The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of dietary pursuit benefits on the attitude and purchase intention of functional bakery products to help establish a target market and market segmentation strategy for functional bakery products to provide directions for future marketing strategies. The sample was made of college students living in Seoul and Gyeonggi-do, and the questionnaire prepared by the self-entry method was conducted in March 2022. As a result of factor analysis, dietary pursuit benefits were derived as four factors: health and nutrition pursuit type, taste pursuit type, trend and experience pursuit type, and symbol pursuit type, and attitude and purchase intention were derived as a single factor, respectively. As a result of the hypothesis test, it was found that the health and nutrition pursuit type, trend and experience pursuit type, and symbol pursuit type had a positive (+) effect on consumers' attitudes toward functional bakery products, and the health and nutrition pursuit type and trend and experience pursuit type had a positive (+) effect on purchase intention. In addition, it was found that consumers' attitudes toward functional bakery products had a positive and significant influence on purchase intention.
