ONLINE ALIŞVERİŞÇİLER: ATALET VE MEMNUNİYETİN ONLINE ALIŞVERIŞ SADAKATİNE ETKİSİ

Abstract

Amaç - Bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerinde meydana gelen köklü değişikliklerin önemli bir yansıması olarak online alışveriş tüketicilerin günlük yaşamlarının, işletmelerin ise faaliyetlerinin vazgeçilmez bir parçası haline gelmiştir. Online alışveriş yapan tüketicilerin sadakati, tüketici ataleti ve tüketici memnuniyetleri konseptleri ile açıklanmaya çalışılacaktır.

Yöntem- Bu amaca ulaşmak için online alışveriş yapan tüketicilere yüz yüze anket yöntemi ile bir uygulama gerçekleştirilecektir.

Bulgular- Kuo, Hu ve Yang (2012), tüketici ataleti ve memnuniyetinin; tüketicilerin online alışverişe yönelik alışveriş niyeti ve sadakati üzerinde olumlu etkilerini olduğunu ortaya koymuştur.

Sonuç- Bu bağlamda çalışma kapsamında elde edilecek sonuçların, Türk online alışverişçilerin sadakatlerinde etkili olan unsurlara farklı bir bakış açısı sunacağı düşünülmektedir. Araştırmanın, literatürdeki diğer çalışmalar doğrultusunda elde edilen sonuçların kıyaslanmasına ve tartışılmasına olanak sağlaması bakımından önemli olduğu düşünülmektedir.
