AUTO CONGRUÊNCIA: A PREFERÊNCIA DE MARCA COMO UMA FUNÇÃO DO EU
Palavras-chave:
Auto Congruência, Marcas, Bens de consumoResumo
A teoria da auto congruência postula que os consumidores são impulsionados a consumir marcas mais condizentes com suas auto percepções, de modo a suprir uma necessidade simbólica e não somente funcional no consumo. Baseado nesta premissa, o presente artigo visa analisar a relação entre a influência da auto congruência e do valor percebido na preferência de marca. Os resultados, ainda que em amostra de conveniência, sugerem que a preferência de marca está mais vinculada à congruência do que ao valor percebido.
