消费者行为心理学中英文外文文献翻译(含：英文原文及中文译文)英文原文Frontiers of Social PsychologyArie W. Kruglanski 、Joseph P. ForgasFrontiers of Social Psychology is a new series of domain-specific handbooks. The purpose of each volume is to provide readers with a cutting-edge overview of the most recent theoretical, methodological, and practical developments in a substantive area of social psychology, in greater depth than is possible in general social psychology handbooks. The editors and contributors are all internationally renowned scholars whose work is at the cutting-edge of research.Scholarly, yet accessible, the volumes in the Frontiers series are an essential resource for senior undergraduates, postgraduates, researchers, and practitioners, and are suitable as texts in advanced courses in specific subareas of social psychology.Some Social Asp ects of Living in a Consumer SocietyThe following sketches will illustrate that in a consumer society much of the behavior studied by social psychologists relates to consumer stimuli and consumer behavior. Thus, the consumer context provides a rich field for the study of social phenomena and behavior.Consumer Decisions Are UbiquitousWhether we are in the supermarket or not, we are constantly making consumer decisions. We enroll in gyms, use our frequent-flyer miles for a vacation resort, buy health care, choose a restaurant, skip dessert for a healthier lifestyle. In fact, most of our daily decisions do not involve existential decisions such as whom to marry or whether to have children or not, but whether to have tea or coffee, use our credit card or pay cash, or other seemingly trivial decisions. Moreover, many of our daily (consumer) behaviors do not even require intentional decisions. Rather, they may be habitual, such as switching to CNN to get the news or accessing Google when looking up some information. A typical day of a typical person is filled with countless minor consumer decisions or the consequences of previous decisions, starting with the brand of toothpaste in the morning to choosing a movie after work.Consumer Choices Fulfill a Social-Identity FunctionAlthough for most people being a consumer may not be central to their identity, many of their consumer decisions are nevertheless highly identity-relevant insofar as they correspond to a larger set of values and beliefs and express important aspects of the self. Eating a vegetarian diet because one does not want to endorse cruelty to animals and boycotting clothes potentially made by child laborers are some examples. Some people buy a Prius out of environmental concerns; others boycott Japanese cars —such as the Prius —in order to help the local carindustry. In this respect, even the choice between Coke and Pepsi is not necessarily trivial. People who cannot discriminate Coke from Pepsi in a blind test, or who prefer Pepsi, may nevertheless adhere to Coke as a cultural icon. Attempts to change the formula of Coke met with angry protests and opposition. Clearly, consumer products and brands do not only fulfill utilitarian needs (Olson & Mayo, 2000; Shavitt, 1990). In a world of oversupply and differentiating brands, many consumers choose brands in order to express their personality or to affiliate themselves with desired others. They do not simply use a Mac; they are Mac users, and switching to another brand of PC would be akin to treason. From soft drinks to computers, brands may become an ideology. People may also perceive of products as extended selves (Belk, 1988); for example, they may identify with their cars just as they do with pets. Likewise, brands may define social groups. The Harley-Davidson Club is a legendary example; an Internet search revealed clubs for almost every car brand and model. In my hometown, I found a V olkswagen New Beetle Club whose stated purpose is to cultivate contacts between New Beetle Drivers by organizing social events (among others, a visit to a car cemetery). On the road, drivers of the same car model often greet each other. Apparently, driving the same model is sufficient to establish social closeness. Brands, products, and consumption habits not only help to establish social connectivity but also serve as status symbols, defining vertical andhorizontal social boundaries. By using particular brands or consuming specific products, people can express a certain lifestyle or attempt to convey a particular social impression. Subscribing to the opera conveys one’s social position just as going to a monster truck race does. Whether your choice of drink is wine or beer, cappuccino or herbal tea, your order expresses more than merely your taste in beverages.Consumer Choices Affect Social PerceptionGiven that brands and products are part of social expression, it is not surprising that people are judged by the brands and products they use. In particular, products of a social-identity function are used as bases for inferences about a target’s personality traits (Shavitt & Nelson, 2000). Likewise, smoking, food choice and amount of food intake have all been shown to affect social impressions. Depending on the subculture of the perceiver (age, country), different personality traits are assumed in smokers compared with nonsmokers (e.g., Cooper & Kohn, 1989; Jones & Carroll, 1998). Various studies found that eaters of a healthier diet are perceived as more feminine and in general judged more favorably than eaters of unhealthy foods (for a review see V artanian, Herman, & Polivy, 2007). Arguing