Ceo Compensation And Csr Linked Initiatives: An Exploratory Study, Neema Desamu Thorpe, Nik Nikolov, Pramod Iyer

Symposium of Student Scholars

Using a hand collected sample of annual corporate ESG reports, I propose to study the link between CEO compensation and ESG performance and its implications for firm performance. Using stakeholder theory, I propose that companies that link CEO pay with ESG outcomes would perform better in the stock market. This is conditional on other variables, such as diversity of the board and ESG report status.

Unveiling Paradoxes: The Unforeseen Impact Of Content Moderation Policies In E-Commerce, Brandon Holle, Hang Nguyen, Suman Basuroy

Faculty Scholarship Symposium

In the dynamic digital marketplace, content moderation policies, specifically those addressing 'review bomb' removal, are designed to improve customer experience, nurture consumer trust, and enhance firm performance. However, our comprehensive research, comprising three studies utilizing real-world field data analyzed through regression discontinuity-in-time design and experimental investigations, reveals a surprisingly striking paradox. In contrast to their intended benefits, these policies yield an unexpected adverse impact on user behavior, the e-commerce platform, and listed product performance, resulting in a significant 27.25% drop in total users for products on the e-commerce platform. Drawing from expectancy disconfirmation theory, we uncover the mechanism underpinning this …


Marketing Campaign For Pope County Habitat For Humanity, Hailey Addison Apr 2023

Marketing Campaign For Pope County Habitat For Humanity, Hailey Addison

ATU Research Symposium

Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit organization that assists families by building them homes. Habitat raises funds, interviews families in need and chooses a candidate, builds a home, and then gives the house to the family. What sets this organization however, is that they give a “hand up, not a hand out”. Instead of just giving them a house, they require the family to help build it. Also, the family is expected to pay an affordable mortgage back to Habitat. This philosophy promotes a sense of ownership in these new homeowners, and hopefully that will encourage them to take good …

3rd IBA SBS International Conference 2024

The intended research will target the problem of lack of LBA application and ineffective utilization of LBA in mobile advertising in digital marketing. Not much focus has been given to this area of marketing in the existing literature as well as practice in the context of the FMCG sector in Karachi, Pakistan. Wibisurya (2018) alluded that LBA has the potential to positively influence a consumer’s behavior towards a type of advertisement being carried out. However, FMCG marketers show a significant lack of interest in the domain. Moreover, LBA performed through SMS advertising increases two-way communication between consumers and FMCG brands, …

Introduction and Literature Review: Over 3.8 billion people use social media that is around 45% of the world’s population(Statista, 2022). The ever evolving technologies and the adaption of these technologies is changing how we access information, how we communicate, and how we respond to different stimuli (Ospina, 2019). How we communicate, listen, and interpret using a domain of social media is termed as social listening (Stewart & Arnold, 2018). Specifically, social listening …

Neuromarketing: A Bibliometric Perspective Of The Field, Raja Rub Nawaz, Saniya Fayaz

3rd IBA SBS International Conference 2024

With an increase in studies relating to consumer perceptions, behaviors, cognition and potential markets, researchers are trying to understand the science of neuromarketing and the copious possibilities it puts forth. The present reviews in the field of neuromarketing are often limited when it comes to the scope or the discussion of documents and further subjects. This serves as a limitation to the consolidative and theoretical implications in the field. The study addresses this theoretical and methodological gap by charting the bibliometric analysis using the citation, and cooccurrence approaches by analyzing a total of 396 articles extracted from the Web of …

Gender Inequality In Sport Illustrated Advertisements, Elizabeth Kelly

Student Scholar Showcase

As sports have increased over the years, so has the media coverage and representation of teams and athletes. Women’s athletics drastically grew after the establishment of Title IX in 1972.

With a total of 497 advertisements analyzed, the improvement of female representation was evident. The number of female athletes featured in media outlets has increased, yet is still not equal to male athletes. While female athletes are featured more than previous years, …

The Effect Of Scarcity On Consumer Purchase Intentions, Jeremy Sanders, Stephanie Morgan Apr 2014

The Effect Of Scarcity On Consumer Purchase Intentions, Jeremy Sanders, Stephanie Morgan

Innovate UNO

Can placing time constraints on promotions result in increased consumer response? According to Brannon and Brock (2001), when consumers are aware of product scarcity, they are more likely to exhibit greater purchase intentions. Our goal is to test if scarcity positively influences consumer preference when consumers are informed that the product is available for a limited time only. We ran an experiment that involved 100 actual Starbucks consumers. We handed out two different sets of questionnaires at five different Starbucks stores in St. Tammany Parish and Orleans Parish. In the experimental condition, consumers learned that Pumpkin Spice Latte would be …
