ABSTRACT
For years, retailers have often made it a point to align themselves with the
high quality brands they sell. A brand with strong brand equity is a valuable
asset to the manufacturer as well as retailers. However, there are very few
studies on the effects of the brands sold by a retailer could have on customer
evaluations on the retailer. Thus, the objective of this research is to examine
the role of consumer trust in and satisfaction with the brand and their
relationship to retailer trust and satisfaction, and ultimately retailer
repurchase. This paper replicates the model proposed Zboja and Voorhess
(2006) relating to the impact of brand trust and satisfaction on repurchase
intentions with the retailing firm. There are six hypotheses in this research.
First, there is a positive relationship between satisfaction with the brand and
trust in the brand. Second, there is a positive relationship between satisfaction
in the retailer and trust in the retailer. Third, there is a positive relationship
between satisfaction in the brand and satisfaction in the retailer. Fourth, there
is a positive relationship between trust in the brand and trust in the retailer.
Fifth, there is a positive relationship between satisfaction with the retailer and
repurchase intentions with the retailing firm. Finally, there is a positive
relationship between trust in the retailer and repurchase intentions with the
retailing firm. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect the data
for this study. Translation and back-translation of the indicators in the
original study was conducted to obtain a measure consistent with the
Indonesian cultural understanding of the indicators used in the
questionnaires. Questionnaires were distributed to respondents by the drop-
off/pick-up method and a total of 242 completed questionnaires were used in
the analysis. The data was then analyzed using structural equation modeling.
All research hypotheses were supported, except one, which is the relationship
between trusts in the retailer and repurchase intentions with the retailer. This
paper also provides the implications for theoretical and managerial and
offers directions for future research.
Introduction
With increasing expectations and needs, consumers today are demanding higher quality products, more
varieties, better service-scapes, and more attentive and responsive customer service (Muharam 2001). New
retail forms continue to emerge to meet new situations and consumer needs, this is backed up by
accelerating economic which contributes to the increasing the buying power of consumers (Kotler & Keller
2006), resulting in a growth in the retail sector.
Retailers today are always searching for new marketing strategies to attract and hold customers. They
attempt to attract customers with unique products, or better services than their competitors offered (Kotler
& Keller 2006). For years, retailers have often made it a point to align themselves with the high quality
brands they sell (Zboja & Voorhess 2006). Brands are used by manufacturers to distinguish their products
from the competitions.
According to Lamb, Hair and McDaniel (2005), a brand with strong brand equity is a valuable asset to
the manufacturer. Well-known brands also have value for retailers. When a store does not carry a popular
brand, consumers are put off and may switch stores. Therefore, retailers cannot afford to cast off well-
known brands if they want to retain their customers (Quelch & Harding 1996). Previous study conducted
by Delgado-Bellester and Munuera-Aleman (2005) had proven that brand trust is important in the
development of brand equity. The research findings reveal that brand trust is rooted in the result of past
experience with the brand, and it is also positively associated with brand loyalty, which in turn maintains a
positive relationship with brand equity.
The investigation of brand loyalty continues to be a central issue in the marketing management
literature. Research in the broad area of brand loyalty has expanded to include topics such as consumer
loyalty to loyalty programs as they impact sales levels for the brand (Yi & Jeon 2003), the effects of
consumer affiliation with a brand community on their loyalty to the brand (McAlexander, Schouten &
Koenig 2002), and the financial consequences of brand loyalty (Anderson & Mittal, 2000). Other
researches have shown there is a positive relationship between satisfaction with brand and repurchase
intentions (Esch, Langner, Schmitt & Geus 2006).
However, very few researchers have considered the effects that the brands sold by a retailer could have
on customer evaluations on the retailer (Zboja & Voorhess 2006; Fullerton 2005). The scarcity of research
on this topic resulted in a limited understanding of this spill-over effect from consumer trust and
satisfaction in brand to the retailer. Therefore, researcher is interested in doing further research on the
impact of brand trust and satisfaction on repurchase intentions with the retailing firm by replicating the
research done by Zboja and Voorhess (2006).
In an effort to shed new insight into the effects of manufacturers’ brand on customer perceptions of the
retailer, this research seeks to examine the role of consumer trust in and satisfaction with the brand and
their relationship to retailer trust and satisfaction, and ultimately retailer repurchase intentions using a
different research object. This paper is organized into five sections: justifications of the research, a review
of the relevant literature and hypotheses, the research method, the discussion of the results, and conclusions
of the research.
