  • The Effects of Social Media WOM and Fan Pages on Young Americans’ Intention to Purchase Foreign Pop
    International Journal of Business & Applied Sciences Vol. 9 No. 3, pp. 1-16 (2020) ISSN: 2165-8072 (Online); 2471-8858 (Print) The Effects of Social Media WOM and Fan Pages on Young Americans’ Intention to Purchase Foreign Pop Hyun Sang An, Christina Chung*, Alexander Muk This study examines how social media influences young American consumers’ intentions to consume foreign pop music. For the theoretical foundation, the Uses and Gratification Theory (UGT) and the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) are applied, and a model is created using 7 constructs: entertainment need, escape need, familiarity, attitude toward foreign pop music, intention to share foreign pop music information on social media, intention to join the fan page, and intention to purchase foreign pop music. Data was collected from 293 young American consumers. The results explain that young Americans form positive attitudes toward foreign pop based on their entertainment needs and familiarity with general pop music. The attitudes affect social media Word of Mouth (WOM) and intention to join an artist’s fan page. Further, WOM and fan page influence to purchase intention foreign pop music. This study's findings imply that young consumers’ engagement with an artist via that artist’s fan page is more critical than social media WOM. As managerial suggestions, entertainment related messages should be delivered continuously in social media to facilitate favorable attitude formation, as well as the same for artist-fan engagement. Keywords: foreign pop music, social media WOM, fan page, entertainment need, familiarity, attitude Introduction The U.S. is the most exciting market in the world and streaming application (Lister, 2017) and 57% of Millennials worth the challenge for foreign pop artists since the U.S.

  • A Redevelopment Plan for a Power Centre in Cambridge, Ontario
    Rethinking suburban power retail: A redevelopment plan for a power centre in Cambridge, Ontario Joshua Adams Supervised research project School of Urban Planning McGill University August 24th, 2016 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor Cameron Charlebois, and Professor Nik Luka for their comments and guidance throughout this process. ii Abstract Power retail first came to Canada in 1987, and has since come to dominate the suburban retail landscape. With more than 487 power centres nationwide, these large, isolated developments are symptomatic of larger suburban problems: they generate traffic congestion, they are not accessible to those without cars, they have negative consequences on the environment, and they are unattractive. As cities enter the 21st century, many governments have introduced policies to stop suburban sprawl by focussing on the redevelopment of existing areas. In Southern Ontario, policies like the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe call for a large percentage of future residential development to take place within the built-up area. Suburban municipalities like Cambridge, Ontario, will have to examine underutilized areas to evaluate their development potential in order to handle future growth. This process is known as retrofitting, where existing areas are redeveloped in a way to support high-density development. Using primary and secondary sources, this paper tracks the history of power retail in Canada and how it interacts with the suburban landscape. Then, a number of retrofitting urban design techniques are examined with respect to how they were used in real projects. This leads to a redevelopment plan for a power centre in Cambridge, Ontario, that is retrofitted to a mixed-use, transit-oriented neighbourhood that can serve as a benchmark for the city to reach its growth targets.