that a Pepsi drinker is to a Coke drinker what a Capulet was to a Montague is, of course, an exaggeration, but clearly brands may distinguish ingroup from out-group members. Possibly this is most extreme among teenagers, where the brand of jeans is perceived todetermine coolness and popularity. Nevertheless, the phenomenon is not limited to teen culture, as testified by the previous examples of social communities defined by shared brands. In sum, from wet versus dry shaving to driving a Porsche versus a Smart, consumer behavior is used as a cue in person perception. Most likely, such cues also manifest in behavior toward these consumers. Physical attacks on women who wear fur are a most extreme example.Affective Consequences of Consumer BehaviorObviously, consumption and the use of products and services may give pleasure and satisfaction or displeasure and dissatisfaction. People may experience joy from wearing a new sweater or suffer emotional consequences when products or services fail or cause inconvenience. Product use is only one source of affective consumer experiences. The mere act of choosing and acquisition is another. People enjoy or dislike the experience of shopping. They may take pleasure from the freedom of simply choosing between different options (e.g., Botti & Iyengar, 2004), feel overwhelmed and confused by an abundance of options (e.g., Huffman & Kahn, 1998), or feel frustrated by a limited assortment that does not meet their particular needs (e.g., Chernev, 2003). They may experience gratification and a boost in self-esteem from the fact that they can afford a particular consumer lifestyle or grudge the fact that they cannot. Many daily sources of affective experiences involve consumerbehavior in one way or another.The Consumer Context Provides Unique Social InteractionsGranted, we rarely form deep and meaningful relationships with our hairdressers and waiters. Still, the consumer context affords many social interactions over a day. Again, these interactions— even if brief— may constitute a source of affective experiences. The smile of the barista, the compliment from the shop-assistant, and the friendly help from the concierge are just a few examples of how such consumerrelated interactions may make us feel good, worthy, and valued, whereas snappy and rude responses have the opposite effect. Besides, the social roles defined by the consumer context may provide unique opportunities for particular behaviors, interactions, and experiences not inherent in other roles. Being a client or customer makes one expect respect, courtesy, and attendance to one’s needs. For some, this may be the only role in their life that gives them a limited sense of being in charge and having others meet their demands. To give another example, complaining is a form of social interaction that mostly takes place within the consumer context. A search for ―complaint behavior‖ in the PsycI NFO database found that 34 out of 50 entries were studies from the consumer context. (The rest mostly related to health care, which may to some extent also be viewed as consumer context.) Given the importance of the consumer context to social experiences and interactions, it provides a prime opportunity forstudying these social behaviors.•How consumers think, feel, reason, and the psychology of screening for different items (such as brands, products); • Consumer behavior when they shop or make other marketing decisions;•Limits in consumer knowledge or access to information affect decisions and marketing outcomes;•How can marketers adapt and improve their marketing competitiveness and marketing strategies to attract consumers more efficiently?Bergi gives an official definition of consumer behavior: the process and the activities people perform when they research, select, purchase, use, evaluate, and deal with products and services in order to meet their needs. The behavior occurs in a group or an organization where individuals or individuals appear in this context. Consumer behavior includes using and handling products and studying how products are bought. The use of products is generally of great interest to marketers because it may affect how a product is in the best position or how we can encourage increased consumption.The Nicosia model focuses on the relationship between the company and its potential customers. The company communicates with consumers through its marketing messages or advertisements and consumers' reactions to the information they want to buy. Seeing this pattern, we willfind that companies and consumers are interconnected. Companies want to influence consumers. Consumers influence company decisions through their decisions.Consumer sentiment refers to a unique set of emotional reactions to the use of or eliciting a consumer experience in the product, a unique class or relationship of the emotional experience described and expressed (such as joy, anger and fear), such as the structural dimensions of the emotional category or pleasant/unpleasant, Relax/action, or calm/excited. Goods and services are often accompanied by emotional reactions (such as the fear caused by watching a horror movie). Emotional values are often associated with aesthetic choices (such as religion, reason). However, more material and utilitarian products also seem to have emotional value. For example, some foods cause childhood experiences and feel comfortable with them. Izad (1977) developed a method of emotional experience and