چکیده

هدف از پژوهش حاضر بررسی تاثیر انواع اخبار نامطلوب (اخبار نامطلوب مرتبط با ارزش‌ها و اخبار نامطلوب مرتبط با عملکرد) در منفوریت برند محصولات ورزشی بود. پژوهش حاضر از نظر هدف کاربردی و جامعه‌ی آماری پژوهش، کلیۀ استفاده‌کنندگان از محصولات ورزشی در دانشگاه کردستان بودند که نمونه‌ی آماری 550 نفر انتخاب شد. به منظور مقایسۀ 2 نوع اخبار نامطلوب، نمونه پژوهش به 2 گروه تقسیم شدند و از روش نمونه‌گیری تصادفی ساده برای جمع‌آوری داده‌ها استفاده شد. جهت اندازه‌گیری متغیرهای پژوهش از پرسشنامه، و برای تحلیل داده‌ها از روش-های آمار توصیفی (فراوانی، درصد، میانگین) و استنباطی (تحلیل مسیر) استفاده شد. نتایج پژوهش نشان داد هر دو نوع اخبار نامطلوب (منفی) در نفرت از برند محصولات ورزشی تاثیرگذار است، اما اخبار منفی مرتبط با ارزش‌ها تاثیر قوی‌تری دارد. همچنین نتایج بیانگر این بود که در هر دو گروه، تنفر از برند تاثیر مثبت و معناداری در هر سه پیامد رفتاری (اجتناب از برند، تبلیغات توصیه‌ای منفی علیه برند و انتقام از برند) دارد. بر این اساس، پیشنهاد می‌شود مدیران شرکت‌ها نسبت به اخبار منتشر شده از محصولات و شرکت خود در رسانه‌ها و فضاهای مجازی حساس باشند و از انتشار اخبار نامطلوب (بخصوص اخبار مربوط به ارزش‌ها) که در اکثر موارد نیز ممکن است دروغ و یا شایعه باشد، جلوگیری کنند.

The results also indicated that in both groups, brand hate had a positive and significant effect on all three behavioral outcomes (Brand Avoidance, Negative WOM and Brand Retaliation).

And prevent the dissemination of undesirable news (especially value-related news) which in most cases may also be false or rumored.
