This paper explores how the positive effect achieved when consumption value matches brand benefit can increase brand loyalty. Prior research on consumption value mainly focused on perceived value; these studies omit consumers' views of consumption value. Therefore, this study examines the effect of congruence between consumption values (functional, emotional, social, and ethical value) and perceived brand benefits (enabling, enticing, symbolic, and socially responsible benefits) on consumers' brand identification, trust, and loyalty. We find a positive effect on brand identification and brand trust when a consumer's value is similar to a brand benefit, particularly between functional value and enabling benefit, and ethical value and socially responsible benefit. However, congruence between consumption value and perceived brand benefit only had an indirect effect on brand loyalty by mediating brand identification and trust. This study provides a basis for implementing a marketing strategy to build brand assets and increase brand loyalty by providing consumers with the value they want in a diversified market.

Fashion brands seek guidelines for effective green advertising messages, considering benefit appeals, brand types, and construal level. However, few studies have explored their simultaneous interplay. Thus, the present study conducted an experiment with a 2X2X2 between-subjects design to investigate how brand type and construal level moderate the mediating role of ad-brand congruency between benefit appeals and purchase intention. A total of 245 Millennials and Generation Z participants completed an online survey, and the data were analyzed using SPSS. A significant three-way interaction was revealed. Low-construal-level messages with concrete content showed disparities between aspirational and accessible brands concerning other-benefit appeals: Accessible brands utilizing other-benefit appeals demonstrated higher ad-brand congruency, while aspirational brands had lower ad-brand congruency. Furthermore, within aspirational brands, self-benefit appeals resulted in higher ad-brand congruency than other-benefit appeals. Finally, a moderated mediating effect was discovered, indicating that brand types and construal level moderated the mediating effect of ad-brand congruency between benefit appeals and purchase intention. The mediating effect was prominent in the context of self-benefit appeals, aspirational brands, and low-construal-level messages. This study highlights the intricate dynamics of the three factors in green advertising, providing valuable insights for crafting more targeted green advertisements.

This research is ultimately to understand the general behavior of luxury goods consumers and to diversify the consumer groups according to the relationships between their benefit seeking and brand loyalty. The subjects used for the research were 223 female consumers who purchased fashion luxury goods. The data were analyzed by factor analysis and multiple regression. The results showed that there were four factors in benefit seeking of luxury goods; self-improvement, aesthetics, uniqueness and quality. Each of the factors was analyzed in relation to brand loyalty and brand variety seeking motivations. Brand loyalty's factors were continuous brand loyalty, trademark brand loyalty and devoting brand loyalty. Brand variety seeking motivation factors were change/novelty seeking motivation, quality/recommendation, discounted price and unique types of product line. The consumers who were seeking self- improvement were showing trademark brand loyalty rather than continuous or devoting brand loyalty. Meanwhile, the quality benefit seeking customers showed continuous or devoting brand loyalty. The most important motivations in brand variety seeking was change/ novelty seeking. The implications and marketing strategies of the research were discussed.

본 연구는 관계혜택과 브랜드 동일시에 관한 탐색적 연구로서 충성도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 온 관계 혜택과 브랜드 동일시를 함께 고찰하려는 데에 목적이 있다. 관계 혜택과 브랜드 동일시는 각각 충성도와 유의한 관계가 있는 것으로 잘 알려져 왔으나, 그들 간의 관계를 함께 살펴본 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 한편으로는 카드산업에서 관계혜택이 중요한 전략적 요소인 동시에 최근에는 브랜드 개성과 이미지를 카드에 연결시키려는 시도를 하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 관계 혜택과 충성도와의 관계를 브랜드 동일시가 매개할 것으로 보고 그 영향을 탐색하였다. 결과적으로 관계혜택 차원, 즉 확신적 혜택과 특별대우혜택이 개인적 동일시와 사회적 동일시에 영향을 미치고, 개인적 동일시가 충성도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 특히 확신적 혜택은 충성도에 직접적인 영향도 있는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 소비자의 브랜드편익(상징적 vs. 기능적)이 브랜드확장에 미치는 영향을 살펴보는 것으로, 특히 상표신념의 매개효과와 범주적 유사성의 조절효과를 살펴보았다. 이를 위하여 초점집단면접과 프리테스트를 통해 2개의 제품범주(시계와 가방)에서 각각 2개의 모브랜드(롤렉스 vs. 카시오, 프라다 vs. 코치)와 2개의 확장제품(팔찌, 구두)을 자극물로 선정하고, 구글(www.google.com)의 설문조사 사이트를 통해 전국의 성인남녀를 대상으로 196개의 표본자료를 수집하여 부적절한 응답지를 제외한 193개의 응답지로 최종 회귀분석을 하였다. 연구결과 소비자가 추구하는 브랜드편익에 따라 브랜드확장에 대한 태도가 달라질 수 있다는 선행연구의 결과를 재확인하였으며, 이는 상표신념에 의해 완전 매개된다는 점도 확인하였다. 또한 본 연구에서는 소비자의 브랜드편익이 브랜드 확장태도에 미치는 영향이 범주적 유사성에 의해 조절될 수 있음도 확인하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 상표신념의 구축이 브랜드확장 전략의 하나로 충분히 사용될 수 있다는 이론적 시사점과 범주적 유사성을 고려한 브랜드커뮤니케이션 전략이 브랜드 편익에 따라 달라져야 한다는 실무적 시사점을 제공한다. 또 본 연구를 활용하여, 브랜드 적합성 또는 충성도 등 다양한 조절요인과 매개요인과의 관계설정도 가능하리라 본다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of T-shirts product type and apparel benefit on consumer preference and purchasing intention. Data for the study were obtained by $3\times2$ mixed factorial design. The subjects were two hundred and thirty college male and female students. The data were analysed by factor analysis, cluster analysis, and ANOVA by using the SPSS program. The results of this study indicated that benefit did not have effects on consumers purchasing intention but significant influences on consumer preference for brand-parody products. For brand-copy products, benefit influenced the purchasing intention, and did not influence the consumer preference. This study suggested that new fashion trends, in association with consumer's benefit, have effects on consumer's purchasing behavior. The result of this study is likely to be useful in planning marketing strategy related to product type and new fashion trends.

The purpose of this study is 1) to develop and validate the BRQ construct perceived by brand loyal consumers, 2) to evaluate the predictive capacity of the individual BRQ dimension and brand relationship benefit on consumers' relationship intention, and 3) to identify the distinctive loyalty orientation based on the concept of BRQ. Questionnaire data from 379 brand loyal consumers on BRQ, brand relationship benefit, relationship intention, and their brand loyal behavior pattern were analyzed. The results showed that brand loyal consumers' BRQ composed of 3 dimensions including 'compensational bind', 'self attachment', and 'trust'. In addition, the mediating role of BRQ in predicting consumers' loyal relationship intention was validated using the structural equation model. Regarding the effect of each BRQ dimension on loyal relationship intention, consumers' intention to be loyal to an apparel brand was more explained by self attachment than the other dimensions. This study also intended to provide a useful direction to apparel brands in finding out which relationship quality type is more effective for differentiated marketing strategies by comparing the BRQ of single-brand loyal consumers and that of multi-brand loyal consumers.
