This study examined the effects of demographic variables and psychological mechanisms (self-efficacy, need for closure, and fashion innovativeness) on each of the four types of impulsive buying, including suggestion impulsive buying, stimulus impulsive buying, pure impulsive buying, and reminder impulsive buying. In addition, the study analyzed the impact these four types had on evaluations after impulsive buying (i.e., diversion in mood, regret for buying decision and a sense of financial loss, and dissatisfaction of products). Data was collected by a marketing research company from five hundreds consumers in seven different cities of South Korea who experienced impulsive buying in the off-line apparel stores within the past three months. The results of regression analyses indicated that self-efficacy and gender significantly affected suggestion impulsive buying. That is, the higher consumers' self-efficacy, the greater their suggestion impulsive buying was. In addition, women had higher Suggestion Impulsive Buying than men did. However, in case of Stimulus Impulsive Buying, gender was the only significant antecedent. That is, women had higher stimulus impulsive buying than men did. In terms of pure impulsive buying, fashion innovativeness was a significant predictor, and for the reminder impulsive buying level, fashion innovativeness and need for closure were significant predictors. Finally, pure and suggestion impulsive buying were correlated with positive consumer evaluations, while both stimulus and reminder impulsive buyings were correlated with negative consumer evaluations. Implications and future studies were discussed.

With rapid economic development in Korea, interests in interior design have increased gradually. However, interior design markets were poorly evaluated from 2015 Korean Consumer Evaluation. It is necessary to identify what kinds of problems, defects, and consumer claims have arisen during interior design planning and construction procedures. Therefore the purpose of this study is to investigate claims and disputes in interior design project procedures and to find out when defects or claims take place in those procedures in order to reduce claims or defects. Email questionnaires were distributed to KOSID members (professional interior designers) using Google Survey. In addition, a focus group interview was conducted. A total of 54 responses were collected and analyzed using SPSS 19. As a result, in an agreement stage, alteration in materials is the major source of claim. More than a half of respondents addressed time shortage for programming and planning. During the construction stage, approximately 31% respondents experienced client dissatisfaction with materials and finishes. The reason for project completion delay was due to claims during construction. The claims most frequently appealed by clients were related to painting. The satisfaction with project quality is positively related to the quality and contents of design documents including design drawings and specifications. Regulations and communication with clients are important issues to reduce the gaps between interior designers and clients/ consumers.

The postpurchase process is the phase that consumers evaluate products or services while using them. And then, they may experience satisfaction/dissatisfaction and emotions elicited products or services. The satisfaction and emotions may be important concepts in consumer behavior such as brand attitude, purchase intentions and using. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of emotions elicited clothing products on product satisfaction and using in postpurchase. The subjects in this study were selected 500 females. The data were collected by using questionnaires, and 431 data were analysed. The results were as follows: The emotions in postpurchase process were consisted of three dimensions; unpleasure, pleasure, security/activity. These three emotions had the causal effects on product satisfaction significantly, and the unpleasure influenced stronger than others on satisfaction. In addition, the emotions were related to using and the ownership of clothing products. The emotions of pleasure and the security/activity influenced on the ownership, and the security/activity and unpleasure influenced on using clothing products. Therefore, the results in this study imply that consumption emotions elicited clothing products would be multidimensional, and the emotional factors would be important indicators for explaining the satisfaction. The positive affects were related to using clothes, which is, the consumer would have fulfilled their hedonic desires by wearing clothes.

The aim of this study was to provide strategic implications for the coffee market in which competition got severer through IPA analysis based on the attributes of selection of a specialized franchise coffee shop. The results of a positive analysis conducted with undergraduates in their twenties were as follows: According to the evaluation of the importance of the attributes of selection of a specialized coffee shop, the most important were 'cleanliness and hygienic facilities inside the shop (6.09)' and 'taste and quality of the menu (coffee) (6.09)'. According to the performance analysis, those showing the highest performance were 'brand image (4.92)' and 'cleanliness and hygienic facilities inside the shop (4.92)'. According to the result of IPA analysis, what customers regarded as being the most important were 'taste and quality of the menu (coffee)', 'kindness of the staff', and 'cleanliness and hygienic facilities inside the shop', and, in fact, they showed great performances as well. However, 'price of the menu (coffee)' was regarded as being important but did not indicate a great performance; therefore, they showed dissatisfaction with it. Although they did not think 'environment around the shop', 'brand image', 'brand recognition' or 'interior size and scale of the shop' were important, the attributes did not appear to show great performances. Therefore, we need constant maintenance strate gies regarding the fact that consumers are considered to be very important for evaluation, and should make efforts to change the price in advance.

본 연구에서는 점차 확대되고 있는 애완학습곤충 시장을 올바르게 이해하고 적절한 대응을 하기 위해 실제 소비자들의 이용행태를 모니터링 함으로써 소비자의 욕구를 파악하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 곤충 관련 박물관, 체험관, 곤충농장 등을 방문한 적이 있거나 곤충을 구매한 경험이 있는 소비자가 자신의 블로그에 올린 게시물들을 대상으로 자료를 수집하였으며, 게시물의 사진 및 텍스트를 중심으로 내용분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과 애완학습곤충 시장은 자녀의 교육목적을 위한 초등학교 저학년 이하의 자녀를 동반한 가족형 방문형태인 것으로 나타났다. 방문 목적지는 주로 서울, 경기의 수도권에 집중되어있으며, 자녀의 방학기간을 이용한 방문이 가장 많았다. 사진 분석 결과 체험활동에 대한 높은 관심도를 확인할 수 있었으며, 만족한 내용도 체험거리가 많고 다양하다는 것이었기 때문에 앞으로도 직접 체험할 수 있는 다양한 형태의 수준별 체험 프로그램을 개발하여 제공해야 할 것이다. 또한 불만족한 내용은 곤충에 대한 거부감인 것으로 나타나 곤충에 대한 친근한 이미지를 형성할 수 있도록 다른 동물이나 식물과 연계한 프로그램의 개발 등 노력이 필요할 것이다. 또한 애완학습곤충 시장이 계속 성장하고 발전하기 위해서는 곤충종의 다양화 및 곤충을 활용한 체계화된 체험프로그램의 개발이 필요할 것으로 보인다.
