Research Abstract |
Political, economic, religious, and ethnic issues often act as triggers for various conflicts between countries or regions. Sometimes these conflicts affect day-to-day consumption behavior or attitude. This research examines the impact of these conflicts on consumer behavior in multiple regions. The results show a cross-regional pattern. The animosity did not directly affect the willingness to buy. However, the subjective norm seems to have a relatively strong effect on the willingness to buy.
