This study investigated difference of product interest and its relation to consumers' innate innovativeness according to gender as well as compared the perceptive construct of products between male and female consumers. A survey involving male and female college students was conducted in the Daegu and Gyeongbuk areas in December 2013. Subsequently, 400 responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlations, independent sample t-test, reliability analysis, ANCOVA, and multidimensional scaling. Among 45 products, male respondents showed a significantly high degree of interest over 12 categories such as watches, desktop computers, cars, sports products, and video games compared to females. The female sample showed a significantly high degree of interest for 29 product categories such as clothing, movies, skin care shops, cosmetics, eating-out, teeth whitening, coffee, cameras, and performances compared to males. Innovative male consumers were interested in traveling, movies, clothing, eating-out, running shoes, and wallets; however, female consumers' innovativeness was significantly related to previously determined items of interest. Two dimensions explaining the male consumers' products perception construct were 'hard versus soft' and 'usual versus special'. Instead, female consumers' were 'special versus usual' and 'expressive versus functional'.

The main purpose of this research is to examine what are the factors that affect consumer attitude by the types of clothing window display, and find if there is any difference by gender of consumer group. Total 357 data from random sample of 347 adults(156 male and 191 female) who were between 19 to 49 years of age were analyzed. Sources for the sample were companies and apartment complexes and several colleges in Seoul and Chonan to diversify by such demographics as age and social status. Factors were measured by respondents' rating of 9 statements using a 5-point Likert-type scale. SPSS(Statistical Package for Social Science) Version 10.0, is used for factor analysis in order to comprehend the factors of consumer attitude and Cronbauch's ${\alpha}$ in order to measure the credibility of questions in each factor. The main findings are as follows: First, three dimensions of consumer attitude to two types of window-display of product centered display and image centered display were identified as interest, information, and impression and theses are same to both male and female consumer group. Second, for both male and female consumer group, three dimensions of consumer attitude toward two types of window-display were same, however, included sub categories in each dimension showed a little difference. In product centered display, both male and female consumer group showed high interest in the sub categories of 'fashion' and 'informations related to the product' and they were considered same factor. Otherwise, In image centered display, two sub categories of 'having some interests in the display' and 'recognize the display that projects the image or impression of clothing well' were showed high relationship each other and they were also considered same factor. Third, Cronbauch's ${\alpha}$ of three dimensions of consumer attitude demonstrated high credibility from 0.75 to 0.91. Mean score of subcategories of attitudes toward the type of display by the gender of consumer showed high scores of 'interest' and 'impression' categories in image centered display and showed high scores of 'information' category in product centered display for both gender.

Differentiated positioning becomes increasingly difficult when brand salience weakens. Also, the daily increase in new media use and information load has led to a social climate that regards advertising stimuli as spamming. For these reasons, the focus of advertisement-related communication is shifting from persuading consumers through the direct delivery of information to an emphasis on appealing to their emotions using matching stimuli to enhance persuasion effects. Recently, both academia and industry have increasingly shown an interest in storytelling methods that can generate positive emotional responses and attitude changes by arousing consumers' narrative processing. The purpose of storytelling is to elicit consumers' emotional experience to meet the objectives of advertisement producers. Therefore, the most important requirement for storytelling in advertising is that it evokes consumers' sympathy for the main character in the advertisement. This does not involve advertisements directly persuading consumers, but rather, consumers themselves finding an answer through the advertisement's story. Thus, consumers have an indirect experience regarding the product features and usage through empathy with the advertisement's main character. In this study, we took the results of a precedent study as the starting point, according to which consumers' emotional response can be altered depending on the storytelling methods adopted for storytelling ads. Previous studies have reported that drama-type and vignette-type storytelling methods have a considerably different impact on the emotional responses of advertising audiences, due to their different structural characteristics. Thus, this study aims to verify that emotional response aroused by different types of advertisement storytelling (drama ads vs. vignette ads) can be controlled by the socio-psychological gender difference of advertising audiences and that the interaction effects between the socio-psychological gender differences of the audience and the gender stereotype of emotions to which advertisements appeal can exert an influence on emotional responses to types of storytelling in advertising. To achieve this, an experiment was conducted employing a between-group design consisting of 2 (storytelling type: drama ads vs. vignette ads) × 2 (socio-psychological gender of the audience: masculinity vs. femininity) × 2 (advertising appeal emotion type: male stereotype emotion vs. female stereotype emotion). The experiment revealed that the femininity group displayed a strong and consistent empathy for drama ads regardless of whether the ads appealed to masculine or feminine emotions, whereas the masculinity group displayed a stronger empathy for drama ads appealing to the emotional types matching its own gender as well as for vignette ads. The theoretical contribution of this study is significant in that it sheds light on the controllability of the audiences' emotional responses to advertisement storytelling depending on their socio-psychological gender and gender stereotype of emotions appealed to through advertising. Specifically, its considerable practical contribution consists in easing unnecessary creative constraints by comprehensively analyzing essential advertising strategic factors such as the target consumers' gender and the objective of the advertisement, in contrast to the oversimplified view of previous studies that considered emotional responses to storytelling ads were determined by the different types of production techniques used. This study revealed that emotional response to advertisement storytelling varies depending on the target gender of and emotion type appealed to by the advertisement. This suggests that an understanding of the targeted gender is necessary prior to producing an advertisement and that in deciding on an advertisement storytelling type, strategic attention should be directed to the advertisement's appeal concept or emotion type. Thus, it is safe to use drama-type storytelling that expresses masculine emotions (ex. fun, happy, encouraged) when the advertisement target, like Bacchus, includes both men and women. For brands and advertisements targeting only women (ex. female clothes), it is more effective to use a drama-type storytelling method that expresses feminine emotions (lovely, romantic, sad). The drama method can be still more effective than the vignette when women are the main target and a masculine concept-based creative is to be produced. However, when male consumers are targeted and the brand concept or advertisement concept is focused on feminine emotions (ex. romantic), vignette ads can more effectively induce empathy than drama ads.