The need for replication in social science research. The research model used in this research is a
replication of a model that was developed by Zboja and Voorhess (2006). According to Hubbard, Vetter,
and Little (1999), the principle of replicability plays an important role in the research process. This is
because replication is the key to generalization (Leone & Schultz 1980 cited by Hubbard et al. 1999). In the
specific, they noted that much empirical research takes place in marketing, but little is generalizable, and
this is why we have little knowledge of marketing phenomena. Furthermore, Durvasula, Andrews, Lysonski
and Netermeyer (1993) also suggested that relationship among constructs in research models must be
established in cross-cultural context in order to identify what, if any, cross-cultural confounds or limitations
may exist with respect to the theory or model’s generalizability. Otherwise, the (unrecognized) presence of
these confounds could give rise to misleading inferences. Also, in the original study, Zboja and Voorhess
(2006) suggested replicating the research model in other industries or product types to validate their
findings. Hence, we attempt to replicate the theoretical framework applied in the United States on an
Indonesia retail context with a different product.
Potential outcomes for marketers. In practices, researchers hope this research could offer meaningful
suggestions to XYZ book store in understanding its role in the spill-over effects from customer perceptions
of trust and satisfaction with a brand to repurchase intention, that is by maintaining customer satisfaction
and trust in itself as the retailer.
Literature Review and Hypotheses
Satisfaction
Customer satisfaction and dissatisfaction are the consumer’s judgments regarding a firm’s success or failure
in meeting expectations (Oliver 1980). Met expectations result in customer satisfaction; unmet expectations
result in customer dissatisfaction. In his other writings, Oliver (1997) defined satisfaction as the summary
of psychological state resulting when the emotion surrounding disconfirmed expectations is coupled with
prior feelings about the consumer experience. In general, satisfaction has been conceptualized in terms of
whether the product or service meets customer needs and expectations (Zeithaml & Bitner 2000). Focusing
on the retail industry, satisfaction with brand or brand satisfaction is defined as a cognitive evaluation of
whether or not the exchange relationship with the brand is rewarding (Esch et al. 2006). Furthermore,
Bloemer and de Ruyter (1998) defined satisfaction with the retailer as the outcome of the subjective
evaluation that the chosen alternative (the store) meets or exceeds expectations.
Trust
Over the years scholars have studied trust from several disciplinary perspectives-anthropology, economics,
psychology, sociology, and political science, to name only a few. As we can expect with such a diversity of
scholarship, not only do different scholars address the same problem from different approaches and with
different methods, but they have expressed inevitable differences of opinion over the fundamental nature of
the joint problem (Bhattacharya, Devinney, & Pillutla 1998).
The emergence of relationship marketing as a dominant focus of both marketing theorists and
practitioners suggests that trust is the main factor on which a relationship is based (Delgado-Ballester &
Munuera-Aleman 2005). Fukuyama (1995) defines trust as the expectation that arises within a community
of regular, honest, and cooperative behavior, based on commonly shared norms, on the part of members of
that community. In relating with brand, trust in a brand is defined as the willingness of the average
consumer to reply on the ability of the brand to perform its stated function (Chaudhuri & Holbrook 2001).
In relating with retailer, Bloemer and Odekerken-Schroder (2002) defined trust in the retailer as a
consumer’s confident belief in a retailer’s honesty towards the consumer.
H1: Satisfaction with the brand has a positive relationship with trust in the brand.
H2: Satisfaction with the retailer has a positive relationship with trust in the retailing firm.
H3: Satisfaction with the brand has a positive relationship with satisfaction with the retailing firm.
H4: Trust in the brand has a positive relationship with trust in the retailing firm.
Repurchase Intentions
Hellier, Geursen, Carr and Richard (2003) define repurchase intentions as the individual’s judgment about
buying again a designated service from the same company, taking into accounts his or her current situation
and likely circumstances. Repurchase intentions, along with loyalty, willingness to pay a price premium,
word-of-mouth, and complaining represent the five behavioral intentions described by Zeithaml, Berry, and
Parasuraman (1996). Oliver (1997) operationalized action loyalty as repeat usage. Furthermore, Delgado
Ballester and Munuera-Aleman (2001) and Macintosh and Lockshin (1997) use repurchase intentions as an
element of loyalty in brand and store contexts respectively.
Based on the overall satisfaction theory, previous studies noted that overall satisfaction completely
mediates the relationship between transaction-specific satisfaction and repurchase intentions (Parasuraman,
Zeithaml, & Berry 1994). Transaction-specific satisfaction is directly integrated into the consumer’s global
evaluation or overall satisfaction with the retailer and it is this global evaluation that influences repurchase
intentions (Anderson, Fornell, & Lehmann 1994; Oliver 1997; Parasuraman et al. 1994). It is believed that
overall satisfaction, as opposed to transaction-specific satisfaction, will influence repurchase intentions
since overall satisfaction is more closely related to a general attitude, which is likely to predict future
behavior (Anderson et al. 1994).
