This thesis sets out to evaluate the role of consumer spaces in twentieth-century daily life. It is not concerned with the act of consumption but rather with the ways in which the social, cultural and educative role of the retail spaces is used as a marketing tool. The links that have been established between civic and commercial space over the last three hundred years are charted in order to locate the reasoning behind the growing tendency to design shopping malls as social and cultural spaces in the twentieth century. Three principal benefits to developers of the retails spaces from the promotion of consumer spaces as public spaces are identified in the thesis. First, links between the public and commercial developed to encourage potential customers into a particular retail space as opposed to its competition. Second, consumer spaces are developed as social and leisure spaces to encourage consumer loyalty. That is, they are developed as a means of encouraging repeat visits. Third, they are developed as a tactic to keep potential shoppers in the retail space for a longer duration. The logic behind this strategy being the more time spent in a consumer space the more goods purchased. The origins of this merchandising practice are traced back to the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries well before the advent of the department store form. The thesis located a number of strategies developed in the seventeenth century by tradesmen and merchants to sell their wares. At this time, it is evident that the consumer space was opened up to the public who were encouraged to enter without the obligation to purchase. Further, it is evident that, by the eighteenth century, shopkeepers and manufacturers' workshops included showrooms where potential customers could sit and take tea. Public spaces were also designed within the retail space so that potential customers could see and be seen. British shopkeepers often linked the retail space with the social practice of promenading by strategically situating their premises in an already established thoroughfare or site used for promenading. By the late eighteenth century, consumer spaces housed entertainment facilities such as art galleries, exhibitions and lounging rooms. After tracing the development of this merchandising strategy to the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the links that can be made between twentieth-century consumer spaces is examined. In addition, the early developments of shopping centres in the 1940s and 1950s are surveyed and their developmental logic and merchandising strategies are compared with more recent forms of shopping malls developed from the 1970s and 1980s.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
To significantly reduce the volumes of food currently wasted in industrialized countries,
tackling food waste on the household level is paramount. While awareness
campaigns and economic incentives are important measures, it is crucial to look beyond
individual decision making and scrutinize how contextual factors frame consumer
lifestyles in ways that intensify the issue of food going to waste. This paper
addresses the role of material contexts-in particular, infrastructures and Technologies-
in the shaping of food shopping and storing practices and thus consumer food
waste. It presents an in-depth, qualitative study with 24 Austrian households, conducted
from November 2016 to February 2017. Data were collected through food
waste diaries, semi-structured interviews and a total of 16 focus group discussions.
In line with other studies, we find that food waste is a largely unintended outcome of
entangled daily routines revolving around food, such as meal planning, grocery shopping
and food storing. The characteristics of food retail infrastructures-in terms of
accessibility, density and type-shape these routines and thus potentially influence
excess food purchases. Food storing practices as well depend on the characteristics
of domestic infrastructures and co-evolve with technologies used for storing food.
Unraveling the interconnectivity between material contexts and household food
practices can inform policy, product design and food retail development and thus has
implications for reducing consumer food waste.

The aim of this study is to investigate the interrelationships between place and taste through a multi-sited ethnography of music consumption. Place and taste are important theoretical constructs that have been studied extensively across the humanities and social sciences. Yet, there is a scarcity of research that attempts to bring together these constructs in the fields of marketing and consumer research and beyond. In particular, prior consumer culture theory (CCT) research has not taken into account the spatial processes through which consumers enact, perform and further develop their tastes in the market place. More significantly, little empirical research illustrates how different consumption spaces tend to orchestrate and shape consumers’ tastes. As such, this study focuses on the context of music consumption and aims to explore spatial taste formation processes via consumers’ aesthetic experiences in popular (festival) and classical (concert hall) music places within the fields of indie and classical music consumption respectively. The emergent findings are structured upon four chapters (papers) and develop specific research objectives which revolve around the overarching aim of the study, namely the exploration of the interrelationships between place and taste. This study brings together both structural and experiential dimensions of taste and highlights the ontological significance of phenomenological understandings of space and place for marketing and consumer research.

Consumption forms and is formed by the city. How, when and where commodities are transacted is essential in this urban drama of mutual relationships. This thesis explores how consumption and everyday life in cities are interrelated. The specific objective is to analyse how commodity transaction situations are configured and constrained in time and space, and, how consumer service spaces are formed in and are part of city formation. Transactions are conceptualised as economically and socially situated material projects constituted by consumers, commodities and producers. Commodities and values are transferred and created through transaction spaces. The theoretical perspective is framed around consumption and production of spaces, and particularly informed by Hägerstrand’s time-geographical thinking and Lefebvre’s work on urban space. Methodologically different examples of consumption projects and spaces are used to discuss configurations and formations for commodity transactions. The thesis stresses material and time-spatial constraints for commodity transaction and it discusses the blurring of boundaries between what conventionally has been separate social and economic activities and places. Changing transaction configurations and the formation of consumer service spaces in the city are explored through analysis of different consumption places and commodities such as books, coffee and clothes and property development projects in Stockholm city centre. Transaction configurations display geographical and historical continuities and changes as well as time-spatial flexibility and spatial fixity. Transactions spaces are continuously formed and reformed through processes embedded in the global cultural economy, urban development and politics, as well as through people’s everyday life. Producers’ strategic production and consumers’ tactical appropriation of transactions spaces are accentuated as crucial in the spatial practice of transactions, places and city formation.

