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…
How emotional response mediates servicescape impact on post consumption outcomes: An application to opera events
2020
Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine how emotions mediate the impact of a holistic servicescape -physical and social- on post-consumption outcomes in the performing arts. Partial Least Square (PLS) was conducted to test the mediation hypothesized relationships on a sample of 867 opera goers. The proposed research model was largely supported by the evidence, and the mediating role of emotions was confirmed. Servicescape influences direct and indirectly attendees' post consumption in opera given that emotions play a partial mediating role which is greater in the case of positive emotions. Based on the results, this study offers specific theoretical and managerial implications conc…

Changes in Brand-Related Consumer Loyalty in the Current Pandemic Context
2021
Abstract The current medical crisis and, implicitly, the economic one, generated by the Covid-19 pandemic have brought increased attention to the issue of brand-related consumer loyalty, as loyal consumers are the safest and most stable source of profit in the current economic and social context. It is well-known that there is no equality between the notions of consumer satisfaction and loyalty. The two notions are not synonymous, as consumer satisfaction is only a relative, but not sufficient condition to obtain consumer loyalty. This paper aims to take a systemic approach in discussing the issue of brand-related consumer loyalty, starting from the inputs, respectively the favorable factor…
Comportamiento del consumidor en la co-creación de valor y su relación con la satisfacción en el entorno universitario: una aplicación a la Universid…
2016
Aportes académicos señalan que el consumidor es el actor más importante en la co-creación de valor, pero pocos estudios se han centrado en descubrir y comprobar la influencia de los compor- tamientos del consumidor que co-crea valor en su satisfacción. En consecuencia, en este artículo se contrasta esta relación en el contexto universitario, para lo cual se plantea un modelo relacional con las variables: comportamiento del consumidor en la co-creación de valor y satisfacción. Dicho modelo se aplicó a una muestra representativa de estudiantes de una universidad colombiana. Los resultados evidencian algunas relaciones positivas. La contribución teórica del estudio radica en que esta es la pri…
Effect of price increases on future intentions of sport consumers
2014
This work analyzes the relationships between perceived value, satisfaction and future intentions among users of a public sport service who experience a price increase in the service they receive. A self-administered survey provides data from two samples (before and after the service price increase). After confirming the reliability and validity of the measures, hierarchical multiple regression provides the means for analyzing the data. The results show that the increase in the service price worsens the perception of service performance. As expected, satisfaction, perceived value and future intentions decrease following an increase in the service price. Perceived value also serves as a more …
