This study utilizes social big data to investigate the factors influencing the awareness, attitude, and behavior toward vegan fashion consumption among global and Korean consumers. Social media posts containing the keyword “vegan fashion” were gathered, and meaningful discourse patterns were identified using semantic network analysis and sentiment analysis. The study revealed that diverse factors guide the purchase of vegan fashion products within global consumer groups, while among Korean consumers, the predominant discourse involved the concepts of veganism and ethics, indicating a heightened awareness of vegan fashion. The research then delved into the factors underpinning awareness (comprehension of animal exploitation, environmental concerns, and alternative materials), attitudes (both positive and negative), and behaviors (exploration, rejection, advocacy, purchase decisions, recommendations, utilization, and disposal). Global consumers placed great significance on product-related information, whereas Korean consumers prioritized ethical integrity and reasonable pricing. In addition, environmental issues stemming from synthetic fibers emerged as a significant factor influencing the awareness, attitude, and behavior regarding vegan fashion consumption. Further, this study confirmed the potential presence of cultural disparities influencing overall awareness, attitude, and behavior concerning the acceptance of vegan fashion, and offers insights into vegan fashion marketing strategies tailored to specific cultures, aiming to provide vegan fashion companies and brands with a deeper understanding of their consumer base.

본 연구는 국내 꽃 정기구독 서비스에 대한 소비자의 인식 과 이용 현황 및 선호도를 파악하기 위해 국내 성인 남녀 중 이용자 225명과 비이용자 291명을 대상으로 설문을 진행하 였다. 대부분의 응답자들은 주로 인터넷과 SNS를 통해 꽃 정 기구독 서비스를 접하였고, 꽃 정기구독 서비스 이용자들은 주로 1~2주에 1회(76.9%), 2~4만 원 가격대(60.4%)의 혼합 된 꽃 상품을 구독하고 있었으며, 대부분 이용 기간은 1년 이 내(84.4%)였다. 꽃 정기구독 서비스를 이용하는 곳은 대부분 집(71.6%)으로, 많은 이용자들이 자기 자신(65.8%)을 위해 서비스를 이용하고 있었다. 꽃 정기구독 서비스에 대하여 이 용자와 비이용자 모두 긍정적으로 인식하고 있었으나, 이용자 들은 비이용자들에 비해 꽃 정기구독 서비스의 가격이 합리적 이고, 삶의 질이 향상되었다고 응답해, 서비스 장점에 대하여 이용자가 비이용자에 비해 더욱 긍정적인 것을 알 수 있었다 (p<0.001). 비이용자들은 꽃 정기구독 서비스 단점으로 포장 쓰레기가 많이 나올 것 같고, 신선도가 떨어질 것으로 우려하 였지만, 이와 반대로 이용자들은 그렇지 않다고 응답하였고, 그 외 단점 문항들에 대해서도 서비스 이용 시 크게 불편함을 느끼지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 응답자들은 꽃 정기구독 서비 스 이용 시 선호하는 상품으로 다양한 꽃이 2~4가지 정도 혼 합된 중간 크기(18~20cm×30~40cm, W×H) 상품을 선호 한다고 응답하였고, 꽃 정기구독 서비스 업체를 선정하기 위 해 고려해야 할 요인으로 이용자와 비이용자 모두 신선도, 꽃 구성, 구매 후기를 중요한 요인으로 응답하였다. 꽃 정기구독 서비스 이용 중 추가로 비용을 지불하면서 이용하고 싶은 서 비스에 대하여 응답자들 모두 절화보존제와 프리미엄 디자인 에 대하여 추가 비용을 지불할 의사가 있다고 응답하였다. 꽃 정기구독 서비스 이용자들은 서비스에 대하여 전반적으로 업 체가 제공하는 정보나 상품에 대해 신뢰하고 있었고, 꽃 정기 구독 서비스 비용은 합리적이라며 긍정적으로 평가하였다. 또 한, 본 서비스에 대한 재이용 의사도 높은 것으로 나타났다. 꽃 정기구독 서비스를 통해 본인을 위한 꽃 소비가 점차 늘어 나고 국내 소비자들의 화훼 소비 형태가 다양하게 변화되었음 을 확인하였으며, 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 앞으로 새로운 국 내 화훼산업 시장이 활성화되고, 지속적인 화훼 소비와 국내 화훼 문화의 발전이 이루어질 것으로 기대한다.

