Research in psychology has shown that even routinely experienced everyday objects such as brands can trigger cognitively engaging, emotional, and socially meaningful experiences. In this paper, we review three key areas where current advances reside: brands as passive objects with utilitarian and symbolic meanings, brands as relationship partners and regulators of personal relationships, and brands as creators of social identity with social group “linking value.” Research in these senses is grounded in a number of fundamental areas of cognitive, emotional, motivational, personality, interpersonal, and group psychology. Emerging areas for research are addressed as well.

Abstract
Research in psychology has shown that even routinely experienced everyday objects such as brands can trigger cognitively engaging, emotional, and socially meaningful experiences. In this paper, we review three key areas where current advances reside: brands as passive objects with utilitarian and symbolic meanings, brands as relationship partners and regulators of personal relationships, and brands as creators of social identity with social group “linking value.” Research in these senses is grounded in a number of fundamental areas of cognitive, emotional, motivational, personality, interpersonal, and group psychology. Emerging areas for research are addressed as well.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
