정보통신기술의 수용에 대한 많은 선행연구들은 기술수용이 유용성(usefulness), 사용의 용이성(ease of use) 그리고 기술에 대한 자긍심(self-efficacy) 같은 혁신적 요인에 의해 영향을 받는다고 하였다. 그러나, 이러한 선행연구들은 사회적 규범(subjective norms), 구전효과(word-of-mouth) 그리고 광고(advertising)와 같은 모방적 요인에 대해서는 간과해 왔다. 특히 수요대폭발(critical mass)을 불러일으키는 모방적 요인과 혁신적 요인의 상호간 인과관계에 대한 연구는 그다지 활발하지 않았다. 그래서 본 연구는 모바일 기술의 수용에 있어 모방적 요인의 역할에 대해 초점을 맞추었다. 이 연구의 목적은 복합적 관점에서 초기 모바일 기술 수용에 대한 의도에 영향을 미치는 요인들간의 인과관계를 실증적으로 검증하였다. 그 결과, 대량광고, 구전효과와 사회적 규범과 같은 모방적 요인이 모바일 수용의도에 직/간접적으로 영향을 미치고 있다는 것을 밝혔다. 본 연구는 기술 전파에 따른 시장변화에 있어 정보통신 장비공급업체에게 효과적으로 대응할 수 있는 전략수립에 도움을 주리라 믿는다.

Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) has been widely used to predict user's behavior to accept the technology. Prior researches have been mainly focused on innovation constructs such as perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. However, very little research has been conducted to understand individual mental beliefs in technology acceptance and imitation influence. This study integrates Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), Flow Theory (FT) and Diffusion of Innovation Theory (DIT). This paper indicates that imitation context, cognitive absorption (CA) based Flow theory and innovation context are the three important factors influencing user acceptance of information technologies. The proposed model has been tested among 232 users of MP3 players. Results showed that innovation context and cognitive absorption have positive influences on intention to use technology. Not all factors of the imitation context have direct effect on intention to use. However, we found that imitation context has positive influence on intention to use technology through cognitive absorption.

In this research, we analyze the sensitivity of the network density to the estimates for the Bass model parameters with both theoretical model and a simulation. Bass model describes the process that the non-adopters in the market potential adopt a new product or an innovation by the innovation effect and imitation effect. The imitation effect shows the word of mouth effect from the previous adopters to non-adopters. But it does not divide the underlying network structure from the strength of the influence over the network. With a network based Bass model, we found that the estimate for the imitation coefficient is highly sensitive to the network density and it is decreasing while the network density is decreasing. This finding implies that the interpersonal influence can be under-looked when the network density is low. It also implies that both of the network density and the interpersonal influence are important to facilitate the diffusion of an innovation.

The purpose of this study was to extend the social teaming and imitation theory in an attempt to examine the effect of star-entertainer imitation behavior on clothing behaviors in relation to adolescents' age and gender variables. The research was a survey and the subjects were 895 adolescents in Taejon, Korea. The measuring instruments was serif-administrated questionnaire consisted of star-entertainer imitation behaviors and clothing behaviors. The collected data were analyzed using factor analysis, ANOVA, Duncan's multiple range test. Results were as fellows: 1) The results of analysing the response of star-entertainer imitation behaviors showed that adolescents had very positive attitudes and high psychological need to identify self with star-entertainers, however, their actual identification behaviors were not very noticeable because of parents' restraint and school regulations on students' appearances and clothing behaviors. 2) The results of analysing the response of clothing behaviors showed four factors such as 'fashion$.$clothing interest', 'psychological dependency on clothing' , 'clothing exhibition', and 'clothing conformity'. 3) Star-entertainer imitation behaviors had significant effects on clothing behaviors; the group with more star-entertainer imitation behaviors showed more fashion$.$clothing interest, higher psychological dependency on clothing and clothing exhibition, and lower clothing conformity than the group with less star-entertainer imitation behaviors. 4) Clothing behaviors showed the differences according as adolescents' age and gender; the female adolescents showed more fashion$.$clothing interest and clothing exhibition than male, the high school and cortege age groups showed higher psychological dependency on clothing than other age groups. It is concluded that the results of this study support social teaming and imitation theory since TV media give strong influence on the TV viewers through presenting various modeling stimuli to adolescents' lives.

It is important to understand the process of technology diffusion among end users for effectively implementing adoption and coping with frequent changes in the environment. Previous studies indicate that information and communication technology (ICT) adoption is affected by innovation influence such as usefulness, ease of use and self-efficacy. Most of these studies, however, bypassed imitation influence such as subjective norms, word-of-mouth, and advertising, specifically, interactive innovation having critical mass in technology acceptance research. Thus, this study investigates imitation influence in individual adoption of mobile communication technology, more specifically, mobile phones, using Mahaian's diffusion model in individual ICT adoption.

