In this paper we propose an alternative approach to conjoint analysis (CA) based on the principal component analysis onto a reference sub-space (PCAR). Following this technique, the results of a CA are considerably enriched by some graphical interpretation tools and optimal synthesis of the individu

Abstract
This article shows that consumer contexts can activate multidimensional associations that determine when accessible constructs influence judgment. Four experiments showed that exposure to consumer products (e.g., Ferrari) can activate constructs (e.g., expensive) that influence judgments of targets along that dimension, but only when an additional associated construct (e.g., foreign) matches features of the target (e.g., when the target is foreign). The effects were observed across multiple domains and held when exposure to the products was only incidental. The effects were moderated by the salience of the associated construct in the judgment target.

## Abstract Consumers may suppress their feelings toward the attractive looks of products when they wish to minimize the influence of feelings on their judgments and choices. However, this research suggests that feeling suppression may result in a paradoxical reliance on feelings in product judgmen
