Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conjoint analysis is probably the most significant development in marketing research in the past few decades. It can be described as a set of techniques ideally suited to studying customers’ decision-making processes and determining tradeoffs. Though this book is oriented towards methods and applications of conjoint analysis in marketing, conjoint methods are also applicable for other business and social sciences. After an introduction to the basic ideas of conjoint analysis the book describes the steps involved in designing a ratings-based conjoint study, it covers various methods for estimating partworth functions from preference ratings data, and dedicates a chapter on methods of design and analysis of conjoint-based choice experiments, where choice is measured directly. Chapter 5 describes several methods for handling a large number of attributes. Chapters 6 through 8 discuss the use of conjoint analysis for specific applications like product and service design or product line decisions, product positioning and market segmentation decisions, and pricing decisions. Chapter 9 collates miscellaneous applications of marketing mix including marketing resource allocation or store location decisions. Finally, Chapter 10 reviews more recent developments in experimental design and data analysis and presents an assessment of future developments.

Download or read book Conjoint Measurement written by Anders Gustafsson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by Paul E. Green I am honored and pleased to respond to authors request to write a Fore word for this excellent collection of essays on conjoint analysis and related topics. While a number of survey articles and sporadic book chapters have appeared on the subject, to the best of my knowledge this book represents the first volume of contributed essays on conjoint analysis. The book re flects not only the geographical diversity of its contributors but also the variety and depth of their topics. The development of conjoint analysis and its application to marketing and business research is noteworthy, both in its eclectic roots (psychometrics, statistics, operations research, economics) and the fact that its development reflects the efforts of a large variety of professionals -academics, market ing research consultants, industry practitioners, and software developers. Reasons for the early success and diffusion of conjoint analysis are not hard to find. First, by the early sixties, precursory psychometric techniques (e.g., multidimensional scaling and correspondence analysis, cluster analy sis, and general multivariate techniques) had already shown their value in practical business research and application. Second, conjoint analysis pro vided a new and powerful array of methods for tackling the important problem of representing and predicting buyer preference judgments and choice behavior-clearly a major problem area in marketing.

Download or read book Customer Oriented Product Design written by Cengiz Kahraman and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-19 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive reference guide to customer-oriented product design and intelligence. It provides readers with the necessary intelligent tools for designing customer-oriented products in contexts characterized by incomplete information or insufficient data, where classical product design approaches cannot be applied. The respective chapters, written by prominent researchers, explain a wealth of both basic and advanced concepts including fuzzy QFD, fuzzy FMEA, the fuzzy Kano model, fuzzy axiomatic design, fuzzy heuristics-based design, conjoint analysis-based design, and many others. To foster reader comprehension, all chapters include relevant numerical examples or case studies. Taken together, they form an excellent reference guide for researchers, lecturers, and postgraduate students pursuing research on customer-oriented product design. Moreover, by extending all the main aspects of classical customer-oriented product design to its intelligent and fuzzy counterparts, the book presents a dynamic snapshot of the field that is expected to stimulate new directions, ideas, and developments.

Download or read book R for Marketing Research and Analytics written by Chris Chapman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a complete introduction to the power of R for marketing research practitioners. The text describes statistical models from a conceptual point of view with a minimal amount of mathematics, presuming only an introductory knowledge of statistics. Hands-on chapters accelerate the learning curve by asking readers to interact with R from the beginning. Core topics include the R language, basic statistics, linear modeling, and data visualization, which is presented throughout as an integral part of analysis. Later chapters cover more advanced topics yet are intended to be approachable for all analysts. These sections examine logistic regression, customer segmentation, hierarchical linear modeling, market basket analysis, structural equation modeling, and conjoint analysis in R. The text uniquely presents Bayesian models with a minimally complex approach, demonstrating and explaining Bayesian methods alongside traditional analyses for analysis of variance, linear models, and metric and choice-based conjoint analysis. With its emphasis on data visualization, model assessment, and development of statistical intuition, this book provides guidance for any analyst looking to develop or improve skills in R for marketing applications.

Download or read book Application of conjoint analysis in agricultural economics research written by Veerabhadrappa Bellundagi and published by Amazon Publishers, USA. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conjoint Analysis is a statistical technique where respondents ranked preferences for different offers are decomposed to determine the person’s inferred utility function for each attribute and the relative importance of each attribute. It is a versatile marketing research technique that can provide valuable information for new product development and forecasting, market segmentation and pricing decisions, advertising and distribution, competitive analysis and repositioning. The aims of conjoint analysis were to identify attribute combinations which confer the highest utility to the consumers and to establish the relative importance of attributes in terms of their contribution to total utility. There are 5 basic steps to be taken by a Researcher interested in applying conjoint analysis namely Problem formulation, Determining the product profile, Sampling plan, Data collection and Analysis and interpretation of the results. Conjoint measurement is based on the assumptions that a product can be described according to levels of a set of attributes and the consumer’s overall judgment in respect to that product is based on these attributes level. This analysis is based on three models like Part -Worth Model, Vector Model and Ideal Point Model. An attempt was made to analyze the consumer preference of ragi using conjoint analysis in Bengaluru and Vijayapura districts of Karnataka. The results reveal that, among all the attributes of ragi studied in Bengaluru urban, fineness was found to be most important and first consideration of consumers accounting for 23.80 per cent of relative importance with superfine ragi having the utility of 1.45. In case of Bengaluru rural, price was found to be most important and first deliberation, accounting for 30.60 per cent of relative importance.Among all the attributes studied in ragi in Vijayapura urban, colour was found to be most significant and first consideration, accounting for 30.33 per cent. In case of Vijayapura rural, fineness was found to be the first contemplation and most important, accounting for 33.91 per cent of relative importance. Dhamotharan et. al. (2015), conducted a study using conjoint analysis to analyze consumers’ preferences for geographic indications (GI) bananas. The results show that consumers prefer GI bananas for their medicinal properties, natural production method, and lower price premium.Mangala (2010), conducted a study on Impact of food retail chains on producers, consumers and retailers. The results showed that, among all the attributes studied, quality of the produce found to have the highest relative importance of 33.8 per cent, with a preference for premium quality (utility value 2.77). Importance of 26.89 per cent was given to location of the outlet, with preference for nearness of the shop had utility value 2.16.Consumers are becoming more aware of the quality attributes of different commodities they are consuming, and consequently are choosing products that closely match their tastes and preferences. Demand for food products has increased among the consumers for a variety of reasons: unique quality, locality, supporting local producers. Researchers and managers in agricultural and food industries often face problems relating to new product development, forecasting, market segmentation and pricing decisions, advertising and distribution, competitive analysis and repositioning. So a conjoint measurement study can assist them in solving these problems.
