Effects Of Storytelling In Advertising On Consumers` Empathy, Myung Jin Park, Doo Hee Lee

Asia Marketing Journal

Differentiated positioning becomes increasingly difficult when brand salience weakens. Also, the daily increase in new media use and information load has led to a social climate that regards advertising stimuli as spamming. For these reasons, the focus of advertisement-related communication is shifting from persuading consumers through the direct delivery of information to an emphasis on appealing to their emotions using matching stimuli to enhance persuasion effects. Recently, both academia and industry have increasingly shown an interest in storytelling methods that can generate positive emotional responses and attitude changes by arousing consumers` narrative processing. The purpose of storytelling is to elicit …

The Effect Of Regulatory Focus On The Link Between Purchase Behavior And Redemption Behavior, Ji Yoon Kim Jan 2014

The Effect Of Regulatory Focus On The Link Between Purchase Behavior And Redemption Behavior, Ji Yoon Kim

Asia Marketing Journal

Previous research on loyalty program has verified the factors that influence redemption behavior and the understanding of the mechanism of redemption behavior with academic and practical implications. However, these research has not proven boundary conditions in which the phenomena can be strengthened or weakened? that is, the moderating effect remains unclear. The inclusion of moderating variables can provide a more extensive understanding of the mechanism of this behavior from academic and managerial perspectives alike. Therefore, this current research proposes regulatory focus as a moderating variable, which has received scarce attention in the study of loyalty program behavior, especially individual characteristic …

Exploring The Role Of Preference Heterogeneity And Causal Attribution In Online Ratings Dynamics, Wu Jin Chu, Min Jung Roh

Asia Marketing Journal

This study investigates when and how disagreements in online customer ratings prompt more favorable product evaluations. Among the three metrics of volume, valence, and variance that feature in the research on online customer ratings, volume and valence have exhibited consistently positive patterns in their effects on product sales or evaluations (e.g., Dellarocas, Zhang, and Awad 2007; Liu 2006). Ratings variance, or the degree of disagreement among reviewers, however, has shown rather mixed results, with some studies reporting positive effects on product sales (e.g., Clement, Proppe, and Rott 2007) while others finding negative effects on product evaluations (e.g., Zhu and Zhang …


Is Corporate Rebranding A Double-Edged Sword? Consumers` Ambivalence Towards Corporate Rebranding Of Familiar Brands, Grace Ing Phang Jan 2014

Is Corporate Rebranding A Double-Edged Sword? Consumers` Ambivalence Towards Corporate Rebranding Of Familiar Brands, Grace Ing Phang

Asia Marketing Journal

Corporate rebranding has been evident in the qualitative corporate rebranding studies as an imposed organizational change that induces mixed reactions and ambivalent attitudes among consumers. Corporate rebranding for the established and familiar corporate brands leads to more ambivalent attitudes as these companies represent larger targets for disparaging information. Consumers are found to hold both positive and negative reactions toward companies and brands that they are familiar with. Nevertheless, the imposed change assumption and ambivalent attitude, in particular corporate rebranding, have never been widely explored in the quantitative corporate rebranding studies. This paper aims to provide a comprehensive empirical examination of …

How Much Change Is Optimal When A Brand Is Newly Rebranded?, Kyoung Hee Chu, Doo Hee Lee, Min Sun Yeu, Park

Asia Marketing Journal

There are many cases of rebranding and its numbers are growing. However, rebranding is still under research in the academic field, and there is no guideline on the effective way to change brand name. The objective of this paper is to integrate two inconsistent predictions from categorization theory and schema incongruity theory: a negative linear relationship (categorization theory) versus an inverted-U-shape relationship (schema incongruity theory) between brand name incongruity and consumer evaluation into one framework. Specifically, this study examines how the effect of incongruity between an existing brand name and a new brand name (hereafter called “brand name incongruity”) on …

The instrument is generalizable across academic settings and is shown to be sensitive to differences across varied course coverage and learning activities. The instrument is parsimonious and offers a high reliability coefficient.
