Perception
Chapter
8
2
Objectives
  • Explain the relationship between perceptions and
    sensations experienced through the classic five
    sensory receptors
  • Describe how sensory thresholds are used by
    marketers, including marketing applications of
    Webers law.
  • Outline the process through which our sensory
    systems select, organize, and interpret stimuli,
    including preattentive processing, perceptual
    selection, organization and categorization,
    interpretation, and elaboration.
  • Describe some basic tools consumers use in
    primitive categorization

3
Perception
  • Perception process of giving meaning to sensory
    stimuli
  • Phenomenal absolutism
  • All others perceive the situation as you do
  • GET OVER IT!

4
Perception is Subjective
  • Study through
  • Sensory thresholds
  • Perceptual processes

5
Influencing Perceptions
  • Differential Threshold
  • Just Noticeable Difference (JND)
  • Webers Law
  • As the intensity of a stimulus increases, the
    ability to detect a difference between levels
    decreases
  • Implications for
  • Pricing
  • Product
  • Promotion
  • Place

6
Discuss
  • A retailer of computer goods is puzzled by
    consumers responses to her recent fall sale.
    There was only one purchase of the 3000 model
    (sale priced at 2750). The 1000 model (sale
    priced at 875), despite having only half the
    250 savings offered by the more expensive model,
    sold out. How can you explain these results?

8
Principles of Exposure (preattentive processing)
  • Absolute (or lower) threshold
  • Subliminal perception

9
Sensation and Sensory Thresholds
  • People detect stimuli through a variety of
    sensory receptors--the organs of perception.

Consumer Chronicles 8.4Some Approximate
Detection Threshold Values
  • Sense Detection
  • Modality Threshold
  • Light A candle flame seen at 30 miles or a
    dark clear night.
  • Sound The tick of a watch under quiet
    conditions at 20 feet.
  • Taste One teaspoon of sugar in two gallons of
    water.
  • Smell One drop of perfume diffused into the
    entire volume of a three-room apartment.
  • Touch The wing of a bee falling on your back
    from a distance of one centimeter.

Problems to Overcome to Gain Exposure
  • Selective exposure
  • Message placement and position
  • Store and shelf placement
  • Overexposure
  • Habituation

12
One Solution to Overcome Exposure Problems
  • Man Sells Body Ad Tattoos on eBay, Industry Yawns
  • In the so over category, Joe Tamargo has joined
    the legions of odd soles selling off their bodies
    on eBay as moving billboards. We're not even
    going to bother summing up recent stories on the
    trend. There everywhere and easy to find. Wait
    til you hear the one about the pregnant woman who
    is selling her tummy to advertisers on eBay.

Measuring Exposure
  • Examples
  • SMRB data
  • Neilsen Television Index
  • Arbitron radio diaries
  • Internet (How?)

14
Attention (or selection)
  • Depends on
  • personal relevance (i.e., involvement)
  • and
  • the nature of the stimulus
  • May be involuntary if surprising or a contrast to
    other elements
  • Basic principles
  • Intensity (how much?) and direction (thinking
    what?)
  • Goal for marketers
  • Get in evoked set

15
Common Tactics Used to Get Attention
  • Tactic Example
  • Make a connection
  • Color
  • Location
  • Position
  • Surprise
  • Distinctiveness
  • Placement in less
  • cluttered environments

16
Comprehension
  • Perceptual Organization
  • How people see or hear patterns
  • e.g., closure, figure ground, etc.)
  • Categorization
  • Grouping products into categories
  • Based upon prior knowledge about categories
  • Determines products that will be compared
  • Managerial implications
  • Positioning/repositioning
  • Defining competitors
  • Locating products

Perceptual Inference in Comprehension
  • Perceptual Inferences
  • Interpretations that go beyond the information
    given.
  • Inferences are influenced by
  • Context, goals, prior knowledge, personal
    experiences
  • Marketing Implications
  • brand extensions
  • priming

What flavor is this ice cream cone?
19
Comprehension -- 2
  • Interpretation and Elaboration
  • Schemas
  • Set of beliefs and feelings about a stimuli
  • Scripts
  • Knowledge of sequence of actions associated with
    a stimuli
  • Our expectations influence our interpretations
  • Color affects how food tastes MMs)

20
Comprehension -- 3
  • Interpretation and Elaboration
  • Elaboration
  • High leads to problem-solving, counterarguing,
    etc.
  • Low leads to simple recognition
  • The extent of elaboration depends on the viewers
    involvement with the product
  • Boomerang effect -- attitude change is opposite
    that advocated in the persuasive message

21
Perceptual Judgments and Marketing Strategies
  • Perceived Quality
  • the consumers evaluative judgment about an
    entitys overall excellence or superiority in
    providing desired benefits.
  • SERVQUAL
  • Predictive Value
  • the degree to which consumers associate a given
    cue with product quality, the confidence value of
    a cue, and the degree to which consumers have
    confidence in their ability to use and judge the
    cue accurately
  • extrinsic cues - price, brand name, packaging,
    store name, etc.
  • intrinsic cues - taste, texture, aroma, etc.

22
Product-Country Image Effects
  • Product-Country image effects reflect consumers
    use of country of origin or country of
    manufacture as a cue to infer beliefs about
    product attributes.
  • Product-Country image (PCI) is a schematic mental
    representation of a countrys people, products,
    culture, and national symbols.
  • Consumer voting captures the normative dimension
    of product-country images. By deciding to
    purchase or avoid a countrys products, consumers
    vote for or against the policies of its
    government.
