Dendrogram using Ward Linkage for online shopping motives
| In the dendrogram on the left side, it is seen that there are three separate clusters according to the values observed. According to the evaluations made about the motivation criteria in online shopping, different segments were formed by dividing consumers into three separate clusters. The fact that there are three separate clusters shows that there are three separate evaluation levels for each of the online shopping motives, and these evaluations occur in three clusters at three separate levels from highest to lowest. Regardless of the standard deviation, the highest value that it can get according to the measurement scale will be 2, the average value will be 0, and the lowest value −2. For example, for motivation criterion 1, the evaluations of the individuals who make up cluster 3 are above zero by 1.26 and have a higher value than the evaluations of the individuals in other clusters. The resulting value for cluster 2 is below zero by −.09. The value that cluster 1 receives is below zero by −.39 and is lower than the assessments of individuals in other clusters. In this way, the evaluations of the individuals who make up the three clusters that arise as shown in the dendrogram for each motivation criterion can be interpreted as follows. (See Table 3) |
