초록

Power is an important value that makes people behave, and has been studied in various fields in sociology, psychology, and consumer science. However, more detailed power is required, and a detailed analysis of how consumer information processing is changing depending on the type of power is required. Therefore, this study examines the influence of money, that is, perceived economic power, on consumer behavior among the personal powers suggested by Lammers, Stoker, & Stapel (2009). Consumer's perceived economic power makes us feel psychological confidence and self-efficacy, so we need to understand how the characteristics of perceived economic power can affect consumer's information processing. The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between brand stereotyping, brand attachments, and brand support behaviors, which can be derived from the characteristics of consumers' perceived economic power, through a structural equation model. SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 22.0 were used to analyze the data. The frequency, description, and correlation of the variables were analyzed, and a structural equation model analysis was conducted to evaluate the results. The results of this study are as follows: First, consumers' perceived economic power had a positive effect on brand stereotypes and attachments but did not directly affect brand support behavior. Second, consumers' perceived economic power has a positive impact on brand support behavior through brand stereotypes. Third, perceived economic power has a positive effect on brand support behavior through brand stereotypes and brand attachment. This study suggests that perceived economic power of consumers with money as the resource, and the relationship between consumers' perceived economic power and brand support behavior through the mediation model of brand stereotypes and brand attachment. It can be used to understand consumers' psychological resources and derive brand strategies through these results.
