인지욕구에 따른 희소성 메시지가 여행상품 구매의도에 미치는 영향 : 시간한정 및 인원한정 가격할인을 중심으로

This study aimed to examine how scarcity messages influence travel product purchase intentions and how the impacts were moderated by consumers' high or low need for cognition. The two types of scarcity messages were presented, one with time-limited price discounts and the other with limited-person price discounts. The results of the experiment were as follows. First, the low need for cognition group showed higher purchase intentions when the time-limited scarcity message featured a longer time limit, whereas the high need for cognition group showed higher purchase intentions when the time-limited scarcity message suggested a shorter time limit. Second, the group with a low need for cognition showed higher purchase intentions when limited-person scarcity messages featured a small number of eligible people, whereas the group with a high need for cognition showed higher purchase intentions when limited-person messages suggested a large number of eligible people. Third, the purchase intentions of the low need for cognition group were higher when limited-person scarcity messages were present than limited-time scarcity messages, whereas the high need for cognition group was more reactive to limited-time scarcity messages than limited-person scarcity messages. Furthermore, the interaction effect between the need for cognition and scarcity messages was significant. These experimental results may provide strategic implications for sales promotion activities, specifically in regard to the types of scarcity messages that travel and tourism service companies should utilize to strengthen purchase intentions.

Blockchain for sustainable consumption: an affordance and consumer value-based view

PurposeThere is little empirical evidence on how blockchain affordances may encourage consumers to make sustainable choices. Thus, this paper examines how blockchain affordances affect consumers’ sustainable consumption.Design/methodology/approachWe focus on three blockchain affordances: transparency, traceability, and immutability in this paper. By integrating the affordance lens and theory of consumption values (TCV), we develop a research model wherein we posit that blockchain affordances influence several consumption values, which then affect consumers’ intention to purchase sustainable products. In the study, we designed a scenario and user interface for a novel blockchain-based app for sustainable consumption in the context of the fashion industry and surveyed 295 European consumers to examine the study’s research model. We then analyzed the collected data using the partial least squares technique.FindingsThe results show that blockchain affordances positively affect consumption values, including efficiency, social impression, trust, and sustainability information clarity. In turn, these values influence the consumers’ purchase intention of sustainable products. Additionally, our post hoc analysis shows that these consumption values fully mediate the effect of blockchain affordances on consumers’ purchase intention, where trust and sustainability information clarity is found to have a higher impact.Originality/valueEmpirical research studies focusing on understanding blockchain’s effect on sustainable consumption values have been limited in prior literature. This study, drawing on the affordance lens, proposes distinct blockchain affordances and empirically validates their impact on consumers’ sustainable purchase intention. By integrating TCV, it highlights the mediating mechanism that drives blockchain’s impact on consumers’ purchase intention. We empirically identify the values that mediate the effects of blockchain affordances on consumers’ purchase intention; further, we discuss implications for research and practice based on the study findings.

Miracle in the evening: Explaining the boundary condition of consumer's self-control on purchase intention of near-expired products

Due to consumers' misunderstanding of product expiration dates, huge amounts of food waste and retail losses have been recognized as a worldwide problem. This research explores a solution to mitigate such waste and losses in the consumer purchase decision-making process of near-expiry products. Drawing from the literature on expiration date-based pricing (EDBP) and self-control, we propose that consumers' purchase intention for near-expiry products vary depending on the time of day (morning vs. evening). The results from mixed methodologies, including an analysis of actual sales data from an online retailer (Study 1) and randomized controlled experimental studies (Studies 2 and 3), reveal that consumers are less sensitive to near-expiry products when purchasing EDBP products in the evening compared to the morning. Furthermore, we examine how self-control mediates the interaction effects of the nearness of the expiration date and the time of day on the purchase intention of near-expiry EDBP products. A novel perspective on understanding consumers’ dynamic evaluations of sales promotions over time and managerial implications for promotional strategies to promote products approaching their expiration date are discussed.

