PYSCHOLOGICAL TRAITS EFFECT ON BRAND ATTITUDE AND PURCHASE INTENTION: CONSUMER KNOWLEDGE AS MODERATION
EFFECT
ABSTRACT
The focus of this study is to examine the attitude and purchase intention towards a certain luxury brand by analyzing the psychological traits affecting them including value consciousness, susceptibility to normative influence, and need for uniqueness. This research is quantitative descriptive interpretive. Researcher suggests that to increase brand attitude and purchase intention, Louis Vuitton managers should focus on the susceptibility to normative influence trait. Keywords: Brand attitude, purchase intention, susceptibility to normative influence, need for uniqueness, value consciousness Introduction
The luxury retailers are growing bigger nowadays. It is not just Western Europe that
becomes the main target for luxury goods, many luxury goods companies are now
expanding to Latin America, Asia Pacific, and Africa because of the burgeoning
middle class (Wang, 2013). Euromonitor (2013) predicted that Asia Pacific would be
the biggest region in the world for luxury goods by 2018. It is not just China and India
that hugely contributes to the growth of luxury consumption, but also emerging Asian
markets like Indonesia. Indonesia middle class is raising every year and has hugely
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
contributes to the economy growth because compared to other class, this class is the
one that has a large portion of consumption.
In addition to rising number of middle class consumers, the rising number of luxury
brand stores also shows that there is a huge potential of luxury goods consumption by
Indonesian consumers. It is not just the elite and super-wealthy class that becomes the
target of luxury brands, the emerging middle class also become another important
target because they can afford luxury goods. These make Indonesia has a very
attractive value proposition in its economy because, unlike other Asia “tiger”
countries, Indonesia economy has a strong consumption.
However, there are several factors that distinguish Indonesian market from the other
market. The culture of Indonesia consumers set them apart from other consumers.
According to Oxford Business Group 2013 report, the Internet and social media trends
keeps Indonesia consumers up to date with the latest trend globally, which makes
Indonesia consumers have a high brand awareness (Oxford Business Group, 2013).
Indonesia consumers are also becoming much more sophisticated, which means
buyers demand better quality products (Oxford Business Group, 2013).
Whilst Indonesia market is very potential, those facts provide several challenges for
luxury retailers in Indonesia. Indonesia consumers are very brand conscious and it is
not clear which brand is perceived as the best-known brand for a certain product
category, for example Louis Vuitton for suitcases. Indonesia consumers are also
becoming much more sophisticated, which means buyers become more critical of the
brands, products and marketing strategies that have worked well in recent years
(Oxford Business Groups, 2013).
The purpose of this study is to provide understanding of the Indonesia consumers’
behavior of luxury brands based on their psychological traits. There are a substantial
amount of traits that can affect the behavior, however to evaluate the behavior of
Indonesian consumers towards a luxury brand, researcher focus on three main traits
based on variety of previous researches (e.g., Amaldoss & Jain, 2005; Clark et.al.,
2007 in Zhan & He, 2011). These traits are value consciousness, susceptibility to
normative influence, and need for uniqueness. Based on the research, these traits have
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
effect on brand attitude that eventually leads to purchase intention. Therefore, the
problem formulation of this thesis is to analyze the effect of these three traits on brand
attitude and purchase intention.
The primary goal of this study is to examine the behavior of Indonesia consumers
towards a certain luxury brand. The problem formulations of this study are:
1. How is the effect of VC and brand attitude?
2. How is the effect of SNI and brand attitude?
3. How is the effect of NFU and brand attitude?
4. How is the effect of NFU and consumers knowledge on brand attitude?
5. How is the effect of brand attitude and purchase intention?
Therefore, based on the problem formulation above, the purposes of this research are:
1. To analyze the effect of value consciousness on brand attitude.
2. To analyze the effect of susceptibility to normative influence on brand attitude.
3. To analyze the effect of need for uniqueness on brand attitude.
4. To analyze the moderation effect of consumers knowledge on need for
uniqueness and brand attitude.
