초록

본 연구의 목적은 TAM 모델에서의 신념변수인 지각된 유용성을 기대불일치이론에 근거하여 지각된 유용성과 기대된 유용성의 불일치정도로 개념화 하고자 한다. 이를 통해 신기술 수용에 관한 개인의 혁신성과 URC로봇의 유용성에 대한 기대불일치정도가 태도와 이용의도에 영향을 미치는 과정을 규명하고자 한다. 이를 위해 2006년과 2007년 두 차례에 걸쳐 1000가구를 대상으로 실시된 URC 시범서비스 가구를 대상으로 각각 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 두 차례 설문 모두에 응답한 설문응답을 대상으로 실증분석을 수행하였다. 분석결과, 개인 혁신성은 유용성의 기대불일치정도(지각된 유용성-기대된 유용성)에 부정적인 영향을 미쳤으며, 유용성의 기대불일치정도는 사용자 태도와 이용의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 또한 사용자 태도는 이용의도와 유의미한 수준에서 관련성이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Korea Communications Commission (KCC) has been providing the pilot service of URC(Ubiquitous Robot Companion), which is a network-based personal robot, to 1000 Korean households since 2006 to define potential users' needs and adoption behaviors. Personal innovativeness might play a critical role in adoption of URC services by users because much sophisticated and convergence technologies are incorporated into URC services. Also, defining not only perceived beliefs about URC services but also expected beliefs about them are very crucial to reduce disconfirmation between users' perception and expectation of URC services. From this point of view, this paper aimed to examine robot users' adoption behavior by considering constructs such as personal innovativeness, usefulness (perceived usefulness - expected usefulness, P-E), user attitude, and intention to use. The findings reveal that personal innovativeness is negatively related to usefulness (P-E) whereas usefulness (P-E) influences significantly and positively on user attitude. It is also shown that usefulness (P-E) and user attitude have strong positive effects on intention to use.
