Özet

Moda tasarımcıları moda ile ilgili eğilimleri tüketicilere dayatmaktadır. Ancak, tüketicilerin beklentilerindeki değişimler ve endüstrinin buna kayıtsız kalamaması tüketici isteklerine yoğunlaşmayı gereklilik haline getirmiştir. Türkiye önemli bir genç nüfusa sahip ve bunların tüketim potansiyelleri kayda değer niteliktedir. Tüketicilerin davranışlarının anlaşılması hızla değişen bir ortamda önemli bir gerekliliktir. Bu çalışmanın amacı tüketicilerin kot pantolon seçiminde etkili olan niteliklerin önceliklerini ortaya çıkarmaktır. Araştırmada kullanılan nitelik ve bu niteliklerin düzeyleri literatür araştırması ve odak grup çalışmasından elde edilmiştir. Araştırma için altı nitelik ve bunlara ait toplam on üç düzey tanımlanmıştır. Nitelikler ve düzeyler Marka (Üst düzey marka, Herhangi bir marka), Menşe (Türk malı, Yabancı), Mağaza (Yüksek imajlı mağaza, Herhangi bir mağaza), Performans (Yakışan, vücuduma tam oturan ve Dayanıklı, sağlam), Stil (Klasik, Modaya uygun, Rahat), Kumaş (%100 pamuk, Karışım) olarak belirlenmiştir. Araştırmanın verileri kolayda örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilen 200 üniversite öğrencisiyle yapılan web tabanlı anketlerden elde edilmiştir. Verilerinin analizinde Konjoint yaklaşımı kullanılmış ve SPSS v23 istatistik programından faydalanılmıştır. Konjoint analizi araştırmacıların bir ürünün tercih edileceğine inandıkları temel niteliklerini inceleyen bir yöntemdir ve en küçük kareler regresyonu yaklaşımını kullanır. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, modaya uygun stil en çok tercih edilen nitelik ve düzey olmuştur. Yüksek imajlı mağaza, üst düzey marka, karışım kumaş, Türk menşe ve dayanıklı performans sırasıyla takip eden nitelik ve düzeyler olarak bulunmuştur.