introduced basic emotions. He uses ten words to distinguish the basic types of emotions: interest, joy, surprise, sadness, anger, disgust, contempt, fear, shame, and guilt. This method has been widely used by consumer research.In order to implement the interpersonal and personal construction in this framework, we use the concept of self-awareness to express the influence of consumer response on society. Self-awareness is defined as the individual's consistent trend to focus directly on inward or outward.This theory identifies two different types of people with self-consciousness. The open self-conscious person pays special attention to other people's views on their outside. The private self-conscious person pays more attention to their inner thoughts and feelings. In this case, we assume that the reputation of consumption may be different based on sensitivity to other people. This proposal is also consistent with previous research. It shows that people with different personal behaviors depend on their sensitivity to interpersonal influences. Dubois and Dikena emphasized that "we believe that the analysis of the direct relationship between consumers and brands is a key to improving understanding of such a market." This original assumption is that of private or The value of the open superior product comes from the inherent social status of these objects. Many existing studies emphasize the role of the role played in the exchange of information about their owners and social relationships.中文译文社会心理学前沿艾瑞·克鲁格兰斯基，约瑟夫·弗加斯社会心理学的前沿是一个新的领域专用手册系列。

消费者行为研究范式外文翻译文献(含：英文原文及中文译文)英文原文CONSUMER BEHA VIOR RESEARCH PARADIGM CONVERSIONPROCESSHenny LarocheStudy of consumer behavior more than a hundred years the history of the formation of the two paradigms - positivism and non-empirical study of consumer behavior represents the meaning of the basic achievements. Positivist paradigm to non-positivist paradigm shift represents a shift consumer behavior research, consumer behavior research is a revolutionary change. This paradigm shift, but also makes the assumption that consumer behavior research, research methods, study, basic knowledge of related disciplines, and many borrowed paradigm composition have changed dramatically. Background of this changing environment to promote the 20th century, 80 years after the world economic growth and prosperity, the industrial structure has undergone tremendous changes, purchasing power has been an unprecedented increase, the pursuit of individuality and freedom of consumers desire to become increasingly The more intense.I. A review of the transition process of consumer behavior research paradigmThe study of consumer behavior has taken initial shape in Adam Smith et al.'s classical economic theory; a preliminary system was formed in Marshall et al.'s neoclassical economics; consumerism was independent in the 1950s and 1960s. The form of discipline is separated from marketing. In its more than one hundred years of development history, its research paradigm can be summed up as positivism and non-positivism.Moreover, each paradigm breeds many research perspectives. Positivism includes rationality, behavior, cognition, motivation, society, traits, attitude and situational perspective; non-positivist paradigms include interpretivism and postmodernism. The root cause of the shift from positivism to non-positivism in consumer behavior theory is that researchers have changed the assumptions of consumer rationality. Early classical economics and neoclassical economics provided the first theoretical support for the theory of consumer behavior (in fact, the precursor of consumer behavior—the marketing is also born out of economics), and the “economic man” assumes spontaneously. “Infiltrating” consumer behavior research, which can be clearly seen from the theory of the early schools of consumer behavior theory (such as the concept of rationality, behavior) can clearly see the "economic man" rational shadow. However, the main body of economics research is the economic system of the entire society. The research object is also how theeconomic system realizes the coordinated operation, rather than the specific individual's purchase decision and behavior. Economics lays the initial foundation for the study of consumer behavior, but it cannot explain the complexity of consumer behavior. It places too much emphasis on the rational side of consumption and neglects the emotional side of consumption. Therefore, the "economic man" hypothesis restricts the further development of consumer behavior theory. The theory of consumer behavior has to absorb nutrition from other disciplines and describe consumer behavior in more detail. The prosperity of disciplines such as psychology, social psychology, sociology, and anthropology has provided new theoretical material for the study of consumer behavior theory. At this time, consumers are no longer simply based on cost-benefit analysis to pursue utility maximization of “economic people” but “social people”. Social and emotional factors influence their purchasing decisions. It is this transformation that has shaped the development of consumer behavior in the humanities and social sciences. After the 1980s, the sustained development of the world economy and the tremendous abundance of materials have made consumption increasingly a way of pastime and individuality; the proportion of service consumption in people’s consumption structures has been increasing, and service