It’s a relationship we have to products
Stimulus specific (i.e. product/ brand/ service specific)
Situationally specific

The same product can be treated by different people with different levels of involvement
The same person at different times and in different situations could have different involvement levels for the same product
Involvement can be an important determinant in the motivation of consumers