목적 : 이 설문 연구는 의료민영화와 안경원의 법인화 문제에 대한 일반 소비자의 인식도를 조사하고 그 결과를 안경사 집단에 대한 선행연구와 비교·분석하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 방법 : 2018년 5월부터 6월까지 서울·경기 지역에서 150명의 일반 소비자를 대상으로 의료민영화와 안경원의 법인화 문제에 대하여 대면설문조사를 실시하고 응답 결과를 통계분석 하였다. 결과 : 일반 소비자 집단은 의료민영화 문제에 대하여 일관되게 부정적인 인식을 나타내었으나, 안경원의 법인화 문제에 대해서는 부정적인 인식이 많지 않고 중립적인 응답의 비율이 매우 높았다. 안경사 집단에 대한 유사한 설문 조사 결과와 비교했을 때, 의료민영화에 대한 인식은 두 집단이 비슷했으나 안경원 법인화에 대한 인식은 큰 차이를 보였다. 결론 : 반 소비자 집단의 안경원 법인화 문제에 대한 부정적인 인식도가 높지 않으므로, 안경사 집단은 일반 소비자 집단을 대상으로 안경원 법인화 문제에 대한 적극적인 홍보를 강화할 필요가 있다.

Product replacement (PPL) is used widely in marketing and plays crucial roles but the effects of the PPL attributes on a restaurant brand are not well known. Therefore, this study examined the effects of PPL attributes on brand awareness and brand credibility. In addition, the relationship among brand awareness, brand credibility, and brand loyalty was investigated. The study found that the characteristics of PPL, such as information and entertainment, affected brand awareness. On the other hand, inconvenience did not have any impact on brand awareness. In addition, information, entertainment, and inconvenience affected brand credibility. Furthermore, brand awareness and credibility influenced brand loyalty significantly. These results suggest that PPL can be a very effective way to advertise. Hence, PPL should be done with a sense of information and entertainment than simply with more frequent exposure to consumers, which that might cause inconvenience.

포도 재배면적과 생산량이 줄고 있는 상황에서도, 재배농가의 끊임없는 노력과 농촌진흥기관의 기술개발을 통해서 한국산 샤인머스캣이 현재 국내 소비자는 물론 해외 소비자들에게 인기를 얻고 있으며, 이에 따라 타 품종에 비해 재배면적과 생산량이 증가하고 있다. 따라서 새로운 수요처 발굴과 수출증대를 통해서 포도 산업의 지속성을 유지하는 것이 무엇보다도 필요한 때이다. 본 연구에서는 중국 소비자들에게 한국산 샤인머스캣을 구매하는데 영향을 주는 요인들(사전, 사후)이 어떻게 평가되고 있는지, 향후 구매로 이어질 수 있는지 여부를 실증적으로 규명하고자, 부분최소자승-구조방정식 모형을 사용해서 2017년 10월 중국 광저우에서 개최된 국제중소기업박랍회 행사장에서 시식과 설문조사를 통해 수집한 유의한 102명의 응답자료를 이용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과, 사전요인(외관, 착색, 신선도, 알 크기) 보다 사후 요인(당도, 식감)이 좋은 평가를 받고 향후 구매로 이어지는데 통계적으로 유의하며 큰 역할을 함을 보였으며 이에 따른 품질관리의 방향성에 대한 시사점을 제공하였다. 다만, 자료의 보완을 통해서 관찰되지 않는 설문응답자 내의 집단을 보다 면밀히 분석해야 할 필요가 있다. 따라서 집단의 특성과 수요에 보다 맞는 맞춤형 품질관리와 수출방안이 뒤따라야 함을 한계로 남긴다. 또한, 조사대상자의 인구통계 특성과 중국 전체 모집단과 차이가 있으므로 분석결과를 해석에 유의할 필요가 있다. 포도수출 확대노력은 포도 생산농가의 소득향상과 경영안정성을 높이고, 국내 포도산업에 활력을 줄 수 있다. 이를 위해서는 또한 신품종에 대한 안정적 생산·수확후 관리기술 개발 및 농가 기술보급, 수출조직 육성이 병행되어야 할 것이다. 또한 일본이 개발한 샤인머스캣 재배에서 더 나아가 소비트렌드에 부합하는 국내품종을 중장기적으로 육성할 필요가 있다. 또한 수출성공을 위해서는 국내 업체간 과당경쟁, 저가경쟁 등을 예방하고, 의견을 조율할 협의체 구성과 함께 한국산 포도라는 점을 내세워 프리미엄 제품을 생산해 중산층 이상의 중국시장 진출을 모색할 필요가 있을 것으로 사료된다.

목적 : 이 설문 연구는 안경사법에 대한 일반소비자 집단의 인식도를 조사하고, 그로부터 안경사법을 입 법하기 위한 효과적인 입법 전략을 도출하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 방법 : 2016년 5월부터 8월까지 서울 지역에서 일반인 200 명을 상대로 무작위 1대1 대면 설문조사를 실 시하고 그 결과를 시력교정 경험자와 미경험자 집단으로 구분하여 분석하였다. 결과 : 일반 소비자 집단의 안경원법에 대한 인식도는 매우 낮은 편이었으며, 그로 인하여 안경사법에 대 한 찬반 의견이나 안경사법의 통과 가능성을 묻는 설문에도 ‘모르겠다’는 중립적 답변이 매우 많았다. 안경 사법이 통과되기 어려운 이유와 그에 대한 해결 방법을 묻는 설문에서는, ‘안과의사들의 반대’와 ‘국민적 합 의 미흡’을 이유로 답하고 해결 방법도 ‘안과의사들과의 합의’와 ‘국민적 합의 제고’라고 응답한 비율이 높았 다. 안경사의 타각적 굴절검사가 허용되면 수용하겠다는 긍정적인 답변이 60%를 넘었으며, 안경사의 타각 적 굴절검사는 의료행위가 아닌 광학적 측정이라는 답변 또한 높은 응답률을 기록하였다. 결론 : 안경사법의 입법 과정에서 일반 소비자들의 낮은 인식도가 큰 걸림돌로 작용하고 있음을 알 수 있 었다. 안경사법의 입법을 위해서는 일반인을 대상으로 하는 홍보를 강화하고, 안과의사 집단과의 합의에 주 력하는 것이 가장 효과적인 방법임을 설문 결과로부터 유추할 수 있다. 일반 소비자 집단은 타각적 굴절검사 가 의료행위라는 인식이 약하고 안경사의 타각적 굴절검사 수용에 적극적이므로, 안경사법의 내용에 대한 대국민 홍보가 강화된다면 안경사법의 입법 과정에 크게 기여할 수 있으리라 예상된다.

Food safety accidents like the occurrence of domestic animal diseases create an air of anxiety in consumers and increase their concerns about animal welfare. This study investigated consumer awareness of animal welfare livestock and attempted to look into the impacts of consumer awareness on the consumption of livestock product. It analyzed whether there was any difference in considerations of purchasing livestock products depending on awareness of animal welfare and consumption intention using Levene's equal variance test and independent sample t-test, and in order to inquire into the influence relationship of their considerations in purchasing livestock on animal welfare livestock product consumption intention, a binary logistic regression analysis was carried out. As a result of the analysis of consumer awareness, consumers were little aware of animal welfare while they were very interested in animal welfare and had the intent to consume livestock products produced following animal welfare. As a result of the analysis of the difference depending on the awareness and consumption intention of animal welfare using independent sample t-test, it turned out that there was no difference in considerations in purchasing livestock products between people who were aware of animal welfare and those who were not. In the difference depending on consumption intention, people who had the intent to consume animal welfare livestock products cared more than those who did not. Likewise, people who had the intent to consume animal welfare livestock products cared about the place of purchase, price, freshness, taste and quality more than those who were not. As a result of the binary logistic regression analysis of the two factors of internal property and external property of consideration in livestock products, it turned out that internal property only had impacts on consumption intention. Thus, considering the consumers' consciousness that they would like to be provided with safe livestock products relevant to items such as safety and reliability among their considerations in purchasing livestock products, the government and livestock industry should establish an appropriate marketing strategy for animal welfare livestock products

This study examined relationships among healthy food awareness, behavioral intention toward healthy foods, and actual behavior of Generation Y consumers. This study hypothesized that Generation Y consumers are aware of healthy foods and more likely to eat healthy foods while avoiding junk foods. According to structural equation modeling, all hypothesized paths were statistically significant, meaning that the three constructs in the model showed positive relationships with each other. Results showed that this group of college students is generally aware of healthy foods and have positive intentions toward healthy food choices. Therefore, university foodservice management needs to continue to improve their menus in order to attract this new generation of college student consumers.