Zhao, Jing. "Mobilizing the brand experience: The adoption and use of mobile media in building consumer relationships in China". Thesis, Queensland University of Technology, 2011. https://eprints.qut.edu.au/48174/1/Jing_Zhao_Thesis.pdf.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
This research examines why and how brand owners in China adopt and use mobile media in marketing campaigns to deliver co-creation brand experiences and build consumer relationships. China represents an interesting case to study as it has leapfrogged into the age of consumer society and mobile media adoption. As the largest mobile market globally, it has experienced the intensity of mobile technology diffusion; and with it the rise of mobile consumer culture and participatory culture. Further, the rising individualism and the socio-cultural heritage in collectivism serve as a structuring tension in how mobile media is leveraged in marketing to cater to consumers' desires for individuality and social interaction.
First, through expert interviews guided by the technology-organization-environment (TOE) framework (Tornatzky & Fleischer, 1990) as well as integrating innovation diffusion theory (E. Rogers, 2003), this research attempts to fill the gap of theoretical application in mobile marketing adoption at the firm level in China, and unravel the adoption factors of mobile marketing by brand owners in China. In total, 27 semi-structured interviews were conducted with key industry informants from mobile agencies, traditional agencies, venture capital firms, mobile content and service providers, mobile portals, and marketing management at brand owners.
Second, based on case studies in China, this research investigates the use of mobile marketing to facilitate innovative co-creation of brand experience to cater to both individualistic as well as collective tendencies and desires amongst Chinese consumers. Through multiple case studies of the campaigns conducted by Nokia, Clean & Clear, and The North Face, and informed by in-depth interviews and document analysis, this research analyses the role of mobile media in marketing campaigns along three dimensions: the role of mobile media in content generation and consumption, the centrality of mobile media as text, tools or platforms; and the interactive environment. Specifically, the cases are organized along the spectrum from user-generated content to corporate-generated content, mobile media's role from being supplementary to it being central, and from a virtual environment to a hybrid environment. Overall, these cases demonstrate how brand owners adapt mobile media as text, tools, platforms, and environments to deliver co-creation brand experiences exploiting both individualistic as well as collective tendencies and desires amongst Chinese consumers.
This research contributes to the literature on firm adoption of mobile marketing, and the role of the mobile media in facilitating co-creation experiences for Chinese consumers. It develops a model of the technological, organizational and environmental factors influencing mobile marketing adoption by firms, and provides a model explaining the role of mobile media in facilitating brand experience co-creation. The findings also demonstrate that mobile media can be leveraged to facilitate co-creation brand experience to generate added value; and meanwhile cater to both the rising individualism and the deep-seated collectivism of Chinese consumers.
Empirically, it assists industry practitioners in understanding the adoption of mobile marketing in China, especially those on the supply side in order to improve their offerings and propositions. It also assists brand owners and agencies in designing their mobile marketing strategies to build consumer relationships in China.

Cette dissertation a pour but de comprendre l’appropriation par les consommateurs d’objets ou lieux qu’ils partagent. En nous basant sur les théories de l’appropriation, de la consommation par l’accès et du design, nous questionnons la définition, l’émergence et la valeur perçue de l’appropriation en accès. Nous explorons les contextes de l’autopartage et du coworking au travers de quatre articles. Nos résultats mettent l’emphase sur le rôle des objets matériels dans la mise en pratique de l’appropriation par les consommateurs. Nous définissons l’appropriation du consommateur dans le cadre de l’accès comme la création de significations (valeur de signe, valeur de lien, bien-être dans l’usage) grâce à un ensemble routiniers de pratiques entre les consommateurs et les éléments matériels de l’activité de consommation par l’accèsThis dissertation aims to understand consumer appropriation of objects and places shared with others. We draw from theories of appropriation, access-based consumption and design to question the definition, the value and the emergence of consumer appropriation in access. We explore the contexts of car sharing and coworking spaces through four research articles. Our findings highlight the role of material objects in the enactment of consumer appropriation practices. We define consumer appropriation as the creation of meanings (sign value, linking value, wellbeing in use) enacted through a routinized set of practices between the consumer and the material elements of the access-based activity

Murray, John. "The specification of store environments : the role of store design-architecture in the consumer perception of retail brands". Thesis, University of Stirling, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/1893/20860.
Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
The overall focus of this doctoral thesis is the examination of the role of store design-architecture in consumer perceptions of retail brand loyalty. More specifically, it examines how consumers’ perceptions at the store design-architecture level promote brand loyalty and attachment at the overall retail-level. This research, therefore, aims to address the underdeveloped extant knowledge of the role of the store design-architecture in retail branding. This thesis addresses two research questions: 1) is it possible to improve on the specification or measurement of the store environment beyond the novelty, complexity collative constructs proposed in traditional studies of the store environment?; and 2) what effect, if any, do these improved store environment constructs (from answering research question number one) have in explaining the role of store design-architecture in consumer perceptions of retail brand loyalty? In its examination of the role of store-level design-architecture in overall retail-level branding, the theoretical significance of this thesis is based on two activities. First, this thesis proposes a conceptual framework that draws on multiple, diverse literatures from design-architecture, psychology and marketing. The critical review of pertinent literatures from these three sources then enables the second activity: the generation of novel empirical insights based on surveys of consumer perceptions of store-level design-architecture. A research instrument is developed that compares higher and lower levels of design in two stores of Penneys, a discount fashion retailer. The responses of 145 consumers are examined in an Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). A separate dataset of 403 consumer responses are analysed using Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) and Structural Equations Modelling (SEM). Multiple-group invariance testing is also completed on this dataset. The primary theoretical contributions of this thesis to the extant literature are five-fold. First, the principal contribution of this thesis confirms that store aesthetic preference is positively associated with retail brand loyalty. Thus, the second research question is satisfactorily addressed; I explain that there is a mild association between store aesthetic preference and the emotionally valenced retail brand attachment construct in higher-level design contexts. Instead, a store aesthetic preference association is observed with the more behaviourally valenced retail brand loyalty construct in lower-level designs. Consequently, this principal contribution to the extant literature reveals the perceptive dynamic of how consumers processing of store-level design-architecture correspond with their perceptions of retail-level brand loyalty. A host of global-attribute, objective-subjective, and cognitive-emotional perceptive processing at the store and retail levels are observed in the proposed theoretical framework. Second, to confirm the role of store design-architecture in retail brand loyalty, I develop: a new scale for retail brand product; modify scales for store prototype, store novelty, store aesthetic preference, store complexity and retail brand price; and introduce scales for brand attachment and brand loyalty from non-retail contexts into a retail context for the first time. This research, therefore, addresses research question number one by making a notable conceptual and measurement contribution to the specification of the store environment. Third, as a progression from the previous contribution, I use these improved store environments constructs to better specify the store environment, and examine the associations between store prototype, store novelty and store aesthetic preference. I demonstrate that theory such as the preference-for-prototypes literature helps to improve the extant understanding of the associations between store prototype, store novelty and store aesthetic preference. The confirmation of the existence of these associations essentially means that the proposed model is robust, credible and able to account for consumers objective-subjective, global-attribute discriminations of the store-level aesthetic. Fourth, in an effort to explain the relative visual and non-visual contributions to retail brand attachment and retail brand loyalty, I examine associations concerning retail brand product and retail brand price. Retail brand product is confirmed to have stronger associations with retail brand attachment than store aesthetic preference or store prototypicality. Thus, this research extends the extant knowledge of the relative contributions of visual and non-visual constructs to understanding retail brand loyalty. Fifth, this research contributes to the extant understanding of how non-invariance analysis can be employed in Structural Equations Modelling (SEM) to confirm differences between groups. This research examines differences in parameter values to confirm differences in perception of the higher and lower levels of store design-architecture. This type of use of non-invariance analysis is not frequently employed in SEM and I propose that this research instrument can be generalised to other retail contexts also. Finally, this thesis concludes by presenting the limitations of this research. It makes suggestions on potential future research that could be completed, and raises some pertinent implications for practitioners arising from this research.

