  • Impact of Immigration on Native and Ethnic Consumer Identity Via Body Image
    International Journal of Marketing Studies; Vol. 9, No. 1; 2017 ISSN 1918-719X E-ISSN 1918-7203 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Impact of Immigration on Native and Ethnic Consumer Identity via Body Image Anurag G. Hingorani1, Lynne Freeman1 & Michelle Agudera1 1 Marketing Discipline Group, University of Technology Sydney, Broadway, Australia Correspondence: Anurag G. Hingorani, Marketing Discipline Group, University of Technology Sydney, P. O. Box 123, Broadway, NSW, Australia. Tel: 61-2-9514-3543. E-mail: [email protected] Received: November 8, 2016 Accepted: January 7, 2017 Online Published: January 16, 2017 doi:10.5539/ijms.v9n1p27 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ijms.v9n1p27 Abstract This research focuses on consumer identity of two under-researched but growing immigrant communities in Australia via the lens of the body image construct. Consistent with an emerging stream of research, body image is viewed as a part of identity. Given the variety of goods and services that have an impact on consumers’ perceptions of their body, and because consumers use products to create and convey desired identities, body image is also viewed as a part of consumer identity. Considering literature on identity, body image, and acculturation, exploratory research was undertaken to determine the impact of immigration on the identities of both immigrants and natives. Specifically, focus groups were conducted on two generations of Filipino- and Indian-Australian women as well as Anglo-Australian women. It was found that second generation immigrants have dual consumer identities where they balance the values, attitudes and lifestyles of both their home (i.e., native or heritage) and host cultures whereas first generation immigrants tend to retain their native consumer identity even if they appear to adopt values, attitudes, and lifestyles of the host culture.

  • Acculturation and Body Image: a Cross-Cultural, Inter-Generational
    ASSOCIATION FOR CONSUMER RESEARCH Labovitz School of Business & Economics, University of Minnesota Duluth, 11 E. Superior Street, Suite 210, Duluth, MN 55802 Acculturation and Body Image: a Cross-Cultural, Inter-Generational, Qualitative Study of Filipino- and Indian-Australians Anurag Hingorani, University of Technology Sydney, Australia Lynne Freeman, University of Technology Sydney, Australia Michelle Agudera, University of Technology Sydney (graduate), Australia Prior research investigating the relationship between acculturation and body image has largely been quantitative. This qualitative study investigates how and why the process of change in values, attitudes, and standards when moving cultures (i.e., acculturation) that is experienced by two under-researched immigrant communities in multicultural Australia, namely, Filipino-Australians and Indian-Australians, might influence their body image perceptions. Two generations of these immigrant groups were compared with Anglo-Australians. The immigrant groups were found to be more relaxed than the Anglo groups with respect to their body image, which was indirectly impacted by the factors that shaped their acculturation experience.
