What it measures

Three bipolar items measure how similar a consumer sees themselves to the typical person who prefers a particular brand. Lou, Tse, and Lwin (2019) borrowed the scale from Govers and Schoormans (2005), who developed it drawing on Sirgy et al.'s (1997) self-image congruity framework. The scale was used in Study 1 with U.S. (n=215) and Singaporean (n=388) women.
