자율주행차의 사회적 수용성에 영향을 미치는 사회·경제적 요인 = Socio-economic Factors Affecting Social Acceptance of Autonomous Vehicles in Korea

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this study is to derive socio-economic parameters that have major effects on public acceptance on autonomous vehicles. Currently, advanced countries vigorously supporting vehicle technology development to stimulate its’ commercialization which raising concerns on social acceptance of the technology. To examine the perception, authors utilized survey results conducted by recruiting 912 respondents consisted of three groups depending on their expertise in vehicles technology, transportation engineers and vocational drivers, and general public. Ordinal logistic regression model was employed for analyzing the data and drew statistically significant socio-economic factors. The results show that gender, age and prior experiences of car accidents were significantly affects responders perception on autonomous vehicles. Authors expect that results of this research could contribute to the field by providing socio-economic factors that have effects on public acceptance on autonomous vehicle.

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 논문의 목적은 자율주행차의 사회적 수용성에 영향을 미치는 사회·경제적 요인을 파악하는 것이다. 현재 각국은 자율주행차의 상용화를 촉진하기 위해 기술개발과 정책지원을 하고 있다. 새로운 자율주행 기술이 자동차에 접목되면서 사회적 수용성의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 자율주행차의 사회적 수용성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 도출하고자 912명을 대상으로 일반인, 전문가, 직업 운전자 등 3개 그룹으로 구분하여 설문조사를 실시하였다. 설문조사 결과를 기반으로 순서형 로지스틱 회귀분석 모델을 개발·적용하여 사회·경제적 요인 중에서 통계적으로 유의한 요인을 도출하였다. 분석 결과, 사회경제적 지표인 성별, 연령, 자동차 사고 경험이 자율주행차에 대한 수용성에 미치는 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 자율주행차에 대한 일반 국민의 인식과 수용성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 제시하였다는 데 그 의의가 있다.