With increasing concerns for the animal welfare, it is required to do a study on consumer's awareness about the necessity of animal welfare products.

Variable c1 had significant probabilities in categories of “over 40s” for age and “under 3 persons" for family size. Variable c2 had significant probabilities in categories of “over 40s” for age, “over 3 million won” for monthly income and “under 3 persons” for family size. Variable c3 had significant probabilities in categories of “over 3 million won” for monthly income and “under 3 persons” for family size. Variable c4 had significant probabilities in categories of “married” for marital status, “over 40s” for age, “over 3 million won” for monthly income and “under 3 persons" for family size. Variable c5 had significant probabilities in categories of “married” for marital status, “over 40s” for age, “over 3 million won" for monthly income and “under 3 persons" for family size. Variable c7 was ranked as the first reason in the categories of “male” for gender, “under 3 million won" for monthly income and “under 3 persons" for family size. Variable c2 was ranked as the first reason in the categories of “single” for marital status, “under 40s” for age and “over 4 persons" for family size. Variable c3 was ranked as the first reason in the categories of “married” for marital status and “over 40s” for age. The results of this study provide important information to policy makers and farmers. The policy makers can use the results when they will make policies related with the animal welfare, and the farmers can use the results when they will make marketing strategies. This study had a few limitations that the survey was conducted at a city, and at a mart. In spite of the limitations, this study will provide important information to future studies

This study had carried out to investigate the usage status of customer, the positive effects and problems, and the most important items of the nutrition labeling at purchasing the food etc. on the current nutrition labeling system in order to establish the customer-centric nutrition labeling system. Survey was carried out by questionnaire method that is targeted on adult female above 20 years old in Seoul and Kyeongnam area from May to June, 2004. For the experience of checking the nutrition label of the processed domestic and imported processed food, 82% and 75.4% of the respondents were replied 'have checked' respectively. For the positive effects due to enforcement of the nutrition labeling system, the respondents agreed highly with 'easy to compare with other products' and 'improve the products quality'. For the problems of the nutrition labeling system, the respondents agreed highly with 'different criteria for each product' and 'incendiary purchasing due to false or exaggerated labeling', and gave the higher scale for the positive effects than the problems relatively. For the necessity of the nutrition labeling system, 96.2% of the respondents were replied 'necessary', and it was indicated a significant difference on age and marital status(p<.01). For the price rising due to enforcement of the nutrition labeling system, 55.2% of respondents agreed, and it was indicated a very significant difference on age and monthly income(p<.001). For the most important nutrition labeling items at purchasing the food, the respondents were replied 'total calorie' on most of the food, and in addition, they checked carefully the lipid, cholesterol, protein, Ca, and Fe.

본 조사는 한국 소비자들의 식중독 경험여부, 식중독 원인균에 대한 지식 및 식품안전과 식중독 예방을 위한 행동에 있어서의 인식 정도를 알아보기 위하여 2001년 11월 일반성인 총 1,040명을 대상으로 전국적으로 전화조사를 실시하였다. 그 결과 12.4%는 연 1회 이상 식중독을 경험하고 있으며, 0.3%는 식중독으로 인해 병원에 입원하는 것으로 나타났다. 식중독이 발생한 원인장소로는 일반음식점에서의 음식 섭취가 37.2%로 가장 높게 나타났고, 가정에서의 부주의가 212.%등으로 나타났으며, 원인식품으로는 고기 등의 육류 및 가공품이 41.7%, 생선 등 어패류 및 가공품이 18.7% 등으로 나타났다. 식중독 원인균에 대한 인식에서는 콜레라(75.5%), 비브리오(73%), 이질(65.5%), 장티푸스(51.8%), 살모넬라증(47.5%)의 순으로 잘 알고 있는 것으로 나타났지만 리스테리아증(9.9%), 브루셀라증(8.3%)에 대해서는 대부분이 모르거나 음식물로 인해 발생하지 않는 것으로 인식하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 조사자료를 바탕으로 3가지 모델로 구분 즉, Model 1은 식중독 원인균에 대한 지식, Model 2는 식품안전에 대한 인식, Mode 3은 식중독예방을 위한 행동에 대한 인식으로 구분하였고, 각 모델들은 조사자의 일반사항에서 나타난 변수와 식중독 경험여부 별로 다중회귀분석(Multiple regression analysis)을 수행하였다. 그 결과 식중독 원인균에 대한 인식(Model 1)은 여러 변수 중 교육수준(OR 0.536), 결혼상태(OR 0.529)가 영향요인으로 나타났으며, 특히, 과거 식중독 경험이 가장 중요한 영향요인으로 나타났다(OR 1.714). 식품안전에 대한 인식(Model 2)에서는 교육수준이 중요한 영향요인으로 나타났으며(OR 0.702), 식중독 예방을 위한 행동에 대한 인식(Model 3)에서는 교육수준(OR 0.816)과 성별(OR 0.650)이 중요한 영향으로 나타났으며, 과거 식중독 경험이나 식품안전에 대한 인식정도는 식중독 예방을 위한 행동에 대한 인식과는 상관관계가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 식품안전에 있어 경험과 지식은 실제 식중독 예방을 위한 행동에는 크게 영향을 미치지 않음을 의미하는 것으로 볼 수 있다.

