Abstract

기존의 전자책 연구들이 이용과 충족 이론과 기술수용모형 중심으로 이루어졌던 반면, 본 논문은 전자책의 확산을 어렵게 만드는 원인을 혁신저항모형을 토대로 분석하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 혁신특성으로 상대적 이점, 적합성, 복잡성을, 사용자특성으로는 혁신에 대한 태도, 기존제품(종이책)에 대한 태도를 변수로 도출하여 연구모형을 설정하였다. 온라인 설문조사를 실시해 각 변수들이 혁신저항에 미치는 영향을 알아보고 혁신저항과 수용의도의 관계를 검증하였다. 연구결과, 복잡성과 기존제품(종이책)에 대한 태도가 혁신저항에 영향을 미치는 결정 요인이었고, 혁신저항은 수용의도에 부정적인 영향을 미쳤다. 따라서 전자책의 구매에서부터 독서 경험 전 과정의 용이성을 높이는 데 주력해야 하며, 종이책의 사용경험과 차별화 되는 전자책 고유의 상호작용적 기능과 특성을 개발하고 부각해야 한다. While past studies on e-books have mainly focused on the uses and gratifications (UG) and technology acceptance model(TAM), this study rather analysed the innovation resistance factors of adopting the e-book based on the innovation resistance model. The research model comprises of two factors: 1) innovation characteristics which include relative advantages, compatability and complexity, 2) user characteristics which encompass attitudes towards innovation and existing products (i.e., paper books). Using online survey questionnaire, this study examined the effects of those innovation and user characteristics on the innovation resistance, and the relationship between innovation resistance and intention of adoption. The results showed that complexity and attitude towards existing products affected the innovation resistance which has negative influence on the intention of adoption. Accordingly, it is necessary to improve the ease of use in the whole process from purchase to reading experiences, and highlight e-books' own interactive features and functions which are perceived as different from paper-book user experience.
