This study investigated the effects of negative emotions like Personal Information Concern and Ad Irritation, arising from the growth of Personalized Advertising, on Purchase Intention. It revealed that while Personal Information Concern significantly impacts Ad Irritation and Brand Avoidance, it doesn't affect Ad Avoidance. Ad Irritation influences Ad Avoidance but not Brand Avoidance or Purchase Intention. Both Ad Avoidance and Brand Avoidance negatively impact Purchase Intention. The study also found that Ad Irritation mediates the relationship between Personal Information Concern and Ad Avoidance, but not between Personal Information Concern and Brand Avoidance. Furthermore, Ad Avoidance mediates between Ad Irritation and Purchase Intention, unlike Brand Avoidance. These outcomes highlight the need for further research, particularly considering the MZ Generation's traits.

This study examines the dimensions of brand experience and brand commitment within mass cosmetic brand stores that target female high school students and analyzes the effect of multi-dimension brand experience and brand commitment on brand loyalty. A model linking brand experience to brand commitment and loyalty was tested, using structural equation modeling analysis. A total of 175 female high school students completed the online questionnaire. The current study extended the understandings of the construct of brand commitment by adopting a broadened five-component consumer commitment. The results confirmed that developing brand experience in domestic mass cosmetics brand stores influences consumer loyalty through various types of brand commitment. This study can be beneficial for brand managers by providing guidelines on how to establish consumer loyalty affected by brand experience through brand commitment. Especially, brand managers should consider the negative impacts of forced commitment on consumer loyalty despite brand experience within the stores not influencing teenage consumers' forced commitment toward mass cosmetic brands. The importance of habitual commitment in the relationship between brand experience and loyalty was also revealed. The results can provide a realistic blueprint for consumer brand experience and commitment strategy.
