18
Attitude Scales
• The three most frequently used scales are:
– Likert scales: easy for researchers to prepare
and interpret, and simple for consumers to
answer.
– Likert scales ask the respondent to check or
write the number corresponding to their level of
"agreement" or "disagreement" to statements.

THINGS TO REMEMBER
ABOUT SEGMENTATION
• Segments must exist in the marketplace
• More than one segmentation pattern may
exist
• Segments can shift over time
• Targeting one or more segments is more
profitable than targeting the entire market
• Segmentation is at the core of a successful
marketing strategy
35
Step 2. Market Targeting
Evaluating Market Segments
• Segment Size and Growth
– Analyze current sales, growth rates and expected profitability for
various segments.
• Segment Structural Attractiveness
– Consider effects of: competitors, availability of substitute
products and, the power of buyers & suppliers.
• Company Objectives and Resources
– Company skills & resources needed to succeed in that
segment(s).
– Look for Competitive Advantages.
36
TARGETING STRATEGIES

STEP 3: POSITIONING
Market Positioning: arranging for a product to
occupy a clear, distinctive, and desirable place
relative to competing products in the minds of
target consumers. i.e. Chevy Blazer is “like a rock.”
• Part of the marketing strategy which allows to give the
product/service its own identity
• Positioning is a competitive tool
• Positioning can be operated at the physical level or at the
perceptual level
• A strong position in buyers’ minds gives the product a
competitive advantage
41
Step 3. Choosing a Positioning
Strategy
Step 1. Identifying
Possible Competitive
Advantages
Step 2. Selecting the
Right Competitive
Advantage
Step 3. Communicating
and Delivering the
Chosen Position
42
Step 3. Choosing a Positioning
Strategy
• Product’s Position - the way the product is
defined by consumers on important attributes the place the product occupies in consumers’
minds relative to competing products.
• Marketers must:
– Plan positions to give their products the greatest
advantage in selected target markets,
– Design marketing mixes to create these planned
positions.
43
Examples of Perceptions
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Coca-Cola = cool, all-American, and real
Pepsi = young, exciting, and hip
Dr Pepper = nonconforming, unique, and fun
Virginia Slims = feminine
Marlboro = masculine
Apple = young
IBM = older
44
Identifying Possible Competitive
Advantages
• Key to winning and keeping customers is to
understand their needs and buying processes
better than competitors do and deliver more
value.
• Competitive advantage is an advantage over
competitors gained by offering consumers
greater value, either through lower prices or by
providing more benefits, that justify competitive
advantage,

Chapter 4
Consumer Motivation
Rational
Versus Emotional Motives
• Some consumer behaviorists distinguish
between so-called rational motives and emotional
motives.
• Traditional economic sense, which assumes that
consumers behave rationally when they carefully
consider all alternatives and choose those that
give them the greatest utility.
• In a marketing context, the term rationality
implies that consumers select goals based on
totally objective criteria, such as size, weight,
price, or miles per gallon.
Rational
Versus Emotional Motives
• Emotional motives imply the selection of
goals according to personal or subjective
criteria (e.g., pride, fear, affection, status.)
• The assumption underlying this distinction
is that subjective or emotional criteria do
not maximize utility or satisfaction.
Rational
Versus Emotional Motives
• Positivist research
– Rationally motivated
– Isolate the causes
– Can predict, and thus influence, future behavior
• Interpretivists
– hedonistic pleasures
– consumption behaviors such as fun, fantasy sensuality
– Understanding behaviors in various circumstances.

