This model was empirically developed to test the effect of medical service quality and hospital's reputation on customer satisfaction, repurchase intention, and negative word of mouth as to disease severity. The model was tested in the context of the hospital industry. The findings are as follows. First, medical service provider's functional quality and technical service quality have significant effect on customer satisfaction. Second, hospital's reputation has positive(+) effect on customer satisfaction and significant negative effect on negative word of mouth. Third, customer satisfaction with medical service quality has significantly positive effect on customer's repurchase intention and has negative(-) effect on customer's negative word of mouth. Furthermore, customer's negative word of mouth has negative effect on their repurchase intention. Fourth, as to different disease severity, medical service quality and hospital's reputation have different effect on customer satisfaction, repurchase intention, and negative word of mouth. When patients get slightly ill, functional service quality and technical service quality have direct influence on customer satisfaction which has positive influence on repurchase intention and negative influence on negative word of mouth. Finally, negative word of mouth has negative effect on customer's repurchase intention. However, while hospital's reputation doesn't have effect on customer satisfaction, the reputation has significantly negative effect on negative word of mouth. When patients get seriously ill, only functional service quality has positive effect on customer satisfaction which influences on customer's repurchase intention and negatively influences on negative word of mouth. On the contrary, negative word of mouth doesn't influence on customer's repurchase intention as patients want to treat serious diseases in the large general hospitals even though negative word of mouth is known to them.

본 연구는 현대기업의 경쟁력과 관련된 중요한 요인 중 하나인 기업평판에 관한 연구이다. 기업평판에 관한 연구들은 주로 외부고객관점에서 이루어져 왔는데, 최근들어 내부고객관점에서 평판의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 비교적 외부이해관계자 관점에서 주로 고려된 기업평판을 내부이해관계자인 종업원 관점에서 고찰함으로써 기업의 성과를 예측하는 중요한 변수로서 기업평판의 관리가 필요하다는 점을 주장하고 있다. 이론적 논의와 실증분석을 통해 기업평판이 회사몰입과 이직의도에 미치는 영향을 분석하였고, 기업평판의 보다 다양한 시사점을 위해 기업차원의 사회적 자본이라고 할 수 있는 경영자신뢰의 조절효과를 검증하였다. 포항지역의 금속산업 종업원 239명을 대상으로 연구가설을 검증하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 첫째, 기업평판이 높을수록 회사몰입은 높고 이직 의도는 낮게 나타났다. 둘째, 경영자신뢰는 기업평판이 회사몰입에 미치는 영향을 강화하는 작용을 하였지만 이직의도에 미치는 영향에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이러한 실증연구결과를 토대로 연구의 시사점 제시하고 있다.

본 연구에서는 모브랜드 제품범주와는 관련성이 없는 비유사제품으로의 브랜드확장에 영향을 미치는 모브랜드명성과 성향조절초점의 주효과와 이들 변수들 간의 상호작용효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 실험에서는 모브랜드로 국내 식품브랜드인 풀무원(고명성브랜드)과 가상의 브랜드인 그린(Green)(저명성브랜드)을, 확장제품으로는 화장품을 선정하여, 브랜드명성과 성향조절초점이 확장브랜드 평가에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 첫째, 저명성브랜드보다 고명성브랜드에서 브랜드확장에 대한 평가가 더 긍정적으로 나타났으며, 둘째, 촉진초점 성향의 소비자들이 방어초점 성향의 소비자들보다 브랜드확장에 대해 더욱 높게 평가하였다. 그리고 셋째, 고명성브랜드에서는 방어초점집단과 촉진초점집단 간 브랜드확장 평가는 차이가 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 저명성브랜드에서는 성향조절초점에 따라 브랜드확장 평가 차이가 유의미하게 나타남으로써, 이들 2변수들 간에는 상호작용효과가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

본 연구는 한류 열풍이 확산되고 있는 카자흐스탄을 대상으로 한국에 대한 국가평판과 한국 연예인평판이 한국산 제품에 대한 구매의도에 미치는 영향을 분석했다. 특히 10-30대 카자흐스탄인 257명을 대상으로 설문조사를 진행했으며, 연구결과에서 한국에 대한 국가평판이 한국산 제품에 대한 구매의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 결과가 나타났다. 하지만 한국 연예인평판은 한국산 제품에 대한 구매의도에 통계적으로 영향을 미치지 않았다. 즉 한국이라는 원산지 효과만이 해당 국가 제품 구매에 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인했다. 따라서 카자흐스탄 내에서의 한국에 대한 국가평판을 기반으로 한국 제품의 촉진활동을 통해 소비자들의 구매를 유도할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Corporate reputation is a widely debated topic among academics and a crucial issue in the business world. However, previous research in this area has been scattered and fragmented, leaving room for further study, particularly in terms of reputation measurement methods. Factors such as sustainability reporting, governance attributes, and company characteristics have been linked to improved company reputation. However, there is limited research on the effects of these variables on the new methods of measuring reputation, especially in developing countries like Malaysia. Therefore, the current study developed a new measurement for reputation and aimed to examine the relationship between these variables and the new proxy of reputation. The current study collected secondary data from the company's annual report for two years period of study (i.e., 2018 and 2019) and employed content analysis. A period of two years was chosen and deemed ample to provide insightful findings of the effect of the variables associated with reputation disclosure. The results indicate that sustainability reporting, outside directors, company size, leverage, and profitability significantly impact corporate reputation. This finding suggests that Malaysian PLCs and other firms in developing countries must recognize sustainability reporting as part of their reputation management strategy that influences the company's reputation.
