Effects of Corporate Social Responsibility perception on consumer satisfaction with the brand
2016
Abstract Using two different studies we assess under what conditions Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) affects consumer satisfaction. In the first study, based on the American Customer Satisfaction Index, and a content analysis of CSR initiatives reported by 65 US companies, findings show a positive direct relationship between CSR and customer satisfaction with CSR training and environmental initiatives, but a negative direct relationship between CSR corporate communication initiatives and customer satisfaction. The second study, through an empirical study based on an online survey of consumers, points to a positive relationship between CSR and customer satisfaction. Our findings sugges…
Demonstration of P29, an oestrogen receptor-associated tumor marker, in human term placenta.
1991
A Mr29,000 serine phosphoprotein (P29) related to oestradiol receptor was studied in human term placenta with the use of a specific monoclonal antibody (D5). D5 was used with two different methods, immunohistochemistry and immunoradiometry. For immunohistochemistry, an indirect immunoperoxidase method was chosen to detect P29 in methacarn-fixed, wax-embedded sections. P29 was mostly confined to the syncytiotrophoblast surrounding placental villi, staining being positive in both cytoplasm and nuclei. The stroma of villi was negative. Content of P29 was uniformly high in crude placental cytosol, as measured by immunoradiometry assays. Specificity of D5 against P29 in placenta was tested by an…
Efeitos da Responsabilidade Social Corporativa na lealdade do consumidor com a marca
2019
Purpose – This paper analyses the influence of CSR associations on brand loyalty. We propose a theoretical model that includes the mediating role of brand awareness, brand attitude and customer satisfaction in the effect of CSR on loyalty, measured as a second-order reflective construct. Design/methodology/approach – We propose a theoretical model estimated via the analysis of covariance structures using EQS 6.1. Data were obtained using an online survey of 351 Spanish sportswear consumers. Findings – This study illustrates that CSR associations have a direct, positive influence on loyalty, and an indirect influence through their positive effect on brand awareness and consumer satisfaction.…
P29, an oestrogen receptor-associated protein, is down- regulated by mifepristone in first trimester human placenta and decidua
1991
P29 is an oestrogen receptor-associated protein which acts as a marker of oestrogen action in several systems. The concentration of P29 was measured in placenta and decidua from women following medical termination of pregnancy with the antiprogesterone steroid mifepristone (RU 38,486) and a prostaglandin E1 analogue, and compared with the concentration of P29 found in matched controls undergoing surgical aspiration of pregnancy. Oestrogen receptors were also measured in the same samples. Placental and decidual P29 concentrations (IU/mg protein) in patients treated with mifepristone were 9.6 (4.6-54) and 4.8 (1.3-13.3) (median and range), respectively. These values were significantly lower t…
Progesterone increases basal 3',5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate formation and down-regulates the agonist-induced inositol phosphates generation in …
1992
Whether the placenta is a target tissue for estrogens and progesterone, and their putative mechanism of action, is still a controversial question in the literature. The effect of progesterone and estradiol on 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and inositol phosphates generation in human term placenta was investigated. Placental explants were incubated in vitro for up to 48 h in the absence and in the presence of estradiol, progesterone or both steroids (0.1 μmol/l final concentration in all cases), and were stimulated with terbutaline, a β-adrenergic agonist, (0.1 mmol/l) or angiotensin II(1 μmol/l), The cAMP content was measured by a competitive protein binding assay, and the gene…
