Purpose: There is still lack of guidance for merchants toward price discount presentations (absolute/relative), especially for consumers in different purchase contexts. Based on the general evaluability theory, this study investigates consumers' preferences for the presentation of discounts in various contexts through experiments. Research design, data and methodology: The relationship between discount presentation and consumers' preference is investigated in Study 1 using a two-factor between-subject design of 2 (purchase type: material vs. experiential) ×2 (discount type: absolute vs. relative). The Moderating effect of thinking mode has been examined in Study 2 via a multi-factor intergroup design of 2 (purchase type: material vs. experiential) ×2 (discount type: absolute vs. relative) ×2 (cognitive load: high vs. low). One-way ANOVA and planned contrast have been performed for analysis. Results: Experiment 1 reveals that consumers prefer absolute discounts rather than relative discounts when in material purchases. However, when in experiential purchases, they are willing to choose relative discounts. Experiment 2 verifies the boundary conditions of matching effect and illustrates the generation of matching effect is determined by thinking mode. Conclusions: Our study enriches the theories of purchase type and thinking mode. Simultaneously, the results provide practical guidance for merchants to formulate the discount presentation and distribution pricing strategies.

The aim of this study was to explore the effect of combinations of diverse methods notifying price discounts (i.e., reference price, odd price, and discount rate signs) and the relationships among product attribute perception, discount perception, attitude toward product, and purchase intention of product. Experiments were conducted where 12 stimuli of different price discount information notifications regarding T-shirt advertisements were presented to 352 informants. The results showed that notification of each type of discount information increased discount perception, whereas no effect due to the size of letters used in the discount rate notification was found. As more price discount information notifications were used, discount perception tended to become stronger. The results of ANOVA analysis show that both product attribute perception and discount perception affected attitude toward the product. In addition, product purchase intention was determined by attitude toward the product as well as price discount perception. Based on these findings, marketers may want to use a combination of methods of price discount notifications in advertisements to deliver price discount information clearly to consumers. Confirmation of discount information using multiple cues would help consumers to notice and perceive price discount information provided by retailers more effectively. Discount information is crucial for increasing both purchase intention and favorable attitude, therefore, diverse strategies regarding discount information presentations should be developed, tested and applied in the real world of retailing.

以前的研究已经表明零售价格促销改变消费者的购买行为以及零售商频繁的使用价格促销. 为了持续的从消费者身上获得利益, 零售商会采用几种价格促销方式. 例如, 零售商采用绝 对的降低价格($,€), 百分比价格, 或两种方法的结合(Della Bitta et al. 1981). 采用不同的价格促销类似于购买决定的形成(Monroe 1990). 框架效应是指一个问题两种在逻辑意义上相似的说法却导致了不同的决策判断(Frisch 1993). 因此, 如何陈述促销会影响消费者的交易评价并提高销售量. 事实上, 大量的营销研究已经证实了价格陈述对交易感知的影响(Lichtenstein and Bearden 1989; Urbany et al. 1988; Yadav and Monroe 1993). 从这个意义上说, 很多的营销研究已经论证了交易感知同样由消费者准确的计算折扣和最终价格的水平决定的(Estelami 2003a; Morwitz et al. 1998). 所以营销者能够通过提高计算的准确性来提高消费者对折扣的反应. 最后, 由于整体的计算误差导致低估了折扣(Kim and Kramer 2006), 消费者更容易在深度分析价格信息之后领会打折的报价,使他们能更准确地评估价格折扣. 本研究的目的是测试不同的折扣价格对消费者价格感知的影响. 更准确的来说, 本研究的目的是探索如何不同的执行相同的价格促销(语义和视觉凸显), 从而影响消费者对促销的感知和他们的购买决定. 我们的分析聚焦于价格陈述对评估, 购买意图和储蓄感知的影响. 为了验证提出的假设, 本文用实验性分析来分析几个折扣陈述. 从这个意义上来说, 我们采用一个2(数值显著陈述: 绝对和相对)x 2(语言显著陈述: 新颖的和传统的)x 2(视觉显著: 红色和蓝色)的设计来探索折扣陈述对三个因变量的影响: 评估, 购买意图和储蓄感知. 我们向受访者提供一个假设的广告, 受访者被告知报价的情况并需要对此评估. 一旦样本完成对广告的评估, 他们需要回答一份与价格显著和依赖纬度的问卷. 然后, 进行操作来确保受访者记得他们被对待的情况. 接着, 我们用一个2x2x2的多变量方差分析和随访单变量的测试来证实研究假设并检测单因子(价格显著)对评估, 购买意图和储蓄感知的影响. 结果表明, 语义和视觉显著的陈述对评估, 购买意图和储蓄感知有显著的主要影响和相互作用. 数值显著的作用显著影响评估和购买意图. 另外, 语言显著主要影响储蓄并作用与评估和购买意图. 最后, 视觉显著的相互作用对评估有显著影响. 本研究的结果的实践启示包括公司在计划基于用折扣来吸引消费者主义的促销时需要考虑. 因为价格陈述对消费者感知有重要的影响, 所以零售商应该考虑那种影响是想要的从而设计有效的折扣陈述. 特别是, 零售商应该用一种使得最终价格计算容易的传统方式来陈述折扣. 这是如此重要的调查方式使得营销者可以提高消费者心算的准确性来提高消费者对价格折扣的反应. 这个有关价格陈述对消费者反之和购买意图的影响的初步研究为未来的研究开启了方向.
