1. 3-1 Chapter 3 Learning and Memory

2. 3-2 The Learning Process Learning refers to a relatively permanent change in behavior that is caused by experience. Learning is an ongoing process and we can learn: –Vicariously by observing events that affect others, –By incidental learning which is unintentional. Behavioral Theory Cognitive TheoryThere are several theories to explain the learning process such as the Behavioral Theory and the Cognitive Theory.

3. 3-3 Behavioral Learning Theories Stimulus Consumer Response Consumer’s Black Box Behavioral Learning Theories Behavioral Learning Theories Assume that Learning Takes Place as the Result of Responses to External Events.

4. 3-4 Behavioral Learning Theory: Classical Conditioning Classical Conditioning Classical Conditioning Occurs When a Stimulus That Elicits a Response is Paired With Another Stimulus That Initially Does Not Elicit a Response on It’s Own. Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS) Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS) Conditioned Stimulus (CS) Conditioned Stimulus (CS) Conditioned Response (CR) Conditioned Response (CR)

6. 3-6 Marketing Applications of Behavioral Learning Principles Behavioral Learning –Brand Equity Repetition –Advertising Wear-Out Conditioned Product Association Stimulus Generalization –Family Branding –Product Line Extension –Licensing –Look-Alike Packaging Stimulus Discrimination

7. 3-7 Behavioral Learning Theory: Instrumental Conditioning Instrumental Conditioning (Operant Conditioning) Instrumental Conditioning (Operant Conditioning) Occurs as the Individual Learns to Perform Behaviors That Produce Positive Outcomes and to Avoid Those That Yield Negative Outcomes. It Occurs in One of the Following Ways: Punishment Positive Reinforcement Negative Reinforcement Extinction

8. 3-8 Instrumental Learning Reinforcement SchedulesReinforcement Schedules –Fixed - Interval –Variable - Interval –Fixed - Ratio –Variable - Ratio Applications of Instrumental ConditioningApplications of Instrumental Conditioning –Reinforcement of Consumption –Frequency Marketing –Frequency Marketing - reinforces regular purchasers by giving them prizes with values that increase along with the amount purchased.

9. 3-9 Cognitive Learning Theory: Observational Learning Consumer’s Attention Must Be Drawn to a Desirable Model Consumer Must Remember What is Said and Done by Model Consumer Must Convert This Information Into Actions Consumer Must be Motivated to Perform These Actions Is Learning Conscious Or Not? Observational Learning Observational Learning Occurs When People Watch the Actions of Others and Note the Reinforcements They Receive From Others. Modeling Imitating the Behavior of Others is Called Modeling:
