报告内容简介：

Building on the psychological ownership effect, the authors propose the endowment of status. That is, being an elite member creates a strong attachment or ownership of the status to the consumers. Then, losing the status due to customer demotion induces a sense of self-threat, given status as an important part of the self is endangered. In other words, the authors find self-threat as a new mechanism underlying the negative effect of customer demotion. Furthermore, given status is more central and important to high (vs. low) Power Distance Belief consumers’ self, the authors propose the negative effect is more pronounced among those consumers. Lastly, self-affirmation is identified as a boundary condition that the negative effect of customer demotion will be attenuated if self-affirmation is conducted.
