Research interests
My research interests focus on digital consumer behaviour, particularly online consumer incivility, social media interactions, online complaints, service recovery, and AI-mediated brand communication. I am also interested in consumer responses to humour, anthropomorphism, brand communication, electronic word-of-mouth, and consumer engagement. Methodologically, my research draws on experiments, surveys, and systematic literature reviews.
