In marketing, the thematic conceptual study related to hedonic consumption with product symbolism contributed to symbolic consumerism and its hedonic experience. Researching how consumers deal with expectations for unexpected income or windfall gains helps understand what makes them enjoy experiences. This paper discusses the trade-off relationship between hedonic and utilitarian consumption. it aims to determine when and why people choose hedonic (pleasant) or utilitarian (material) products under windfall gains. We suggested five hypotheses, and through a series of experiments, respondents preferred hedonic to utilitarian goods when lottery amounts increased and the probabilities did not discriminate between two products. the preference order was not discriminated in the hedonic, utilitarian goods. the shape of preference revealed an opposite direction (U vs. invert-U)when the winfall amounts increased. and when the discounting rates varied, the consumers' preference order was expected to change. Subjects selected hedonic goods the most, utilitarian goods second, and cash rewards were the last choice. Therefore, stimulating consumers' hedonism and promoting hedonic experiences might be effective marketing tactics and strategies.

This is a user experience study of factors that should be considered in designing home appliances experience service. Untact services are emerging, but the development of home appliances sector is in early stage. Based on the six factors of Stephen P. Anderson's Creating Pleasurable Interface Model, this study conducted surveys, 1:1 in-depth interviews, and participation observations to measure and analyze user experience. In this study, I compared 4060s and 2030s's user experience in that the untact services raise the digital alienation among middle-senior-aged. As a result, there were significant differences between the two, including the opposite satisfaction in terms of reliable, usable and pleasurable factors. I hope that this study will be of strategic help in designing future home appliance experience services.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of explicit and implicit product warranties on consumers' attitudes toward the products, and particularly, the main effects of product types and level of manufacturers' business ethics on the relationship between warranty types and consumers' attitudes. For this purpose, relevant literature was reviewed and thereupon, a survey was conducted for an empirical analysis. As a result of empirically analyzing the relationship between warranty types and consumers' attitudes and the main effects of the product types (search goods vs. experience goods) and level of business ethics (high vs. low) on the relationship, it was found that consumers' attitudes toward the products were more positive when the product warranty was explicit than when it was implicit, and that such relationship was stronger for experience goods than for search goods one. And, the relationship was stronger when the level of business ethics perceived was lower. However, such moderating effects were not significant for consumers' attitudes, but significant for their purchasing intention.

2000 년 이후부터는 HCI 분야에서도 감성적 측면의 연구 중에서 특히 미학(Aesthetics)과 아름다움 (Beauty)에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어져 왔다. 기존 HCI 분야가 유용성, 사용성과 같은 인지적 측면의 경험 요소들을 추구하기 위해 집중했다면, 최근에는 심미성이나 즐거움 등과 같은 감성적인 측면의 경험 요소도 함께 중시하는 추세이다. 심지어 실용적인 측면을 강조했던 핸드폰이나 냉장고 등의 전자제품에서도 디자인의 심미성과 같은 감성적인 측면이 더욱 부각되고 있다. 현재까지 HCI 분야에서 심미성에 대한 연구가 다수 진행되어왔다. 그 중에서 Tractinsky (2000)는 지각된 심미성과 지각된 사용성이 양의 상관관계를 가짐을 보여주었다. HCI 분야에서 Tranctinsky 와 더불어 Hassenzahl (2004, 2008) 역시 심미성과 다른 사용자 경험 요소들의 상관관계를 밝히기 위해 여러 시도를 해오고 있다. 그러나 상위 연구들은 주로 심미성과 다른 사용자 경험 요소들과의 상관관계에만 초점을 맞추었고, 모두 실험 상황에서만 연구가 진행되었다는 한계점을 가지고 있다. 즉, 실험 상황에서 도출된 결과는 실제로 사용자가 구매 시점이나 사용 상황에서 심미성을 얼마나 중요하게 고려하는지, 심미성 다른 사용자 경험 요소에 어떤 영향을 미치는지, 그 영향력이 사용 경험에 따라 변화가 없는지 사용 정황이 반영된 시사점을 찾기 어려운 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 크게 두 가지 목적을 가지고 있다. 첫째, 지각된 심미성이 다른 사용자 경험 요소들에 미치는 영향력을 검증하고, 둘째, 지각된 심미성이 다른 사용자 경험 요소에 미치는 영향력을 사용 경험 기간의 조절효과 관점에서 연구하는 것이다. 우선 본 연구에서는 사용자 경험 요소를 다차원적인 관점에서 접근하여, 여러 사용자 경험 요소들을 실용적 차원과 유희적 차원으로 나누었다. 그리고 사용 경험 기간의 조절효과를 보기 위해, 장기간 사용하는 전자제품을 선정하고 이를 실제로 사용하는 사용자를 대상으로 대규모 온라인 설문을 실시하였다. 결론적으로 본 연구는 Tractinsky(2000)의 기존 연구를 사용 기간의 조절효과 관점에서 진행한 것에 의의를 가질 뿐만 아니라, 본 연구의 결과를 토대로 제품 개발이나 디자인 종사자들에게 HCI 관점의 시사점을 제공하고자 한다.

When a product is designed, user's requirements should be well analyzed and applied to the design so that the psychological and aesthetic factors of a product can be accurately conveyed to consumers. The essence of product development is to analyze the changes in the purchasing tendency of consumers and the needs of times, find out user experiences to apply to a design, and establish the objective of product development that well considers those. Designing should be recognized as one that designs even the sensitivity and experience created in the relationship with users, beyond the conventional notion of design that it draws the physical form of a product. As the subjects that design should consider have expanded like this, it has become important that today's design provides a new experience as well as simply develops formative elements based on the functions of an object. As a result, it becomes impossible to accomplish such objective only with the traditional design process that existing designers have stuck to so far. In this respect, this study is aimed to draw out a system and methodology for a user-oriented design process so that design can provide expanded experience to users from product form, applied material, and service.

The objective of this research is to identify the factors affecting the quality perception of consumer about the private brand and to investigate how the monetary utility of the private brand affects the consumer's preference. The main finding can be summarized in three points. The consumer's usage experience with PB have a positive but store image has no significant effect on the quality perception of PB. The perceived quality and monetary utility of PB has a significant effect on the quality perception while the perceived quality has stronger effect. The competitiveness of the national brand in the same store, post-usage attitude, the perceived quality, and perceived value have significant effect on the preference toward PB but monetary utility does not. The perceived effect has the strongest effect. This result suggests that even the value-seeking consumers prefer PB only when the perceived quality exceeds a certain limits. This study provides the strategic implications for retail managers and theoretical implication for the researcher studying PB.

In the era of the rapid development of a tremendous number of new technologies and products, the emotional communication between products and users has become an important research topic. However, the user's emotional measurement methods have not been widely used in the field of product design. Besides, as an important space that can improve people's life quality and urban entertainment at the emotional level, seaside space also creates an atmosphere of frequent emotional communication among tourists, landscape and environmental facilities. To deduce the applicability and advantages and disadvantages of the experiential emotional measurement method in product design, this paper took the seaside seat users of Haeundae as the object and carried out the Self-report of the experiential emotional measurement method. Specifically, the experiment of Self-report was divided into two stages: prior survey and subsequent main investigation. Then the hypothesis was verified by using Bivariate Regression and Multiple Regression through SPSS. Furthermore, through the experiment of the Self-report, the applicability and advantages and disadvantages of experiential emotional measurement method in product design were derived. In the future, based on the applicability, advantages and disadvantages of the experiential emotional measurement method derived in this study, it is expected to become the fundamental and reliable data for the development of emotional measurement methods that can be suitable for product design.
