COGNITIVE, PERCEPTUAL AND BEHAVIORAL EFFECTS OF NEURO-STIMULI: A STUDY ON PACKAGED FOOD PRODUCTS

Öz:
Today, the food sector is characterised with intense competition and continuously becoming morechallenging for marketers. When it is realised that 95% of consumers' purchasing decisions aremade unconsciously, marketing tools started to target unconscious minds. Combiningneuroscience and marketing disciplines, neuromarketing studies found that neuro-stimuli,directly addressing the brain, are influential on consumer perceptions. This study investigatesthe effects of neuro-stimuli applied on food product poster and packaging on mother-woman andchild consumers' brand awareness, quality perceptions and purchase intentions. In theexperimental design implemented, a total of 284 subjects composed of women and children aredivided into 6 groups, and they were exposed to various degrees of neuro-stimuli in the posterand product packages in order to measure the influence of these stimuli. Findings of the researchconfirmed that application of neuro-stimuli significantly increased quality perception of womenand purchase intentions of both woman and child consumers. Increasing intensity of neurostimulialso generated a partially significant influence. Theoretical and managerial implicationsare provided based on these findings.

NÖRO-UYARANLARIN BİLİŞSEL, ALGISAL VE DAVRANIŞSAL ETKİLERİ: AMBALAJLI GIDA ÜRÜNLERİ ÜZERİNE BİR ÇALIŞMA

Öz:
Günümüzde gıda sektörü yoğun rekabet düzeyi ile özdeşleşmiş ve pazarlamacılar açısından oldukça zorlayıcı şartlar oluşturmaya başlamıştır. Tüketicilerin satın alma işlemlerinin % 95’ini bilinçsiz bir şekilde gerçekleştirdikleri fark edildiğinde, pazarlama araçları da bilinç dışı beyni hedeflemeye başlamıştır. Nörobilim ve pazarlama disiplinlerini bir araya getiren nöropazarlama çalışmaları, direkt olarak beyini hedefleyen nöro-uyaranların tüketici algıları üzerinde etkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu çalışma, poster ve ürün ambalajı üzerinde uygulanan nörouyaranların anne-kadın ve çocuk tüketicilerin marka farkındalığı, kalite algısı ve satın alma niyeti üzerindeki etkilerini incelemektedir. Kurgulanan deneysel tasarım kapsamında kadın ve çocuklardan oluşan 284 katılımcı 6 gruba ayrılmış ve poster ve ambalajlar üzerinde uygulanan farklı nöro-uyaran yoğunluk seviyelerine maruz kalmışlardır. Araştırma sonuçları nöro-uyaran uygulamalarının kadın tüketicilerin kalite algılarında, yine kadın ve çocuk tüketicilerin ise satın alma niyetlerinde pozitif yönde etkiye neden olduğunu göstermektedir. Buna ek olarak, uygulanan nöro-uyaran yoğunluğu artış gösterdikçe, kısmi olarak anlamlı bir pozitif etkiye neden olmaktadır. Çalışmanın bulguları kapsamında akademik ve uygulamaya yönelik değerlendirmeler sunulmuştur.
