The present study aims to investigate the effect of ideal self-congruence, brand attachment and some personality factors on the negative behaviors of consumers such as compulsive buying, anti-brand actions, and trash talking. The research population was comprised of customers of four IT service brands including Samsung, HP, Sony, and Apple in Iran. Structural equation modeling approach and PLS ...

This study aims to investigate the mediating effects of consumer satisfaction on the relationship between consumer-based brand equity and brand loyalty in the hotel and restaurant industry. Based on a sample of 378 customers and using structural equation modelling approach, the five dimensions of brand equity—physical quality, staff behaviour, ideal selfcongruence, brand identification and life...

We prove the following result: Theorem. Every algebraic distributive lattice D with at most א1 compact elements is isomorphic to the ideal lattice of a von Neumann regular ring R. (By earlier results of the author, the א1 bound is optimal.) Therefore, D is also isomorphic to the congruence lattice of a sectionally complemented modular lattice L, namely, the principal right ideal lattice of R. F...

While there is ample evidence that consumer attachment varies across luxury and non-luxury brands, a lack of research in understanding the predictors, moderators consequences brand attachment. This paper aims to develop test model for (study 1), examine moderating influence self-consciousness on relationship between actual/ideal self-congruence 2), validate privately publicly consumed products ...

This study aimed to find the role of image congruence in context robotic coffee shops. More specifically, this proposed that three types including actual self-image congruence, ideal and social aid increase brand attitude. In addition, it was attitude positively affects attachment loyalty. For this, collected data from 325 customers who used The analysis results indicated have a positive influe...

It is evident from the definition that the class of all BCK-algebras is a quasivariety. Yet it is not a variety, nor does the largest subvariety of BCK exist—as shown in Wroński [2], Kabziński & Wroński [3], respectively. Several subvarieties of BCK have been isolated and thoroughly investigated, which has led to a substantial body of results (cf. e.g., Blok & Raftery [4]). Nevertheless, the qu...
