33
perception
process of selecting, organising, and interpreting information to make sense of it.
34
sensation
immediate response of our sensory receptors to basic stimuli such as light, colour, odour, and texture.
35
study of perception
focuses on what we add to raw sensations to give the meaning.
36
experimental marketing
seeks opportunities to connect with consumers by engaging in a sensory way and drawing on personal.
37
sensory marketing - visual
marketers rely heavily on visual elements in advertising, store design, and packaging
38
sensory marketing - smell
odours can stir emotions, create a calming feeling and improved consumer memory. Some responses to scents result from early associations that call up a good or bad feelings.
39
sensory marketing - sound
sounds affects people's feelings and behaviours.
background music creates desired moods.
advertising jingles create brand awareness.
40
touch
encouraging shoppers to touch a product encourages them to image they own it, where people value things more highly if they own it.
41
taste
taste receptors contribute to our experience of many products.
42
subliminal perception
occurs when the stimulus is below the level of the consumer's awareness.
43
attention
the extent to which processing activity is devoted to a particular stimulus.
44
perceptual selection
people notice a small portion of the stimuli to which they are exposed.
consumers are often in a state of sensory overload, exposed to far more information than they can or are willing to receive.
45
personal selection factors
experience.
perceptual vigilance.
perceptual defence.
adaptation.
46
stimulus selection factors
size, colour, position, novelty.
47
interpretation
the meaning that we assign sensory stimuli.
48
Gestalt perceptual principles
ensures that the perceiver organises a lot of separate images into a familiar image.
49
positioning strategy
a fundamental part of a company's marketing efforts as it uses elements of the marketing mix to influence the consumer's interpretation of its meaning.
50
a message has 3 components:
object - the product that focuses the message.
sign - the sensory image that represents the intended meanings of the object (icon, index, symbol).
interpretant - the meaning derived from a sign to symbol.
51
motivation
the process that leads people to behave as they do.
once a need has been activated, a state of tension exists that drives the consumer to attempt to reduce or eliminate the need.
52
goal
the end state that is desired by the consumer.
53
drive
degree of arousal present due to a discrepancy between the consumer's present state and some ideal state.
54

55
extrinsic motivation
motivated by external influences, or by a goal that is separate from ourselves.

to attain personal accomplish.
57
need for affiliation
to be in the company of others.
58
need for power
to control one's environment
59
need for uniqueness
to assert one's individual identity.
60
Maslow's hierarchy of needs
hierarchy made up of biogenic and psychogenic needs, the order of development is fixed.
physiological > safety > belongingness > ego needs > self-actualisation
one of the most influential theories for motivation in marketing.
61
brand equity
when a brand has strong positive association in a consumer's memory and commands loyalty.
(classical conditioning)
62
behavioural learning theories
learning takes place as a result of responses to external events.
people's experiences are shaped by feedback they receive as they go through life.
63
types of learning theories
classical conditioning
| instrumental or operational conditioning
64
classical conditioning
occurs when a stimulus that elicits a response is paired with another stimulus that initially does not elicit a response on its own. over time this second stimulus causes. similar response because it is associated with the first stimulus.
more likely to occur after repetition, as repetition increases the strengths of the associations.
65
marketing applications of classical conditioning principles
used to promote aspects of products through pairing images, people or sensory stimulation. the condition stimulus should be presented prior to the unconditioned stimulus.
creating positive associations by marketing.
applications of repetition.
applications of stimulus generalisation.
applications of stimulus discrimination
66
instrumental or operant conditioning
occurs as the individual learns to perform behaviours that produce positive outcomes and avoid behaviours that yield negative outcomes.
- positive reinforcements (rewards)
- negative reinforcement
- punishment
- extinction
67
frequency marketing
reinforces regular purchases bye giving them reward with values that increase along with the amount purchased (frequent flyer programs, crown casino loyalty card)
68
gamification
application of game elements such as points, competition and rules to encourage engagement with a brand, product or organisation
69
cognitive learning theory
this theory stresses the importance of internal mental processes.
it is about thinking and processing.
this perspective acknowledges people as problem-solvers who actively use information from the world around them, then uses that info to take action.
70
environmental approach,
| people learn based on progressing through 3 stages:
```
inactive representation (action-based).
iconic representation (image-based).
symbolic representation (language-based).
```
71
maturation approach
| Piaget
we respond to a situation based on our existing knowledge.
when there is no schemata, or plan for a particular situation, we modify our behaviour and learn from the situation we are in.
*assimilation*
72
assimilation
process where we respond to the situation based upon existing knowledge.
73
observational learning
occurs when we watch the actions of others and note the reinforcement they receive for their behaviours, so learning occurs as a result of vicarious rather than direct experience.
74
marketing applications of cognitive learning principles
- marketers can reinforce or punish consumers by showing them what happens to desirable model who do or do not use their products.
- consumers' evaluations of models are not limited to stimulus-response connections.
- attractiveness can be based on several components (e.g., attractiveness, expertise and similarity to the evaluator).
75
memory
a process of acquiring and storing information over time so that it will be available when needed.
76
stages of memory
encoding - information entered in a recognisable way.
storage - knowledge integrated into what is already in memory and warehoused.
retrieval - the person accesses the desired information.
77
sensory meaning
a consumer may process a stimulus simply in terms of its sensory meaning (colour, shape), which is why we use these in our marketing messages.
78
semantic meaning
symbolic associations, such as the idea that rich people drink champagne or that fashionable men wear earrings.
79
memory systems
sensory memory
short-term memory
long-term memory
80
sensory memory
very temporary storage of information we receive from our senses.
81
short-term memory
```
limited period of time and limited capacity.
working memory (holds memory we are currently processing).
```
82
long-term memory
can retain information for a long period of time.
in order for information to enter the LTM, elaborative rehearsal is required. this process involves thinking about the meaning of a stimulus and relating it to information already in memory.
83
chunking
when information is stored by combining small pieces into larger ones.
84
factors influencing retrieval of information for purchase decisions.
```
physiological factors (age).
situational factors (brand, viewing environment).
```
85
personality
a person's unique psychological make-up and how it consistently influences the way a person responds to their environment.

trusted brands,
sociable brands,
exciting brands,

91
theory of Cognitive Dissonance
a state of tension occurs when beliefs or behaviours conflict with one another (aka buyer's remorse).
92
cognitive dissonance reduction
process by which people are motivated to reduce tension between beliefs or behaviours and thus eliminate tension (e.g., wearing a hat when getting a bad haircut).
93
motivational conflicts
approach-approach
approach-avoid
avoid-avoid
