Abstract

In advanced mobile devices environment, the market share of mobile application has been increased. Among various mobile services, Location-based Service (LBS) is an important feature to increase user motivation related to purchase intention on mobile. However, individual privacy has also increased as an important problem for invasion of privacy and information leakage while too many LBS based applications (App) rapidly launched in the App market. In this study, we focused on perceived values of LBS App users who use Apps related to recommending best restaurants in China and South Korea. The purpose of this study is to identify important factors for perceived value when users provide personal information for LBS service provider. The result of this study is follows: perceived value can increase while LBS customers can more control self-information and information useability. Also information ability of users affected perceived values for LBS Apps. Also users' app user ability and perceived value were effects on privacy revenue. In addtion, perceived weakness of users and perceived value increased privacy threat.

스마트폰과 태블릿 PC 등의 모바일 기기의 확산으로 세계 모바일 애플리케이션(Application, 이하 앱) 시장 규모가 확대되면서, 위치기반서비스(Location-Based Service: LBS)가 새로운 서비스로 주목 받고 있다. 하지만 LBS 앱 관련 제도와 법규가 이루어지지 못한 상태에서 LBS 앱이 빠르게 확산되면서 개인 사생활 침해 가능성 및 개인 정보유출과 같은 프라이버시 염려가 증가하고 있다. 본 연구는 중국과 한국 사용자가 사용하는 맛집 앱을 대상으로 LBS 앱 사용자의 인지된 가치를 살펴보고자 한다. 본 연구의 목적은 맛집 어플리케이션을 사용할 때 개인 정보를 제공함으로써 얻게 되는 인지된 가치와 그에 영향을 주는 변수들을 규명하고자 한다. 본 연구의 분석 결과는 다음과 같다. 소비자가 정보의 유용성을 인지하며 정보에 대한 통제능력이 높을수록 정보에 대한 인지된 가치가 증가하는 것을 증명하였다. 또한 위치기반서비스 앱 활용능력이 프라이버시 이익에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 정보에 지각된 취약성이 프라이버시 위험에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것을 증명하였다. 그리고 선행연구와 달리 위치기반서비스에 대한 인지된 가치는 프라이버시 계산에 구성되는 프라이버시 이익과 위험에 긍정적인 영향을 주었다.
