This research aims to investigate the relationship between customers’ innovativeness and their intentions to adopt new mobile phones from the standpoint of Egyptian university students. The research studies the direct effects of the five dimensions of customers’ innovativeness on their intentions of new products adoption, which are measured through the mediating effect of two factors: the risks to mobile phones perceived by the customers and customer involvement. The research also aims to identify the so-called “initiators” segment; customers who have the highest probability for purchase the product early. A quantitative method with deductive approach is chosen in this research. Four hypotheses have been designed to determine: whether there is a significant difference in customers’ perception of risks to new mobile phones, innovativeness, involvement, and adoption intentions according to demographic variables (gender, place of residence, income); whether there is a significant positive effect of customers’ innovativeness on customers involvements with new mobile phones; whether there is a significant negative effect of customers’ innovativeness on the perceived risks to new mobile phones; and whether there is a significant positive effect of customers’ innovativeness on their intentions to adopt new mobile phones. A significant impact of the five dimensions of customers’ innovativeness is found on the adoption intentions of new mobile phones. Also a significant effect of the five dimensions of customers’ innovativeness is found on the perceived risks and customer involvement factors. The research develops a new model of the relationship between the customers’ innovativeness and their intentions to adopt new products. In practice, the research results contribute to help marketing managers for better market fragmentation and identify customer segments with high innovativeness; which helps organizations prepare appropriate marketing campaigns and thus leads to the success of new products deployment.

Previous studies mainly analysed the relationship between perceived organisational support and organisational commitment in a direct way. Limited studies of tourism, however, have found that job satisfaction is a mediator variable in the relationship between perceived organisational support and organisational commitment. The aim of this study is, (i) to analyse the effect of organisational support on job satisfaction, (ii) to analyse the effect of organisational support on the dimensions of organisational commitment, (iii) to analyse the effect of job satisfaction on the dimensions of organisational commitment, and (iv) to analyse the mediating effect of job satisfaction on the relationship between perceived organisational support and dimensions of organisational commitment based on an empirical study. The relationship between the variables was analysed by using a multivariate data analysis. Besides this, in the study, the mediating effect of job satisfaction on the relationship between perceived organisational support and the dimensions of organisational commitment was analysed by the technique recommended by Baron and Kenny (1986) and the Sobel test. The findings indicated that perceived organisational support had a significant positive effect on job satisfaction, affective, normative and continuous commitment. Job satisfaction had a significant positive effect on affective, normative and continuous commitment as well. Besides this, job satisfaction played a partial mediating role between perceived organisational support and dimensions of organisational commitment. Implications were presented for hotel managers who want to keep and encourage their employees to work in the hotel industry.