This study examined the consumers' awareness and information need toward the irradiated foods and environmental hormones. The data were collected from 350 adults living in Daegu and Busan by the self-administered questionnaire. Frequencies and chi-square tests were conducted by SPSS. The results of the survey were as follows: (1) consumers' awareness regarding the irradiated foods and environmental hormones were low, while consumers' concerns for them were high, (2) the orders of the information needs for the irradiated foods are safety of irradiated foods, dose permitted for food irradiation, benefits of irradiated foods, kinds of permitted irradiated foods, and legislations of food irradiation, and (3) the orders of the information needs for the environmental hormones are harmfulness of environmental hormones, standards for contamination by environmental hormones, materials releasing environmental hormones, methods to prevent environmental hormones, and kinds of environmental hormones.

This, an association research for design-improvement and model-development of exhibition shops at rural tourism communities, is to secure objective data by analyzing customers' awareness-tendency of and demand for agricultural-specialty exhibition shops. Survey-questions for finding out consumers' awareness-tendency and demand were determined through brainstorming of a professional council, 30 rural communities of which visit-rate by consumers is considerably high were selected for the recruit of 200 consumers. For investigation and analysis, survey and in-depth interview were carried out at the scene with the application of frequency analysis and summarization of their opinions, which revealed that they have a strong will to visit the rural tourism communities for the purchase of agricultural specialties along with the experience of learning-program and on-the-scene direct dealing and that their viewpoint on the direct dealing at the scene was very positive. Also it was confirmed hat their satisfaction with the purchase of agricultural specialties by on-the-scene direct dealing, their pleasure at the purchase, their satisfaction with services and their intention for re-purchase of them were very high while their satisfaction with the exhibition shops was very low. With on-the-scene survey, the consumers' opinions could be listened to in depth. Almost all of them said their satisfaction with the trip to those rural tourism communities was considerably high since they could go to those communities themselves to relieve the stress from their modern life, to experience healing and to see the goods on the scene. Their satisfaction also was attributed to the fact that they have enough trust in purchase along with feeling the warm-heartedness of rural residents. As to their awareness of exhibition shops, they showed a positive response to the on-the-scene direct dealing at rural communities while they, thinking that the space in those exhibition shops was not sufficiently wide, demanded for more systematic counters in more accessible and affordable exhibition shops so that they might be more satisfied with the exhibition shops. Their demand for the necessity of exhibition shops selling agricultural specialties was found to be over 80%, which indicates that the necessity is very high. As to the suitability of function, they have the opinion that the business at those shops had better be focused on sales since they have the understanding of information when they take a trip to the rural communities, while there was another opinion: since agricultural products are seasonal items they should be exhibited and sold at the same time. More than 90% of the respondents had a positive viewpoint on direct dealing of agricultural specialties on the scene, which showed that their response to it was very high. They preferred the permanent shops equipped with roll-around table-booths. In addition, it was revealed that they want systematic exhibition shops in rural communities because they frequent those communities for on-the-scene direct purchase. The preferred type and opinion resulting from estimation of consumers' demands have been reflected for development of practical designs. The structure of variable principles has been designed so that the types of display-case and table-booth might be created. The result of this study is a positive data as a design model which can be utilized at rural communities and will be commercialized for the verification of its validity.
