Compliant, Aggressive And Detached Types Differ In Generalized Purchasing Involvement, Mark E. Slama, Terrell G. Williams, Armen Tashchian

Faculty and Research Publications

The hypothesis that the detached personality type will be less involved in purchasing than compliant or aggressive personality types is tested and supported. Theoretical implications are discussed.
