Popis: | Meaning is important in attitude and perception research. Consumers can assign meanings to product attributes that do not conform to standard usage or have not been considered by the researcher, and a misunderstanding of that meaning can result in ineffective marketing strategy. This paper explores different levels of meaning and, through empirical example, presents a methodology for investigating the psychological meaning of attributes. Alternative methodologies for studying psychological meaning are discussed, and techniques for investigating the strategic operationalization of empirical semantic meaning results are illustrated using a mass transit study. |
