무선인터넷 서비스에 대해 본 연구자는 사용자들이 휴대폰을 이용해 무선인터넷 서비스를 사용할 때 어떠한 동기를 가지고 사용을 하는지에 대해 실증연구를 하였다. 설문조사는 무선인터넷 사용자를 대상으로 온라인 설문조사를 실시하였으며, 요인분석과 회귀분석을 통해 결과를 분석하였다. 무선인터넷의 접속 시작 단계부터 과금이 되므로 접속을 위해 버튼을 누르는 행위 자체를 서비스의 소비(consumption)로 정의하였다. 사용동기는 내생적이며 즐거움을 추구하는 hedonic한 측면과 어떠한 과업을 수행하기 위한 실용적인 utilitarian한 측면으로 나누어 살펴보았다. 종전의 소비에 대한 hedonic/utilitarian 측면에 대한 연구는 유선인터넷 이용과 소비자 쇼핑행동에서 많이 이루어졌다. 이들 연구를 바탕으로 해서 무선인터넷 서비스 사용동기에 대한 모형을 추출하였다. 두 가지 동기요인에 의해 무선인터넷 고객집단을 네 집단으로 세분화하여 이들의 휴대폰 보유실태, 무선인터넷 사용실태, 속성 중요도 평가 및 만족도, 인구 통계적 특성을 비교해 본 결과 유의한 차이가 발견되었다. 본 연구는 무선인터넷 서비스에 대한 연구를 하는 연구자들과 서비스 제공업체에 무선인터넷 서비스 이용자들에 대한 이론적/실무적 시사점을 줄 것이다.

As communicating with friends by recording their daily lives in video clips has become a trend for the Z-generation or the Millennial generation, interest in the vlog is increasing. This study analyzed the effects of motivation and user characteristics on use satisfaction and intention to use vlog in 168 participants in their 20s and 30s who have experience using YouTube vlog. The results of the study showed all hypotheses established in this study were adopted. Specifically, habits and killing time, information-seeking, entertainment and relaxation, voyeurism, openness and emotional identification were found to have a positive effect on the use satisfaction. Also, satisfaction with the use of vlog has a significant impact on continuous use intention. Therefore, it can be seen that exploring the vlog will provide theoretical and practical implications.

This study investigated how Schwartz' value system(1992) would interfere with SNS users' motivations and behavioral responses. The study result shows that values are characterized in terms of openness, mutual reciprocity, self enhancement, normative compliance, and security. Each of them exerted differential impact on SNS usage motives, social capital, ad response, and word-of-mouth, among others. The five values were used as an input for segmenting SNS users and clustering method produced four value segments; experience seeker, interdependent sympathizer, self enhancer, and norm-bound. Each value group not only influenced SNS perceptions and behavioral responses differently, but also showed a systematic relationship with SNS service types. The study findings demonstrate that Schwartz's value system provides a very useful theoretical basis for understanding the psychological mechanism underlying SNS usage.

Despite the ever-increasing smartphone addiction of adolescents and a variety of consequent problems not much research has been conducted on the issue. It is time to prepare a set of countermeasures to protect them from the addiction. The central purpose of the current paper is to identify how use motives, self-control and social withdrawal affect their smartphone addiction. It was found (i) that the motives of information acquisition, social relationship, amusement and use of leisure time exert significant influence on smartphone addiction, (ii) that less self-control and greater impulsiveness result in greater addiction, and (iii) that social withdrawal of users also have significant effect on smartphone addiction. Such findings are expected to provide base data for any attempt to develop countermeasures against addiction. It is desirable that we had better check the play activities of adolescents and develop self-control programs to help them alleviate impulsiveness than simply impose strict restrictions on the use of smartphones.

