    No full text
    This paper describes Thailand's experience to date with new technology in rice, namely new high yielding varieties with associated inputs, which forms one part of the "green revolution." First, the historical background in exports, production, and domestic marketing and pricing is presented. Next the significant developments in rice research in Thailand are described, followed by a brief outline of the adoption of new varieties. In the final section, some implications are drawn for future developments, based on the experience gained until now.Crop Production/Industries,

    Hope, risk perception and propensity to indebtedness

    Hope is an important construct in marketing, once it is an antecedent of important marketing variables, such as trust, expectation and satisfaction (MacInnis & de Mello, 2005, Almeida, Mazzon & Botelho, 2007). Specifically, the literature suggests that hope can play an important influence on risk perception (Almeida, 2010, Almeida et al., 2007, Fleming, 2008, MacInnis & de Mello, 2005) and propensity to indebtedness (Fleming, 2008). Thus, this thesis aims to investigate the relations among hope, risk perception related to purchasing and consumption and propensity to indebtedness, by reviewing the existing literature and conducting two empirical researches. The first of them is a laboratory experiment, which accessed hope and risk perception of getting a mortgage loan. The second is a survey, investigating university students’ propensity to get indebted to pay for their university tuition, analyzed through the method of Structural Equations Modeling (SEM). These studies found that hope seems to play an important role on propensity to indebtedness, as higher levels of hope predicted an increase in the propensity to accept the mortgage loan, independent of actual risks, and an increase in the propensity of college students to get indebted to pay for their studies. In addition, the first study suggests that hope may lead to a decrease in risk perception, which, however, has not been confirmed by the second study. Finally, this research offers some methodological contributions, due to the fact that it is the first study using an experimental method to study hope in Brazil and, worldwide, it is the first study investigating the relation among hope, risk perception and propensity to indebtedness, which proved to be important influences in consumer behavio

    A confusão no processo de escolha do consumidor

    Within the literature of Consumer Behavior and Decision Theory there is a considerable body of theory that analyzes negative feelings and negative reactions in the decision making process, concerning high and low involvement products. Several phenomena are identified as negative in the process, such as Consumer Confusion, which comprises three dimensions: i) too much similar information about products, ii) a lot of information about different products and iii) false and ambiguous information. This phenomenon, however, seems to be moderated by a set of variables, such as Involvement, Experience and Time Constraints (moderating the relationship between Consumer Confusion and Purchase Intention). This was identified through in-depth interviews. The results of the interviews enabled the identification of moderating variables, as well as the existence of the phenomenon and its relation to the Purchase Intention. In the second phase of the research, it is assumed that individuals with low Involvement and Time Constraints have a greater propensity to confusion. In Study 2, Involvement and Time Constraint were used as moderators, both manipulated by instruction, and the dependent variables were Purchase Intention and Consumer Confusion. The results of Study 2 allowed the reseracher to infer that there are, indeed, significant differences between the groups, when analyzing the variable Consumer Confusion, but in most groups the Purchase Intention was not significantly different. In Study 3, Experience (strong and weak) and Consumer Confusion were manipulated and the dependent variable was Purchase Intention. The results of Study 3 also allowed to infer that there are significant differences between groups referring to Purchase Intention, when considered low or high confusion as well as strong or weak Experience. In the last phase of the research, consumer strategies for dealing with the phenomenon were the focus of the study. Such strategies often mediate subsequent behavior, for instance, purchase itself. In Study 4, Consumer Confusion was manipulated in two of its dimensions: overload and similarity. It was possible to identifie the preponderance of two strategies: search for additional information and postponement of the purchase decision.Dentro da literatura de Comportamento do Consumidor e Teoria da Decisão existe considerável corpo teórico que analisa sentimentos negativos e reações adversas no processo decisório de compras de produtos de alto e baixo envolvimento. Vários fenômenos são identificados como negativos no processo, principalmente a Confusão do Consumidor, que compreende três dimensões: i) muitas informações similares sobre produtos, ii) muitas informações sobre diferentes produtos e iii) informações falsas e ambíguas. Tal fenômeno, no entanto, parece ser moderado por um conjunto de variáveis, como o Envolvimento, a Experiência e a Restrição de Tempo (moderadoras da relação entre Confusão do Consumidor e Intenção de Compra). Este fato foi identificado através de entrevistas em profundidade. Os resultados das entrevistas permitiram identificar as variáveis moderadoras, assim como a existência do fenômeno e sua relação com a decisão final de compra. Na segunda fase da pesquisa, supõe-se que indivíduos com baixo Envolvimento e Restrição de Tempo possuam uma propensão maior à confusão. No Estudo 2 foram utilizados como moderadores o Envolvimento e a Restrição de Tempo, ambos manipulados por instrução, sendo as variáveis dependentes a Intenção de Compra e a Confusão do Consumidor. Os resultados do Estudo 2 permitiram inferir que existem diferenças significativas entre os grupos, quando analisada a variável Confusão do Consumidor, mas, em alguns grupos, a Intenção de Compra não era significativamente diferente. No Estudo 3 foram manipuladas a Experiência (forte e fraca) e a Confusão do Consumidor, sendo a variável dependente a Intenção de Compra. Os resultados do Estudo 3 também permitiram inferir que existem diferenças significativas entre os grupos na Intenção de compra, quando consideradas baixa ou alta confusão, assim como Experiência forte ou fraca. Na última fase da pesquisa foram destacadas as estratégias dos consumidores para lidar com o fenômeno Confusão do Consumidor. Tais estratégias, muitas vezes, são mediadoras de comportamentos posteriores, como a compra do produto. No Estudo 4 manipulou-se a Confusão do Consumidor em duas de suas dimensões. Foi possível destacar a preponderância da estratégia por busca de informações e postergação da decisão, quando o consumidor se depara com situações confusas

