  • Generation Z in Japan: Raised in Anxiety

    Sakashita M., The New Generation Z in Asia: Dynamics, Differences, Digitalization, 2020.01

    　View Summary

    Generation Z in Japan, born between 1995 and 2010, has unique characteristics. First, they are pessimists, which is mainly because of the challenging environment in which they were raised, with long-lasting low economic growth and multiple natural disasters. Second, they are digital natives, with a high level of digital device literacy. Raised in a highly advanced technological environment, they benefit in various ways by leveraging such devices. Also, they value relationships with family and friends, forming very close intimate relationships with their parents and broad shallow relationships with their friends. These unique characteristics turn Generation Z into a careful spender in consumption, and a stability seeker in workplaces. As consumers, they are very knowledgeable using both online/offline information, thus, are very selective and cautious when spending their money trying to prepare for the possible risk in the future. As employees, they are less loyal to companies and value their private life higher than their work life. A guideline for targeting Generation Z in Japan is presented.

    Journal of Business Research （Journal of Business Research)  146   605 - 618 2022.07

    Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work, Accepted,  ISSN  01482963

    　View Summary

    Consumers increasingly adopt artificial intelligence (AI) enabled voice assistants (VAs) for transactional and non-transactional uses due to these devices’ inherent affordances, such as their ease of use and convenience. Despite the widespread adoption of VAs in recent times, consumers continue to avoid using VAs for transactional purposes. Currently, we have a limited understanding of the various antecedents and consequences of consumer decision avoidance in the context of VAs. This study aims to bridge this gap by adopting the decision avoidance theory as a theoretical lens and a convergent mixed-methods approach to identify the antecedents (i.e. cognitive biases and nudging) and consequences (i.e. rejection of VAs for transactional purposes and intention to adopt VAs for transactional purposes) of consumer decision avoidance (i.e. consumer inertia and procrastination). The study findings suggest a positive association of cognitive biases with consumer inertia, procrastination and rejection. While nudging is positively associated with procrastination and intentions, it shares a negative association with rejection. Consumer inertia is positively associated with rejection and negatively associated with intentions. Meanwhile, procrastination shares a positive association with intention and a negative association with rejection. Technology comfort has a significant moderating (negative) influence on the association between cognitive biases and intentions.

  • Personality and travel intentions during and after the COVID-19 pandemic: An artificial neural network (ANN) approach

    Talwar S., Srivastava S., Sakashita M., Islam N., Dhir A.

    Journal of Business Research （Journal of Business Research)  142   400 - 411 2022.03

    Research paper (scientific journal), Joint Work, Accepted,  ISSN  01482963

    　View Summary

    The tourism sector has been deeply ravaged by the COVID-19 pandemic as many individuals abstained entirely from travel. Thus, before contemplating the trajectory of the sector's recovery, it is essential to understand individuals’ travel intentions both during and after the pandemic. The present study contributes in this regard by examining the impact of individuals’ personality traits categorised by the five-factor model, or the Big Five, on their leisure travel intentions during and after the pandemic. To this end, we utilised an artificial neural network (ANN) approach to analyse 500 responses from individuals residing in Japan. The results reveal that extraversion has the strongest relative influence on intentions to travel during the pandemic, whereas openness to experience has the strongest influence on travel intentions after the pandemic. This study is the first of its kind to examine the influence of the Big Five personality traits on travel intentions in the context of a pandemic.

    　View Summary

    The purpose of this study is to investigate the antecedents and consequences of consumers' "no brand preference", which occurs when consumers do not hold any particular positive attitude towards all the major existing brands in a product category, by theoretically and empirically focusing on consumers' cognitive structure. Analyzing the behavioral and attitudinal data of actual consumers, it revealed that consumers searching for information about a particular brand tended to hold lower level of brand parity (perceived similarity among different brands in a product category), thus forming higher positive attitude towards the brand.