The diploma thesis deals with the protection of a consumer in consumer contracts with the fact that it is based on Czech law as well as on European Union legislation, because there are directions, which had to be implemented into the legal order of the Czech Republic. First of all I deal with basic characteristic of the legal regulation of consumer protection and its sources. The issue of consumer contracts is divided into three parts. The first one is just about contracts and rules, which determine all consumer contracts. The second part describes specific types of consumer contracts and finally I outlined perspective of a next development of this problem. I also try to focus on European aspect of regulation of consumer contracts and I found out, that Czech lawmaker has got a massive lack of knowledge in the implementation.

Thesis (M.Eng.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Engineering Systems Division, 2000.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 58-64).
Despite a growing body of information about the importance of good logistics and supply chain management, there remains a dearth of research regarding consumer-to-business reverse logistics (the collection of processes required to move individual goods from individual end-consumers to the appropriate retailer, manufacturer, or third party). Indeed, there is not a comprehensive framework to assist enterprises in understanding, evaluating, creating, implementing, or changing a consumer-to-business reverse logistics policy of program. Given the growth of e-commerce and the Internet channel, where goods are often delivered to end-consumers in quantities of one and may likely be returned in quantities of one, this absence of a framework is peculiar. This thesis seeks to fill that gap by utilizing analysis of existing literature, as well as extrapolation of recent trends and developments in reverse logistics service offerings, technology, and last mile solutions. The results are that there is enough available information on the processes and issues surrounding consumer-to-business reverse logistics that a flexible and pragmatic framework can be proposed for use in the United States. This is accomplished by synthesizing results with original analysis, thought, and context. Though the framework cannot be considered comprehensive, it does provide an initial tool for critique and improvement.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
As e-commerce becomes an increasingly large industry, questions remain about how the isolated effects of design elements on websites influence consumer perceptions and purchasing behavior. This study used a quantitative approach to measuring the effect of a ubiquitous element of design, white space, on the perception of the monetary value of individual items. White space is a key component of design and website usability, yet it has been shown to be related to the perception of luxury. Little is known about the direct relationship between manipulation of white space and the outcomes on consumer perceptions of value in an e-commerce context. This study found no significant difference between two levels of total white space area (large vs. small) measured by participants' perceived cost of items (chairs). In contrast, while holding total white space constant, the effect of white space distance between images was significant for males but not for females. Additionally, no significant relationship between gender and frequency of online shopping behavior was found, χ2(1) = 3.19, p = .07, &phis; = .17. Gender and amount of time spent per month online were significantly related, χ 2(1) = 6.21, p = .013, &phis; = .24.

Reflecting the growing interest from both consumers and policymakers, and building on recent developments
in Willingness to Pay (WTP) methodologies, we evaluate consumer preferences for an archetypal
traditional food product. Specifically we draw on stated preference data from a discrete choice
experiment, considering the traditional Hungarian mangalitza salami. A WTP space specification of the
generalized multinomial logit model is employed, which accounts for not only heterogeneity in preferences
but also differences in the scale of the idiosyncratic error term. Results indicate that traditional food
products can command a substantial premium, albeit contingent on effective quality certification,
authentic product composition and effective choice of retail outlet. Promising consumer segments and
policy implications are identified. (authors' abstract)

Education about and for the home has been part of the Swedish education system for over one hundred years, and Home and Consumer Studies (HCS) has been compulsory for all pupils since the common nine-year school system was introduced in 1962. For all this time food has been a central theme, however we know very little of what food means in this context. The aim of this thesis was to seek to understand the construction of food in HCS. This thesis consists of four papers that explore food in HCS from the perspective of teachers and pupils, the role of the classroom and how food in HCS is part of a larger cultural context. Observations and focus group interviews were used to collect data. The material consists of field notes from 13 days in three HCS classrooms and transcripts of focus group interviews with 25 HCS-teachers and 20 pupils. The analytical methods used were based on social constructionist assumptions which were supplemented by theories on culture, space and spatiality. Results show that teachers constructed both pupils’ homes and society in general as deficient in relation to health. Their role, as public health commissioners, was to educate pupils about food on issues such as health and sustainability. Pupils relied on their personal experiences from home to make sense of food in HCS. To them, home was the authentic place for food where everyday life took place. Food in HCS on the other hand was de-authenticised and sometimes hard to make sense of. This meant that there was a limited shared understanding between pupils and teachers. A spatial analysis of the HCS classroom as a learning space for food showed that past ideologies and traditional power geometries were built into the physical layout and social relationships constructing the room. Food in HCS was found to reflect cultural values of the surrounding society at the same time as a specific HCS cuisine emerged. Food in HCS was thus constructed as contested in interaction between food, pupils, teachers and classroom as well as in relation to a wider context.

A presente tese visa problematizar o lugar do shopping center no processo de produção do espaço, identificando, através de uma análise histórica, as metamorfoses e os novos sentidos adquiridos por essa forma espacial. Antes de se tornar um espaço comercial, o shopping é um relevante investimento imobiliário atrelado ao capital financeiro. Porém, mais que um espaço de consumo torna-se consumo do espaço preso ao tempo da cotidianidade, o que permite a tal forma comercial tornar-se um elemento concreto do processo de subjetivação engendrado pelo espaço produzido pela forma mercadoria, que, por sua vez, reproduz e amplia a mercantilização do urbano, permitindo a análise das relações sociais reificantes características de um momento histórico aonde os valores do consumo ganham centralidade na reprodução da sociedade urbana. A subjetivação realizada pela mercadoria espaço é iluminada com o conceito teórico e prático de fetichismo do espaço, capaz de determinar modos de uso do espaço engendrados pelo mercado, revelando comportamentos, modos de agir e de pensar produzidos com o intuito exclusivo de permitir a aceleração e reprodução do capital, assim como de reforçar os conteúdos capitalistas da cotidianidade imposta à sociedade urbana em constituição.
This thesis aims to discuss the place of the shopping mall in the space production process, identifying, through a historical analysis, the metamorphosis and the new meanings acquired by this spatial form. Before becoming a commercial space, the mall is a major real estate investment linked to financial capital. However, more than a consumption space it becomes a consumption of space stuck to the quotidian time, which allows such commercial form to become a concrete element of subjectivity process engendered by the space produced by the commodity form, which in turn reproduces and expands the commodification of the urban, allowing the analysis of reifying social relations characteristic of a historical moment where the consumption values gain centrality in the reproduction of urban society. The subjectivity held by the space commodity is illuminated with the theoretical and practical concept of fetishism of space, able to determine ways to use the space engendered by the market, revealing behaviors, ways of acting and thinking produced with the sole purpose of enabling the acceleration and reproduction of capital as well as to enhance the quotidian capitalist content imposed on the urban society in constitution.

