The purpose of this study is to investigate online customers‘ inertia behavior toward online vendors. In our study framework, consumer trust is divided into two intermediary variables: trust in user and trust in vendor. We employ two types of consumer trust to explore whether online customers‘ behavior (repurchase and inertia) toward online vendors can be affected. We collected 450 valid samples in accordance with the proportion of demographic statistics offered by the Market Intelligence and Consulting Institute (MIC). The empirical results reveal that customer trust is critical for online consumers to develop inertia with online vendors. Furthermore, trust in user is not significantly causally related to inertia, whereas trust in user played an important moderating role between independent variables and dependent variables in our research framework. |
