    Neural correlates of fanhood: The role of fan identity and team brand strength
    2024-01-08 - Biscaia, Rui; Baumeister, Roy F.; Chan, Hang-Yee; Duarte, Isabel C.; Castelo-Branco, Miguel; Cayolla, Ricardo
    Introduction: We analyzed the importance of fan identity and brand strength on fans’ neural reactions to different team-related stimuli. Methods: A total of 53 fMRI scans with fans of two professional sport teams were conducted. Following up on a previous study we focused on the differences between fandom levels as well as the contrast between two team “brand” strength. Neural responses were compared among individuals based on their levels of fan identity. In sum, group comparisons between relatively high and lower identity and between weak and strong teams were made based on the notion that the latter reflects team brand strength (strong brand and weak brand). Results: Findings indicate that brain activity in emotion regulation, memory, and cognitive control circuits is influenced by the relative level of fan identity. Discussion: Higher-level identified fans showed increased reactivity to positive stimuli and the under-recruitment of their cognitive appraisal circuits, suggesting more vulnerability to marketers’ messages. The strength of the team brand activates different neural mechanisms. Interestingly, the posterior cingulate showed larger recruitment both for weaker brands and lower fan identification, suggesting that visual memory processes are more active in these cases. Neurally processed content depends on the relative brand’s strength, highlighting the importance of brand-focused communications.

    Neural aspects of brand love
    2016-05 - Fetscherin, Marc; Duarte, Isabel C.; Castelo-Branco, Miguel; Cayolla, Ricardo
    Brand love has been identified as a key driver for behavioral outcomes such as brand loyalty, positive WOM or price premium. While we know a great deal about the psychological aspects of brand love, we know very little about the neural ones. The purpose of this paper is to explore this. We used a 3 (positive, negative, neutral video stimuli) x 2 (strong vs. weak brand) experimental design. To assess the neural aspects, 53 participants underwent fMRI scans while watching short video clips and rated them on a 7-point bipolar scale (-3 = very negative; +3 = very positive). Our results suggest a ‘negativity bias paradox’ in contradiction findings from psychology literature (based on attitudinal data) that negative events exert greater impact on consumer behavior than positive ones. We also find evidence for a ‘strong brand paradox’ with fans of the weaker brand showing greater neural activities than fans of the stronger brand which contradicts findings from consumer behavior research.