A Quantum Key Distribution system has been demonstrated with a focus on applicability of the technology to a consumer use model. The optical devices were split into a large, expensive "Quantum ATM" (the Bob terminal) and a small, cheap handheld section (the Alice device). Work was initially done to integrate the devices into a realistic demonstration system which was exhibited at several international conferences. Following this success, the devices constituent parts were isolated and improved upon. Work on the Alice device focused upon proposing a new scheme for light collimation and then investigating a method to enact this. In the Bob device the progress was directed towards a more effective single photon detection system utilizing active quenching. An asymptotic secure key rate of 20kb/s was obtained at a bit error rate (BER) of 4% corresponding to a daylight operation scenario. A docking scheme was enacted to simplify the alignment of the optical channel which was shown to be repeatable over at least 50 cycles. The system was also shown to be stable over an extended period of time.

Previous research exploring the impact of the retail environment has presented consumers as passive participants who can be managed in the space. Much of this research has focused on measuring consumers’ responses and behaviour using experimental and survey-based approaches, detached from the complexity and diversity of consumers’ lived experiences. However more recent research in advertising, services and leisure, and inter-disciplinary studies on consumption has highlighted the consumers’ role as active meaning makers across a variety of activities and contexts. This thesis focuses on young consumers’ retail brand experiences and in particular their experiences of retail space. Drawing on diverse research from marketing and consumer behaviour, environmental psychology, geography and anthropology, this study offers a more contexutalised understanding of consumers’ interactions with retail space. Research focused on the youth fashion market and three mixed fashion retail chains located in Glasgow. Adopting an interpretative approach, multiple methods of data collection were used, including in-depth interviews, mini group discussions and a series of accompanied shops. The study indicates that, far from passive participants, young fashion consumers are active co-constructors of space who derive their own meaning from these space encounters. The research extends the concept of literacy into a retail context to illustrate that consumers are capable of ‘reading between the aisles’. Informants not only had a sophisticated knowledge and understanding of retail design issues, but were also able to interpret and construct their own meaning from the physical, sensory and social space. Building on Relph’s (1976) model of insiders and outsiders the study further proposes that young fashion consumers adopt a number of roles in their interpretation of the retail space. The thesis concludes by exploring the implications of these findings for retailers and suggests possible avenues for future research.

Therefore, the analysis explore two centralities in the city of Novo Hamburgo (RS), where it is possible to capture over the landscape, the practices and the daily-life on the places, the manifestation of distinction related to the use and consume on and of the place. As the consumption of objects is a distinguishing attribute, the space of its action is also used as a way of segmentation of lifestyle. Through the statements of the merchants, passers-by and consumers of the studied centralities, the analysis sought to understand how the speeches about these spatiality are used as ways of identification and distinction between the different lifestyles.

Exemplary agriculture is a grassroots alternative food movement in Shanghai, China and the surrounding countryside. At the movement’s centre are a group of 13 independent and small-scale organic farmers. This thesis outlines the movement’s formation and functioning, and discusses participants’ motivations and objectives. It also identifies relationships between movement activists and intellectuals, rural residents, volunteers on the farms and customers in the city. Exemplary agriculture is different to other alternative food movements because it is heavily influenced by the continuing legacies of state socialism. Two legacies in particular affect how exemplary agriculturalists think and act. The first is exemplarity, a form of morality and social governance that achieves order through leadership by example and the emulation of role models. Exemplarity and the promotion of role models has been a pillar of Chinese Communist Party policy since the 1940s. The second is the differentiation of the urban and the rural. The household registration system, established by the CCP in the 1950s, paved the way for the formation of powerful discourses of
urban/rural difference. These discourses polarise the city and the countryside into discrete spaces and identities with clearly demarcated boundaries, privileging the urban. Exemplary agriculturalists worry about the health of Chinese society and want to provide alternatives. By growing organic produce in the countryside and selling to customers in the city, they want to relieve Chinese urbanites from anxiety caused by food safety concerns. At a deeper level, they want to influence urban attitudes toward rural China and improve relations between the two groups. Exemplary agriculturalists adopt principles derived from rural culture and call on others to emulate them. They encourage urban residents to apply these principles to their own lives, thereby facilitating alternative and better ways of city living. In short, they borrow from the rural to help the urban.

Mestrado em Gestão MBAA gestão de categorias desempenha um papel de importância crescente no retalho, e o espaço de linear, é uma variável determinante nos resultados das categorias. O espaço é o recurso mais escasso de um retalhista, e um importante instrumento de marketing nos produtos comercializados em auto-serviço. Os retalhistas podem aumentar as suas vendas, mas também diminuir os custos, através da forma como colocam os produtos no espaço. Um retalhista português iniciou um projecto de gestão de espaço de linear, com uma estratégia de distribuição simples e realista. O espaço foi distribuído na proporção directa das vendas, estratégia comum no sector. Através de uma experiência, com 4 categorias em 2 lojas, medimos a sua eficácia. Os resultados evidenciaram a importância do espaço no crescimento das vendas. Contudo, com esta estratégia os retalhistas apenas podem esperar fracos crescimentos nas vendas.
Category management plays an increasingly important role in retail management and the shelf space is a determinant variable in the results of the category. Shelf space is the retailer´s scarcest resource. For the fast moving consumer goods, in the self-service selling situations, shelves are an important marketing instrument. Retailers cannot only increase their profit but also decrease cost by proper management of shelf allocation and products display. Space management tools and strategies are thus badly needed. For that purpose, a Portuguese retailer started a project for a top down approach on shelf space management. They needed a simple and realistic model for space allocation. We used a common strategy in the sector to allocate shelf space to products: the direct proportion of their sales. Through a field experiment in 4 categories and 2 stores, where we customized shelf based on store specific movement, we measured the effectiveness of this space management technique. The results gave supporting evidence that space matters and plays and important part in increasing product sales. However, with this strategy for space allocation retailers should expect only modest gains in category sales.

Pełny tekst źródłaStreszczenie:
Consumers are constantly evaluating quantitative information, such as the prices of different products, the time spent on an activity, or the distance covered during one day. Substantial research in psychology has demonstrated that judgments of quantity in one dimension (e.g., numbers) influence subsequent judgments on another dimension (e.g., time). The present research contributes to a growing body of work by exploring how the shared representation of time, space, and numbers affects consumer perceptions and behaviors.
My first dissertation essay explores how the organization of time on a spatial plane affects temporal judgments, product evaluations, and intertemporal discounting (i.e., time-space interaction). It has been well documented that Western consumers typically arrange temporal sequences following a past-left, future-right spatial pattern. Merging insights gained from numerical cognition and time psychology, the author develops a framework to explain how displaying temporal sequences congruently with this spatial organization of time increases subjective estimations of time and biases consumers toward present rewards.
My second dissertation essay seeks to understand how and why expressing quantitative information in symbolic code (i.e., “6”) compared to verbal code (i.e., “six”) affects magnitude judgments and product evaluations (i.e., time-number interaction). Two rival accounts to explain the symbol-verbal effect are described and tested: (1) a systematic processing account based on Arabic symbols’ perceptual and cognitive features and (2) a fluency account based on the frequency of use and facilitation of processing Arabic symbols. This research has important managerial implications related to the effective communication of quantitative information.

