Every Step Counts: When Physical Movement Affects Perceived Value

Mathmann, F., Chylinski, M., Higgins, T. & de Ruyter, K. (2017). Every Step Counts: When Physical Movement Affects Perceived Value. Journal of Retailing and Consumer Services, 39, pp. 279-285. doi: 10.1016/j.jretconser.2017.08.007

Abstract

Physical movement is an important contextual factor during customer’s decision-making. Yet, little is known about how movement can affect customer’s response to mobile promotions, or how it can influence the search and evaluation of products in a retail setting. Across three studies, this research shows that physical movement improves the perceived value of products and promotions for customers with a predominant locomotion motivation. Such effects are mediated by engagement. One implication is that retailers may increase engagement for individuals with a predominant locomotion motivation by playing mobile adverts when cellular sensors indicate movement.
