Effects of Parent‐Extension Similarity and Self Regulatory Focus on Evaluations of Brand Extensions

Abstract: Research has shown that a similar extension of a brand is evaluated more favorably than a dissimilar one. In this research we demonstrate that self‐regulatory focus (promotion vs. prevention focus) significantly moderates the effect. Four experiments demonstrated that similar extensions were evaluated more favorably than less similar extensions when participants were chronically or momentarily prevention focused, whereas such effect was eliminated and sometimes even reversed when participants were chronically … Show more

“…Semin et al, 2005) and both mental and physical health outcomes (e.g., Strauman et al, 2006). The GRFM, in contrast, has primarily been used in investigations examining role models (e.g., Lockwood, Chasten, & Wong, 2005), and in applied research (e.g., Yeo & Park, 2006). Despite their differences in content, development, and applications, both scales share the limitation of being self-report measures and thus are limited by the degree to which participants possess insight into their own motivational state and experiences.…”

“…At this point, the studies that reveal the importance of the fact that motivations are determiners of consumers' purchase decisions and these motivations affect the various side of consumer behavior just like the products and brand evaluation (Aaker & Lee, 2006;Yeo & Park, 2006).…”

“…In prior literature, there were two major lines of research that explored the determinants of consumers' brand extension evaluations. The first was product category similarity, which asserted that consumers' brand extension evaluations are determined by the similarity between the core product category and the extension product category (Aaker & Keller, 1990;Yeo & Park, 2006). Because the basis of brand extension evaluation relies on the similarity between two product categories, it can be called productto-product similarity.…”
