Reciprocal Effects of Word of Mouse and Online Trust: A Three-Wave Longitudinal Study
Abstract This is the first study to investigate the reciprocal relationship between word of mouse and online trust. It was expected that consumers develop online trust through word of mouse information, and conversely, consumers who trust online sellers consume word of mouse (WOMS) to affirm their initial beliefs. Hypotheses were tested with a sample of 447 consumers based on a three-wave longitudinal design. The results supported that a reciprocal relationship exists between WOMS and online trust. Word of mouse predicted subsequent online trust, and online trust predicted word of mouse. Since these reciprocal effects indicate a virtuous cycle with positive effects of online trust and WOMS for both sellers and consumers, the results of this study have implications for both researchers and practitioners alike.

The business world has undergone many changes because of information technology, and the impact of the Internet may cause one of the biggest yet. While many people use the Internet for educational and entertainment purposes, organizations and companies are looking for ways to tie their internal networks to this global network to conduct electronic commerce. While companies have been conducting business electronically with suppliers and customers for many years, conducting online commerce via the Internet offers even greater opportunities for multinational, national, and even small businesses to cut costs, improve efficiency, and reach a global market.