Uma designação muito frequente para se referir à sociedade contemporânea é sociedade de consumo, o que implica considerar que através do consumo possam ser discutidas questões centrais quanto à natureza da atual realidade social. Esta dissertação trata da interconexão entre espaço urbano e consumo, procurando definir em que se constituiriam espaço para consumo e consumo do espaço. Partindo do princípio de que a publicidade atua como porta-voz da sociedade de consumo, foram utilizados anúncios publicitários para lançamento de empreendimentos imobiliários residenciais (edifícios de apartamentos) a fim de descobrir que características e qualidades são mais valorizadas em relação às localizações, já que estas se constituem em elemento intrínseco na compra da moradia-apartamento, e definir atributos significativos em relação a um espaço urbano considerado enquanto mercadoria. Constata-se que, para este segmento de mercado, a publicidade adota um caráter predominantemente descritivo e informativo. Devido a sua importância na organização, tanto político-administrativa quanto mental, da cidade, os bairros apresentam-se como elementos de destaque na estruturação dos anúncios publicitários, em cujo contexto a nominação dos bairros se distribui desigualmente, revelando hierarquias que não se devem, todavia, apenas a aspectos de ordem econômica (renda salarial dos moradores). O recorte empírico espacial deste estudo contempla a cidade de Porto Alegre-RS, durante o período de 1980 até 2005.A very common way of describing the contemporary society is by using the term consumer society, which means considering that through consumption we can discuss major questions about the current social context. This dissertation is about the interconnection between urban space and consumption, and it seeks for a definition of space for consumption and consumption of space. Initially having in mind that advertising acts as the mouthpiece of the consumer society, in this research newspaper advertisements to sell new apartments were used to discover which characteristics and qualities are in fact valuable concerning the location of residential buildings, hence it is an intrinsic element in the purchase of a new apartment, and those advertisements were also used to define significant attributes of an urban space considered as a commodity. This study found out that for this market segment advertising plays a role preponderantly descriptive and informative. Neighborhoods, including their names, are prominent key elements in organizing the newspapers advertisements here in question, even because neighborhoods are relevant in political as well mental organization concerning the city. Neighborhoods' names appeared in an unequal way in those advertisements and this point reveals some kind of hierarchy among these locations, hierarchy which not depends upon only economic issues however. Empirical area is based on Porto Alegre, Brazil, during the years of 1980 and 2005.

Children learn from a variety of sources. One of the most powerful pedagogical sites for kids is the consumer sphere. Marketers recognize this and have recently carved out a new consumer niche for those between childhood and adolescence, marking them as tweens. La Senza Corporation, which specializes in women's lingerie, responded to this trend by opening a tween store with a name heavily laden with meanings of sexuality: La Senza Girl. This study will apply a textual analysis to the tween retail space, in an effort to understand the informal pedagogy that takes place within this milieu. While La Senza Girl celebrates girlhood by creating a space that tween girls can call their own, it is important to take stock of the meanings of girlhood being celebrated. This study interrogates La Senza Girl's 'pedagogies' of femininity, sexuality and girlhood.

Este trabalho visa a analisar os novos espaços de consumo na área central de Anápolis, no Estado de Goiás a partir do comércio informal, uma vez que há uma interação entre os diversos espaços produzidos no meio urbano, contribuindo assim, para uma interpretação das práticas existentes na cidade. Nesta perspectiva, discutimos o uso e apropriação de algumas ruas no centro pelos camelôs e ambulantes, além do camelódromo e de um shopping popular que por sua vez comercializa produtos que são adquiridos pelas pessoas que circulam nesses espaços, levando-se em consideração o consumo que cria e recria uma realidade que vislumbra as formas e funções da e na cidade como o espetáculo da (re)produção do capital e como elementos articulados ao processo de (re)produção do espaço urbano em cidades de médio porte. Partimos da idéia de que o centro principal e tradicional redefine seus usos tomando como base as estratégias de localização das atividades ditas informais no seu interior, reafirmando a centralidade urbana expressa no contexto de relações preexistentes, visto que as singularidades das funções envolvem uma avaliação das novas formas de comercialização do setor terciário. Realizamos uma análise desenvolvida mediante o levantamento e revisão bibliográficos, pesquisa de campo e análise dos dados para a compreensão da dinâmica do centro da cidade de Anápolis a partir da atuação do comércio informal.

In this perspective, we discussed the use and appropriation of some streets in the center by the street-fakers and travelings besides the street-fakers place and a popular shoppings that for its time markets products that are acquired by the people that circulate in those spaces, being taken in consideration the consumption that creates and (re)creates a reality that shimmers the forms and functions of the and in the city as the show of the capital (re)production and as articulated elements to the process of (re)production of the urban space in medium load cities. We started of the idea that the main and traditional center redefine its uses, taking as base the location strategies of the said informal activities in this interior, reaffirming the centrality expressed in the context of the preexistents relationships, because the singularities of the functions involve an evaluation of the new commercialization ways of the tertiary sector. We accomplished an analysis developed by means of the rising and bibliographical revision, field research and data analysis for the understanding of Anápolis downtown dynamics starting from the informal trade performance.

Na cidade, produzem-se espaços de socialidade destinados a distintos públicos, com variáveis que vão desde a faixa-etária, gosto musical e níveis socioeconômicos, fundamentadas em relações de pertencimento e afinidades diversas que sedimentam o “estar-junto à toa”. O recorte temático da pesquisa se dá a partir do universo do idoso frequentador de bailes da terceira idade, na cidade de Cuiabá (Mato Grosso, Brasil), suas práticas de socialidade e seus processos de ressignificação da música, enquanto formas de consumo e produção de subjetividades. Analisa-se a música mais popular como um produto cultural que possibilita a produção de sentidos e interação entre indivíduos, quando inscrita em um universo social e simbólico específico, permeando mundos intersubjetivos circunscritos na cidade. Nove espaços de socialidade, classificados como bailões, foram identificados em bairros com localidades distintas entre si – em regiões centrais e periféricas, variando entre espaços públicos e privados – possibilitando o desenvolvimento de uma cartografia de um circuito especifico, daqueles que fazem dos bailes parte relevante de seus cotidianos.
In the city, socialization spaces are destined to different kinds of public, which vary according to age, appreciation for music and socioeconomic level, based on belonging relations and several affinities between people, which reinforce the “being together to spend time”. The thematic approach of the research is focused on the universe of old people who frequent elderly`s dancing parties in Cuiabá (Mato Grosso, Brazil), their social practices and their music re-signification process, as consumption forms and subjectivity production. The more popular music is analyzed as a cultural product which allows the meaning production and the interaction between individuals when it is inscribed in a specific social and symbolic universe, permeating intersubjective circumscribed worlds in the city. Nine socialization spaces, classified as “bailões”, were identified in distinct neighbors – downtown and suburbs, varying between public and private spaces – allowing a mapping of a specific route of those who have the dancing parties as a relevant part of their daily life.

