Purpose: The Covid-19 pandemic has triggered several herd purchase behaviors, and online shopping has been considered a health-related preventative behavior. Thisstudy aimsto the relative impact of health threat beliefs concerning Covid-19 (perceived susceptibility and perceived severity) and herd mentality on consumers' online shopping post-adoption disconfirmation and continuance intention of online shopping. Research design, data and methodology: An internet survey was conducted with Vietnamese consumers, and upon screening, usable data of 292 responses were analyzed using PLS-SEM. Results showed that while herd mentality positively affects disconfirmation, health threat beliefs including perceived susceptibility and perceived severity of Covid-19 do not. Results: Results also provided further support for the notion that disconfirmation is a crucial determinant of post-adoption continuance intention. Moreover, herd mentality also has a significantly negative influence on online shopping post-adoption continuance intention. Conclusions: The research provides evidence supporting the role of herd mentality and post-adoption disconfirmation in driving consumers' intention to continue online shopping. However, the research shows that neither the perceived susceptibility of Covid-19 nor the perceived severity of Covid-19 has significant impact on post-adoption disconfirmation, adding mixed evidence to the application of health belief theory in technology (such as online shopping) adoption.

This study investigates the ultimate factor structure of consumer dissatisfaction with the off-line purchase and usage of clothing. It identifies the determinant dimensions of consumer dissatisfaction on clothing purchase and usage and investigates the hierarchical structure of consumer dissatisfaction by assessing and comparing the effectiveness of five alternative factor structure models. A total of 300 women were online-surveyed to assess the level of dissatisfaction based on their dissatisfying experience with clothing purchases and usage in terms of product quality, price, salesperson's attitude, and store environment. The exploratory factor analysis identified the underlying dimensions of dissatisfaction: Handling, Aesthetics, Salesperson, Size, Price, Product Quality, Service, and Environment. By employing a first-order confirmatory factor analysis and higher-order confirmatory factor analysis, consumer dissatisfaction was confirmed to have a hierarchical structure with three second-order constructs Intrinsic instrument is manifested by handling, quality, and size, Intrinsic expression consists of service, salesperson, and environment, and Extrinsic circumstance contains aesthetics and price. On empirically demonstrating the multi-dimensional constructs of consumer dissatisfaction by identifying its hierarchical structure, the study provides the theoretical and practical insights to comprehend consumer purchase and post-purchase behavior. Specifically, it affords an empirical platform to extend the scope of research with condensed concepts of dissatisfaction to researchers. In addition, it also enables marketers to take a broader view of consumer dissatisfaction by providing cues about potential problems and identifying the source of those problems.

The purpose of this research was to analyze the clothing behavioral attributes of male music enthusiasts. A questionnaire was developed based on previous researches. Respondents were men who were concerned with music in terms of a job, a major or a hobby. A total of 200 responses were analyzed by SPSS 20.0 through factor analysis with Varimax rotation, ANOVA with post-hoc test(SNK-test) and ${\chi}^2$-test. Music preference was classified into 3 factors: New age/jazz, Hiphop/dance, and Metal rock/ballad factor. 5 Clothing purchasing orientation factors were extruded: hedonic, planned, convenience, brand pursued, and fashion pursued purchasing orientation. Using those factor scores, 3 groups were classified: Group1(G1), preferring Hiphop/dance music with lower hedonic and brand/fashion pursued purchasing orientation; G2, preferring Hiphop/dance music with no interest in clothing shopping and fashion; G3, preferring New age music with high convenience and brand pursued purchasing orientation. In addition, there were significant differences among groups in clothing behavior such as social ostentation, individuality, self-expression, fashionability, conformity; in purchase motivation such as hedonic and trend/designer oriented purchase motivation; in information source like advertisement/media source; and in store choice criteria such as store light/music and popularity. The findings showed even the enthusiasts for the same music showed the different sopping orientation and different clothing behavior, suggesting that a personal value or taste can be a plausible factor to figure out attributes of consumers. An interest/involvement in clothing could be helpful to subdivide the music enthusiasts as the target market.

