Due to the lack of information, medical tourists are regarded to be at high risk. Prior medical tourism research has found that various types of perceived risks have a significant impact on medical tourists' purchase behavior. Even though medical tourism is predicted to increase, there is a lack of behavioral research to explain how perceived risks affect medical tourists' purchase behavior. In the context of Korean medical tourism, this study attempts to evaluate the effects of multi-level (macro, organizational, and personal) factors on medical tourists' perceived risks and purchase intentions. A conceptual model and hypotheses were built and empirically validated to investigate links between multi-level characteristics, perceived risks, and purchasing intentions. The data for this study was collected from Chinese tourists using a questionnaire. The impact of cognitive country image, affective country image, and medical service quality on fundamental risk is confirmed by statistical testing. Surprisingly, expectancy discrepancy risk is influenced only by cognitive country image and information search capabilities. Both fundamental and expectation discrepancy risks lower medical tourists' purchase intentions. The findings of this study show that a multi-level strategy is required to investigate the links between perceived risks and medical tourism purchasing intentions based on macro, organizational, and personal factors.

대체로 소비자들은 어느 국가에서 제조된 제품인가에 관련하여 제각기 다른 국가이미지와 소비형태를 보인다. 소비자 행동의 본질은 제품의 특징에서 나오는 진실보다는 오히려 소비자 마음속에 있는 정신적 이미지인 것이다. 본 연구는 이러한 국가이미지가 실제 소비자들에게 제품을 선택할 때 얼마나 중요한 영향을 끼치는 가를 한국과 미국의 소비자를 대상으로 북미자유협정 체결 후 멕시코제품을 통하여 조사하였다. 연구의 결과는 멕시코산 제품 구입에 대한 한미 소비자들의 태도가 구조방정식 모형 테스트 결과 차이가 있음을 보여준다.

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to advance the understanding of the relationship between host country image and cultural intelligence (CQ) on the attractiveness of expatriate destinations. Specifically, this study compares the different impacts of CQ on the relationship between host country image and subsidiary attractiveness by comparing a US-based subsidiary and a Vietnam-based one. Research design and methodology - A total of 445 Korean full-time workers responded through an online survey. The survey randomly showed the participants one of two conditions for a potential expatriate location. The participants were asked to answer a series of questions on the organizational attractiveness of the subsidiaries from the perspective of an expatriate candidate and respond to a series of questions on individual CQ. Results - Through a two-way ANOVA test, the results reveal that Korean expatriate candidates perceive that a Vietnam-based subsidiary is a less attractive destination for international assignment when compared to a US-based subsidiary. In addition, the positive moderating effect of cultural intelligence on the relationship between the host location and the subsidiary's attractiveness is stronger when Vietnam, rather than the US, is the assignment location. Conclusions - Drawing upon AUM theory, this study confirmed that unfavorable country image affects subsidiaries' attractiveness for expatriate candidates, due to anxiety. However, this study showed the role of employees' CQ to mitigate these challenges. This study suggests providing information on positive conditions of expatriate locations and building systematic process for enhancing individual CQ for organizations.

지방자치단체의 역할이 커지면서 도시마케팅에 대한 관심이 증대하고 있는 시점에서 본 연구는 대구시를 중심으로 도시이미지를 측정하고 분석하였다. 국가이미지의 개념을 응용한 본 연구는 2 단계로 구성되었다. 연구 1에서 대구와 서울지역의 대학생들을 대상으로 대구시 및 서울시의 도시이미지를 측정하여 도시이미지 차원을 도출하고 각 도시 이미지를 비교하였다. 연구 2에서는 대구 경북과 서울 경기 지역민들을 대상으로 대구시의 도시이미지 차원을 검정하고 거주지역과 인구통계적 특성에 따라 차이가 있는지 분석하였다. 연구 1에서 경제수준, 시민성, 보수성, 발전가능성의 4 차원으로 추출된 도시이미지는 연구 2에서 검정되었다. 대구시의 이미지는 보수성이 가장 높고 경제수준이 가장 낮은 것으로 인식되었는데, 연구 1의 결과 보수성과 시민성에서 서울시보다 높고 경제수준에서 더 낮은 것으로 인식되었다. 연구 2의 결과 거주지역에 상관없이 고소득, 고학력, 미혼, 젊은 층은 대구시의 이미지를 보수적이며, 시민성과 발전가능성은 낮은 것으로 인식하여 부정적으로 지각하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 2 단계 모두에서 대구지역 응답자가 서울지역 응답자보다 대구시의 이미지에 대해 보다 부정적이었다.

It may also represent the playful or ironic image by combining with other items or execution techniques.
