| Abstract: | Mobile devices offer flexibility in time and space compared with laptop or desktop computers. Mobile devices enable consumers to be connected online more continually. This paper proposes a causal model for consumer participation in electronic word of mouth (eWOM) and compares the effects of PC-based and mobile-based eWOM. The results show that desire only partially mediates the effects on social intention of social identity. Mobile-based eWOM participants of the survey exhibit significantly higher perceptions on social intention, intrinsic enjoyment and cognitive social identity. |
