  • During recent decades, the number of mixed attribute products (henceforth mixed products), which have both utilitarian and hedonic benefits, has increased dramatically. Despite these products' growing popularity, academic research has paid little attention to them, and there remains a gap between theory and the real world. Hence, our study was undertaken to understand consumers' perceptions about and behaviors toward mixed products, as well as factors affecting the evaluation and choice of these products. We divided mixed attribute products into two categories: mixed utilitarian products (utilitarian products adding hedonic attributes) and mixed hedonic products (hedonic products adding utilitarian attributes). We then showed how adding different attributes affects consumers' perception, willingness to pay (WTP), and the choice of mixed attribute products compared to pure utilitarian or pure hedonic products. We conducted an experiment using a within-subject design. A total of 160 office workers and college students participated in the study. The pure utilitarian product used in the study was orange juice, and the mixed utilitarian product was carbonated orange juice. The pure hedonic product was chocolate, and the mixed hedonic product was polyphenol enriched chocolate. Results showed that consumers perceived a mixed utilitarian product to be less utilitarian, less pleasurable and more guilty than a pure utilitarian product. On the other hand, a mixed hedonic product was perceived to be more utilitarian, less pleasurable and less guilty than a pure hedonic product. Also, WTP for a mixed hedonic product was higher than WTP for a pure hedonic product, but WTP was lower for a mixed utilitarian product than for a pure utilitarian product. Furthermore, mixed hedonic products were likely to be evaluated more favorably when they were presented together with pure hedonic products, more so than when they were presented alone. Finally, when compared to low self-control participants, high self-control participants chose mixed hedonic products more frequently. The present study contributes to the existing literature on utilitarian and hedonic consumption by adding to the sparse literature on the consumption of products that have both utilitarian and hedonic purposes. Also, our research findings provide several useful implications for practitioners in related fields. First, the current study provides marketers with a useful guide for understanding consumers' perceptions of these types of products, and helps to predict how adding different attributes influences these products. Second, this study has examined the conditions that may moderate the evaluation and choice of hedonic base products and this finding will serve as a good reference for marketers of mixed hedonic products in marketing communication strategy, in-store marketing and targeting. Specifically, comparative advertising with a pure hedonic product will be beneficial for a mixed hedonic product. Also, displaying mixed hedonic products near pure hedonic products may enhance the effectiveness of in-store marketing of mixed hedonic products.

  • 최근 정보통신 기술 및 로봇 기술이 기존 제품에 접목된 지능형제품들이 개발되고 있다. 사용자에게 보다 수용 가능한 지능형제품을 개발하기 위해, 다양한 인터랙션 방식 또는 지능화 부분을 고려한 지능형제품디자인방법들이 소개되고 있다. 그러나 지능형제품은 모체제품이라고 불리는 기존 제품을 기반으로 하므로, 제품 속성 관점에서의 효과적인 지능형제품디자인방법에 대한 탐색이 필요하다. 이 연구의 목적은 제품 속성에 따른 지능형제품 유형이 소비자 수용도에 미치는 영향을 알아보는 것이다. 이를 위해 유아용 실내화를 사례로 하여, 쾌락적 지능형제품과 실용적 지능형제품을 비교하는 실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과, 제품선호도에 대해 피험자는 실용적 지능형 유아용 실내화를 쾌락적 지능형 유아용 실내화보다 긍정적으로 평가하고, 보다 높은 구매의사와 지불의사 금액을 나타냈다. 이는 유아용 실내화가 유아용 제품이라는 점에서 쾌락적 가치가 요구될 수도 있으나, 층간 소음이라는 사회적 문제와 관련된 제품이므로 실용적 가치가 보다 중요한 가치로 인식된 것으로 해석된다.

