2.2. Consumer shopping value
The transition from the cognition-affect-behavior perspective of consumer behavior to the experiential perspective involves a number of changes in how consumption is viewed. One of the most important changes is the shift from a purchasing outcome to an outcome of consumer value. However, earlier value studies emphasized product value with a focus on the trade-off between what is received versus what is given. This rational product- and purchase-oriented perspective of value fails to recognize the irrational and sensory elements of experiential consumption. Since the mid-1990s, some researchers have started to investigate consumer shopping value from shopping experiences. Much of the work has focused on defining shopping value and identifying specific dimensions of shopping value. Researchers have conceptualized consumer perceived shopping value from different perspectives and proposed: shopping trip value, shopping experience value, and store value.