production has increased. The same characteristics as consumption also extend the customer consumption process to the production process, andthe consumer experience also becomes a source of customer value creation. At this point, the study of consumer behavior can no longer be limited to how customers make purchase decisions, but should focus on how consumers' desires are met. As a result, consumers have become “free people” who pursue personality development and release consumer desires. The conversion of the hypotheses of “economic man”, “social man” and “free man” promoted the conversion of consumer behavior theory from positivism to non-positivism.Second, the consumer behavior research under the positivist paradigmThe positivist paradigm of consumer behavior research is deeply influenced by the philosophy of Aristotle, a famous philosopher in the West. Kurt Lewin pointed out in the book Conflict and Comparison of Aristotle's and Galileo's Thought Patterns that Aristotle’s philosophical thoughts have influenced us and influenced the habits of scientific research. People are accustomed to understanding the law of development through laws and frequency of occurrence, and people like to explore the law of development with things that are stable and tendentious, and feel cold about the regularity of infrequent and exceptional things. Lewin said that when someone refers to a child's specific movement in a movie, the first question that psychologists think of is "Does all children have done this action? Or at least it is a common action. "Regularity is alwayscommon, which means that repeatability is an important indicator of whether a phenomenon or thing is worth studying."Positivism is based on Aristotle's thought as its philosophy of science. It assumes that consumers are rational, recognizable, and mentally stable. Their behavioral motivations can all identify controls and predictions. There are simplistic truths in real consumer practices; they emphasize scientific observation and testing, and they observe empirical The evidence, thus obtaining universal rules for predicting and controlling consumer behavior. Therefore, under the paradigm of positivism, the hypothesis underlying consumer behavior research is that consumer behavior is controlled by certain forces, and these forces largely exceed the scope of consumer self-control. The change in consumer behavior is not so much a reflection of the subjective will of consumers as it is the result of various internal and external factors. For example, the behavioral theory of consumer behavior holds that consumers' behavior is mainly caused by external environmental stimuli. Therefore, the hypothesis “the main or sole purpose of motive is to reduce cognitive inconsistency, maintain the balance of inner mind, and consumers always seek the inner balance of behavior”. From a certain point of view, this is also a concept of static behavior. As Firat commented: "Consumer behavior theory believes behavioral consistency and orderliness." Therefore, consumer behavioral characteristics (such ascognitive response, conditioning, personal characteristics, etc.) follow the "consumers are always pursuing "Intrinsic balance" hypothesis that researchers can predict some of the behavior of consumers, and the forecast results have significant implications for the marketing activities of the company.In short, in the positivist consumer research paradigm, consumers are just passive and passive objects. For example, the behavioral hypothesis assumes that consumers lack self-awareness, and therefore believes that through the influence of the environment, the company's marketing strategy can control and guide consumers. This is also a leap forward for people to attack the positivist paradigm, and consumer behavior is also In the fifties and sixties of the 20th century, it was an independent discipline. The positivist paradigm assumes that consumers are passive objects. In fact, this assumption is a serious departure from the customer-oriented marketing philosophy. The American Marketing Association reaffirmed at its 1988 theme conference: “In the study of consumer behavior that generates marketing knowledge, consumers have unfortunately been converted into laboratory guinea pigs, and they have become subjects of observations, interviews, and experiments.”It is precisely because positivism assumes that the consumer is an object that can be recognized, and therefore the consumer's consumption and experience process can be separated and can be subdivided intodifferent components. We can use various objective analytical methods to analyze the different components of the consumption and experience process. These methods mainly include standard questionnaire methods, experimental methods, and personality trait tests. However, these methods cannot fully analyze the rich consumer behavior. Because a certain element of a process is separated and then analyzed in detail, the complexity and interaction of the system are ignored. Braithwaite believes that the standard quantitative survey methods (such as the questionnaire method) will only limit the consumer's description of consumption, resulting in respondents responding negatively to various questions.Although there are quite a few criticisms, we should also see the consumption rules that are abstracted out using traditional methods, which predict and control consumer behavior: the conclusions drawn by some scientific investigation