Hypotheses and structural model estimates

Hypotheses and structural relationship Coefficients t value
H1: Good ICR → PA 0.337 4.481**
H2: Bad ICR → NA − 0.223 − 2.657**
H3: High ISP → PA 0.535 7.216**
H4: Low ISP → NA − 0.396 − 4.615**
H5: PA → Increasing customer retention 0.638 9.134**
H6: NA → Decreasing customer retention − 0.125 − 2.051*

The variance explained

Customer Retention (R2) = 0.498

Positive Affect (R2) = 0.653

Negative Affect (R2) = 0.336

Total impact on customer retention

PA = 0.638; NA = − 0.127

ICR = 0.242; SP = 0.388

Moderation formula

Y = i + aX + bM + cXM + E

The interaction of X and M or coefficient c measures the moderation effect

Here path a measures the simple effect of X, sometimes called the main effect of X, when M equals zero

Indirect impact

βICR-PAandNA-customer retention = 0.242

βSP-PAandNA-customer retention = 0.388
