attribution analysis of luxury brands an investigation into consumer brand congruence through conspicuous consumption
Journal of Business Research, 2020Co-Authors: Isaac Jacob, Monica Khanna, Krupa A RaiAbstract:Abstract Brands and their personalities constitute the basis upon which consumers identify and bond with various products or services. This study focuses on the factors influencing congruity between consumers' self-image and brand image for luxury brands in transitional economies like India. This study empirically evaluates a hypothesized theoretical framework in order to identify and understand the following key variables in each factor of consumer-brand congruence in the luxury brand category: brand perception, brand expectation, dimensions of brand image (mystery, Sensuality, and intimacy), brand love, and brand respect. This study also discusses how the brand image dimensions relate to brand love and brand respect. A structural model is developed to analyze the relationship between these factors. The findings establish the relationship between consumers and brands through various attributes of luxury brand image and consumer self-image.

The effect of hysterectomy and/or oophorectomy on sexual satisfaction
'Informa UK Limited', 2011Co-Authors: Sozeri-varma G, Kalkan-oguzhanoglu N, Karadag F, Ozdel OAbstract:Methods aEuro integral Forty sexually active women underwent a hysterectomy and/or oophorectomy, for benign gynecological diseases. Patients were interviewed 15 days prior to their operation and again in the 3rd and 6th months after the surgical procedure. Depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms and sexual satisfaction were measured by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale, the Hamilton Anxiety Scale and the Golombock Rust Inventory of Sexual Satisfaction (GRISS), respectively. Repeated-measures analyses of variance (ANOVA) examined alterations in anxiety, depression and sexual satisfaction. Independent t-test and Mann--Whitney U tests compared the numerical data.Results aEuro integral The women had mild depressive symptoms before the surgery; however, these symptoms lessened between 3 and 6 months after the surgery. Similarly, the level of anxiety symptoms decreased during the postoperative period. Based on the GRISS cut-off point, it was found that the patients had problems in the sub-dimensions of frequency, communication, and avoidance in the pre-operative period. This pre-existing sexual dissatisfaction continued after the surgery, and Sensuality and anorgasmia problems increased. Satisfaction, Sensuality, avoidance and anorgasmia GRISS scores were significantly higher after the operation than before. Therefore, the patients' sexual satisfaction was decreased after the operation.Conclusions aEuro integral Patients were dissatisfied with frequency and communication, and they had high levels of avoidance before operation. In the postoperative period, sexual dissatisfaction increased. Although depression and anxiety decreased after the operation, we found that hysterectomy and/or oophorectomy had negative effects on sexual satisfaction

personality driven luxury brand management
Journal of Brand Management, 2018Co-Authors: Klaus Heine, Glyn Atwal, Sandrine Crenerricard, Michel PhanAbstract:This paper combines the brand personality and brand anthropomorphization concepts and introduces the notion of personality-driven brand management especially for the context of luxury branding. A central part of this paper is a study about the major dimensions of luxury brand personality. Results suggest that there exist five distinct luxury personality dimensions including tradition, modesty, elitism, eccentricity and Sensuality. They help brand managers to develop distinct brand personalities by encouraging them to decide between contrasting traits. After presenting the major strategies to bring a luxury brand personality alive, the paper discusses the benefits of personality-based brand management and concludes with some major lessons learned.
