How do customers react to preferential treatment? An affective events theory and time-lagged survey by Qurat Ul Ain, Qurat Ul Ain, Lim, Weng Marc, Rasool, Shahid, Muhammad Zeshan, Muhammad Zeshan

“…We discovered that preferential treatment makes customers much happier, which then encourages them to both advocate for and buy products on a whim. Unexpectedly, our findings indicate that preferential treatment's ability to elevate customer happiness is somewhat diminished in those with a higher inclination toward seeking attention (attention-seeking motives), due to a perceived lack of genuineness or merit in the treatment received. …”

The Effect of Work Community on Job Transfer Intention: The Mediation Effect of Regulatory Failure and Job Burnout by Kittichokwattana, Patipat, Harun, Azhar, Mohd. Zain, Zawiyah

“…In addition, promotion failure involves the absence of positive outcomes that increases the likelihood of disengagement and seek for an alternative that fulfills hopes and aspirations, whereas prevention failure relates to the presence of negative outcomes which motivate one to strengthen responsibilities and obligations to avoid the further loss resulting in low disengagement. The finding provides a better understanding of the underlying psychological mechanism between the regulatory focus and work well-being…”
