The regression results show that Brand Attitude mediates the relationship between eWOM and Purchase Intention, thus strengthening the impact of eWOM on consumer purchase decisions. Implication: The implications of this study highlight the importance of effectively managing eWOM to enhance Brand Attitude and Purchase Intention.
