본 연구에서는 성인 남녀 소비자를 대상으로 감성적 소비성향과 패션소재의 감성요소(색채 톤, 무늬, 질감이미지)에 대한 선호도를 조사하여 인구 통계적 특성에 따른 차이를 분석하고, 감성적 소비성향과 패션소재의 감성요소 선호도의 관련성을 분석하였다. 감성적 소비성향을 요인분석한 결과, 과시적 소비성향, 개성적 소비성향, 심미적 소비성향, 쾌락적 소비성향 등 4요인으로 분류되었다. 조사대상자들은 심미적 소비성향, 개성적 소비성향, 상징적 소비성향의 순으로 중요시하였는데, 감성적 소비성향은 인구 통계적 특성에 따라 부분적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다. 패션소재의 감성요소에 대한 선호도를 인구 통계적 특성에 따른 차이를 분석한 결과, 여성이 남성보다 다양한 색채 톤을 선호하였고 밝은 색채 톤에 대한 선호도는 성과 직업에서 유의한 차이를 나타내었으며, 플로럴 무늬에 대한 선호도는 성, 연령, 학력, 직업, 결혼여부 등에 따라 유의한 차이를 보였다. 또한 패션소재의 질감이미지 선호도는 학력을 제외한 인구 통계적 특성에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 한편, 성인 남녀 소비자의 감성적 소비성향과 감성요소 선호도 요인 간에는 대다수 유의한 상관이 있음을 알 수 있었다.

According to the consumption propensity, male golfers were classified into three groups: ostentatious perfection, practical, common group. Female golfer were classified into three groups: practical, common, ostentatious perfection group. Groups of men golfers showed significant differences in the factors of ostentation, fashion and aesthetic appreciation of the consumption propensity. Groups of women golfers, however, showed significant differences in the factors of ostentation and practicality of the consumption propensity.

First, the impact of innovativeness on fashion consumption propensity was explored. It was found that the innovativeness has impact on ostentation-seeking propensity and personality-seeking propensity. The impact of innovativeness on the clothing satisfaction was explored. It was found that the innovativeness has negative impacts on tangible value satisfaction and intangible value satisfaction. Second, it was found that if an innovative consumer has less ostentation-seeking propensity and less personality-seeking propensity, the innovative consumer gets more satisfaction from tangible value of clothes. On the other hand, if an innovative consumer has less ostentation-seeking propensity, the innovative consumer gets more satisfaction from intangible value of clothes. Third, the differences in consumer innovativeness, fashion consumption propensity and satisfaction dependent on the age of consumers were explored. In innovativeness and fashion consumption propensity, fashion-seeking propensity and personality-seeking propensity had significant differences between different age groups. In satisfaction, tangible value satisfaction had significant difference between different age groups.
