The Relationship

Chapter 4 considers the department store movement and the birth of a modern middle-class consciousness in the 1940s and 1950s. Department stores remained key battlegrounds and took on greater significance as black purchasing power had reached an unprecedented level of $8-9 million by 1947 and the relationship between consumption and citizenship had changed. For the most part, the department store movement remained a fight for jobs in the immediate postwar era, taking on consumer issues as it saw fit. This phase of the movement marked a period of preliminary testing that would eventually lead to militant protests in the 1950s and 1960s. Under the leadership of the National Urban League (NUL) and American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), the movement relied on intercultural education and moral exhortations. Emblematic of racial liberalism and the early civil rights movement, the NUL and AFSC believed that if respectable blacks and white community leaders simply asked store officials to hire African Americans in sales and clerical, they would, and after that “their attitude about integrated workplaces and African Americans generally would change,” helping them “topple barriers in other industries and locations.”

PurposeThe purpose of the current paper is to examine the relationship between storescape (retail's physical and social environment factors) and customer loyalty (CL) and how employee citizenship behaviour towards customer (ECB-C) facilitates this relationship.Design/methodology/approachThis study used a descriptive quantitative, non-experimental research method using a cross-sectional design with a self-administered questionnaire. In total, 415 department store customers in Australia responded to the survey through an online panel provider.FindingsResults confirmed the significance of all relationships between physical and social storescape factors, customer satisfaction (CS) and loyalty, except the direct effect of physical factors on CL. The findings also highlighted the interaction effect of ECB-C in the relationship between storescape factors, satisfaction and CL, indicating that these effects are stronger at higher levels of ECB-C than lower levels.Practical implicationsThe study provides insights for department store retailers, practitioners and marketing managers into the role of ECB-C in forming and shaping CS and loyalty, especially when there is a lack of storescape effect on CS and loyalty.Originality/valueThis study extends the consecutive relationship of the stimulus–organism–response (SOR) model by adding ECB-C as a moderator. The study employed resource exchange (RE) theory to investigate the direct effect of storescape on CL beyond its indirect effect through organism suggested by the SOR model.

The existence of employees have an important role in determining the company’s effectiveness and efficiency level, therefore, the company must realize the importance of human resources, in order to a few employees who want to resign (turnover). Before resign, the employees will wolk on some cognitive process that called intention. One of the factors that can be decrease turnover intention is work engagement. This study aimed to determine the relationship between work engagement with employee’s turnover intention at Department Store X in Banda Aceh. This study was conducted of 54 contract employees at Department Store X in Banda.. Data were collected by using a scale adaptation of Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) and Turnover Intention Scale (TIS). Collected data were analyzed using Pearson Product-Moment Correlation which showing correlation coefficient (r) of -0.695 with p = 0.000 (p 0.05). The result showed that there is a negative relationship between work engagement with turnover intention. It means, if the work engagement of employees is high, turnover intention or otherwise will be lower. The results also showed that the majority of the level of work engagement on contract employees at Department store X Banda Aceh include into the average category (61.11%) and turnover intention are in the low category (31.48%).

The purpose of this paper is to understand the current situation of foreign tourists’ purchasing behavior in Japan and shows the further directions of the fashion industry in Japan. In order to achieve this goal, a questionnaire survey is conducted in a department store in Tokyo.  Cross tabulations are used as the analysis methodology to investigate the relationship between countries and regions, traveling companions, number of visits and purchase expenditure, duty-free items purchased. As a result, the current situation and overall tendency of the purchasing behavior of foreigners visiting Japan are illustrated. In addition, this paper proves the hypothesis that Chinese tourists to Japan are more willing to buy fashion items.

In the present study, the authors examine the relationship that job attribute preferences have on the decision to leave for newly hired employees. Samples from three retailers, a department store, a supermarket, and a specialty store were used. Results indicate that although job attributes may not be useful in understanding turnover, they hold promise in explaining unmet worker expectations.

A review is given of information on the galactic-centre region obtained from recent observations of the 21-cm line from neutral hydrogen, the 18-cm group of OH lines, a hydrogen recombination line at 6 cm wavelength, and the continuum emission from ionized hydrogen.Both inward and outward motions are important in this region, in addition to rotation. Several types of observation indicate the presence of material in features inclined to the galactic plane. The relationship between the H and OH concentrations is not yet clear, but a rough picture of the central region can be proposed.

Biologic Factors

The Mesozoic-Cenozoic coral Order Scleractinia has been suggested to have originated or evolved (1) by direct descent from the Paleozoic Order Rugosa or (2) by the development of a skeleton in members of one of the anemone groups that probably have existed throughout Phanerozoic time. In spite of much work on the subject, advocates of the direct descent hypothesis have failed to find convincing evidence of this relationship. Critical points are:(1) Rugosan septal insertion is serial; Scleractinian insertion is cyclic; no intermediate stages have been demonstrated. Apparent intermediates are Scleractinia having bilateral cyclic insertion or teratological Rugosa.(2) There is convincing evidence that the skeletons of many Rugosa were calcitic and none are known to be or to have been aragonitic. In contrast, the skeletons of all living Scleractinia are aragonitic and there is evidence that fossil Scleractinia were aragonitic also. The mineralogic difference is almost certainly due to intrinsic biologic factors.(3) No early Triassic corals of either group are known. This fact is not compelling (by itself) but is important in connection with points 1 and 2, because, given direct descent, both changes took place during this only stage in the history of the two groups in which there are no known corals.

Abstract This commentary focuses upon the relationship between two themes in the target article: the ways in which a Markov blanket may be defined and the role of precision and salience in mediating the interactions between what is internal and external to a system. These each rest upon the different perspectives we might take while “choosing” a Markov blanket.

Abstract Cognitive Gadgets offers a new, convincing perspective on the origins of our distinctive cognitive faculties, coupled with a clear, innovative research program. Although we broadly endorse Heyes’ ideas, we raise some concerns about her characterisation of evolutionary psychology and the relationship between biology and culture, before discussing the potential fruits of examining cognitive gadgets through the lens of active inference.
