Everyone is pursuing the purchase of counterfeit products for varying reasons. The trends show that certain aspects have fairly strong impacts …show more content…

The higher the KMO of a test, the more the sample and the resultant data is said to be adequate for the purpose of obtaining factors out of the variables. The KMO is generally said to be at least 0.5 to be considered as adequate. 0.6 is considered acceptable, 0.7 is good, and 0.8 is very good, and so on. Our study has shown as a KMO value of 0.755 which is a decently good number. Thus, it can be said that our model is adequate and that the resultant factors that have been obtained can be considered to be valid to a rage extent. Additionally, the Significance value is also at a very comfortable 0.000 showing that the data obtained from our sample and model is completely significant as a …show more content…

Yet both these variables are technically based on the moral compass of the consumer. There are no serious legal charges for the consumer of a counterfeit product and it is barely caught as it is. A person that has his own morals in a place that says follow the law no matter what or do not indulge if it is wrong can be categorized under one roof.