Researchers must consider the role of context when examining the behavior and characteristics of an individual. An individual must alter development, characteristics, and behavior, to adequately meet the challenges presented within their ecology. The following dissertation presents three manuscripts that examine individual differences while considering the role ecological (spatial) and developmental (temporal) context plays on the individual. Each paper utilizes Life History Theory to examine and to integrate the study findings into a cohesive framework. Life history theory is an evolutionary-developmental theory that focuses on how allocation of bioenergetic and material resources to different developmental facets will have long-term implications for behavior, traits, and health. Each paper collectively highlights key contextual factors throughout the lifespan and seeks to understand how life history strategies emerge. Study I examined the role mother's behavior had on the development of the child unpredictability schema (i.e., worldview where children view their environment and others as unreliable). The study included 65 children and their mothers. Results revealed that child unpredictability schema was predicted by mother's mating and parental effort. A quadratic effect was also found, whereby child unpredictability schema became constant at lower levels of parental effort. Study II utilized retrospective reports of childhood parental effort from extended kin family, positive emotional environment, and traditional social values from a sample of 200 Mexican and Costa Rican college students. High levels of childcare assistance from patrilineal and matrilineal kin were associated with more positive family environment, and the association was partially mediated between kin care and slow life history. Positive associations were also found between matrilineal kin childcare and traditional Latin social values. Study III utilized a nationally-representative, all-female sample to test whether higher reproductive effort increases physical/mental deterioration in women. Results reveal that reproductive effort and illness were mediated by both antioxidant defenses and inflammation. The results of the three studies broadly support hypotheses generated from Life History Theory. Contextual factors during key developmental stages have an impact on how an individual will allocate time and bioenergetic resources - thus contributing to specific behavioral life history strategies.

Consumer generated product reviews is a tool growing in popularity among e-retailers. On account of its many benefits and as the internet is continuously taking over as a market place this may come as no surprise. However, deception has found its way in with the intention to further extend these benefits and as reviews keep growing as a go-to tool for the practitioners – so does the phenomenon of brand generated opinion spam. Since legal repercussions of opinion spamming is found in theory to be largely absent, the authors sought for other facets of a brand that could potentially be influenced by this phenomenon. Aiming straight for the heart of a brand, namely brand trust. Taking a foothold in theory on brand trust as a psychological variable, the present thesis aims to explore how revealed opinion spam activities can affect brand trust. Through a qualitative and embedded case study, this thesis thereby aims to explore how brand trust is affected by opinion spam activities unveiled within brands, and ultimately contribute with a deeper understanding of this affect. Data was collected through two focus groups consisting of 14 participants in total, and as found – being engaged in opinion spam activities is a risky business. Brand generated opinion spam is found to influence the antecedents of brand trust negatively. Further research is advised to examine the relationship between opinion spam and brand trust extending beyond an exploratory stage. As antecedents of brand trust can be derived from an array of different constructs, and since brand trust is not uniformly defined in literature - varying sets of findings can surface depending on how brand trust is conceptualized. Brand generated opinion spam itself and its supposed affects ought to be examined further as this contemporary phenomenon is certainly on the horizon for most retailers operating online. "Dare to be true: nothing can need a lie; A fault which needs it most, grows two thereby." – George Herbert - 1633Konsumentgenererade produktrecensioner är ett verktyg som växer i popularitet bland internetbaserade återförsäljare. På grund av dess många fördelar och eftersom internet kontinuerligt växer som marknadsplats är detta kanske ingen överraskning. Dock, har bedrägeri letat sig in i syfte att ytterligare utöka dessa fördelar allteftersom kundrecensioner fortsätter att växa som ett verktyg bland utövare, så kommer opinion spam – fenomenet att växa i takt. Då de juridiska påföljderna av opinion-spamming lyser med sin frånvaro i den vetenskapliga litteraturen, sökte författarna till denna avhandling efter andra aspekter av ett varumärke som potentiellt kan påverkas av detta fenomen. Med siktet inställt på hjärtat av ett varumärke, nämligen varumärkesförtroendet. Avhandlingen tar avstamp i teorier om varumärkesförtroende som en psykologisk variabel i syfte att undersöka hur ett avslöjade opinion spam-aktiviteter kan påverka just varumärkesförtroende. Genom en kvalitativ och en ”embedded” fallstudie syftar denna avhandling därmed till att undersöka hur varumärkesförtroende är påverkat av opinion-spammande aktiviteter som avslöjats inom varumärken, och bidra med en djupare förståelse av denna påverkan. Datan samlades in genom två fokusgrupper bestående av totalt 14 deltagare, och som påvisat är opinion-spamming en riskabel verksamhet. Varumärkesgenererad opinion-spamming har visat sig påverka förtroendet för varumärken negativt. Ytterligare forskning rekommenderas att undersöka förhållandet mellan opinion spam och varumärkesförtroende bortom ett förberedande stadium. Då förtroende för varumärken kan härledas från en rad olika konceptualiseringar, och eftersom varumärkesförtroende som en vetenskaplig term inte är enhetligt definierat i litteraturen – kan varierande uppsättningar av resultat genereras beroende på hur varumärkesförtroende som koncept är uppbyggt. Varumärkesproducerad opinion-spam i sig, och dess påverkan på förtroendet till varumärken borde undersökas ytterligare, detta eftersom det som ett kontemporärt fenomen ligger i riktlinjen för de flesta återförsäljare som är verksamma på internet.

