Comparing factor analytical and circumplex models of brand personality in brand positioning

Competition has never been greater, which means it is more important than ever that organizations assess their brand management strategies, including brand personality management. However, little empirical research addresses the brand personality concept, particularly its role in product evaluation. An exception, which views brand personality as a set of human personality characteristics associated with a brand, has been criticized for its use of a factor analytical approach. An alternative approach posits that the brand represents a relationship partner with which the consumer may choose to engage; it corresponds to the interpersonal circumplex approach to personality modeling. The present study compares these two approaches by developing brand positioning maps and predicting consumer outcomes. The results support the factor approach in a purely quantitative sense, but the circumplex approach offers both a richer qualitative explanation of the findings by encompassing a broad spectrum of traits and a more diagnostic prediction of consumer outcomes. The alternative conceptualization of brand personality contained in these results should be of interest to brand managers. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Tick sizes and relative rates of price discovery in stock,futures, and options markets: Evidence from the Taiwan stock exchange

This study examines the competition in price discovery among stock index, index futures, and index options in Taiwan. The price‐discovery ability of the Taiwan Top 50 Tracker Fund, an exchange‐traded fund based on the Taiwan 50 index is examined. The authors find that, after the minimum tick size in the stock market decreases, the bid–ask spreads of the component stocks of the stock index and the Taiwan Top 50 Tracker Fund get lower, and the contribution of the spot market to price discovery increases. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

收入、健康与资本回报对农户投资的影响因素研究

本文根据农村经济发展和农村家庭投资改善的实际,将农村家庭的实物资产分为生活消费型和生产投资型,利用问卷数据,构建二分类因变量,建立Logisitc模型来重点考察家庭收入、家庭医疗支出和农村金融市场资本回报率等三大因素对目前农村家庭投资活动的影响.结论证实了收入对于农村家庭投资的显著性影响,但农村家庭的健康因素和资本回报率状况对东西部农村家庭的影响不一致.研究结论对于当前加快农村经济发展、深化农村金融改革等相关政策制定具有一定的参考价值.
