This study empirically validate the impacts of WOM information characteristics on the WOM effect in accordance with SNS media due to the increased the WOM role under SNS. The key results showed that the more vivid, negative, and objective WOM information was, the more positive impacts on the intention to adopt information. In addition, the intention to adopt information had a positive impact on the re-WOM intention. Second, there was no significant difference between Facebook and Blog groups regarding the impacts of the WOM information characteristics on the WOM effect. This can be inferred from the fact that consumers recognize all SNS media as a single online medium regardless of their characteristics in the process of accepting and spreading information. Based on these results, this research drew the following implications. It conceptualized the information characteristics factors that influence the online information acceptance process and the relationship with WOM effects by focusing on SNS and high-tech products that are rapidly emerging. This study is also significant because it attempted to expand the characteristics of WOM information and WOM effects to Facebook and blogs, which are SNS media, and proposed a future research direction.

온라인상의 쇼핑에서 사용후기에 관한 많은 연구가 진행 중이지만, 사용후기를 보는 원인에 관한 분석에 대해서는 아직 부족함으로 연구를 진행하였다. 온라인상이기 때문에 가지는 위험 중에서도 사용후기를 통해서 어떤 위험을 가장 많이 가지고 있는지에 대해 우선 알아볼 필요성이 있을 것 같다. 이의 연구결과 기능적 위험을 가장 크게 지각하고 있었기 때문에 사용후기를 보는 이유로서의 근거가 될 수 있을 것이다. 둘째, 의류에 관련된 논문들을 보면 온라인상에서 구매를 꺼려하는 이유가 직접 눈으로 보고 만질 수 없다는 기능적 위험을 가장 크게 가지고 있었다. 그렇기 때문에 대리 시용구매를 할 수 있는 사용후기를 이용하여 의류제품을 온라인상에서 구매하는 것이 영향을 미치는 것인지에 대해 알아보고자 한다. 본 연구 결과, 긍정적인 후기를 보고 구매하려는 의도가 나타났었고 부정적인 후기를 보고 구매하지 않으려하므로 사용후기가 구매함에 있어 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 사용후기를 중심으로 메시지를 보고 메시지에 대한 태도와 제품에 대한 태도, 그리고 구매의도 뿐만 아니라 메시지의 유형에 따라서 구전 의도나 사이트 재방문 의도라는 구매 행동에도 차이가 날 것이라고 추측했다. 연구 결과를 보면 유형별로 각각 다르게 영향을 미치고 있었으며, 부정적인 메시지로 인해 제품에 대한 좋지 않은 태도를 가지게 됨으로써 제품을 구입하려는 사이트 재방문 의도는 나타나지 않았다.

The purpose of this research is to examine the effect of storytelling ads. To find out the effect, three different ads were created; one is no storytelling in ads, another is corporate storytelling ads, and the other is client storytelling ads. Each ads was exposed to high school students, and we analyzed their response to the ads such as ads recall, attitude toward ads, emotional response to ads, purchase intention, and the intention of word-of-mouth. The results showed that corporate storytelling ads among three ads was the most effective to recall the ads, and there was significant difference between corporate storytelling ads and no storytelling ads. In terms of attitude toward ads, there was significant difference between client storytelling and no storytelling ads. There were significant difference in positive emotion between client storytelling ads and no storytelling ads and between client storytelling ads and corporate storytelling ads, but no significant between corporate storytelling ads and no storytelling ads. Regarding emotion, students who were exposed to no storytelling ads showed the highest negative emotion, but the lowest negative emotion in client storytelling ads. There was significant difference in purchase intention between client storytelling and no storytelling ads and in the intention of word-of-mouth between corporate storytelling ads and no storytelling ads.

