Resumo

As recomendações de líderes de opinião (OL' eWOM) e as Online Consumer Reviews (OCR) são as duas formas mais importantes para conhecer as novas marcas na Internet. Esta pesquisa analisou qual fonte fornece informações mais confiáveis: OL' eWOM ou OCR. Uma amostra de 146 estudantes universitários foi dividida aleatoriamente em três grupos (OL, OCR, Grupo de controle) em um experimento on-line. Os dados foram analisados com uma Análise de variância não paramétrica com o teste Omnibus Kruskal- Wallis entre grupos. Os resultados demonstraram que os OCR são uma fonte de informação mais útil do que OL' eWOM, e quando a experiência de compra do consumidor foi incluída, esta influência é ainda mais forte. Os consumidores com menos experiência em compras on-line podem ser influenciados pelas OL' eWOM.
