This
study tested a conceptual model adapted from the literature to explain the
links between hedonic shopping orientation, consumer need for mobile app
atmospherics, mobile irritation and intention to reuse mobile apps. A total of
222 Turkish mobile shoppers participated in the study. Participants, who were
reached by convenience sampling were asked questions about their apparel
shopping behaviors. Hedonic shopping orientation was found to be an antecedent
of consumer need for mobile app atmospherics. Consumers with a high need for a
mobile app atmospherics have a stronger intention to reuse the mobile app.
Also, consumer need for a mobile app atmospherics has a mediating effect on the
relationship between hedonic shopping orientation and the intention to reuse
the mobile app. Lastly, it was found that mobile antipathy has a negative
moderator role in the effect of hedonic shopping orientation on intention to
reuse mobile app. This research extends the area of mobile shopping behavior
research and offers implications for mobile app retailing.
