This study aimed to examine the choice motives for organic coffee and investigate how these motives influence consumer attitudes and purchase intentions regarding organic coffee. A survey was administered to people visiting organic coffee shops in Seoul. Analyses of frequency, descriptive statistics, factor and reliability, ANOVA, correlation, and regression were conducted using SPSS 20.0. Six factors were demonstrated as motives for choosing organic coffee: health, price, reliability, familiarity, sensory appeal, and environment friendliness. Among six factors, "reliability" and "environment friendliness" were positively associated with consumer attitudes, which had a significant impact on purchase intentions. This study is one of the first to examine the relationship between consumer attitudes and purchase intentions focusing on organic coffee. Although the organic coffee market has high potential, its theoretical background has been under developed. By revealing choice motives for organic coffee, this study could provide basic information on how to satisfy consumer needs and promote purchasing. In addition, by understanding needs of diverse and specific coffee consumer groups, effective marketing strategies can be developed with a focus on organic coffee. Especially, environment-friendly and reliable organic coffee can satisfy consumers, maximize profits, and improve brand value.

본 연구는 한국 소비자들의 명품 소비행동과 관련된 요인들로 밝혀진 구매동기요인 및 사용혜택요인들을 중심으로 구매의도에 미치는 인과구조적 관계성을 알아보고자 하였다. 선행 문헌분석을 토대로 한국인의 명품구매동기와 사용혜택요인들에 대한 요인구조에 대해 살펴보았으며, 이러한 요인들이 명품 구매의도와 어떤 관계성이 있는 가를 확인하였다. 연구결과 첫째, 소비자들이 명품을 구매하는 동기와 명품을 사용함으로써 얻는 혜택요인들 간의 관련성을 확인한 결과, 물질적 동기는 경제적 혜택과 실용적 혜택요인에 긍정적 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 심리적 동기는 개인적 혜택과 사회적 혜택 및 경제적 혜택요인에 긍정적 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 소비자들의 명품 구매동기 요인이 구매의도에 미치는 관련성을 확인한 결과, 물질적 동기는 유의미한 영향이나 관계가 나타나지 않았으나, 심리적 동기는 긍정적 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 명품 사용 혜택요인들이 구매의도에 미치는 관련성을 확인한 결과, 개인적, 경제적, 실용적 혜택요인들은 유의미한 영향이나 관계가 나타나지 않았으나, 사회적 혜택요인은 부정적 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 이러한 요인들 간의 매개효과 측면을 확인한 결과, 심리적 동기만이 사회적 혜택요인을 통한 구매의도와의 부분매개효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구결과는 소비자들의 명품구매행동을 설명하는데 구매동기가 구매행동에 미치는 단순한 직선관계뿐만 아니라 명품을 사용함으로서 얻게 되는 혜택요인에 대한 지각이 매개되어 나타나는 간접적 과정을 설명했다는 점에 가치가 있으며, 향후 명품관련 마케팅 담당자들에게 소비자들의 이러한 심리적 특성을 고려해야만 하는 시사점을 제공해 주었다.
