Sme Marketing Performance: A Mixed-Method Study On Resilient Compositional Capability, Sugianto Sugianto, Ramadania Ramadania, Wenny Pebrianti

Asia Marketing Journal

This study examines how Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in developing markets achieve marketing performance through resilient compositional capability despite resource constraints. Using data from 435 SMEs in West Borneo, Indonesia, and employing a mixed-method approach, we find that marketing innovation, government support, and organizational ambidexterity positively influence resilient compositional capability. Our results show that while government support and organizational ambidexterity directly impact marketing performance, marketing innovation's effect is mediated by resilient compositional capability. Furthermore, we find that resilient compositional capability significantly mediates the relationship between all independent variables and marketing performance, validating the Composition-Based View's (CBV) premise that firms …

Factor analysis and K-means clustering were employed to segment the market based on demographics and purchasing behavior. Three distinct customer segments emerged: the ``All-Participation Group'' highly involved in all purchasing decision factors, focusing on product performance, price, and shopping convenience; the ``Product-Oriented Group'' prioritizing product performance and cost-effectiveness, with a preference for convenient search channels; and the ``Perceived Control & Promotion Group'' influenced by promotions, cautious about product damage, and favoring easy …

How Implicit Theories Can Enhance Or Reduce Charitable Behavior, Yoni Yoon, Jongwon Park

Asia Marketing Journal

Whether real or merely conceived, the distance to beneficiaries impairs individuals' generosity. This makes it important, both theoretically and practically, to identify factors that can promote prosocial behavior toward distant others. The present research identifies implicit self-theories (i.e., individuals' lay beliefs about the malleability or fixedness of human attributes–-incremental vs. entity theory) as one such factor. Four experiments demonstrate that incremental (vs. entity) theory enhances charitable behavior to distant others by decreasing perceived social distance toward them. We also show that this effect attenuates when the beneficiary is socially close, as consistent with the mediation mechanism. Furthermore, by combining the …

Asia Marketing Journal

The metaverse, expected to grow into a trillion-dollar market by 2030, is driving global investments across technology, economy, and even education. This research examines the interactions between consumers and avatars, a core element of the metaverse, to understand their influence on consumer identity, behavior, and attitudes. Based on the self-extension and self-expansion theories, the study uses immersive netnography to investigate consumer-avatar dynamics on the ZEPETO platform. Findings indicate that avatars act as extensions of the self, where consumers express control, create, and seek knowledge. Additionally, interactions between avatars contribute to self-expansion, as consumers incorporate the resources, perspectives, and characteristics of …

Market Power Versus Regulation Forces: The Impact Of Antitrust Regulation On Software Firms, Gwona Ko, Boreum Choi, Wooje Cho, Young Bong Chang

Does Your Company Care About The Fears Of Pandemic For Salespeople? Insights From Pandemic Demands And Resources, Ihsan Ullah Jan, Seonggoo Ji, Changju Kim

Asia Marketing Journal

The pandemics (e.g., COVID-19) disrupt the roles of all professionals, particularly those of salespeople. This study seeks to empirically examine how fears amidst the pandemic, as pandemic demands, influence salespeople's attitudinal and behavioral outcomes and how organizational and personal resources as pandemic resources mitigate the negative outcomes for salespeople. Building on the job demands-resources (JD-R) model and employing the partial least squares-based structural equation modeling, this study tested the proposed hypotheses using responses from 237 salespeople in South Korea. The results mainly supported hypotheses. As a major theoretical contribution, this study delineates Pandemic fears in terms of salespeople's fear of …

An Interprofessional Simulation To Address Health Misinformation And Vaccine Hesitancy, Sara W. Nelson, Leah Mallory, Shelly Cohen Konrad, Emily K. Dornblaser, Stephanie D. Nichols, Jennifer Hayman

Journal of Maine Medical Center

Introduction: The complexity of contemporary health care delivery underscores the need for future health care professionals to be adept at working in interprofessional teams and effectively managing the growing issue of medical misinformation. However, current health curricula often lack content on misinformation and have few, if any, opportunities for students to practice addressing misinformation with patients and colleagues.

Methods: To address this gap, our cross-institutional team developed a novel interprofessional simulation exercise and accompanying prework toolkit designed to develop communication skills for managing difficult conversations about COVID-19 misinformation. Ten third-year medical and 10 third-year pharmacy students piloted the toolkit and …
