Abstract
The article presents the winning entry in the 2012 "International Journal of Market Research" Young Research Writer award competition, "‘Mirror, mirror on the wall, which brand is like me most of all?’ Integrating consumers into brand personality measurement." The paper is an empirical analysis of the influence of brand personality in consumer purchasing behavior, focusing on the question of whether consumers choose brands with personality traits similar to their own.