최근 들어 소비자의 만족과 재구매 행동 간 불일치성에 영향을 미치는 조절변수 탐색 연구가 다수 진행되었다. 그러나 이들 연구는 주로 소비자의 인구통계적 특성 및 사회경제적 특성에 치중하여 소비자 내면의 심리 관점에서 만족과 구매 후 행동 간 상응성을 설명해내지 못하는 한계가 있었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 만족과 재구매에 영향을 미치는 중요한 상황적 요인으로서 인지 종결 욕구와 일시적 자아 해석의 역할을 가정하고 두 개의 실험을 통해 이를 규명했다. 우선 소비자의 일시적인 심리 상태에 영향을 미치는 중요한 상황적 요인으로서 최근 심리학계에서 많은 학자들로부터 주목받고 있는 인지 종결 욕구의 개념을 구매의사결정에 직면한 소비자 입장에 새롭게 적용하여 그 역할을 입증했다. 구체적으로 인지 종결 욕구가 높은 상황에서는 가능한 한 신속한 의사결정을 내리고자 하므로 새로운 대안 탐색을 회피하고 기존 대안을 반복 선택할 가능성이 증가했다. 또한 소비자에게 일시적으로 유발된 자아 해석을 만족과 재구매 행동 관계의 주요 조절변수로 가정하고 이를 규명했다. 즉, 일시적으로 독립적 자아 해석 상황에 처하게 되면 상호의존적 자아해석 상황에 처했을 때보다 재구매 행동이 강화될 수 있음이 확인되었다. 독립적 자아 해석 상황에서는 자신의 만족 경험과 판단을 신뢰하여 기존 대안을 지지할 가능성이 높지만, 상호의존적 자아 해석 상황에서는 내집단과의 우호적 관계를 자기 자신의 판단 이상으로 중시하는 경향이 있으므로 의미있는 주변인의 추천에 동조하여 전환행동을 할 가능성이 높아지기 때문이다. 본 연구의 결과는 고객 만족을 넘어 충성 고객화를 위해 고심 중인 기업들에게 근본적인 해결책을 제시하는 실무적 의의가 있다. 단순한 만족이 충성도로 발전하는 과정에서 영향을 미치는 상황적 원인을 규명해낸다면 이를 진정한 충성도 배양에 도움을 주는 방향으로 작동시키면 되기 때문이다.

Reselling, an activity of purchasing high-scarcity products and selling them back at high prices, has gained popularity among those in their 20s and 30s in recent years. This study examines the resell activity process of the MZ generation using the online second-hand platform and its inherent meaning. Interviews with 15 participants in their 20s and 30s showed that respondents have four purchase stages: being influenced by social media, collecting and comparing information using various social media, purchasing efforts, and post-purchase behavior. The research derived three inherent meanings of resell activities: (1) means of self-presentation and differentiation, (2) confirmation of investment skills and aptitude to lead fashion trends, and (3) pleasure of consumption. Respondents indicated meeting self-satisfaction through public selfies on social media. In addition, they emphasized the empirical pleasure during the buying journey by collecting product information, comparing prices, and negotiating with buyers. Our findings confirm the spread of resell activities from minority groups to enthusiastic youth. This study is significant for focusing on fashion products that attract attention in the resell market and examining the respondents' consumption experiences from various perspectives.

