Abstract: | Mass customization is a utilized strategy in creating value by customizing products to customers' needs and at the same time in keeping costs low. This study tests a network of antecedents and consequences dealing with three dimensions of consumer confusion (henceforth as: c-cfn.), that is, similarity, overload, and unclarity confusion. Product knowledge and usability decrease c-cfn. C-cnf. is negatively related to satisfaction with the product, experienced fun, and trust. Through these processes, word-of-mouth (WOM) is also affected by c-cnf. |
