Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of brand evidence on brand value, brand trust, brand attitude and word of mouth intention. To achieve the purpose of the study, a research model and hypothesis were established based on previous studies, and survey was conducted on 222 passengers who had used the airline. As a result of the analysis, sub-factors of airline brand evidence had a positive impact on brand value. Except for employee services, perceived prices, core services, brand names, and brand logo had a positive impact on brand value. Brand value had a significant positive effect on brand trust and brand attitude. It was also found that brand trust had a significant influence on brand attitude. This study examined the extended range by adding the brand logo as a sub-factor of brand evidence, and it is considered necessary to study including brand emotion in next study.

본 연구는 항공시장의 소비자인 승객들이 인지하는 항공사의 다양한 브랜드 증거가 브랜드 가치와 브랜드 신뢰, 브랜드 태도 및 구전 의도에 미치는 영향에 관하여 분석하고자 하였다. 연구목적을 달성하기 위해 선행연구를 토대로 연구모형과 가설을 수립하였으며, 222명의 항공여행 및 항공사 이용을 경험한 승객들을 대상으로 설문을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 항공사의 브랜드 증거의 하위요인이 브랜드 가치에 미치는 영향을 살펴보면 종사자 서비스를 제외한 지각된 가격, 핵심 서비스, 브랜드명, 브랜드 로고는 브랜드 가치에 긍정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 브랜드 가치는 브랜드 신뢰와 브랜드 태도에 유의한 긍정적인 영향을 나타냈다. 그리고 브랜드 신뢰는 브랜드 태도, 브랜드 태도는 구전 의도에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 본 연구는 브랜드 증거의 하위요인으로 브랜드 로고를 추가하여 확장된 범위를 살펴보았지만 향후 브랜드 감정 등의 변수를 포함하여 확장된 연구하는 것이 필요하다 여겨진다.
