Purpose Although companies occupied the network market take the advantageous position first and can be successful in securing users over a certain size, it is important to satisfy the customers' demand and prevent the outflow of users toward a new alternative SNS. What is more, there are frequent changes in the flow of users toward new SNSs. Despite these dynamic market circumstances, there is a lack of research to explain the switching behaviors of SNS users. Design/methodology/approach The objective of this study is to explain and verify a specified migration theory(Push-Pull-Mooring model) focused on SNS fatigue in the psychological point of view, as well as reviewing previous studies on functional and technical characteristics of SNSs themselves. Moreover, this study tried to highlight factors affecting users actual SNS switch rather than their switching intention. Findings According to the statistical analysis, the most influenced pull factor to switch SNS was the alternative attractiveness. On the other hand, undesired relationship burden, service innovation and important mooring factors to prevent users' SNS switch. This study has a significant contribution to the theory, which analyzed users' actual SNS switch, and examined SNS users' psychological factors(SNS fatigue), reviewing the characteristics of existing services. To secure more users and to keep them, companies providing social network service need to develop differentiated strategies by analyzing psychological characteristics of various users.

This study is aimed to find out which factors among firm-specific resources, industry-based competition, and institutional conditions affect strategies for Korean IT manufacturing companies when they expand their business overseas, especially to Vietnam in this study. Also, it attempts to reveal which strategies among cost reduction, mass production, and localization affect performance of overseas expansion. Based on Strategy Tripod Theory as an integrating point-of-view embracing resource-based view, industry-based view, and institution-based view, research model was developed and tested through the survey of 83 Korean IT manufacturing companies expanded their business to Vietnam. Research findings show that (1) communication competency, industry competitiveness, industry attractiveness, and regulation of partner country affect cost reduction strategy. (2) International experience, communication competency, international orientation, and competitiveness is significantly associated with mass production strategy. (3) And international experience, communication competency, and industry competitiveness affect localization. (4) Ultimately, mass production strategy and localization strategy significantly increase performance of expansion to Vietnam. The theoretical contribution of this study is to adopt an integrative approach based on strategy tripod theory. As practical implications, it suggests factors and strategies that IT manufacturing companies interested in expansion to Vietnam should consider. In sum, we believe this study can contribute to Korean IT manufacturing industry by suggesting key success factors and appropriate strategies for overseas expansion.

The purpose of the study was to examine the effect of motif categories and motif colors on evaluating sensory image of fashion materials with the gestalt theory as the background. The research was conducted on a quasi experimental basis, with subjects numbering 187 male and 207 female college students. Data were collected in the period from march 19th to march 31st, 2007. A set of fabric stimuli and semantic differential scales were developed. The stimuli were thirteen fabric species(each measuring 12 by 13cm). Variables included; (a) motif colour(white, grey, pink and blue) (b) motif categories(plain, paisley, flower, stripes and zebra effect). The semantic differential scale to measure sensory image of fabric stimuli included 23 sets of bi-polar adjectives. The data were analysed by factor analysis and ANOVA and the major finding were as follows. 1) Four sensory dimensions emerged of importance: salience, attractiveness, comfort and softness. 2) The motif category effected on the four sensory image dimensions while the motif colour effected on salience, comfort and softness sensory dimensions. 3) An interaction effect was founded between motif category and motif colour. 4) Motif category showed significant effects on the preference and liking of the fashion, however the motif colour did not show any significant effects on the preference and liking. As a whole the results supported the gestalt theory and the results can be used for the marketing strategy for developing fashion fabrics.

Purpose This study aims to investigate the factors that influence switching intention of Smart Appliances. We focuses on Push-Pull-Mooring theory and status quo bias as factors related to switching behavior. Design/methodology/approach This study developed an model to explain the switching intention of Smart Appliances and conducted structural equation modeling with AMOS22.0. To test the proposed hypotheses, we collected 319 survey responses from smart appliances's users. Findings The results indicated that low usefulness and low ease of use had an effect on the switching intention of smart appliances. The results also indicated that attractiveness of the alternative and social norms had an effect on the switching intention of smart appliances. Lastly, The difference between the relation of push effect and switching intention and the relation of pull effect and switching intention was found to be due to the level of status quo bias. The academic and managerial implications were discussed based on the results of empirical analysis.

This study began with the proposition that, compared to the impulse buying in the conventional offline market, consumers will exhibit a different process of decision-making for impulse buying on the Internet as it has become easier to acquire information and purchase goods which are offered online like digital contents goods. To verify this roposition, this study attempted to find out the external and internal factors as that affect the impulse buying behavior by incorporating Theory of Planned Behavior In addition, this study seeks to confirm the role of alternative's attractiveness in terms of mediating between internal and internal factors affecting impulse buying. The major purpose of this study was to understand Impulse Buying Intention(IBI) for digital contents on the internet. The results of the this study showed that the behavior of impulse buying can be explained with the information searching in which the external factors for the marketing of digital contents affect the internal stimulation factors. It was also found that the impulse buying of digital contents on the Internet starts with non-planned impulse at the problem recognition stage, but planned decision-making will take over when it is proven to be effective with information searching.

