Psychological Factors
Motivation
Perception
Learning
Beliefs and attitudes

A motive (or drive) is a need that is sufficiently pressing to direct the

person to seek satisfaction of the need.
Motivation research refers to qualitative research designed to probe

consumers’ hidden, subconscious motivations.
Figure 5.4 - Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
Perception is the process by which people select,

organize, and interpret information to form a
meaningful picture of the world.
Perceptual Processes
Selective Selective Selective

attention distortion retention
Selective attention is the tendency for people to screen out
most of the information to which they are exposed.
Selective distortion is the tendency for people to interpret

information in a way that will support what they already
believe.
Selective retention is the tendency to remember good points

made about a brand they favor and forget good points about
competing brands.
• Learning is the change in an individual’s behavior
arising from experience and occurs through the
interplay of:
Drives Stimuli Cues Responses
Reinforcement
A belief is a descriptive thought that a person has about
something based on:
• knowledge
• opinion
• faith
An attitude describes a person’s relatively consistent

evaluations, feelings, and tendencies toward an
object or idea.
Types of Buying Decision Behavior
FIGURE: Types of Buying Behavior

Complex Buying Behavior
• Consumers are highly involved in a purchase and perceive significant differences

among brands.
• When the product is expensive, risky, purchased infrequently, and highly self-
expressive.
Marketers of high involvement products must understand the information-

gathering and evaluation behavior of high-involvement consumers.
They need to help buyers learn about product-class attributes and their relative
importance.
They need to differentiate their brand’s features, perhaps by describing the brand’s
benefits using print media with long copy.
Dissonance-reducing buying behavior
It occurs when consumers are highly involved with an expensive, infrequent, or

risky purchase but see little difference among brands.
After the purchase, consumers might experience post-purchase dissonance (after-

sale discomfort)
To counter such dissonance, the marketer’s after-sale communications should

provide evidence and support to help consumers feel good about their brand
choices.
Habitual buying behavior
• Habitual buying behavior occurs under conditions of low-consumer involvement

and little significant brand difference.
• Low-cost, frequently purchased products, for example, take table salt.
• Consumers have little involvement in this product category—they simply go to
the store and reach for a brand.
• Consumers do not form strong attitudes toward a brand; they select the brand
because it is familiar.
• Ad repetition is needed to create brand familiarity
• Acquiring shelf-space to increase visibility
• A little differentiation will give you an extra mileage

Variety-seeking buying behavior
• Situations characterized by low consumer involvement but significant perceived

brand differences.
• Consumers often do a lot of brand switching.
• In most cases, brand switching occurs for the sake of variety rather than because
of dissatisfaction.
• Create switching barriers:
- Contractual agreement
- Credits
- Infrastructural development (building outlets, neon-sign etc.)
- Equipment providing / leasing
The Buyer Decision Process
FIGURE: Buyer Decision Process

Need Recognition
Need recognition is the first stage of the buyer

decision process, in which the consumer
recognizes a problem or need triggered by:
• Internal stimuli
• External stimuli
Information Search
Information search is the stage of the buyer

decision process in which the consumer is
motivated to search for more information.
•Sources of information:
• Personal sources
• Commercial sources
• Public sources
• Experiential sources
Evaluation of Alternatives
Alternative evaluation is the stage of the buyer

decision process in which the consumer uses
information to evaluate alternative brands in the
choice set.
Purchase Decision
Purchase decision is the buyer’s decision about

which brand to purchase.
• The purchase intention may not be the purchase

decision due to:
• Attitudes of others
• Unexpected situational factors
Postpurchase Behavior
Postpurchase behavior is the stage of the buyer

decision process in which consumers take
further action after purchase, based on their
satisfaction or dissatisfaction.
Postpurchase Behavior
Cognitive dissonance is
buyer discomfort caused
by postpurchase conflict.
