Consumer Behaviour: Concepts and Research Methods
Wageningen University
2021
This overview is based on the following outline of the course. For each theory within consumer behavior, a research method
is discussed. Below you can find the theories, along with their research method, that are discussed in this course, and that
you can find in this document. The theory and research method are discussed on the same page, next to each other.

Perception is not seeing how the world actually is, but how Conjoint analysis determines or estimates the contribution

Quality is in the attributes, but attributes cannot be
observed directly. We perceive cues, and cues indicate
attributes (in this case, quality). This can be bottom-up (you
recognize the features and conclude what object it is) or
top-down (you recognize what object it is, and can project
all the features of the object on this particular object).
Attributes can be extrinsic or intrinsic, and cues can be
extrinsic and intrinsic. (So, those are four different things!).
Attribute beliefs are formed in three different ways:
descriptive belief formation, informational belief formation,
and inferential belief formation.