methods are credible within the scope of their observations. . In addition, the quintessence of the positivist paradigm of “creatively constructing consumer behavior theory” also promotes the development of marketing practices.Third, non-positivist-oriented consumer behavior researchThe study of consumer behavior in the non-positivist paradigm no longer treats consumers as passive responders but agents with psychological proactiveness. They have the ability to interpret andconstruct the consumer environment. For example, the concept of interpretation believes that consumer behavior is governed by the content and structure of the subjective will of consumers. Shaughnessy thinks: "In the interpretation of viewing, buying behavior cannot simply be calculated rationally based on the benefits and cost benefits that products can bring, but is a collection of individual experience sensations in the consumption process." Therefore, consumer behavior and decision-making basis It is an inherent subjective value system. The focus of research on consumer behavior in the perspective of postmodern consumer behavior research and interpretation is the subjective value, language, and rhetoric of consumers.Brown believes that in the marketing sense, the concept of interpretation differs from postmodernism in that the former assumes that man is an autonomous subject, a free mind, an individual capable of self-awareness. For example, humanism and phenomenology believe that consumers are internally consistent and rational and can determine their own consumer experience processes and values. Therefore, similar to the traditional view, the interpretation view also assumes that consumers have some of the nature that constitutes their essence. In addition, the concept of interpretation also emphasizes that consumers also have illusions, emotions, and the pursuit of pleasure to experience consumption. They believe that consumers always make internal and consistent statementsand subjective descriptions of the environment, thus making the environment more meaningful and More predictable; moreover, the subjective description of consumers is also assumed to be understood and shared by most people in society.Post-modernist consumerism holds that consumers do not have fixed or existing essential things to drive their behavior. Therefore, self-recognition and subjective feelings depend on specific contexts and atmospheres. These contexts and atmospheres are also affected by social roles among consumers. Therefore, the images and subjective feelings produced by consumption are often changed or transformed. They are influenced by variables such as consumers spending with whom, under what kind of consumption environment, and why. Postmodernism insists that consumer identity is intermittent, incomplete, and easily changeable. Firat believes that consumers' self-image, characteristics, and values are multidimensional, and they are unaware of the inconsistencies between constantly changing, self-contradictory values and lifestyles. Therefore, the outlook of postmodernist consumer behavior focuses on the creativity and self-governance ability that consumers have shown through their own different consumption and lifestyle to change their living environment.Through the analysis of the above-mentioned various perspectives, we can know that when consumers make purchase decisions, they not only focus on product utility, but also focus on the symbolic value of theproduct. The consumer goods' satisfaction with the material needs of consumers is merely an appearance, and what is more important is that we must pay attention to the symbolic value of the products. For consumers, consumption can produce two aspects of symbolic value: the self-identity value of self-identification of consumers and the social symbol value of social identity. In line with this, consumption plays an important role in creating and maintaining the personal and social environmental significance and value of consumers. Therefore, advertising is often seen as a major means of constructing and maintaining the symbolic meaning of symbols. These cultural meanings are often concentrated on the brand, so Elliot believes that brands are often the primary means used to create and maintain symbolism such as identity. Firat believes that this also reflects the conventional connection between consumer culture and human freedom: by changing the product to obtain different images, in order to obtain different self. This freedom to acquire a new image of self is the result of liberation from a single, inflexible, and traditional.However, the concept of interpretation and post-modern non-positivist paradigm have also been criticized in the following aspects: (1) Ignore the restrictive effects of non-discretionary factors on consumer behavior in consumer behavior. Thompson et al. pointed out that the postmodernist conception of consumption is based on an ideal hypothesis:consumers' consumption behavior is based on cultural constraints, historical constraints, and the status quo of actual material development. Therefore, the non-positivist paradigm places special emphasis on consumers' free choice of self-identifying image without any threat of uncertainty and fear. This assumption is clearly unrealistic. (2) Some scholars such as Foxall believe that non-positivist research methods essentially abandon the essence of science and always remove consumption from its content