The concept of perceived value: a systematic review of the research

Sánchez-Fernández, Raquel, Iniesta-Bonillo, M. Ángeles·2007·Marketing Theory

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to present a systematic review of the extensive research that has been conducted on the conceptualization of perceived value. The major conclusions of the present study are: (i) that both uni-dimensional and multi-dimensional models of value have their roles to play in providing simplified (uni-dimensional) and complex (multi-dimensional) understandings of the concept; (ii) that the nature of perceived value is complex and multi-dimensional; (iii) that the concept of perceived value implies an interaction between a consumer and a product; (iv) that value is relative by virtue of its comparative, personal, and situational nature; and (v) that value is preferential, perceptual, and cognitive-affective in nature. By organizing and synthesizing the major research streams and the individual studies within them, the present study thus provides a comprehensive framework for future studies of the dimensionality of perceived value.

  • Utility theory holds that customers derive value according to the difference between the utility provided by buying a certain service and the disutility represented by the price paid or the sacrifices made.

    “This relationship is theoretically rooted in utility theory, which holds that customers derive value according to the difference between the utility provided by buying a certain service (or engaging in a certain activity) and the disutility represented by the price paid or the sacrifices made to attain the service (or engaging in that particular activity) (Sánchez-Fernández and Iniesta-Bonillo 200”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
