Abstract

The purpose of this study is threefold. Firstly, what are some attributes of brands that affect perceived authenticity of brands? Secondly, how do the product characteristics such as public goods and private goods change the impacts of attributes on the perceived authenticity of brands? Thirdly, does the perceived authenticity influence consumers' brand attitude and mediate the relationship between brand attributes and the brand attitude? With regard to the role of authenticity in performance of marketing, the authors examined the relationship between the perceived authenticity and brand attitude. The study expands understanding of the relationship between brand attributes and authenticity while at the same time answering the call for further studies on the role of the perceived authenticity in improving brand attitude. The finding also demonstrates that the influence of attributes could be different depending on product categories.

본 연구에서는 진정성 지각 관련 변수들을 종합적으로 제시하고, 이러한 브랜드 속성들이 실제로 진정성 지각에 영향을 미치는지 검증하였다. 제품 유형에 따라서 어떠한 속성들이 소비자의 진정성 지각 형성에 더욱 중요한 역할을 하는지도 살펴보고, 진정성 지각이 브랜드 성과와 연결되는지, 즉 소비자의 브랜드 태도에 직접적인 영향을 미치는지 분석하였고, 브랜드 속성들이 진정성 지각을 형성한 후에 태도에 영향을 미치는 것인지도 추가적으로 확인하였다. 연구 결과, 진정성 지각에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 브랜드 속성은 우수성, 자연성, 유행 반영성, 일관성, 지역 관련성, 윤리성의 여섯 가지 차원으로 구성되었으며, 자연성은 사적제품에서, 유행 반영성이나 지역관련성은 공적제품에서 더욱 진정성 지각을 높이는 것으로 분석되었다. 진정성 지각은 브랜드 태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났는데, 매개회귀분석 결과 진정성 지각은 우수성과 유행 반영성 차원에서 부분매개 역할을, 자연성, 일관성, 윤리성 차원에서 완전매개 역할을 함을 파악하였다.
