Environmental Sustainability And The Framing Of Formula E Motor Racing In Uk And Flemish Newspapers, Timothy Robeers

Combining a quantitative content analysis with a qualitative framing analysis, this article identified, compared and contrasted frames, and …

Understanding Secret Consumer Purchases And Their Effects On Brands, Jenna M. Peterson Jan 2021

Understanding Secret Consumer Purchases And Their Effects On Brands, Jenna M. Peterson

Honors Theses and Capstones

Relationships created between brands and consumers are very important to establish loyalty and ensure repeat purchases. Our research examines the different ways that brands can help consumers keep their purchases a secret and how these methods help to develop relationships with the consumers. We also examine how the different secrecy methods affect feelings linked to the brand, such as, guilt, satisfaction, and more. We hypothesize that the secrecy methods which lead a consumer to feelings of guilt will directly correlate with feelings of dissatisfaction with their purchase and a higher connection with the brand. We find that although consumers link …
