Çevrimiçi Satın Almalarda Tüketicinin Risk Algısı: İki Boyutlu Ürün Görüntüleme ve Artırılmış Gerçeklik (Üç Boyutlu Ürün Görüntüleme) Uygulamalarına İlişkin Bir Karşılaştırma

Abstract

Her satın alma koşulunda olduğu gibi çevrimiçi satın almalarda da tüketici satın alma kararını verme aşamasında belirli seviyede risk ile karşı karşıya kalmaktadır. Çevrimiçi satın almalarda tüketicilerin ürün bilgisini toplama ve değerlendirme faaliyetleri algılanan riski ve dolayısıyla satın alma kararlarını doğrudan etkilemektedir. Günümüzde online perakendecilikle ilgili önemli gelişmelerden birisi ürün bilgisi toplama sırasında arttırılmış gerçeklik gibi yeni teknolojilerin kullanılmasıdır. Bu teknolojilerin sundukları faydalar arasında tüketicilerin bilgi toplama süreçlerini kolaylaştırmak ve satın alma öncesinde belli seviyede ürün deneme imkanını sunmak bulunmaktadır. Bu durum göz önüne alındığı zaman bu teknolojilerin tüketicilerin risk algısında da farklılıklar yaratması beklenmektedir. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı algılanan riskin boyutlarının farklı ürün görüntüleme teknolojileri bağlamında farklılıklarını tanımlamaktır. Tüketicilerin risk algısı arasındaki farklılıkların tanımlanabilmesi amacıyla tek faktörlü (2-boyutlu ve 3-boyutlu ürün görüntüleme) bir deney uygulanmıştır. Deneye İstanbul’da üniversite okumakta olan öğrenciler katılmıştır. Deneklerin tamamı ürün grubunun aksesuar olması nedeniyle kadınlardan oluşmaktadır. Riskin boyutlandırılması ve ürün görüntüleme koşulları arasındaki farklılıkların tanımlanabilmesi amacıyla Kısmi En Küçük Kareler yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular ürün görüntüleme teknolojilerinin tüketicilerin risk algısı üzerinde önemli farklılıklar yarattığını ortaya koymaktadır.

Consumers’ Perceived Risk in Online Purchasing: A Comparison Concerning 2d Product Visualization and Augmented Reality Applications (3d Product Visualization)

Abstract

Consumers face a certain level of risk during online purchasing as any given purchase situation. During online purchases consumers’ information collection and processing activities directly affects their risk perception and thus purchasing decisions. One major development in online retailing today is the use of new technologies such as augmented reality during the collection of product information. The benefits offered by these technologies facilitate consumers' information gathering processes and offer a certain level of product testing prior to a purchase. When taken into consideration these technologies are expected to create differences in the risk perception of consumers. The main purpose of this study is to define the differences of perceived risk in the context of different product visualization technologies. A single-factor (2-D and 3-D product visualization) experiment was used to identify the differences between the risk perception of consumers. Students of a Istanbul University were used as subjects. As the product line used were accessories all of the subjects were female. To classify possible risk dimensions and to define the differences between two purchasing situations the data was analyzed with Partial Least Squares method. The findings suggest that product visualization technologies create a significant difference in consumers’ risk perception.
