In recent years, with the continuous integrative development of e-commerce and social media, social commerce, as a trust-centered social transaction mode, has become an important performance form of e-commerce. The good experience of online community and abundant user-generated content (UGC) attract more and more users and businesses to participate in the community contribution. In this context, the cost of accessing information is continuously decreasing, which not only makes the purchase process more concise and efficient, but also greatly increases the possibility of consumers' impulsive consumption. However, there are very few empirical studies on the internal influencing mechanism of consumers' impulsive consumption based on the characteristics of UGC for social commerce. In view of this, based on S-O-R model, this study constructs a model of consumers' impulsive consumption in the context of social commerce from the characteristics of UGC, with perceived risk as the mediating variable and tie strength as the moderating variable. The results show that content authenticity, content usefulness, and content valence of UGC have significant negative impacts on consumers' risk perception in the process of purchase decision-making, and consumers' perceived risk has a significant negative impact on consumers' impulsive consumption. Meanwhile, the tie strength between UGC producer and UGC receiver plays a moderating role between content usefulness and perceived risk, as well as between perceived risk and impulsive consumption. Finally, combined with the above findings, this study provides effective suggestions for relevant participants in social commerce in terms of business management.

As the Internet and smartphones prevail, this study investigated the purchasing factors of a new beauty marketing method, the social commerce, and verified the relationship of such purchasing factors to consumer satisfaction and repurchasing intentions. In order to verify the validity of purchasing factors, five sub-factors, such as service, price, interaction, convenience, and interest were classified, while consumer satisfaction and repurchasing intentions are grouped into one factor, using data about 20-39 years old. According to results of this study, purchasing factors in the beauty service markets through social commerce that had effects on the consumer satisfaction were price, service, convenience, and interest, but no relationship was found with interaction. We can predict that consumers buy not based on community activities among buyers or purchasing comments of others, but rather his/her own subjective thoughts and opinions about the services. As the result of repurchasing intention according to purchasing factors, affecting sub-factors were price, service, and convenience. Repurchasing intention is an positive response that reflects satisfactions. Since low price, satisfaction on the service, and convenience for busy modern people should be met, repurchasing intentions are not affected by interest, but rather systematic and professional service. Also, higher satisfaction on service raises repurchasing intention. In this study, it is clear that not only purchasing factors through social-commerce effect the satisfaction and the repurchasing intention, but also consumer satisfaction mediates partly purchasing factors and the repurchasing intention. And as sub-factors of purchasing factors, price, service, or convenience are more important to the consumer satisfaction than community or replies activities. Thus differentiated and professional customer service, the establishment and enhancement of trendy marketing should improve long term repurchasing intentions. This will lead to the increasing revenue of personal-shop and the developments of beauty markets, so strengthening product sourcing and promotion suitable for mobile shoppers are essential.

소셜 네트워크 서비스는 가트너에서 2011년에 이어 2012년에도 각광받을 기술의 하나로 선정된 만큼 미래 인터넷의 핵심 키워드 중 하나로도 뽑히며, 엔터테인먼트, 검색, 방송, 커머스 등의 여러 가지 서비스와 직접 연결된다. 이러한 소셜 네트워크 서비스 가운데 하이브리드형 서비스는 사용자의 정보를 관리 및 파악하여 사용자가 원하는 제품을 예측하고 추천해주고 있으며, 이를 위해 그래프 마이닝 기술을 적용하고 있다. 하지만 그래프 마이닝 기술은 아직 복잡한 그래프 구조의 데이터에서 정보를 추출하기에 제약사항들이 발생하므로 이에 대하여 많은 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 그래프 마이닝 기술을 나아가 더 발전시켜 활용하면 기존의 하이브리드형 서비스에서 사용자의 정보를 파악하여 충성도를 높여줄 뿐 아니라 기업에서의 타켓 마케팅과 원투원 마케팅을 가능하게 해주고 기존 사용자에 대한 교차 판매와 격상판매의 전략들을 도출할 수 있을 것이다.
