The purpose of this study is to clarify the tendency of impulse buying behavior and the consumer psychological characteristic factors which arouse impulse purchase and the difference in exploratory behavior according to the degree of impulse buying behaviors. For this purpose existing studies on impulse buying behaviors, consumer stimulation levels and exploratory behaviors were theoretically reviewed. And field survey was carried out for this study; 353 women impulse consumers were selected by convenience sampling method. The summarized main results of this study are as follows; 1) In relative perspectives, the consumers who has high degree of impulse buying behavior was favor of sensory buying behavior but, was lack of planned and rational buying behaviro. 2) The optimal stimulation level of high-impulse consumers is higher than that of low-impulse consumers. Especially, optimal stimulation level of impulse consumers is significantly higher than their life-style stimulation level. This means that impulse consumers are consider to a stimulation seeker. 3) The high-impulse consumers have high exploration through shopping, high information seeking behavior, high interpersonal communication level, high risk taking behavior and particulary high sensory exploratory patterns in purchase exploratory behaviors than that of low-impulse consumers.

This study utilizes social big data to investigate the factors influencing the awareness, attitude, and behavior toward vegan fashion consumption among global and Korean consumers. Social media posts containing the keyword "vegan fashion" were gathered, and meaningful discourse patterns were identified using semantic network analysis and sentiment analysis. The study revealed that diverse factors guide the purchase of vegan fashion products within global consumer groups, while among Korean consumers, the predominant discourse involved the concepts of veganism and ethics, indicating a heightened awareness of vegan fashion. The research then delved into the factors underpinning awareness (comprehension of animal exploitation, environmental concerns, and alternative materials), attitudes (both positive and negative), and behaviors (exploration, rejection, advocacy, purchase decisions, recommendations, utilization, and disposal). Global consumers placed great significance on product-related information, whereas Korean consumers prioritized ethical integrity and reasonable pricing. In addition, environmental issues stemming from synthetic fibers emerged as a significant factor influencing the awareness, attitude, and behavior regarding vegan fashion consumption. Further, this study confirmed the potential presence of cultural disparities influencing overall awareness, attitude, and behavior concerning the acceptance of vegan fashion, and offers insights into vegan fashion marketing strategies tailored to specific cultures, aiming to provide vegan fashion companies and brands with a deeper understanding of their consumer base.

The cutthroat competition of the market for the medical services caused changes and developments of hospital management from the traditional provider-oriented management to a consumer-oriented management toward the customer. And the popularization of on-line community through the growth and spread of internet technology is developed into an important exploration activity to provide various medical information to patient(or customer) who wishes a high-quality medical services. This is an on-line Word-of-Mouth(WOM). It is a kind of information exploration that is performed by customers before choosing the hospital with off-line word-of-mouth. In this study, we develop our research model to verify the causal relationships among on/off-line WOM, key determinants of hospital choice and the customer's will to make use of the hospitals, and total effect of these variables. We adopt a component-based PSL method for an empirical analysis of the patients experienced dermatology or obstetrics gynecology. Finally, we understand the characteristics of the various medical services and draw new and significant strategic previews.

본 연구는 소비자 공감반응의 여러 가지 측면에 대한 이론적 근거를 바탕으로 소비자 스스로가 자기 공감화하는 과정으로 확장할 수 있는지에 대한 문제제기와 함께 탐색적 차원에서 심층면접을 적용하여 확인하고자 하였다. 소비자 공감과 관련된 대부분의 연구들은 공감이론을 바탕으로 소비자 공감의 반응적 차원을 이성적, 감성적 차원으로 구분을 하고 있으며, 현재의 관점에서 제시되는 자극에 국한하여 소비자가 지각하는 공감적 반응을 살펴보고 있다는 특징이 있다. 하지만 본 연구에서는 여기서 한 단계 더 나아가 소비자 스스로가 해당 콘텐츠에 대하여 재생산 및 재개발 과정의 창조적 거리를 형성하는 자기공감화의 과정으로 나아감으로써 궁극적으로 자아성찰 단계로 나아갈 수 있음을 확인하고자 하였다. 심층면접을 통한 탐색적 연구결과, 특정 마케팅 자극에 대한 소비자의 공감적 반응은 선행연구들이 강조하고 있는 차원과 함께 보다 창조적이고 자기공감적 차원에서도 존재하고 있음이 간접적으로 확인되었다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 소비자 공감적 반응은 단순히 하나의 단일차원을 넘어 다차원적 구조를 형성함과 동시에 공감적 자기화의 확장적 구조로 나아갈 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 소비자의 공감적 반응이 특정 차원으로 설명되기보다는 공감적 반응의 연속성 측면에서 총체적으로 파악해야 함을 시사한다. 본 연구가 탐색적인 성격의 초기 연구로서 의의를 가지지만 여러 가지 내용적 타당성의 보완 및 연구방법의 정교화는 후속연구를 통하여 보완을 해야 할 것으로 사료된다. 본 연구를 통하여 소비자 공감의 반응이 타인공감을 넘어 창조적 차원의 자기공감으로 확장될 수 있다는 이해의 폭이 확장됨과 동시에, 향후 이와 관련된 많은 후속 연구들이 파생될 것으로 기대된다.

The purposes of this study were to explore (1) how fit reviews differ among height groups and (2) how overall numerical ratings differ depending on height groups and ifferent types of fit reviews. Content analysis was used to analyze systematically sampled online consumer reviews (OCRs) of formalwear dresses rented online. In part 1, 201 OCRs were analyzed to develop the coding scheme, which included three aspects of fit (physical, aesthetic, and functional), valence (negative, neutral, positive), and overall numerical rating. In part 2, 600 OCRs were coded and statistically analyzed. Differences in frequency were not found among height groups for any types of mentions (negative, neutral, and positive) in terms of the three aspects of fit in the OCRs. Differences in overall mean ratings were not found among height groups. Interestingly, valence of each aspect of fit reviews affected mean numeric ratings. This study is new in examining relationships among textual information (i.e., fit reviews), numerical information (i.e., numerical rating), and reviewer's characteristic (i.e., height). The results of this study offered practical implications for etailers and marketers that they should pay attention to the three aspects of fit reviews and monitor garments with negative fit evaluations for lower ratings. They may attempt to increase ratings by providing customers recommendations to get a better fit.

The authors map some of the current Business Models in the Massively Multiplayer Online Player scenario. These maps represent Value Creation Systems by resorting to Value Net constructs and notations, and are offered here as a proof of concept and utility. The authors claim that these mappings can enable readers, managers and IT experts, to build new insights onto such Business Models and develop requirements for Information System infrastructure. When approaching the Value Creation System as a Value Net the goal is to think outside the conceptual box of Value Chains and understand how the different activities interact, by exposing the multiplicity of value types and flows. In doing this study the authors are attempting to synthesize a new Business Model proposal that could underlie the development of an infrastructure for the collaborative creation, distribution and exploration of online massively multiplayer games, beyond the traditional producer-consumer roles.
