The Coding Manual for Qualitative Researchers

The author systematically examines one of the important issues of information — establishing the market price. He introduces the concept of «search» — where a buyer wanting to get a better price, is forced to question sellers. The article deals with various aspects of finding the necessary information.

E-S-QUAL: A Multiple-Item Scale for Assessing Electronic Service Quality

The authors present the first comprehensive, multidisciplinary review of consumer rebates that includes federal regulations, state laws, and academic research. They discuss four topics that have been the foci of consumer concerns and policy reform: rebate advertising, rebate redemption disclosures, rebate redemption processes, and rebate payment processes. With respect to each of these four topics, the authors identify federal guidelines for rebates by reviewing the 18 Federal Trade Commision rebate-related complaints and the 18 associated consent decrees. Furthermore, they discuss 15 rebate laws from 11 U.S. states, 7 of which were enacted since 2007. In addition, they review academic research related to rebates from diverse literatures including marketing, consumer behavior, psychology, and economics and identify research gaps. This information should help policy makers evaluate rebate policies to assess whether the policies are evidence based, and it should help academics identify unanswered research q...

HANDBOOK OF MIXED METHODS IN SOCIAL & BEHAVIORAL RESEARCH (Book)

This article explores the important role of liking in the development of the buyer’s trust in the sales rep. The authors argue that liking’s role is richer and qualitatively different from that of the more cognitive antecedents of trust. They posit that many cognitive antecedents of trust operate mainly through liking. They argue that as the buyer-sales rep relationship matures, liking plays an even more important role in influencing trust. The authors empirically test a model delineating the mediating role of liking in developing trust. They find that when the relationship between the buyer and the sales rep is young, liking partially mediates the effect of similarity of business values and fully mediates the influence of frequency of personal interaction on trust. Moreover, as the buyer’s relationship with the rep ages, liking takes the foreground in trust development, while more cognitive antecedents recede into the background.
