This study aimed to investigate the effects of innate innovativeness of young female adults on involvement and fashion innovativeness. To explain conceptual structure of adult women's fashion innovativeness, 4 dimensions of innate innovativeness were adopted as explanatory variables, and fashion involvement and clothing involvement were included as mediating variables. Date collecting using written survey instrument yielded 801 complete responses from female consumers aged between 20 and 39. Factor analysis on innate innovativeness resulted in 4 dimensional structures of innate innovativeness for the sample: uniqueness seeking, risk taking, newness seeking and dramatic stimulus seeking. All of these significantly and directly affected fashion innovativeness, however, uniqueness seeking, newness seeking and dramatic stimulus seeking except risk taking significantly and indirectly affected fashion innovativeness through fashion involvement and clothing involvement.

This study investigated consumer innovativeness by examining a relationship model of innate innovativeness, product interest, product-specific innovativenss, and actualized innovativeness for eight product items as well as observed gender differences in the variables. The eight product items for the survey were smartphones, movies, clothing, cars, skin care products/cosmetics, traveling, AI products, and books. An online survey was conducted in January 2018, and 400 responses from male and female consumers in their twenties and thirties, were analyzed using reliability test, descriptive statistics, regression, and ANCOVA. The positive effect of innate innovativeness and product interest on product-specific innovativeness, and positive effect of innate innovativeness and product-specific innovativeness on actualized innovativeness were confirmed. Product interest was found to have a stronger power on product-specific innovativeness than innate innovativeness. Gender differences in product interest, product-specific innovativeness, and actualized innovativeness were identified as hypothesized. Female consumer's clothing interest, clothing innovativenss, and actualized clothing innovativeness were higher than male consumers; in addition, male consumer's cars and AI interest, cars and AI innovativenss, and actualized cars and AI innovativeness were higher than female's. The controversial results that indicated the higher innate innovativeness of male consumers useful to further in-depth discussion and research. This study contributed to the theory construction of consumer innovativeness research areas and offered practical implications for new product launching and customer relationship management.

This study investigated difference of product interest and its relation to consumers' innate innovativeness according to gender as well as compared the perceptive construct of products between male and female consumers. A survey involving male and female college students was conducted in the Daegu and Gyeongbuk areas in December 2013. Subsequently, 400 responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlations, independent sample t-test, reliability analysis, ANCOVA, and multidimensional scaling. Among 45 products, male respondents showed a significantly high degree of interest over 12 categories such as watches, desktop computers, cars, sports products, and video games compared to females. The female sample showed a significantly high degree of interest for 29 product categories such as clothing, movies, skin care shops, cosmetics, eating-out, teeth whitening, coffee, cameras, and performances compared to males. Innovative male consumers were interested in traveling, movies, clothing, eating-out, running shoes, and wallets; however, female consumers' innovativeness was significantly related to previously determined items of interest. Two dimensions explaining the male consumers' products perception construct were 'hard versus soft' and 'usual versus special'. Instead, female consumers' were 'special versus usual' and 'expressive versus functional'.

본 논문은 바이오산업분야 신제품의 수용영향요인을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 생명공학 및 첨단기술제품에 대한 소비자 태도관련 선행연구 분석을 통해 바이오신제품의 수용에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 변수들을 도출한 후 연구모델을 설정하였다. 조사 분야는 유전자 및 제대혈 치료, 유전자조작 식물 및 동물, 그리고 바이오디젤 등 3개 분야 5개 품목으로 하였다. 분석 결과 지각 이익과 특정산업(바이오)관련 혁신성이 소비자의 구매의사에 긍정적인 영향을 미치지만 신뢰와 미지에 대한 공포 등은 통계적으로 유의미한 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다.

Recently, due to the rapid development of IT (information technologies), a variety of attempts have been made to incorporate IT into other fields such as finance and manufacturing. Among them, a novel concept in the spotlight is FinTech, which is a combined word of finance and technology. FinTech is a line of business demonstrating an innovation development through IT in the financial service industry. One of the most popular types of FinTech is a third-party mobile payment service (MPS), the examples of which can be easily found in South Korea while the actual use of the service is relatively inactive. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper is to empirically investigate influencing factors of intention to use the third-party MPS. Based on individual characteristics and the task-technology fit model, the research model of the study is developed, with switching cost included as a moderating variable. The results of structural equation model testing with 316 potential users of Kakao Pay, one of the most popular business models of the third-party MPS, show that innate innovativeness, task characteristics, and technology characteristics are positively influencing task-technology fit, which in turn significantly affects intention to use the third-party MPS. The negative moderating role of switching cost is also found. These results could help managers develop better strategies to motivate potential users to participate in their services.
