A portion of several previous studies has been that when a product is to be presented as a gift it entaials a greater expenditure of time and money than when the same product is to be used by the buyer. While this might suggest that gift-giving is an especially involving purchasing sitution, the research to date has not been consistent in its evidence to support this view. One reason for this inconsistency in findings may be suggested that different gift-giving situations show considerably different levels of givers' task involvement. The present study designs to gain some descreptive understanding of the clothing gift-giving, and to test the relationship between varibles related to clothing gift-giving and task involvement of clothing gift-giving through different gift-giving senarios. Data (N=463) were collected via a questionnaire from housewives living in Pusan, and were analyzed by factor analysis, t-test, and cannonical analysis. Results support that differences in task involvement of clothing gift -giving cause different consumer behaviors in relation to clothing gift-giving.

Technologies such as television shopping channels and the internet expand consumers' impulse purchasing opportunities. The interest in national differences of consumer behavior was growing and highlighted the importance of understanding the national context of consumer behavior in an increasing globalized marketplace. The purposes of this study were to examine the effects of fashion involvement and hedonic consumption on impulse buying for Korean and American young consumers, and to compare the differences between two groups. A questionnaire was developed from literatures reviewed. Data were obtained from students attending universities in Korea(N=413) and the U.S.(N=290). Using structural equation modeling, the results indicated that the proposed model of this study was appropriate to explain the effects of fashion involvement and hedonic consumption on impulse buying for Korean and American young consumers. The model showed that fashion involvement and hedonic consumption played important roles in triggering impulse buying for two groups. In addition, American consumers were more likely to influence fashion involvement and hedonic consumption on impulse buying than Korean consumers. The results provided some insights into globalized retail marketing theory supporting the national aspects of impulse buying. Future research and managerial implications are addressed.

With increasing concerns about environmental issues that can result from apparel and textile disposal, the recycling methods for discarded fashion products have gained significant attention. As the influential drivers of consumer purchasing and consuming behaviors, fashion innovativeness and fashion involvement can play important roles in forming consumer attitudes toward apparel recycling. The purpose of this study was to (1) investigate consumer attitudes toward three different methods of apparel recycling including resale, reform, and donation, (2) examine the effects of fashion innovativeness and fashion involvement on consumers' apparel recycling attitudes, and (3) identify gender difference in the relationships among fashion innovativeness, fashion involvement, and recycling attitudes. Using a web-based survey, data were collected from 281 Korean consumers who were in their 20s and 30s. Overall, both male and female consumers revealed the most favorable attitudes toward apparel recycling through donation, followed by reform, and resale. The findings suggest that consumer traits, such as fashion innovativeness and fashion involvement, are important factors predicting male consumers' apparel recycling behaviors. Those male consumers who perceive fashion as important were more interested in apparel recycling than those males who put low importance on fashion. Male fashion innovators were less likely to recycle their unused and old apparel items. Further studies identifying antecedents of female consumers' attitudes toward apparel recycling are warranted.

Time-limited promotions have become a popular strategy across various product categories including fashion mobile platforms. While consumer feel content and satisfied when they get this , those who miss the opportunity may develop negative feelings and tend to give up on additional price discounts. This phenomenon, known as inaction inertia, has been a crucial subject of consumer behavior research. However, the underlying mechanism within the context of fashion consumption has yet to be discussed. This study investigated whether consumers show inaction inertia when purchasing fashion products and whether involvement moderates product purchases in inaction inertia situations. Hypotheses were tested through an online survey with 336 Korean participants based on fictitious purchase scenarios. In the results, the hypothesized negative influence of inaction inertia on purchase intention for fashion products was statistically confirmed. Furthermore, the hypothesized moderation effect of involvement in the mechanism was confirmed - only within the high (vs. low) age group. To explain, the negative effect of inaction inertia significantly decreases among older consumers of high (vs. low) involvement levels. We contributed to the related academic flow by performing an experimental study on inaction inertia, which had relatively little empirical research compared to the influence confirmed in practice so far. We also provided a novel idea by demonstrating that the moderating effect of product involvement differs depending on the age group.