5. To analyze the effect of brand attitude on purchase intentions.
Theoretical Analysis Attitude can be defined a composite of a consumer’s beliefs, feelings, and behavioral
intention toward some object within the context of marketing (Perner, 2010).
According to Khan et al. (2012), purchase intention is the decision making process
used by consumers relating to a market deal in the form of purchase of products and
services from one seller or group of sellers. Lichtenstein et al. (1990) define value
consciousness as “a concern for paying low prices, subject to some quality
constraint”. The definition qualifies the technical notion of value as the ratio of quality
to price with a quality constraint, acknowledging the fact that for some consumers a
certain quality might be beyond their requirements.
Normative influence is an enduring trait in which individuals tend to conform to the
expectations of other members of a reference group in order to enhance their social
image (Burnkrant and Cousineau, 1975 in Ling, 2009). In psychological terms, the
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
normative influence involves conforming in order to be accepted or liked by a group,
not necessarily because one actually believes the things one is doing or saying
(Fournier, 2009). Consumer need for uniqueness is a tendency to actively pursue
dissimilarity from other members from other members of a reference group through
product and brand purchases as a means of developing a distinct self-image and
social-image (Tian et al., 2001 in Zhan & He, 2011).
Methodology This study uses descriptive cross-sectional research design, because the research has a
specific hypothesis and the data collection is conducted one time at one period to all
population samples. In addition, this study is quantitatively oriented. Data collection
for this study will be conducted through primary and secondary data collection. The
primary data will be gathered through questionnaire.
The population of this study is both male and female aged above 20 years old that
have the knowledge of luxury brands and Louis Vuitton. Based on Hair et al. (1998),
the sample needed for this study is 135 derived from the number of observed variable
multiplied by five. Since this study has moderating effect, the number is multiplied by
2 making this study needs the minimum of 270 respondents. In gathering population
sample, researcher uses combination of non-probability sampling that is convenience
and purposive samplings. Purposive sampling is a form of convenience sampling in
which the population elements are selected based on the judgment of the research
(Malhotra, 2007) while, convenience sampling attempts to obtain a sample of
convenient elements (Malhotra, 2007).
Before processing the data obtained through questionnaires, researcher conducts
initial screening questionnaire to determine whether or not to further process the
questionnaires. Pretesting is performed to test the feasibility of the questionnaire that
will be distributed to the respondents by using validity and reliability indicators. After
pretesting shows that the questionnaire is valid and reliable, then researcher distribute
the main questionnaire. In analyzing main questionnaire data to test the proposed
hypothesis, researcher uses Structural Equation Model (SEM) version 8.8. SEM is a
general approach to multivariate data analysis.
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
In the SEM analysis, researcher uses two-step approach, or respesification, that is the
test is conducted twice if the first results have indication that the model test value is
still not good. To analyze the moderation effect, researcher uses multi sample model
and there are six steps in conducting multi sample model, they are:
1. Estimation of Research Model
This first step contains estimation process to research model by using all
sample data. Then this process will results in research model with the best
fitness level.
2. Distributions of Samples into Groups
The second step is related to the distribution of sample data into groups in
accordance to the moderating variable’s category.
3. Base Line Model
The third step contains the formation and base model estimation for each
group. This research model estimation is conducted separately using input data
for each group.
4. Multi-Sample Model Estimates with the same Parameter Set
The forth step is related to the estimations to multisample model, in which the
base model of all groups is placed on a program and simultaneously estimated.
In this step, the parameters values of model base are set to the same value. The
results of estimation will show that all parameter from base model is the same
for all the groups.
5. Estimation of Multi Sample Model with different set of Parameter
The fifth step is similar to the fourth step, however there are several parameters
that will be analyzed freely estimated into each group. We will also note the
value of X2 and degree of freedom.
