인터넷 사용자들의 증가와 여러 기기들의 발달에 따라 인터넷 사용자들은 새로운 형태의 커뮤니케이션을 스스로 발전시킬 수 있었고, 이러한 흐름이 최근 UCC의 폭발적인 증가로 이어졌다. 하지만 최근까지 사용자들이 왜 자신이 스스로 노력을 들여서 UCC를 공유하는 지에 대한 명확한 설명은 부재한 상황이다. UCC공유동기는 기존에 지속적으로 연구되어 왔던 가상커뮤니티나 온라인구전활동의 참여동기를 상당부분 가지고 있으나 이들로 설명할 수 없는 새로운 참여동기를 포함하고 있는 것으로 보여진다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 UCC 공유 동기를 파악하기 위해 UCC 공유 경험이 있는 사람들을 대상으로 설문을 수행하였고, 요인분석을 통해 UCC공유동기가 '자가 창조의 즐거움', '커뮤니티에 대한 책임감', '자아표현 욕구', '타인과의 교제', '보상'의 동기로 요인화될 수 있음을 밝혀냈다. 그리고 이들 동기가 UCC 공유 의도에 어떤 영향을 주는지를 알아보았다. UCC공유의도를 양적인 측면과 질적인 측면으로 나누어, 앞에서 요인화 된 5가지 UCC동기가 각각에 어떤 영향을 주는지를 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 UCC를 공유하는 사용자들을 좀 더 이해할 수 있을 것이고, UCC를 비즈니스모델로 하는 온라인기업들에게 UCC참여 및 양질의 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 가이드를 제시할 수 있을 것이다.

동영상 제작 기술 및 네트워크 기술의 발전 그리고, 다양한 미디어의 출현과 더불어 네티즌의 창의적이고, 능동적인 성향이 어우러지면서 동영상 User Created Contents(UCC) 시장이 커지고 있다. 이에 동영상 UCC 전문 업체들은 시장을 주도하기 위해 치열한 기술 경쟁을 벌이고 있으나, 높은 서비스 유지비용과 광고 수입 의존도의 한계를 넘지 못하면서 파산하는 업체들이 속출하고 있다. 위와 같은 상황에서 본 연구는 동영상 UCC 활성화를 저해하는 요인 및 개선 방안들을 설문하고 이를 해석하여 동영상 UCC 발전 방향 및 활성화 방안을 제시하는데 있다. 이를 위해 본 논문은 직접 동영상 UCC업체에 종사하는 사람들을 대상으로 설문 조사를 하였으며, 배포조사법을 이용하여 설문조사 표본 133명을 대상으로 빈도분석을 이용하여 실시하였다. 분석 결과 동영상 UCC를 활성화하기 위해서는 동영상 UCC를 이용하는 이용자, 기업, 국가가 하나가 되어 의식, 기술, 정책이 변화 될 수 있도록 더욱 더 노력해야 동영상 UCC는 활성화 될 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, we identified factors that affect the usage of UCC, which is becoming increasingly popular in our society and throughout the globe. Four hypotheses were tested using a new integrative model of UCC usage, which is built up by incorporating the TAM and the PA(pleasure-arousal)model. We analyzed the data collected in our survey of 258 individual UCC users during the period from Oct 2006 to Dec 2006. We found that pleasure and arousal showed a strong significant effect on individual's UCC usage, supporting the findings of the exiting research on TAM. To be specific, arousal had an effect on the UCC usage through its effect on pleasure and self efficacy. Pleasure affected the UCC usage in two ways: First, pleasure affected UCC usage through increasing the ease of UCC service. At the same time, pleasure had a direct effect on the UCC usage. Contrary to what the prior research on technology acceptance suggested, we found ease of use and social influence had no significant effect on individual’s UCC usage. We suggest that this finding of no effect of ease of use and social influence has an important implication in understanding the UCC usage. That is, the UCC usage may be motivated by different factors than those which inspire other technology acceptance behavior. The UCC users may be engaging in a creative activity enjoying the sheer pleasure of creating UCC, self expression, and sharing what they want to tell. Intrinsic motivation rather than extrinsic motivation seems to click this new type of technology users.

Today, various on-line services based on the Internet have been provided, and recently UCC(user created contents) have become more popular based on web 2.0. However researches on UCC prevailing among internet users have not been performed much yet. Therefore, we have conducted an empirical study to investigate the structural relationships among UCC characteristics, perceived usefulness, flow and intention to use in this study. After reviewing the related works we have derived three latent variables - system, contents, and user characteristics - as UCC characteristics. Structural Equation Model(SEM) has been used to analyze the structural relationships among characteristics of UCC, perceived usefulness, flow and intention to use. Managerial implications are also suggested for managing the UCC services in conclusion.
