Study Notes
Market and Consumer Psychology
- The presentation is about perennial problems of cross-cultural marketing research practices.
- The presenter discusses the importance of cultural sensitivity in cross-cultural business research.
- A key point is that culture is becoming a leading theory in international marketing.
Cultural Sensitivity
- Cheryl Nakata, a professor of marketing, highlighted that publications about culture are increasing.
- This suggests that culture is becoming a leading theory in international marketing.
- The presentation gives examples of marketing blunders caused by a lack of cultural sensitivity. (e.g., KFC in China, Pepsi in China, Fiat ad with R. Gere, United Airlines (white flowers) and iPhone 7).
Today's Agenda
- The agenda includes what cross-cultural research is, its importance and development in marketing research, and perennial problems in cross-cultural marketing research with a study.
- Further, it outlines directions for cross-cultural marketing research practices.
A Call for Further Research
- Multinational companies spend billions globally on marketing.
- Some funding is wasted, harming reputations due to cultural or linguistic errors.
- The importance and need for effective marketing to varied ethnic and subcultural groups is vital in emerging and existing markets.
Some Bad Examples: Oops!
- KFC in China
- Pepsi in China
- A Fiat ad with actor R. Gere
- United Airlines (white flowers)
- iPhone 7
Question
- The presenter posed questions to the audience: Have you ever encountered such examples, and why did it happen?
Why do Cross-Cultural Research?
- Globalization increases the importance of cross-cultural research.
- It's a distinct field with its own phenomena, methods, and theories.
- Research facilitates understanding and learning between cultures.
What is Cross-Cultural Research?
- It helps understand how and why cultural and ethnic factors mask, mediate, or modify common aspects of human thought and behavior.
- It is conducted across nations or culture groups
- It aims to systematically compare behavioral and cognitive similarities and differences between cultures.
- It aims to identify the role of culture.
- It investigates empirical evidence for the incidence, distributions, and causes of cultural variation.
- It aims to test and document the universality and generality of methods, theories and concepts.
- It encourages the development of adequate methodologies, theories and concepts.
Cross Cultural Research: A Meta-Analysis
- Jensen-Lampiri (2017) reviewed existing reviews on cross-cultural business research practices.
- It identified advances and perennial problems.
Methodology of Jensen-Lampiri (2017)
- A meta-analysis—review of reviews— was conducted.
- A four-stage process was used.
- Grounded theory was used for analysis, identifying seven categories.
"The Making-of" 4-Stages-Process for a Systematic Meta-Analysis
- The stages for systematic meta-analysis includes defining the research area and time frame, selecting publication outlets, identifying publications, strategies used for coding and data analysis.
Selected Publication Outlets
- A list of journals used in the meta-analysis.
- Several journals are listed, organized by disciplines.
- Specific journals, like the Academy of Management Journal, and others are included in the analysis.
Identification of Review Publications
- Research in ISI Web of Knowledge and EBSCO search engines used.
- Key words (e.g., cross-cultural research, international research, comparative research) were used to identify relevant publications.
- 187 publications were initially identified from the searches.
- Further, 32 publications were identified from references and citations.
- Publications excluded if they didn't focus on straightforward cross-cultural processes or lack a clear disciplinary focus.
- The final sample contained 78 publications.
Reviews on Cross-Cultural CB Studies
- Several academic papers relating to cross-cultural marketing and consumer behavior published between 1950 and 2010 were summarized.
- Cross-cultural publication trends/themes are shown.
Analysis using Grounded Theory
- Grounded theory was used to analyze the reviewed publications.
- It involves allowing concepts to emerge during the analytical process, rather than being derived a priori.
- This approach aligns with the evolutionary nature of scientific research.
Coding in Grounded Theory
- Coding in grounded theory has three stages: open coding, axial coding, selective coding.
Example of a Coding Procedure
- Tables demonstrating how research is coded by themes.
Analysis of Practices: Finding categories
- The study analyzes research practices by examining research strategies, structure of the research team, theoretical foundations, and culture specifications.
Research Strategies (1960s to Date)
- This section presents a dominance of the "etic paradigm" and "ethnocentrism" across studies.
- This approach assumes universal values and beliefs guide behavior.
###Two Approaches of Modeling CCCB (Cultural Consumption, Culture, and Consumer Behavior)
- The Cultural Syndromes, or Dimensional approach, suggests that cultural differences could be explained by universal psychological dimensions.
- The Dynamic Constructivist Theory of Culture approach proposes that culture is stored in memory as an associative network that guides behavior based on salience.
Question: Behavioral Intention Models
- Behavioral intention models often assume attitudes and expectations influence intentions.
- The question posed is whether this holds cross-culturally and whether assumptions about consumer behavior intentions hold across cultures.
Structure and Role of Research Teams
- The analysis demonstrates a dominance of single-country research teams compared to those with cross-cultural research, implying a possible lack of cross-national team collaborations.
Potential Advantages of Cross-Cultural Research Teams
- The presenter raises questions about the benefits of having teams that include natives from the investigated cultures in consumer research. What are the potential advantages?
Literature
- List of academic sources used in the analysis.
