2013 Winner of the Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award for Long-Term Impact

Announcement

2013 Winner of the Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award for Long-Term Impact

The European Marketing Academy (EMAC) and the International Journal of Research in Marketing (IJRM) are pleased to announce the 2013 winner of the Steenkamp Award:

Rik Pieters & Luk Warlop (1999). Visual attention during brand choice: The impact of time pressure and task motivation, IJRM Vol 16(1), pages 1-16.

Abstract:

Measures derived from eye-movement data reveal that during brand choice consumers adapt to time pressure by accelerating the visual scanning sequence, by filtering information and by changing their scanning strategy. In addition, consumers with high task motivation filter brand information less and pictorial information more. Consumers under time pressure filter textual ingredient information more, and pictorial information less. The results of a conditional logit analysis reveal that the chosen brand receives significantly more intra-brand and inter-brand saccades and longer fixation durations than non-chosen brands, independent of time pressure and task motivation conditions. Implications for the theory of consumer attention and for pretesting of packaging and shelf lay-outs are discussed.

From the Jury:

The committee selected “Visual Attention During Brand Choice: The Impact of Time Pressure and Task Motivation” by Rik Pieters and Luk Warlop as the recipient of the 2013 Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award for Long Term Impact, in consideration of: (i) the high quality of the paper, reflected among others by the rigor with which its studies were designed and analyzed, (ii) the significant and early contribution the paper made to the literature that studies attention using process data such as eye tracking, (iii) the number of citations received by the paper, (iv) the number votes received by the paper from the IJRM editorial board members.

The committee congratulates the recipients with this important expression of recognition of their outstanding article.

Jury Members:

Olivier Toubia (Columbia University, USA) (chair), Simona Botti (London Business School, UK), Bas Donkers (Erasmus University Rotterdam, The Netherlands), and Roland T. Rust (University of Maryland, USA)

Selection Procedure:

A four-member Award Committee, formed by the IJRM editor and the EMAC VP of Publications, managed the nomination and selection procedure. The members of the committee do not themselves have papers that are eligible for the award.

Papers eligible for the Steenkamp Award are those published in IJRM 10 to 15 years prior to the year the award is being presented. For 2013, these are papers from 1998 to 2003. Nominations were first solicited from EMAC members and IJRM Board members. These papers, with their latest ISI and Google Scholar citations, formed the first-round ballot from which IJRM Board members voted for up to 5 papers. The ten (10) papers with the most votes then formed the shortlist for the second-round of voting in which IJRM Board members chose only one (1) paper. The award committee members then ranked the top papers that emerged as leading contenders from this final round of voting in terms of the criteria named above.

Paper 297: McDonald’s apology over a pig toy: A cultural territorial clash

Guan Cheng Quek, Institute of Policy Studies,

Peter Ling*, RMIT University,

Guan Cheng Quek and Peter Ling presenting McDonald’s apology over a pig toy: A cultural territorial clashAbstract: McDonald’s introduced a modified Chinese zodiac promotion to celebrate Chinese New Year in Singapore in 2010. Instead of the traditional 12 zodiac animals – rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig – McDonald’s replaced the pig symbol with a Cupid toy because Valentine’s Day fell on the same day as Chinese New Year in 2010 and because the restaurant’s Muslim customers do not consume pork. This paper discusses how and why ethnic groups rejected the zodiac promotion through heated discussions in the media. Following a review of literature on cultural sensitivity and hybrid cultural theories, a Foucault-based framework of discipline-ethics-performativity guided this qualitative text analysis of 97 letters in the Straits Times newspaper plus online postings on Asia One and Channel News Asia.

The emerging theory was that there was a cultural territorial clash of discipline structures, ethical moderation, and identity performance. This paper contributes to literature on business in Asia, as there seems to be little research on pig symbolism in Marketing or on the failure of culturally oriented marketing activities. The implication for practice is that the marketing team needs to consider more carefully the fundamental cultural disciplinary structure, ethics responsibility, and identity performativity in a multi-ethnic country. While McDonald’s zodiac promotion appeared not to have upset the Muslims in multi-racial Singapore, it would be interesting to research whether there was any online backlash in Malaysia and Indonesia, which have a higher Muslim population.

