Smeal College of Business A METHODOLOGY FOR IDENTIFYING UNOBSERVED CATEGORIES WHEN CONSUMERS ASSIGN BRANDS TO MULTIPLE CATEGORIES A Dissertation in Business Administration by Simon Blanchard 2011 Simon Blanchard Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2011 ii The dissertation of Simon Blanchard was reviewed and approved* by the following: Wayne S. DeSarbo Professor of Marketing Dissertation Co-Advisor Co-Chair of Committee Margaret G. Meloy Associate Professor of Marketing Dissertation Co-Advisor Co-Chair of Committee Richard A. Carlson Professor of Psychology Duncan K. H. Fong Professor of Marketing, and Statistics Head of Department of Marketing *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. iii ABSTRACT According to previous research, consumers naturally think of brands or products as belonging to multiple categories, depending on which of various available categories come to mind. To help marketers identify the categories that consumers naturally perceive, this study proposes a new statistical procedure, in which the identification of unobserved categories varies across consumers, and brands or products may span multiple categories. As illustrated with data from 25 U.S. restaurant brands and a synthetic example, this procedure accounts for different categorization phenomena and structures, including multiple-category memberships, different levels of abstraction, and graded memberships of category representations. Finally, it is also shown that creating assortments that more closely approximate consumers’ own category structures can facilitate their search, and ultimately, their satisfaction with their choice. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF FIGURES ............................................................................................................................... v LIST OF TABLES ...............................................................................................................................
