The purpose of this research is to analyze ‘consumer education system in middle school’, whether it is suitably organized to help students make the right decision in their daily life as a rational consumer in this fast changing “the Informational Society”. We divided the consumer education of “the Informational Society” into 4 fields of studies(consumer information technique, decision making on purchasing, consumer financial management, and consumerism) and made specific analysis for this research. The “Technology & Home Economics” textbook which follows ‘The 7th curriculum’ conducted by “Korean Educational Board” Ministry of Education & Human Resources Development for first and second grade in middle school were used for this analysis. The results founded are as follows: first, for the curriculum analysis according to the 4 fields of consumer education, both the first and the second grade students' textbook had consumer information technique as the major portion of the consumer education. Second, as a result of the comparison between the two grade levels showed that the second grade level has higher portion of consumer education in “Home economics & Technology” textbook than the first grade level. Third, the present status of consumer education showed that the first grade level's consumer education was only limited in consumer information technique, but the second grade level's consumer education was ranging evenly throughout the 3 fields of consumer education: consumer information technique, decision making on purchasing and consumerism. These results of this study contribute to the development of an efficient and desirable curriculum for the adolescent' consumer education, specially for school consumer education, in “the Informational Society”.

본 연구의 목적은 소비자정보로서의 유튜브 1인 미디어에 대한 대학생들의 인상적인 경험을 긍정적, 부정적 측면에서 탐색하고, 유용한 소비자정로보서의 1인 미디어의 개선점을 모색하는 것이다. 대학생 44명을 연구대상으로 선정하고 소비 맥락에서의 유튜브 이용 경험에 관한 자료를 결정적 사건기법을 적용하여 수집 및 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 1인 미디어에 대한 긍정적 반응으로는 'C2C 정보력 강화', '소비자 중심적 사용성', '매력적인 정보 크리에이터', '공감대와 동류의식 형성', '신선하고 유희적인 정보'가 도출되었고, 부정적 반응으로는 '유해정보의 확산', '정보 크리에이터에 대한 불신', '과도한 광고와 충동구매 유발', '미디어 중독', '상대적 박탈감'이 도출되었다. 대학생들은 1인 미디어 개선을 위해 '법 정책적 규제 도입', '미디어 리터러시 강화', '소비자 지향적 UI 개선'이 요구된다고 제안하였다. 본 연구는 1인 미디어에 대한 소비자의 인식과 경험을 이해하는 기초자료로 활용될 수 있으며, 소비자 지향적인 1인 미디어의 방향을 제언한다는 점에서 의의를 가진다.

Recently, as information and communication technology is swiftly developed, consumers feel more convenient in making use of as well as access to the banking service. This change must affect consumer's benefit, however, there are rare previous studies and methods for measuring it. Thus, we utilize hedonic price technique to estimate consumer's benefit of electronic banking information. The results indicate that the price elasticity of consumer's communication service expenditure regarding the use of electronic banking information is about 0.057%. That is, users have willingness to pay 57 Won more than current communication fee for acquiring the additional electronic banking information.

This research explores the consumers' experience in retailing channel(offline channel and online channel) using the critical incident technique. This research aims to clarify the common incidents within retailing channels which implies decisive factors over the channels, and to clarify the contrasts between channels to compare advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, the research is designed to collect the consumers' narrative of those who have used both channels in 3 months. Classifications are conducted with other researchers majoring consumer science. The results address how impressive experiences are constructed on each channel in three dimensions: product, information search, and the purchase-service dimension. These results are able to provide implications for offline and online retailers and directions for future research.

In conventional ergonomics, consumer product can be made based on anthropometric data and specific design guideline. However, the product may not satisfy consumers because their emotional preference have not been properly considered in design phase. Therefore, in this study a new chair design process was introduced by which both consumer's emotional need and traditional ergonomic requirement can be satisfied. As a part of the process, the traditional Kansei engineering technique was modified to collect quantitative information of consumer's visual appreciation and physical feedback of various types of chairs. Furthermore, we developed an interface, so called, KADAS(Kamsung Analysis and Design Assistance System), for designers to use the technique in chair design. This software can help designers to understand what should be the most suitable shape in designing items such as seat, back and arm rest, etc. to meet the emotional need of consumers. This software displays the result of modified quantification theory I, and explains how to use the statistics. This study suggested a new approach for ergonomic design incorporated with Kansei Engineering technique. This technique can be also applied to other products by extending the database of KADAS.

In terms of education, type of job and monthly income of respondent, the sample can be categorized as middle-class segment. The data obtained were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling with Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS). The results of this study indicate that the information obtained by consumers significantly and positively affects consumer preferences and consumer awareness of organic vegetables. Then, consumer preferences and consumer awareness significantly and positively affect the interest of consumers to buy organic vegetables. Consumer preference for organic vegetables is still considered quite low.

However, it is hard to find out a systematic technique for the selection of COTS (Commercial Off The Shelf) component in consumer position. Up to date, the major of component quality evaluation is object-oriented metric based evaluation methodology. But this paper present four step process and evaluation criteria based on MCDM (Multiple Criteria Decision Making) technique for optimal COTS component selection in consumer position. Weconsidered funtionality, efficiency, usability based on ISO/IEC 9126 for quality measurement and executed practical analysis about commercial EJB component in internet. This paper show that the proposed selection technique is applicable to optimal COTS component selection.

협업여과 기법은 추천 시스템에서 널리 사용되는 기술이지만, 소비자의 참조그룹을 선정하는 방법에 따라 추천의 정확도가 달라지는 특성을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 콘텐츠 추천의 정확도를 높이기 위하여 소비자의 감성과 소비유형을 참조그룹으로 하여 협업여과기반으로 콘텐츠를 추천하는 기법을 제안한다. 소비자의 감성을 기쁨, 슬픔, 혐오, 행복, 이완 다섯 가지로 구분하고, 소비유형을 저실용/저쾌락, 저실용/고쾌락, 고실용/저쾌락, 고실용/고쾌락 네 가지로 구분하여 콘텐츠 추천 기법의 성능을 분석한 결과, 본 논문에서 제안하는 기법으로 콘텐츠를 추천한 경우가 소비자 감성과 소비유형을 고려하지 않은 전체 참조그룹으로 추천한 경우보다 정확도가 향상됨을 확인하였다.
