Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of landscaping, a store greeter, and an electronic kiosk upon college students’ responses to a university-branded and owned merchandise store located in a downtown shopping district. The research was informed by the Stimulus-Organism-Response (S-O-R) model (Mehrabian & Russell, 1974), which proposes that consumers' emotional responses to a physical store environment mediate how the environment shapes their patronage behaviors.
