Abstract

This study investigated how Schwartz' value system(1992) would interfere with SNS users' motivations and behavioral responses. The study result shows that values are characterized in terms of openness, mutual reciprocity, self enhancement, normative compliance, and security. Each of them exerted differential impact on SNS usage motives, social capital, ad response, and word-of-mouth, among others. The five values were used as an input for segmenting SNS users and clustering method produced four value segments; experience seeker, interdependent sympathizer, self enhancer, and norm-bound. Each value group not only influenced SNS perceptions and behavioral responses differently, but also showed a systematic relationship with SNS service types. The study findings demonstrate that Schwartz's value system provides a very useful theoretical basis for understanding the psychological mechanism underlying SNS usage.

본 연구에서는 Schwartz의 가치체계 이론(1992)에 근거하여 개인적 가치가 SNS 이용자의 동기적 특성 및 행태적 반응에 미치는 효과를 분석하였다. 본 조사 결과 크게 '개방성,' '상호호혜성,' '자기 향상성,' '규범 준수성,' '안전성'의 5가지 가치차원이 주요하였으며, 이들 각 가치차원은 SNS 이용동기, 사회적 자본, 광고반응, 구전의도 등에 차별적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 이들 제 가치차원을 중심으로 SNS 이용자들을 군집화한 결과 '경험 추구형,' '상호의존적 공감형,' '자기 향상형,' '규범 준수형'의 4개의 가치집단으로 세분화되었다. 각 가치집단은 SNS 인식 및 행태적 특성에 있어서 차별적 특징을 보여주었을 뿐만 아니라, SNS 서비스 유형과도 체계적인 관련성을 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과 Schwartz의 가치체계이론은 SNS 이용과 관련된 심리적 기제를 이해하는데 매우 유용한 틀로 활용될 수 있음을 보여주었다.
