Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the causal relationship among perceived value, satisfaction and revisit intention for visitors of the Korea National Arboretum. Three hundred respondents were selected by quota sampling, and well-known measurement scales utilized in marketing field were adopted in order to measure three variables with some modification to apply for arboretum visitors. Results of structural equation model showed that perceived value affected visitors' satisfaction, which in turn influenced revisit intention. Specifically, "emotional value" had the most significant influence on satisfaction, followed by "value for money" and "novelty value"; however, "social value" was not an influential construct. Based on calibration results, several strategies were suggested for the effective management. Authors advised that (a)improvement of measurement scale of value, (b)inclusion of self-congruity as antecedent variable to satisfaction, (c)changing revisit intention to word-of-mouth communication as a post-purchase behavioral intention, and (d)implementation of market segmentation should be considered for future research.

본 연구는 국립수목원 관람객의 지각된 가치, 만족과 재방문의도간의 인과관계를 검증하고자 수행되었다. 300명의 수목원 관람객을 할당표본추출하였으며, 변수들은 마케팅분야에서 사용하고 있는 대표적 측정척도를 수목원 상황에 맞도록 변형시켜 측정하였다. 변수들 간의 인과관계를 구조방정식모형으로 정산한 결과, 가치는 만족에 영향을 주었으며, 만족은 재방문의도에 영향을 주었다. 구체적으로 '감성적 가치', '돈에 비한 가치', '새로움에 대한 가치'의 순서로 만족에 큰 영향을 주었지만 '사회적 가치'는 영향력이 없었다. 효과적인 수목원 관리를 위해 가치의 구성개념, 만족, 재방문의도 별로 실행 가능한 몇 가지 전략을 제시하였다. 수목원에서는 이런 종류의 연구가 수행된 적이 없어 추후연구에서는 가치 측정척도를 개선하고, 새로운 변수인 자아일치성과 구전의도의 도입가능성을 검토해야 하며 시장세분의 중요성을 강조하였다.