Purpose - This research aims to investigate the factors that influence consumer's overseas online shopping behavior. Consumers adopt overseas online shopping as a new buying way and more and more consumers prefer overseas online shopping than traditional shopping ways. Consumers' behaviors in this shopping experience can be different from other shopping experiences. With the increase of overseas online shopping, we need to find antecedents and results of overseas online shopping. Especially there would be positive or negative factors which influence overseas online shopping motivation. To find the relationship, this study examines self-efficacy and impulsivity as major factors which influence overseas online shopping. We also suggest that several attitude factors increase self-efficacy and it is positively related to customer satisfaction. On the other hand, we assume that overseas online shopping factors influence impulsivity of buying and it will decrease customer satisfaction. Research design, data, and methodology - This empirical study data were collected from Korean people who experience overseas online shopping. The subjects for this study were confined to shoppers who used overseas online shopping within the past six months. A total of 267 responses were gathered. SPSS 23.0, PLS 2.0 software were used in the data analysis. Descriptive statistics were used to show sample characteristics. We examined reliability, validity test for constructs. All measurement items used seven-point scales(1= very strong disagree, 7 = very strongly agree) drawn from previously published papers. Partial Least Square method was applied to find the relationship between antecedent factors and dependent factors and hypotheses were estimated. Results - Results show that perceived superiority, perceived ease of use, perceived transaction safety, perceived behavioral control positively affect self-efficacy. Self-efficacy influences positively to consumer's post purchase satisfaction. Perceived monetary benefit and perceived uniqueness motivated impulse buying. This can make consumer's post purchase dissatisfaction. Conclusions - This paper attempted to confirm the existence of both the positive and negative faces of overseas online shopping. The result reveals that self-efficacy is a major factor which may increase satisfaction in the overseas online shopping. Usually, we can think monetary benefit and uniqueness of products motivate overseas online shopping. But it can also intrigue impulse buying and negatively affect customer relationship. Therefore companies should provide enough products information to their potential customers and they might apply adequate processes such as recommendation, comparing systems to build long term relationship with their customers.

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.

The Expectation Confirmation Model (ECM) of information systems investigates the continued information systems usage behavior. This paper expands the original post-adoption beliefs and searches the applications in the emerging hedonic information systems. Previous IS researches focused on the organizational environments. However as the information technology (especially internet) evolves, information systems have not only emerged for the organizations but also for the individual users, such as internet portals, internet communities, on-line games etc. These information systems so called Hedonic Information Systems aims to provide self-fulfilling value rather than instrumental value to the users. Researches in other disciplines, including marketing and consumer behavior research, illustrate that the hedonic and utilitarian perspective of goods and services have different influence on the consumer behavior. Goods and services used to be classified into either hedonic or utilitarian aspect but now they may belong to both aspects simultaneously. Moreover consumer's goals or tasks have both hedonic utilitarian aspects. When a consumer makes a decision to purchase or repurchase goods or services, he/she compares the hedonic and utilitarian perspectives of goods to find most suitable ones to satisfy their goals/tasks. Finally, consumer's behavior is determined by the trade-off between what the goods can provide to the consumers and in what extent the goods fulfill consumer's purchase behavior. Consumer also shows that the salience of hedonic perspective is relatively greater when consumer decides which of several items to give up (forfeiture choices) than the time when they decide which item to acquire (acquisition choices). Some researches in MIS discipline have found out that the information systems also have both hedonic and utilitarian perspectives. The decision process of whether to use information systems or not is similar to that of a consumer's decision of purchasing or repurchasing goods or services. However most of researches in MIS tend to focus on the extrinsic motivation variables which only cover the utilitarian perspective of information systems. It is only recent that researches start to investigate the intrinsic motivation variable - Perceived Enjoyment - for the hedonic perspective. Considering the consumer's purchasing decision process, users of information systems evaluate the systems through balancing between intrinsic (hedonic) and extrinsic (utilitarian) variables according to their main tasks or tendencies. This paper proposes a model that is based on the ECM of IS Continuance model modified from Expectation Confirmation Model to fit into the continued usage of information system. It first started from the decision process regarding hedonic and utilitarian perspectives in the consumer behavior literatures. The model deals with continued usage of information systems beyond the mere technology adoption as in most of the previous MIS researches. This research is particularly important to the hedonic information systems, because their business model depends on the frequent usages rather simple adoption at the beginning. Because the basic model only considered the extrinsic motivations (perceived usefulness) to explain the users' behavior and as the information systems can have both hedonic and utilitarian dimensions, it should consider both perspectives. Therefore, this newly proposed model considers intrinsic variable (perceived enjoyment) as well. Since the individual user can have a preference on either aspects that is between the hedonic and utilitarian perspective depending on his/her main tasks or goals, some variables (Hedonic Orientation and Utilitarian Orientation) meaning the extents of users' pursuing from the information system were additionally studied.
