“…Moreover, Table 3 also gives the values of the multicollinearity test for independent variables (VIF = variance inflation factor). According to Dospinesc and Dospinescu [99], the VIF value should be less than 2.00, indicating that the data are not collinear. The VIF values for each variable were between 1.122 to 1.889, which is lower than the reference value of 5 [100], indicating that the obtained structural model has no negative effects, and there is no multicollinearity across items or predictor constructs.…”

This research was aimed at investigating the environmentally responsible behavior of tourists and their satisfaction with a tourist destination. Moreover, this study examined the effects of employee service quality, perceived value, environmental commitment and tourist satisfaction with a destination on loyalty and environmentally responsible behavior. We used data from tourists (n = 640) who had previously visited the world’s longest natural sea beach (Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh). A partial least square structural equation model (PLS-SEM) method was used in this study to evaluate the proposed model and hypotheses. The results suggest that the perceived value of the destination has a significantly positive impact on both tourist satisfaction and environmental commitment. Similarly, employee service quality significantly impacts perceived value, tourist satisfaction and environmental commitment. Thus, both perceived value and employee service quality also substantially affect the environmentally responsible behavior at the Cox’s Bazar tourist destination. The main contribution of this research involved an investigation of the mediating effects of environmental commitment and tourist satisfaction with a destination on loyalty and environmentally responsible behavior using a single model based on relationship quality theory. Tourist satisfaction was found to completely mediate the relationship between the perceived value of a destination and environmentally responsible behavior, as well as loyalty. In addition, the theoretical and managerial implications for the destination were discussed.

“…Studies have shown that the enhanced employee engagement is an excellent predictor of work performance, organizational success, financial performance, and client satisfaction ( Coetzee & De Villiers, 2010 ; Schmitt, Den Hartog & Belschak, 2016 ). However, Dospinescu & Dospinescu (2020) termed this as an occupational hazard where increase work pressure engagement impairs physical health, psychological well-being, and work performance. Hence, job stress and pressure acts as a mediator between demands and work related outcomes.…”

“…The study was conducted using modified questionnaires on workaholism, work engagement, job stress and satisfaction questionnaire (WHWEJSSQ), taking guide from three validated research tools, The Brief Job Questionnaire (BJSQ), Dutch Work Addiction Scale (DUWAS) ( Dospinescu & Dospinescu, 2020 ) and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) ( Dospinescu & Dospinescu, 2020 ; Otsuka et al, 2020 ). The WHWEJSQ consisted of 76 closed ended questions.…”

“…Moreover, WE promotes the state of being comfortable, healthy, or happy and a stress free life ( Sharma, 2017 ). Thus, an employee with maximum social skills easily adheres to the work environment and fulfills all their responsibilities ( Dospinescu & Dospinescu, 2020 ; Otsuka et al, 2020 ). Similarly, it was observed that workaholics are less happy with their employment despite of being energetic.…”

Background Workaholism (WH) is related with high mental trouble and physical objections, low employment and family fulfillment, and low occupation execution; however, work commitment is related with job and life satisfaction. This study aimed to assess the impact of WH and work engagement (WE) on medical university employee job stress and satisfaction. Methods This descriptive analytical study was conducted on workers employed in medical universities using validated questionnaires for data collection. The sample size was 330, from which 305 responded with completed questionnaire. The employees were the direct workers of different accessible medical universities in Karachi, Pakistan. The employee enrolment and distribution of the questionnaire was performed using non-probability convenient sampling. The Brief Job Questionnaire (BJQ), Dutch Work Addiction Scale (DUWAS) and Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) were used to assess the impact of job stress on job satisfaction and WE. The data was analyzed by applying descriptive statistics, Spearman correlation and regression analysis. A p-value of ≤ 0.05 was taken as significant. Results The study consisted of 117 (38.4%) male and 188 (61.6%) female participants; the mean age of participating employee was 28.50 ± 6.192. The mean score for WE was 3.78 ± 0.467, that of WH was 3.42 ± 0.559, for JS was 4.29 ± 0.400, whereas JSF was 3.10 ± 0.591. A positive correlation was observed between job stress, WH and WE. WH had a strong correlation with job stress and weak correlation with job satisfaction and performance. A significant difference was observed between WE and WH among males and females. Conclusions The study presented with a significant effect of job satisfaction with WH and WE with job stress. Hence, indicating the importance of social skills and WE with fellow employees to increase the work productivity and performance. However, in case of over work and WH, an increase of job stress is inevitable.

“…In order to validate this, the variance inflation factor (VIF) for multicollinearity was calculated, and was found to be within the interval (1 < VIF < 5). After checking the multicollinearity, regression analysis was performed in three steps [49]. The first step was to conduct a regression analysis to determine the direct impact of advertising practises on impulsive purchasing behaviour.…”

Influence of Electronic Word of Mouth (eWOM) and Relationship Marketing on Brand Resonance: A Mediation Analysis

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

This study investigates how electronic work of mouth (eWOM) mediates the relationship between marketing relations and brand resonance. Based on the information obtained from 473 customers using an online questionnaire, this study analyses the relationship between eWOM, relationship marketing practices and the brand resonance of lifestyle products in an Indian context. The results from the multiple regression analysis indicate that the proposed hypotheses are valid, that relationship marketing significantly affects brand resonance, and that eWOM significantly mediates the relationship between the relationship marketing and brand resonance of branded apparel. The findings suggest that personalized attention and tangible rewards are effective relationship marketing strategies, and that these relationship-marketing practices—in association with eWOM—build up the strong brand resonance of branded apparel. The present study recommends that marketers should place emphasis on effective online and offline relationship marketing strategies, and should design appropriate eWOM strategies to enhance brand loyalty, brand attachment, brand community and brand engagement. Some of the managerial implications and the future scope of study based on the empirical findings are also highlighted in the present research work.