Understanding the role of social media influencers’ personal and content characteristics in affecting consumers’ intentions to purchase

ABSTRACT This study attempts to determine factors influencing consumers’ purchase intentions for products endorsed by social media influencers (SMIs) using the theory of planned behaviour as the base theory. Specifically, it aims to examine how SMIs’ personal and content characteristics impact consumers’ attitudes towards purchasing these endorsed products. A total of 217 data were collected from social media users by means of a survey method. Partial least square structural equation modelling is employed to verify the proposed hypotheses. The study shows that attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control have a significant positive influence on purchase intentions. Furthermore, trustworthiness, creativity, and design quality have a significant influence on attitudes. However, attractiveness, expertise, and information quality have no significant influence on attitudes. This is one of the very few studies to examine consumers’ purchase intentions from two different perspectives based on SMIs’ personal and content characteristics integrating the theory of planned behaviour.

Mukbang Live Streaming Commerce and Green Agri-Food Products Consumption: Exploring the New Dynamics of Consumer Purchasing Decisions

China’s live streaming boom has led to mukbang live streaming as a unique food marketing tool. Hosts interact with viewers by tasting and showcasing diverse cuisines in real time. This form of mukbang live streaming has recently been utilized to promote and sell green agri-food products. However, in-depth research into how mukbang live streaming affects the purchase intention for green agri-food products and the underlying mechanisms remains scant. We developed a theoretical model based on stimuli–organism–response theory to explore the impact mechanism. Data was collected via a survey of 455 users from agriculture-related live streaming platforms and analyzed using structural equation modeling with partial least squares. The study found that professional recommendation, audiovisual experience, and social interaction enhance consumers’ perceived utilitarian value; green advocacy, audiovisual experience, and social interaction positively affect consumers’ perceived social value. Both perceived utilitarian value and perceived social value positively affect the intention to purchase green agri-food products. Additionally, we used importance-performance map analysis to compare the model’s effects with latent variable averages, revealing each factor’s importance and performance. The findings offer new insights and recommendations for agri-food marketing strategies, particularly in enhancing consumer behaviors towards green agri-food products, aiding suppliers and mukbang live streaming platforms in more effectively promoting these products.

The Influence of Advertising Strategies on Purchase Intention of Beauty Products on RED

With the popularity of social media platforms in China, research on social media advertising is increasing. Prior research has shown that the value perception given to consumers by social media advertising affects the purchase intention of consumers. However, its internal logic and behavioral mechanism have not been well investigated. In view of this, this research is designed to examine the direct effects of interactivity and aesthetic appeal of beauty product advertisements on perceived advertising value on RED and to explore the influence of perceived advertising value on consumers’ purchase intentions. Based on questionnaire analysis, bivariate regression analysis, and univariate regression analysis, we found the significant influence of interactivity and aesthetic appeal on advertising value as well as the influence of advertising value on consumers’ purchase intention. The chain behavior generation mechanism of consumers’ purchase decisions was also elaborated. This paper provides enlightenment for theoretical research, especially in enriching the SOR model. Also, the result has practical implications for enterprise practice, pointing out important directions for enterprises to design their advertisements.

Red dog, blue dog: the influence of political identity on owner–pet relationships and owners’ purchases of pet-related products and services

Purpose Pets reflect the identity and moral values of their owners. The purpose of this study is to examine how pet owners’ political identity (liberal–conservative) influences the relationship they forge with their pets as well as their purchase behaviors of pet-related products and services. Design/methodology/approach This study conducted two surveys of pet owners with different political identities and measured both their relationship with their pets and their purchase intentions of medical-related products and services as well as luxury accessories. Two secondary data sources were used to provide additional support. Findings This study shows that, on one hand, pet owners anthropomorphize their pets as if they were human equals. On the other hand, they consider themselves masters and emphasize control. The former aligns with the individualizing values endorsed by liberals, while the latter aligns with conservatives’ binding values. Reflecting their different values and owner-pet relationship characteristics, liberals and conservatives exhibit different purchase patterns. Liberals are more likely to buy medical-related products and services, while conservatives are more likely to buy branded luxury accessories for their pets. Research limitations/implications Both primary studies are survey-based and data are correlational in nature. In addition, the samples are limited to the USA. While research suggests that the liberal-conservative continuum is universal, additional research is needed to generalize the findings to other countries. Practical implications Understanding the owner-dog relationship in the context of political identity and the effect of these relationships on dog owners' purchases offer interesting managerial implications in terms of product offerings, retail assortment decisions of related products and pet product branding. Originality/value While dog ownership and related purchases are on the rise, research on owner-pet relationships is scant. This study provides theoretical contributions and implications by going beyond general relationship closeness and bringing in the role of owners’ (political) identity.
