1 Chapter 10 Motivation, Personality, and Emotion
2 Motivation Motivation is the state of drive or arousal that impels behavior toward a goal-object. A drive (motive) is an internal state of tension that produces actions
purported to reduce the tension. A goal-object is something in the external world whose acquisition will reduce the tension. Motivational Theories: Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs McGuire’s Motive Classification
3 A Model of the Motivation
Process
Drive/Arousal: Cognitive Autonomic Emotive Outcome: Experience of new state Satisfaction Identification of goal-directed behavior Behavior: Approach or Avoidance
4 Maslow’s Hierarchy According to psychologist Abraham Maslow, human needs and wants are arranged in a hierarchy. Higher level needs
remain dormant until lower level needs are satisfied. Though Maslow does not distinguish between needs and wants, marketers do. According to marketers, only the first two needs in Maslow’s hierarchy are “needs,” while the remaining three are “wants.”
5 Maslow’s Hierarchy
Advanced
Basic 5. Self-actualization: This involves the desire for self- fulfillment, to become all that one is capable of becoming. 4. Esteem: Desires for status, superiority, self-respect, and prestige are examples of esteem needs. These needs relate to the individual’s feelings of usefulness and accomplishment. 3. Belongingness: Belongingness motives are reflected in a desire for love, friendship, affiliation, and group
acceptance. 2. Safety: Feeling physical safety and security, stability, familiar surroundings, and so forth are manifestations of safety needs. They are aroused after physiological motives are minimally satisfied, and before other motives. 1. Physiological: Food, water, sleep, and to a limited extent, sex, are physiological motives. Unless they are minimally satisfied, other motives are not activated. The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 1998
6 McGuire’s Classification System
Need for Consistency Need to Attribute Causation Need to Categorize Need for Cues Need for Independence Need for Novelty Need for Self-Expression Need for
Ego-Defense Need for Assertion Need for Reinforcement Need for Affiliation Need for Modeling
7 Purchase Motives Manifest motives are those that are
known and acknowledged. Latent motives are those that are either unknown to the customer or ones that the customer are reluctant to acknowledge. Researching latent motives often requires use of projective techniques.
8 Latent and
Manifest Motives In a Purchase Situation
A large car is more comfortable It’s a high-quality car that performs well A number of my friends drive a Cadillac It will demonstrate that I’m successful It’s a powerful, sexy car and it will help make me powerful and sexy Purchase a Cadillac The linkage between behavior and motives that are known and freely admitted The linkage
between behavior and motives that are either unknown or are such that the consumer is reluctant to admit or reveal them The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 1998
9 Projective Technique Example
What do you think of the new software that the company installed? I
haven’t used it much yet, but...
10 Projective Technique Example
Someone who drinks hot tea is ______________. Tea is good to drink when __________________. Making hot tea is _________________________. My friends think tea is
_____________________.
11 Projective Technique Example
Results of a word association test with alternative brand names for a new fruit-flavored sparkling water drink included the following: Possible Brand Name Associated Words Ormango Green, tart, jungle
Tropical Fruit Juice, sweet, island Orange Sparkle Light, bubbly, cool Paradise Passion Fruity, thick, heavy
12 Benefit Chain Technique
The benefit chain or laddering technique (based on Means-End Theory) seeks a deeper understanding of how product attributes are
associated with personal beliefs and goals. Thus, it provides insights into why the customer thinks various benefits are important. Knowing why customers care about certain attributes may suggest the kinds of quality improvements that will be most meaningful to customers.
13 Benefit Chain
Example Here is a typical chain or ladder obtained from a secretary discussing why she would prefer to use an overnight package delivery service that has drop boxes available: Drop Box Convenient Save Time Can Do More Personal Satisfaction Accomplishment Self-Esteem
14 Personality Personality is an individual’s characteristic response tendencies across similar situations. A consistent repeated pattern of
behavior is what constitutes personality. Personality theories can be categorized as either individual or social learning theories, however, many people believe that a combination of both individual characteristics (genetics) and social learning (environment) impact personality.

17 Emotions Emotions are strong, relatively uncontrolled feelings that affect our behavior. Emotions can be triggered by our environment or by internal processes such as imagery.
Emotions are accompanied by physiological changes. We interpret emotions based on cognitive thoughts, emotions (specific feelings), behaviors, and affective (like/dislike) responses.
