Affective, Cognitive, Behavioral Appeals In A Parasocial Breakup With Podcast Hosts Of Radiolab, M.O. Vilceanu, Kristine Johnson

AMTP Proceedings 2024

This is the first study to investigate parasocial breakups in the context of long-term podcast listening. Radiolab, which is produced by WNYC in New York, is an award-winning program that reaches millions of people. Starting as a radio show in 2002 and later offering a podcast format in 2007, show creators and former hosts, Robert Krulwich and Jad Abumrad, entertained audiences with their journalistic investigations of science-related topics while later incorporating societal and political content in the program. Yet similar to successful long-running television programs, Radiolab has undergone host changes. Today, the official hosts are Latif Nasser and Lulu Miller, …

Making Customers More Loyal: The Role Of Value Cocreation In Branded Apps, Trang Phuc Tran, Adrienne Muldrow, Charlene Dadzie

AMTP Proceedings 2024

The paper develops a conceptual model that examines how value in use enhances value co-creation and then brand loyalty, and captures how value-in-use could change customer perception of branded app entertainment and perceived usefulness, leading to value co-creation. Data from 463 brand app users show that all hypothesized relationships are supported, except H5 (ENT -> COC). That means value co-creation is driven by value-in-use and perceived usefulness, but not by app entertainment. Moreover, value co-creation, in turn, has an impact on brand loyalty. Additionally, mediation effects exist in two paths: first, branded app entertainment and perceived usefulness mediate the effect …

U.S. – China Strategic Rivalry: Decoupling From China Won’T Be Easy, Nader H. Shooshtari, Timothy A. Manuel, Shawn F. Clouse

AMTP Proceedings 2024

Given the increased rivalry between the two countries and growing hostilities over many issues the countries cannot reconcile.

investment by U.S. and other international firms in Chinese supply chain and distribution are so extensive, a wholesale relocation is not feasible. Many U.S. and Western companies are in China to compete for a share of the huge Chinese market. Divesting from China …

Consumer Attitude Toward Physician Practice Ownership: Propositions For Future Research, Gary Futrell

AMTP Proceedings 2024

Employed physicians now outnumber self-employed doctors, with approximately one-third of all U.S. physicians working for a hospital-owned or hospital-affiliated practice and many others employed at larger practices with 11 or more physicians. Consequently, the number of physicians working in small independent practices (those with 10 or fewer physicians) has dropped to nearly 15%. Management literature suggests that ownership of a firm can affect consumer attitudes. Specific to health care, significant research attention has been given to the implications of practice ownership from an operational, managerial, outcomes, and human resources perspective. However, little can be found to address the implications of …

Although electric vehicles (EVs) are being adopted nationwide by many consumers in recent years, car-buyers across South Alabama have not followed the trend. This research considers different stakeholders in the complex consumer buying process of car purchases, and it uses the extant technology adoption models to assess the public policy incentives, as well as statewide roadblocks, to EV adoption.
