초록

본 연구에서는 매몰비용이 발생한 의사결정 상황에서 예상되는 후회의 역할뿐 아니라 개인차 변인들의 중요성을 동시에 고려하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 예상되는 후회가 매몰비용 오류 행동에 미치는 효과가 개인의 자기효능감에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지를 알아보았다. 연구결과, 매몰비용이 발생한 상황에서 유지후회를 예상하게 했을 때 매몰비용 오류 행동은 크게 감소하였지만, 포기후회를 예상하게 했을 때 매몰비용 오류 행동은 크게 영향을 받지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 매몰비용 오류 행동에 미치는 유지후회의 효과는 자기효능감이 낮은 사람보다 높은 사람에게 더 크게 나타났다. 특히, 자기효능감이 높은 사람은 포기후회든 유지후회든 예상되는 후회에 더 민감하게 반응하였다. 본 연구는 매몰비용 오류 행동에 미치는 예상되는 후회의 역할뿐 아니라 예상되는 후회가 매몰비용 오류 행동에 영향을 미칠 때 개인의 자기효능감이 조절적 역할을 할 수 있다는 것을 밝혔다는데 의의가 있다. 따라서 매몰비용이 발생한 의사결정 상황에서 예상되는 후회의 예측력은 자기효능감과 같은 개인적 변인들을 고려할 때 매몰비용 오류 행동을 보다 잘 예측할 수 있다는 것을 시사해준다.

Abstract

This study examined the role of anticipated regret as well as the importance of individual differences in making decision under sunk cost situation. And this study investigated how the individual’s self-efficacy changes the influence of anticipated regret about withdrawal and persistence on the sunk cost fallacy behavior. Results showed that anticipating regret about persistence decreased sunk cost fallacy behavior but anticipating regret about withdrawal did not change it. Also, there was strong and significant effect of anticipated regret about persistence on the sunk cost fallacy behavior for individuals with a high self-efficacy. Especially, individuals with a high self-efficacy was more sensitive both anticipated regret about persistence and withdrawal than individuals with a low self-efficacy. This study indicates that the impact on sunk cost fallacy behavior of anticipated regret is moderated by self-efficacy. Therefore it suggests that the predictive power of anticipated regret on sunk cost fallacy behavior will be enhanced if individual differences such as self-efficacy are taken into account.