It has been long time since the local small-and-medium cities had lost their vitality due to the progress of aging, economic decline in urban areas, the lack of new growth engines, and the declining population in korea. In addition, since the implementation of the local self-governing system, the creation of new urban areas and the transfer of the administrative institutions to the outskirts of a city have accelerated the decline of old downtown. Rather, local small-and-medium cities would have a problem to make urban regeneration impossible. Under the recognition of such problems, individual self-governing entities have come up with numerous policies and implemented various policies for the revitalization of local small-and-medium cities, but it is a condition that the effect of their efforts falls shorts of expectations, such as the space of the similar style, which has been widespread in developed countries, simple restoration, and a few structural changes. In this regard, the part to be realized anew is to enhance the attractiveness of small-and-medium cities. However, is not possible to raise the overall attractiveness in a short time in reality. To select local assets to be utilized in urban regeneration, it is judged that gathering opinions of local residents is more important than any other thing. Accordingly, this study intends to present positive outcome for the purpose of the revitalization of local small-and-medium cities by finding the factors which can remind us of the collective memory of Jinju city and selection the critical factors to determine a detailed project plan from the perspective of urban regeneration.

With the rapid growth of the Chinese cosmetics market and the continuous introduction of new products into the market, beauty videos generated by other consumers, that are by beauty vloggers, have become a major source of information for cosmetics consumers. With the popularity of beauty vlogs in China, beauty vloggers have become influencers who affect consumers' information processing and attitude development regarding cosmetic products and beauty routines. The current study aims to explore the characteristics of beauty vloggers that affect consumers' attitudes toward both the beauty vlogs and the products featured in those vlogs. Based on parasocial interaction theory, the study examines whether perceived characteristics of beauty vloggers influence consumers' perceived parasocial interaction, which in turn influences their attitudes. The study employs an online survey, which was administered to female consumers in China. Data from a total of 372 responses was used for analysis. Findings show that the perceived similarities to and perceived trustworthiness of vloggers have a significant impact on parasocial interactions, which influences consumer attitudes toward both the vlogs and the products shown in them. Perceived reliability and perceived attractiveness are shown to have a positive impact on consumer attitudes toward vlogs. Perceived expertise, attractiveness, similarity, and trustworthiness have all been shown to affect product attitudes. These results show that while beauty vlogs have a significant impact on consumers' decision-making processes, the perceived characteristics of beauty vloggers themselves are important to consumers in the development of their attitudes toward both vlogs and products.

The purpose of this study is (1) to investigate how women's visual images in cosmetic magazine advertisements have changed over time and (2) to examine whether women's images in advertisements have changed in regards to the symbolic ambiguity of dress and appearance styles according to the time period. Social identity theory was used as the theoretical framework to understand the change of gender identity and physical appearance. The two magazines of Vogue and Working Woman were selected for the years of 1981, 1991, and 2001. The findings of the study showed that women's make-up colors portrayed in cosmetics magazine advertisements changed from artificial to natural over 20 years and messages in cosmetics magazine advertisement changed from a focus on attractiveness to a focus on skin-care and health. However, appearance styles of women in the advertisements analyzed were predominantly more feminine than masculine for the entire time period studied.

본 연구는 혁신적인 서비스전달채널의 수용과정을 설명하는데 있어, 기존의 수용관련 연구에서 논의되어온 수용대상에 대한 지각된 속성을 혜택, 비용 및 위험 차원에서 구성요인을 통합하여 각 요인이 수용의도에 미치는 직 간접적 영향관계를 살펴보고, 또한 기존 연구에서 간과되어왔던 이미 이용 중에 있는 기존채널에 대한 이용경험 요인이 기존채널과의 관계에 대한 장기지향성 즉, 지속적 이용의도의 형성과정 및 신규 서비스전달채널의 수용의도에 미치는 영향과정을 모형화하고 실증적 검증을 시도하고 있다. 연구결과, 기존 연구에서 주로 수행되었던 신규 수용대상의 특성에 대한 지각뿐만 아니라 사회교환이론에 기반한 기존채널에 대한 만족도와 대안적 채널의 매력도 등 과정적 변수로서 태도요인의 고려를 통해 상호작용적인 관점에서 수용행동의 결정과정을 설명하는 것이 타당함을 보여주었다. 통합된 구성개념으로서 수용채널의 특성에 대한 지각은 수용채널에 대한 매력도에 유의한 영향관계를 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 과정적 태도변수로서 기존채널에 대한 만족도와 신규채널에 대한 매력도는 수용행동에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 실증결과를 바탕으로 다채널 이용 상황에서의 신규 서비스채널의 수용은 기존채널의 이용을 종결시키는 것이 아니기 때문에 신규채널의 수용을 기존 서비스채널의 이용경험과 대안의 매력도 등 다차원적 측면에서 고려하여야 할 것이고, 수용 후 확산에 대한 문제 또한 기존채널의 이용 연속선상에서 기존채널과 신규채널을 모두 고려해야 되는 등 통합적인 마케팅전략에 대한 관리적 시사점을 제시하였다.
