Customers expect the buying process to consider their preferences for how, where, and when they want to purchase luxury goods, though the demand for such products is rising globally. Given the dynamic nature of luxury markets and consumer purchasing behavior, understanding why buyers want to buy luxury products through a digital channel is critical. What characteristics make them so appealing to customers? Current research investigates customer’s motives, benefits, and experiences they anticipate and perceive from the Digital Luxury Experience (DLX). With respondents from five countries, the study investigated DLX and identified three comparable luxury customer segments who buy luxury products and services digitally: traditionalists, chancers, and digi-lux. The qualitative exploration highlights the differences in the customer journeys of the segments, as well as the implications for theory and luxury customer experience management.Keywords: Digital luxury experienceluxury productstraditionalistchancerdigi-luxcross-cultural research Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.","PeriodicalId":47051,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Consumer Marketing","volume":"45 16","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135819706","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using an experimental approach, this study investigates the effect of embarrassment on choice of used and new products. We demonstrate that due to the embarrassment associated with buying used products, Chinese consumers are more likely than their US counterparts to choose new products over used ones. Furthermore, we find that this difference can be attenuated by reframing used products positively as antiques. Our findings enrich the theoretical understanding of consumer behavior across cultures, offer important managerial implications, and provide novel insights into future research directions.Keywords: Cultureproduct conditionsecondhandembarrassmentframing AcknowledgmentThe authors wish to thank Mengmeng Liu for her assistance and constructive feedback.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis research was supported by research grants from National Natural Science Foundation of China (No. 72102099) awarded to Shaobo (Kevin) Li.","PeriodicalId":47051,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Consumer Marketing","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135994239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, our understanding of their sociocultural contexts across countries is limited. This study uses survey data from 95,576 children from 35 societies and proposes a three-faceted cultural framework that covers the cultural dimensions of collectivism, power equivalence, and aggressiveness with respect to gender and contextual interactions. The study challenges the idea of a general transfer of parents’ values to children during the socialization process. The proposed framework has social and business relevance for diverse areas such as improving school experiences, speech-language intervention programs, and marketing to children.Keywords: Adolescentschildhoodchildrenculturepreadolescencesocializationvalues Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.Data availability statementThe data used in this publication comes from the third wave of Children’s Worlds project: An international survey of children’s lives and well-being (www.isciweb.org). The views expressed here are those of the author, they are not necessarily those of ISCWeB.Notes1 In the context of training young children, Findlay (Citation1906, p. 72) introduced the terms in- and outworld with respect to what children remember versus what they see. I suggest to use the term insphere for interactions with immediate family at home in analogy to inorganic chemistry. An inner sphere (or bonded) electron transfer is a chemical reaction that occurs between complexes via a bridging ligand. At least one of the complexes needs to allow the bridge to form. An outer sphere electron transfer occurs between complexes that remain separate and intact before, during, and after the transfer event (Douthwaite Citation2011). In geometry, the insphere (or inscribed sphere) of a solid is a sphere that is tangent to all faces of the solid, whereas the circumsphere (or circumscribed sphere) touches all the outer vertices of a solid.","PeriodicalId":47051,"journal":{"name":"Journal of International Consumer Marketing","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136113283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
