Atmospherics, pleasure and arousal: the influence of response moderators

Article Abstract:

There are a number of response moderators which control the relationship between perceived environment and mood states. They include personality traits, shopping motives, familiarity with the environment and expectations. Research on this subject has used LISREL VII, a linear structural equation modelling approach. It has been possible to produce an atmospherics model specified in terms of LISREL equations and covariance matrices. It was confirmed that consumers with strong shopping motives experience the most pleasure and that stimulus screening is inversely proportional to the level of arousal.
