Research on cross-national (and cross-group) measurement invariance is now well developed in the social and behavioural sciences, but this research has yet to engage research practitioners whose focus is measuring and modelling customer loyalty and customer experience. This is a notable gap in existing research on cross-group comparisons, especially considering the reliance of business decision-makers on customer feedback.