Esta tese discute a migração internacional de brasileiros, descendentes de japoneses e seus cônjuges, do Brasil para o Japão. O enfoque principal é uma discussão sobre o movimento de inserção destes migrantes, conhecidos como dekasseguis, no espaço geográfico, não só pelo viés do trabalho, mas também pelo viés do consumo, uma das variáveis chaves do período atual em que vivemos. O processo de modernização resultado do desenvolvimento do capitalismo, e projeto da modernidade, atravessa os territórios ao longo do tempo, produzindo desigualdades sócio-espaciais. Os espaços e países mais densos de capital ou aptos a acolher esta densidade, acabam atraindo as populações dos lugares e dos países periféricos em crise. A emergência de um modo de vida moderno em consonância com estes espaços também é um fator importante a ser considerado nas explicações do movimento migratório. É por isso que esta tese procura demonstrar que o movimento dekassegui entendido como movimento da vida encontra grandes dificuldades de real integração no território do mundo presente.This thesis studies the Brazilian international migration of Japanese descendents and their spouses from Brazil to Japan. The main approach is the discussion about the movement of migrant introduction, known as \"dekassegui\", in the geographic space, not only by way of work, but by the way of consumption, one of variable keys of actual period that we live. The process of modernization, consequence of capitalism development, and modernity project, cross over territories along the time, producing inequality in social-spaces. The spaces and countries denser of capital or able to receive this density end up attracting these populations, from places and peripheral countries in crisis. The emergency of this modern way of life in consonance with these spaces is also an important agent to be considered in the explanation of migratory movement. This thesis searches to demonstrate that the \"dekassegui\" movement, known as a life movement, finds great difficulties of real integration inside the territory of present world.

The brazilian verticalisation is one of the main themes of research among scholars over the city and the urban. It has been observed the expansion of the verticalisation process followed by a movement of directing production to niche real estate market. They conform, according to the location of buildings in urban space and a set of attributes, which are attached to them and that meet different desires and interests of consumers, relating to a lifestyle and wellness socially valued. In this dissertation, we discuss the process of vertical integration in the city of Londrina - PR, in the period 2000 to 2010, from real estate sales for some segments of the housing market, namely, the multi-family residential units located in areas of expansion of verticalisation, previously restricted to more central areas and of the pericentre. The analysis of trends in production and consumption of urban space seem to us very important, in that (re) structuring of the dynamics of urban space. Taking these elements as a reference, we analyze how forms of housing have been modified over the study period in the city of Londrina, is comparing the old and new forms of urban living.

This research addressed the social othering and positioning of mental health consumers in Australian society. Using a critical lens, the study explored the accounts of nurses caring for mental health consumers in intensive care. Interpretations of the accounts of interactions between nurses and consumers in this context brought focus to the ways in which nurses exercise legitimated power and privilege. It is hoped that the research will prompt critical reflection on the inherent structural power inequities in healthcare facilities and that political awareness of oppression and disenfranchisement of mental health consumers can be fostered among nurses as a professional group.

Este trabalho versa sobre as lógicas econômicas e as práticas espaciais de diversão noturna em Londrina - PR, entendidas como parte relevante da produção do seu espaço urbano, levando em consideração que a faceta da noite urbana ainda é pouco investigada. O objeto de pesquisa, que tem as juventudes e culturas juvenis como bojo, foram construídos no processo de observação sistemática da noite londrinense, durante o qual estabelecemos as “baladas” como foco da investigação. Elas foram escolhidas por terem uma lógica de escolhas locacionais estratégica na cidade, que parece reforçar a tendência a fragmentação socioespacial. São quatro grandes “baladas” em Londrina, todas estudadas a partir da observação participante, com frequentação sistemática às casas noturnas, entrevistas com proprietários, trabalhadores da noite e com os jovens frequentadores. Também realizamos um questionário para construirmos um perfil socioeconômico e cultural e desenharmos o circuito das práticas espaciais de diversão noturna dos consumidores deste formato de diversão. Nas “baladas”, as estratégias empresariais, assim como as práticas espaciais dos consumidores, trazem em seu bojo representações de distinção social, alimentadas por uma cultura de consumo, mas que ganham materialização em lógicas e práticas que acabam revelando as peculiaridades da escala de mercado das cidades médias, em que parece haver maior contato entre as distintas classes sociais, em relação ao mesmo universo em contextos metropolitanos.
This work aims to illustrate the economic logics and the spatial practices of the nightlife entertainment in Londrina (Paraná - Brazil), which is understood to be a relevant aspect of the urban space production. This research give attention to the nighttime, considering this aspect has been poorly investigated in Urban Geography. The research object, which has as youth and youth cultures as the bulge, was built in the process of systematic observation of the Londrina’s nightclubs as the main research object for data collection. These premises were selected because of a spacial strategy by the nightclub’s owners that seem to reforce socio-spatial fragmentation. The four largest nightclubs in Londrina were studied by systematic observation approach and through interviewing owners, night workers and customers. Moreover, a survey was conducted in these establishments to collect information about socioeconomic and cultural profiles that support a circuit map of customer spatial practices on this format of entertainment. It is being observed that at nightlife business strategies, as such as consumer’s spatial practices, bring at its core a culture of consumerism that’s produces social distinction. This behaviour reviews certain peculiarities in the middle sized cities, that show a scale of market that seems to have more social classes sharing the same urban space compared to the same universe at metropolitan context.

Resumo: Este trabalho visa a analisar os novos espaços de consumo na área central de Anápolis, no Estado de Goiás a partir do comércio informal, uma vez que há uma interação entre os diversos espaços produzidos no meio urbano, contribuindo assim, para uma interpretação das práticas existentes na cidade. Nesta perspectiva, discutimos o uso e apropriação de algumas ruas no centro pelos camelôs e ambulantes, além do camelódromo e de um shopping popular que por sua vez comercializa produtos que são adquiridos pelas pessoas que circulam nesses espaços, levando-se em consideração o consumo que cria e recria uma realidade que vislumbra as formas e funções da e na cidade como o espetáculo da (re)produção do capital e como elementos articulados ao processo de (re)produção do espaço urbano em cidades de médio porte. Partimos da idéia de que o centro principal e tradicional redefine seus usos tomando como base as estratégias de localização das atividades ditas informais no seu interior, reafirmando a centralidade urbana expressa no contexto de relações preexistentes, visto que as singularidades das funções envolvem uma avaliação das novas formas de comercialização do setor terciário. Realizamos uma análise desenvolvida mediante o levantamento e revisão bibliográficos, pesquisa de campo e análise dos dados para a compreensão da dinâmica do centro da cidade de Anápolis a partir da atuação do comércio informal.
Abstract: This work seeks to analyze the new consumption spaces in the central area of Anápolis, in the state of Goiás starting from the informal trade, once there is an interaction among the several spaces produced in the urban way, so contributing, for an interpretation of the existent practices in the city. In this perspective, we discussed the use and appropriation of some streets in the center by the street-fakers and travelings besides the street-fakers place and a popular shoppings that for its time markets products that are acquired by the people that circulate in those spaces, being taken in consideration the consumption that creates and (re)creates a reality that shimmers the forms and functions of the and in the city as the show of the capital (re)production and as articulated elements to the process of (re)production of the urban space in medium load cities. We started of the idea that the main and traditional center redefine its uses, taking as base the location strategies of the said informal activities in this interior, reaffirming the centrality expressed in the context of the preexistents relationships, because the singularities of the functions involve an evaluation of the new commercialization ways of the tertiary sector. We accomplished an analysis developed by means of the rising and bibliographical revision, field research and data analysis for the understanding of Anápolis downtown dynamics starting from the informal trade performance.