6. Evaluation of Parameter Differences between each Group
The last step contains the calculations of value differences between X2 and
degree of freedom that are resulted from the forth and fifth step. From the X2
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
value of ΔX2 with df of Δdf then we get the results of p value. If the p value is
below 0.05, then the differences between analyzed each groups parameters is
significant. However, if p value is above 0.05 then the differences between
analyzed each groups parameters is not significant
As for the hypothesis testing, this study uses two-tailed prediction. A two-tailed t-test
is a statistical test in which the critical area of a distribution is two sided and tests
whether a sample is either greater than or less than a certain range of values
(Investopedia).
Results
The results of SEM analysis are as below:
• The effect of value consciousness towards brand attitude is significant with the
T-value of 1.76 > 1.65.
• The positive effect of susceptibility to normative influence towards brand
attitude is significant with the T-value of 3.10 > 1.65.
• The effect of need for uniqueness towards brand attitude is not significant with
T-value of 0.72 < 1.65.
• The moderation relationship of consumer knowledge between need for
uniqueness and brand attitude is not significant based on the analysis
comparisons of moderation effect. It is not significant because there’s no
difference in chi-square of structural model and structural coefficient.
• The positive effect of brand attitude towards purchase intention is significant
with the T-value of 7.24 > 1.65.
Analysis and Discussion Based on the results above, researcher explains further the result of hypothesis:
a. H1: Value consciousness affects brand attitude positively The coefficient results for value consciousness effect towards brand attitude show a T-
value of 1.76, which means the effect of value consciousness towards brand attitude is
significant with T-value above 1.65. Therefore, hypothesis H1 is accepted.
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
Lichtenstein et al. (1990) define value consciousness as “a concern for paying low
prices, subject to some quality constraint”. Although luxury items are generally
expensive, the benefits they provide, especially the psychological benefits derived
from the consumption experience, still make those items highly desirable options
(Belk, 1988). Thus, if a consumer is aware of the value or benefits that Louis Vuitton
provides, he or she will use the product even though it is expensive.
In addition to the result of t-test value, the result of value consciousness variable’s
descriptive analysis scores a high/good value. This result suggested that, overall;
Jabodetabek consumers have a high level of value consciousness. The descriptive
result of brand attitude scores a fairly high/good value, which means Jabodetabek
consumers regard Louis Vuitton as fairly desirable. Based on these descriptive results,
researcher summarized that consumers do have a high consciousness of luxury
products value and Louis Vuitton products are perceived as fairly high in delivering
those luxury value. To summarize, since this hypothesis is accepted, it means that
there’s an effect between Jabodetabek consumers’ value consciousness towards brand
attitude on Louis Vuitton.
b. H2: Susceptibility to normative influence affects brand attitude positively
The coefficient results for susceptibility to normative influence effect towards brand
attitude show a T-value of 3.10, which means the effect of susceptibility to normative
influence towards brand attitude is positive with T-value above 1.65. Therefore,
hypothesis H2 is accepted.
SNI, in consumption, is a trait reflected by a consumer’s tendency to conform to the
expectations of other regarding purchase decisions in order to be identified with those
others, to gain rewards, or to avoid punishment from others (Bearden, Netemeyer, &
Teel, 1989 in Zhan & He, 2011). One of the main benefits of luxury products is that it
can enhance the user’s social status, therefore making SNI as an important trait to
measure brand attitude.
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
The descriptive analysis results also show that susceptibility to normative influence
scores a fairly high average of mean, which indicates that Jabodetabek consumers have
a fairly high level of tendency to conform to the expectations of other members of a
reference group in order to enhance their social image. Thus, researcher concluded that
consumers have a fairly high conformity to the ideals of their reference group, and
they have a good attitude towards Louis Vuitton as a brand that can enhance their
social image.
