Perceived product instrumentality: the process of scale purification and validation
Authors: Triki Abdelfattah , Wesson David 
Published: July 2006

AbstractPerceived product instrumentality (PPI) is a new construct that is proposed as a key process component of a general model of family purchasing behaviour. PPI reflects the degree to which consumers, apprehended as actors of social roles, deem a product to be helpful, facilitative of role performance, compatible with role identity and congruent with the self‐concept.The objective of this paper is threefold: (1) assess the PPI unidimensionality and reliability; (2) purify the PPI scale, and (3) assess its validity. First, a pilot survey was administered to a convenience sample of men and women, who filled in four identical lists of 33 items tapping their attitudes towards durables, and exploratory factor analysis was conducted on each set to explore the overall pattern of the items relationships. Five try‐out pools of different sizes (33, 28, 15, 13 and 9 items) were involved in the analysis. The 15‐item scale was retained.Secondly, a large‐scale survey was administered to 500 couples as part of an extensive research involving comprehensive model testing. Exploratory factor analysis was conducted on the whole sample for reliability and unidimensionality assessment. At times, the analysis is done on men's and women's sub‐samples separately in order to account for eventual differences among both populations.Thirdly, confirmatory factor was conducted, splitting the sample into two random halves: the generation sample and the validation sample. The first half served for the PPI scales purification. In this case, PPI was posited as the latent variable and the scale items were posited as the manifest ones. The second served to validate the PPI theory in a system's framework: PPI was posited as a latent dependent variable while other role orientations variables were posited as latent independent variables.

Decision resource consultancy: a convergence of disciplines that aid consumer marketing
Authors: Bailey Lawrence F. 
Published: July 2006

AbstractWhen companies recognise the limitations of seat‐of‐pants decision making, it is not always immediately clear where to turn in order to procure the information and advice that can result in better business decisions. The chosen resource might be a research agency (assumed to be fast‐acting); a management consultancy (likely to be reassuringly expensive); or sources in the academic world (popularly seen as ‘leading‐edge’). What is delivered will depend on the type of supplier chosen: so far, each of these resources has developed in isolation, with its own assumptions, methods and codes of conduct.Nowhere is this more starkly seen than among providers of qualitative research, the discipline that gave birth to focus groups and marketing‐oriented depth interviews. Depending on the supplier, the client may be provided with research that is process‐based, skills‐based or knowledge‐based. The design, practice and analysis of the research will differ accordingly.In this paper, it is argued that the time has come to establish a new form of business consultancy which understands the strengths and weaknesses of these three traditional approaches, which can offer research brokerage that makes available the most appropriate techniques, and which can bring together the distinctive offerings of market‐research agencies, universities and management consultancies as a total resource in helping clients to make optimal decisions. An acceptance of new kinds of professional alliances will be required, as ‘meta‐consultants’ look for cooperation, not competition, among those who are based in each of these three domains.

Family decision at the turn of the century: has the changing structure of households impacted the family decision‐making process?
Authors: Belch Michael A. , Willis Laura A. 
Published: July 2006

AbstractEvaluation of husbands' and wives' influence in family decision making is heavily reliant on studies conducted in the 1970s and 1980s. Since that time, profound changes have occurred in the American family. These changes may have affected the nature of decision making in the household. To examine the degree to which earlier findings are still generalisable today, hypotheses are developed and tested with a contemporary sample of 458 men and women. Results suggest that there have been significant changes in the roles assumed in the family decision‐making process, with the wife gaining more influence in all decision areas. The results indicate that marketers must re‐examine their marketing strategies for some products and/or services. Possible theoretical explanations are suggested to explain why these changes may have occurred. Copyright © 2002 Henry Stewart Publications.
The importance of ethnicity as a segmentation criterion: the case of the Pakistani consumers' attitude towards direct mail compared with the indigenous population
Authors: Chudry Farooq , Pallister John 
Published: July 2006

AbstractThe UK is a multicultural society consisting of a multitude of ethnicities. The Pakistani community in the UK represents nearly 500,000 people and is the second largest ethnic group. There is no evidence of any previous published research investigating the Pakistani community's attitude towards direct mail. Marketing practitioners, it appears, are reticent about engaging in research into attitudes of different ethnic groups fearful, perhaps, of being labelled racist. The authors feel that since segmentation is frequently based on sex, age, weight etc., ethnicity, too, should be open to the same usage.An empirical approach to the research was employed utilising a mail questionnaire, a subset of Evans et al. (1998) research, with 88 Pakistani respondents. A great many statistically significant differences between Evans et al.'s model and the authors' model were discovered. The research concludes by confirming that attitudes towards direct mail, vary considerably between the indigenous and the Pakistani communities. Marketers are advised not only to consider ethnic groups as a viable segmentation opportunity but also because, on the evidence of this research, the Pakistani group wish to be targeted according to their ethnicity.

Emotion and environment: a test of the behavioural perspective model in a Latin American context
Authors: Soriano Mirella Yani , Foxall Gordon R. , Pearson Gordon J. 
Published: July 2006

AbstractAn evaluation of the Behavioural Perspective Model of consumer choice based on predictions derived from Mehrabian and Russell's theory of emotional responses to environmental stimuli, is reported. The study required 254 Venezuelan consumers to rate descriptions of consumer situations based on the situational categories identified by the model in terms of pleasure, arousal and dominance, and also according to behavioural variables relating, for example, to preference for spending time in the situation and desire to affiliate. Discriminant analysis of the responses supports the model as a predictive device, and both corroborates and extends findings from a study of English consumers. Implications are drawn for consumer theory and research. Copyright © 2002 Henry Stewart Publications.