Another model hypothesizes that the relationship between transaction-specific satisfaction and
repurchase intentions is moderated by overall satisfaction. The moderating influence indicates that when
overall satisfaction is high, the relationship between transaction-specific satisfaction and repurchase
intentions is weaker. In this instance, regardless of whether a consumer is dissatisfied with a particular
service experience, they will return to the retailer due to the high level of overall satisfaction based on
previous experiences (Bitner & Hubbert 1994; Bolton 1998).
The word “loyalty” captures long-term relationship elements that satisfaction measurement can mess,
providing a more complete picture of customer’s feelings. Loyalty traditionally has been defined in terms
of its consequences: repurchase intent, actual repurchase, complaint behavior, positive word-of-mouth, and
share of total purchases (Hart & Johnson 1999). In addition, they noted that loyal customers are those who
have been consistently been satisfied over time. Therefore, it is safe to say that satisfaction is the antecedent
of loyalty or repeat purchase intentions.
H5: Satisfaction with the retailing firm has a positive relationship with repurchase intentions with the
retailing firm.
H6: Trust in the retailing firm has a positive relationship with repurchase intentions with the retailing firm.
Research Method
Sample. Because we cannot identify the brand and retailer, we will call them brand “ABC” and retailer
“XYZ”. ABC is a top manufacturer of electronic and XYZ is a well-known retailer carrying brand ABC.
The study used undergraduate students at a large private university in West Java. This research applied
judgment sampling, that is, respondents of this research should ever buy brand ABC in retailer XYZ. A
total of 283 students participated. Of the 283 questionnaires, 23 were unusable either because respondents
had insufficient experience with brand ABC (less than 2 months) or because their answers were incomplete.
The sample size played role in the data analysis of structural equation modeling. According to Hair,
Black, Babin, Anderson, and Tatham (2006), sample sizes in the range of 150 to 400 respondents are
suggested when using SEM. Researcher also determined the size sample to use by using the size that others
have used for similar studies in the past (Churchill & Brown 2004).
Research Instrument. Where possible, established scales were used (Sekaran 2006). Therefore, all research
variables were measured using multi-item scales adapted from prior studies. As the indicators used in this
questionnaire were adopted from previous studies done in English, a back translation process was done to
ascertain the accuracy of translation between the Indonesian and the original English version. Back
translation is the technique most commonly used to check the accuracy of translation in survey research
(Douglas & Craig 2007). There are three advantages in using back translation. First, according to Douglas
and Craig (2007), back translation helps to test for accuracy of the translation. Second, they further stated
that it helps identify problems and egregious errors in translation. Finally, back translation can improve the
reliability and validity of research in different languages. Table 1 show the conceptual and operational
definition of each variable in the study where each indicator represents a question in the questionnaire.

Pretesting. To ensure that questionnaire items were clearly articulated, a pretest was conducted. The
purpose of the pretesting was to improve the questionnaire by identifying and eliminating potential
problems before using it in the actual study (Malhotra 2004). This study used two methods in evaluating
reliability. The first is Cronbach’s alpha and the other is corrected item-total correlation. A minimum value
of 0.7 for Cronbach’s alpha was used as suggested by Hair et al. (2006) and items that exhibited corrected
item-total correlations below 0.5 were eliminated (Hair et al. 2006). As a result 11 indicators were deleted.
Table 2 shows the item purification table.
The items were also assessed for convergent, discriminant, and nomological validity testing as they are
the three most widely accepted forms of validity (Hair et al. 2006). Discriminant validity was evaluated
using a cut-off point for Pearson correlation of no more than 0.75 (Sekaran 2003), while convergent
validity was assessed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). A
cut-off point of 0.50 for factor loadings and a critical ratio of 1.96 were used as suggested by Hair et al.
(2006).
Data analysis. To test research hypotheses, structural equation modeling (SEM) analysis was applied in this
research. This method was used because it is able to simultaneously examine a series of interrelated
dependence relationships among the measured variables and latent constructs as well as between several
latent constructs (Hair et al. 2006).
This study used the two-step approach suggested by Anderson and Gerbing (1988) whereby the
measurement model was first examined to confirm convergent and discriminant validity, followed by the
simultaneous estimation of the measurement and structural models. According to Garson (2008) there is no
point in proceeding to the structural model until one is satisfied the measurement model is valid.
Competing Model. One of the advantages of SEM is that it has a strategy in comparing alternative models
to assess relative model fit (Garson 2008). Competing models strategy is a modeling strategy that compares
the proposed model with a number of alternative models in an attempt to demonstrate that no better-fitting
model exists. This approach is particularly relevant in structural equation modeling because a model can be
shown only to have acceptable fit, but acceptable fit alone does not guarantee that another model will not fit
better or equally well (Hair et al. 2006).
