The current study examines how product type and attitudes toward the webtoon - a digital comic that originated in Korea - affect consumer responses to webtoon product placement (PPL). Specifically, it examines the following responses: the perception of PPL intrusiveness, attitudes toward the PPL, attitudes toward the brand, word-of-mouth intention, and purchase intention. It further investigates how PPL type interacts with product type and attitudes toward the webtoon on consumer responses to the PPL. The findings from a 2 (product type: functional vs. hedonic) × 2 (attitudes toward the webtoon: negative vs. positive) × 2 (PPL type: creative placement vs. on-set placement) between-subject experimental study suggest the following: consumer responses to PPL in webtoon is more positive when the product is hedonic (vs. functional) and when attitudes toward the webtoon are positive (vs. negative). This study further suggests when subjects felt favorably toward the webtoon, the creative placement produced weaker perceptions of PPL intrusiveness and more favorable attitudes toward the PPL than the on-set placement. On the other hand, when subjects felt negatively toward the webtoon, the on-set placement evoked weaker perceptions of intrusiveness and more favorable attitudes toward the PPL than did the creative placement.

"Time versus money effect" refers to a favorable shift in consumers' responses activated by time(vs. money). In general, how people spend their time or money could reflect one's personal identity. Previous research indicates that drawing individuals' attention to time makes more effective in product satisfaction rather than money. Also, whereas because time is experienced as an experience, time activates more positive product satisfaction for experiential product rather than materialistic product, money has the reverse effect because money relates with possessions. Present study examined the effect of time and money on consumers' attitudes and decisions and the role of product type including smartphone. In experiment 1, participants evaluated their experiences or their own products(family restaurant, smartphone, premium jean). They satisfied more with their smartphones when activated by time than by money. In experiment 2, 3 image ads, a promotion image ad for each product(family restaurant, smartphone, premium jean), were offered to find the effect of time and money in promotion ads. The interaction effects between activating condition and product type were revealed on the product attitudes, product satisfaction, purchase intent, and personal connection reflecting the consistent time effect on smartphone. In addition, the main effect of the activating condition was significant which meant time activating ads were more effective than money activating ads.

When consumers choose healthy foods, they base their buying decisions on health-related food labeling and quality assessment of taste, health, and price. Moreover, both purchase experience and opinions of family and friends affect consumer choices. Focusing on these points, this study examined the effects of health-related food labeling on consumer choices by adding two variables-quality assessment of taste, health, and price and purchase experience-to the model of the theory of planned behavior. We also used structural equation modeling to test our hypotheses. In the study, health-related food labeling includes organic labeling, nutrient claims, and food additive labeling. We conducted a mail survey among 300 married women who buy cheese slices for their children more than once a month. It was discovered that health-related food labeling positively affected the level of quality assessment of taste, health, and price, and consequently led to positive attitudes and purchase intentions. Particularly, health-related food labeling positively influenced attitude toward using products without assessing the quality of taste, health, and price. The level of quality assessment of price positively affected attitude toward using and purchasing products, and purchase experience positively affected attitude toward using and purchasing products, and purchase intentions. The relationship between attitude to purchasing products and purchase intentions was the most positive, and the relationship between perceived behavioral control and purchase intentions was not significant. Overall, this study essentially contributes to the development of a theoretical framework of food labeling and consumer choices, which includes quality assessment of taste, health, and price and purchase experience, by using the theory of planned behavior.

This study analyzed the structural correlation between parent brand attitude, including attitude toward the advertisement, attitude toward the store and brand attitude, and brand extension evaluation, relationships among which are conceived as a brand extension evaluation process. The result of analysis, revealed statistical significances of the differences in the effect levels between attitude toward store and brand attitude, between brand attitude and brand extension evaluation level, and between brand extension evaluation level and purchase intention of an extended product depending on the choice of distribution channel type. Therefore the evaluation level of brand extension should be analyzed by structural relationship model based on the consumer behavior's viewpoint with distribution channel type and it can provide the important information for restructuring distribution channel and increase the level of the successful brand extension.

정보사회로의 급격한 변화와 소비자들의 편리함에 대한 욕구의 증가로 최근 홈쇼핑은 새로운 유통환경을 창조하며 기업의 마케팅 활동과 소비자의 소비 구매 행태를 크게 변화시키고 있다. 이는 쌍방적 구조로 이루어져 있는 전형적인 직접마케팅 형태 중 하나로 일반 유통 구조와는 색다른 촉진 기법을 사용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 홈쇼핑의 대표적인 촉진기법 중 하나인 희소성 메시지의 광고효과를 살펴보는 바, 각각의 고/저관여 제품에 있어 두 유형의 희소성 메세지(주문 가능한 제품의 수량을 제한하는 주장, 제품의 주문 가능한 시간을 제한하는 주장)와 희소성 메세지가 포함되지 않은 광고 사이에 광고 효과에 차이가 있는지 비교 분석함으로 희소성 메시지의 광고효과를 살펴보고자 하였다. 카탈로그를 통한 실험 연구 결과, 저관여제품이나 고관여제품 모두에서 시간을 한정하거나 수량을 한정하는 희소성 메세지와 비희소성 메세지간에 소비자의 광고에 대한 태도나 광고상표에 대한 태도 및 구매의도에 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 단지 시간을 한정하는 희소성 메시지는 유의한 차이를 보였으나 그 차이 역시 미미하였다. 이로써 카탈로그에서는 고관여제품, 저관여제품 모두에서 희소성 메세지의 광고 효과를 확인할 수 없었다. 따라서 카탈로그에서 희소성 메시지는 소비자에게 영향을 미칠만한 광고효과를 창출하지 못하므로 광고 효과를 강화시키는데는 적합한 수단이라고 볼 수 없으며, 희소성 메세지를 활용하는 것은 무의미함을 알 수 있었다. 저관여제품에서 희소성 메시지의 효과가 입증되지 못한 이유는 실험 매체로 이용한 카탈로그 자체가 Krugman(1965)이 주장한 저관여 정보처리 과정을 거치는 저관여 매체이기 때문이라 추측된다. 그리고 고관여 제품의 경우 시간을 한정하거나 수량을 한정하는 희소성 메시지의 비효과성이 입증된 것은 정교화 가능성 모델(ELM)에서 주장되는 연구와 일치함을 의미한다.

The objective of this research is to identify the factors affecting the quality perception of consumer about the private brand and to investigate how the monetary utility of the private brand affects the consumer's preference. The main finding can be summarized in three points. The consumer's usage experience with PB have a positive but store image has no significant effect on the quality perception of PB. The perceived quality and monetary utility of PB has a significant effect on the quality perception while the perceived quality has stronger effect. The competitiveness of the national brand in the same store, post-usage attitude, the perceived quality, and perceived value have significant effect on the preference toward PB but monetary utility does not. The perceived effect has the strongest effect. This result suggests that even the value-seeking consumers prefer PB only when the perceived quality exceeds a certain limits. This study provides the strategic implications for retail managers and theoretical implication for the researcher studying PB.
