본 연구는 소비자 관계에 영향을 미치는 선행 변수로 기능적 편익, 정서적 편익, 자아표현적 편익이 어떠한 영향력을 행사하며, 이러한 소비자-브랜드 관계가 브랜드 애착과 구전에 어떠한 구조적 관계를 나타내는지를 실증적으로 검증하여 살펴보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 구조방정식 모형(Structural Equation Model) 중에서 두 경로 간 크기를 통계적으로 검증할 수 있는 위계적 카이스퀘어 분석(hierarchical chi-squal analysis)을 통해 가설을 검증하였다. 연구 결과 기능적 편익보다는 정서적 편익이 소비자-브랜드 관계 형성에 미치는 영향력이 우세하였다. 또한 소비자-브랜드 관계 형성에 있어 정서적 편익과 자아표현적 편익은 영향력 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 즉, 정서적 편익과 기능적 편익 모두 소비자-브랜드 관계 형성에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면, 기능적 편익보다는 자아표현적 편익이 소비자-브랜드 관계 형성에 우세한 역할을 행사하는 것으로 나타났다. 소비자-브랜드 관계 형성정도가 높을수록 브랜드 애착과 구전에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이들 결과를 통해 보면 소비자-브랜드 관계 형성을 위해서는 기능적 편익보다는 정서적 편익과 자아표현적 편익을 통해 브랜드 전략을 수립하는 것이 바람직하다. 또한 이러한 가치 편익을 통해 형성된 소비자-브랜드 관계는 브랜드에 대한 사랑과 같은 애착 정도가 깊어질 뿐 아니라 자발적인 구전을 통해 긍정적이고 장기적인 커뮤니케이션 효과를 달성할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구는 페이스 북 브랜드 팬 페이지 사용자들이 추구한 편익을 기능적, 정서적, 상징적 편익의 세 차원으로 분류하여 이들 편익이 브랜드 애착과 브랜드 몰입에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 구조적으로 살펴보고자 하였다. 연구 결과, 기능적 편익에 비해 감성적 편익이 브랜드 애착을 형성하는 데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 상징적 편익과 기능적 편익 간의 비교에서는 상징적 편익이 브랜드 애착 형성에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 감성적 편익과 상징적 편익은 차이가 없이 브랜드 애착에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 브랜드 애착은 브랜드 몰입에 영향을 주는 선행 변수라는 점이 확인되었다.
