Abstract

This study examines the mediating role of fitness centre members' attitudes between perceived risk-behavioural intention and the moderating role of brand equity in the linkage between “perceived risk-behavioural intention” and “perceived risk-attitude-behavioural intention.”. Data was collected from 280 fitness club members in Ankara, Türkiye. Proposed hypotheses are tested through PROCESS analyses. The analyses demonstrated support for the hypotheses. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, a noticeable decrease in fitness centre memberships is attributed to perceived risks. In this context, this research contributes to the fitness centre literature by exploring the role of brand equity and providing insights for managers.
