چکیده مقاله :
هدف از این پژوهش، بررسی استراتژی‌های وفادارسازی و ارتباطات شفاهی مشتریان محصولات ورزشی (آدیداس) در عراق بوده است. روش تحقیق با هدف کاربردی و به صورت توصیفی -همبستگی اجرا شد. جامعۀ آماری پژوهش، مشتریان محصولات ورزشی برند آدیداس در عراق بوده که تعداد آنها برای محقق نامعلوم بوده است. حجم نمونه بر اساس فرمول کوکران برای جوامع نامعلوم 384 نفر بدست آمده است. روش نمونه‌گیری این پژوهش به صورت غیرتصادفی در دسترس بود. ابزار جمع‌آوری داده‌ها در این پژوهش، پرسشنامه استاندارد الجوسیل و همکاران (2021) بوده است. جهت بررسی روایی ابزار، از روایی محتوایی (تأیید اساتید و خبرگان) و سازه (بارهای عاملی) استفاده گردید. جهت پایایی ابزار از آلفای کرونباخ و پایایی ترکیبی استفاده شد و در نهایت روایی و پایایی ابزار تأیید شد. برای تجزیه و تحلیل داده‌ها از مدل‌یابی معادلات ساختاری با استفاده از نرم افزار Smart-PLS استفاده شد. نتایج نشان داد که استراتژی‌های وفادارسازی (اعتبار، اعتماد، نگرش و تجانس)، بر وفاداری و ارتباطات شفاهی مشتریان محصولات ورزشی برند آدیداس در عراق تأثیر دارد. همچنین، تأثیر وفاداری بر ارتباطات شفاهی مشتریان نیز تأیید شد.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the loyalty strategies and Word of Mouth Communication of sports product customers (Adidas) in Iraq. The research method was applied with a descriptive purpose and descriptive-correlational manner. The statistical population of the study was the customers of Adidas brand sports products in Iraq, which was unknown to the researcher. The sample size was 384 based on Cochran's formula for unknown communities. The sampling method was available non-randomly. The research tool was the standard questionnaire of Alguacil et al. (2021). To evaluate the instrument's validity, content validity (approval of professors and experts) and structure (factor loads) were used. Cronbach's alpha and combined reliability were used for instrument reliability, and finally, the validity and reliability of the instrument were confirmed. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data using smart pls software. The results showed that loyalty strategies (credibility, trust, attitude, and homogeneity) affect the loyalty and Word of Mouth communication of Adidas brand sports products in Iraqi customers. The effect of loyalty on customers' Word of Mouth communication was even confirmed.
