Abstract

This study investigates the factors that stimulate or suppress the use of food delivery applications. As potential antecedent factors, the present research examined the review diagnosticity, descriptive norms, and multidimensional risk perception. Based on this, users' data were collected from major metropolitan cities where the food delivery application business is most active. The results of structural equation modeling confirmed that users' approach to food delivery apps becomes more favorable when the review diagnosticity and descriptive norms were improved and when the perceived multidimensional risk expected to be associated with app use is mitigated. Additionally, we found that the positive influence of these attitudes on the actual intention to accept delivery applications became weaker at higher levels of perceived risk. These empirical results may contribute to the formation of strategic and systematic guidelines for promoting the expansion of the recently emerging O2O service platform across diverse sectors. Namely, the significance of this study lies in that it has raised awareness regarding the strategic considerations that such new O2O service providers should take into account for their market positions, in addition to discovering factors that could aid the prompt expansion of the applications' user base.

본 연구는 배달앱의 수용을 촉진하거나 억제하는 요인의 탐색에 초점을 맞추고 있다. 가능한 선행 요인으로 리뷰의 진단성 및 기술적 규범, 위험의 다차원적 지각 정도를 살펴보고 있는 본 연구는 실제 배달앱 비즈니스가 활성화되어 있는 주요 광역도시 거주 사용자들을 대상으로 데이터를 수집하였다. 수집된 자료에 대해 시행한 구조방정식 모형 분석의 결과는 배달앱에 게재되어 있는 리뷰의 진단성 및 기술적 규범의 수준에 대한 인식이 향상될수록, 그리고 배달앱 사용에 수반되리라 예상되는 다차원적 위험 지각이 완화될수록 보다 우호적인 방향으로 태도가 형성되게 됨을 확인시켜 주었다. 아울러 이러한 태도가 실제 배달앱 수용의 의사에 미치는 정(+)의 영향력은 지각된 위험의 수준이 악화될수록 보다 완화되게 됨을 확인시켜 주었다. 이러한 일련의 실증결과는 최근 다양한 분야에서 부상하고 있는 O2O 서비스 플랫폼의 수용 및 확산을 촉진할 수 있는 전략적 제도적 지침의 마련에 기여하여 줄 수 있을 것이다. 즉, 최근 부상 중인 여러 신생 O2O 서비스 업체들의 시장 안착에 요구되는 전략적 고려 사항에 대한 인식 환기와 더불어 보다 신속한 사용자 저변의 확대에 이바지할 수 있는 동인들을 발견해 내는데 기여할 수 있을 것이다.
