Although much research on customer behaviors has demonstrated the positive role of inertia in the action loyalty phase, previous studies on inertia still emphasize the spurious dimension of customer loyalty. This study seeks to analyze how inertia varies with differing levels of alternative attractiveness, relationship length, and commitment in affecting customer loyalty. The results suggest th...

Functional behavioral assessment (FBA) and functional analyses (FA) are grounded in the applied behavior analysis principle that posits problem behavior is functionally related to the environment in which it occurs and is maintained by either providing access to reinforcing outcomes or allowing the individual to avoid or escape that which they find aversive. Previous research has pointed to the...

A 'first-passage-time' analysis is applied to enzyme kinetics. It is shown that the residence times determined in this way are directly related to the steady-state parameters and are particularly useful in analysis of isotopic exchange. A simple linear means is used for the calculation of these residence times that makes this method easily applicable to the numerical evaluation of complex model...

We discuss theoretical and practical implications of these findings.
