초록

본 연구에서는 게임 이용자가 자신이 인식한 일치성이 게임 이용의도에 영향을 미치는지 알아보기 위하여 수행되었다. 또한 이러한 관계에서 감정이라는 심정적 요소가 매개역할을 하는 지도 확인해 보고자 하였다. 타인과의 상호작용적인 요소를 배제하기 위해 온라인 게임이나 모바일 게임 등이 아닌 콘솔 게임기나 PC 플랫폼 상의 1인 플레이 게임을 대상으로 실증분석을 수행해 보았다. 분석결과 사용자의 자아 일치성과 기능적 일치성은 게임 이용의도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이러한 관계에서 감정은 매개효과를 발휘하고 있음도 확인하였다. 이를 통해 게임 제작시 사용자의 이미지와 기능에 부합함과 동시에 감정적인 면을 유발할 수 있는 게임을 제작할 필요가 있음을 게임 제작사에게 하나의 시사점으로 제시하고 있다.

This study was accomplished to examine the relationship between the videogame player's perceived congruity and intention to game use, and to investigate the mediating effect of emotion as the psychological factor. Games for the research subject are confined to single player games on console or PC not online or mobile games to rule out human interaction. The results proposed that self and functional congruity have positive impact on intention to game use, and emotion is in the mediating effect of these relationships. Based on the results of the analysis, game producers have some implications for the game which is appropriate for the quality, the gamer's image, and the emotional aspect.
