We collected the data using in-depth interview of qualitative analysis. The in-depth interviews were carried out for about two hours in each respondent. Total 15 respondents, 5 in each part of three parts such as an enterprise, a consumer organization, and the consumer, were answered a interview. The data was analysed by content analysis method. As the result of this study, the people concerned to enterprises answered that anti-sites helped the enterprises through the objective and the constructive criticism. The consumers participating in the anti-sites also answered that the existence of anti-sites helped the companies to know the complaint and the dissatisfaction with their goods or services. We suggest the followings for the desirable consumers' voluntary anti-sites through this study. First, the companies need to recognize that the anti-sites help the companies because the anti-sites give the companies the information of improving the product and the corporate management. Second, people concerned to the consumer organizations need to take a neutral role so that the consumer members of anti-sites demand a proper compensation to the companies and receive the reasonable compensation. Third, the anti-sites' managers should give information to the consumer members of the anti-sites continuously, operate the anti-sites actively such as answering a question and managing their members. Fourth, the consumer members of anti-sites should have active attitude in participating in an anti-sites from exchanging various information to uploading their information.

본 연구에서는 실험을 통해 유형의 제품과 무형의 제품으로 구분하여 각각 다른 보상프로그램에 따른 소비자의 불평행동에 대한 회복과 행동의도에 미치는 영향을 규명하였다. 실험 1에서는 기업의 과실로 인한 불평행동을 경험한 소비자는 기업이 제공하는 보상프로그램을 통해 선호회복이 이루어졌으나, 불평행동을 유발한 제품 간의 소비자 선호회복에는 차이가 있었다. 연구의 결과에 따르면 노트북이 패밀리레스토랑에서의 외식 보다 선호회복이 명확하였음을 확인하였다. 또한 소비자들의 감정회복은 보상을 통해 가능하며, 노트북과 패밀리레스토랑에서의 외식 간 제품유형에 따른 감정회복에는 차이가 있었으나 보상물의 형태에 따른 감정회복 차이는 없었다. 결국 불평을 경험한 소비자는 보상을 통해 선호, 감정, 행동의도를 회복시킬 수 있는데 서비스보다는 유형 제품의 경우 회복이 더욱 컸으며, 동일한 유형제품이라도 보상물의 유형에 따른 회복에는 차이가 없으나 노트북 컴퓨터처럼 유형제품이면서 구매노력이 큰 제품은 감정반응자극이 더욱 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 실험2에서는 구매습관이 서로 다른 한국과 일본의 대학생 소비자 사이의 구매 후 불평행동과 이의 회복과정이 차이가 있는지를 확인하고자 하였다. 불평행동을 경험한 양국 소비자는 보상을 통한 선호회복에는 차이가 있었으며, 감정과 행동의도의 회복은 차이가 없었다. 이 실험에서는 한국의 대학생은 과시구매형인 반면 일본의 대학생은 유명구매형으로 노트북컴퓨터의 구매과정 및 구매 후 평가에 차이를 보이고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히 한국학생은 타인의 의식하는 경향이 강해 보상을 통한 선호회복이 일본의 학생에 비해 빠름을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 감정의 회복과 재구매 회복은 차이가 없기에 불평에 따른 보상프로그램은 감정과 행동의도에 영향을 주는 요인으로 확인되었다.

This research aimed to examine consumer's expectancy disconformation related to purchase satisfaction/dissatisfaction and post-purchase behavior in cable TV home shopping. A total of 700 questionnaires were randomly sent to cable TV home shoppers and 172 copies were used in final analysis. Frequency analysis. correlation analysis, analysis of variance, regression analysis, path analysis, and multinominal logit were used. The expectancy discoformation on \"fitting\" and \"how well the clothes suits oneself\" were significantly related to the complaint behavior of return and refund. TV home shoppers tended to express their complaints by requesting the home shopping company or the manufacture company for a compensation rather than express privately such as warning friends, stop buying and boycotting the item. The significant variables that would influence consumers to seek refund rather than exchange were purchase satisfaction, request of compensation to the company, overall expectancy disconformation and expectancy disconformation on decoration and details and suiting oneself.

As the materials being used in children's clothing become diverse, the number of reported problems related to various aspects of washing and wearing is increasing. Many customers experience great dissatisfaction when using these children's garments due to their lack of professional knowledge in washing, fabric, and detergents. Thus, this paper focuses on various cases in which housewives have experienced product damage after washing their children's garments according the prescribed directions. Of particular interest is how the consumers respond to such damage in garments and how their experiences with garment damage affect the sellers of these garments. A total of 292 housewives with children less than 8 years old living in Seoul responded to our survey, out of which 83 reported to have suffered negative consequences. By analyzing the 83 responses, the following results were found: First, the problems reported by the housewives in regards to washing children's garments were mostly related to the durability or color change problems. Secondly, the most favored means of response to garment damage were 'complaining directly to the seller' (16.7%) and 'complaining at the customer service department of the manufacturer or seller' (13.5%). Thirdly, among the actions they requested to the seller/manufacturer, 'ask for an exchange' marked the highest. Lastly, respondents admitted that their experiences with garment damage as well as the attitude or response of the manufacturer/retailer to their complaints would influence their repurchase intention.
