A Study on Exploring the Factors Influencing Celebrity Endorsement Credibility
Material type: TextDescription: 494-509 PSubject(s): In: BANIK, ARINDAM GLOBAL BUSINESS REVIEWSummary: This study tries to explore the factors contributing to the source credibility of celebrities as brand endorsers and, subsequently, develops a conceptually integrated scale for the same in Indian perspective. To conduct an empirical investigation, a survey is conducted consisting of 432 participants. In this study, exploratory factor analysis (EFA) followed by confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) has been con-ducted. Exploratory factor analysis resulted in three factors or dimensions. All the indicators are strongly loaded into their respective construct. The Cronbach’s alpha, composite factor reliability and variance extracted measure for validity checks are found to be satisfactory. All pairs of inter-construct correlation are found to be positive and significant. The issue of multicollinearity did not bear a serious threat to the data. Common method effect of Harmen’s one-factor post hoc test result indicates that multidimensional three-factor model fits the data well than the one-factor model. These results are also invariant across different demographic profiles, namely, gender, educational qualification and age.Item type | Current library | Call number | Vol info | Status | Notes | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | |
