Subjects were 405 female college students and 505 was utilized for structural equation modeling. As results, hedonic shopping value had positive effects on impulse purohasing, variety seeking, and purchasing involvement. In contrast, interestingly, impulse purchasing did not show any significant effect on brand loyalty and purchasing involvement had rather a positive effect on brand loyalty. There was a Positive effect of hedonic shopping value on brand loyalty. This result indicates that people who get more involved in and enjoy clothing shopping are likely more brand loyal than others. This seems to come from the intrinsic characteristics of shopping. People who enjoy clothing shopping likely have high level of fashion or style concern, and this might lead higher levels of purchasing involvement and brand loyalty. Due to the symbolic characteristics of clothing, the brand loyalty of clothing seems to be more symbolic and emotive rather than utilitarian and cognitive.

본 연구의 주요주제는 온라인으로 제시되는 정보의 품질이다. 특히 제품의 태나 맞음새 등의 제품 품질이 불완전하게 평가될 수밖에 없는 의류제품의 온라인 쇼핑의 경우 제시되는 제품의 정보가 구매결정에 매우 중요한 단서가 된다. 온라인 제품정보에 대한선행연구가 주로 정보의 수량에 치우친 반면 본 연구에서는 중요성의 가중치로 제품정보의 품질을 알아보았다. 또한 이러한 과정에서 의류제품의 범주나 소비자들의 관여 정도가 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 실증적 연구를 위하여 13가지의 정보가 선정되었고 복종의 영향을 알아보기 위해 청바지와 티셔츠를 판매하는 상황을 가정 한 웹페이지가 설계되었다. 125명의 미국대학생들이 실험연구에 참여하였다. 연구결과 복종에 관계없이 중요한 기준들은 가중치 순서대로 사이즈, 가격, 스타일, 색상, 치수, 재고유무, 제품품질로 나타났다. 섬유조성, 직조방법, 개인화 등의 정보는 복종에 따라 중요도의 가중치가 다른 정보였다. 소비자의 의복관여는 복종에 따라 제품정보의 가중치에 다른 영향을 주었는데 티셔츠의 경우 고관여소비자는 재고유무정보에 보디-민감하며 재고유무와 사이즈 정보에는 덜 민감하였다. 청바지의 경우 고관여소비자는 섬유조성과 색상정보에 민감한 반면 직조방법이나 가격에는 상대적으로 덜 민감한 것으로 나타났다.
