Abstract

ABSTRACT
Consumer behavior differs due to many factors such as the environment, lifestyle, life expectancy, income level and education level. One way to understand and categorize consumers is to make comparisons according to their age generations. Each generation is thought to have their own expectations, way of understanding life and behaviors, and consumers are categorized and defined accordingly. This categorization, which is frequently used in the field of marketing, guides researches. These developments lead to a more in-depth investigation of consumers. In the communication process, a number of methods are used in order to increase the effectiveness of the message intended to be given to consumers in television advertisements. Purpose of the research is to measure whether consumers' tendency towards nostalgia, perception of advertising performance, post-advertisement emotions, brand heritage perceptions and post-advertisement attitudes differ after watching nostalgic television commercials by age generations. For this purpose, 410 participants were reached by using the convenience sampling method and a questionnaire form consisting of 43 questions was applied with face-to-face interview and online participation methods. It has been determined that customers’ proness to nostalgia differ depending on their age generations. Furthermore, it has been observed that the nostalgic advertising performance perception and post-advertisement attitude also differ depending on generations and the highest perception has been observed in the 53-71 age range which is also named as the baby-boomer generation. No significant difference was found between consumers' post-advertisement emotions and brand legacy perception depending on generations.

Abstract

Tüketici davranışları içinde bulunulan çevre, yaşam tarzı, hayattan beklenti, gelir düzeyi ve eğitim durumu gibi birçok etmen sebebiyle farklılıklar gösterebilmektedir. Tüketicileri anlamanın ve kategorize edebilmenin bir yolu ise tüketicinin içinde bulunduğu yaş kuşağına göre karşılaştırmalar yapmaktır. Her kuşağın kendine has beklentileri, hayatı kavrayış biçimi ve davranış şekilleri olduğu düşünülmekte ve buna göre tüketiciler kategorize edilip tanımlanmaktadır. Pazarlama alanında sıklıkla başvurulan bu kategorizasyon araştırmalara yön vermekte, yaşanan bu gelişmeler, tüketicilerin daha derinlemesine araştırılmasına ışık tutmaktadır. İletişim sürecinde televizyon reklamlarında tüketicilere verilmek istenen mesajın etkinliğini artırmak amacıyla birtakım metotlardan yararlanılmaktadır. Araştırmanın amacı; tüketicilerin izledikleri nostaljik televizyon reklamları sonrası, nostaljiye olan eğilimlerinin, reklam performans algısının, reklam sonrası duygularının, marka miras algılarının ve reklam sonrası tutumlarının farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığını yaş kuşaklarına göre ölçmektir. Bu amaçla 410 katılımcıya kolayda örnekleme yöntemi kullanılarak ulaşılmış ve 43 sorudan oluşan anket formu yüz yüze görüşme yöntemi ve çevrimiçi katılım ile uygulanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde MANOVA’dan yararlanılmıştır. Tüketicilerin nostaljiye eğilimli olma durumunun yaş kuşaklarına göre farklılık gösterdiği belirlenmiştir. Nostaljik reklam performans algısı ve reklam sonrası tutumun da yaş kuşaklarına bağlı olarak farklılaştığı ve bu algının en yüksek olduğu kuşağın 53-71 yaş aralığında olan bebek patlaması kuşağında olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Tüketicilerin yaş kuşaklarına göre reklam sonrası duyguları ve marka miras algısı arasında anlamlı bir farklılık saptanmamıştır.