The proposed model is as shown in Figure 1. Two competing models were developed for testing. The
first competing model suggests that satisfaction with the brand does not only influence trust in brand and
satisfaction with the retailer, but also trust in the retailer (Figure 2). The second competing model suggests
that satisfaction with brand and trust in brand are also predictors of repurchase intentions (Figure 3)
Actual Survey
In this research, a questionnaire was administered to a total sample of 283 respondents. After eliminating
incomplete questionnaires, 260 questionnaires were used in the analysis, resulting in a response rate of
91.87%. The instrument was assessed for reliability and validity. The results showed that all Cronbach’s
alpha were over 0.7. Items that did not achieve corrected item-total correlations of 0.5 were eliminated.
Table 3 shows the item purification table in the actual study.
Table 5 shows the Exploratory Factor Analysis. The result showed that convergent validity had been
established as the indicators of the same construct converge in one component and satisfy the minimum
factor loading of 0.50 as suggested by Hair et al. (2006).
Table 6 shows the result of the initial running of data in SEM using 260 respondents. Although the CR of
all the indicators was above 1.96, indicating significant paths, the result showed the presence of a Heywood
case. According to Hair et al. (2006) a Heywood case is a factor solution that produces an error variance
estimate of less than 0, resulting in an illogical solution. The standardized regression weights of trust in
retailer 2 trust in retailer is 1.174. Researcher used the strategy suggested by Garson (2008) to drop
outliers from the data. This resulted in a reduction of the number of actual sample from 260 to 242. Table 7
shows the CFA of the reduced sample size of 242 respondents.
Table 8 shows the comparison of the three models on the goodness-of-fit measures. Based on the
competing model results, competing model 2 was the best fitting model among the three models tested. It
had the same TLI as the original model while performing best for the rest of the indices. However, although
competing model 2 proved to be the best fitting model, the original model was still used for this study as
this study is a replication of Zboja and Voorhess’ (2006) model. On the other hand, competing model 1 and
2 could be used for future research.

Hypothesis 1 proposed that there is a positive relationship between satisfaction with the brand and trust in
the brand. The result of the actual study showed that hypothesis 1 is supported (CR = 7.358). Hypothesis 2
proposed there is a positive relationship between satisfaction in the retailer and trust in the retailer. The
result of the actual study showed that hypothesis 2 is supported (CR = 4.037).
Hypothesis 3 proposed that there is a positive relationship between satisfaction in the brand and
satisfaction with the retailer. The result of the actual study showed that hypothesis 3 is supported (CR =
3.367). Hypothesis 4 proposed that there is a positive relationship between trust in the brand and trust in the
retailer. The result of the actual study showed that hypothesis 4 is supported (CR = 2.446). Hypothesis 5
proposed that there is a positive relationship between satisfactions with the retailer and repurchases
intentions with the retailing firm. The result of the actual study showed that hypothesis 5 is supported (CR
= 4.175).
Finally, hypothesis 6 proposed that there is positive relationship between trusts in the retailer and
repurchases intentions with the retailing firm. The result of the actual study showed that hypothesis 6 is not
supported (CR=1.070).
Discussion
This research attempted to examine the role of consumer trust and satisfaction with the brand and their
relationship to retailer trust and satisfaction, and ultimately to retailer repurchase intention. The test results
showed the rejection of one proposed hypotheses (that is, there is positive relationship between trusts in the
retailer and repurchases intentions with the retailing firm). Researcher tried to further examination of
studies related with trust and satisfaction.
Singh and Sirdeshmukh (2000) distinguished trust before initiation of an exchange (pretrust) from trust
after an exchange (posttrust). On the basis of social exchange theory, they proposed that consumers’
pretrust will have a direct influence on their postpurchase satisfaction. In other words, if a consumer does
not trust the retailer based on past experience, he or she will probably be dissatisfied with that retailer.
Chaudhuri and Holbrook (2001) also provided another rationale for the relationship from trust to
satisfaction. They found that consumers in long-term relationships with retailers experience three primary
types of benefits: confidence, social, and special treatments. Among the three benefits, the confidence
benefit, which is very similar to trust, was the most important to consumers. Confidence benefits include a
sense of reduced anxiety, faith in the retailer, reduced perceptions of anxiety and risk, and knowing what to
expect. When consumers feel these benefits related to trust, their overall satisfaction is enhanced overt the
long term. Therefore, from these studies, researcher concluded that trust in the retailer may not be directly
related to reseller repurchase intentions, but is mediated by satisfaction with the retailer. Further studies
should be done to examine this relationship.
