  • Purpose - This study investigated the effects of consumers' selection criteria for environment-friendly agricultural products on purchase intention and the effects of consumers' attitudes and the reliability of environment-friendly agricultural products on purchase intention by using the theory of planned behavior. Subjective norms of variables of behavioral intention, attitudes toward behavior and control of the behavior were used to create selection criteria, consumers' attitudes and reliability of environment-friendly agricultural products. The study investigated the effects of consumers' selection criteria, attitudes, and reliability of environment-friendly agricultural products on purchase intention constructing models and hypotheses of mediation and moderation between selection criteria for agricultural products and purchase intention by consumers' attitudes and reliability. Research design, data, and methodology - The findings were as follows: first, consumers' selection criteria for environment-friendly agricultural products had a significantly affirmative influence upon purchase intention. Health was the most important factor of selection criteria convenience was more important than quality and familiarity was next. Consumers' attitudes and trust had a significant influence on purchase intention. Second, testing showed that consumers' attitude and trust partially mediated selection criteria: sub-factors and purchase intention were important in selection criteria. Third, testing showed that consumers' attitude and trust had a significant moderation effect between selection criteria and purchase intention. In the test of the moderation effect between sub-factors of selection criteria and purchase intention, consumers' attitude had a significantly positive influence upon health, convenience, and familiarity, and had no significant influence upon quality and purchase intention. Consumers' trust had no significant influence upon health, convenience, and quality. Results - The study provided several theoretical implications: first, an empirical analysis was undertaken with selection criteria for environmental-friendly agricultural products, consumers' attitude, and trust to investigate subjective norms, attitude toward behavior and control of behavior based on the theory of planned behavior. Second, this study investigated both the mediation effect and moderation effect of consumers' subjective norms on attitudes toward behavior, the mediating effects of perceived behavior control and changes of behavioral intention depending upon size and direction of the variables. This study also provided several practical implications. Conclusions - First, consumption of environment-friendly agricultural products did not increase despite rapid increase of production therefore, promotion of consumption and distribution was needed considering the supply and demand of the products. Second, definite standards for selection criteria were suggested to build up consumers' attitude and trust. Consumers' attitude could be improved by factors including the brand of environment-friendly agricultural products, consistent quality, solving physiological problems caused by adverse effects of environmental problems, supplementary approaches, treatment of adverse effects by eating food, and the development and supply of products in accordance with changes of lifestyle. Finally, consumers' demand for sub-factors of selection criteria could be much higher than health, convenience, and quality of the products. Therefore, a process was needed that could continuously check consumers' needs for the products. Limitations were described at the end of the study.

  • 본 연구는 광양만권 친환경농산물의 물류센터 입지를 선정하기 위한 연구이며, AHP기법을 적용하여 입지선정요소를 검토하고, 객관적이고 정량화된 결정을 하기 위해 전문가 면담 및 설문지 조사를 통해서 요인계층화를 하였다. 광양만권 친환경농산물의 물류센터를 위한 입지요인의 계층화 과정은 크게 자연적요인, 경제적요인, 사회적요인, 유통 효율성, 국토이용관리계획 등으로 대분류하고, 대분류된 요인들을 다시 세부적으로 각각 3개의 요인으로 소분류하였다. 5가지 대분류를 쌍대 비교하여 분석한 결과, 경제적요인의 가중치가 가장 높았으며, 소분류된 요인들 중에는 물동량의 용이성, 상위계획과 적합성, 기후, 토지가격, 제한법규 등이 비교우위의 평가기준들로 나타났다. 이러한 과정을 통해 최종후보지의 우선순위가 결정되었으며, 자연적 요소 및 경제적 요소에서는 율촌2산단 지역의 가중치가 가장 높았고, 사회적 요소, 유통 효율성, 국토이용관리계획 등은 광양황금산단 지역의 가중치가 가장 높았다. 최종 분석결과, 광양만권의 친환경농산물 물류센터의 입지선정 최종후보지는 광양황금산단 지역이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났다.