Postpurchase Behavior
Arousal of
Motives
• Physiological arousal
– Bodily needs are rooted in an individual's
physiological condition at that moment
– Most physiological cues are involuntary
• Emotional arousal
– Thinking or daydreaming results
in the arousal or stimulation of
latent needs
Arousal of Motives
• Cognitive arousal
• Personal achievement can lead to
a cognitive awareness of needs
• Environmental arousal
– Set of needs may be activated by specific cues in
the environment
– People living in a complex and highly varied
environment may have more opportunities for
need arousal
Philosophies Concerned
With Arousal of
Motives
• Behaviorist School
– Behavior is response to stimulus
– Elements of conscious thoughts are to be ignored
– Consumer does not act, but react
• Cognitive School
– Behavior is directed at goal achievement
– Need to consider needs, attitudes, beliefs, past
experiences, etc. in understanding consumer
behavior
+
Positive
Motivation
Negative
Motivation
A driving force toward some
object or condition.
A driving force away from
some object or condition.
Substitute
Goal
A goal that replaces an
individual’s primary goal
when the goal cannot be
achieved or acquired.
• Although the substitute goal may not
be as satisfactory as the primary goal,
it may be sufficient to dispel
uncomfortable tension.
Defense
Mechanism
Methods by which people
mentally redefine frustrating
situations to protect their
self-images and their selfesteem.
Motivational
Research
Qualitative research
designed to uncover
consumers’ subconscious or
hidden motivations. The
basic premise of
motivational research is that
consumers are not always
aware of, or may not wish to
renewal, the basic reasons
underlying their actions.
Chapter 5
Personality and Consumer
Behavior
What is
Personality?
The inner psychological
characteristics that both
determine and reflect how a
person responds to his or her
environment.
The Nature of Personality
• Personality reflects individual differences
• Personality is consistent and enduring
• Personality can change
Theories of Personality
• Freudian theory
– Unconscious needs or drives are at the heart of
human motivation
• Neo-Freudian personality theory
– Social relationships are fundamental to the
formation and development of personality
• Trait theory
– Quantitative approach to personality as a set of
psychological traits (sort of scales)
Freudian
Psychoanalytic
Theory
A theory of motivation and
personality that postulates
that unconscious needs and
drives, particularly sexual
and other biological drives,
are the basis of human
motivation and personality.
Neo-Freudian
Personality
Theory
A school of psychology that
stresses the fundamental role
of social relationships in the
formation and development
of personality.
Trait Theory
A theory of personality that
focuses on the measurement
of specific psychological
characteristics.
Horney’s CAD Theory
• Using the context of child-parent relationships, individuals can be
classified into:
– Compliant individuals
• moves toward others e.g., one who desires to be loved,
wanted, and appreciated by others
– Aggressive individuals
• moves against others (e.g., competes with others).
– Detached individuals
• moves away from others (e.g., who desires independence,
self-sufficiency, and freedom from obligations).
Personality and Consumer
Diversity
• Some specific consumer traits
are of particular interest to
marketers:
– Consumer Innovativeness
– Cognitive Personality Factors
– Consumer Materialism, Fixated
Consumption Behavior, and
Compulsive Consumption
– Consumer Ethnocentrism
InnerDirected
Consumers
Consumers who tend to rely
on their own “inner” values
or standards in evaluating
new products and are likely
to be consumer innovators.
OuterDirected
Consumers
Consumers who tend to look
to others for direction on
what is “right” and “wrong.”
They are less likely to be
consumer innovators.
Optimum
Stimulation
Levels (OSL)
A personality trait that
measures the level or amount
of novelty or complexity that
individuals seek in their
personal experiences. High
OSL consumers tend to
accept risky and novel
products more readily than
low OSL consumers.
VarietyNovelty
Seeking
A personality trait similar to
OSL, which measures a
consumer’s degree to variety
seeking
Visualizers
Consumers who prefer
visual information and
products that stress the
visual, such as membership
in a videotape cassette club.
Verbalizers

verbal or written information
and products, such as
membership in book clubs or
audiotape clubs
Consumer
Materialism
A personality-like trait of
individuals who regard
possessions as particularly
essential to their identities
and lives.
• The emotional connection between
consumers' self-images and their
possessions is explained by the
concept of the extended self.

compulsive buyers have an
addiction; in some respects,
they are out of control and
their actions may have
damaging consequences to
them and to those around
them.
