Özet

Bu çalışma, farklı kültürlerde lüks markalara yönelik motivasyonel faktörler üzerine yapılmıştır. Özellikle, marka tutumu ve marka sadakati arasındaki ilişki incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, beklenen kaygıdan kaçınma ve beklenen mutluluk gibi faktörlerin rolleri de araştırılmıştır. Veri toplama yöntemi olarak tüketici anketi kullanılmıştır. Güvenilirlik ve yakınsak geçerlilik için, hipotez testinden önce ölçüm ölçekleri doğrulanmıştır. Değişkenler arasındaki etkiyi araştırmak için Smart-PLS ile yapısal yol analizi kullanılmıştır. Yapısal analizde, marka tutumu ve mutluluğun marka sadakati üzerinde anlamlı pozitif etkileri olduğu bulunmuştur. Beklenen kaygıdan kaçınmanın ise sadakat üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisi olmadığı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, marka tutumu ile kaygıdan kaçınma ve marka tutumu ile mutluluk arasında anlamlı ilişkiler bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak, lüks markalara yönelik olumlu marka tutumunun kritik bir faktör olduğu vurgulanmaktadır. Bulgular, olumlu marka tutumunun lüks markalar için kritik bir itici güç olmaya devam ettiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bununla birlikte, marka sadakatinin arka planındaki etkenler farklı kültürlerde değişiklik göstermektedir. Psikolojik motivasyonlar kültürel etkilere bağlıdır. Örneğin, Türkiye'de keyif alma duygusunun marka sadakati üzerinde önemsiz bir etkisi varken, Suudi Arabistan'da marka sadakati üzerinde olumlu ve anlamlı bir etkisi vardır. Bu sonuçlar geçmiş literatürde yaygın olarak bulunsa da, bu araştırma teorik olarak farklı kültürlerin bakış açısıyla literatüre katkıda bulunmuştur.
