Background
Gender is one of the most common segmentation criteria used by marketers. This makes sense, given that the male- female divide is “easy to identify, easy to access, and large enough to be profitable”
(Putrevu, 2001, p. 1)

Literature Review
Brand Commitment
Brand commitment is highly associated with brand loyalty (Kim et al., 2008); some argue that it is a necessary and sufficient condition for brand loyalty (e.g. Knox and Walker, 2001).

Literature Review
Hedonic Consumption
Hedonic consumption also has indirect effects on well- being, by improving consumers’ satisfaction within relevant life domains
(Zhong and Mitchell, 2010)

Literature Review
Impulse Buying
Consumers report that they feel better after an impulsive purchase (Rook, 1987), even experiencing a sense of being rewarded
(Hausman, 2000)

Gap
This is surprising, as today’s men have taken on many of the shopping obligations that women chiefly performed in the past
(Harnack et al., 1998)

Purpose of Study
The present study investigates gender differences in brand commitment, hedonic consumption, and impulse buying. We base our hypotheses on tenets from the field of evolutionary psychology, which over recent years has emerged as a valuable perspective for the study of consumer behavior
(Hantula, 2003; Miller, 2009; Saad, 2007)

Value
Gender differences in consumer behavior, though recognized as an important topic, have attracted only limited research attention. This paper helps fill that gap while incorporating an evolutionary viewpoint, which is emerging as a valuable theoretical perspective in the field of marketing

Gender difference in personality
In a large study of 26 cultures with 23,000 participants, women scored higher on neuroticism, agreeableness and warmth, while men scored higher on assertiveness (Costa et al., 2001)

Evolutionary explanation of gender difference
16
In such societies, the women gather fruits, tubers, and other edible resources in groups, on a daily basis. Men, on the other hand, hunt in groups approximately once a week, returning to the tribe with meat that is usually divided equally between all tribe families
(Marlowe, 2007)

Gender difference in consumer studies
17
Women put more time and effort into shopping for Christmas presents than men (Fischer and Arnold, 1990), and enjoy shopping in general more than men do (Rook and Hoch, 1985).
![Page 18: Presentation](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070304/54bd9b0d4a7959265d8b464c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Brand Commitment
A tendency toward risk taking, on the other hand, would have benefited ancestral men as they engaged in the competition for resources and mates
(Wilson and Daly, 1985)
Hypotheses1:
Women will report higher levels of brand commitment in comparison to men.

Hedonic Consumption
In fact, women report enjoying shopping more than men and are more likely to view it as a recreational pastime
(Kruger and Byker, 2009)
Hypotheses 2:Women will report higher levels of hedonic consumption in
comparison to men

Impulse Buying
Given the link between impulse buying and negative emotions (Silvera et al., 2008); (Verplanken et al., 2005), women may use impulse buying as a means to improve their mental state.
Hypotheses 3:Women will report higher levels of impulse buying in
comparison to men.

Questions
Questions Ranked their commitment on a Likert Scale
Q1:How committed they were to particular brands for three types of products(paper towel, breakfast cereal, and daily newspaper)
1(not at all committed) to 5(very committed)
Q2: What they would do if their preferred brand was not available when needed?
1 = happily buy a different brand, 2 = reluctantly buy a different brand, 3 = not buy the product until the next time you shopped, 4 = try a different shop, 5 = keep trying different shops until you got the brand you wanted.
Q3“I often buy things without thinking” and “I go shopping to be entertained”
1 (disagree) to 5 (agree)

Discussion
• The study results showed that in comparison to men, women had higher levels of brand commitment, hedonic consumption, and impulse buying.

Limitations of Study
Israel is a fairly westernized nation with a thriving consumer culture. Less relevant to other settings, such as less consumer-oriented cultures, or other groups of participants, such as older shoppers.
Women are more likely to engage in impulse buying.

Suggestions
►Could investigate different culture participants and also different ages.
►The number of participants should be equal.