environment. Therefore, their viewpoints and conclusions cannot constitute a complete theoretical system that facilitates in-depth study and understanding. (3) Non-positivist research methods If the conclusions are not based on positivist research results, the explanatory power will be greatly reduced. Non-positivist research methods rely mainly on subjective subjective external proofs, and these interpersonal proofs require a positivist approach. In short, the notion of non-positivist paradigm and the perspective of postmodernism provide different research methods for the study of consumer behavior. They often discuss the major issues of marketing theory and practice from an abstract perspective, so the basic assumptions of these theoretical perspectives are The conclusions are puzzling and difficult to apply to marketer training and education.IV. Comparison and Enlightenment of Consumer Behavior Research ParadigmsObviously, non-positivism is also a response to empirical hegemonism. After World War II, positivism-oriented research methods became the mainstream method of consumer behavior research. Empirical, objective, and scientific procedures constitute the characteristics of the positivist paradigm. The consumer guided by this philosophy of science is a self-centered, self-conscious entity. Non-positivist-oriented research on consumer behavior (especially post-modernism) raises questions and criticizes the philosophical, cultural, and empirical foundations of positivist research. According to Firat and V enkatesh, “Positivism reduces consumer issues to include only simple two-dimensional categories like men and women, consumers and producers. It should be seen that the rationality of non-positivist assumptions, such as There are social, complex, irrational and unpredictable consumer subjects. These consumer characteristics are not only reflected in their purchase process, but also in the consumption experience and value perception, and have already formed the basis for consumption.”(1) Using a scientific attitude to view the confrontation between the paradigms of positivism and non-positivism. Just as Kuhn reflected on the first characteristic of the paradigm definiti on, “Their achievements have attracted an unwavering array of advocators who have separated them from other competing models of scientific activity.” Now, consumer behavior researchers have also launched fierce debates on the twoparadigms of positivism and non-positivism. In the natural sciences, the struggle of scientific theories and the rise and decline of paradigms are all very normal things. Actually, this phenomenon also exists in social sciences. Each theory needs ideas to prove its viability. For the time being, no matter which of the two paradigms in consumer behavior research is more suitable for the development of consumer behavior. We believe that the scientific attitude is the first. The emotional reaction to scientific research is not conducive to the development of science. True scholars are calm and should have a more comprehensive understanding of all research methods, compare their theoretical views with opposing theoretical perspectives, and verify whether they are established. The conclusions drawn either through positivist or non-positivist methods can be assumed to be correct until proven to be wrong.2 Science is a process of seeking truth. The ethnographic method in anthropology is a more scientific method of studying consumer behavior. Whether it is a positivist paradigm or a non-positivist paradigm, one of their commonalities is the pursuit of the authenticity of the research results. Scientific research itself is a kind of behavior seeking truth. It is no longer purely to use the consumer purchase process as the main research object, but should focus on the aspects of value acquisition and consumption. This has become the consensus of scholars. Using this broad behavioral perspective to study consumer behavior also means thatwe are required to look for consumers' actual consumption situations as much as possible, especially those that are meaningful to marketing activities. Some rigorous consumer behavior researchers believe that consumer behavior research should not adopt interviews or experiments, but should try to approach the original consumer behavior. Therefore, the ethnographic of anthropology should become a frontier method of consumer behavior research. It is a method that combines case studies, participation in observation, self-driven, and detailed description. Researchers should work hard to become a member of the consumer, practice it personally, and obtain a detailed record of consumer behavior. Of course, in the process of observing and exploring consumers' inner lives, including their inner activities, many problems will be encountered. These studies are all based on the self-statement of the consumer, and the credibility of the statement can be influenced by factors such as psychological self-defense and lies. In short, the premise of the ethnographic law is that the consumer is a complex person. Researchers want to obtain information about consumer behavior. They must go through in-depth interviews, group meetings, and project management techniques. Researchers should make detailed descriptions and observations of consumer behaviors, and use these “historical materials” to dig out the laws behind consumer behavior.中文译文消费者行为研究范式转换过程作者：Henny Laroche消费者行为学研究一百年多的发展历史所形成的两大范式——实证主义与非实证义代表着消费者行为研究的基本成就。