Based on the findings, it can be concluded that the potential consumers of Louis
Vuitton in Jabodetabek conformed to the expectations of their reference group by
developing a certain attitude towards brand Louis Vuitton.
c. H3: Need for uniqueness affects brand attitude
The coefficient result of need-for-uniqueness’ positive effect towards brand attitude is
not significant with T-value of 0.72 < 1.65. Therefore, the hypothesis H3 is rejected.
Need for uniqueness affects brand attitude when consumers wants to alleviate
similarity to others, thus consumers tend to engage in self-distinguishing behavior by
purchasing exclusive brand, that is luxury brands.
The descriptive analysis results of need for uniqueness show that Indonesian
consumers have a fairly high need for uniqueness and also a fairly high/fairly good
attitude towards Louis Vuitton. Even though both show a fairly high tendency, t-test
value shows that need for uniqueness does not have significant effect in the attitude
towards Louis Vuitton for the respondents. Researcher thinks there are several reasons
why this hypothesis is rejected.
First, there might be some mediating between NFU and brand attitude, as Tian et al.
(2001) stated ‘consumers established their uniqueness through various uniqueness-
seeking behaviors in response to environmental inputs that increase or decrease their
perceptions of similarity to others’. Therefore, it is possible that in that seeking
behavior, consumers find Louis Vuitton to be increasing their perception of similarity
to others. Thus, even though results found that consumers have a fairly good brand
attitude to Louis Vuitton, they don’t think of Louis Vuitton as a brand that can deliver
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
uniqueness they need. The high level of counterfeiting and knockoffs might also be the
reason.
d. H4: Consumer knowledge moderates the relationship between need for uniqueness and brand attitude
The comparisons of model A, model B, and model C in sections 4.7 shows that there
is a no difference between low-knowledge and high-knowledge consumers in NFU.
The effect of NFU on brand attitude was not significant for the low-knowledge group
(T-value = -0.09, p<0.05), the same as high-knowledge group. Therefore, consumer
knowledge does not have any relationship between need for uniqueness and brand
attitude.
To summarize, the relationship between consumer’s need for uniqueness and brand
attitude is expected to depend on consumer knowledge about luxury brand. The
hypothesis of “Consumer knowledge moderates the relationship between need for
uniqueness and brand attitude” is not accepted, thus this means consumer knowledge
does not influence consumer need for uniqueness towards certain brand.
e. H5: Brand attitude positively affects purchase intention
The coefficient results for brand attitude effect towards purchase intention show a T-
value of 7.24, which means the effect of value consciousness towards brand attitude is
positive with T-value above 1.65. Therefore, hypothesis H5 is accepted.
To fully explain the result of H5 hypothesis analysis, researcher briefly explains the
definition of brand attitude and purchase intention as already been explained in chapter
2, Phelps & Hoy (1996) define purchase intention as the likeliness for an individual to
purchase a product, or an individual’s intention to buy a specific brand in which they
have chosen for themselves after certain evaluation (Laroche and Zhou, 1996 in Ling,
2009). There are many factors that influence consumer’s purchase intention including
brand advertisement, brand knowledge, behavioral intention, and past experience
about the brand (Khan et al. 2012). In this study, these stated factors are analyzed in
the form of brand attitude.
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
The analysis of this study shows that there is a significant effect of brand attitude
towards purchase intention. This means the result is supporting the findings of prior
studies where they found there’s a strong and positive relationship between attitude
and intention in a wide variety of settings (e.g., Dabholkar & Bagozzi, 2002;
Sheppard, Hartwick, & Warshaw, 1988 in Zhan & He, 2011 in Zhan and He, 2011).
Therefore, higher evaluation leads to higher purchase likelihood.
Summary
The goal of this thesis is to examine the effect of psychological traits to brand attitude
and purchase intention on the Louis Vuitton’s potential consumers in Jabodetabek
area. Here are the summaries based on the research and analysis that have been
conducted:
1. Value Consciousness affect brand attitude positively
This research has proved the positive effect of value consciousness towards brand
attitude because the T- value is above the minimum value. Therefore, researcher
concludes Indonesian consumers are conscious of Louis Vuitton luxury values despite
the high prices; and it has a positive effect to their attitude on Louis Vuitton brand to
be more favorable.
