The New In-Store Consumer: Digital, Engagement, Innovativeness Impact On Unplanned Grocery Shopping And Spending Behavior, Dale A. Cake, Vikas Agrawal, Doug Johansen

Journal of Applied Marketing Theory

Digital technologies are having a profound effect on the grocery retail environment worldwide. Marketers have been intrigued by potential for digital technologies to influence consumers at the point of purchase, yet little is known about how digital technologies impact consumer purchasing decisions. An exploratory PLS-SEM model is used to analyze U. S. panel data and the effect of in-store digital use, consumer innovativeness and engagement on unplanned grocery shopping behavior and spending. This study finds that consumer engagement, rather than in-store digital use, is found to be the key variable when it comes to predicting unplanned shopping and spending. Findings …

Motivations To Engage In Word Of Mouth From Non-Market Participants: A Study Using Automotive Business As The Field Of Investigation, Yao Han Kwan

Dissertations and Theses Collection (Open Access)

Word of mouth (WOM) can have significant impacts on businesses. Positive WOM can go a long way in helping to grow a brand while negative WOM may cause considerable damages. Managers have constantly attempted to actively manage WOM but often find it difficult to control. Extensive academic research has also been conducted in this field, with a significant amount of literature built up over the last few decades. The advent of the Internet, social media and consequently electronic WOM (eWOM) further intensified practice and research interest in this area.

Despite decades of research and managerial precepts about WOM, the full …

The Relationship Between Consumer Sentiment Towards Advertising And Ad Credibility, Ad Likeability, And Attention To Ads: The Case With Visual Metaphors, Vivek Madupu, Sampathkumar Ranganathan, Sandipan Sen

Journal of Applied Marketing Theory

Popularity of ads with visual metaphors are on the rise. The present study examined the relationship between consumer sentiment towards advertising and ad credibility, ad likeability, and attention towards ads when ads contain visual metaphors. Specifically, this study tested ads which are “A is like B’” (comparison for similarity) and replacement type (only either source or the target is present while the other is absent) metaphors. Sixty-four students from a regional university in the mid-west completed surveys. Our study results indicate that when sentiment towards advertising is high, consumers find ads more credible and pay more attention to ads. However, …

Understanding Differences In The Dimensions Of Brand Loyalty Among Generational Cohorts In The Carbonated Beverage Category, Neleen S. Leslie-Piper, Petula Senior

Journal of Applied Marketing Theory

This study explores generational differences in the antecedents of brand loyalty in the carbonated beverage category. Eight loyalty dimensions were examined across three generational cohorts: Millennials, Generation X and Baby Boomers. Results indicate partial support for the study hypothesis. Significant generational differences were only observed for some loyalty dimensions and in most of those cases, Baby Boomers recorded significantly higher scores than Millennials but were not significantly different than other groups. There were also very few differences between Millennials and Generation X.

When Humor Hurts: The Detrimental Effect Of Humor On Brand Attitudes After A Brand Transgression, Lama Lteif

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

A set of six studies, including a quasi-field study and a field study, show that the use of humor reduces brand trust after a transgression, which in turn, reduces brand attitudes.

Investors' Evaluations Of Price-Increase Preannouncements, Leon Gim Lim, Kapil R. Tuli, Marnik G. Dekimpe

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

Several firms preannounce their price increases with the expectation that such announcements will be evaluated favorably by investors. However, little is known about the actual effect they have on shareholder value. Accordingly, the authors present the first systematic empirical examination of investors' evaluations of 274 price-increase preannouncements (PIPs). Results show that whereas the average increase in abnormal returns following a PIP is 0.51%, almost 41% of the PIPs result in negative abnormal returns. To explore this heterogeneity, the authors propose a conceptual framework that focuses on three key pieces of information that investors can use when evaluating a PIP: information …
