50th AMA-Sheth Doctoral Consortium
15 – 18 July 2015
London, UK
DEAN’S WELCOME
Welcome to the 50th AMA–Sheth Foundation Doctoral
Consortium.
We are delighted to be hosting the 50th AMA-Sheth Doctoral
Consortium in our own special 50th anniversary year. This is the
first time the event is being held outside North America and I
wish Consortium Fellows and distinguished global faculty a very
warm welcome on behalf of us all at London Business School.
I have no doubt that the Consortium meeting will provide a powerful forum for the
exchange of ideas and perhaps also the start of new collaborations. By strengthening
academic networks, the Consortium supports what is important to all of us – the
integrity and quality of academic research. It is also our pleasure to have you here.

CO-CHAIRS’ WELCOME
For 50 years, the American Marketing Association-Sheth Foundation Doctoral
Consortium has brought together the top marketing doctoral students with the world’s
most distinguished marketing faculty. The goal of the Consortium is to help young
marketing scholars prepare for their careers by creating an environment in which they
can interact with each other and with leading marketing scholars. Some sessions
at the Consortium will focus on knowledge creation and discuss how to develop
impactful research streams, while others will focus on knowledge dissemination and
discuss how to create outstanding classroom experiences.
During the program, we will:
• Learn about cutting-edge research topics from established scholars in the field;
• Learn about effective pedagogical approaches from excellent teachers;
• Learn about effective time management to balance research, teaching and
service;
• Develop friendships and foster research collaboration opportunities;
• Acquire tips on how to navigate through the review process;
• Explore marketing trends.
This Consortium marks the first time the event is being held outside North America.
Moreover, we will celebrate two significant anniversaries. 2015 will be the year when
the Consortium and London Business School both celebrate their first 50 years.
Thank you for joining us, and welcome to London Business School!

AMA PRESIDENT WELCOME
Dear Consortium Fellow,
Congratulations on being selected as a 2015 American Marketing AssociationSheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium Fellow! On behalf of the American Marketing
Association (AMA), I would like to welcome you to this prestigious event which has a
long, rich tradition in the marketing discipline. Being selected to attend the Consortium
is an honor for both fellows and faculty members.
As background, the first AMA Doctoral Consortium was held in 1966. It was designed
to introduce up-­and-coming scholars in marketing to leaders in the field and to allow
participating doctoral students and faculty to network socially. Over the years, this “by
invitation only” event has flourished to become one of the premier AMA events. In 1997,
a generous commitment to finance part of the Consortium was made by the Madhuri &
Jagdish N. Sheth Foundation. In addition, each year other sponsors – and especially the
host school – make substantial contributions of money, time, and logistical support.
This year, the 50th consortium, is being held outside of North America for the first time.
With over one hundred doctoral students from leading business schools across the
world and nearly as many distinguished faculty, this is undeniably an international event.
The academic thoughts leaders serving as faculty are investing their time out of a
desire to help you and the other doctoral students establish professional linkages and
make successful transitions to your first faculty position. This year’s program offers
presentations and workshops at the forefront of marketing scholarship as well as
many opportunities for Consortium Faculty and Fellows to interact.
The ultimate goal of the Consortium is to foster connections with people whose
interests span the rich diversity of topics, methodological perspectives, and theories
that comprise the marketing discipline. This exposure is designed to spark creativity
and insight by challenging you to think outside of existing paradigms and to broaden
your view of what constitutes good research. The connections that you form at this
event are what make the AMA-Sheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium truly special.
While the Consortium officially ends in a few days, I encourage you to continue to build and
cultivate these newly formed connections as you launch your academic career. You can
strengthen your relationship network through the many AMA-sponsored conferences and
activities that help connect members. Just go to www.ama.org/arc for more information.
Congratulations, again, on being selected as a 2015 American Marketing AssociationSheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium Fellow. Enjoy!
Best regards,
Michael K. Brady
President, AMA Academic Council

ABOUT THE AMA–SHETH FOUNDATION DOCTORAL
CONSORTIUM
For the last 50 years, the AMA–Sheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium has brought
together top marketing doctoral students with the world’s most distinguished

networking events that encourage interaction and dialogue among renowned faculty
and consortium doctoral fellows. The first consortium was held in 1966. In 1997, the
name was changed to the AMA–Sheth Foundation Doctoral Consortium in recognition
of the Madhuri & Jagdish N. Sheth Foundation’s commitment to finance part of
the consortium on an ongoing basis with the establishment of an AMA Foundation
endowed fund.
The AMA is pleased to provide support to the 50th AMA–Sheth Foundation Doctoral
Consortium through a grant to encourage innovative programming that enhances the
value of participation in the consortium. For additional information about the AMA,

A social psychologist, Jennifer Aaker is the General Atlantic
Professor of Marketing at Stanford University’s Graduate School

the self expressive use of brands, how individuals think, feel
and behave differently across cultures, and how goals motivate
behavior. More recently, she has focused her research efforts on
examining how individuals chose to spend their time and money, and when and why
those choices are associated with lasting value. Her self-proclaimed most impressive
accomplishments include (1) establishing the reputation of being a bad cook, (2)
winning dance-off in the early 1980s, and (3) helping to raise three reasonably polite
children who know to send thank you notes. She has also won some awards.

Nidhi Agrawal is Professor of Marketing at University of
Washington Foster School of Business. Her research focuses
on consumer psychology and the application of these insights
to design effective marketing and public health communications.
In particular, she seeks to understand how goals, emotions, and
self-control affect behavior. Agrawal is particularly interested in
how using principles from consumer psychology can help consumers live happier and
healthier lives.

