E-Commerce Shopping Motivation and the Influence of Persuasive Strategies.

Persuasive strategies are used to influence the behavior or attitude of people without coercion and are commonly used in online systems such as e-commerce systems. However, in order to make persuasive strategies more effective, research suggests that they should be tailored to groups of similar individuals. Research in the traits that are effective in tailoring or personalizing persuasive strategies is an ongoing research area. In the present study, we propose the use of shoppers' online shopping motivation in tailoring six commonly used influence strategies: scarcity, authority, consensus, liking, reciprocity, and commitment. We aim to identify how these influence strategies can be tailored or personalized to e-commerce shoppers based on the online consumers' motivation when shopping. To achieve this, a research model was developed using Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) and tested by conducting a study of 226 online shoppers. The result of our structural model suggests that persuasive strategies can influence e-commerce shoppers in various ways depending on the shopping motivation of the shopper. Balanced buyers—the shoppers who typically plan their shopping ahead and are influenced by the desire to search for information online—have the strongest influence on commitment strategy and have insignificant effects on the other strategies. Convenience shoppers—those motivated to shop online because of convenience—have the strongest influence on scarcity, while store-oriented shoppers—those who are motivated by the need for social interaction and immediate possession of goods—have the strongest influence on consensus. Variety seekers—consumers who are motivated to shop online because of the opportunity to search through a variety of products and brands, on the other hand, have the strongest influence on authority.

Determinants of consumer loyalty towards celebrity‐owned restaurants: The mediating role of brand love

AbstractResearch examining consumer behavior towards celebrity‐owned ventures is limited. This study is in the context of celebrity‐owned restaurants. It observes the effect of celebrity endorsement and perceived food quality on brand love, further leading to brand loyalty and e‐WOM. The moderating role of customer experience between celebrity endorsement, perceived food quality, and the dependent variable brand love is also studied. A structured questionnaire was administered to the respondents who had experienced dining at a celebrity‐owned restaurant, and 532 responses were obtained. The results established that a celebrity‐owned restaurant would enjoy a robust consumer–brand relationship owing to its association with the celebrity.

INVESTIGATING INFLUENCERS’ POSTS ON INSTAGRAM: IMPACT OF INFLUENCER EXPERTISE, POST LIKE NUMBER AND CONTENT RICHNESS ON ADVERTISING EFFECTIVENESS

The emergence and explosive growth of social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Tweeter, etc. has dramatically changed both the way consumers shop and brands advertise. According to a study by Track Maven, Instagram is the most engaging social media platform nowadays with the most average interactions per post per 1,000 followers. It stimulates “Instagram influencer marketing” to develop rapidly and promotes a great variety of brands. It has fundamentally changed the balance of power between customers and brands because it allows peer recommendations to play a much larger role in purchasing decisions [13]. It has become one of the trendiest marketing strategies that focus on influential figures on Instagram rather than targeting on the market as a whole. Instagram influencer marketing highlights content creators who may impact their audiences’ buying habits. For example, shoppers who compare hotel reviews can simply search “hashtag plus hotel name (e.g. #hiltonnewyork) in Instagram and read people’s experiences with that hotel among related posts. Many of those posts were created by influencers who are collaborating with the brands to advertise. Based on activities of more than 12 million Instagram influencers between the first quarter of 2018 and the first quarter of 2019, Social bakers created a report to categorize influencers into three categories: micro-influencers who have fewer than 10,000 followers, macro influencers with 10,000 to 50,000 followers, and celebrities who attracts a million or more followers. The majority of Instagram influencers are “micro-influencers”. Their finding also reveals that the combined amount of sponsored content on Instagram for all three categories of influencers in North America has jumped 150% in the last year.

