본 연구는 국내의 CATV 홈쇼핑에서 최근 문제가 되고 있는 소비자들의 비윤리적인 행위에 관한 연구로서 소비자들의 비윤리적인 행위에 영향을 미치는 요인을 규명하고 이러한 요인들이 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 분석하고자 한다. 기존의 심리학 분야에서 소비자들의 윤리의식에 관한 연구와 오프라인 상의소비자 비윤리적인 행위에 관한 연구에서의 요인들을 홈쇼핑의 상황에 맞게 수정하여 홈쇼핑에 적용시켜보았다. 비윤리적인 행위에 영향을 미치는 요인을 신뢰와 전환비용, 그리고 충성도로 보았다. 설문조사를 통해서 분석한 결과 홈쇼핑에 대한 신뢰와 전환비용은 소비자들이홈쇼핑에 대한 충성도를 만드는데 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나 4단계의 충성도는 소비자들의 비윤리적인 행위의도에 유의한 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 홈쇼핑 사들은 소비자들과의 관계를 보다 탄탄하게 구축하기 위해서는 전환비용을 지각하도록 하는 것보다 소비자 스스로가 홈쇼핑 사를 신뢰할 수 있도록 관리한다면 소비자들의 비윤리적 행위는 감소시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

기업 간, 브랜드 간의 치열한 경쟁은 날이 갈수록 심해지고 있으며, 좋은 제품을 만들 수 있는 기술력이나 우수한 인력, 양호한 재무능력은 기업이 생존하기 위해 기본적으로 갖추어야 할 필요조건이 되었다. 그런데 기업이 성공하기 위해서는 어떤 능력이 필요할까? 바로 마케팅능력이다. 마케팅 능력이 있어야 충성도 있는 고객을 창출할 수 있고 시장점유율 제고를 통해서 목표하는 바람직한 성과를 산출할 수 있다. 마케팅 부문의 능력이나 지식은 타 부문에 비해서 기업성과에 미치는 영향이 크며, 궁극적으로는 기업의 지속적 경쟁우위를 달성하기 위하여 반드시 갖추어야 할 요소라는 것을 많은 연구들은 보여주고 있다. 이때 기업이나 브랜드가 윤리적인 모습을 소비자에게 보여준다면 경쟁자에 비해서 훨씬 용이하게 충성도를 이끌어 낼 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 마케팅윤리는 매우 중요한 이슈이다. 최근 소비자의 감정을 상하게 하는 국내외 기업행태가 매스컴에 자주 오르내리고 있는데, 이러한 소식을 접한 소비자들은 해당기업에 대해서 부정적인 인식을 가지게 되어 제품이나 서비스를 구매하지 않으며, 주변사람들에게 좋지 않은 입소문을 내기도 하므로 기업의 마케팅 담당자는 윤리적인 측면을 고려하여 의사결정을 내려야한다. 기업의 사회적 책임(CSR)과 마케팅윤리는 상호 연관된 개념으로 보아도 무방하다. 그런데 마케팅의 윤리적인 측면을 고려하다보면 의사결정 상황이 마케팅 분야에만 국한되지 않거나 소비자의 이익과 기업의 이익이 상충하는 경우가 빈번하게 발생하게 되어 의사결정을 어렵게 만든다. 특히, 스타트업의 경우는 기존기업에 비해서 업력이 길지 않고 우선적으로 처리해야하는 업무가 많다보니 마케팅 윤리적 측면을 중요하게 생각하지 않는 경향이 많다. 하지만 마케팅 윤리는 단시간에 구축하거나 보완할 수 있는 것이 아니므로 스타트업의 경영자들은 이 문제를 중요하게 생각하여야 할 것이다. 본 연구는 기존의 마케팅 윤리연구 동향을 분석하여 스타트업의 마케팅윤리 연구의 방향을 제시하고자 한다.

