본 연구는 통합적 브랜드 관리에 있어 매체 간 컬러의 불일치가 브랜드 태도에 긍정적인 영향을 미치며, 브랜드-소비자 자아 일치성이 이 영향에 조절적 효과를 가져 온다는 가정을 실험을 통해 증명하였다. 매체는 컬러의 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 시각적 영향이 부각되는 매체로 제한하였으며, 컬러 이외의 시각적 요인은 일관되도록 하였고, 브랜드에 대한 친숙도가 낮은 브랜드, 브랜드에 대한 이전의 지식이 없는 브랜드를 대상으로 하였다. 결과는 매체 간 컬러의 불일치에 따른 브랜드 태도는 컬러의 일관성에 따른 브랜드 태도에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 브랜드-소비자의 자아일치가 낮은 경우에 높은 경우보다 태도의 변화가 높게 나타나 가설이 모두 지지되었다. 이 결과는 브랜드의 관리적 요소로서 브랜드 표현, 즉 시각적 요인 중 컬러를 통하여 브랜드에 대한 인식을 높이고, 긍정적인 브랜드 태도를 형성할 수 있다는 것을 제안하였다는 것에 의의가 있다. 또한 본 연구는 브랜드 관리자의 직관에 의지하던 브랜드 표현의 일관성과 다양성의 수준이 일반적 의식보다 더 폭넓다는 것을 실증적으로 증명하고, 이전의 연구에서 성숙브랜드(mature brand)를 리포지셔닝 repositioning)하는 전략으로만 연구되었던 불일치를 신생 브랜드의 인지를 높이기 위한 전략으로 그 범위를 확장시켰다고 할 수 있다.

The objectives of this study were to investigate university students' knowledge and expectation of functional materials for apparel and to examine how the knowledge and expectations affect their behavioral intention. For this purpose, a questionnaire survey was conducted. 500 questionnaires were distributed to the students and 409 questionnaires were used for data analysis. The data were analyzed by frequency, factor analysis, reliability analysis, regression analysis and ANOVA, using SPSS 12.0 package. As the results, it showed that the knowledge related to functional materials for apparel was medium level. Brand knowledge among the objective knowledge of functional materials for apparel revealed to have a lower level than the knowledge of clothing materials, product, use and wash & care. The level of self-evaluation knowledge among subjective knowledge appeared to be lower than the one of experience related knowledge. As the correlation coefficient of objective knowledge and subjective knowledge was low, it was thought that both of them must be considered in studying on consumer knowledge. It showed that the university students' expectation of functional materials for apparel was composed of physiological and physical aspects, social and psychological aspects, and practical and aesthetic aspects. The expectation was revealed to be generally high. However, the level of expectation to the practical and aesthetic aspects was lower than those of other aspects. University students' knowledge and expectation were found to have influence on their behavioral intention. In other words, it showed that the higher university students' knowledge level and expectation level were, the bigger behavioral intention was.

It is well known that consumer's quality perception is strongly affected by price. Higher priced products tend to be perceived to have better quality than lower priced products although the objective product quality is the same. However, it is less known the process through which quality perception is affected by price cues. The existing literature suggests three potential hypotheses (i.e., the selectiveprocessing hypothesis, the selective interpretation hypothesis, and the representativeness heuristic hypothesis) that explain the underlying processes of the price-induced quality perception. The current research tests among the three competing hypotheses and also examines the role of consumer knowledge as a moderating factor. An experiment was conducted to test the moderating role of the knowledge in the price-quality relationship and to investigate the underlying process. The results indicate that theinfluence of price on perceived quality differs between novices and experts. Expert consumers' quality perception is not significantly influenced by price and this finding is consistent with the extant literature. On the other hand, novice consumers' quality perception is affected by price and the tests on the underlying process support for the representativeness heuristic hypothesis. Novice consumers assess that a high-priced brand should have good product quality due to the belief that high (low) price brands represent better (worse) brand quality and such a representativeness heuristic occurs without involving selective attention or selective interpretation price-consistent information.

Generally, higher brand equity ends up with higher market share and higher profitability. However, superior brand equity does not guarantee the success in the market. That is, consumer choice is closely related to brand equity but we need more than brand equity to explain this complex phenomenon. We adopt the customer equity concepts: value equity, brand equity, and retention equity. By incorporating value equity and retention equity into customer equity, it is possible to avoid the problems of using the brand equity only. In the paper, we apply this customer equity concepts to cellular phone and investigate the effects of antecedent variables such as exposure, knowledge, positive experience and negative experience on the components of customer equity. In addition, as surrogate measure of customer lifetime value, the weighted measure of purchase intention, consideration set inclusion, and next purchase is used as dependent variable. We estimate the effects of components of customer equity at the brand level and aggregate level using SURE model. Estimation results show that Apple has currently low market share but has high future potentials and Korean firms have currently high market share but has rather low future potentials.