The Potential Use of Car Windscreens for Post-Accident Dose Reconstruction in the Periphery of Nuclear Installations

Cars of a variety of brands are usually parked at a fixed but increasing distance in the periphery of nuclear installations. Herein we focus on the potential use of car windscreens for post-accident dose reconstruction from unplanned nuclear events and natural disasters, also in regard to unexpected events arising during large-scale use of radioactive and nuclear materials. The situation requires identification of analytical techniques that could both readily and reliably be used to assess absorbed dose, sufficient to prompt remedial action where necessary. Samples from three widely used car brands—Honda, Toyota and Proton—are studied in respect of their thermoluminescence (TL) yield. Key TL dosimetric features in the gamma-ray dose range of 1–100 Gy are examined. An ERESCO model 200 MF4-RW X-ray machine has also been used for energy response studies; a Harshaw 3500 TLD reader equipped with WinREMS software was used for the luminescence measurements. All brands exhibit linearity of TL yield versus dose, the samples from Honda showing the greatest response followed by that of the Toyota and Proton brands. The marked energy dependence reflects the effect of the strongly Z-dependent photoelectric effect. Signal fading was investigated over a period of 28 days, the Toyota and Proton brand windshield glass showing a relatively low loss at 52.1% and 52.6% respectively compared to a 56.7% loss for that of the Honda samples. This work forms the first such demonstration of the potential of car windshield glass as a retrospective accident dosimeter.

EFFICIENCY EVALUATION OF FIRE THERMAL IMAGING CAMERAS IN THE FIRE MODULE

The issue of selection and evaluation of fire thermal imaging cameras (TICs) is new for the personnel of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine (SES of Ukraine) units, as in the recent years the units began to receive them and use during firefighting and rescue operations. Among the variety of brands and manufacturers of TICs, it is quite difficult to determine and make the right decision "which one to choose?", especially considering that they are all quite similar in their characteristics and are in the same price range. Moreover, sellers are not mentioned about their weaknesses, and especially do not emphasize what exactly you need to focus on and under what conditions properly they should be used.
 The purpose of the work is to assess the dependence of the effectiveness of fire detection and rescue operations considering the technical parameters and brands of fire thermal imagers. According to the method of estimating the parameters of TICs, which was developed at the Lviv State University of Life Safety, a comparative evaluation of the performance of TICs, which are used by units of SES of Ukraine. TICs of the following brands were selected for research: FLIR K2, 3M SCOTT V206, FLIR K33, 3M SCOTT V320, LEADER TIC3, 3M SCOTT X380 TIC3. According to their tactical and technical characteristics, the presented TICs were divided into three groups, two in each. To obtain a quantitative assessment of the visual quality of the display of the indicators understudy, a four-point rating scale was adopted: 5 - excellent reflection; 4 - good reflection; 3 - mediocre reflection; 2 - unsatisfactory reflection. According to the results of the research and the set amount of points, which took into account all series of experiments, the best result in their groups showed: Group I - 3M SCOTT V206, Group II - FLIR K33, Group III - 3M SCOTT X380. Based on experimental studies, it can be argued that the current parameters (tactical and technical characteristics) that influence the choice of TICs are: the size of the matrix, the refresh rate, temperature range and temperature sensitivity. These parameters are decisive during the reconnaissance of the SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus) units in gassed and smoky environments to solve complex tactical tasks, such as searching for a victim or hidden combustion centre and other tasks for their intended purpose.

Furthermore, the application is tailored for palletizing applications and specifically includes the components (Building Blocks) of a particular company, which allows a very fast development of new solutions. Furthermore, with the inclusion of the Trajectory Planner, it is possible to automatically develop robot trajectories without collisions.

The effect of shared brand use on brand variety seeking in romantic relationships

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to uncover the dimensions of shared brand use as a part of romantic relationships and examine the dynamics among shared brand use, brand preference similarity, brand variety seeking and relationship satisfaction.Design/methodology/approachA total of 1,820 MTurk respondents participated in four online surveys and data were analyzed using structural equation modeling.FindingsThe findings of the study show that shared brand use has five use dimensions: special occasion, mundane, activity, nostalgia and relational identity expression; shared brand use leads to brand preference similarity that elicits increased brand variety seeking as a part of the relationship and relationship satisfaction moderates the effect of brand preference similarity on brand variety seeking.Originality/valueBuilding on extant literature on branding, variety seeking and shared consumption, the authors develop a measure that captures different facets of shared brand use as a part of romantic relationships, move beyond the existing research on variety seeking in the context of experiential purchases to show how romantic relationship partners engage in purposeful brand variety seeking as a part of their romantic relationships and document that relationship satisfaction is an important factor that influences how partners purposefully engage in brand variety seeking.