    How national culture on consumers' decision-making styles: a comparative study among Americans, Brazilians, Chinese, and japanese in the purchase of cell phones

    The influence of the national culture on consumer decision-making styles is investigated using a sample of Americans, Brazilians, Chinese, and Japanese consumers who have purchased a cell phone in the past three years. To make the research possible, a survey was used as a method of data collection. It relates Hofstede’s cultural classification typology with Sproles and Kendall’s consumer style inventory (CSI). The multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) results indicate six decision-making styles together with other consumer behavioral characteristics that can be used to distinguish and profile consumers who purchase cell phones. Empirical findings reveal that among Americans, Brazilians, and Japanese; Americans are the most quality conscious, brand conscious, innovative, and hedonistic shoppers; Brazilians are the most loyal, and Japanese, the most confused by overchoice consumers. Conceptual contributions and managerial implications are discussed

    Vergonha e comportamento de consumo de produtos falsificados

    A vergonha é uma emoção autoconsciente e avaliadora que depende de uma série de cognições relacionadas ao self para ser experimentada. Apesar de amplamente estudada na psicologia, no marketing pouco se sabe sobre os antecedentes da vergonha e seu efeito no comportamento do consumidor, em especial no consumo de produtos falsificados. O objetivo geral desse estudo é entender a relação entre vergonha e comportamentos de consumo de produtos falsificados. Dois procedimentos experimentais, numa amostra de 129 pessoas com idade entre 18 e 50 anos, foram realizados para analisar seis hipóteses apresentadas. O primeiro experimento verificou (a) se o risco social percebido alto aumenta a vergonha, (b) se a qualidade da falsificação (alta/baixa) modera a relação entre risco social percebido e vergonha, caso esta relação exista. Os resultados confirmaram o efeito esperado do risco social percebido na vergonha, mas não confirmaram a moderação da qualidade da falsificação nessa relação. Mostraram ainda um efeito inesperado do gênero na vergonha: homens sentem mais vergonha que mulheres no contexto de consumo de falsificados. O segundo experimento verificou (a) se a antecipação da vergonha reduz a intenção de compra de produtos falsificados, (b) se a antecipação de vergonha influencia a atitude (favorável/desfavorável) em relação a produtos falsificados, e (c) se estas duas últimas relações, caso existam, são moderadas pelo custo-benefício do produto. Os resultados não confirmaram a influência da antecipação da vergonha na atitude em relação a falsificados e na intenção de compra de falsificados, mas mostraram que quanto menor o custo-benefício, maior o efeito da antecipação da vergonha na redução da intenção de produtos falsificados. Os resultados mostraram ainda um efeito moderador inesperado da renda na relação entre antecipação da vergonha e intenção de compra de falsificados. A antecipação da vergonha reduz a intenção de compras em consumidores com renda mais alta.Shame is a self-conscious and evaluative emotion that depends on cognitions related to the self to be experienced. Although widely studied in psychology, in marketing little is known about the antecedents of shame and its effect on consumer behavior, especially in the consumption of counterfeit goods. This study aims to understand how shame relates to counterfeit consumption behavior. Two experiments were conducted using a sample of 129 people aged between 18 and 50 to test six hypotheses. The first experiment evaluated (a) if high levels of perceived social risk increases shame, (b) if counterfeiting quality (high / low) moderates the relationship between perceived social risk and shame, in the case this relationship exists. Results confirmed the expected effect of perceived social risk in shame, but did not confirm the moderation effect of counterfeiting quality in this relationship. Results also showed an unexpected effect of gender in shame: in a counterfeiting context, men felt more ashamed than women did. The second experiment evaluated (a) whether anticipation of shame reduces the purchase intention for counterfeit products, (b) whether anticipation of shame influences attitude (favorable / unfavorable) towards counterfeits, and (c) whether these relationships, if any, are moderated by the cost-benefit relationship of the counterfeit product. Results did not confirm the influence of anticipation of shame in attitude towards counterfeits and purchase intention for counterfeits, but showed that the lower the cost-benefit, the greater the anticipation of shame effect in reducing purchase intention for counterfeits. Results also indicated an unexpected moderating effect of family income on the relationship between anticipation of shame and purchase intention for counterfeits. Shame anticipation reduces the purchase intention for counterfeits products when family income is high
