My research develops new consumer behaviour models in interactive and non-interactive retail markets based upon three forms of empirical evidence: qualitative, actual consumer response data sets and questionnaire data. These models direct strategy decision making particularly in relation to consumer behaviour (e.g., retailing, interactivity, customer experience, branding, hedonic/utilitarian consumption) in the consumers usage and purchase behaviour in offline, online (web), social media, mobile and gaming markets.
