11) What is the self-concept? How do Eastern and Western cultures differ in the ways in which they view the self?
Answer: The self-concept refers to the attitude a person holds toward him or herself.
Both Eastern and Western cultures see the self as divided into an inner, private self and an outer, public self. But where these conceptions of self differ is in terms of which part is seen as the “real you”: Western culture tends to subscribe to an independent interpretation of the self, which emphasizes the inherent separateness of each individual; non-Western cultures, in contrast, tend to focus on an interdependent self, where a person’s identity is largely defined by the relationships he or she has with others.

37) What is self-esteem? How do persons low or high in self-esteem differ?
Answer: Self-esteem refers to the positivity of your attitude toward yourself. People with low self-esteem do not expect that they will perform very well, and they will try to avoid embarrassment, failure, or rejection. In contrast, people with high self-esteem expect to be successful, will take more risks, and are more willing to be the centre of attention. Self-esteem is often related to acceptance by others. As you probably remember from your own experience, high school students who hang out in high-status “crowds” seem to have higher self-esteem than their classmates.

38) By day Jason is a busy executive, at home he is a caring father, and on the weekends he is a competitive race-car driver. Using concepts from the textbook, how would you explain these very different manifestations of the self?
Answer: This is an example of “multiple selves.” In a way, each consumer is really a number of different people. We have as many selves as we have different social roles. Depending on the situation, we act differently, use different products and services, and even vary in terms of how much we like ourselves. A person may require a different set of products to play a number of desired roles. One may choose to consume beer with close friends but opt for a sophisticated Chardonnay when in the company of business associates. Each of us plays many roles, and each role has its own script, props, and costumes.
The self can be thought of as having different components or role identities, and only some of these are active at any given time. Some identities (husband, boss, or student) are more central to the self than others, but other identities (stamp collector, dancer, or advocate for the homeless) may be dominant in specific situations.

39) A professor came to class dressed in a formal shirt and tie. He stated that he would like to explain the concept of self. He took off his tie and shirt. Underneath he had on a t-shirt with a picture of a handsome tennis player on the front. Then the professor turned around to show a picture of a cartoon clown on the back. “All of these are who I am,” he said. What point was the professor trying to make, and what did the different dress and icons most likely represent?
Answer: The professor was likely trying to convey the notion of “multiple selves.”

40) Explain the concepts of the ideal and actual selves. How do they differ? How can marketers bridge the gaps between these two selves?
Answer: The ideal self is a person’s conception of how he or she would like to be, while the actual self is our more realistic appraisal of the qualities we do and don’t have. We choose some products because we think they are consistent with our actual self, while we buy others to help us reach an ideal standard.
Products may be purchased because they are believed to be instrumental in helping the consumer achieve the goal of approaching the ideal self.
Students can point out that marketers can highlight discrepancies between the actual and ideal selves, and offer consumers products that help to close the gap between the selves. For example, if the consumer’s ideal self includes being more beautiful, the marketer can offer a product to help fill this desire.

41) Ben is a little nervous about how he will be perceived when he arrives for a job interview. He got his hair cut and wore his most expensive business suit so he would appear more like the person the firm would hire at an executive level. He knows that he “cleans up well” and hopes that will compensate for a weak resume. Explain in terms of symbolic interactionism what Ben is doing.
Answer: The sociological tradition of symbolic interactionism stresses that relationships with other people play a large part in forming the self. This perspective maintains that people exist in a symbolic environment and that the meaning attached to any situation or object is determined by the interpretation of the symbols. As members of society we learn to agree on shared meanings. Thus, we “know” that a red light means stop and that the “golden arches” means fast food.
Like other social objects, the meanings of consumers themselves are defined by social consensus. The consumer interprets his or her own identity, and this assessment is continuously evolving as he or she encounters new situations and people. In symbolic interactionist terms, we negotiate these meanings over time. Essentially, the consumer poses the question, “Who am I in this situation?” The answer to this question is greatly influenced by those around us and is really an answer to the question, “Who do other people think I am?”
In this example, Ben is attempting to create an image of himself that encourages others to view him in this situation as being competent and qualified for the job.

42) Discuss what is meant by the looking-glass self. How is this concept relevant in marketing contexts?
Answer: This process of imagining the reactions of others toward us is known as the looking-glass self. According to this view, a process of reflexive evaluation occurs when an individual attempts to define the self, and it operates as a sort of psychological sonar: We take readings of our own identity by “bouncing” signals off others and trying to project the impression they have of us.
This concept is relevant to marketers because consumers, when contemplating the purchase of a product, often imagine the reactions of others. Students could give examples of how marketers could highlight the social value of their product offerings.

