공정무역 커피 소비자들의 재 구매의도에 영향을 미치는 요인들에 대한 연구

초록

This study analyzed regular fair-trade coffee consumers’intentions of repurchasing fair-trade coffee in the framework of TRA, and explored the relationships between their attitudes and repurchase intentions, and between their subjective norm and repurchase intentions. Furthermore, this study investigated regular fair-trade coffee consumers’ empathy and self-actualization which affect their attitude towards their behavior of purchasing fair-trade coffee. Additionally, degrees of their sense of belonging to fair-trade coffee communities, associations or online cafes were examined as a moderating variable in order to explore moderating effects of the sense of belonging on relationships among constructs in the present study’s proposed research model. A survey was administered to consumers who regularly purchase fair-trade coffee. The analysis results can be summarized as follows: First, both empathy and self-actualization positively affected attitudes. Second, both the attitude and the subjective norm statistically influence the repurchase intention. Third, the results indicate that the sense of belonging showed its moderating effects on the relationship between attitudes and repurchase intentions. Finally, the present study discussed about limitations of the study as well as theoretical and practical implications.
