Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate the levels of awareness of fermented vegetable beverages according to consumers' gender. The data were obtained through questionnaires completed randomly by 441 respondents and analyzed using the SPSS, t-tests, ANOVA, X-square tests, multiple regression, and logistic regression analyses. Among 441 respondents, 32.9% of male and 30.2% of female ever consumed fermented vegetable beverages. This beverage were consumed as an alternative for water in males (6.3%) and in females (7.9%) which was the most common reason for consumption. As for the most common reason for non-consumption, males (5.9%) and females (6.6%) responded that they did not consume fermented vegetable beverages because people around them have never consumed fermented vegetable beverages. The awareness that fermented vegetable beverages help reduce hunger was higher in females (3.2%) than and in males (2.9%). These results revealed that the awareness of fermented vegetable beverages as hunger alleviators was more prevalent in females than in males which can be used as preliminary data for research on the development of fermented vegetable beverages.

본 논문에서는 효소음료의 인지도를 연구하여 웰빙 시대에 있는 현대인들의 건강관련사항과 더불어 앞으로의 음료시장에서 효소음료에 대한 새로운 제품개발에 따른 기초 연구 자료와 마케팅방안의 발판을 마련하고자 한다. 성별에 따라 가계소득, 직업, 교육수준, 결혼 여부를 비교 분석하였다. 유의적인 차이를 나타낸 항목은 자신의 건강정도, 규칙적인 운동, 수면여부에서 나타났으며, 남자(3.31)가 여자(3.08)보다 자신 스스로가 건강하고 생각하고 있었고, 또한 남자(2.77)가 여자(2.39)보다 규칙적인 운동을 하고 있었으나 수면 여부는 남자(2.76)보다 여자(2.97)가 더 수면을 충분하다고 생각하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 건강유지를 위해 가장 중요하게 고려하는 사항에서는 남자 16.6%, 여자 17.0% 모두 식습관을 가장 중요하게 고려하는 것으로 나타났다. 건강에 대한 정보를 얻는 방법은 남자 42.0%, 여자 41.3%로 모두 대중매체를 통하여 건강에 대한 정보를 얻는 것으로 나타났다. 최근 6개월 동안 건강식품 및 영양제 복용여부를 나타낸 결과에서 유의성(p<0.05)이 나타났다. 효소음료를 마셔본 적이 있는가의 물음에서는 남자가 여자보다 효소음료를 접해본 기회가 많은 것으로 나타났다. 효소음료를 마셔본 계기의 물음에서는 성별에 따라 유의적인 차이를 나타냈으며, 남자(20.4%), 여자(15.0%) 모두 가족, 친지에 의해서의 답이 가장 많은 것으로 나타났다. 효소음료를 이용하는 때의 물음에서는 남자(6.3%), 여자(7.9%) 모두 물 대용으로 이용하는 경우가 많은 것으로 나타났다. 효소음료를 마셔본 적이 없는 이유에서 남자(5.9%), 여자(6.6%) 모두 주변사람이 섭취를 안해서가 가장 많았다. 효소음료에 대한 인식도에서 공복감 해소에 도움이 된다는 항목에서만 유의적인 차이를 나타났다. 향후 음료시장에서 효소음료가 자리 잡기 위해서는 여자 소비자의 요구를 충족시킬 수 있는 신제품개발로 건강증진 효과를 주는 기능성식품으로서 뿐만 아니라 기호식품으로서 공복감 해소에 대한 기대감도 크므로 더 나아가 다이어트에 도움을 줄 수 있는 제품으로 인식하게 하여 새로운 제품개발의 방향 설정 및 음료시장 마케팅에 이용되면 좋을 것으로 사료된다. 나아가 다양한 재료의 효소를 가지고 음료를 개발하여 직장인 남성뿐만 아니라, 영유아, 청소년 등 소비자 각 계층의 요구를 충족시킬 수 있는 새로운 제품개발의 방향설정에 이용되면 좋을 것으로 사료된다.