ANZMAC Awards–Nominate a Mate

Know an award worthy marketing academic in your department?  We’ve all been there – there’s someone in the department who’s great at teaching or an excellent researcher, but they’re never going to put themselves into the limelight without a little encouragement.

That’s the problem with marketing academics – they tend towards being a humble bunch. Not really prone to celebrating their own success, these stalwarts of the business schools just do the work, and leave the accolades for someone else. This year, ANZMAC would like to recognise the quiet achievers, the unsung research heroes, and the rising stars of academy, and we’re asking for your help.

This is where you come in – we’re bringing in the “nominate a mate” opportunity for you to suggest someone in your department who you think deserves a nomination, and we’ll get in touch to invite them to submit an award. 

Send us an e-mail at [email protected] with their name, department,  which potential prize you think they should be invited to contest, and whether you want your identity known to the nominee (We’re asking for this in an e-mail because the webmaster wants to be able to thank you personally, and shout you a round at the ANZMAC conference drinks). 

So, have a look at the ANZMAC Awards, think about who you know who deserves the nod, and give us a nomination.  We’ll look after the rest.

Congrats: 2012 Winner of the Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award for Long-Term Impact

Congratulations to the esteemed Professor John Rossiter for being awarded the 2012 Winner of the Jan-Benedict E.M. Steenkamp Award for Long-Term Impact

The European Marketing Academy (EMAC) and the International Journal of Research in Marketing (IJRM) are pleased to announce the 2012 winner of the Steenkamp Award

John R. Rossiter (2002). The C-OAR-SE procedure for scale development in marketing. International Journal of Research in Marketing, 19 (4), pp 305-335.

The winning paper for the 2012 J. B. Steenkamp award is “The C-OAR-SE procedure for scale development in marketing,” by John R. Rossiter. It was published in volume 19, issue 4, pp. 305-335 of IJRM in 2002. The award is given to papers published in IJRM that have made a significant long-term impact on the field of marketing.

John Rossiter’s paper proposes a new procedure for the development of scales to measure marketing constructs. The procedure consists of several steps: Construct definition, Object classification, Attribute classification, Rater identification, Scale formation, and Enumeration and reporting (C-OAR-SE). The procedure provides guidance on (i) when to use single-item vs. multiple-item scales and (ii) for multiple-item scales, when to use an index of essential items rather than selecting unidimensional items with a high coefficient alpha. Though it has proved controversial, the paper has helped foster greater attention to the conceptualization, rather than only statistical validation, of operational constructs and measures in marketing.

The committee congratulates the recipient with this important expression of recognition of his outstanding article.

Best Paper: Track 15. Services Marketing

The More Compensation the Better? The Nonlinear Relationship Between Compensation Level and Post-Complaint Satisfaction

Katja Gelbrich. Catholic University Eichstätt-Ingolstadt.
Jana Müller*. Catholic University Eichstätt-Ingolstadt.
Yany Grégoire. HEC Montréal.
Holger Roschk. Catholic University Eichstätt-Ingolstadt.

Keywords: complaint management, post-complaint satisfaction, compensation level, curve progression.

Abstract
This paper examines the curve progression of the relationship between compensation level and post-complaint satisfaction. Drawing on the Law of Diminishing Marginal Utility vs. Prospect Theory, we hypothesize two competing nonlinear curve progressions. Hypotheses are tested through curve estimation procedure based on a 2 by 11 mixed factorial design crossing eleven compensation levels (0% – 200%) and two industries (services vs. consumer goods). For services, the curve appears to be concave: Satisfaction increases to a disproportionally small extent with increasing compensation. For goods, the curve appears to be S-shaped: The highest incremental effect of compensation is reached at about 80% compensation, and the effect becomes negative for compensation greater than 160%. Implications for complaint management theory and practice are discussed.

Conference Paper unavailable. Abridged version:

What is this? Each week until June, ANZMAC will feature one of the Best Track Paper award winners on the site.
