Abstract

This study was conducted by empirically analyzing the relation between effects of positive emotional response of female customers, who have at some point consumed food at Korean restaurants in Busan, and behavioral intention according to their food service consumption propensity. In order to achieve the objective of the study, the questionnaire survey was performed from March $10^{th}$ to $25^{th}$, and frequency analysis, confirmatory factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, and SEM (structure equation model) were conducted by using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS for 248 questionnaires. As a result of an exploratory factor analysis, five factors were confirmed. In a confirmatory factor analysis, the average variance extracted (AVE) and composite reliability (CR) were confirmed as .508 to .665 and .905 to .946 respectively, which proved the convergent validity. In a hypothesis test, Hypothesis 1 was determined that the food service consumption propensity positively effects on emotional response. The results were as follows: the taste driven (${\beta}$=.325, t=3.907, p<.001), the health driven (${\beta}$=.190, t=2.688, p<.001), and the atmosphere driven (${\beta}$=.188, t=2.515, p<.001). Therefore, Hypothesis 1 was selected. Hypothesis 1 has determined that positive emotional response beneficially affects behavioral intention. As a result of an analysis, the standardized path coefficient was (${\beta}$=.496, t=6.388, p<.001), so Hypothesis 1 was selected. This result suggests that the taste driven factor has the biggest influence on emotional response in the food service consumption propensity for female customers, and food service business operators should strive to make a good restaurant atmosphere for customers to get positive emotional response (pleasure, comfort, satisfaction, and joy).

본 연구는 전문한식당을 이용한 경험이 있는 부산지역 여성들을 대상으로 외식소비성향에 따른 긍정적 감정반응이 행동의도에 미치는 영향관계를 실증적으로 분석하고자 한다. 연구의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 3월 10일부터 3월 25일까지 설문조사를 진행하여 248부를 SPSS 18.0과 AMOS을 이용하여 빈도분석 확인적 요인분석 및 신뢰도분석, 상관관계분석, 구조방정식 모형(SEM : structure equation model)을 시행하였다. 탐색적 요인분석 결과, 5개의 요인으로 분석되었고, 확인적 요인분석에서 평균분산추출값(AVE)은 .508~.665이고, 합성신뢰도(CR)값은 .905~946값으로 집중타당성이 있는 것으로 판명되었다. 가설 검정에서 가설 1은 외식소비성향은 긍정적 감정반응에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 설정하였는데, 맛 추구형(${\beta}$=.325, t=3.907, p<.001), 건강 추구형 (${\beta}$=.190, t=2.688, p<.001), 분위기 추구형 (${\beta}$=.188, t=2.515, p<.001)로 분석되어 가설 1은 채택되었다. 가설 2는 긍정적인 감정반응은 행동의 도에 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 설정하였는데, 표준화 경로계수가 ${\beta}$=.496(t=6.388, p<.001) 분석되어 가설 2는 채택되었다. 외식업체 경영자들은 여성고객들의 외식소비성향에서 맛 추구형이 긍정적인 감정반응에 가장 큰 영향력이 있다는 점과 고객들이 긍정적 감정반응(유쾌함, 편안함, 만족함, 즐거움)을 느낄 수 있도록 업체의 분위기를 만드는 것이 중요하다는 시사점을 제시하고 있다.
