This research describes the comparison broker's role and its effectiveness measurement framework of comparison shopping. We verified seller-led comparison challenge method provide comparison information of products to buyers more efficiently. Buyer's satisfaction of purchase (S) can be defined as an interactive function between seller's competitiveness vector (P) of products that supplied to the market, and buyer's informed level vector (B) of products that is known from a lot of sources. Then the buyer's informed level can be changed through the information analysis among products by transformation process using comparison matrix (C). So the role of comparison shopping is to construct a comparison matrix and to serve it to the buyers, and to change the buyer's informed level. The changed informed level influences a buyer's satisfaction, that improved satisfaction of purchase is defined as the effectiveness of comparison shopping. As a perfect construction and usage of comparison matrix is impossible, a more efficient method for improving the comparison effectiveness is the comparison challenge. This research shows that comparison shopping makes 9.32% and comparison challenge makes 19.11% enhancement of comparison effectiveness through television market data experiments.

인지모델(Cognitive Model)에 의한 사용성 평가는 실제 실험에 의한 방법에 비해 시간, 노력, 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 여러 인지모델 중 ACT-R(Adaptive Control of Thought Rational)은 인간의 모든 인지과정을 상세하게 묘사할 수 있어 다른 모델보다 정확히 인간의 과제 수행을 정량적으로 예측할 수 있다. 그러나 ACT-R 모델을 수립하기 위해서는 인간의 지각, 주의, 기억 인출 등의 처리 과정과 행동 선택 및 수행에 필요한 과제 수행 규칙을 매우 상세하게 분석 및 기술해야 하기 때문에, GUI(Graphic User Interface) 환경에서 운용되는 메뉴 인터페이스와 같이 다양한 시각적 정보의 처리가 요구되는 과제에 대한 모델을 수립하는데는 많은 시간과 노력이 요구된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 GUI 환경에서 전문가 수준의 과제 수행을 예측할 수 있는 간략화한 ACT-R 모델 수립 방안을 제안하고, 이를 이용하여 상용 통계 분석 소프트웨어의 과제 수행도를 예측하였다. 그 결과 실제 실험을 통한 측정 결과와 간략화한 ACT-R 모델의 예측 결과가 잘 일치하였으며 본 연구에서 제시한 간략화한 ACTR 모델이 메뉴 인터페이스의 사용성 평가에 효율적으로 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

There are many researches about effects of consumer innovativeness on the new product adoption behavior. However most of these studies regard this construct as one dimensional concept so that the extant studies suggest very ambiguous results about the relationship between consumer innovativeness and adoption behavior. This study subdivides the construct as cognitive innovativeness and sensory one and suggest these two types of consumer innovativeness affect on the risk perception of the potential adopter differently when the consumer adopt new product. In the empirical research through regression analysis and structure equation model with 217 samples, the study shows the consumer who have high level of cognitive innovativeness are more sensitive to functional risk of new products compared to one who have high level of sensory innovativeness. On the other side, sensory innovative consumer perceive social risk more when they adopt new products than cognitive innovator who have higher level of cognitive innovativeness. The result means there are dual paths on the relationship between consumer innovativeness and new products adoption behavior. Unlike the early studies, this study shows that there's dual path in relationship between the consumer's innovativeness and new product adoption. That is the consumer who have higher sensory innovativeness perceive the social risk of new products more sensitively than functional risk but the consumer who have cognitive innovativeness perceive functional risk more. So, new product adoption behavior would be different depending on the sensory or cognitive innovativeness.

Educational evaluation is not the work to rank learners hierarchically, but the thing to increase the educational effectiveness by solving a learner's problem and improving the education process from the proper evaluation. The conventional evaluation systems have measured a learner's recognition level by dichotomy. Although they support the evaluation depending on a learner's academic ability and supply the feedback for wrong selection, it is insufficient to take out study-motive and give the establishment for a guidance point of learning. In this paper, we propose the web-based individual adaptive testing system in considering partial score for a learner. Our system are effective to estimate the ability of learner by considering partial score in detail and offer an feedback study from the self-diagnosis function for a learning results.

Context-aware computing, as a core of smart space development, has been widely regarded as useful in realizing individual service provision. However, most of context-aware services so fat are in its early stage to be dispatched for actual usage in the real world, caused mainly by user's privacy concerns. Moreover, since legacy context-aware services have focused on acquiring in an automatic manner the extra-personal context such as location, weather and objects near by, the services are very limited in terms of quality and variety if the service should identify intra-personal context such as attitudes and privacy concern, which are in fact very useful to select the relevant and timely services to a user. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to propose a novel methodology to infer the user's privacy concern as intra-personal context in an intelligent manner. The proposed methodology includes a variety of stimuli from outside the person and then performs model-based reasoning with social theory models from model base to predict the user's level of privacy concern semi-automatically. To show the feasibility of the proposed methodology, a survey has been performed to examine the performance of the proposed methodology.
