개인정보제공 의사결정에 있어서 사이트 이용경험의 조절효과에 대한 연구 = The Moderating Role of Site Usage Experience in Internet Users’ Decision on Personal Information Disclosure

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The proliferation of the Internet and the advent of e-commerce have amplified public concerns about privacy. Accordingly, much research effort has been made on the issue. While existing research on online information privacy has usually focused on the examination of antecedents of personal information disclosure, the literature has not paid attention to the potential changes of the antecedents’effects depending on the user’s experience of the service. The current study aims to investigate the moderating role of site usage experience in Internet users’decision on personal information disclosure. Specifically, this study considers two types of antecedents of personal information disclosure on a site.the attributes of personal information requested (sensitivity and relevance of information) and the value of the service provided by the site; and examines how the effects of the antecedents on the disclosure intention are affected by the users’experience of the site. Our analysis of the data gathered through a web-based experiment reveals that site usage experience moderates the relationship between the attributes of personal information and disclosure intention. While usage experience attenuates the negative effect of information sensitivity on disclosure intention, it intensifies the positive impact that relevance of information has on disclosure intention. Based on the analysis results, we provide implications for the mitigation of the Internet users’privacy concerns as well as theoretical implications.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

인터넷의 발전과 전자상거래의 확산에 따라 정보 프라이버시가 주요한 이슈로 부각되고 있다. 온라인상의 정보프라이버시에 관한 연구들은 주로 인터넷 사용자들의 정보제공행동(의도)의 선행요인들을 규명하는데 초점을 맞추고 있으나, 사용자들의 사이트 이용경험의 차이에 따른 선행요인의 영향 변화를 고려하지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 인터넷 사용자들의 개인정보제공 의사결정이 사이트 이용경험에 따라 어떻게 영향 받는지를 실증적으로 규명하고자 한다. 이를 위하여 사이트 이용과정에서 사이트가 요구하는 개인정보의 속성(정보의 민감도와 관련성)과 사이트에서 제공하는 서비스의 가치를 개인정보 제공의도의 선행 요인으로 설정하여, 이 선행 요인들의 영향에 대한 사이트 이용경험의 조절효과를 실증 분석하였다. 웹 기반 실험을 통해 수집된 데이터의 분석 결과는 정보 속성의 영향에 대한 사이트 이용경험의 조절효과를 보여준다. 구체적으로, 사이트 이용경험이 없는 집단에 비하여, 이용경험이 있는 집단의 경우 개인정보 제공에 대한 민감도의 부정적 영향이 감소하는 반면 관련성의 긍정적 영향은 증대되는 것으로 나타났다. 분석 결과를 바탕으로 인터넷 사용자들의 정보 프라이버시 우려 완화를 위한 시사점과 함께 이론적 시사점을 제시하였다.