As cidades médias têm sido objeto de recentes estudos devido a novas funcionalidades e papéis crescentes na rede urbana brasileira. Como nós da rede urbana, a compreensão da articulação entre cidades médias e centros urbanos de sua hinterlândia é de extrema importância, visto que o mercado consumidor das cidades médias analisadas é, em parte, constituído pela população do seu entorno. Preocupa-nos, também, compreender a centralidade a partir dos fluxos gerados pela oportunidade e/ou necessidade de consumo de bens e serviços advindas também de outras escalas. Em nossa pesquisa escolhemos Presidente Prudente-SP e São José do Rio Preto-SP pela importância econômica e comercial que elas possuem no contexto regional onde estão inseridas, atraindo novos empreendimentos como os shopping centers. Surge daí a necessidade de se considerar novos elementos à problematização da circulação, pois estes espaços de consumo influenciam de maneira notável os deslocamentos dos consumidores. Assim, este trabalho visa analisar a centralidade a partir dos deslocamentos com finalidade para o consumo em shopping centers, contribuindo para o entendimento de como esse fenômeno se dá em cidades médias que são referência regional num contexto de cidades de menor centralidade e porte, componentes das regiões administrativas de Presidente Prudente e São José do Rio Preto, Estado de São Paulo. A partir da análise dos seis shopping centers presentes nessas cidades médias, pudemos concluir que tais espaços de consumo se aproveitam da centralidade interurbana pré-existente, ao mesmo tempo que a potencializam.
Medium cities have been the subject of recent studies due to new features and growing roles in Brazilian urban network. As a node of the urban network, understanding the links between medium cities and towns of its hinterland it is of utmost importance, since the consumer market of medium-sized cities analyzed is partly constituted by its surrounding population. Also, we are concerned about understanding the centrality from the flows generated by the opportunity and/or need for consumer goods and services arising from other scales. In our research we chose Presidente Prudente-SP and São José do Rio PretoSP by the economic and commercial importance they have in the regional context in which they insert, attracting new enterprises such as shopping malls. There arises the need to consider new elements to the questioning of circulation, because these consumption spaces influence notably shifts consumer. This work aims to analyze the centrality from shifts with the purpose for consumption in shopping malls, contributing to the understanding of how this phenomenon occurs in medium cities that are regional reference in a smaller sized and centrality cities context, components of administrative regions of Presidente Prudente and São José do Rio Preto, São Paulo State. From the analysis of its 6 shopping malls in those medium cities, we concluded that such consumption spaces take advantage of pre-existing inter-urban centrality, while the leverage.

Student satisfaction and service quality are interrelated constructs that are associated with improving student retention. This research investigated the relationships between these constructs in the context of an institution of higher education as an information system and sought to reduce the dimensionality of what have traditionally been considered orthogonal factors of these constructs in order to produce a parsimonious model and survey instrument that may be useful in assessing and predicting overall student satisfaction and overall service quality. The methods of analysis used in this study are quantitative in nature and included the use of descriptive univariate, bivariate, and multivariate analyses; exploratory factor analysis to examine latent dimensions within the data; and multiple linear regressions to measure the predictive efficacy of combinations of variables with respect to overall student satisfaction and overall service quality. It was hypothesized that the statistical treatment of the data would show that some dimensions routinely collapse, leading to possible valuable theoretical implications.

Seguindo uma tendência mundial que caracteriza a fase pós-moderna, significativa parcela da população brasileira tem se lançado cada vez mais aos apelos do consumo/Consumismo, voltando-se não só para a satisfação das suas necessidades básicas, mas para a auto satisfação, auto realização e autoafirmação, oferecidas por uma infinidade de produtos que vão desde vestuários até as “parafernálias high-techs”, garantidos e amparados pelo fácil acesso aos espaços de consumo e toda uma trama alimentada pelo marketing e publicidade. Nesse ímpeto de comprar, as pessoas se põem em constante movimento, numa incessante busca pela satisfação. Ocupando, desse modo, os lugares e atuando sobre eles promovendo interferências e modificações. Pode-se dizer que muitos são os atores envolvidos direta ou indiretamente nessas alterações, contudo, nessa Tese, o objetivo mais geral é com certeza, o passo inicial na tentativa comprovar que o Consumo atua como força motriz para a modificação do espaço. Para tal constatação o objeto de análise escolhido foi o Shopping Boa Vista e o perímetro que abrange o conjunto de lojas e lojas de departamentos da Av. Conde da Boa Vista que possuem ligação com a dinâmica do Shopping, avaliando como o consumo contribui para tal dinâmica identificando, em primeiro lugar, quais os equipamentos instalados naquele logradouro que incentivam o Consumo e, em segundo lugar, como a relação equipamentos/consumo interferem na modificação do espaço, realizando assim um estudo de caso. O trabalho se concretizou a partir de pesquisa histórica, bibliográfica, levantamento de campo, entrevistas, questionários e análise de dados. Os principais resultados consistem na identificação de que o Shopping Boa Vista enquanto objeto simbólico do consumo foi capaz de alterar seu entorno, apesar da permanência dos espaços tradicionais, introduzindo novas dinâmicas no espaço, demonstrando que o Consumo funciona como força motriz para a modificação do espaço.
Following a worldwide trend that characterizes the postmodern phase, a significant portion of the brazilian population has launched increasingly to the calls of the consumption/Consumerism, turning not only to satisfy their basic needs, but for self satisfaction, self realization and statement, offered by a multitude of products ranging from clothing to the "paraphernalia high-techs", guaranteed and supported by easy access to spaces of consumption and a whole plot fueled by marketing and publicity. In this momentum buying, people are constantly moving, in a constant quest for satisfaction. Occupying thus the places and acting on them promoting interferences and modifications. It can be said that there are many actors involved directly or indirectly in these changes, however, in this Thesis, the more general goal is for sure, the initial step in an attempt to prove that the consumption acts as a driving force for the modification of the space. For this the object of analysis chosen was the Shopping Boa Vista and the perimeter that covers the set of shops and department stores from AV. Conde da Boa Vista that have connection with the dynamics of Shopping, assessing how the consumption contributes to such identifying dynamic, firstly, what the installed equipment in that public place which encourage the consumption and, secondly, as the equipment/consumer relationship interfere with the modification of the space, conducting a case study. The job came through from historical research, bibliographic field survey, interviews, questionnaires and data analysis. The main results consist in identifying the Shopping Boa Vista. While symbolic object of consumption was able to change his surroundings, despite the permanence of traditional spaces, introducing new dynamics in space, demonstrating that works as a driving force for the modification of the space.
