자아이미지 일치성과 대안 매력도가 몰입 및 점포충성도에 미치는 영향 = The Effects of Self-image Congruity and Alternative Attractiveness on Commitment and Store Loyalty

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of self-image congruity and alternative attractiveness on commitment and store loyalty when customers purchase clothes in a department store. A survey was conducted for this study and 530 answer sheets were analyzed using structural equation modeling.
The results are as follows: First, self-image congruity has a significant positive effect on affective commitment and continuance commitment. Second, alternative attractiveness has no significant effect on affective and continuance commitment. Third, both affective commitment and continuance commitment have a significant effect on behavior intentions such as repurchase intention, word- of-mouth, and willing to pay more. Fourth, affective commitment has a stronger effect on word- of-mouth intention and willing to pay more than does continuance commitment. Finally, continuance commitment has a stronger effect on repurchase intention than does affective commitment.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구는 자아이미지 일치성과 대안 매력도와 같은 다양한 서비스 평가준거가 감정적 몰입과 지속적 몰입에 미치는 영향력을 살펴보고 이에 따라 고객충성도와 관련된 행동의도에 미치는 영향력의 차이를 파악하고자 하였다. 본 연구모델의 실증분석을 위해 설문조사를 실시한 결과, 자아이미지 일치성은 감정적 몰입과 지속적 몰입에 유의한 영향을 미쳤으며 지속적 몰입보다는 감정적 몰입에 더 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 하지만 대안 매력도는 두 가지 몰입에 모두 유의한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 또한 감정적 몰입과 지속적 몰입은 모두 재구매의도, 구전의도, 고가지불의도의 세 가지 점포충성도 행동의도에 유의한 영향을 미쳤다. 특히, 감정적 몰입은 지속적 몰입보다 구전의도와 고가지불의도에 대해 더 큰 영향력을 미친 반면, 지속적 몰입의 경우에는 감정적 몰입보다 재구매의도에 더 큰 영향력을 미침을 알 수 있었다.