66) How can each level of the extended self be related to marketing?
Answer: Many of the props and settings we use to define our social roles in a sense become a part of our selves. Those external objects that we consider a part of us comprise the extended self, helping form one’s identity. Just about everyone can name a valued possession that has a lot of self “wrapped up” in it, whether this is a treasured photograph, a trophy, an old shirt, a car, or a cat.
Four levels of the extended self are used by consumers to define themselves. These range from very personal objects to places and things that allow people to feel like they are rooted in their environments:
The individual level—Consumers include personal possessions as part of their self-definition, such as cars, jewellery, and favourite clothing.
The family level—This includes the place of residence and furnishings that comprise “our home.”
The community level—There is a sense of neighbourhood or locale used in public self-description and a private sense of belonging.
The group level—Attachments to larger social groups characterize the fourth level; affiliation may be through identification with sports teams, landmarks, monuments.
Marketing connections will vary.

82) Give an example of how food preferences can differ as a function of gender.
Answer: Examples will vary.
Women eat more fruit. Men are more likely to eat meat; as one food writer put it, “Boy food doesn’t grow. It is hunted or killed.” Men are more likely to eat Frosted Flakes or Corn Pops, while women prefer multigrain cereals. Men are big rootbeer drinkers; women account for the bulk of bottled-water sales. And the genders differ sharply in the quantities of food they eat. When researchers at Hershey’s discovered that women eat smaller amounts of candy, the company created a white chocolate confection called Hugs, one of the most successful food introductions of all time. On the other hand, men are more likely to take their food and drink in larger servings.

88) Do the terms “maleness-femaleness” and “masculinity-femininity” mean the same thing? Discuss and include gender-typed products in your answer.
Answer: The issue is gender versus sexuality. Gender differences are biologically determined, whereas the subjective feelings of sexuality are socially learned. Culturally, males are often controlled by agentic goals that stress self-assertion and mastery. Females are taught to value communal goals such as affiliation and cooperative relationships.
A person’s biological gender (i.e., male or female) does not totally determine if he or she will exhibit gender-typed traits—characteristics usually associated with one gender or the other. A consumer’s subjective feelings about his or her sexuality are crucial as well. Unlike maleness and femaleness, masculinity and femininity are not biological characteristics. A behaviour that would be considered as masculine in one culture may not necessarily be regarded as such in another culture. Also, products are often gender-typed. That is, they take on masculine or feminine attributes and they may be stereotypically associated by consumers with one gender. The car, for example, has long been thought of as a masculine product.
Androgyny refers to the possession of both masculine and feminine traits, although androgyny can also refer to traits that are neutral. Products that are not gender-typed are considered to be marketable to androgynous people whose mixture of characteristics allows them to function well in a variety of social situations.

89) Greg, a Canadian advertising executive, is responsible for creating an television advertisement for a laundry detergent and definitely wants to feature a woman using the product, mainly because his research indicates that the primary purchasers of this laundry detergent are women. He also notes that these women have a strong masculine component to their personalities. What should be shown in this television advertisement?
Answer: A good answer will highlight the role of androgyny. Androgyny refers to the possession of both masculine and feminine traits. Researchers make a distinction between gender-typed people, who are stereotypically masculine or feminine, and androgynous people, whose mixture of characteristics allows them to function well in a variety of social situations.
Research shows that women with a relatively strong masculine component in their gender-role identity prefer ad portrayals that include non-traditional women. A recommendation could be to show non-traditional women, non-traditional male gender roles, or to highlight a mixture of traits in the advertisement.

90) Discuss the importance of the LGBT market to marketers.
Answer: The proportion of the population that belongs to the category of LGBT consumers is difficult to determine, and efforts to measure this group have been controversial. According to Statistics Canada, the number of reported same-sex couples in Canada rose 42.4 percent from 2006 to 2011. The total number of same-sex couples in 2011 was 64575, and it is likely that the true number in Canada is actually much higher.
One study of readers of gay publications found that, compared to heterosexuals, these readers are almost 12 times more likely to hold professional jobs, twice as likely to own a vacation home, and eight times more likely to own a notebook computer. Additional findings underscore the potential desirability of this segment for marketers: Individuals who identify as being gay are twice as likely as heterosexuals to have attended graduate school, are more concerned about physical fitness and self-improvement, experience more stress in their daily lives, and are much more likely to be self-employed. The trend of appealing to same-sex couples has been increasing, with brands such as Gap, JCrew, and even Tiffany portraying same-sex couples in their marketing communications.

101) How have ideals of beauty in Western culture changed over time?
Answer: Periods of history tend to be characterized by a specific “look” or ideal of beauty. For example, in sharp contrast to today’s emphasis on health and vigour, in the early nineteenth century it was fashionable to appear delicate to the point of looking ill. The poet Keats described the ideal woman of that time as “a milk white lamb that bleats for man’s protection.”
In much of the nineteenth century, the desirable waistline for American women was 18 inches (45 centimetres), a circumference that required the use of corsets pulled so tight that they routinely caused headaches, fainting spells, and possibly even the uterine and spinal disorders common among women of the time. Although modern women are not quite as “straightlaced,” many still endure such indignities as high heels, body waxing, eye lifts, and liposuction. In addition to the millions spent on cosmetics, clothing, health clubs, and fashion magazines, these practices remind us that the desire to conform to current standards of beauty—whether right or wrong—is alive and well.
The ideal body type of Western women has changed radically over time, and these changes have resulted in a realignment of sexual dimorphic markers—those aspects of the body that distinguish between the sexes. For example, using heights and weights from winners of the Miss America pageant, nutrition experts concluded that many beauty queens are in the undernourished range. In the 1920s, contestants had a body mass index (BMI) in the range now considered normal—20 to 25. Since then an increasing number of winners have had BMIs under 18.5, which is the World Health Organization’s standard for undernutrition.

