This study analyzed the effects of hospital service quality, emotional attachment, and perceived value on customer satisfaction. In particular, the purpose of this study was to understand the role of emotional attachment and perceived value in the relationship between hospital service quality and customer satisfaction. For this purpose, the results of structural equation model analysis with the data collected by conducting a survey on customers visiting small and medium-sized hospitals were as follows. First, hospital service quality felt by hospital customers had a significant effect on emotional attachment and customer satisfaction, but had no significant effect on perceived value. Second, the emotional attachment felt by customers who visited the hospital had a significant effect on perceived value and customer satisfaction. Third, emotional attachment felt by customers in the relationship between hospital service quality and customer satisfaction had a significant mediating effect. Through the above results, it was confirmed that the service quality felt by customers visiting the hospital leads to attachment to the doctor's competence and medical technology competency, which leads to an increase in customer satisfaction through this attachment. The implications obtained based on these results are as follows. In order for the service quality felt by the customers who visit the hospital to lead to customer satisfaction, above all, it is important to focus on the emotional attachment they can have and find a strategy to improve the service quality. In other words, it is necessary to establish excellent medical staff and medical technology so that hospital customers can have high confidence in the competence of doctors and medical technology, and establish a public relations strategy that can effectively display these competences. Through these efforts, hospital customers will feel a strong attachment to doctors and medical technology, which will increase their satisfaction with the hospital.

In the rapidly expanding live-commerce market, one of the newer channels in e-commerce, consumer satisfaction appears to have plateaued. This study, therefore, aims to explore the impact of consumers' internal psychological states on the formation of service attitudes and offers practical solutions based on these findings. Whereas previous studies predominantly focused on external factors, this research examines the role of internal psychological states and perceived value in shaping consumer attitudes. Specifically, this study distinguishes between personal loneliness and social isolation, adding an altruistic dimension by incorporating interpersonal orientation, thereby setting it apart from earlier research. The focus of this study is on the psychological conditions of live-commerce consumers, investigating how factors such as loneliness, social isolation, and interpersonal orientation influence service attitudes, moderated by perceived economic value. The analysis reveals that both social isolation and interpersonal orientation significantly affect service attitudes, with social isolation exerting a stronger influence. However, no statistically significant relationship was found between loneliness and service attitude. Additionally, the effects of social isolation and interpersonal orientation on service attitudes were moderated by perceived economic value, which amplified their influence. These findings underscore the importance of incorporating consumer-centric psychological factors when developing strategies. A tailored approach that aligns with the unique characteristics of the live-commerce channel can help businesses provide customized services. This strategic approach is expected to support the development of effective operational strategies and practical solutions not only for live-commerce but also for future two-way communication channels that businesses and small enterprises may leverage.

최근 새로운 정보기술 패러다임인 유비쿼터스가 등장함에 따라 그에 관련된 다양한 서비스들이 도입되어 확산되고 있다. 그러나 이 경우 제품이나 서비스가 아무리 혁신적이고 훌륭하다 하더라도 고객이 실용적이지 못하다고 인지하거나 만족하지 못하면 그 제품이나 서비스는 시장에서 더 이상 확산되지 못할 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유비쿼터스 서비스의 만족도에 영향을 미치는 선행 요인과 결과요인에 대한 실증적 연구를 통해 기업이 향후 유비쿼터스 서비스를 개발하고 이용자를 확대하는데 시사점을 제공하고자 한다. 이에 본 연구는 기존 문헌을 바탕으로 유비쿼터스 서비스 만족도의 선행요인과 결과요인 모델을 제시하고 실증하였다. 그 결과 편재성, 상황기반 제공성, 친화성과 같은 유비쿼터스 특성요인은 유비쿼터스 서비스에 대한 지각된 유용성을 높이고, 이 지각된 유용성은 유비쿼터스 서비스에 대한 만족도을 높이고 만족도는 재이용의도와 추천의도에 유의한 영향을 마치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실증결과를 바탕으로 유비쿼터스 서비스 활성화를 위한 마케팅적 시사점을 토의하고, 연구의 한계점과 향후 연구방향을 마지막에 제시하였다.

This study has surveyed the professors and graduate students of school of medicine at K university, to analyze the medical library users' service quality perceptions on electronic journals and their effects on the customer satisfaction. Two groups of faculty members and graduate students has statistically significant different perceptions on the service quality of electronic journals. Among four sub-dimensions of service quality, there are no statistically significant differences in the perceptions between two groups in convenience of use, accessability, and content resources, but there is significant differences in supportiveness between two groups. In the perceptions on the satisfaction and value, faculty group has significantly higher perceptions on both of them. The most influential dimension of the service quality of the electronic journal for the perception on the satisfaction is supportiveness followed by convenience of use and content resources. Moderating effect of value on service quality, its sub-dimensions, and satisfaction is not proved statistically.
