Abstract

This study conducts empirical tests on the effects of system characteristics and consumer characteristics on the acceptance of mobile commerce based on extended Technology Acceptance Model. The result from the survey of smartphone users in Seoul and Gyunggi shows that perceived usefulness, ease of use, benefits, and quality of information are positively associated with the acceptance of mobile commerce, and perceived risk is negatively associated with the acceptance of mobile commerce. Furthermore, there exists a difference in the effect of system characteristics on the acceptance of mobile commerce based on divided personal characteristics groups. The study contributes to the industries in that firms can create new applications and build strategies based on the results. Furthermore, the results can be used to find factors that determine the acceptance and use of newly introduced technology base products.

본 연구는 확장된 기술수용모델(Extended TAM)과 새로운 이론을 기반으로 하여 모바일 커머스의 특성과 소비자의 특성이 수용의도에 미치는 영향에 대한 실증연구를 진행하였다. 수도권 스마트폰 이용자를 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하여 분석한 결과 지각된 유용성, 용이성, 효익성, 정보의 정확성은 통계적으로 유의한 양의 영향을 미치며, 지각된 위험은 통계적으로 유의한 음의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 조절변수로 이용된 개인의 특성인 성별, 유희성, 혁신성, 친숙도의 정도에 따라 모바일 커머스의 특성이 수용의도 미치는 영향이 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 연구 결과는 모바일 커머스 시장에 진출해있거나 진출하고자 하는 기업에게 새로운 어플리케이션 개발과 모바일 마케팅 전략을 수립하는데 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있다. 또한 본 연구의 결과는 모바일 커머스 뿐만 아니라 새롭게 도입되고 있는 기술혁신 제품의 수용 및 사용에 대한 결정요인을 파악하는 데 향후 응용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