2. Susceptibility to Normative Influence affect brand attitude positively
This research has proven that the psychological trait of susceptibility to normative
influence of individuals in Jabodetabek does have effect on brand attitude since the T-
value of SNI that is above 1.65. Thus, researcher concludes that the higher consumers
conform to their reference group, the more favorable their attitude towards Louis
Vuitton. This can also suggested that Jabodetabek consumers might be influence more
by the social than by the functional benefits of luxury goods.
3. Need for Uniqueness doesn’t affect brand attitude positively
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
This research has proven that need for uniqueness of consumer doesn’t have
any positive effect to his or her brand attitude. This can be seen by the T-value that is
below 1.65. Therefore, researcher concludes that no matter how high the level of need
for uniqueness of a consumer, it doesn’t affect his or her attitude towards Louis
Vuitton to be more favorable.
4. Consumer Knowledge doesn’t moderate the relationships of NFU and
brand attitude
This study founds that consumer knowledge does not have a moderation effect
to all of the variables. This suggested that consumer knowledge doesn’t have any
effect on psychological traits relationships toward brand attitude.
5. Brand Attitude affect purchase intention positively
The hypothesis of brand attitude affect purchase intention positively is accepted.
Therefore, respondents who have more positive attitude towards Louis Vuitton have
more favorable attitude towards intention of purchasing Louis Vuitton products.
Suggestion
a. Managerial Suggestions
• Segmenting and Targeting
This study provides some information about demographics such as gender and
income, and can be a little useful in segmenting consumers. Beside
segmentation, the relationships between VC, CNI, and brand attitude also
provide insight on how to position Louis Vuitton in Indonesia and to
communicate with targeted consumers.
• Suggestions to Utilize Susceptibility of Normative Influence
The results show that SNI trait has a significant influence in brand attitude. In
luxury goods consumption, the reference group such as family, friends,
colleagues and spokesperson of the brand plays important part. These reference
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
group influence consumers’ subjective norms and also attitude towards the
brand and the purchase intention.
Since reference group is proven to be influential in defining social norms,
marketers need to reconsider how to best present the reference groups in
marketing communication. Therefore, it is important for marketers to
recognize the importance of significant reference group for luxury goods
purchase decision-making. These results imply that building a good
relationships with the significant reference group of target consumers may be a
highly effective marketing strategy. Researcher would suggest marketers to
consider impacting the target consumers through interpersonal channel such as
social media and word-of-mouth strategy.
In addition, marketers can also feature movie starts or fashion models that are
popular or known among Indonesian consumers. Marketers need to understand
how these endorsers relate to social norms in Indonesia.
• Counterfeits and Knockoffs
This research found that consumers think Louis Vuitton has too many
counterfeits products. Counterfeit and knockoffs impose the same penalty on
genuine item consumers: They threaten the exclusivity that accompanies the
purchase of a premium brand (Commuri, 2009). In other words, counterfeits
diminishing the value of Louis Vuitton. Therefore, researcher would suggest
marketers to strengthen the law of counterfeits and knock-offs especially in
Indonesia. Researcher also suggests marketers to create a design that is hard to
copy.
b. Suggestions for Next Research
The previous sections have already discussed the findings and managerial suggestions
of this research. The limitation of this research also has been discussed in Chapter 1.
Both findings and limitations of this research have been taken into account in making
suggestions for the next research. Below are the suggestions for next research:
Efek sifat sifat psikologis pada..., Clara Sarah, FE UI, 2014
1. Broaden the scope of analysis, not just in Jabodetabek. The next research
should analyze beside first-tier city because the characteristics of the people are
very different.
2. Next researcher can change the case study to another luxury brand such as
Versace or Chanel. The next researcher can also change the case study into
another luxury categories such as luxury automobiles.