Understanding ethical fashion consumers in Korea is essential for the expansion of the ethical fashion market. This study analyzed ethical consumers in Korea in an examination of the factors that influence ethical purchase behavior and attitudes. The differences between ethical fashion consumers and non-ethical fashion consumers were investigated using eight variables (perceived consumer effectiveness (PCE), self-direction, benevolence, universalism, social responsibility, perceived behavioral control, face saving, and group conformity). Data were collected by means of a questionnaire through both on-line and off-line surveys from April 20 to June 7, 2009. Only the respondents knowledgeable of ethical products or ethical consumption were asked to complete the questionnaire. A total of 494 samples were used for analyses. Using independent samples t-test, the differences in each variable between two groups were examined. There were significant differences between ethical fashion consumers and non-ethical fashion consumers in attitudes toward ethical consumption behavior, behavioral intention, PCE, self-direction, universalism, social responsibility, and face saving variables. The factors influencing attitude and behavior intention were investigated by step-wise regression analyses. For ethical fashion consumers, the attitudes to ethical consumption behavior were largely influenced by PCE and benevolence. Social responsibility was the most predictable variable in guiding behavioral intention. Behavioral intention was also influenced by benevolence and attitude. Group conformity was found to be negatively correlated with behavioral intention. The findings of this study provide significant guidance for marketers of ethical fashion products. This study is the start of ethical fashion consumer research in Korea and can develop into variable subfields in the future.

This study is to investigate the degree of consumers' non-ethical perceptions and behaviors, and to explore related variables such as demographic variables, idealism and relativism. The data used in this study were obtained by surveying 237 college students from 10th through 24th of October, 2002 in Kimhae city. We conducted a statistical analysis of the data, using percentiles, frequencies, means, t-test, ANOVA, and Multiple Regression. Consumers' non-ethical perceptions and behaviors were measured by modifying Consumer Ethics Scale(CES, Muncy & Vitell, 1992). The CES scale comprises 4 sub-factors: actively benefiting from illegal activity(CES1), passively benefiting(CES2), actively benefiting from questionable action(CES3), no harm/no foul(CES4). Average scores of consumers' non-ethical perceptions and behaviors marked below a mid-value, which means that most of the students are basically ethical. The related variable of consumers' non-ethical perceptions was idealism. The related variables of consumers' non-ethical behaviors were idealism and the amount of discretionary money. The results show that most of the participants are basically ethical as a consumer. However, the results related with the CES4 sub-factor which includes consumer attitudes toward copyrights of consumer softwares and music CDs tell us that they are relatively non-ethical. This claims an importance of consumer education to college students in regards to intellectual property.

This study examined the relationship between consumers' ethical ideologies and consumers' perceptions of fashion counterfeits. Forsyth's Ethics Position Questionnaire(EPQ) measuring consumers' ethical ideologies-- idealism and relativism -- was used. College students enrolled at a large university in a metropolitan area participated(N=314). There were no significant differences between counterfeit purchasers and non-purchasers on their ethical ideologies, while there were significant differences between these two groups on their perceptions toward two of the perceptions toward counterfeit factors: economic and psychological uncertainty. Idealism was not significantly related to participants' perceptions toward fashion counterfeit, while relativism was positively related only to participants' perceptions concerning the return-related uncertainty of fashion counterfeits. The results of a multiple regression revealed that consumers' economic, psychological, and return-related uncertainty were significant predictors of intent to buy counterfeit goods.

The purpose of this study was to understand the consumer non-ethical behavior and the interaction with salespersons and their relationships. For this purpose, adults in Chunlabuk-do were surveyed and 675 questionnaires were analyzed using SPSS statistical program. The results of the analysis were as follows: 1. Three dimensions of the consumer non-ethical behaviors were the unconscience, the illegality, and the deception. Two dimensions of the interaction with salespersons were the passive and the assertive interactions. 2. There were two clusters respectively; ethical and non-ethical groups for the consumer non-ethical behavior/ passive and assertive groups for the interaction with salespersons. 3. Generally, the more educated and the older persons were, the less they tended to be ethical and the more passively they tended to interact with the salespersons. 4. There were significant differences between the clusters of consumer non-ethical behavior and those of interaction. The non-assertive interaction group were found more in the non-ethical group and the assertive interaction group more in the ethical groups.

This study examined the levels of consumers' non-ethical behaviors in the marketplace and the factors affecting each category of them. The data were collected from 222 adults in Busan and Gyeongnam areas through a self-administered questionnaire. Frequencies, Cronbach's alpha, Pearson's correlation analysis and multiple regression analyses were conducted by SPSS Windows. The results from this study were as follows: First, respondents showed the highest level of non-ethical behavior in the no harm/no foul category, while the lowest level in the actively benefiting from questionable behavior category. Second, as the results of multiple regression analyses, age was significant in all categories of non-ethical behaviors. In addition, religion, consumer knowledge and consumer role attitudes were found to be significant in some categories. These results imply that the consumer ethics should be included in the consumer education for more effective consumer behaviors of young generation.
