Most of the existing studies on the volume and valence of the eWOM (electronic word of mouth) about movies and box-office revenues were conducted using online actual data (secondary data) at Yahoo Movies, IMDB.com, Naver Movies, etc. However, it is difficult to grasp psychological variables from online actual data. Therefore, existing studies using online actual data could not identify the causal relationship among volume, valence and psychological variables. This study fills this gap in the literature. This study aims to examine the direct and indirect effects (i.e. mediating effect) of the volume and valence of online reviews about movies on purchase intention through review credibility as a mediator. We conducted a survey on the South Korean consumers and a structural equation modeling. The outcomes show that the total effects of both volume and valence are significant. In addition, volume has an indirect effect only (i.e. full mediating effect) on purchase intention through review credibility, but valence has both direct and indirect effects (i.e. partial mediating effect) on purchase intention through review credibility. The theoretical and practical implications for these results are presented.

The present study aimed to investigate the relationships among consumers' personality trait, brand tribalism, and brand commitment through brand trust and perceived switching cost. Data were collected from a convenience sample of three-hundred and ninety-four undergraduate students at a large Korean university. The participants consisted of 54.1% female (N = 213) and 45.9% male (N = 181). The results indicated that extraversion, conscientiousness, and emotional stability traits are directly related to brand tribalism. Also, brand commitment was directly associated with brand tribalism, brand trust, and perceived switching cost. In particular, our results showed the relationship between brand tribalism and brand commitment was mediated by brand trust, but not perceived switching cost. Therefore, our findings suggest that strong emotional connection of brand tribes may increase perceived switching costs and, consequently, affect brand commitment.

Total 274 sport instructors participated in this study. The data were analyzed by structural equation modeling, and the results of this study were as follows: First, distributive justice had a negative effect on psychological resistance, while distributive justice had no significant effect on behavioral resistance. Second, procedural justice had a negative effect on psychological resistance and behavioral resistance. Third, both distributive justice and procedural justice had a positive effect on organizational trust. Fourth, organizational trust had a negative effect on psychological resistance and behavioral resistance. Fifth, organizational trust had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between distributive justice and psychological resistance and a full mediating effect on the relationship between distributive justice and behavioral resistance. Also, organizational trust had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between procedural justice and innovation resistance.

This study was intended to examine the mediating roles of trust in CEO and supervisor on the relationships between organizational justice and employee behaviors. Data were collected from 4,055 employees across 18 different companies in Korea. Employees were asked to answer on a self-reported questionnaire. The two dimensions of organizational justice (i.e. procedural justice and distributive justice) were used. Employee behaviors were measured using counter-productive behavior and organizational citizenship behavior. Data were analyzed using a structural equation model. The hypothesized fully mediated model better fitted the data. Relative to distributive justice, procedural justice was more strongly related to both trust in CEO and trust in supervisor. But there were no significant differences in the degree of relationships between the two dimensions of trust and the two types of employee behaviors. These results showed that procedural justice is more important in enhancing trust in leader.

The purpose of this study was to investigate how the characteristics of mobile-based financial platforms have an impact on the intention to use loan service users. In addition, it was attempted to investigate whether usefulness and ease of use had a mediating effect in the relationship between each characteristic of the mobile financial platform on the intention to use the loan service. Data collection was conducted from March 1 to April 30, 2022, and 200 people participated in the study. Analysis methods were frequency analysis, exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, correlation analysis, hierarchical multiple regression analysis, and three-step mediation regression analysis. The research results are as follows. First, the influence of user factors, technical factors, and environmental factors of a financial platform on the intention to use a mobile loan service was found to be ubiquity in user factors, reliability in technical factors, and facilitation conditions in environmental factors. Second, in the relationship between convenience and intention to use user factors, usefulness had a completely mediating effect. Third, in the relationship between reliability of technical factors and intention to use, usefulness showed a partial mediating effect. Fourth, in the relationship between the social impact of environmental factors and facilitation conditions and intention to use, the usefulness showed a partial mediating effect. Fifth, ease of use showed a completely mediating effect in the relationship between convenience and intention of use of user factors. Sixth, in the relationship between reliability of technical factors and intention to use, ease of use showed a partial mediating effect. Seventh, in the relationship between the social impact of environmental factors and intention to use, ease of use showed a partial mediating effect, and in the relationship between facilitation conditions and intention to use, ease of use showed a fully mediating effect. Through this study, we tried to present basic data on the determinants of the user's acceptable intention to use the mobile loan service.
