ABSTRACT Existing research indicates that the threat of sanctions and social learning constructs are associated with one’s involvement in digital piracy. Yet, there is minimal information on the role of Internet service providers (ISPs) in dissuading users from engaging in digital piracy. Our study aims to explore the relationship between sanctions, peers, neutralization, and digital piracy. Findings from a sample of college students in South Korea reveal that while deviant peer associations and definitions supportive of piracy were positively linked to music and software piracy, warning of service termination from ISPs was negatively associated with the two forms of piracy. The impact of legal sanctions on both forms of piracy was not supported. Policy implications and directions for future research are discussed.

使用威慑、社会学习和中和观点的数字盗版决定因素

摘要 现有研究表明，制裁和社会学习结构的威胁与个人参与数字盗版有关。然而，关于互联网服务提供商 (ISP) 在阻止用户参与数字盗版方面的作用的信息很少。我们的研究旨在探讨制裁、同行、无效化和数字盗版之间的关系。来自韩国大学生样本的调查结果表明，虽然支持盗版的异常同龄人协会和定义与音乐和软件盗版呈正相关，但来自 ISP 的服务终止警告与这两种形式的盗版呈负相关。不支持法律制裁对两种形式的盗版的影响。讨论了未来研究的政策含义和方向。