The current study examines how product type and attitudes toward the webtoon - a digital comic that originated in Korea - affect consumer responses to webtoon product placement (PPL). Specifically, it examines the following responses: the perception of PPL intrusiveness, attitudes toward the PPL, attitudes toward the brand, word-of-mouth intention, and purchase intention. It further investigates how PPL type interacts with product type and attitudes toward the webtoon on consumer responses to the PPL. The findings from a 2 (product type: functional vs. hedonic) × 2 (attitudes toward the webtoon: negative vs. positive) × 2 (PPL type: creative placement vs. on-set placement) between-subject experimental study suggest the following: consumer responses to PPL in webtoon is more positive when the product is hedonic (vs. functional) and when attitudes toward the webtoon are positive (vs. negative). This study further suggests when subjects felt favorably toward the webtoon, the creative placement produced weaker perceptions of PPL intrusiveness and more favorable attitudes toward the PPL than the on-set placement. On the other hand, when subjects felt negatively toward the webtoon, the on-set placement evoked weaker perceptions of intrusiveness and more favorable attitudes toward the PPL than did the creative placement.

This study aims to investigate the relationship between service recovery justice, residual emotions, and customer behavior. It empirically verifies that low justice in service recovery affects residual emotions and, in turn, has an impact on customers' negative behaviors. Furthermore, this research distinguishes customer-brand relationship quality into emotional relationship quality and cognitive relationship quality and seeks to validate that the type of relationship quality may influence the extent to which the justice of recovery processes affects residual emotions. Data was collected through surveys, and hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling. The research findings indicate that among the dimensions of service recovery justice, procedural justice and interactional justice significantly influence residual emotions. Moreover, residual emotions have a significant impact on both the intention to revisit and the intention to engage in negative word-of-mouth. In addition, the impact of distributive justice and procedural justice on residual emotions was found to be higher for cognitive relationship quality than emotional relationship quality, and the impact of interactional justice on residual emotions was found to be higher for emotional relationship quality than cognitive relationship quality.

The purpose of this study was to examine the mediating role of attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control on the relationships between past behavior and customers' intention to engage in negative word-of-mouth communication of dissatisfaction responses. Results of the study demonstrated that the inclusion of past behavior improved the predictability of the negative word-of-mouth communication of dissatisfaction response intentions. Furthermore, the mediating analyses indicated that the influence of past behavior was mediated by the mediator. In the contests of negative word-of-mouth communication, the effect of past behavior on intention was partially mediated by attitude, subjective norm and perceived behavioral control.

Internet is having strong impact on the consumer's decision making process. Information search has been done actively through internet today. The online reviews can be crucial information cue to evaluate the alternarive products. The online WOM(Word-Of-Mouth) effect depends on the characteristics of information sender, receiver, and WOM. This study is to examine the influence of the online word of mouth on the consumer purchase intention and the moderating role of product involvement, consumer regulatory focus and self-efficacy. Positive customer reviews on the products influence the purchase intention positively and negative customer reviews influence it negatively. Moderating role of involvement in the causal relation between the valence of online reviews and purchase intention is tested. In case of positive WOM, it is predicted that purchase intention for high involvement products is higher than that of low involvement. In case of negative WOM, purchase intention for high involvement product is lower than that of low involvement product. And this study invetigate the moderating role of regulatory focus. In case of positive WOM, it is predicted that promotion focus oriented consumers have higher purchase intention than prevention focus oriented consumers. In case of negative WOM, prediction is that prevention focus oriented consumers have lower purchase intention than promotion focus oriented consumers. Then we examine the moderating role of self efficacy in the causal relation between the valence of online reviews and purchase intention. In case of positive WOM, it is predicted that consumers with low self efficacy have higher purchase intention than consumers with high self efficacy. In case of negative WOM, it is predicted that consumers with low self efficacy have lower purchase intention than consumers with high self efficacy. Emprical results support our prediction and four hypotheses derived from our conceptual framework are all accepted. This study suggest that the level of product involvement, consumer regulatory focus and the level of self-efficacy influence the consumer responses of the valence of online reviews. Therefore marketers need to manage online reviews based on the level of product involvement, regulatory focus orientation and the level of self-efficacy of target consumers.