기업 서비스(business services)는 제조업이나 서비스업에 제공되는 산업재적 성격의 서비스로서 서비스 산업에서 매우 빠르게 성장하는 동시에 높은 비중을 차지하고 있다. 이러한 중요성에도 불구하고 기업 서비스 분야 연구는 상대적으로 소흘히 다루어져 왔다. Matthyssens and Vandenbempt(1998)는 기존의 서비스 연구 중에서 산업재 서비스의 관리 및 마케팅 연구는 상대적으로 비중이 적다고 하였고, Morris and Davis(1992)와 Moore and Schlegelmilch(1994) 역시 산업재 서비스 마케팅 연구의 부족과 이 분야의 보다 많은 관심과 연구의 필요성을 지적하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 한국 기업을 대상으로 기업 서비스 소싱 유형 및 전략에 관하여 실증적으로 고찰하였다. 연구 결과를 요약하면, 공급자 충성도가 관여도에 관계없이 공급자 선정 결정에 영향을 미치지 못하고 있으며, 가격 요인의 영향력이 기대와는 달리 저관여 구매상황에서 미미하였다.

In order to deal with consumer's demand changes in market condition, it is necessary to have a study on the consumer behavior to promote seafood consumption. The objective of this study is to examine the factors that have influences on consumer involvement of seafood. It is also aim to examine how the situation of seafood factors influences the consumer's behavior in purchasing and consuming the seafood. In this study, I have conducted a survey by using Busan housewives as random sampling. To examine this variable, situation factors that I used if the factor analysis. I also performed a multiple regression analysis to understand how the situation factors influenced the consumer's emotion and their satisfaction within the level of involvement. The result showed that consumer involvement seafood is created by not only interests and preferences, but also knowledge, perceived risk and profits. The seafood situation factors are divided into purchase situation, consumption situation and communication situation: purchase situation includes store factor, while consumption situation includes health factor and cooking-motive factor and communication situation includes information factor. Results of examining whether there are differences in the involvement explains that the involvement is different according to the level and it is divided into 2 groups. The first groups is the high-involvement group that shows preferences and interests, perceived risk and profits. Another group is the low-involvement group that shows preferences and interests, knowledge and profits. The result on examining whether situation sectors have influences on the involvement shows that high-involvement group is only affected by store factor in purchase situation and low-involvement group is only affected by information factor in communication situation.

복합원산지제품 수용에 관한 지금까지의 많은 연구들이 다양한 시사점들을 제시해옴으로써 학문적인 기여를 해왔지만, 소비자의 구매성향에 따라 태도의 변화를 살펴본 연구는 매우 드물게 진행되어왔다. 본 연구는 기존 연구의 한계점을 보완하고자, 소비자의 구매성향을 합리적 소비성향, 브랜드 추구성향, 타인의식 소비성향으로 분류하여 고관여 복합원산지제품에 대한 수용과정이 어떻게 나타나는지를 파악해보고자 하였다. 또한 기존 연구의 측정방법을 보완하기 위하여 본 연구는 제품에 대한 복합원산지정보가 노출되기 전후의 상황을 구분함으로써, 소비자들의 수용행동을 보다 정교하게 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 266명의 소비자들을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 구조방정식모형 분석을 통해 통계분석을 실시하였다. 연구모형의 검증결과, 소비자의 구매성향 가운데 타인의식 소비성향은 복합원산지제품의 순응과 반감에 모두 유의미한 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 아울러, 복합원산지제품에 대한 반감수준은 순응수준보다 더욱 강력한 파급효과를 지닌다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 연구결과를 바탕으로 본 연구는 복합원산지제품 가운데 고관여제품을 판매하는 기업들을 대상으로 실무적으로 유용한 시사점을 제시하고자 하였다.
