    This document discusses various theories of consumer learning, including: 1. Behavioral learning theories like classical conditioning, where consumers learn associations between stimuli, and instrumental conditioning, where consumers learn through reinforcement. 2. Cognitive learning theories, which focus on how consumers solve problems and process information, storing it in memory. 3. Involvement theory, which proposes consumers' level of involvement in a purchase influences the type and depth of information processing. High involvement leads to central route processing while low involvement uses peripheral cues. 4. The document provides examples of how these learning concepts can be applied in marketing, such as using repetition, stimulus generalization and discrimination in classical conditioning strategies.

    Consumer Learning

    7-1

    The Importance of Consumer Learning


    Why consumer learning is important? How does a consumer learn about a product?

    7-2

    Importance of Learning
    Marketers must teach consumers:
    where to buy how to use how to maintain how to dispose of products

    7-3

    Learning Theories
    Behavioral Theories: Theories based on the premise that learning takes place as the result of observable responses to external stimuli. Also known as stimulus response theory.
    7-4

    Cognitive Theories: A theory of learning based on mental information processing, often in response to problem solving.

    Consumer Learning

    A process by which individuals acquire the purchase and consumption knowledge and experience that they apply to future related behavior.

    7-5

    Learning Processes
    Intentional: Incidental: learning acquired as learning acquired a result of a careful by accident or search for without much effort information

    7-6

    Behavioral Learning Theories


    Classical Conditioning Instrumental Conditioning Modeling or Observational Learning

    7-7

    Classical Conditioning

    A behavioral learning theory according to which a stimulus is paired with another stimulus that elicits a known response that serves to produce the same response when used alone.

    7-11

    Neo-Pavlovian Conditioning
    Repeated Pairings of CS and US A CS and US that Logically Belong to Each Other A CS that is Novel and Unfamiliar A US that is Biologically or Symbolically Salient

    7-12

    Strategic Applications of Classical Conditioning


    Repetition Stimulus Generalization Stimulus Discrimination

    7-13

    Repetition
    Repetition increases strength of associations and slows forgetting but over time may result in wearout. Cosmetic variations reduce satiation.eg. HSBC Bank Theme of Different people, Different views The Worlds local bank (Teenager boys, Mother & daughter, Exercise posture) Substantive variations
    7-14

    Three-Hit Theory
    Repetition is the basis for the idea that three exposures to an ad are necessary for the ad to be effective The number of actual repetitions to equal three exposures is in question.

    7-15

    Stimulus Generalization

    The inability to perceive differences between slightly dissimilar stimuli.

    7-16

    Stimulus Generalization and Marketing


    Product Line, Form and Category Extensions (Dettol, Vicks, Lux, Fair & Lovely) Family Branding (Tata salt to Tata Indica) Licensing (Mc Donalds, Hallmark, Archies) Generalizing Usage Situations (Asian Paints, Cadburys, Harpic, Burnol)
    7-17

    Stimulus Discrimination

    The ability to select a specific stimulus from among similar stimuli because of perceived differences.
    Positioning

    Differentiation eg LG Golden eye, Nestles Kit Kat


    7-18

    Instrumental (Operant) Conditioning

    A behavioral theory of learning based on a trial-and-error process, with habits forced as the result of positive experiences (reinforcement) resulting from certain responses or behaviors.

    7-19

    Stimulus Situation
    (Need goodlooking jeans)

    Try Brand D
    Repeat Behavior

    Reward Perfect fit

    7-20

    Instrumental Conditioning
    Consumers learn by means of trial and error process in which some purchase behaviors result in more favorable outcomes (rewards) than other purchase behaviors. A favorable experience is instrumental in teaching the individual to repeat a specific behavior.
    7-21

    Instrumental Conditioning and Marketing


    Customer Satisfaction Reinforcement Schedules - Continuous/Total reinforcement - Systematic/Fixed interval - Random/Variable reinforcement
    Shaping (Test drive) (Reinforcement before behaviour takes place)

    Massed versus Distributed Learning


    7-22

    Reinforcement
    Negative Positive Reinforcement: Reinforcement: Positive outcomes that Unpleasant or negative outcomes that serve to strengthen the likelihood of a specific encourage a specific behavior (Fear appeals) response Example: Ad showing Example: Ad showing wrinkled skin as beautiful hair as a reinforcement to buy reinforcement to buy skin cream (Garnier) shampoo (Clinic Plus)
    7-23

    Other Concepts in Reinforcement


    Extinction
    Combat with consumer satisfaction

    Forgetting
    Combat with repetition

    7-24

    Observational Learning

    7-25

    A process by which individuals observe the behavior of others, and consequences of such behavior. Also known as modeling or vicarious learning. Eg Use of models or experts or common man appeals (Pepsodent)

    Cognitive learning theory

    7-26

    Cognitive Learning Theory

    Holds that the kind of learning most characteristic of human beings is problem solving, which enables individuals to gain some control over their environment.

    7-27

    Information Processing

    A cognitive theory of human learning patterned after computer information processing that focuses on how information is stored in human memory and how it is retrieved.

    Involvement Theory

    A theory of consumer learning which postulates that consumers engage in a range of information processing activity from extensive to limited problem solving, depending on the relevance of the purchase.

    Issues in Involvement Theory


    Involvement Theory and Media Strategy Involvement Theory and Consumer Relevance Central and Peripheral Routes to Persuasion Measures of Involvement Personal Inventories

    7-36

    Central and Peripheral Routes to Persuasion

    A theory that proposes that highly involved consumers are best reached through ads that focus on the specific attributes of the product (the central route) while uninvolved consumers can be attracted through peripheral advertising cues such as the model or the setting (the peripheral route).

    7-37

    Measures of Consumer Learning


    Recognition and Recall Measures
    Aided and Unaided Recall

    Cognitive Responses to Advertising Comprehension, copytesting Attitudinal and Behavioral Measures of Brand Loyalty