Yimin Cheng
HKUST
Yimin Cheng is a fourth-year PhD student in marketing at
the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. His
dissertation research explores the interface between work and
consumption. In one essay, he finds that cost-benefit heuristics
that consumers commonly use in goal pursuit are driven by the
extent to which they subscribe to the Protestant Work Ethic. For
example, all else equal, consumers with higher work ethic judge a relatively expensive
courier service to be more reliable than a cheaper counterpart. In another essay, he
finds that belief in the Protestant Work Ethic leads to stronger preference for natural
healthcare. In one study, an analysis of publicly available data reveals that countries
with higher work ethic have lower Caesarean-section rates, but only if these countries
have relatively low (vs. high) medical resources and hence regard C-sections as
unfamiliar and unnatural. Yimin’s other research interests include emotion and moral
psychology. He was a visiting PhD student at Wharton during Fall 2014, and has

turn allowing them to eat more unhealthy food. This work is at an advanced stage of
review at the Journal of Marketing Research. In another project, Linda investigates
how desire for control drives consumers’ preference for large assortments, and how
co-production as an alternate source of control can attenuate the problematic lure of
large assortments. Her research on inferences of self-agency has been published in
Emotion. Before starting the PhD program Linda obtained a Masters in Psychology at
Philipps-Universität Marburg (Germany) and gained work experience in an intercultural
consulting firm.

He (Michael) Jia is a PhD candidate in marketing at the Marshall
School of Business, University of Southern California. Before
entering the USC Marshall School of Business, he obtained
a BA and an MA in marketing, both from Nanjing University,
China. His research mainly focuses on how various visual cues
in a marketing context influence consumer responses. Visual
themes of product designs and visual aspects of product displays are important
decision variables for marketers. In the domain of product design, he examines how
consumers respond to cute-looking products (e.g., a product design with infantilelooking features). In the domain of product display, he investigates how dynamic
visual cues (e.g., the movement speed of a product) in video ads, static visual cues
(e.g., the display size of a product) in print ads, and anthropomorphic product
presentations (e.g., making a product talk and move like a human in a video) shape
consumer perception, evaluation, and decision-making. He is particularly interested
in the impacts of these visual cues on consumers’ various post-acquisition decisions,
including what complementary products to choose for an already owned product and
whether to retain or discard an already owned product.

Mitchell C. Olsen
Indiana University
Mitch is a PhD candidate in the marketing department at Indiana
University’s Kelley School of Business. His dissertation draws
from social identity and framing theories to investigate how a
brand’s new product introductions impact the brand itself. The
first essay of his dissertation, which focuses on how ‘green’ new
products impact brand attitude, was recently published in the
Journal of Marketing. Overall, Mitch is particularly interested in using various empirical
modeling approaches to examine the strategic value of innovation and brands. He
also has a manuscript under advanced review at the Strategic Management Journal
which investigates how a firm’s reputation for quality influences the strategic decision
of whether to pursue novel products, as managers weigh the greater risk of failure
against the possibility of disproportionate returns. Mitch earned both a BS and MS
in Business from Indiana University. Prior to joining the marketing PhD program, he
worked in Customer Business Development at Procter & Gamble.

Gabriela Tonietto

Gabriela Tonietto is a doctoral candidate at Olin Business
School, Washington University in St. Louis. She received her
BSBA, Magna Cum Laude from Washington University in 2011.
Tonietto’s research interests include judgment and decision
making, intertemporal preferences, and hedonic consumption.
She is particularly interested in identifying factors that enable
and disable consumers in making easier choices and having better experiences.
To that end, in one of her projects, she examines how an interruption between the
choice [of a product] and the purchase stages can decrease incidence of purchase,
by ‘cooling down’ the consumers’ affect towards hedonic products. In a new
research stream she has embarked upon, Tonietto studies the role of serendipity,
identifying counterfactual thinking as one of its drivers and examining its downstream
consequences. In yet another project, she studies how scheduling leisure activities
can reduce excitement towards them. This work demonstrates that scheduling
temporally structures the otherwise free-flowing leisure tasks and makes them feel
more like work, which then decreases reported excitement and enjoyment with such
activities. This joint work with Selin A. Malkoc was recently awarded Best Paper at the

Matteo is a PhD candidate in marketing at London Business

Particularly, Matteo’s dissertation examines how knowledge
of a customer-centric design process affects consumers.
Companies often chose to communicate to consumers that
the design of their products is the result of a customer-centric approach. Matteo’s
research shows that such information increases consumer’s sense of power and, as
a consequence, it can have negative effects on product evaluations. For example,
consumers tend to judge a far brand extension more harshly when a brand claims a
customer-centric approach. Originally from Italy, Matteo received a bachelor’s degree
and master in industrial design from Politecnico of Milano. After four years as product
designer he moved to United States thanks to a Fulbright scholarship, where he

research interests, and the topic of my dissertation, is the
impact of curiosity on consumer behavior. In my dissertation,
I explore whether states of curiosity affect consumption of
information in different and unrelated domains, whether states
of curiosity also trigger effects in domains unrelated to information consumption
(e.g. eating behavior) and vice versa (i.e. whether a state of hunger can enhance
information consumption) and whether, how, when and why the secrecy cues (often
used in marketing, e.g. Coca Cola’s Secret Formula) enhance consumer perceptions
and buying behavior. My other research interests include time perception, embodied
cognition, and the influence of language on consumer behavior. Prior to entering the
PhD program, I graduated with a Master of Business Engineering from KU Leuven,
