Title: | Value Co-Creation and the Psychological Capital of the Customer | Authors: | LEROI-WERELDS, Sara STREUKENS, Sandra |
Issue Date: | 2012 | Publisher: | EMAC | Source: | Rita, Paulo (Ed.). Proceedings of the 41st Annual EMAC Conference, p. 369-369 | Abstract: | Building upon recent advances in the organizational psychology literature, the authors aim to better understand the variables that underlie a customer’s intention to participate in the value creation process. More specifically, they investigate whether the recently recognized construct of Psychological Capital (PsyCap) can be extended to the customer domain. PsyCap is a higher-order state-like construct consisting of various capacities that drive the motivation to achieve specific tasks and goals. Furthermore, the authors incorporate PsyCap in a framework based on Social Cognitive Theory. The results show a significant, indirect relationship between the customers’ PsyCap and their intention to co-create value. | Keywords: | value co-creation; customer participation; psychological capital | Document URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/1942/14753 | ISBN: | 978-989-732-004-0 | Category: | C1 | Type: | Proceedings Paper |
