Overview of Research: Product availability is one of important competences of store to fulfill consumer needs. If stock-outs which means a product what consumer wants to buy is not available occurs, consumer will face decision-making uncertainty that leads to consumer's negative responses such as consumer dissatisfaction on store. Stockouts was much studied in the field of academia as well as practice in other countries. However, stock-outs has not been researched at all in Marketing and/or Distribution area in Korea. The main objectives of this study are to find out determinants of consumer responses such as Substitute, Delay, and Leave(SDL) when consumer encounters out-of-stock situation and then to examine the effects of these factors on consumer responses. Specifically, this study focuses on situational characteristics(e.g., purchase urgency and surprise), store characteristics (e.g., product assortment and store convenience), and consumer characteristics (e.g., brand loyalty and store loyalty). Then, this study empirically investigates relationships these factors with consumers behaviors such as product substitution, purchase delay, and store switching.
The purpose of this study is to clarify the concept and construct of the problem recognition stage in consumer decision making process of apparel Purchase. This study was supplemented by the theoretical study and field interviews. 40 women were interviewed on their apparel purchase situation to identify problem recognition process. As a result, the concept of problem recognition in apparel purchase is the perceived difference between the ideal state of apparel affairs and the actual situation sufficient to arouse and activate the decision making process. And the problem recognition stage in apparel purchase is constituted of the following steps: gestation, categorization, problem definition, and purchase intention formation. In most cases, these four steps existed, but in some cases several steps were deleted or condensed.
An overflow of information leads consumers to be easily distracted and to neglect the information being provided to them. E-tailers have to select types of information sources and provide their consumers with the most appropriate information. This study was done to specifically contribute to the research in proposing strategies of providing information of the Internet merchant to the e-shoppers through the analysis of relationships among the online purchase motives of consumers, the use of information sources, and decision making styles. This research categorizes the use of information sources into information sources concerning online stores and information sources concerning products. The uses of information sources relative to online stores are classified into the neutral, human, and marketer-oriented sources. The uses of information sources concerning the products are classified into the online and offline source. This study provides important suggestions for e-tailers to provide information about stores as well as products to the consumers with adaptable strategies.
This comparative study conducted to examine the differences between Korean and Chinese consumers. The specific goals of the study were as follows; First, It was to investigate the influences of COO(Country of Origin) image on the customer…s buying intention through the brand association knowledge. It is also aimed at analyzing the moderating effects of consumer's ethnocentrism on the influence of brand association knowledge on the buying intention. To test the hypotheses, 117 questionnaires were collected from university students in Korea and 119 questionnaires did from China and put to the test with SPSS 17.0 and AMOS 7.0. The results indicated the followings: For consumers in both countries, the COO image had not influences on the buying intention. For Korean consumers the COO image had positive impacts on the brand association knowledge, which in turn had positive impacts on the buying intention. For Chinese consumer, COO image did not have influences on the brand association knowledge, but the brand association knowledge had positive impact on the buying intention. In addition, the consumer's ethnocentrism had moderating effects on the influences of the brand association knowledge on the buying intention.
Background music is presented simultaneously with target messages. The main content should be kept intact for some time to aid decision making process. The maintenance of this information requires auditory working memory. The temporal compression of background music may often adopted due to the limitation of the presentation time. In this study, auditory working memory and decision making proces were analyzed in terms of temporal compression ratios of the background music. A total of 37 subjects of early twenties joined the study. Selected products were categorized based on eigen values of multi-dimensional scaling. Four presentation conditions were cases with no background music, background music with no compression, background music with low compression, and background music high compression. Matched reponses were analyzed through repeated ANOVA. Results showed that the high involvement product required more working memory resources. However, the increased level of usage did not always lead to the corresponding changes in decision making process. This approach may be useful in analyzing the role of time compression and working memory in consumer behaviors.
The development of e-commerce made a great effect on all the aspect of marketing mix.

As electronic commerce establishes itself as a viable and competitive channel, this research compares the attractiveness of online and offline purchase from a transaction cost perspective. In the process, we propose a framework that integrates transaction cost with purchase decision process and product type. Specifically, the paper proposes and tests hypotheses regarding the difference between online and offline channels with respect to the transaction costs incurred in each stage of the purchase decision process. These differences are further compared across different product types categorized according to the FCB Grid. A total of 24 hypotheses were tested by conducting a questionnaire survey on university students. The results showed that 19 out of 24 hypotheses were supported. Following a detailed presentation of the analysis results, the paper concludes by discussing the academic and managerial implications of the findings.
With the widespread adoption of mobile devices, such as smart phones and smart pads, as well as the rapid growth of mobile technologies, consumer shopping patterns are changing. This study investigates key factors of consumer purchasing intention in a mobile shopping mall context by incorporating trust belief into the theory of planned behavior. We posit perceived usefulness, perceived enjoyment, perceived ease of use, and trust belief as antecedents of behavioral attitude toward mobile shopping malls. Moreover, social influence and security are identified as key enablers of trust belief on mobile shopping malls. Data collected from 154 consumers with purchasing experience in mobile shopping malls are empirically tested against a research model using partial least squares. Analysis results show that behavioral attitude and perceived behavioral control significantly influence purchasing intention. Moreover, this study reveals the significant effects of perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment on behavioral attitude. Trust belief indirectly influences purchasing intention through behavioral attitude and is significantly affected by social influence. Understanding consumer purchasing decision-making processes in mobile shopping malls can help service providers to develop effective marketing and operation strategies and campaigns.
shows the research model of this study. To accomplish above-mentioned research objectives, the following ten hypotheses were proposed and verified : is the estimation results of l\1NL model, and
shows the marginal effects for each determinant to consumer's responses(SDL). Significant statistical results were as follows. Purchase urgency, purchase quantities, pre-purchase plan, product assortment, store price image, brand loyalty, and store loyalty were turned out to be significant determinants to influence consumer alternative behaviors in case of out-of-stock situation.
