Thus economists rely on rules of thumb instead of theories and predictions. O It is difficult and sometimes impossible for economists to conduct controlled...
*Abstract*: Recent advances in information technologies (I) have powered the merger of online and offline retail channels into one single platform. Modern consumers frequently switch between online and offline channels when they navigate through various stages of the decision journey, motivating multichannel sellers to develop omni-channel strategies that optimize their overall profit. This study examines consumers' cross-channel search behavior of "pseudo-showrooming," or the consumer behavior of inspecting one product at a seller's physical store before buying a related but different...
In a research study conducted by Bunce and West (2008), they suggest that individual innovation is one of the least understood aspects of human behavior at work. Why should we be concerned with innovative work behaviors? Why should we be concerned about finding ways to research and study ways to affect innovative work behaviors? How is the construct of IWB operationalized? Please provide some examples of the construct in an organizational setting.