Advances in accelerometry for cardiovascular patients: a systematic review with practical recommendations.

AimsAccelerometers are becoming increasingly commonplace for assessing physical activity; however, their use in patients with cardiovascular diseases is relatively substandard. We aimed to systematically review the methods used for collecting and processing accelerometer data in cardiology, using the example of heart failure, and to provide practical recommendations on how to improve objective physical activity assessment in patients with cardiovascular diseases by using accelerometers.Methods and resultsFour electronic databases were searched up to September 2019 for observational, interventional, and validation studies using accelerometers to assess physical activity in patients with heart failure. Study and population characteristics, details of accelerometry data collection and processing, and description of physical activity metrics were extracted from the eligible studies and synthesized. To assess the quality and completeness of accelerometer reporting, the studies were scored using 12 items on data collection and processing, such as the placement of accelerometer, days of data collected, and criteria for non‐wear of the accelerometer. In 60 eligible studies with 3500 patients (of those, 536 were heart failure with preserved ejection fraction patients), a wide variety of accelerometer brands (n = 27) and models (n = 46) were used, with Actigraph being the most frequent (n = 12), followed by Fitbit (n = 5). The accelerometer was usually worn on the hip (n = 32), and the most prevalent wear period was 7 days (n = 22). The median wear time required for a valid day was 600 min, and between two and five valid days was required for a patient to be included in the analysis. The most common measures of physical activity were steps (n = 20), activity counts (n = 15), and time spent in moderate‐to‐vigorous physical activity (n = 14). Only three studies validated accelerometers in a heart failure population, showing that their accuracy deteriorates at slower speeds. Studies failed to report between one and six (median 4) of the 12 scored items, with non‐wear time criteria and valid day definition being the most underreported items.ConclusionsThe use of accelerometers in cardiology lacks consistency and reporting on data collection, and processing methods need to be improved. Furthermore, calculating metrics based on raw acceleration and machine learning techniques is lacking, opening the opportunity for future exploration. Therefore, we encourage researchers and clinicians to improve the quality and transparency of data collection and processing by following our proposed practical recommendations for using accelerometers in patients with cardiovascular diseases, which are outlined in the article.

Public Health, Intellectual Property, and the Trade and Investment Law Challenges to Australia and Uruguay’s Tobacco Packaging Laws

The trade and investment disputes brought against Australia's tobacco plain packaging laws and Uruguay's large graphic health warnings and restrictions on tobacco brand variants are key cases on the relationship between public health and intellectual property. Both cases have been decided in favour of the respondent states, and they are important victories not only for tobacco control but for public health flexibilities in intellectual property agreements more broadly. Key points to take from the jurisprudence include: its confirmation that trademarks do not give trademark owners the right to use those trademarks to market harmful products, its clarification of the scope of intellectual property protections under international investment law, and its findings on the status of the Doha Declaration on the TRIPS Agreement and Public Health and on interpreting the WTO Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights coherently with public health more generally.

Modeling Claim Frequency in Indonesia Auto Insurance Using Generalized Poisson-Lindley Linear Model

This paper will discuss the modeling of claim frequency from Indonesian auto insurance using the generalized Poisson-Lindley linear model. This modeling method assumes that the data of claim frequency are from populations that follow generalized Poisson-Lindley distribution. Generalized Poisson-Lindley linear model is an alternative to modeling count data that contains overdispersion. The parameters in the generalized Poisson-Lindley linear model can be estimated using the maximum likelihood estimation method through Newton Raphson's iteration numerical method. The data are the secondary data took from XYZ Company for the 2013 policy which is overdispersed. The data contains policyholder partial loss claims for comprehensive motor vehicle insurance products. From the research conducted it was concluded that the data is suitable to be modeled with generalized Poisson-Lindley linear models and produce better models than ordinary Poisson linear modeling because of produced the smaller AIC value. Of the 3 predictor variables that are modeled on the frequency of claims, 2 variables influenced they are the use variable and vehicle brand variable.
