Global Versus Local Consumer Culture: Theory, Measurement, and Future Research Directions (2019, background): “First, it is explicitly grounded in the notion that consumer culture is about consumption of market-mediated products, services, images, lifestyles, and symbols (Arnould and Thompson 2005).”
Reconceptualizing brand identity in a dynamic environment (2013, background): “…2006); (3) Emerging research streams in marketing, such as the new service-dominant logic (Vargo & Lusch, 2004) and consumer culture theory (Arnould & Thompson, 2005; Brown et al., 2003; Grayson & Martinec, 2004; Holt, 2004; Schau & Journal of Business Research 66 (2013) 28–36 ☆ The…”
Inversions of service-dominant logic (2014, background): “Arguably, the most in-depth discussion of this structure and the corresponding heuristics (though not necessarily using this term) can be found in consumer culture theory (CCT) (e.g. Arnould and Thompson, 2005), with which S-D logic is increasingly being connected.”
Attachment–Aversion (AA) Model of Customer–Brand Relationships (2013, result): “Finally, this view of the customer– brand relationships is also consistent with that of consumer culture theory (CCT) proposed by Arnould and Thompson (2005) who argue that consumers use brands to construct their sense of identity.”
The Contentiousness of Markets: Politics, Social Movements, and Institutional Change in Markets (2010, background): “Consumer movements do not seek to simply regulate corporations but rather to produce a new sort of citizen-consumer with preferences and consumption habits independent of mainstream society (Holt 2002; Arnould & Thompson 2005).”
Reflexive Dispossession and the Self: Constructing a Processual Theory of Identity (2007, background): “As such, this study contributes to one of the key theoretical issues in consumer culture theory concerning the co-constitutive, co-productive processes in which consumers forge a coherent, if diversified and often fragmented sense of self (Arnould and Thompson 2005).”
Grief, commiseration, and consumption following the death of a celebrity (2012, background): “coping strategies and compensatory mechanisms in the process of revising their identity in light of this new reality (Arnould and Thompson 2005).”
Trying to prosume: toward a theory of consumers as co-creators of value (2008, result): “values, appear consistent with research on culture effects (e.g., Holt 1994, 1996) where one argument is that global values are too abstract to explain specific behaviors (see also Arnould and Thompson 2005 ).”
Borderlines: Skin, tattoos and consumer culture theory (2010, background): “In their re-imagining of consumer research, Arnould and Thompson (2005) contend that consumer culture theory (CCT) holds identity as a prime concern.”