This study takes a uses and gratification theory based approach to identifying the relation between TV home-shopping channel use motivation and purchase intention. The results are summarized as follows. First, in respect of TV home-shopping channel use motivation, the analysis results reveal three factors: convenience, information seeking, and entertainment. Among these, the factor of convenience was the first in the order of importance. Secondly, 1)It is found that use motivation also has some limited influence on purchase intention. 2)Selectivity and involvement degree, the sub-categories of audience activity, are found to be the variables with the highest prediction ability, suggesting a need to give a particular attention to them. 3)In addition, viewing amount, a variable of use behavior, is shown to have a significant influence on purchase intention. The followings are the implications of the study results. First, marketing strategies that enable maximization of shopping convenience are required. Second, there is a need to approach the delivery of TV home-shopping contents as a kind of broadcasting contents on their own rather than merely a medium for selling goods.

This study investigated the types of intention to use micro-blogging service. In this study, we classified micro-blogging users' motivations using Q methodology which enables measure objectivity with subjective activity like individual thinking and feeling. The results of this study showed that micro-blogging service users' motivationswere classified into four types. Type 1 is 'relationship oriented type' and Type 2 is 'self-expression type.' Type 3 is 'time consumption type' and Type 4 is 'information seeking type.' The findings imply that the characteristics of each user type can be utilized to customize micro-blogging services.

This study is to investigate the compulsive use of the social media platform, YouTube. For this purpose, this study built a research model that considered how the personality trait perspective(agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, extraversion, openness) and the use motivation perspective(utilitarian, hedonic and social use motivations) work together to explain compulsive use of YouTube. The survey method was used for this paper, and data from a total of 165 were used for the analysis. And structural equation model was used to analyze the data. The results of this empirical study is summarized as followings. First, both agreeableness and conscientiousness have a negative effect on compulsive use of YouTube. Second, utilitarian use motivation has a negative effect on compulsive use of YouTube. The results of this study are meaningful in that it not only alerts YouTube users to the risks of compulsive YouTube use, but also helps them to develop self-management strategies.

The purpose of this research is to examine the empirical effect of participating motives for lifelong education on the releasing of controlled inferiority, the gratification of retained desire, and voluntary resocialization. The motives for lifelong education were divided into an external viewpoint focusing on consumers' behaviors and an internal viewpoint based on activity of the ego. External motives were divided into pragmatic, entertaining, and relational motives, while internal motives were divided into self-realization, self-existence, and self-participation motives. The results show that the pragmatic motive and the self-realization motive, the entertaining motive and the self-existence motive, and the relational motive and the self-participation motive are highly related to each other. It was found that the pragmatic motive and the self-realization motive affected the lifelong education participants' release of controlled inferiority relatively stronger, the entertaining motive and the self-existence motive affected participants' gratification of retained desire relatively stronger, the relational motive and the self-participation motive affected participants' voluntary resocialization relatively stronger.

Recently, the emphasis on self-directed learning and lifelong education is increasing the importance of school libraries in the curriculum. Accordingly, various studies have been conducted mainly from a structural, institutional and operational point of view. However, more research is necessary on the micro topics such as school library users' autonomous intrinsic motivations in the sense that school libraries play key roles in autonomy-based self-directed education. This study aims at finding out what types of school library use motivations are more important and the degree to which the use motivations affect the school library service quality based on the self-determination theory. In addition, this study examines how the use motivations and the perceived service quality vary depending on the school grade of the library users. Based on a focus-group-interview pilot study, a questionnaire survey was administered on the effects of school library motivations on perceived library service quality to 588 students from 5 high schools and 2 middle schools in Seoul. When the service quality and its components, service affect, information control, and library as place were set as dependent variables, in all these four cases, intrinsic motivations were more significant than extrinsic motivations. In addition, when middle school students and high school students were selected as separate analysis target groups, the results of both analyses show that the higher the intrinsic motivations were, the higher the perceived service quality was. The contribution of this study is that it applies the self-determination theory to school library service, measures the influence of motivation type based on the theoretical basis, and focuses on micro aspects to improve school library services.