102) Michelle has a poor overall body image. Describe the concept of body cathexis, how it relates to negative perceptions of body image, and how it can alter consumption.
Answer: A person’s feelings about his or her body can be described in terms of body cathexis. Cathexis refers to the emotional significance of some object or idea to a person, and some parts of the body are more central to self-concept than others.
Consumers who have negative feelings about their body often have negative perceptions of body image. One study found that young adults were the most satisfied with their hair and eyes and had the least positive feelings about their waists. These feelings were also related to usage of grooming products. Consumers who were more satisfied with their bodies were more frequent users of such “preening” products as hair conditioner, blow-dryers, cologne, facial bronzer, tooth polish, and pumice soap.

110) Describe how ideals of beauty within a culture motivate consumers to go to great lengths to change aspects of their physical selves. Use examples of how people alter themselves to conform to current ideals of beauty.
Answer: A person’s satisfaction with the physical image s/he presents to others is affected by how closely that image corresponds to the image valued by his or her culture. Ideals of beauty, however, vary radically across cultures and even over time within the same society. Women in particular have worked very hard to conform to the current “look” and attain ideal beauty. Among Western women, today’s “natural look” emphasizes health and vigour. During the 1960s and 1970s, Playboy centrefolds became leaner and more muscular. Protests by feminist groups that there was too much emphasis upon “thinness” and the “waif” look of the early 1990s, leading to eating disorders, seem to be moving Western women toward fuller figures again.
Manifestations of the desire to alter one’s physical self to conform to current ideals of beauty include:
Hair styling—Hair forms the basis for the presentation of self-image, and is a tool to transform or change one’s image.
Fattism—Our society has an obsession with weight and thinness, reinforced by advertising and peers.
Dieting and unrealistic standards—Some believe in outdated height/weight charts instead of being guided by the reality of today’s larger body frames, muscularity, age, and activity level.
Eating disorders—Anorexia and bulimia eating disorders, noted often in white, upper middle-class girls, are evidence of exaggerated concern about desirable body images.
Exercise addiction—Men also show eating disorders, but more often express insecurity about their bodies by becoming addicted to exercise.
Cosmetic surgery—Increasingly, cosmetic surgery is performed (and accepted) by men as well as women. Women use surgery to reduce weight or to increase sexual desirability. Men have used implants for chests and legs.
Body decoration and mutilation—Performed in every culture, body adornment serves purposes other than contributing to ideal beauty. Tattoos and body piercing are one popular form of adornment.

119) The body is adorned or altered in some way in every culture. Decorating the self serves a number of purposes. According to information provided in the text, what are these purposes?
Answer:
∙ To separate group members from non-members: The Chinook Indians of North America pressed the head of a newborn between two boards for a year, permanently altering its shape. In our society, teens go out of their way to adopt distinctive hair and clothing styles that will separate them from adults.
∙ To place the individual in the social organization: Many cultures engage in puberty rites wherein a boy symbolically becomes a man. Young men in Ghana paint their bodies with white stripes to resemble skeletons, symbolizing the death of their child status. In Western culture, this rite may involve some form of mild self-mutilation or engagement in dangerous activities.
∙ To place the person in a gender category: The Tchikrin Indians of South America insert a string of beads in a boy’s lip to enlarge it. Western women wear lipstick to enhance femininity. At the turn of the twentieth century, small lips were fashionable because they represented women’s submissive role at that time. Today, big red lips are provocative and indicate an aggressive sexuality. Some women, including a number of famous actresses and models, receive collagen injections or lip inserts to create large, pouting lips (known in the modelling industry as “liver lips”).
∙ To enhance gender-role identification: The modern use of high heels, which podiatrists agree are a prime cause of knee and hip problems, backaches, and fatigue, can be compared with the traditional Asian practice of foot binding to enhance femininity. As one doctor observed, “When [women] get home, they can’t get their high-heeled shoes off fast enough. But every doctor in the world could yell from now until Doomsday, and women would still wear them.”
∙ To provide a sense of security: Consumers often wear lucky charms, amulets, rabbits’ feet, and so on to protect them from the “evil eye.”
∙ To indicate desired social conduct: The Suya of South America wear ear ornaments to emphasize the importance placed in their culture on listening and obedience.
In Western society, some gay men wear an earring in the left or right ear to signal what role (submissive or dominant) they prefer in a relationship.
∙ To indicate high status or rank: The Hidatsa Indians of North America wear feather ornaments that indicate how many people they have killed. In our society, some people wear glasses with clear lenses, even though they do not have eye problems, to enhance their perceived status.
