Abstract

For this purpose, the main population of the research was the consumers in the province of Istanbul. As a result of the research, it has been determined that the image of the country affects the beliefs about the product and the willing to buy, and the beliefs about the product is effective on willing to purchase. It was also determined that the image of the country differs according to the country groups. If no product groups are considered, U.S. is the first place, G.Korea in second place, and China country in third place in terms of high images. However, when the mobile phone product group is taken into consideration, it is determined that Y generation is not perceiving the images of three  countries differently.
