Customers in developing countries evaluate their co-creation efforts differently than those in developed countries. Hence, this study also explores the moderating effects of customer efforts in value co-creation activities on wellbeing enhancement. A transformative framework for healthcare services was developed using transformative service research (TSR) and value co-creation perspectives. Data collected from 421 healthcare customers were used to test the proposed model using structural equation modeling. The results indicate that timeliness, tangibles, technical quality, engagement facilitation, risk assessment, and relationship quality positively influence service satisfaction. The results also reveal that customer efforts in value co-creation activities bolster the effects of service satisfaction on behavioral intention and quality-of-life. The results offer important insights into how healthcare organizations can utilize supportive co-creation practices to enhance business and societal impacts. This study offers a transformative service framework depicting the enhancement of service outcomes through practical unification of the roles of service providers and customers in the healthcare context. Hence, this study contributes to the research agenda in TSR and, more importantly, healthcare management in developing countries.Keywords: Co-creation practiceshealthcarequality of lifeservice qualityvalue co-creationwellbeing Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementThe data that support the findings of this study are available on request from the corresponding author.

The system uses its awareness of context, time, and users to (re)generate customer touchpoints and other marketing communications. Its output provides deep insights into regular and altered FMCG customer journeys, such as shopping behaviors under stressors like lifestyle choices or cataclysmic socio-economic and weather events. The recursive model advances from current, generative AI systems. It uses “tired or inspired” as a simplified bifurcated grocery shopper taxonomy to operationalize customers’ purchasing and consumption behaviors into actionable data for demand planning and retail operations.Keywords: Artificial intelligenceregenerative AIshopper marketingconsumer marketingretail operationsrecommender systemsnudginggroceryshoppers Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsRussell J.

A cross-cultural analysis focused on the German and Portuguese markets of Instagram users was implemented. Data were collected with an online survey distributed in Germany and Portugal, resulting in a sample of 467 participants, 214 from Germany and 253 from Portugal. Data were analyzed using structural equation modeling with partial least squares (PLS-SEM). Findings confirmed that expertise and attractiveness enhance the influencer’s ascribed opinion leadership. On the contrary, trustworthiness does not influence ascribed opinion leadership. The influencer’s ascribed opinion leadership promotes purchase intention. This study advances influencer marketing literature by deepening our understanding on the influence of online opinion leaders on social media user’s behavioral intentions.Keywords: Expertisetrustworthinessattractivenesssocial media influencersascribed opinion leadership Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by National Funds of the FCT – Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology within the project UIDB/04928/2020.","PeriodicalId":47051,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Consumer Marketing","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134886409","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A reconceptualized consumer ethnocentrism measurement scale was used to capture cognitive, affective, and behavioral dimensions that previous studies have ignored. A total of 555 consumers were sampled through online questionnaires distributed on social media and used Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling to test the proposed model. The results show that consumer ethnocentrism has a significant negative effect on Malaysian consumers’ willingness to buy Chinese products. In contrast, consumer cosmopolitanism was rejected due to opposing path directions, and consumer internationalism was insignificant. Future research should examine multi-dimensional consumer ethnocentrism in other countries and products, and incorporate alternative measurements for consumer cosmopolitanism. The research recommends that managers consider multi-dimensional consumer ethnocentrism when strategizing to market international products, as it provides more depth than simply relying on consumer cosmopolitanism.Keywords: consumer ethnocentrismconsumer internationalismconsumer cosmopolitanismChinese productsMalaysia AcknowledgmentThe authors would like to thank the International Islamic University Malaysia for generously funding the research.Notes1 https://themalaysianreserve.com/2020/12/31/china-remains-malaysias-largest-trading-partner-for-11th-year/ accessed on 6 September 20212 https://tradingeconomics.com/malaysia/imports/china/electrical-electronic-equipment updated on September of 2021.
