Y세대는 시장연구에 있어서 많은 흥미를 갖는 세대이다. 이 세대는 1981년에서 1995년에 태어난 사람들로 미국의 역사상 가장 큰 소비자 집단을 이루고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 미국에 있어서 Y세대들이 청바지를 구입할 때 고려하는 결정 요인들과 맞음새 문제에 대한 그들의 관심을 잘 이해하는 것이며, 연구 결과를 통해 미국 의류업체들이 소비자들의 요구를 잘 반영할 수 있도록 기초자료를 제공하려는 것이다. 본 연구 결과, 미국의 Y세대들은 인터넷이나 미디어에 영향을 받기 보다는 또래집단이나 자신들의 직감능력에 더 의존하는 것으로 나타났다. 쇼핑 방법에 있어서는 리테일 스토아를 백화점이나 디스카운트 스토아보다 더 선호하였다. 또한, 청바지 구매시 맞음새를 브랜드나 색상보다 더 중요한 결정 요소로 생각했으며 87%가 그런 생각을 갖고 있었다. 맞음새 문제에 있어서 대부분 젊은층인데도 불구하고 바지 길이, 엉덩이앞뒤길이, 허리둘레에 문제가 있다고 하였다. 이 맞음새 문제는 가격대와 사이즈와도 관련이 있는 것으로 나타났으므로 의류 생산 업체들이 다양한 신체 형태와 대상 소비자들의 이해에 관심을 갖을 필요가 있는 것으로 사료된다.

Recently, owing to the rapid growth of the Internet and information technology, the growth of the Internet shopping mall has been truly phenomenal. In the Internet shopping mall, as the customers can't touch a product directly, trust is important factor in purchasing intention. Many researchers proposed direct relationship between the customer trust and the purchasing intention. We supposed that there would be some factors that could be the consequences of trust in on-line purchasing decision, and the factors could be also the determinants of purchasing intention and decision for the Internet shopping mall customers. We found out that there were indirect relationship between them through the customer's attitude, involvement, and royalty to the site rather then directly related. Particularly, the correlation between the site attitude and the purchasing intention was high, but the direct effect was not significant. The site attitude was indirectly related to the purchasing intention through the customer involvement and loyalty. This means that the customer relationship involvement and loyalty enhancement strategies are more important for the success of Internet shopping mall.

Information technology is an effective means for raising firm competitiveness. In fact, what to purchase or how to purchase it must fall under a highly complex decision-making in which many different stakeholders are involved. These stakeholders are often known to take a defensive behavior. That is, instead of working toward a common goal of organizational performance, each individual of these stakeholders tends to act defensively to avoid risks he/she faces or minimize subsequent changes. Despite a frequent occurrence of defensive behavior in the process of IT purchasing, there has been no research about defensiveness in IT purchasing. Our study aims to elicit different types of defensive behavior in IT purchasing situations and to identify causes of these defensive behaviors. To this end, we surveyed IT professionals having much experience in IT purchasing and took a qualitative analysis on their opinions. We found out that there exist 9 different types of defensive behavior in IT purchasing and identified a set of factors causing the defensiveness and a set of their consequences.

본 연구는 모바일 쇼핑에서 소비자가 제품을 구매하기 위한 구매행동 및 의사결정에 대한 요인에 대해 알아보고, 모바일 소비자 행동을 알아보기 위해 문제인식, 정보탐색, 대안평가, 구매행동 단계로 구매의사결정과정을 정의하고 각 단계별 요인이 소비자 구매결정에 어떤 역할과 영향을 미치는지 실증 분석을 통해 모바일 쇼핑의 소비자 구매행동을 규명하였다. 연구 결과 첫째, 정보탐색의 사용자 특성은 플로우에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 정보탐색 단계의 사용자 특성과 대안평가의 지각된 위험 관계에서 이익인지가 높을수록 시간손실에 대한 지각된 위험은 낮아지고 기술수준이 높으면 지각된 위험이 높아지며, 혁신성은 위험지각에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타나 부분 채택 되었다. 셋째, 플로우 경험과 구매의도 관계에서는 원거리존재감과 도전은 구매의도에 영향을 미치지 않고 흥분, 주의집중, 통제는 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타나 부분적 유의하며, 지각된 위험과 구매의도는 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 실용적 관여와 감각적 관여의 관여 유형에 따라 소비자 구매행동의 차이를 분석한 결과 사용자 특성과 플로우, 지각된 위험은 제품 유형에 따라 탐색과정에 차이가 있으며 구매의도가 달라지는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 본 연구의 의의와 제한점을 논의했다.