본 연구의 목적은 목공 제품(새집, Birdhouse) 제작 체험 활동 프로그램에서 디자인 씽킹 활용이 예비기술교사인 대학생들의 만족도와 문제해결력에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 하는 것이다. 설문 대상자는 비교과프로그램으로 체험활동을 실시한 33명 대학생들이며, 설문 문항은 만족도, 문제해결 자신감, 어려웠던 점 및 어려움 원인 등이며, 분석은 통계프로그램을 활용하였다. 이 연구의 주요 결론은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 체험 활동에 대한 전체 만족도 평균은 4.39로 다소 높은 편이다. 응답 평균이 가장 높은 것은 '제작하는 과정에서 성취감'과 '주위의 조언이 도움 됨'(M=4.46)이었다. 남녀별, 학년별로 유의미한 차이는 없지만, 학생들은 주어진 작품이 아닌 조별로 디자인 씽킹을 활용하여 서로 다른 새집을 제작하여 흥미로웠고 만족하였다. 따라서 문제해결 자신감, 성취감과 만족도가 높아 다른 학생들에게 추천하고 싶다고 하므로 디자인 씽킹을 활용한 제작 체험 활동 프로그램은 효과적이라고 판단된다. 둘째, 디자인 씽킹을 활용한 조별 체험활동 후 문제해결 자신감 응답 평균은 3.80 정도이다. 학생들은 조별로 새집 제작 체험 활동을 통해서 문제해결능력과 어려운 상황에 대한 대처능력 등 문제 해결에 자신감을 가질 수 있는 기회가 되었다고 하였으므로, 추후 체험활동에서는 어려웠던 점을 분석하여 보완하면 만족도 향상에 도움이 될 것이다. 셋째, 문제해결능력 자신감 설문 문항에서, 가장 높은 상관관계를 보인 것은 '나에겐 여러 문제를 해결할 능력이 있다'와 '나는 언제나 새롭고 어려운 상활을 대처할 능력이 있다'이다. 따라서 학생들의 문제해결능력 자신감 향상을 위해서는 문제해결능력 역량을 강화할 수 있는 교수·학습 프로그램을 마련해야 할 것이다. 넷째, 주어진 설계도가 아닌 직접 설계하고 제작하는 과정에서 가장 어려웠던 점은 '작품 아이디어의 수정·발전 과정'이라고 하였으며, 어려움을 느낀 가장 큰 원인은 '해결 지식 부족과 제작 능력 부족'이다. 따라서 디자인 씽킹을 활용한 목공 제품을 만들기 위해서는 제작 전에 목공 및 디자인 씽킹에 대한 충분한 교육을 받는다면 작품 제작에 도움이 될 것이다. 종합한 결과, 창의성과 문제해결력 향상에 도움이 되는 디자인 씽킹을 활용한 팀별 학습은 만족도가 높았다. 따라서 다른 체험활동에서 디자인 씽킹을 적용하고 분석하는 연구 결과는 학생들의 문제해결력 향상에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.