  • 본 연구는 소비자들의 사고유형에 따른 소비 행동의 차이를 탐색하였다. 특히 소비자들이 실용제품의 평가에는 실용속성을, 쾌락제품의 평가에는 쾌락속성을 보다 많이 활용하게 될 것으로 예측하였다. 또한 소비자의 사고유형을 이성적 사고유형과 경험적 사고 유형으로 구분하고 제품속성 정보 유형에 따라 다른 사고유형을 유발시키는지를 검증하고, 이러한 사고유형이 제품평가에 미치는 영향을 탐색하였다. 분석결과 첫째, 소비자들은 제품유형별로 각기 다른 기준을 이용하여 평가를 하는 것으로 나타났는데, 실용재의 경우에는 평가기준으로 실용속성을 좀 더 사용하며 쾌락재의 경우에는 쾌락속성을 좀 더 이용하는 것으로 나타났다 둘째, 속성정보 유형에 따라 유발되는 사고유형이 다른 것으로 나타났는데 실용속성 정보는 이성적 사고를 유발하는 반면, 쾌락속성 정보는 경험적 사고를 유발하는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 실용재를 실용속성으로 평가할 경우 이성적 사고가 제품에 대한 평가를 높게 하며, 쾌락재를 쾌락속성으로 평가할 경우 경험적 사고가 제품에 대한 평가를 높게 하는 것으로 나타났다.

  • Purpose: The online market is growing the most in history due to the expansion of non-face-to-face commerce. In addition, as consumers' interest in health, food safety, and environment increases, interest in and consumption of eco-friendly agricultural products is also increasing. Therefore, in the case of a specialty store that sells eco-friendly organic agricultural products, a marketing strategy that can increase customer loyalty by reflecting these consumer needs is necessary. In this study, the store attributes of eco-friendly food stores are classified into location, assortment, price, quality, and employee service, and the effect of each store attribute on utilitarian and hedonic value is investigated. Research design, data, and methodology: The subjects of this study were customers who visited an eco-friendly food store. Of the 511 survey responses, 311 were used for statistical verification, excluding 200 who had not visited within the last 3 months. For statistical analysis, Smart PLS 3.0 was used, and after checking the validity and reliability of the items, hypothesis testing was performed. Result: As a result of the study, it was found that assortment, quality, and employee service among store attributes had a positive (+) effect on utilitarian and hedonic value. Second, location had no significant effect on utilitarian and hedonic value. Third, price did not appear to have a positive (+) effect on the utilitarian value, and it was found to have a positive (+) effect on the hedonic value. Fourth, It was investigated whether the presence or absence of delivery service had an effect on store attributes between utilitarian and hedonic value, and it was found that there was a significant effect between employee service and hedonic value. Conclusions: Among eco-friendly food store environment management will be required in order to provide food that meets the tastes and needs of consumers by diversifying the taste, standard, and quality grade of food, and to maintain or improve the quality. In order to unlike other stores, eco-friendly food stores have high price resistance from the point of view of consumers, so it is necessary to diversify promotional media such as YouTube and SNS to raise awareness of eco-friendly organic food.

  • Life-style factors often include social relationships as well as consumption, entertainment and dress patterns. They also typically reflect an individual's attitudes, values and worldview. Life-style types have become and an important factor for segmenting customer markets ever since significant relationships between life-style and customers' behavior was proven. This study examined the relationships between the life-styles of young customers' and the important attributes of foodservice encounters. Factors analysis with VARIMAX and K-means cluster analysis were conducted to group the subjects by life-style. According to the factors analysis, four underlying dimensions were identified and labeled: (1) 'actively fashioned', (2) 'luxury picky', (3) 'healthy toward', and (4) 'utilitarian leisure'. Based on the factor scores derived from the factors analysis, the K-means cluster analysis classified three groups as statistically significant using ANOVA(p<0.05). The overall mean score for the 3rd cluster 'trendy-active picky' was higher than the other two clusters, and represented very picky attitudes about foodservice attributes. The 3rd cluster also seemed to apply higher standards to all of the foodservice attributes. By order of importance, the most important attributes of the 2nd cluster 'pursue-utilitarian leisure' were food serving time, automation systems, server's hygienes, employee kindness, time in line, and menu variety. In spite of low concerns for the life-style attributes, the first cluster 'passively indifferent' recognized menu variety, food sanitation, food serving time, server's hygiene, menu price, air circulation, and room temperature as important. These results suggest that young diners in Korea could be classified by their diverse life-styles that are represented as trendy, utilitarian, and indifferent and will hopefully contribute to the foodservice industry's ability to segment customer characteristics by different life-styles in Korea.
