Abstract

Smart phones play a significant part in the evolution IT industry. In domestic market, smart phones have grown rapidly. However, until today, precedent studies on smart phones, particularly about the reason why consumers use smart phones are uncommon. Thus, in this study we adopted IS continuance and habit theory to study smart phones' use behavior. The results reveal that perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, satisfaction of smart phone usage, continuous use, and habit showed the causes and effects relationships. The results indicated that perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use had a positive effect on smart phone user satisfaction. Moreover, smart phone user satisfaction had a positive effect on the smart phone habits and explorative use. However, smart phone user satisfaction showed insignificant effect toward exploitive use. That is, satisfied users regularly use the smart phone but need to formulate habit of use, and then influence exploitive use. Habit showed a positive effect on both exploitive use and explorative use, Finally, we found that users are likely to pay more attention on new features of smart phones while they are using the devices.

전화를 거듭하고 있는 IT산업의 그 중심에서 스마트폰이 활약하고 있다. 국내 시장에서도 스마트폰은 급속하게 확산되고 있지만 현재까지도 소비자들이 왜 스마트폰을 사용하는지에 대한 실증적 분석을 통한 선행 연구는 드물다. 본 연구에서는 정보시스템의 사용자 만족과 습관이론을 바탕으로 스마트 폰 사용에 대한 원인과 결과에 관해서 실증적으로 검증하였다. 본 연구는 스마트폰 사용자 278명을 대상으로 분석하였고 인지된 유용성과 사용 용이성이 스마트폰 만족에 긍정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 흥미로운 발견은 사용자 만족이 스마트폰 사용 습관과 탐색적 사용에 (+)정의 영향을 주지만 충분한 활용에는 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 나타났다는 것이다. 이는 습관이라는 매개 효과가 충분한 활용에 영향을 주고 있으며 자기효능감의 통제변수가 영향을 주기 때문이라고 할 수 있다. 마지막으로 스마트폰을 사용하면 할수록 사용자는 탐색적으로 새로운 스마트폰 기능에 관심을 기울이는 것으로 조사되었다.
