II: Consumer Memory
Consider and absorb the following
statements
the ants ate the sweet jelly that was on the table
the ants were in the kitchen
the ants ate the sweet jelly
the ants in the kitchen ate the jelly that was on the
table
the jelly was on the table
the ants in the kitchen ate the jelly

Birthday
Including February 29th there are 366
possible birthdays in a year
A group would need to contain an average of
367 members in order to be absolutely sure
that at least two people shared the same
birthday
How many people on average, would a group
contain in order to be 50% certain of two
people sharing the same birthday?

Recall
Close your eyes and recall a scene in which
you experienced something pleasurable

86
Memory
Memory can be likened to a storage chest in
the brain into which we deposit material and
from which we can withdraw it later if needed.
Occasionally, something gets lost from the
“chest,” and then we say we have forgotten.
Would you say this is a reasonably accurate
description of how memory works?
Yes _____
No _____

Memory
Did the following sentences appear on the
previous slide
the ants ate the jelly which was on the table
the ants in the kitchen ate the sweet jelly which
was on the table
the ants ate the sweet jelly
Indicate the level of confidence in your
answer on a scale of 1 to 5

Goals of this section
Be able to explain the differences between
short-term and long-term memory
Provide business applications for improving
consumers’ recall for an advertiser’s
marketing communications
Consumer Attitudes and Behaviors (2008) (c) Stowe Shoemaker, Ph.D.
89
Memory
Memories are not like copies of our past
experience on deposit in a memory bank
Instead, they are constructed at the time of
withdrawal
The “materials” used in the reconstruction are
logical inferences that fill in missing detail,
associated memories that blend in with
original memory and other information.

Memory
Proof
The only sentence that appeared in Q4 was “the
ants ate the sweet jelly”
The middle sentence can only be derived by
combining separate sentences from the total set
of sentences
If you saw yourself in the scene in Q2, then the
scene must have been reconstructed.

1. Organization Principle of Long-term
Memory – continued
Process of grouping individual pieces of
information into larger units (e.g., categories)
on the basis of a specific relationship
between the pieces

2. The Encoding-Specificity Principle of
Long-term Memory - continued
Related pieces of information help recall
memory
Links help improve activation of the “nodes”
Any marketing communication that places its
spokesperson in both its advertising and on
its package can recall

3. The Association Principle of Long-term
Memory
At the center of a blank sheet of paper, write
the name Cornell PDP. Nearby, write your
first association to the product and draw a
line between the two. Then write your next
association, linking the second and third, and
so forth, until your paper is full. See how far
a field the associations go.

Exercise: Association Principle
Recently, when it was discovered that a large supplier of
hamburger meat to various restaurants around the
United States had shipped tons of contaminated beef,
consumers everywhere were afraid to eat hamburger.
The timing was especially bad for restaurants and
supermarkets because the scare took place during the
summer – the season when Americans are most likely to
be grilling and ordering hamburgers frequently. If you
were the owner or franchiser of a restaurant whose most
popular food items included various types of
hamburgers, what steps might you have taken to combat
marketplace rumors about the meat your served?
Consumer Attitudes and Behaviors (2008) (c) Stowe Shoemaker, Ph.D.
111
Exercise
Contrary to popular opinion, refuting a rumor
is not the best way to restore a company’s
image. This is because refuting the rumor
keeps the negative linkages in the
consumer’s associative network active. A
better solution is to create new, positive
associative links to the brand that can
interfere with the negative links

Implicit Memory
Automatic or an unconscious form of memory
In daily life, people rely on implicit memory
everyday in the form of procedural memory
(memory of how to do things – scripts)
Leads to illusion of truth
The illusion-of-truth effect states that a person is
more likely to believe a familiar statement than an
unfamiliar one

Classical Conditioning
Classical conditioning involves forming an
association between two objects.
The first object is an unconditioned stimulus. The
unconditioned stimulus leads to an automatic
unconditioned response (e.g. food leading to
salivation).
The second object is a conditioned stimulus.
Consumer Attitudes and Behaviors (2008) (c) Stowe Shoemaker, Ph.D.
116
Classical Conditioning
Once this pairing is learned, the conditioned
stimulus will lead to a conditional response
that is identical to the unconditioned
response

Effect: Negative event

BEHAVIOR
Learning Process: Consumer
Learns not to perform
responses leading to
punishment.

Effect: Removal of positive event
weakens responses preceding
occurrence.
Learning Process: Consumer
learns that responses no longer
produce positive outcome.

Negative Reinforcement
Effect: Removal of negative event
strengthens responses that allow
avoidance of negative
outcome.
Learning Process: Consumer
Learns to perform responses that
Allow him or her to avoid negative
outcome

How might marketers for a chain of resorts
like Club Med use partial reinforcement to get
vacationers to stay at their resorts?
How are frequent guest programs related to
this topic?
