General retail patronage loyalty as a determinant of consumer outshopping behavior

Consumer outshopping research has shown there are significant, but weak, relationships between consumers' attitudes toward local retailers and the degree to which they shop in local versus outlying areas. An alternative attitude measurement, retail patronage loyalty, is proposed and empirically evaluated. The loyalty scale was shown to be a stronger and more generalizable predictor of consumer outshopping behavior.     

Perceived risk and the selection of a retail patronage mode

Consumers can select products from a wide variety of retail patronage alternatives. This article examines the amount of perceived risk that is associated with shopping at six different patronage modes. Department and specialty stores are generally considered low risk modes, while media advertisements represent the highest risk alternative. This research also examines the importance of various risk-handling tactics that may help the consumer deal with the perceived risk involved with the selection of a particular retail patronage mode.     

The impact of social influence and role expectations on shopping center patronage intentions

Shopping is generally a socially visible behavior, frequently done while accompanied by friends or family. The importance of the social interaction achieved through shopping would suggest that social referents may affect the patronage behavior of consumers. However, the ability of social referents to influence patronage may depend on how important the role of shopper is to the individual. Historically, females were expected to assume the role of shopper. But there is evidence that currently the role of shopper has increased in importance for males while decreasing for females who do not occupy the role of housewives. This study used a behavioral intentions modeling approach to investigate the strength and significance of social referent influence on three shopper segments with differing types of role expectations. The shopping orientations and retail feature preferences of the three segments were also measured. The findings suggest there are important differences among the three groups.

The impact of a specialty retail center on downtown shopping behavior

This article describes a three year longitudinal study of the impact of the opening of a specialty retail center on shopping, dining-out, and entertainment behavior of a random sample of residents of a major metropolitan area. The results show a dramatic increase in the percentage of residents who visited the specialty center for dining-out and entertainment with a residual effect of increased visits to surrounding cultural and entertainment facilities.

Marketing at the retail shelf: an examination of moderating effects of logistics on SKU market share

Given that the impact of retail shelf facings and price on a product’s market share is of substantial interest to marketing managers in the retail supply chain, we examine whether these relationships may be interdependent with the firm’s supply chain activities. We offer predictions regarding the interdependence of the marketing and supply chain variables using monthly in-store observations from 62 different retail stores from five different chains, taken over a 24-month period. The in-store observations included price and number of facings, which is combined with data obtained from the manufacturer on case pack quantity and market share data from the ACNielsen HomeScan consumer scanner panel. Results indicate that shelf facings impact the effects of price and case pack quantity on market share. In addition, we explore the strength of relationships across retailers employing everyday low price versus HiLo pricing strategies. Generally, our findings suggest that retailers and suppliers must work to integrate marketing activities and supply chain processes both within and across firms to most effectively serve the consumer at the retail shelf and increase market share.

政府行为对农民收入影响的分析

改革开放以来,农产品市场化的进程在逐渐加快,政府对农业的直接干预与改革前相比明显降低,但在所有影响农业发展、农民收入提高的诸因素中,作为政府行为主要体现的各类相关政策仍然居于核心位置.因此,要解决我国农民增收难题,应首先从政府行为的选择和演变中寻求有效对策.     

Distance and number of retail stores: Land area as a proxy for distance

This article examines the relationship between distance and the number of retail stores in SMSA's and states by using land area as a proxy for distance between stores and consumers. Correlation analysis showed no statistically significant relationship between land area and the number of stores. This lack of relationship is attributed to the inadequacy of the land area variable as a proxy for distance. Consequently, actual measures of distance are needed to appraise the relationship between distance and numbers of retail stores.

The copycat CMO: firms’ imitative behavior as an explanation for CMO presence

The present study adds to the CMO literature the perspective of firms’ imitative behavior on why firms have CMOs in their TMT. We propose that a firm’s decision to have a CMO on its TMT is driven not only by contingency-reated considerations but also by social ones, as the decision is significantly influenced by industry peers. Empirical findings based on 505 large US firms from 2000 to 2012 indicate that firms’ imitative behavior is a significant driver of CMO presence, especially when firm uncertainty is strong and inference uncertainty is low. Post hoc analyses indicate that this imitation behavior tends to be performance neutral at best.     

Building an innovation base: exploring the role of acquisition behavior

Innovation serves as a foundation for sustainable competitive advantage. Therefore, it is no surprise that firms seek to build an innovation base—a reservoir of inventions, ideas, and discoveries that serve as a platform for their innovation efforts. One approach for building an innovation base is acquisitions, though extant research reveals an equivocal verdict on whether acquisitions influence post-acquisition inventions. In this research, the authors focus on type of acquisition, acquisition behavior over time, and invention characteristics to investigate how acquisition behavior influences post-acquisition inventions. Analysis of 352 firms across five industries and 17 years reveals that firms who make acquisitions produce a stronger innovation base than those who make no acquisitions. Moreover, comparing effects across vertical and horizontal acquisitions, results indicate that the acquiring firm’s knowledge breadth plays an important role in determining which type of acquisition behavior generates the strongest influence on a firm’s innovation base.     

一体化政策对旅游业收敛的影响机制研究——以长三角城市经济协调会发布的政策为例

基于2011-2018年的数据,探讨长三角城市经济协调会发布的政策对长三角旅游业收敛的影响机制.β收敛结果显示,长三角旅游业趋于均衡发展,且呈现出"自我强化效应",江苏省旅游业发展差距的缩小是长三角旅游业收敛的主要动因.非线性时变因子logt检验揭示了长三角旅游业俱乐部收敛的特征,沪苏浙旅游强市位于较高层级的收敛俱乐部,而安徽省大部分城市位于收敛俱乐部底层.空间计量检验结果说明,长三角旅游业具有显著的正向空间关联,一体化政策对长三角旅游业差距的缩小产生了持续的推动作用.基于中介效应的影响机制检验表明,一体化政策能够通过提升政府行政效率、优化公共资源再配置、提高市场潜力等途径促进长三角旅游业收敛,且政策效果伴随城市规模的扩大而增强.而现阶段安徽省旅游业发展落入了"政策陷阱",旅游业发展的省际差距阻碍了长三角旅游业收敛进程.

关于社区矫正问题的实践研究——以石家庄市为例

社区矫正制度是西方国家一种新型的刑罚执行措施,它体现了刑罚执行制度由严趋宽的国际趋势.在促进罪犯重返社会、避免罪犯交叉感染和合理配置行刑资源等方面有着重要意义.我国自2003年开展社区矫正试点后,2005年1月河北省作为第二批试点省份,开展了社区矫正试点工作.以石家庄市为例,通过对社区矫正工作开展现状进行调查和研究,发现还存在以下几方面的问题:社区矫正工作法律制度和经费保障制度的缺失、执法主体不明确、各部门工作衔接不畅等.针对所存的问题,提出了以下几点建议:完善制度体系,提供法律保障；改革机构建制,明确执法主体；健全矫正工作队伍,提高矫正工作人员综合素质；加大社区矫正宣传力度,提高社区群众认同度.
