Compensatory Decision rule |
to average out some very goodfeatures with some less attractive features of a product in determining overall brand preference the brand that rates highest on the sum ofthe consumer’s judgments of the relevant evaluative criteria will be chosen. |
|
Conjunctive decision rule |
establishes minimum required performance standards foreach evaluative criterion and selects the first or all brands that meet or exceed these minimumstandards -"I'll buy the first brands that are acceptable on the attributes I think are important" |
|
Disjunctive decision rule |
establishes a minimum level of performance for each importantattribute (often a fairly high level). All brands that meet or exceed the performancelevel for any key attribute are considered acceptable. Using this rule, you would say, “I’llconsider all (or buy the fi rst) brands that perform really well on any attribute I considerimportant.” |
|
Elimination-by-Aspects Decision rule |
requires the consumer to rank the evaluativecriteria in terms of their importance and to establish a cutoff point for each criterion. Allbrands are first considered on the most important criterion. Those that do not meet or exceedthe cutoff point are dropped from consideration. If more than one brand remains in the setafter this fi rst elimination phase, the process is repeated on those brands for the second mostimportant criterion. This continues until only one brand remains. Thus, the consumer’slogic is, “I want to buy the brand that has a high level of an important attribute that otherbrands do not have.” |
|
Lexicographic Decision Rule |
requires the consumer to rank the criteria in order ofimportance. The consumer then selects the brand that performs best on the most importantattribute. If two or more brands tie on this attribute, they are evaluated on the second mostimportant attribute. This continues through the attributes until one brand outperforms theothers. The consumer’s thinking is something like this: “I want to get the brand that doesbest on the attribute of most importance to me. If there is a tie, I’ll break it by choosing theone that does best on my second most important criterion.” |
