Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,3, University of Passau (Lehrstuhl für Betriebswirtschaftslehre mit Schwerpunkt Marketing und Services), course: Bachelorseminar, language: English, abstract: The aim of this paper is to shed light on the various ways in which traditional word of mouth (WOM) and electronic word of motuh (eWOM) influence consumer behaviour in terms of the resulting SBC, brand loyalty, self-enhancement and vice versa. In addition, consumers' subsequent reactions after their behaviour has been influenced by the different ways of communication are portrayed. Accordingly, the classification of the topic in the field of marketing research and the definitions of central terms and concepts are determined in the first step. Then, the paper will provide an overview of the current state of research regarding the topic in chapter three. Subsequently, chapter four demonstrates an in-depth presentation of the article "Word of Mouth versus Word of Mouse: Speaking about a Brand Connects You to It More Than Writing Does" written by Hao Shen and Jaideep Sengupta. When discussing the article's main findings in more detail, this study will particularly present its objectives, data basis used, methods, findings and limitations. Finally, it concludes with some reflections on possible implications for practitioners and researchers and will give an outlook toward further research contexts.

Individuals are likely to exhibit different behaviors between mobile and non-mobile devices, for a number of reasons. For example, mobile devices enable ubiquitous access, through their portability, yet they also constrain users because of the smaller form factor. Very little work to date has attempted to examine the impact of these differences holistically. Indeed, the work that does exist has generally focused on approaches to location-based advertising. One particularly important aspect of mobile usage behavior pertains to user content generation. Bearing this in mind, we aim here to improve our understanding of device-dependent user behavior by examining differences in content generated on mobile and non-mobile devices, in the context of electronic word of mouth. We demonstrate a variety of important differences in reviews that are submitted via mobile devices; they exhibit lower and more varied star ratings, contain more concrete and emotional text, and are generally perceived as more helpful. We discuss the implications for both service providers and the management of online review platforms.

A very special mouse escapes from a lab to find his missing family in this charming story of survival, determination, and the power of friendship. What makes Isaiah so unique? First, his fur is as blue as the sky—which until recently was something he'd never seen, but had read all about. That's right: Isaiah can read and write. He can also talk to humans . . . if any of them are willing to listen! After a dramatic escape from a mysterious laboratory, Isaiah is separated from his "mischief" (which is the word for a mouse family) and has to survive in the dangerous outdoors, and hopefully find his missing family. But in a world of cruel cats, hungry owls, and terrified people, it's hard for a young, lone mouse to make it alone. When he meets an equally unusual and lonely human girl named Hailey, the two soon learn that true friendship can transcend all barriers.