With the current of the end of a century and social, economic, political, and cultural turbulence, people take advantage of the various ways to express their stagnation. This study introduces the term representativity and it will explain the men's fashion of the end of a century. On a theoretical basis, the concept of the representativity, image, symbol and imitation which are used as a tool for expression will be examined, and together with this, inner representation and outer representation will be categorized. The inner representation of the men's fashion in the end of a century can be taken for the purpose of connecting the image of masculinity. The image of masculinity is widely spread owing to the mass communication of a consumption-oriented society, so its hard to define that image as one thing specific. Hence, in order to discuss the male gender and mens fashion, New Man phenomenon should be noticed of. 1980's New Man influence has lasted till now. New Man images were largely categorized into two images like New Lad and Iron John after the mid 1990's. Therefore, the image of masculinity is largely classified New lad, who desires success and pursues the hedonistic life style and Iron John, who enjoys thrill and follows economical life style. The image of masculinity has influence on the outer representation how it is imitated and symbolized via many designer's works and street fashion. Two masculinity images are dominant over the men's fashion of the end of a century. One is inhumane and rational corporate power look that stems from symbolization and imitation of New Lad. The other is outdoor casual that originated from the symbolization and imitation of Iron John.

Purpose - This research focused on women who enjoy watching Korean dramas and K-pop, as well as how their desire to imitate are influenced by their viewing habits. Due to the influence of their idols, women who aspire to copy and are influenced by their idols will desire to purchase Korean products. This cultural export strategy has effectively persuaded the global community, particularly women. Indonesia with a large population can be a reference for the industry to increase sales of South Korean beauty products, especially in the ASEAN region. Design/methodology - This research used a quantitative approach with an online questionnaire. This questionnaire had two steps: the pre-questionnaire and the questionnaire itself. The different measuring tools that were already in use when the data were being collected helped to determine how much each variable meant. As a part of this research project, 410 Indonesian women filled out the questionnaire in order to share their thoughts as they were the focus of the study. SMART PLS was used to analyze the data. Findings - One of the most essential findings from establishing the Korean Wave effect on purchase intention was the imitation intention variable. Someone who has the aspiration to be just like their idol will be willing to give anything in order to achieve that goal. One strategy is to buy things that are similar to the ones you want to imitate in order to stimulate demand for Korean products. People's imitation intention and attitude toward Korean products will increase as a result of Korean drama and K-pop elements that display one's idols with fashionable appearances and good-looking faces, which will lead to purchase intentions. Originality/value - The Korean Wave has had a beneficial impact on the intention to imitate and the attitude toward Korean items, both of which will favorably boost the intention to acquire Korean goods. In order to boost sales in international markets, particularly in Indonesia, the Korean business sector needs to increase the number of artists and singers it employs for product promotion. . Mutualism effect between the government, the entertainment industry, and the beauty product industry to increase sales of South Korean beauty products.

Bass diffusion model have played a central role in studying the diffusion of the new products since 1969, the year of publication of Bass model. Almost 750 publications based on the Bass diffusion model have explored extensions and applications. Extension models can be divided into two types. One is the model containing marketing-mix variables and the other is the model containing additional parameters. This paper presents another extension model of the latter type. Our model allows the time varying coefficients of innovation and imitation. Two pieces approximation of time varying coefficients is introduced and it's parameters are estimated based on NLS(Non-Linear Mean Square) method. Empirical studies are performed and the results show that our model is superior to the basic Bass model and the NUI(Non-Uniform Influence) model which is the well-known extension of the Bass model. The model developed in this paper is, also, transformed into the Bass model with the ready potential adopters in order to enhance the descriptive power.

본고는 상촌(象村) 신흠(申欽)의 의고악부(擬古樂府)가 조선 중기 명대(明代) 복고주의(復古主義) 문학론 수용의 맥락 하에서 창작되었음을 확인하고, "한요가" 18곡에 대한 분석을 통해 전후칠자(前後七子)가 주창한 의고적 방법론이 구체적인 작품 구현의 영역에까지 영향을 미치고 있던 정황을 살펴보았다. 주지하다시피 우리나라에서 악부는 역대 여러 문인들에 의해 다양한 형식과 내용으로 지어져 왔다. 그중에서도 신흠은 여타 인물과 비교해볼 때 유례없이 많은 수의 의고악부를 창작하였으며, 이전까지 이루어진 바 없었던 "한요가" 18곡 전체에 대한 의작까지 수행하였다. 그의 이와 같은 정력적인 의작 활동은 무엇보다도 조선 중기에 소개된 명대 문예 사조에 대한 깊은 관심에 기인한 것이었다. 그는 명대 전후칠자가 제기한 복고적 문학론에 공감을 표하며, 모의(模擬)의 방법을 통해 질박하고 진솔한 감정을 담지하고 있던 옛 한위(漢魏) 시기의 문학을 자신의 시대에 재현해 내고자 하였다. 이에 그는 표현 뿐 아니라 내용 및 주제의식에 이르기까지 전후칠자의 의고악부를 참조 활용하여 자신의 작품을 구성해 냈다. 이와 같은 면모는 그간 충분한 관심 속에서 다루어지지 않았던 신흠 의고악부의 창작 동기와 존재 양상에 대한 이해의 폭을 넓혀주는 근거가 됨은 물론, 전후칠자의 문학적 지향과 그들의 '모의'라는 방법론이 당대 조선 문인에게 유의미한 대상으로 인식 수용되고 있던 정황을 확인케 하는 하나의 사례가 된다.
