the attributes of social commerce is affected by four factors; playfulness and economic factors are more important to Korean consumers than Chinese consumers. As for informativeness factors, including product information and quality, and buyer comments, there was no confirmed difference between Korean and Chinese consumers. The convenience factor is more important to Chinese consumers than Korean consumers. Second, the factors affecting shopping value for Korean and Chinese consumers were hedonic shopping value and rational shopping value. To see the difference between Korean and Chinese consumers in shopping value factors, a t-test is conducted. As a result, in the rational shopping value factors of social commerce, Korean consumers scored higher than did Chinese consumers. These results were verified to be meaningful through statistics. In the hedonic shopping value factor of social commerce, Korean consumers scored higher than Chinese consumers. These results showed a significant difference. Third, loyalty in social commerce is higher for Chinese consumers than for Korean consumers. However, there is no difference in loyalty depending on sex. Conclusions - These results will hopefully be valuable and used in the future by Korean companies that wish to enter the Chinese social commerce market.
