Abstract

This study is designed to test the effects of innovativeness, information dependency, informative sufficiency, and review reliability on perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and eventually continuous use in mobile bakery applications and to provide useful information for the bakery industry. A total of 500 questionnaires were distributed for data collection from September $1^{st}$ to $30^{th}$ in 2014. Out of 455 returned questionnaires, 441 were useable. Statistical techniques utilized in the study were a factor analysis, reliability tests, and a covariance structure analysis using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 18.0. The results were as follows: first, innovativeness had significant effects on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Second, information dependency had significant effects on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Third, informative sufficiency had significant effects on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Fourth, review reliability had significant effects on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Fifth, perceived ease of use had a significant effect on perceived usefulness. Finally, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use had significant effects on the continuous use of a mobile bakery application.

본 연구는 모바일 베이커리 어플리케이션에 대한 혁신성, 정보의존성, 정보제공 충분성 및 리뷰 신뢰성이 지각된 유용성과 지각된 용이성 그리고 최종적으로 지속적 이용에 미치는 영향관계를 검증하여 베이커리산업에 유용한 정보를 제시하고자 하였다. 자료 수집은 2014년 9월 1일부터 30일까지 실시하였으며, 설문지는 총 500부를 배포하여 455부를 회수하였고, 이 중 통계분석이 가능한 441부에 대하여 SPSS 18.0과 AMOS 18.0을 이용하여 요인분석과 신뢰성 검증을 실시하고, 제시된 연구가설을 검증하기 위해서 공분산 구조분석을 실시하였다. 분석결과, 첫째, 혁신성은 지각된 유용성과 지각된 용이성에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 정보의존성은 지각된 유용성과 지각된 용이성에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 정보제공 충분성은 지각된 유용성과 지각된 용이성에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 넷째, 리뷰신뢰성은 지각된 유용성과 지각된 용이성에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 다섯째, 지각된 용이성은 지각된 유용성에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 마지막으로 지각된 유용성과 지각된 용이성은 모바일 베이커리 어플리케이션의 지속적 이용에 유의적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다.
