ABSTRACT

One of the most critical marketing topics which have been widely discussed is brand equity. However, the moderating effects of relevant variables on brand equity are still inconclusive. This study focused on the potential moderating effects of consumer variables on the influences of brand equity on behavioral intention. Using a survey approach, the result of 353 cosmetics consumers showed that the level of relational moderators, including loyalty program participation, relationship age, product knowledge, and previous shopping experience would accelerate the influences of brand equity on behavior intention, brand preference, and word of mouth. While the level of psychological moderators including product involvement, brand commitment, brand love, switching cost and customer expectation would amplify the influence of brand equity to the same consequential variables. These results may provide an essential reference for both academicians and professionals to conduct further empirical validation or develop appropriate marketing programs to promote brand equity.
