What motivates your consumption behavior?
Think about 2 or 3 products/services you

Consumer Motivation
Motivation: It is the reason for behavior!
• an unobservable inner force that stimulates and
compels a behavioral response and provides
specific direction to that response.
Goal: consumer’s desired end state
Drive: degree of consumer arousal
Want: manifestation of consumer need
Three Types of Motivational Conflicts

of desired product

undesirable alternatives

Summary of Psychological Motives Relevant to Marketing:
Opponent-Process Theory
Optimum Stimulation Levels
Hedonic Experiences
Risk: Seek or Avoid
Attribute Causality
Opponent Process Theory
• A stimulus eliciting an immediate positive or negative emotion is
followed by a feeling opposite to that initial emotion
Optimum Stimulation Theory
• Desire to maintain an optimal level of stimulation motivates action
Hedonic Experiences
• Consumption of products/services designed to create fantasies,
enhance sensory stimulation, or elicit emotional reactions
• Related to optimum stimulation levels
Maintain Behavioral Freedom
Motivation to Maintain Behavioral Freedom
• People want to maintain a sense of freedom
Psychological Reactance
• negative motivational state that results when a person’s
behavioral freedom has been threatened
Two types of threats can lead to reactance:
a) Social threats involving external pressure from other people to induce a
consumer to do something
– Scarcity appeals: “limited time offer, limited supply
– Pushy salespeople
b) Impersonal threats are barriers that restrict the ability to buy a particular product
or service
– Shortage of a product due to the possibility that someone else will buy it
– Potential rise in the price of a product causes a desire to buy now
Avoid or Seek Risk
Perceived Risk – consumer’s perception of the overall negativity of a
course of action
- consists of negative outcomes and probability of these outcomes
occurring
Risks include:
- financial
- physical
- performance
- psychological
- social
- time

pitch, ads) impacts their judgments, decisions, and purchase choices