The purpose of this research is to identify factors affecting consumer's brand preference toward environment-friendly products like electric vehicles in Bangkok, Thailand. The researcher conducted the study based on a quantitative approach and adapted a nonprobability sampling as a convenience sampling method. The data were collected from 400 respondents living in Bangkok, who are 18 years old and above, with significant knowledge of electric vehicles. This study adapted the Structural Equation Model (SEM) and Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) to examine the model accuracy, reliability and verification influence of various variables. The results revealed that social influence has significant effect on environment concern as well as a positive effect on attitude. The initial significance of environment concern leads to a positive effect on fuel efficiency, followed by brand preference. Lastly, attitude has a significant effect on brand preference as attitude of consumers toward environment-friendly products affects the encouragement of brand preference, which largely depends on individual opinion. From an environmental concern, the researchers identified fuel efficiency and attitude having a positive and significant effect on brand preference toward environment-friendly products for electric vehicles. The authors also found that environmental concern and social influences on green purchasing behavior were significantly interrelated.

The primary objective of this research is to develop a better understanding of consumer's post-purchase psychological state by examining the influence of sales promotion and emotional brand attachment on post-purchase cognitive dissonance, taking into account the mediating role of impulse buying behavior. The current study addresses several gaps in literature. Firstly, it is hard to find the direct impact of sales promotion and emotional brand attachment on post-purchase cognitive dissonance. Secondly, to the best of our knowledge, few studies have investigated the mediating role of impulse buying behavior in consumer research. A sample of 256 respondents was collected from Pakistani retail consumers. The statistical findings of this study show that sales promotion has a significant positive effect on the impulse buying behavior and post-purchase cognitive dissonance. Furthermore, results indicate that emotional brand attachment has a negative influence on impulse buying behavior but has a significant positive impact on post-purchase cognitive dissonance. Meanwhile, impulse buying behavior is a potential mediator between sales promotion, emotional brand attachment, and post-purchase cognitive dissonance relationships. The moderating role of Gender describes that the positive relationship between sales promotion and post-purchase cognitive dissonance will be stronger for women as compared to men at a higher level of sales promotion.

A typical small firm in consumer goods sectors of developing countries is an OEM supplier to big MNCs. Lacking design and marketing capability, a small firm relies on the MNCs for survival but their long term growth is not guaranteed as the MNCs are always looking for, and ready to relocate to, cheaper production sites. In this light, we can say that there is something like "OEM trap" from which most firms from LDCs find difficult to move out (Lee 2005). In this situation, one way for long term growth and catch-up is to make a transition to the OBM (own brand manufacturer). But, the transition is not easy or even risky. This paper analyzes the cases of three companies in Korea to find out common features in their successful transition to OBM. They are Aurora World (a flush toy maker), Hankook Chinaware (a chinaware maker), and Hanacobi (a plastic-made food container maker with the Lock-and-Lock brand). These firms can be commonly characterized by 1) arranging access to external knowledge base and steady increase of in-house R&D efforts and capabilities leading to acquisition of formal IPRs and their management, and 2) establishment of global production networks with factories in lower-income countries as well as their own independent global marketing network.

복합원산지제품 평가에 관한 수많은 연구들이 진행되어 왔지만, 아직까지 실무에 적용될 만한 구체적인 연구결과는 드물게 진행된 것으로 여겨진다. 본 연구는 복합원산지제품에 평가를 기존의 연구들 보다 구체적으로 파악하여 세분시장에서 요구되는 시사점들을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 소비자들의 복합원산지제품 구입경로, 복합원산지제품의 카테고리, 소비자들의 개인적 특성(조절초점성향, 제품에 대한 사전지식)을 반영하여 종합적인 비교를 평균차이검정(two-way ANOVA)을 통해 검증하였다. 분석결과, 제품의 구입경로에 따른 복합원산지제품의 평가에서는 오프라인 매장이 온라인 매장보다 다소 우호적으로 나타났으며, 제품카테고리별로는 필수재가 사치재보다 상대적으로 긍정적인 평가를 이끌어냄을 알 수 있었다. 한편, 소비자의 개인적 특성에 따른 비교에서는 촉진초점 성향을 가진 소비자는 예방초점성향의 소비자 보다 복합원산지제품에 대한 브랜드 선호도를 우호적으로 지각하는 것으로 확인되었으며, 사전지식수준이 높은 집단은 낮은 집단에 비해 제품에 대한 평가가 긍정적이라는 것을 알 수 있었다.
